SHARK Culture

SHARK Culture @ Dock Street

At Dock Street School for STEAM Studies, our culture is rooted in our SHARK values: Self-Awareness, Honesty, Accountability, Resilience, and Kindness. These values guide how we learn, lead, and interact every day.

We are committed to building a student-centered, inclusive, and restorative school community where every student feels seen, valued, and supported. Our students are encouraged to reflect on their actions, take ownership of their growth, persevere through challenges, and treat others with respect and compassion.

SHARK culture lives in every classroom and shared space through:

• Strong relationships and community building
• Student voice and leadership opportunities
• High academic expectations with meaningful support
• Restorative practices that promote accountability and growth

At Dock Street, we don’t just talk about our values—we live them.

Once a SHARK, Always a SHARK.
