TCA CORE VALUES &
TITAN'S CREED
TITAN’S CREED: Parents may find the Titan’s Creed link posted in the left menu of this newsletter webpage.
TCA CORE VALUES: Core Values serve as a compass and guide for keeping TCA on its originally intended course in the present and future.
The Core Values are represented via parts of a tree: the Roots, Trunk, Branches, Leaves and Fruit.
ROOTS
We believe that all students should be educated in a way that equips them to be exemplary citizens.
- We will help students understand the relationships and limitations of the domains of science, philosophy, and religion.
- We value an education that instills traditional values through the study of quality, time-tested history and classical literature.
- We value an education that nurtures a passion for learning that will last a lifetime through the context of human relationships and a foundational knowledge base.
- We value an education that cultivates virtuous character including excellence with honor, moral courage, compassion and relational grace.
- We value an education that fosters rich creativity, complex analytical thinking, and discernment while exploring the marketplace of ideas.
