Honor Code
Students at Asheville School are expected to live by high ethical standards and to uphold an Honor Code. The Asheville School Honor Code states that no student will lie, cheat or steal, and they will report any student who does. When submitting any independent work, students "pledge" that they have adhered to the honor code. Students also constitute the majority of the Honor Council, the educational and disciplinary body which hears all violations of the Code.
