CHAPEL

A boy entering the School becomes a member of a community living according to the general pattern of a Christian family. Its

ideal of conduct is mutual trust and love, simplicity of life, and the sharing of responsibilities and opportunities. This idea is expressed and nurtured by the School's religious life, which centres in the Chapel.

In the Chapel, which is a large room in the Main Building with pew accommodations for over two hundred, a short service is held every evening, Monday through Friday. On Sundays and Holy

Days there is an early celebration of Holy Communion, and on Sundays, except the first Sunday of each month, a late Service of Morning Prayer and sermon. The School is in the Parish of St. Anne's, Middletown, founded 1705, of which Rev. Kenneth Clarke is Rector.

The Vestry of the Chapel is elected from among the boys, and acts as the representative council of the student body. There are also a student Choir, Altar Guild, and Acolytes' Guild. Members of the Sixth Form read the lessons at Evening Prayer. The ladies of the School community maintain an active branch of the Woman's Auxiliary.

St. Andrew's is the Diocesan School of the Diocese of Delaware. In addition to the regular Sacred Studies classes, special instruc­

tion for Confirmation is given to those desiring it. The Bishop of Delaware visits the School in the winter for Confirmation, but boys expecting to be confirmed in their home churches will gladly be given preparation at School if their parents and rectors so request.

PROPERTY

The School buildings are located on a point overlooking Noxon­town Pond, two miles from the center of Middletown, twenty-five miles south of Wilmington, and about sixty miles from Philadelphia. The surrounding country is rich farm land, of many historic asso­ciations with Colonial Delaware and Revolutionary times.

The main building, a modern fireproof unit, provides complete accommodations for a hundred and seventeen boys. The younger boys sleep in cubicles in open dormitories, the older boys in double rooms. There are also the Headmaster's House, eight masters' houses, two three-family apartment houses, the Gymnasium, two boat houses, a Laundry Building, and a Maintenance Building. The Gym­nasium houses a large basketball floor, a wrestling room, four squash courts, a rowing machine room, four small dormitories housing approximately thirty boys, and locker and shower accommodations for the whole School.

The property comprises three hundred and fifty acres, most of which is under cultivation. On one edge the property is bounded by Noxontown Pond, which is two miles long, and on another by Silver Lake, three-quarters of a mile in length. The entire property is posted as a State game refuge for birds and animals.

On the School grounds are five football fields, two baseball dia­monds, and six tennis courts. The School has its own piers on Noxontown Pond. The waters of this lake are well known fishing grounds and provide good swimming and sailing. They are suited to rowing, which has been conducted on an organized scale since

1932. Besides the School plant there is the Farm, operated by the

School as a separate unit. It includes a large farm house, a mod­ern cow barn and horse stable, and numerous farm buildings. With its herd and stables and nearly three hundred acres available for cultivation the Farm contributes largely to the School in food

and has facilities for horseback riding.

HEALTH

On the third floor of the main building are a large Infirmary,

9

Page 14: ST. ANDREW'S SCHOOLlibraryarchives.standrews-de.org/sites/default/... · Oberlin Conservatory, Curtis Institute CHESTER EARLE BAUM, JR., A.M. IN T. St. Andrew's School, Haverford

an office, and the quarters for the resident nurses. There is no Infirmary charge but each boy will be charged an actual cost fee for materials or medicines used.

It ,is imperative that each new boy present a School Medical Certificate filled out by his private physician in conjunction with his parents or guardian before entering the school. The visiting physician in charge is Dr. Walter E. Lee of Middletown, whose office is equipped with x-ray, cardiograph, fluoroscope, laboratory, and other modern equipment. Wilmington hospitals and special­ists are accessible if needed. The Head Nurse, with her assistant, attempts to keep all boys at the highest possible health level. A vigilant watch is kept on the health of each boy, the object being prevention of illness. The Head Nurse, or her assistant, is on call 24 hours each day and at all times works under the direction of the physician in charge.

W. S. P. Combs, D.D.S. of Middletown is available for emergency dental work. Each boy is expected to have routine dental work

attended to before coming to school or during vacations.

ENTERTAINMENT

At times during the year entertainments are given by the boys themselves. The Criss-Cross Club, the School dramatic society, presents at least one play and sponsors other plays and entertain­ments each year.

