St. George's Independent School was founded in 1959 and now has campuses in Collierville, Germantown, and Memphis, Tennessee. ==History== The school was started as an elementary school in the relatively affluent Memphis suburb of Germantown. Due to their success, parents asked for the addition of grades for a middle school and ultimately, high school. Through a number of turns, fortuitous grants from generous donors, and an unfortunate rift with the Episcopal Church, the school has expanded rapidly to its current three-campus configuration. The original elementary school still operates in Germantown. St. George's also partnered with Holy Trinity Episcopal Church to open an elementary school in an under-served section of Memphis, intending to model how an independent school could contribute to community transformation. They received a donation of land in the eastern Memphis suburb of Collierville, where they opened a middle and upper school campus that has rapidly grown. The Germantown campus (located at 8250 Poplar Avenue Germantown, TN 38138) was built in 1959, and is the oldest of the three campuses. It serves grades pre-kindergarten through fifth grade. The Memphis campus (located at 3749 Kimball Avenue Memphis, TN 38111) was the next to be founded, in 2001. It serves grades prekindergarten through fifth grade. The Collierville campus (located at 1880 Wolf River Blvd. Collierville, TN 38017) was founded in 2002, and serves grades six through 12. The Collierville campus has two wings, which divide the school into middle school (grades 6-8), and upper school (grades 9-12). The school runs on a trimester schedule, instead of the semester schedule. 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. George's Independent School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
