Values
Values:
In satisfaction surveys, parents routinely reference the Youngsville Academy values as one of the strengths of the school. We want students to grow up to be good, reliable, wholesome people.
In keeping with this, the school emphasizes "On FIRE Behavior."
Faculty, staff, students, and parents support and exemplify in conduct and expression the underlying principles of the YA values:
- Fortitude: fearlessness, courage, and strength in tackling every challenge;
- Integrity: manifesting the character of being trustworthy, honest, and of choosing to do the right things for the right reasons;
- Respect: demonstrating respect for all persons with courtesy, cooperation, and helpfulness; respecting the rules of the common life of the school; respecting all property with its correct use and upkeep; and
- Excellence: striving to do one's best in every situation/task.
Phoenix Pledge:
In addition to the Pledge of Allegiance, students begin their day with the Phoenix Pledge:
“Today I pledge to be a Phoenix on FIRE. I will meet every challenge with fortitude. I will act with integrity and honesty. I will respect everyone with courtesy and kindness. I will strive for excellence in everything I do. And to this I dedicate my day.”
