La Paz Community School students analyze, reflect upon, and continuously live the four Peace Practices. These practices are outlined in the uniform that they wear each day to school. The practices are the essence of La Paz education and it is expected that upon graduation, all students internalize and understand the complex meaning behind each “practice.”


Develop the self into a peaceful, lifelong learner by enhancing the physical and mental well-being through critical thinking and stretching my comfortable boundaries.


Cultivate peace between the family and community by spreading and sharing love and compassion.


Create peace within the community by preserving the environment and respecting the delicate balance between local and foreign cultures.


Spread peace throughout the world by communicating thoughts and ideas effectively, and actively listening to all perspectives.
