Our Core Values

Stellar Virtual has five core values that shape and define our organization’s culture across all programs and locations. Each establishes a shared sense of purpose and creates a cohesive environment where everyone can feel connected to the mission.

• Go the Extra Mile (Go): Customer Service is everyone’s job.

• Make Your Motion Matter (Make): Prioritize, focus, and support Stellar Virtual goals.

• Kids First, Always (Kids): Our actions, decisions, and behaviors are always grounded by those we serve, students and their families.

• Respect: Assume positive intent with our students, families, and colleagues.

• Create, Collaborate, & Communicate (the Cs): Demonstrate the skills we want our students to learn. 

We remember our values with this phrase: 
Go Make Kids Respect the Cs!

Our core values promote a culture of identity, safety, and trust. When a company consistently adheres to its values, it builds credibility with employees, customers, partners, and other stakeholders to anchor Stellar Virtual's long-term vision and strategic goals.

Stellar Virtual does not currently provide all employees or contractors with the necessary equipment (i.e., computers, internet service, telephone, home office setup, etc.) required for employment.
