Ashley Hall is an all-girls day school in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. It was founded in 1909 by Mary Vardrine McBee, who headed the institution for many years. It is the only girls' college-preparatory school in the state. Originally accepting boarding students, Ashley Hall transitioned to a day school in 1974. Students today number 650 strong and range in grade level from two-year-olds in pre-primary classes, to graduating seniors. Pre-school is the only part of Ashley Hall which admits boys. Ashley Hall has always been a mission-driven school. For more than 100 years the founding mission, ''To create educated women who are independent, ethically responsible and prepared to face the challenges of society with confidence,'' has commanded every stage of evolution of the school's educational program and its campus. The school motto is ''Possunt Quae Volunt'', or “Girls who have the will have the ability.” The previous motto was ''Possunt Qui Volunt,'' or “Those willing are able.” This is the masculine form of the phrase, which was not realized until 2003, when a junior AP Latin student suggested the revision. ==Students== The student population is 650. This number includes students from the age of 2 years to seniors in high school. Pre-school (ages 2–4) is coeducational, and from kindergarten through senior year the student body is made up of only girls. Ashley Hall is the only all-girls school in the state of South Carolina. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ashley Hall (school)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
