  • Diversity and Inclusion: We celebrate and respect the unique identities of all members of the community, championing an environment of inclusion.
  • Social Emotional Learning (SEL): We learn self-awareness, self-management, responsible decision-making, relationship skills and social awareness to nurture character and emotional wellbeing alongside academic growth.
  • Truth and Reconciliation: We acknowledge and honour the rich history, language, and culture of the Skwxwú7mesh and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations in whose territory Ross Road is situated. We include the local worldviews and perspectives to strengthen learning for all.
  • Creativity and Critical Thinking: We foster creativity, innovation, and critical thinking, empowering students to solve complex problems.
  • Environmental Stewardship: We actively promote and participate in conservation efforts and sustainable practices while acting in a responsible manner to protect the natural environment.
