The greatest poem ever known
is one all poets have outgrown:
The poetry, innate, untold,
of being only four years old.
- Christopher Morley, "To a Child"

About Us
Duke Memorial Weekday School is in session from September through May. School hours are from 9 a.m. until 12 noon, except kindergarten, which operates from 9 a.m. until 12:50 p.m.
