- Accept and respect themselves and others, and work together for the common good;
- Be responsible stewards of our natural environment and Kents Hill School’s community heritage;
- Embody the ideal that one person of principle can always make a difference.
Goals
- To create a stimulating academic community where students become life-long learners;
- To build each student’s confidence, leadership, and sense of self;
- To promote athletic competition and sportsmanship;
- To inspire creative expression and an appreciation for the arts;
- To encourage the community to value diversity, to accept differences, and to embrace a global perspective.
"Kents Hill is a community that I am excited for my daughters to join because I know that they will be surrounded by students who are inspired to reach their fullest potential, and by adults who are encouraging, supportive, and care deeply about them."
