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.

Famous quotes containing the words honor and/or code:
“While abroad, he met with a very salacious English woman, whose liberality retrieved his fortune, with several circumstances more to the honor of his vigor than his morals.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“Wise Draco comes, deep in the midnight roll
Of black artillery; he comes, though late;
In code corroborating Calvin’s creed
And cynic tyrannies of honest kings;
He comes, nor parlies; and the Town, redeemed,
Gives thanks devout; nor, being thankful, heeds
The grimy slur on the Republic’s faith implied,
Which holds that Man is naturally good,
And—more—is Nature’s Roman, never to be
scourged.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
