Orchard School Will Note 20th Anniversary
THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY of the founding of Orchard School will be observed with a Founders’ Day dinner at the Woodstock Club Thursday evening. Speakers will be Mrs. G. H. A. Clowes, Mrs. Lee Burns. Miss Faye Henley and Gordon H. Thompson. ttending the dinner will be present and past patrons, alumni, faculty. children now in the seventh and eighth grades at school and friends. Parents of the first pupils and those first pupils now in the city will be seated at the speakers’ table. Mrs. Donald Jameson of the board of trustees is in charge of arrangements for the dinner, assisted by Miss Judith Preston, president of the alumni group. The founders, who held their preliminary meetings 20 years ago this spring. are: Mesdames Edith Whitehill Clowes, Ruth Schuyler Cole, Mary Parrott Failey, Emily Taggart Sinclair, Evelyn Fortune Bartlett and the following who have died: Miss Martha Carey, Mesdames Ruth McCulloch Bon, Bess Griggs Bacon and Mary Carey Appel. The school was started as a progressive country day school, and although the principles of child development for which it stood were new to the community at that time, they had been well tested in practice elsewhere by such eminent educators and psychologists as Professor William James, John Dewey, Horace Mann, Marietta Johnson and others.
School Opened With 20 Pupils
IN ADDITION to the regular subject-matter for elementary school children. opportunities were offered in music, art. crafts, dramatics and folk-dancing Some of the ideas which seemed startling at the time when Orchard introduced them to the come munity. but have since been widely adopted, are the use of manu. script writing, excursions as part of the curriculum, and individual conferences with parents instead of written, graded report cards Twenty girls and boys from five to seven years of age were the first pupils. Each year a beginning group has been added as the other groups advanced. The first class was graduated from the Orchard eighth grade in 1928. In 1935, the four-year-old kindergarten was established as a separate group from the five-year-old kindergarten. From the beginning Orchard School has had a country environment. Its first home was a house in an orchard at 50th and N. Meridian Sts., lent by Mrs. Mary S. Carey Four years later it was moved to its present location where there is woodland, playgrounds, athletic fields, and a pet area Three buildings are
