• Character Is Woven Into All We Do.

  At Crescent, each student is celebrated for both his work and work ethic and guided on his journey to becoming a Man of Character. Character building happens in the classroom and in our numerous Character-in-Action co-curricular programs, with our faculty and staff actively engaged in the process.
  
  Each day, our faculty and staff model what it looks like to lead a values-based life. They forge powerful connections with our boys, making certain each student feels known, cared for and recognized as an individual. They serve as their mentors, establishing a meaningful relationship that is not only a precondition to the boys’ character development but also to their ongoing engagement in learning.

   

  Here are some examples of how our faculty and staff help shape student character:

  • Relational Teaching/Learning
  • Teacher/Student Mentoring Program
  • Extra Curricular Leadership/Mentoring
  • Community and International Outreach
