Mulgrave Motto
The school motto, “Abeunt studia in mores” was penned by Sir Francis Bacon (1561–1626), a Renaissance scholar. Translated from the original Latin, the motto states that “Education becomes the manners, or virtues, of life,” a highly appropriate motto for Mulgrave School since it promotes values as an inherent part of its existence.

Famous quotes containing the word motto:
“My friend devotes himself to his life, whenever he can find the spare time. His motto is: ‘Don’t just sit there: live!’ So he’s too busy to stand, to walk, to do anything, except to live. He even refused to kiss a girl, when invited, on the grounds that it was time again to be living. Schedules are sacred to him.”
—Marvin Cohen, U.S. author and humorist. The Self-Devoted Friend, New Directions (1967)
