How Do You Define Honor?

“How do you define honor?” That’s one of four questions last year’s Lower School prefects posed to students in the Upper and Lower School about honor. According to 2020-21 Lower School Head Prefect Alex Acosta ’25, the students aimed to document the perspectives of students in every form in the Upper and Lower School—to see how answers vary from form to form, and from one’s own. Noted Acosta in his introduction: “This will be an interesting dive into the minds at St. Albans.”

Located in Washington D.C., St. Albans School is a private, all boys day and boarding school. For more than a century, St. Albans has offered a distinctive educational experience for young men in grades 4 through 12. While our students reach exceptional academic goals and exhibit first-rate athletic and artistic achievements, as an Episcopal school we place equal emphasis upon moral and spiritual education.
