Why a Values-Based WE begin and conclude each week in Grace Cathedral, one of San Francisco’s greatest landmarks, gathering as a community for Chapel. We listen to one another. We learn from one another. We sing with one another. Being in Chapel reinforces the idea that being together matters. Gathering to celebrate cultural heritages, honor different religious traditions, listen to different perspectives or sing a familiar Beatles tune, Chapel exemplifies and amplifies what a values- based education is all about: respect, empathy, curiosity, responsibility. Reinforcing these values in a specific space and during a specific time like Chapel signals that our actions match our aspirations. It’s one thing to talk about meaningful values and another to see them play out. This is what makes us different.
