Senior School
"The focus of the Senior School at St. Mildred's Lightbourn School is meeting the needs of girls as they grow through the physical, emotional and intellectual phases from Grade 7 to Grade 12. In a girl-focused supportive and challenging environment, students are encouraged to discover their passion as they learn about themselves and how they learn." --Head of School, Dorothy Byers

Famous quotes containing the words senior and/or school:
“I suffer whenever I see that common sight of a parent or senior imposing his opinion and way of thinking and being on a young soul to which they are totally unfit. Cannot we let people be themselves, and enjoy life in their own way? You are trying to make that man another you. One’s enough.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The first rule of education for me was discipline. Discipline is the keynote to learning. Discipline has been the great factor in my life. I discipline myself to do everything—getting up in the morning, walking, dancing, exercise. If you won’t have discipline, you won’t have a nation. We can’t have permissiveness. When someone comes in and says, “Oh, your room is so quiet,” I know I’ve been successful.”
—Rose Hoffman, U.S. public school third-grade teacher. As quoted in Working, book 8, by Studs Terkel (1973)
