Moorefield Girls High School is considered to be the female counterpart or 'sister school' of James Cook Boys Highschool, and has recently engaged in Prefect activities to organise a joint multicultural day. They are also thinking of other ways to make the two schools become engaged with other activities in the near future. In the past these two schools have conducted combined classes in senior years (Years 11 & 12), where students will go across to the other school to participate in classes. They have also worked together in Crossroads, a 25 hour personal development and health course for years 11–12 which was a compulsory part of the HSC.

Famous quotes containing the word schools:
“Universal suffrage should rest upon universal education. To this end, liberal and permanent provision should be made for the support of free schools by the State governments, and, if need be, supplemented by legitimate aid from national authority.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“If Jesus, or his likeness, should now visit the earth, what church of the many which now go by his name would he enter? Or, if tempted by curiosity, he should incline to look into all, which do you think would not shut the door in his face?... It seems to me ... that as one who loved peace, taught industry, equality, union, and love, one towards another, Jesus were he alive at this day, would recommend you to come out of your churches of faith, and to gather into schools of knowledge.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)
