SEVERN SCHOOL LocAT1oN nvmm SCHOOL is located at Severna Park, Maryland, about nine miles from Annapolis, upon a bluff overlooking the Severn River at its widest part. Attractive surroundings offer oppor- tunity for healthful outdoor recreation both on land and on the tidal salt water of the river.

Since 1920 the School has been on the accredited list of the Service academies and of various colleges that admit by certificate. ln 19 3 5 the curriculum was further broadened to include the equivalent of first year college work in Eng- lish, mathematics and science.
