Honor Council

A community can live together only where the basic tenets of honor are the foundation of the community. These principles are instilled throughout the school. The purpose of the Honor Code is to create an atmosphere of trust, honesty and integrity with mutual respect among administration, faculty and students.

At the Honor Council assembly or upon entering Hilton Head Prep, every student implicitly acknowledges an understanding of and a willingness to support the honor system by symbolically signing the honor code.

The Honor Code reads: We, the members of this classroom community, pledge to uphold Hilton Head Prep’s Honor code in all aspects of our lives. We understand that the purpose of the Honor code is to create an atmosphere of trust, honesty and integrity with mutual respect among administration, faculty and students. When we value personal integrity and the integrity of the community, we act according to the principles of honorable behavior. We accept responsibility for our own actions and we refrain from stealing, lying, cheating, plagiarizing and vandalizing.
