On the occasion of our 50th anniversary, Will Webster, Joy Armson, Pat Cleave, Elizabeth Kay-Raining Bird, and Anne Godden-Webster donated a portrait of Mabel Hubbard Bell to the School! The artist, Jo Napier of Great Women Productions, showcases the contributions of women to advancements in science, law, health care, and social welfare. The portrait was presented to the School at a special gathering! It is now displayed proudly in our reception area along with a short text about her contributions.
