LOCATION Randolph-lVlacon Academy is situated at Front Royal, Virginia, at the entrance to the Shenandoah National Park, and just one mile distant from the Northern beginning of the famous Skyline Drive. This magnificent scenic highway was completed just a few years ago by the Federal Government, and its natural beauty and charm have been' evidenced by the fact that the Shenandoah National Park has been acclaimed one of the most popular National Parks in the United States. The Skyline Drive begins at Front Royal and extends for nearly 100 miles along the crest of the Blue Ridge. With this beautiful mountain range visible from our campus in three directions and with the Shenandoah River flowing close by, Randolph- lVlacon,s setting is one of beauty and inspiration. Washington, D. C., is only 69 miles distant, while Richmond, Virginia, is 130 southeast and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is a little more than 200 miles in a northwesterly direction. The town and school are served by bus lines and by the Shenandoah Division of the Norfolk and W'estern Railroad. These services, together with telegraph and telephone communications, place the Academy within easy reach of the parent at all hours ofthe day or night. Excellent highways give access from all directions. This region is noted for its scenic beauty, its health record, and its historic interests. The School grounds comprise an area of nearly one hundred acres. The Academy stands on an eminence which gives an inspiring view of the surrounding hills a11d valleys, and at the same time affords complete drainage in all directions.
