The Shipley School is an independent pre-K–12 college preparatory school in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, United States, approximately 10 miles west-northwest of Philadelphia.
Hannah Shipley, Elizabeth Shipley, and Katharine Shipley, all sisters, founded The Shipley School in 1888 as a preparatory school for Bryn Mawr College, a women's college located directly across the street. [6] The Shipley sisters were strong-willed, highly educated Quaker women who created the school to pass on their values to similarly minded young women. [6] The school opened in the fall of 1894 with six students and nine faculty members. [6]
By the 1940s, Shipley had expanded the student body to 341 students. [6] At this time, about half of all Upper School students were boarders hailing from all over the country and from Europe, Asia, Russia, the Middle East, and Latin America. [6]
During the 1970s and 1980s, Shipley discontinued its boarding department and began to admit male students. [6] The last boarders graduated in 1982, and by 1984 the school was fully coeducational with equal numbers of girls and boys. [6]
The Shipley School has three divisions: Lower School (pre-kindergarten through grade 5), Middle School (grades 6 through 8), and Upper School (grades 9 through 12).

"I started writing my own music when I was 6," he said. "That really ignited my passion for music," said the Villanova native who is in ninth grade at The Shipley School.
Jessica Knoll, author of the best-selling novel Luckiest Girl Alive revealed Tuesday that the harrowing gang rape she depicted in her book wasn't fiction at all. It had happened to her, when she was a student at the prestigious Shipley School in Bryn Mawr.
You know a kid who's released a few songs, your friend has some locked diss tracks posted, not forgetting the mash-ups created by your next door neighbor, Chris Comstock, A.K.A Marshmello (Shipley; class of 2010).
