Traditional School
According to BTMS, a "traditional school" is dedicated to scholarship, patriotism, courtesy, respect, responsibility, and citizenship. Some of the goals of a traditional school are for students to achieve "the highest possible competence in fundamental skills", in citizenship, and in moral and spiritual values; be responsible for personal behavior; and to embrace a spirit of individual achievement and competition.

Famous quotes containing the words traditional and/or school:
“The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.”
—Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
“While most of today’s jobs do not require great intelligence, they do require greater frustration tolerance, personal discipline, organization, management, and interpersonal skills than were required two decades and more ago. These are precisely the skills that many of the young people who are staying in school today, as opposed to two decades ago, lack.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
