Mission, Values & Strategic Plan

Castilleja School educates motivated young women to become confident thinkers and compassionate leaders with a sense of purpose to effect change in the world.

Our Values are Strong.

The 5 Cs


The pursuit of Castilleja’s mission is supported by a commitment to our core values, the 5Cs:

Courage, Conscience, Courtesy, Charity, and Character

The 5Cs guide students towards ethical Character development. Courage is fostered, and everyone is treated with Courtesy. Conscience propels us to do the right thing, and Charity means making sacrifices to ensure that everyone shares the same rights and privileges. Each and every student, through her Castilleja education, is poised to live her life according to the 5Cs.


Diversity & Inclusion


Each member of the Castilleja community is responsible for fostering an equitable, respectful, and just community.

Together, we commit to learning from diverse voices and experiences, and we aspire to engage our differences with courage, honesty, intellectual curiosity and respect. We believe this commitment to diversity and inclusion is essential to developing compassionate leaders.
