School Name
The name Mulgrave was selected for its singularity, strength, and a certain degree of serendipity. The school’s original site was close to Mulgrave Place in West Vancouver. The school subsequently developed a special relationship with the Earl of Mulgrave, Marques of Normandy. He has visited his namesake school on four occasions and was present at the official opening of the school in the fall of 2001.

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“But I am not tragically colored. There is no great sorrow dammed up in my soul, nor lurking behind my eyes. I do not mind at all. I do not belong to the sobbing school of negrohood who hold that nature somehow has given them a lowdown dirty deal.... No, I do not weep at the world—I am too busy sharpening my oyster knife.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1907–1960)
“[How] the young . . . can grow from the primitive to the civilized, from emotional anarchy to the disciplined freedom of maturity without losing the joy of spontaneity and the peace of self-honesty is a problem of education that no school and no culture have ever solved.”
—Leontine Young (20th century)
