OurValues

We are a borderless, inclusive global learning ecosystem where the world is the true classroom and the most rewarding, important learning is through experience. We inspire the courageous to expand their curiosity for the benefit of themselves and all of us.

HTS is an inclusive learning network where learners are inspired to become their best self. By experiencing self-discovery and connection, learners can ignite, explore, and fulfill their curiosity because HTS knows that transforming lives transforms the world.

Compassion

Ours is a culture of respect and dignity, where we strive to walk in each other’s shoes.

COURAGE

HTS embraces openmindedness, fearlessly trying new things, and speaking your truth.

HTS learners are inspired by ideas and driven to know themselves, others, and the world. They embody the HTS belief that Curiosity changes everything—and when that curiosity is expanded, it leads to:

• A new, evolved perspective

• A greater sense of self in the context of others and the world

• Intellectual agility

• Ability to make meaningful change

• Creating with intention

• Development of character and values as the foundation to lifelong learning

HTS offers a world-class educational experience in every sense. But it’s the way we think about and build that experience — captured here in four fundamental approaches — that elevates it into the values-driven, character-shaping, personally transformational experience it has become for students from all walks of life.

BELONGING We’re not only open to who you are, we’re driven by you becoming it. With open access, opportunity, and advancement for every learner, HTS thrives on a diversity of perspectives and lived experiences as it strengthens our community.

CURATED EXPERIENCES One of the most powerful things you can do as learning professionals is to give agency and ownership over learning itself, its processes, pace and decisions, to our learners. This allows HTS to deliver intentional, curated experiences based on learners’ desires, strengths and curiosities.

COMPETENCIES FOR LIFE A diploma isn’t enough: We seek to nurture and instill the skills, knowledge and disposition that will guide our students in all aspects of their lives, here and beyond. So ingrained in our learning experience are the HTS Six Competencies for Life: communication, collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, character and citizenship.

AUTHENTIC LEARNING As the the next generation of world citizens, our students face having to navigate life’s complexities, detours, and interconnectedness on a much greater scale than ever before. It calls for a learning experience that leaves them agile and adaptable for today’s world – to gain multiple levels of knowledge, the ability to own a broad perspective, and the development of a critical mind.
