Description

Letter and questionnaire to Susan Souby from St. Timothy's Girl's School in Maryland. The letter notes of the busy summer Mrs. Souby has ahead of her as she assumes the role of Harpeth Hall's incoming principal. The questionnaire answers Mrs. Souby's questions about the structure and atmosphere of St. Timothy's School.

Context

As Harpeth Hall was soon to open in September 1951, Susan Souby sent questionnaires to several preparatory schools across the country, likely to see how other schools operated and to adopt various practices from each to incorporate into Harpeth Hall. It seems that in her original letter, Mrs. Souby requested a copy of the medical cards and schedules the schools used.
