THE ANATOMY OF A SENTINEL: OUR CORE VALUES

Over the last two days, we’ve shared the "Why" and the "Where" of Mountain Ridge. Today, we’re talking about the "How." Our core values aren't just a list on a wall; they are the character traits we strive to live out every single time we step onto campus.

To be a Sentinel is to be S.T.R.O.N.G. It’s an acronym that defines our community:

  • Supportive – We lift each other up.

  • Teachable – We never stop growing.

  • Responsible – We own our actions.

  • Open-minded – We value different perspectives.

  • Nice – We lead with kindness.

  • Grit – We don't quit when things get tough.

When these six traits come together, we don’t just have a school—we have a powerhouse community. Whether you're in the classroom, on the field, or out in the world, remember what it means to rep the Ridge.
