The curriculum inspires students to: • think critically and to communicate clearly; • understand various methods of intellectual inquiry and their connections to each other; • recognize the interconnections of learning; • work independently and in partnership with others; • develop a global perspective on cultural, social, political, and environmental issues; • appreciate the importance of beauty and grace in their lives; and • achieve distinction in accordance with their individual interests and talents. In these ways, students are prepared to seek knowledge for its own sake and to pursue further study at the finest colleges and universities. The development of character is a responsibility that rests with every member of the community. In classrooms, on playing fields, in residential houses, students grow in confidence and self-esteem, and are instilled with such fundamental values as honesty, integrity, teamwork, generosity, and compassion toward others. Choate Rosemary Hall also fosters community involvement and service as it prepares students to assume leadership roles in an ever-changing world. As part of its commitment to character formation, the School offers regular community-wide reflections on moral and spiritual issues, as well as exposure to various religious traditions. Choate Rosemary Hall attracts intellectually gifted and motivated students from diverse backgrounds whose commitment to serious study is enhanced in this personally supportive and academically challenging setting. On a campus that inspires a particular sensitivity to beauty, teachers – who share genuine respect and affection for young people – impart an enthusiasm for life and for learning. Choate Rosemary Hall is confident that its graduates will go forth from a school that values each of them for their particular talents and enthusiasms; that affirms the importance of personal integrity and a sense of self-worth; that inspires and nourishes joy in learning and love of truth; and that provides the intellectual stimulation to generate independent thought, confident expression, and a commitment to improve the welfare of others. CHOATE ROSEMARY HALL / 2021-2022 STUDENT HANDBOOK 3 STATEMENT OF CHARACTER Choate Rosemary Hall perceives character – the personal commitment to moral sensibility, to an informed conscience, to an expansive “heart,” and to exercising moral choices – as an integral part of who a person is. In all aspects of life at Choate Rosemary Hall, we attempt to nurture and promote the development of sound character. Among the elements of sound character that the School has identified as central to a person’s life and to our life as a community are: INTEGRITY Integrity means, at root, to be whole. We must each work toward self-knowledge, self-awareness; the beliefs and values that spring from this should be reflected in our behavior. Integrity requires honesty in our academic work and our personal lives; such honesty is crucial for nurturing individual relationships and a community of trust. As we build integrity, we must develop the ability to stand up for what is right. RESPECT Respect involves treating oneself and others with dignity. This includes the acceptance, perhaps even the celebration, of our differences. Respect also includes taking responsibility for our commitments to ourselves and to others, as well as treating all people in a fair, non- prejudicial manner. Respect should extend beyond the Choate community and characterize our interactions with all individuals. COMPASSION Compassion means having a true understanding of, and sympathy for, the condition and needs of others. This requires developing an awareness of what is happening in the lives of other people. Such awareness forms the foundation for, and encouragement of, acts of generosity and support for those in need. 4 CHOATE ROSEMARY HALL / 2021-2022 STUDENT HANDBOOK STATEMENT OF EXPECTATIONS At the heart of Choate Rosemary Hall is a culture defined by integrity, respect, and compassion. All members of the community have an obligation to know and uphold Choate’s values and strive to embody them in word and deed. We therefore expect that all members of the community

  • Committee on Trustees (COT) Governance Review May 2018 in a March 2017 Letter to the Community, PEA Shared That in Response to R
    Committee on Trustees (COT) Governance Review May 2018 In a March 2017 letter to the community, PEA shared that in response to recommendations made by Choate Hall & Stewart, the trustees would be “conducting a further governance review, via the Committee on Trustees, to research best practices in school governance and benchmark PEA against other institutions. Topics to be reviewed include the composition and culture of the Trustees, length of terms, ongoing Trustee education, and the structure and frequency of Trustee meetings. Actions taken as a result of this review will be shared with the community when completed.” We are providing an update of the work to date, as the review process is still ongoing. Governance at Phillips Exeter Academy lies with the Trustees. Drawing upon the expertise of a diverse body of alumni volunteers, the Trustees oversee the administration of the school and the management of its financial and physical resources. The Trustees work closely with the principal and administrators, who lead the day-to-day operations of the Academy, and with the faculty, who focus on matters related to the curriculum and the student experience. While each group has its own role and responsibilities, all of us work together informed by a collaborative spirit and a shared passion for Exeter’s educational mission, a belief in the potential for transformation and discovery within all of our students, and a vision for Exeter’s ongoing excellence and leadership in secondary school education. Over the course of the past year, the COT has reviewed best practices, shared and compared governance structures with the members of the Eight Schools Association (Andover, Choate Rosemary Hall, Deerfield, Hotchkiss, Lawrenceville, Northfield Mount Hermon, St.
