Most students live with a roommate, all within a dorm of 30 other boys, and six to eight faculty members. The Skills of Citizenship, being a responsible member of the community and taking part in group activities, are fundamental to the daily activities in each dorm. Being responsible for personal belongings, respecting the belongings of others and the school, and taking part in daily community service-oriented tasks help to develop awareness of citizenship.
Each student also takes part in daily routines, which are intended to promote the Skills of Healthy Living. Time is set aside for activities related to personal hygiene and students are given reasonable rising and bedtimes. Limits on food, electronics, and other items help students practice good habits within the dorm. Required attendance at meals reinforces good habits for regular, healthy nutrition. The structure of our dormitory routines, including the evening study halls, also supports the Skills of Organization and Time Management, which begin in the classroom.
