Ricks Institute

Student Handbook

Introduction

The world we live in today is changing every day. Thus, our education, which takes place in and out of the classroom setting, prepares students for a significant life in this changing world. Welcome to Ricks Institute, a leading educator of girls and boys for over a century. We are a school of rich traditions, where young people have been coming for generation to take advantage of our rigorous academic program and moral formation that stands on the pillars of discipline, student’s accountability and honesty.

At Ricks Institute, our goal is to cultivate in every student, under Christian principles, a high sense of honor and moral integrity, a deep respect for sound education, a full acceptance of responsibility, a love of excellence, and a yearning to be of service to others. We aim to help our students become leaders of and relevant contributors to society. We are committed to centering our efforts and resources on all students and promoting academic success and the maximum development of each individual through an integrative education of head, heart and hand.

This Student Handbook is intended to cultivate learning and responsible culture at Ricks Institute as we seek to actively foster goals of personal and social development and encourage students to participate fully in a responsible way.
