TEDD D. WOODS Black-Foxe 1958-68 Harvard School 1968-91 The Tedd D. Woods Fund

Tedd Wo ods is responsible for my fondest memories of Haroard School. He related to us not only as students but as peers. Our achievements were not only individual - they belonged to Tedd, to the speech and debate program, to the School. We were a team, and that made everything a bit less intimidating. And we all learned from the experience. We learned self-confidence. We practice what Tedd taught us every day. And that is a sign of a very special teacher. - Robert Beyer '77

The Tedd D. Woods Fund is being established to honor T edd Woods and to memori alize his dedication to his students and his enthusiasm for teaching. The Woods Fund·will support scholarships, excellence in teaching, and community outreach programs. This fund will allow the School to venture into the community and provide opportunities for those less fortunate to benefit from the confidence and competitive spirit that our students receive through the speech and debate program.

The Woods Fund seeks substantial gifts in order that its effect can be felt immediately . and endowed for the future benefit of Harvard-Westlake students. T he School has received a $25,000 challenge to initiate the Woods Fund. Of course participation, regardless of size, is always encouraged.
