Profile of a Graduate

Geneva City Schools has spent a lot of time looking at what we value and what’s important to us as a school community, with a real emphasis on the skills and knowledge students need to have when they leave our halls and go out into the world. We used the results to develop a Profile of a Graduate for what a Geneva alum should be, including the key competencies we’d like them to have. We believe all of our graduates should be:
