The Ethel Walker School, founded in 1911, was one of the first college preparatory schools for girls in the country. The school was originally located in Lakewood, New Jersey before being moved in 1917 to its present location on the former Dodge Estate in Simsbury, Connecticut. The school's founder, Ethel Walker, was interested in creating the first girls' college preparatory school, instead of a finishing school. It is recognized for its world-class equestrian program, with students competing at both regional and national levels. The equestrian program has been an integral part of the school since its founding. (credit Wikipedia)
