Dr. Maggie Hunt
Welcome to Bayard Rustin High School. Whether you are joining our community for the first time or returning for another exciting year, we are grateful to partner with you in your student's educational journey.
At Rustin, our work is grounded in a simple but powerful belief. We believe every student can learn, every educator has the power to positively influence student success, and every student deserves access to meaningful learning experiences that build essential skills. We celebrate the unique strengths and experiences that make our students extraordinary, and we are committed to creating an environment where every student feels valued, respected, and supported.
Our community embraces high expectations and shared responsibility. Through collaboration, our teachers work together to ensure every Golden Knight has the opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed. Guided by the WCASD Portrait of a Graduate, we intentionally foster the qualities of adaptability, effective communication, empathy, problem solving, and personal responsibility that prepare students for success in an ever-changing world. We equip students with the knowledge, skills, and mindsets they need to thrive after high school, whether they pursue college, a career, military service, or another meaningful path.
Above all, Rustin is a place where relationships matter. We are connected by Golden Knight pride and a genuine commitment to caring for one another. When students, families, and staff work together with a shared purpose, extraordinary things happen. These values are reflected in our Golden Knight Creed, which serves as a daily reminder of who we strive to be as individuals and as a community.
A Golden Knight Is...
- Respectful of self, others, and our community.
- Confident in adapting and overcoming challenges.
- Involved in making our school stronger together.
- Responsible for actions and commitments.
- Accepting of all people, perspectives, and cultures.
- Engaged in learning, communicating, and solving problems.
Thank you for being part of the Rustin community. Together, we will continue building a school where every student is known, challenged, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.
Go Golden Knights!
