Tower Hill School Trustees’ Sportsmanship StatementThe Tower Hill Board of Trustees believes that athletic competition is an integral part of the educational and developmental process of our students and that many important lessons are taught through athletic experience. Therefore, athletics are a fundamental part of the total curriculum at Tower Hill, fulfilling out motto of “Multa Bene Facta,” Many Things Done Well. The objectives of coaches and teachers are identical: to help young people reach their fullest potential intellectually, emotionally, and physically. Accordingly, sportsmanship − the demonstration of appropriate conduct, honest rivalry and graceful acceptance of the outcome − is as important as the full development of athletic skills. Critical to these teachings is the expectation that our community, as well as our athletes, will demonstrate respect for everyone involved in athletic competition.
