Latin for unconquerable, students and staff in this house are committed to excellence, equity, and determination from our original core value from the R.O.A.D which means respect, opportunity, achievement, and determination. The Invictus motto is veni, vedi, vici which means, I came, I saw, I conquered. In their crest, you will see a lion which symbolizes determination and the mindset of unconquerable. The wheel symbolizes the well known quote penned by poet, William Ernest Henley, “I am the captain of my ship, the master of my fate.” The seven spokes in the wheel represent the letters supported in this house. In the center of the wheel, you will see the symbol for servant leadership of a hand holding a plant. The meaning of the colors represented in the crest are platinum, representing the pinnacle which is the culmination or most successful point and black which is symbolic for strength. In all of the crests, you will see Rougher green as we may be in a house, but we are all one Rougher.