Illustrated lectures and recitals are given by visiting artists, and every Saturday evening there is a feature-length motion picture or other entertainment at the School.

A spacious auditorium was completed in 1941 and is used for entertainment programs and the School's visual education program. During the spring term the School Band presents concerts in the auditorium and occasionally furnishes dinner music in the main dining room.

The boys are welcomed in the homes of members of the faculty. Enjoyable features of the winter and spring terms are dances

given by the upper forms and attended by the boys and their guests. Other informal Saturday night dances are given once or twice a term.

ATHLETICS AND RECREATION

All boys are expected to take part in the organized sports in season and to be outdoors every afternoon except when the regular squads practice in the Gymnasium. The coaching is done entirely by the masters; careful attention is given to the lower teams and to the less proficient players as well as to the "varsity" teams.

The School is a member of the Inter-state Academic Conference and participates in inter-scholastic "varsity" contests with the other member schools.

In the fall all boys play football, unless excused for medical reasons by doctors' orders. The older boys' squads play inter­scholastic games, and the younger boys, intra-mural series. After the football season, there are soccer, touch-football, riding, and for those who elect the work, woodchopping and other general service jobs.

In the winter there are organized teams in basketball, wrestling, and squash. Whenever possible, there are skating, hockey and ice­boating on an informal but supervised basis. Facilities are provided for shuffle-board, deck tennis, badminton, volley ball and ping-pong.

In the spring there are baseball, crew, and tennis squads. Track, golf, sailing, and riding are offered on an informal basis. The row­ing equipment includes four-oared shells and gigs in which the "varsity" participates in outside races, eight-oared shells, pair-oared gigs, doubles and singles, which are used for training and intra­mural contests. A coaching launch is used whenever the crews are on the water.

The St. Andrew's School Yacht Club is a member of the Inter­scholastic Yacht Racing Association, and participates in the annual regattas of that organization. Recreational sailing and practice races are held on Noxontown Pond throughout the spring, using the sailing dinghy and "Blue Jays", which are school owned and cared for by the Yacht Club.

In all athletics the emphasis is on the development of sportsman­ship and the enjoyment of the game as much as on the acquiring

of skill, strength, and endurance.

JOB SYSTEM

It is the aim of the School to instill a sense of pride in a task well done, as well as to keep its life simple and economical. This is achieved in great part by the boys assuming much of the care of grounds and buildings, their own rooms, and the service of pantry and dining-room.

The work is divided equally and jobs are changed every third week of term. The time thus consumed averages about thirty minutes daily. Supervision and inspection of jobs are carried on by the Sixth Form under the general direction of a faculty mem­ber. Training in supervision is accomplished by rotation of Fifth Formers as supervisors on Saturdays.

THE LIBRARY

The Library plays an important part in the intellectual and recreational activities of the School. Open at all times except during Chapel services, it is supervised by a trained librarian with the assistance of a volunteer staff of boys selected from all forms.

The Library houses a well-balanced collection of more than 5000 volumes, including an adequate reference section. It also provides about 35 selected periodicals and four daily newspapers. Phono­graph records, pictures, and other essential audio-visual materials are maintained and circulated. An annual budget assures constant acquisition of new books and other materials.

DISCIPLINE

The School goes on the assumption that It IS as important to reward good conduct as to penalize bad conduct. Disciplinary policies and procedures are worked out by a committee composed of faculty members and boys. The good order and morale of the School are regarded as a responsibility of both groups. The dis­cipline system is predicated on the maximum assumption of re­sponsibility and initiative on the part of the individual boy. Rou­tine punishments are avoided wherever possible in favor of posi­tive, constructive, on the spot corrections of irregularities. Faculty

Advisors are expected to assist boys in developing the will and ability to discharge their full social obligation as members of the school community.

CURRICULUM

As a Church school and as a college preparatory school, St. An­drew's believes that each student should be equipped intellectually, morally, and spiritually to meet the challenge of higher education successfully and profitably, and while emphasis is necessarily di­rected to mastery of basic subjects, the curriculum is designed to stimulate and broaden as well.

The course of study is a five-year college preparatory course, beginning with the Second Form, which corresponds roughly with the eighth grade.

