The guiding principle at Forest Hill is RESPECT - Respect for one's self, for others, and for our environment. Respect is demonstrated by our behaviour. To show respect, all behaviour must be safe, considerate and responsible. Leadership and character development characterize the active participants in our learning culture. We value a learning community and climate where everyone feels safe and welcome. We strive to uphold our shared ideals of academic excellence, intellectual growth, high standards of ethical awareness, equity, and partnerships Read more about Character Education
