St. Anne's-Belfield School is a co-educational, independent boarding and day school for pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The school is located on 〔(St. Anne's - Belfield School : About STAB )〕 in Charlottesville, Virginia, US, near the campus of the University of Virginia. ==History== The goal of its founders was to provide for their daughters the academic opportunities offered to their sons by the University of Virginia. In 1910 the Reverend Henry B. Lee, Rector of Christ Episcopal Church, persuaded his vestry to purchase the institute. Reopened as St. Anne's School, it became part of the Episcopal diocese system and continued at its downtown location until 1939, when it was moved to the present upper and middle school campus. In 1985 the school became independent of the diocese. Like St. Anne's, the coeducational elementary school's origins were downtown, where in 1911 Miss Nancy Gordon opened a primary school known first as Miss Nancy's and then as Stonefield. After her death, it was merged with University Country Day School (the Bellair School) and renamed The Belfield School in 1957. In 1975, after a five-year trial period, St. Anne's and Belfield officially merged. The school has an honor system ( “A student is not to lie, cheat or steal.”) and weekly chapel services. Service to the local community promotes the same awareness for social and global issues, as did rolling bandages for the war effort in the 1940s. 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「St. Anne's-Belfield School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
