Phrasing such as “known for its strong academic programs, personalized learning environment, and commitment to educating the whole person,” and “home to a vibrant student community rooted in Norbertine values such as service, reflection, and community life,” is promotional. (See also [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch#Puffery]]). Your username also implies that you have some affiliation with the school. In this case you should read the [[WP:COI|conflict of interest guideline]]. You should declare your affiliation if you have one, and are required to disclose if you have been paid to make these edits.
