Honor

The Honor Code is the cornerstone of the Webb community and student life.  It’s based on the belief that each individual must be self-governing according to the highest standards of honesty, integrity, respect and fairness.  These principles weave themselves throughout all areas of student life: academic, athletic, extracurricular, and residential.  This character education is driven by student leaders - the Honor Committee for boys, and the Honor Cabinet for girls.  Each group works to positively impact both the understanding of the schools’ standards of conduct as well as affect positive behavior in the student body.  In the event that a disciplinary process must begin, student leaders, in conjunction with school administration, faculty and staff, head up the proceedings, and issue a verdict to the Head of Schools.

The goal of the Honor Code is to create and uphold a standard of positive behavior that will support a mutually-supportive, trust-based community based on these core values of honor, service, and leadership.
