Horace Mann School (New York City) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Horace Mann School
Horace Mann School (also known as Horace Mann or HM) is an independent college preparatory school in New York City, founded in 1887. Horace Mann is a member of the Ivy Preparatory School League, educating students from all across the New York tri-state area from nursery school to the twelfth grade. The Upper, Middle, and Lower Divisions are located in Riverdale, a neighborhood of the Bronx, while the Nursery School is located in Manhattan. The John Dorr Nature Laboratory, a campus in Washington Depot, Connecticut, serves as the school's outdoor and community education center. Tuition for the 2014–15 school year is $43,300 from nursery through twelfth grade, making it the second most expensive private school in New York City. ''Forbes'' magazine ranked Horace Mann as the second best preparatory school in the country in 2010. ==Motto and mascot== Horace Mann's motto is ''Magna est veritas et prævalet'', a Latin phrase meaning "Great is the truth, and it prevails". The phrase comes from the King James version of the Old Testament, whose contemporary translation is "Magna est veritas et ''prævalebit''," or ''will'' prevail. The school also remains steadfastly dedicated to five core values: The Life of the Mind, Mature Behavior, Mutual Respect, A Secure and Healthful Environment, and A Balance Between Individual Achievement & A Caring Community.〔(The Mission Statement of Horace Mann School )〕 The school mascot is a lion, possibly a holdover from the days when the school was associated with Columbia University, whose mascot is also a lion. The swimming and water polo teams have adopted the Sea Lion as their unofficial mascots, and the Varsity Ski Team has the Mountain Lion.
