Confident

Confidence is instilled throughout a student’s years at Berkeley. We encourage our students to develop a positive sense of themselves – as readers, writers, speakers, scientists, artists and more. It is a self-assurance that will embolden them through their school years, and for the rest of their lives.

Stage Might

Public speaking skills are emphasized at Berkeley. Starting as early as Pre-K, our students are presenting in classrooms and performing on stages. They learn early on to be comfortable in front of an audience, developing poise, confidence and a bold sense of can-do.

The Write Stuff

All Berkeley students write – and they write often. In addition to classroom instruction, our Betty-Bruce Hoover Writing Center offers Middle and Upper Division students personalized guidance and one-on-one peer tutoring, helping them to become competent and confident writers.

A Place Of Honor

Walk down Berkeley’s hallways and you’ll notice something different from other schools – namely, most of the lockers are unlocked. It’s just one example of how our school’s Honor Code instills trust and confidence throughout our school community. Honesty, integrity and respect – these values transform our campus. They transform us.
