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:

    “Well, for us, in history where goodness is a rare pearl, he who was good almost takes precedence over he who was great.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    “No event in American history is more misunderstood than the Vietnam War. It was misreported then, and it is misremembered now.”
    —Richard M. Nixon (b. 1913)

    “The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide.”
    —Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
