championships 2007-08 February 15-16 at Avon Old Farms School “Aspire and Persevere” Avon Old Farms School a brief history

Avon Old Farms School was founded by , Connecticut’s first licensed female architect. Theodate’s imaginitive genius as an architect and her vision and determination to create a school for boys, combined with her personal wealth, made possible the founding of the school in 1927. The original stone and oak architecture is modeled after structures found in the English Cotswolds, and was built by craftsmen in the Cotswold and Tudor styles using traditional English methods with materials hewn from the school’s property. The school sits upon 1,000 acres of rolling woodland, with the Farmington River to the east and picturesque Beaver Pond laying just a short walk south of the core campus. The center of campus includes a beautiful vista overlooking the Farmington Valley.

In the founding years, Avon tried to combine the best of English traditions with a daring and radical modern curriculum. This provided for difficulties in attracting students, though the school found many successes along with the challenges. The school was forced to close during World War II, when it became a convalescent hospital for blinded Army veterans, but it re-opened in 1948; however, with no money, no endowment, no students, and no faculty, the institution faced major obstacles.

Through the leadership of headmasters of Don Pierport, George Trautman, and Ken LaRocque, in addition to that of countless board members, alumni, parents, and friends of the school, Avon Old Farms stands strong today. The school has grown from 48 boys at its opening in 1927 to a full capacity of 400 boys in grades 9-12 and postgraduates. The campus offers outstanding facilities, including a new student center and athletic field house as well as an NHL-quality arena. The Ordway Science and Technology Center was completed in 2002, and the new Beatson Performing Arts Center opened in March of 2007.

As Peter Aron ’65, then Board Chairman, wrote in 2002 on the occasion of the school’s 75th anniversary, “We have filled and overflowed Mrs. Riddle’s original buildings, and have continued to build. By any measure, we are very different today — academically, athletically, socially — as a reflection of a very different society. Yet certainly Mrs. Riddle would recognize her school, and I like to think that she would recognize her boys. The young men of Avon are recognizable, not just by the winged beaver on their blazers, but by their direct and friendly gaze.”
