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 greatest impediments to changes in our traditional roles seem to lie not in the visible world of conscious intent, but in the murky realm of the unconscious mind.”
—Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)
“I never went near the Wellesley College chapel in my four years there, but I am still amazed at the amount of Christian charity that school stuck us all with, a kind of glazed politeness in the face of boredom and stupidity. Tolerance, in the worst sense of the word.... How marvelous it would have been to go to a women’s college that encouraged impoliteness, that rewarded aggression, that encouraged argument.”
—Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
