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:
“We’re for statehood. We want statehood because statehood means the protection of our farms and our fences; and it means schools for our children; and it means progress for the future.”
—Willis Goldbeck (1900–1979)
“In schools all over the world, little boys learn that their country is the greatest in the world, and the highest honor that could befall them would be to defend it heroically someday. The fact that empathy has traditionally been conditioned out of boys facilitates their obedience to leaders who order them to kill strangers.”
—Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 3 (1991)
