The American School for Diving Vision:
Create a school that follows the concepts of Olympism as a way to develop the
youth of the world.
The Olympic Charter states: Olympism is a philosophy of life, exalting and
combining in a balanced whole the qualities of body, will and mind. Blending
sport with culture and education, Olympism seeks to create a way of life based
on the joy found in effort, the educational value of good example and respect
for universal fundamental ethical principles. By definition: Olympism is not
a system; it is a state of mind: the most diverse educational forms may be
penetrated by it, and no one race or epoch can claim an exclusive monopoly of
it (De Coubertin, 1918: 55).
The vision behind this school's mission is to create Olympic champions, while at
the same time developing these students emotionally, ethically, and
intellectually. This vision is based on the belief that a wholly developed
person will be more successful in sport and in life than a student who has only
one facet polished, however brightly. All graduates of this new program will
bring pride to the school and to themselves as they contribute to society in a
range of successful and positive ways.
The American School for Diving has now announced the summer and fall schedules for the rest of 2012.
The summer schedule remains mainly untouched with two minor changes
including and open workout time friday evenings, while the Fall will bring more opportunities
for each group to increase the amout they train!.
