Clarksville Academy is a private college-preparatory school in Clarksville, Tennessee, offering pre-kindergarten through grade 12. It focuses on a combination of academic and athletic excellence. The school has several sports teams with a cougar as their mascot. == History == On November 14, 1969, a group of parents met at the Farm Bureau Building in Clarksville, Tennessee, to discuss forming an independent school in the Clarksville area. The discussion produced three guiding principles for the creation of this new school: Low student-teacher ratio, well-qualified teachers, and a headmaster dedicated to the education and training of children. A second meeting was held on December 22, 1969. Floyd L. Brown was elected chairman of the steering committee and later as the first Chairman of the Board of Trustees. The third meeting was held on May 19, 1970 at which time K. L. Barton was introduced as the Academy's first Headmaster. Clarksville Academy opened its doors on August 31, 1970 for classes in grades one through nine. The campus expanded, adding four new buildings and a nearby sports complex in the year 2007. In August 2008, Clarksville Academy installed ActivClassroomss in a majority of the rooms to allow interactive learning with the students.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=7 January 2009 ) 〕 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「Clarksville Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
