WE ARE THE LOWER SCHOOL BY JENNIFER TURNER, EDITOR & INSTITUTIONAL WRITER
“We are the Lower School, and we live by the golden rule. We will always be friends, to the very, very end, At the Lower School of Ashley Hall!” –excerpted from the Lower School Song
STEPPING INSIDE PARDUE HALL, visitors are drawn to the LoDome, the bright,
enclosed courtyard at the heart of the building. On any given day, they will see multiple grades fully engaged in the space. Likely there will be a wellness class completing an activity at one end, girls diligently working on math problems near the stairwell, and children tucked into various nooks while reading. Amid the laughter and learning, one thought immediately comes to mind: This is a place where foundations matter.
