Their Choice: Maimonides“‘Character’ is not just taught at

Maimonides; it’s constantly modeled and

reinforced. Teachers and coaches press us

to be a mensch, as much as a better writer

or pitcher. It’s awesome to ‘win one’ for

our sportsmanship—as well as our sports!”

—Dalya L., one of the 91 varsity athletes who helped Maimonides School win an MIAA

District Sportsmanship Award for 2009–10
