Burroughs strives to instill the joy of living through active learning, integrity, and service to others. We seek to cultivate an inclusive community that nurtures authentic learners who lead and inspire meaningful lives. At Burroughs we do so by loving and learning from our differences, embracing challenges and championing growth, fostering a culture of great expectations, teaching empathy and the power of service, and offering a balanced and broad experience. Faculty, parents, and students share a commitment to a liberal arts education that strikes a balance among academics, arts, athletics, and activities. We believe that the many dimensions of diversity, equity, and inclusivity are essential to excellence in education, and they are woven into the fabric of the Burroughs experience.

Diversity Mission Statement
|
|
|
|
The many dimensions of diversity, equity and inclusivity are essential to excellence in education. They are woven into the fundamental fabric of the Burroughs experience as we prepare students to fully engage in their communities and their world. We are committed to a diverse student body and faculty because we are keenly aware that the differences among us—including race, ethnicity, gender identity, religion, socio-economics, political thought, sexual orientation, family composition and individual talents and interests—are a large part of what makes us a strong and vibrant community. Faculty, staff, administration, Board of Trustees, students, parents/guardians and alumni actively contribute to this commitment.
