The campus located in Shaker Heights serves kindergarten through eighth grade students, while the campus in Hunting Valley serves grades ninth through twelfth grade students. University School is a founding member of the International Boys' Schools Coalition and a member of the Center for the Study of Boys' and Girls' Lives and Cleveland Council of Independent Schools. ==History and Headmasters== In 1890 the founding Headmaster of the school, Newton M. Anderson, established University School. The school's first building was erected on at the corner of Hough Avenue and East 71st Street in Cleveland. At the turn of the century, Headmaster George D. Pettee led the entire student body to the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York, in 1901.〔 A few years later in 1908 Headmaster Harry S. Peters led University School during two World Wars, the Great Depression and, in 1926, to the campus in Shaker Heights. He was the longest-tenured headmaster in University School history; however, ended up leaving the school in 1947.〔 That same year Headmaster Harold L. Cruikshank oversaw the building of the Hanna Wing on the Shaker Campus and guided the school through the end of World War II to the beginning of the 1960s. Under the leadership of McKinley, the Upper School moved, in 1970, from Shaker Heights to nearly of meadows and woodland in Hunting Valley. Tragedy struck the school in 1966 when a junior student was attacked and had his long hair cut off by upperclassmen; he dropped out of the School and later committed suicide. The school drastically changed its disciplinary policies thereafter. In 1988, Headmaster Richard A. Hawley, an author and educator, became the sixth headmaster of US. With the support of the US community, Conway Hall on the Shaker Campus and the William S. Kilroy '43 Field House in Hunting Valley were built during Dr. Hawley's tenure.〔 After Dr. Hawley’s departure from the school in 2005, Stephen S. Murray became the seventh headmaster for University School. He led the School in the fundraising and construction of a nearly $100 million, 52,000 square-foot academic wing, which features spacious classrooms and interactive technology. Extensive renovation of the original classroom building has allowed for a state-of-the-art facilities for the visual and performing arts. After it was announced in August 2014 that Headmaster Stephen Murray would leave US to become the 13th Head Master of The Lawrenceville School in New Jersey, Benjamin I. Rein of the Collegiate School (Richmond, Virginia) assumed the position of Headmaster in mid-2015. 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「University School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
