Its Montessori preschool celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2013 and is one of a few schools in Greater Cincinnati to offer academic instruction to children as young as age two. Founded in 1890 by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, the school is now operated by an independent board of trustees. Originally only a school for girls, it has expanded over the years to include boys' enrollment and an athletic program. The school's signature (Character Education Program ) immerses students at each grade level in a yearlong reflection on one character trait, in the belief that school should not only educate the mind, but the whole person. In 2006, the average tuition was $13,000. Currently it enrolls about 1,200 students from pre-K through 12th grade. The Summit graduates 100% of its senior class and has a 100% college acceptance rate. Over 90% of graduates attend their first choice college. Summit's main building, designed by architect Edwin Forrest Durang, was first constructed in 1890, then renovated in 1930. In 1960 the school added a primary school building. The Upper School began admitting boys in 1973, and in 1996, along with renovations to all campus buildings and the construction of a new middle school building, combined the boys' and girls' middle schools. In 2003 Summit began another project at an estimated initial cost of $20 million to renovate many sections of the school, and build a new stadium, parking lot, and lower school. Headmaster Ed Tyrell retired in 2003 after 33 years of service to the Summit. Current Head of School is Mr. Rich Wilson.〔 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「Summit Country Day School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
