CORE VALUES: 1. Empowerment: Our community fosters a sense of forward, positive decision making, helping our students develop into leaders through making real choices based in their voices. By empowering them to design the world they want to live in, we assist them on their journey towards future success in college and careers. Jefferson Eagles move forward. CREATE 2. Responsiveness: Our community purposefully infuses expanded access points to learning in recognition of the fact that students of color have been miseducated and unfairly deprived of their right to a liberating education. By building both access and pathways to educational opportunities, we help build our students towards the best we can be. Jefferson Eagles pay attention. CONSIDER 3. Adaptability: Our community encourages students to take risks, learn from failure (“fail forward”), and design a better future using the tools they develop in our learning community. By helping all learners focus both inward and outward, we can transform ourselves and the systems that shape and define our experiences. Jefferson Eagles stay focused/don’t give up. GROW 4. Accountability: Our community takes responsibility for our behavior, both actively and passively. By holding each other accountable and repairing harm we may have caused, we recognize that each of us is more than the worst thing we have ever done. Jefferson Eagles fix their mistakes. ADJUST 5. Interconnectedness: Our community cultivates a positive community founded on trust, empathy, and mutual respect. By creating and implementing non-punitive but strong institutional supports, we ensure that individuals and the connections between them are strengthened as an outcome. Jefferson Eagles work with each other. COOPERATE
St. Stanislaus Kostka Church is an independent Catholic church building located in the city of St. Louis, Missouri, United States. Formerly a parish belonging to the Catholic Church, it was established in 1880 to serve the Polish community in the Archdiocese of St. Louis. It is considered to be the best example of the opulent Polish Cathedral style of architecture west of the Mississippi River.The church is notable for a highly publicized dispute over control of the parish and its assets between the church's lay board of directors and the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of St. Louis. In December 2005, Archbishop Raymond Leo Burke declared the parish's board members and its priest, Marek Bozek, excommunicated and announced his intention to disband the parish with the likelihood that the premises would be sold. The parish responded by holding a Christmas Eve Mass attended by 1,500-2,000 people. The church and the Archdiocese settled their legal dispute in 2013.The parish continues to be maintained and managed by its parishioners as a not-for-profit corporation, calling itself "Catholic", but unaffiliated with the Catholic Church.
