Lakeside School - History

History

Lakeside School was founded in 1914 by Frank Moran as the Moran School on Bainbridge Island. In 1919, it moved to the waterfront Denny-Blaine neighborhood of Seattle and became the Moran-Lakeside School. In 1923 it moved to the present site of The Bush School in Washington Park and changed its name to the Lakeside Day School for Younger Boys soon thereafter. A few years later, Lakeside moved to its present location. It became coeducational upon merger with St. Nicholas, a Capitol Hill girls' school, in 1971.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more
    John Adams (1735–1826)

    All things are moral. That soul, which within us is a sentiment, outside of us is a law. We feel its inspiration; out there in history we can see its fatal strength.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    No one can understand Paris and its history who does not understand that its fierceness is the balance and justification of its frivolity. It is called a city of pleasure; but it may also very specially be called a city of pain. The crown of roses is also a crown of thorns. Its people are too prone to hurt others, but quite ready also to hurt themselves. They are martyrs for religion, they are martyrs for irreligion; they are even martyrs for immorality.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
