Within our Community...

• Everyone participates - everyone has a voice and we value the different ways that individuals contribute to the team.

• You are the driver of your own story - We meet students where they are at and center their perspectives, experiences, and stories.

• Black Lives Matter. We acknowledge that the construct of race disproportionally affects people who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color - We reflect, choose language and take action to ensure that anti-Blackness is not perpetuated in our community.

• Everybody sweeps. Everybody builds. We believe that all girls, boys, women, men, and people of all gender identities are able to use tools, build, clean and organize.

• We respect LGBTQIA+ people and we use language and actions that are respectful of all gender identities and sexual orientations.

• We value one another no matter where we come from, whether we are from different homes, neighborhoods, countries and/or economic backgrounds.

• We are all leaders and learners, no matter our race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, gender identity, class, learning style, age, abilities or differences.

In order to build a strong team and accomplish our goals, we agree to uphold these values. We will support one another by recognizing when this agreement is broken; whether on purpose or by accident, big or small; respectfully remind one another of this agreement; and recommit to these values. We may ALL hold each other accountable to these values or community rules.
