| Norfolk Academy takes community service very seriously. The impetus for community service programs grows out of the school's mission and philosophy. Believing the highest good is service to others, the School has incorporated service programs into its curriculum at all levels. Each year the Academy's senior leadership adopts a school-wide theme. During the 2003-04 school year, the theme is "Honor and Renew."
