Universal Values
Nurture a City Neighbor's mindset.
Our universal values describe critical mindsets for learning, growing, and living a fulfilled life in our world. We want all City Neighbors graduates to embody these values and demonstrate these qualities in all they do. To that end, we focus on nurturing and developing these values in each student both inside and outside of pod.
