Honor Code in Action

Wonder how well McDonogh's honor code works? An Upper School student turned in a sum of money to the school office today after finding it the Allan Building. As it turns out, this money had been lost twice, first by its rightful owner on Halloween and a second time by another Upper School student who was headed to the office to turn it in.

Middle and Upper School students abide by an honor code, which demands honesty. If this lost money were a test of students’ honor, these two upper schoolers would have passed.