To graduate, a boy must earn fifteen units-three in English, three in mathematics, two in a foreign language, and one each in American history and a laboratory science. The remaining five units are elective.

Courses are listed by form, but boys may take classes out of form when previous preparation, college requirements, or personal pref­erence make it desirable. The School reserves the right to place a boy forward or back as his best interests require. An outline of the course of study follows:

THE SECOND FORM COURSE INCLUDES:

Sacred Studies Arithmetic and Algebra English General Science Beginning Latin How to Study (Fall Term) Music, Art, Manual Training Geography

THE THIRD FORM COURSE INCLUDES:

Sacred Studies Elementary Algebra ( 1 credit) English Biology (elective, 1 credit) Latin (elective, 1 cred.it) . Music (elective) .. . Ancient History (electIve, 1 credIt) Art or Manual Trammg (electI"Je)

A detailed description of each course is given on pages 15-20.

With classes averaging about ten boys, individual attention is assured. Any boy in temporary academic difficulties may receive special help, though this help may not be extended to become pro­longed tutoring. A course in How to Study is given to all Second Formers, and a limited course in Remedial Reading is offered to all boys needing it.

All scheduled study periods are ordinarily supervised by a master, but because the School believes that every boy must learn to study effectively on his own, older boys and those who maintain certain academic standards are permitted to study without supervision.

Reports are sent home six times a year, and interim grades are issued to the School in the intervals between reports. Grades are reported in percentages, with eighty or above representing honors work, sixty-five passing, and below sixty failing.

Such organizations as the School Publications, the Criss Cross Club ( dramatics), the Stamp Club, Rifle Club, Camera Club, Press Club, Yacht Club, Riding Club, the School Band, the Choir, and the Glee Clubs, afford every boy recreational and creative out­lets. Instruction in instrumental music is also given to boys whose parents request it. No charge is made for these lessons when inter­est and progress are evident.

Every boy has the benefit of counseling. His principal counselor is his advisor, but the Headmaster, the Senior Master, the Regis­trar, and his teachers all participate in helping him make a proper

14

adjustment socially and academically and in planning his college career.

St. Andrew's is on the accredited list of the Middle States Asso­ciation of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the United States Naval Academy, the United States Military Academy, and the Delaware State Board of Education.

ADMISSION

When application for admission is made, the application form is filed until the spring of the year in which entrance is desired. There is an application fee of $5.00, payable at the time formal application is made, and credited to an applicant's incidentals account if he is enrolled in the School; otherwise the fee is retained by the School. The fitness of a candidate for admission is deter­mined on the basis of his previous school record and entrance tests given at St. Andrew's in March and April (see calendar), and for late applicants at such dates as may be convenient. Formal notice of acceptance or rejection is then given. No boy can be officially accepted without these preliminaries.

The entrance tests are designed to test the candidate's ability and preparation to carry on successfully the work of the form for which he is applying.

Tests for entrance to the Second Form cover proficiency in read­ing and writing, familiarity with the elements of English grammar, and arithmetic through percentage. Tests for the higher forms cover all subjects which the applicant expects to continue at St. Andrews, primarily, English, mathematics, and languages, ancient and modern.

Most new boys will be admitted to the Second and Third Forms. In some cases boys may be admitted to the Fourth or Fifth Form, but the curriculum is not planned for boys wishing to take one or two years of boarding school before entering college.

Only those applicants who are in the highest quarter of their

class scholastically will be considered for the two lowest tuition

classes. Application for the $500 and $800 tuition classes will be

considered only if received by March 1 st of the year applied for.

EXPENSES

The School aims to make its advantages available not only to families of large income but also to the sons of the Clergy, members of the armed forces, and members of occupations and professions from which the financial return is moderate. The system of tuition fees provides a scale of four different fees, each with its quota of places in the School. Every boy who enters St. Andrew's School

receives financial aid in a sense, for even the highest tuition does not cover the School's expenses for cost of operation per year per boy. According to the ability of their parents to pay, and to the vacancies in each group, new boys are accepted for tuitions of $500, $800, $1200 or $1600. The tuition fee paid for each boy is confi­dential and has no effect on his status and privileges in the School.

Before a boy's application is filed in a certain tuition group, his parents must give satisfactory evidence that this is the highest fee which they may reasonably be expected to pay. From the applica­tions entered in each tuition group the quota of that group will be filled on the basis of entrance tests, previous school record, and general promise.

