Clarendon School
The Clarendon School is a historic school building located in the Virginia Square neighborhood of Arlington County, Virginia. The structure was erected in 1910 based on a design by noted Virginia architect Charles M. Robinson.
The school was renamed to the Maury School in 1925 to honor Matthew Fontaine Maury (1806-1873), a geographer, and oceanographer known as the “Pathfinder of the Seas.” Born on January 14, 1806, in Fredericksburg, Virginia, Maury joined the United States Navy in 1821 and was promoted to lieutenant in 1836.
