Putting Our Values Into Action
ASPIRE student-athletes and every ASPIRE staff member value cultural traditions and are committed to moral and ethical principles as they strive to apply core values each day to their lifestyles. Each member of the ASPIRE community pledges to put the foundational core values of ASPIRE Academy into action:
- Achievement Orientation – Establishing measurable objectives and far-reaching goals for which we actively accept personal and shared responsibility, holding ourselves and others accountable for their attainment.
- Synergy and Teamwork – Collaborating with others in a way where each individual participates in a variety of ways, supports the shared goals and vision of the larger group and is willing to help others in achieving a successful outcome.
- Professionalism – Modeling our behavior in each and every interaction with others in a way that reflects a strong commitment to best practice in the work that we do. Being responsible and accountable for our own actions and behavior and possessing a strong work ethic.
- Integrity & Transparency – Saying and doing what we say we will do, and communicating openly, honestly, and with clear purpose. Being our best and resisting pressures from others to do things we believe are wrong. Showing commitment, courage, and self-discipline. Being our true selves in all our interactions with others.
- Respect – Being courteous and polite, judging all people on their merits, being tolerant, appreciative and accepting of individual differences. Never abusing, demeaning, or mistreating anyone. Never using, manipulating, exploiting or taking advantage of others. Respecting the right of individuals to make decisions about their own lives.
- Pursuit of Excellence – Actively seeking out information and activities that will improve learning and that will bring continual improvement every day and in every way – physically in sport, mentally in school, socially in our daily interactions with others, and spiritually in our practice of our Islamic religion – doing our best every day and never giving up.
