HEREFORD’S 3 FOCI

We emphasize overall wellbeing through three integrated and interrelated foci.

MINDFULNESS

We seek to develop students’ sense of themselves and their overall welfare through mindfulness and reflection.

SOCIAL AWARENESS

We endeavor to support students social awareness through sustained dialogue on the values and beliefs that reflect our commonalities and differences.

SUSTAINABILITY

We work to protect our natural environment by using sustainable practices and learning about how to care for our earth responsibly.

Hereford is proud to be home to students from incredibly diverse backgrounds.

HEREFORD TRADITIONS

Hereford offers exciting and innovative programming throughout the year, including annual traditions and recurring events.

Some examples include:

Each fall, the Hereford community votes on a movie to screen on the Hereford Lawn and enjoy with the broader community. Sweet Treats food truck often makes a special appearance!

BLOOMFIELD CUP

Bloomfield Cup is our annual flag football tournament held each spring. For those less inclined to hit the field, the day is also filled with other fun activities including a BBQ.
