Administrators and students are very close. This
closeness creates a strong bond and trust between them. Students
open up their minds and hearts and express their worries to senior
administrators and to other students, who in turn assure and support
them. Every student in the school has the support of the extended
family of the Student Life Organization and the senior staff.

Each of our schools has students from many different
countries. This cultural diversity affords students the opportunity
of a better understanding of human nature and helps students to
develop an open mind. It shows students that the way they are
used to doing things is not necessarily "correct" and
that there are different ways of looking at things, whether these
are habits, food, clothes or values.
It is customary in our schools to have culture days in which students
of different nationalities bring into focus various aspects of
their culture. In our shrinking world, people who develop an understanding
of other cultures are more likely to be successful and happy than
people who limit their experience to their own parochial society
and habits.
