Create+Fun+and+A+Little+Weirdness

**At Sigourney, We’re Always Creating Fun And A Little Weirdness!**
**One of the things that makes Sigourney different from a lot of other schools is that we value being fun and being a little weird. We don't want to become one of those schools that feels corporate and boring. We want to be able to laugh at ourselves. We look for both fun and humor in our daily work.** **This means that many things we do might be a little unconventional -- or else it wouldn't be a little weird. We're not looking for crazy or extreme weirdness though. We want just a touch of weirdness to make life more interesting and fun for everyone. We want the school to have a unique and memorable personality.** **Our school culture is what makes us successful, and in our culture, we celebrate and embrace our diversity and each person's individuality. We want people to express their personality in their work. To outsiders, that might come across as inconsistent or weird. But the consistency is in our belief that we function best when we can be ourselves. We want the weirdness in each of us to be expressed in our interactions with each other and in our work.** **One of the side effects of encouraging weirdness is that it encourages people to think outside the box and be more innovative. When you combine a little weirdness with making sure everyone is also having fun at work, it ends up being a win-win for everyone: Students are more engaged in the work that they do, and the school as a whole becomes more innovative.**
