Pride
We are a school with a lot to be proud of. Instilling pride in our students is important to me, and each day I am taken aback by how proud students are of Huxlow, of their peers and of themselves, as they experience success in all shapes and forms. Huxlow is an incredible school, where we pride ourselves on strong relationships with students, and where we aim to strive for excellence each day
