Despite the elimination of many traditional aspects of the graduation, some “new” traditions were instituted. In May, each senior was surprised at home with the delivery of graduation lawn signs. And, in June, the graduates wound their way through campus in their cars, horns honking and streamers flying, as faculty and staff cheered from the sidewalks during a socially-distanced graduation parade. Congratulations to every single member of Prout’s Class of 2020. You are in our prayers. We will miss you.

Humphrey wanted each selection in the 2019-2020 Prout theatre season to showcase the theme of “magic.” The productions that were selected—Matilda, It’s a Wonderful Life, and Brigadoon—certainly all portray lives changed by magic, while the performances themselves were magical.

Matilda Prout Theatre Company kicked off the year in November 2019 withMatilda , a musical about a young girl with a huge heart and telekinesis powers. The leading roles were filled by many of the school’s seasoned actors: Brigid Fitzgerald ‘21 played Matilda, Sydney Householder ‘20 played Miss Honey, Katia Konopelko ‘21 played Miss Trunchbull, and Samuel Eaton ‘20 played Mr. Wormwood.

New nets were purchased and the courts were resurfaced, leveled, and repaired.

“Lazarus,” says Mrs. Price, “was a whole school effort to bring attention to and support organizations that provided food for the hungry in our neighborhoods, state, nation, and world.”

There is no doubt Mrs. Lachapelle, Mr. Frappier, and Mrs. Price will spend their retirement continuing to serve those around them. While the school community is already missing each of the retirees, Mrs. Lachapelle, Mr. Frappier, and Mrs. Price agreed they have been changed by their time at Prout. Most of all, they will sorely miss those who make The Prout School so special.

Mrs. Price says it best: “My 24 years at Prout have been a wonderful cap to my 40 years in education. It was a time of learning from and sharing with outstanding teachers who both challenged me and made my job easier, working with young adults who kept me creative and looking for and applying best practices, and assisting the most caring, involved parents a school could ever hope to have.”  Linda Price, always good-natured about dressing up for Spirit Week, channels her inner Ursula from The Little Mermaid.
