MEMPHIS, TN (abc24.com) - Hutchison School is a private all-girls school in east Memphis. The students range in age from 2-years-old to high school seniors. Their motto is “Anywhere She Can Imagine.” From sports to academics, it's truly a cool school.
How many schools actually have a farm on campus? Students at Hutchison School get quite an experience.
"This farm is really designed to help the girls explore what they’re learning in the classroom," said Sarah Pierce, Hutchison Horticulturist. "Everybody’s here to work together to help these girls become as strong and bright as they can be."
With more than 900 students that range from toddlers to teens, the all-girls school really works to shape these young girls into successful young women.
"Our graduates are really changing the world; they’re doing fabulous things in so many areas," said Dr. Annette Smith, Hutchison Head of School.
One of the more popular extra curricular activities at the school is the Hutchison Leads program. It offers students a chance to impact the Mid-South community through volunteerism and service.
Student Azsha Treanor said, "It has introduced me to things that have helped me grow as a person and helped me give back to the community in which I live."
And the academic programs are top notch. Science students, only 5-years-old, are learning how to dissect the heart of a sheep.
From the sciences, to the arts and even agriculture, students at Hutchison learn it all. And one thing’s for sure - they’re proud of their school.
"I love that it’s all girls and we have such a strong community here and such strong sense of bond and friendship," said student Mary Sanford McClure.
They also prove that Hutchison is a pretty cool school.
