Middlesex School is a co-educational, non-sectarian, day and boarding independent secondary school for grades 9-12 located in Concord, Massachusetts. It was founded as an all-boys school in 1901 by a Roxbury Latin School alumnus, Frederick Winsor, who headed the school until 1937. Middlesex began admitting girls in 1974. The school is a member of the prestigious Independent School League and is one of five schools collectively known as St. Grottlesex. The school was named for the county Middlesex in which it stands. The campus was designed by the Olmsted Brothers architectural firm, and the firm Peabody and Stearns designed most of the main buildings. A recent addition is the Clay Centennial Center, completed in 2003, which hosts science and math classes as well as an observatory with an 18-inch research grade telescope. The school is 70% boarding students and 30% day students. In 2015-16, boarding students came from 25 states and 16 countries. The school accepted 18% of students who applied to enter in for 2015-2016. In that year, 30 percent of students received financial aid from a $5.0 million financial aid budget. == Campus and facilities == The Middlesex School campus is located in Concord, Massachusetts, about 20 miles outside of Boston.〔(About MX-- Bot generated title --> )〕 Most of the campus buildings are located around The Circle, a grassy field at the center of the school. There are four dorms for boys (Bryant-Paine, Clay, Robert-Winsor, and Atkins) and five dorms for girls (Higginson, Hallowell, LeBaron-Briggs, Kravis, and Peabody). There are two academic buildings: the Clay Centennial Center, constructed in 2003, and Eliot Hall, which also houses several administrative offices. The Theater puts on productions several times per year, houses the visual arts department, and hosts the twice-weekly all-school assemblies. The Warburg Library, besides housing Middlesex's collection of books and magazines, also contains classrooms and the Middlesex Archives. The music center is located in the basement of the library. The dining hall is located in Ware Hall, as well as more administrative offices and the student center. Many members of the faculty live on campus, either in dorms or in several faculty houses. At Middlesex, there are two turf fields for field hockey and lacrosse, four grass fields (for soccer and lacrosse), a wrestling room, a dance studio, a baseball diamond, eight outdoor tennis courts, eight squash courts, two basketball courts, an ice rink, a boathouse and large pond (Bateman's Pond) for crew, and a fitness center (the James Oates '65 Center). 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「Middlesex School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