For the year 1951-1952 the following vacancies are expected in each tuition group: 4 at $500, 9 at $800, 20 at $1200 and 10 at $1600.

The tuition fee covers tuition, board, lodging, and laundry. It is payable in two installments, on October 1st and February 1st; or it may be paid in nine monthly payments, the first to be twenty per cent of the total amount due, and each succeeding payment to be ten per cent. A handling charge of three per cent of the tuition fee will be made to those who use the monthly payment plan.

No rebate is allowed for dismissal or withdrawal for any cause. It has been arranged, however, that parents may take out Tuition Refund Plan Insurance, covering absence from classes when caused by illness, accident or contagion. Insurance covering medical ex­pense incurred through accidents and illness may also be taken out. These forms of protection are recommended as inexpensive and

valuable.

22

Page 31: ST. ANDREW'S SCHOOLlibraryarchives.standrews-de.org/sites/default/... · Oberlin Conservatory, Curtis Institute CHESTER EARLE BAUM, JR., A.M. IN T. St. Andrew's School, Haverford

In the case of a new boy, an accepted application which is not cancelled before July 15th of the year applied for will be taken as the applicant's contract to pay the first half of the tuition. An accepted application left uncancelled by September 1st will be taken to render the applicant liable for payment of the full amount of the tuition.

In the case of an old boy, failure on the part of his parents to notify the School by July 15th of his expected withdrawal will be taken as the applicant's contract to pay the first half of the tuition.

If the School is not notified by September 1st of his expected with­drawal, it will consider the applicant liable for payment of the full amount of tuition.

In addition to the regular tuition fee there are such incidental expenses as weekly allowance, textbooks, athletic equipment, travel fares and breakage charges. It is the policy of the School to keep all extra charges at the absolute minimum, and with reasonable economy a boy should be able to keep his incidental expenditures within $125 a year.

Parents are asked to deposit at least seventy-five dollars to a boy's incidentals account at the beginning of the year. A boy must have a balance of seventy-five dollars before he begins to draw on his incidentals account. He then draws against this through his School check book and is required to receive the ap­proval of his advisor for all but minor expenditures.

IT IS URGENTLY REQUESTED THAT PARENTS DO NOT SEND THEIR

SONS EXTRA SPENDING MONEY AND THAT ALL DEPOSITS TO A BOYS

ACCOUNT BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE SCHOOL BANK.

VISITING

Visitors are welcome at all times, especially after terms are a few weeks underway. There are usually accommodations at the School, and accommodations may always be arranged at the School Farm. Write directly to Mrs. Samuel DeBoer, St. Andrew's School Farm, Middletown, Delaware. Meals are always available in the School

dining room while School is in session.

GENERAL REGULATIONS

In their association with each other and the older members of the school community, boys are expected to be guided by their highest sense of right and justice according to the general pattern of a Christian family. The School reserves the right to dismiss any boy whose scholarship, conduct, or cooperation is unsatis­factory. The school rules and regulations are fully listed in the HANDBOOK. A few major rules and principles are as follows :

Uninterrupted attendance is of the utmost importance . Week­end absences are granted to each boy under definite regulations, Sixth Formers and boys with Honor Group standing scholastic­ally being granted greater privileges than others. Parents are urgently requested to cooperate with the School and not to make further requests for their son's absence except in the case of absolute necessity.

The possession of, or the use of, intoxicating liquors is strictly forbidden and is subject to serious disciplinary action.

Firearms, explosives, tobacco in any form, bicycles, and pets are not allowed at the School, except as specially permitted under specific school regulations.

Boys are not permitted to ride in cars, except when with a member of the School faculty or staff on official school business.

The School colors are Cardinal and White.

The School maintains a Store from which boys may purchase books, stationery, athletic equipment, candy, and supplies of various kinds at little more than cost price. Boys are advised to bring old clothes and used athletic outfits with them, but in general to postpone the purchase of new athletic equipment until they can procure it from the Store.

There is ample opportunity to buy candy and other light refreshments at the School Store. Parents are requested not to send their sons any food except on special occasions such as birth­days, and then to send such special gifts in care of their son's

advisor.
