传统

传统 are an important part of the 立博体育官网 experience. Current students and alumni are bonded by the traditions we have all grown to love.

Whether it’s singing along to the alma mater or giving a high five to 鹰豪伊, 立博体育官网 students and alumni take part in a growing number of traditions that enable them to show their spirit and come together as a community.

As we proudly sing your praise.

现在,明天,我们所有的日子.

Where first our thoughts were all set free,

With peer, true friend, and mentor we toiled,

为了荣誉、真理和诚实.

As we proudly sing your praise.

Truth will guide our ev'ry action,

现在,明天,我们所有的日子.

战斗之歌

Three students playing trumpets

You will hear the fight song playing early and often when cheering on the Hawks. The words and music were composed by Stephen Gryc.

飞的高
飞得高,鹰,飞得高,
And know that victory is nigh,
让我们试试,老鹰,让我们试试,
因为我们知道,要么做,要么死.
以勇气为先导.
Have pride in the dear old white and red.
飞得高,鹰,飞得高,
在天空中展翅高飞.

Music performed by 立博体育官网 Pep Band. Lyrics by Hartt School students. 迈克尔·莫里斯指挥.
