Broomfield Academy maintains a strong focus on character development, which includes a “core virtue of the month” program, regular age-appropriate community service and charitable involvement. Broomfield Academy's character and leadership development curriculum is based on work done by the Center for the Advancement of Ethics and Character at Boston University.

This core part of our program:

• Emphasizes universal values.

• Is integrated throughout the day.

• Is practiced through Student Code of Conduct.

• Promotes self-confidence, service to others, integrity and good citizenship.

At Broomfield Academy we see the formation of good character as an essential part of our educational mission. By good character we mean the development of positive habits, such as responsibility and respect, and a clear sense of what is right and what is wrong. We conceive of character education as a shared partnership among Broomfield Academy parents, teachers and students themselves. Broomfield Academy students are not only taught that the formation of their good character is an educational priority, but they learn how to actively craft their own characters. Further, good character is seen as both the key to academic leadership and the basis of leadership.
