LEADERSHIP: The Co-Curricular Program
Students learn leadership through the
intersection of academics, co-curricular
involvement, and extracurricular activities.
Every student is encouraged to engage
in all three aspects of leadership
education through the course of their
Norfolk Academy journey.

Norfolk Academy develops civic-minded,
socially aware and active leaders as an essential
component of our educational program.
Our approach is rooted in central tenets of the
school’s Statement of Philosophy and Objectives:
➤ To live by our conviction that sound moral
and spiritual values define the individual
in a more significant way than academic
achievement.

➤ To foster a sense of responsibility
for service to others, first through respect for self, and then for every other member of the
community until unselfishness of thought and action becomes habit.
➤ To promote the growth of a sense of responsibility by holding students accountable for their
own actions, and by insisting that they meet their obligations to others as well as to themselves.
➤ To develop responsible citizens by providing leadership training and opportunities for
participation in such community activities as government, business, and social services.
