ALTRUISMO

Altruismo traces its origins to the rainforests of the Amazon, where a group of powerful Brazilians were given the name because of the Portuguese meaning behind it: “the Givers.”

This special group is known for striking a balance between bold strength and altruistic giving — a team that knows that real power comes not from looking out for yourself but from empowering others. They care deeply about lifting others up, but they also maintain a fiercely competitive spirit and pride. Historically, the House has been known for its smart and driven students, and Altruismo has produced more valedictorians per class to this day. Its members have been very involved in every club, committee, or activity that a school offers. Therefore, Altruismo takes great pride in being a cultivator of real leadership and instills a strong spirit within new members to grow into and live up to this legacy.

THE QUIVERING SNAKE

Heart

The heart sits at the top of
the crest because the heart is
where kindness, generosity,
and purity are born.

Diamond & Shield

The diamond on the shield, in the
center of the crest, represents the
importance of protecting others
with unity and wisdom.

Giver

"Altruismo" is Portuguese
for "altruism," or "the givers"
- and that is what we are
known for being!

Griffin

With the head of an eagle and the
courage of a lion, the griffin is one
of the most powerful of all animals
known for both strength and grace,
fierceness and nurturing.

Black

The color black represents prestige
and an elite quality, just like our
kids. We are a House filled with
talent, and we like to win.

Black is also the one color
that contains all other colors
- representing our goal of
empowering all others.
