Our belief in the innate worth of each person and in the uniquely valuable heritage of every cultural group guides our practice as a multicultural community and our commitment to authentic personal relationships and peaceful resolution of conflict at Carolina Friends School and in our lives outside of School. Our learning community is built on our Quaker values: simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality, and stewardship (SPICES). In order to meet these goals, we believe in holding all of ourselves accountable to respecting the identities and experiences of all community members and maintaining a safe and welcoming community. We actively oppose and will address any actions and/or speech which demeans or discriminates based on race, ethnicity, religion, socioeconomic class, sexual orientation, gender, gender expression, or any other attributes of identity.
