Charterhouse School - School Terms

School Terms

There are three academic terms (known as Quarters) in the year,

  • The Oration Quarter (OQ), from early September to mid December.
  • The Long Quarter (LQ), from mid January to late March. Therefore, it traditionally had the distinction of being the shortest third of the school year, despite its name.
  • The Cricket Quarter (CQ), from late April to late June or early July.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or terms:

    “And so they have left us feeling tired and old.
    They never cared for school anyway.
    And they have left us with the things pinned on the bulletin board.
    And the night, the endless, muggy night that is invading our school.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “... the constructive power of an image is not measured in terms of its truth, but of the love it inspires.”
    —Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 1, ch. 15 (1962)
