Our Core Value History
The Buckley School has a long history and has adopted many guideposts along the way. Together they tell a story about our core values.

Portrait of a Graduate
2020 | Portrait of a Graduate: Architect of the Future
During the 2020-2021 school year, the Buckley community developed the next iteration of core values, our portrait of a graduate: Architect of the Future.
The Portrait of a Graduate represents our shared vision and understanding of the specific skills students will need to thrive in the future.
"We have been so impressed by the warmth, dedication, and care demonstrated by every teacher and staff member. The emphasis on character-building, respect for others, and the encouragement of creativity and exploration has not only shaped our children academically, but also helped instill values that will last a lifetime."
