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.
