History

Founded by G.L. Hanna in 1884 in nearby Argyle Square, from which it got its name, it remained in the Hanna family until 1969 until it was sold to the current proprietor's father, Jeffrey Johnson. The current Headmaster purchased the school from his father on the latter's retirement in 2003 [1] The school, founded as a boys' school, has been non-selective and co-educational since 1994.

gollark: I mean, "spying on most things sent over global communications" does *sound* pretty much like "unreasonable search".
gollark: Yes, and we will get to watch as it's upheld as somehow *not* being unreasonable.
gollark: Yes, and I don't care, because I think that's a misinterpretation of it.
gollark: ```The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.```This fourth amendment thingy does sound slightly relevant.
gollark: And this *could easily be* and is *already a breach of privacy*.
