PRINCETON DAY SCHOOL JOURNAL Fall 1994 PRINCETON DAY SCHOOL JOURNAL Fall 1994 Miss Fine's School Class of 1934 In the seventy-two years since Miss Fine posed with these young students, her school has merged with Princeton Country Day, computers have become common classroom tools, and most mothers now zvork outside the home. One thing that remains unchanged is that parents still send their children off to school hoping they will become happy, successful individuals. On page two Lozver School Head Sara Schzviebert discusses ways parents and teachers can zvork together to make that zvish a reality. B o a r d o f T r u s t e e s Marilyn YV.

FROM THE HEADMASTER More than a month has passed since Mari and I moved to Princeton, and school is now completing its third week. My direct involvement with PDS is, therefore, limited, but it has been long enough to provide me with some early impressions of the place. Let me tell you about a few of them. Most important, the enthusiasm and good spirit here have been impres­ sive. From the dedication of the var­ sity players who gave up a week of their vacation for the early team prac­ tices to the attention paid by little ones to poetry readings in a lower school assembly, the students have been lively and responsive. And the adults who make up the immediate W r PDS community, the faculty, staff and parents, have also reflected a positive and supportive point of view. We have a great group of people here, stu­ dents and adults.

She has watched them grow and mature through their first years at school and has had the pleasure of following the careers of many through graduation. Over the years she has fostered a balanced approach to early education, avoiding fads in childrearing. Wi* thought her special perspective and wealth of experience would be a valuable resource for parents and caught up with her in a quiet moment last summer to record some of her ideas.

Paul Getty Trust Copyright © 2020 by J. Paul Getty Trust Oral History Center, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley ii Since 1954 the Oral History Center of The Bancroft Library, formerly the Regional Oral History Office, has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable.
