St. Mary's Springs Academy (SMS, formerly St. Mary's Springs High School) is a private Catholic, coeducational, college prep high school in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin owned by the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. It was founded by the Sisters of Saint Agnes in 1909. The three pillars of the school are Faith, Knowledge, and Community. ==History== The Sisters of Saint Agnes came to the site of the school in 1901 to open a sanitarium after money was donated by local businessman Henry Boyle. The first building built on the site, Boyle Hall, was named in his honor. Constructed in 1901, it was torn down in 2005 because of structural problems, after having sat vacant for nearly 25 years. This building and St. Agnes Hall, located to the left of Boyle Hall, were used as a sanitarium until 1909 when the site was changed into a boarding school for girls. The school held its first graduation in 1911. Though run by the Sisters of St. Agnes, it became affiliated with The Catholic University of America in 1915 and then became known as St. Mary's Springs Academy. The main building, now known as the Administration Building, was constructed in 1928, but has been unused since 2000 because of small class sizes and asbestos found in the building. In 1939, St. Mary's Springs Academy revised its mission and opened its doors to young men. In 1970, the school's name was changed to St. Mary's Springs High School after receiving sponsorship from the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. The current academic building was also built about this time. In 2008, St. Mary's Springs High School was merged with FACES (Fond du Lac Area Catholic Education System) to form a K-12 system. FACES consisted of two campuses, St. Joseph's Primary School and St. Mary's Middle School. The three campuses now operate under the name of St. Mary's Springs Academy. April 22, 2015 officially marked the beginning on the construction of St. Mary's Springs Academy's new Preschool - 8th grade addition to the current standing SMSA High School and the started phase 1 of a process to renew and reinvigorate Catholic Education in Fond du Lac, WI. The new campus building is scheduled to be opened and ready for the 2016-2017 school year. 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. Mary's Springs Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
