District
W-L adopted a number of W&L University traditions, such as the honor code, the generals mascot, the nickname (pronounced “WnL”), and the school seal. The new Washington-Liberty school seal is inspired by the original design. The W-L letterform logos continue to be used for the school’s letter jackets, other school sponsored attire, and in print material. Students and teachers participated in the adoption of the updated school colors and logos in 2019. The school’s pep songs are usually accompanied by the band during the home football games. The alma mater is played at graduation.

Oh may thy guiding hand Be ever our command; Show us thy truth and thy way.As time now moves each hour proves How strong our bond has grown. And through each year we hold so dear The memories we own.(chorus) Washington-Lee, Washington-Lee, Humbly for thee do we pray. Oh may thy guiding hand Be ever our command; Show us thy truth and thy way. | Ever we our voices raise To the Blue and Gray. In our hearts a song of praise To cheer you on the way. Ever shall our anthem swell For the Blue and Gray. Ever in our hearts will dwell A faith we’ll never betray. Hail the name you proudly bear, Washington and Lee. Humbly now we raise our pray’r, Now ’til Eternity. Honor on thy name bestow, Washington and Lee. In our hearts with radiant glow Shall live our loyalty. |
