Core Values
Integrated Humans
Thriving people learn to integrate the intellectual, the physical, the spiritual, and the emotional through an examination of the place of each, discernment about their relative role, and a commitment to balance and flourishing.
Hopeful Faculty
We prize faculty who believe resiliently, optimistically, and with good humor in the students and faculty’s collective ability to grow and learn; know their discipline and practice, and understand character development. A faculty oriented around these principles will earn the confidence of students and create a place of purpose and fun where faculty and students want to be.
Learning Ecosystem
Thriving communities recognize the interdependent nature of their parts. Therefore, The Frederick Gunn School is a school that champions the interdisciplinary and inter-experiential nature of life and learning - one that incorporates the outdoors, athletics, and arts, as well as academics, into everyday life.
Moral Character Development
We are a school that nurtures Mr. Gunn’s belief in character as the driving force in a life well-lived, and that character emerges through the intentional pursuit—in knowledge and practice—of what is good, right, true, sustainable, and beautiful.
Engaged Citizens
The Frederick Gunn School is a school that, despite growing cultural apathy, cynicism, consumerism, and distraction produce people who care deeply - who become wise, engaged, active citizens.
