A
place not of mechanical instruction but a school of character where the common requisite for all have been human feeling, a sense of humor and the spirit of intellectual and moral adventure.

The Spence School Logo
“Not for school but for life we learn.”
When Clara Spence adopted this quotation from Seneca as our motto, she deepened her call for young women to keep learning even if the doors of higher education were closed to them at the time. Today, our motto and mission represent the forever appetite for intellectual adventure, for eternally open doors, and for the capacity to chart one’s own path.
