At University Liggett School, we believe that a strong community is built on character. The Center for Community, Character, and Core Values (CCCCV) is dedicated to fostering a culture of respect, leadership, and inclusion at University Liggett School. Through meaningful programs, student-led initiatives, and service-learning opportunities, CCCCV ensures every student feels valued and empowered to thrive. Rooted in our Core Values and the Liggett Approach, it integrates academic inquiry with character development, creating a learning environment where diverse perspectives are embraced and ethical leadership is cultivated.
“From my time as a student through today, I have always valued the respect Liggett has for our students’ voices, the ways we nurture students to share those voices, the warmth of the community, and the myriad opportunities to achieve excellence.”
Becky G. ‘95, Lower School Librarian, parent to Reagan ‘29 and Emerson ‘31
