Glen Urquhart School’s mission is to inspire and empower young people, through joyful learning, to be stewards of the world around them.
We encourage students to be curious, to be open to a wide range of perspectives, and to act responsibly and respectfully in the world. We teach them how to think and make educated conclusions - not what to think. Therefore, in partnership with the Board of Trustees, we have established the following guiding principles on public statements:
GUS will only issue an official statement in response to societal events that either have a direct impact on our school community or on our ability to deliver on our mission and vision.
In the case that a societal event directly impacts our community, we will work quickly to provide support, whether through resources or educational programming, to our students, faculty, staff, and families. This information may not always be shared widely or publicly.
GUS will only respond publicly if our voice will add depth to the conversation, and will only respond publicly after having taking responsive action.

If you have any questions about our principles on public statements, please contact press@gus.org.
