Mission and Philosophy
Tower Hill School was founded in 1919, and has an over 100-year legacy as a national leader in education.
Mission
Tower Hill School prepares students from diverse backgrounds for full engagement with a dynamic world. Each student is provided with an educational experience that emphasizes the development of an inquisitive, discerning and critical mind; the value of being creative and aesthetically sensitive; the appreciation of physical well being; the ability to collaborate and to function as part of a team; and the growth of character.
Philosophy
By combining personal challenge with individual support, Tower Hill is a college-preparatory school committed to building in students a foundation for lifelong learning. Tower Hill believes that diversity in all aspects of school life broadens and enhances the educational experience. In keeping with our motto Multa Bene Facta—Many Things Done Well—the school provides a rigorous and exhilarating program, engaging students in a variety of educational endeavors, while allowing them to develop their individual strengths and pursue their passions.
To emphasize our core values—active citizenship, personal integrity, collective responsibility, team building and collaboration, and mutual respect—Tower Hill encourages each student to develop a sense of personal worth and to recognize, understand and accept the differences of others.
