Stone Ridge School of the Sacred Heart hi mrs. o'hara!!(previously known as Stone Ridge Country Day School) is a prestigious Pre-K through 12 independent, Catholic school for girls located in Bethesda, Maryland, in the Washington, DC suburbs. It is located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Washington. Stone Ridge offers a competitive college preparatory curriculum within a dynamic and diverse community. Stone Ridge is located across the street from the National Institutes of Health and next door to National Naval Medical Center. The school known today as Stone Ridge was established in downtown Washington, DC at 1719 Massachusetts Avenue, NW in 1923. By the end of the Second World War, the school had outgrown the building known affectionately as "1719."
In 1947, the Society of the Sacred Heart bought 35 acres of land and their estate, known as "Stone Ridge," in Bethesda, Maryland from Mr. and Mrs. George Hamilton. To this day, the original part of the Hamilton estate is known as "Hamilton House." Over the years, multiple additions have supported the growth of the school, including an initial wing off the back of Hamilton House to accommodate classrooms. In the 1950s and 1960s, another addition was built to support classrooms for the lower and upper schools, as well as the religious community. At that time, a new gym was built as well. In 1996, a large new addition with new classroom and lab space was built for the upper school, in addition to a new, third gym. More recent additions include an indoor swimming pool and major landscaping work. (...) more....
