The house with the most event points at the end of the year gets their name inscribed on a trophy that is located in Reid Hall, and the colors of their team are used in the student handbook. The students are divided up into four houses (Lewis, Sargent, Welch, and Bird) and compete in various events throughout the year. The House Cup Competition was established under Dean Colley Bell in 2004.The procession behind the Head Master snakes around until every member of the school shakes the hand of everyone else. As he moves down the line the next person shakes his hand, and the next, and the next. The entire school arranges themselves in a line around the periphery of the Formal Gardens and the Head of School begins by shaking the person's hand next to him.
At the beginning of each year every student, faculty member, and administrator gathers in the formal gardens and participates in the all school handshake. Sandra holds a Master of Music degree in piano performance from the University of Illinois at Urbana/Champaign.Departmental awards and speeches are given, and at the end of the ceremony, each class is invited to "move up" and literally take the place that they will occupy the next year: seniors move to sit with the alumni, juniors take the former spots of the seniors, and so on. Over time, this tradition evolved into its current form, usually being held the day before Graduation. Move-Up Day began as a tradition at Ferry Hall in 1906, originally called Ivy Day, commemorating the annual planting of Ivy at the base of Smith Hall.31 percent of the student body receives financial aid.
