Growing Up in Rancho Santa Fe, 50th anniversary school composition, 1977
Description
Handwritten school composition titled Growing Up in Rancho Santa Fe, prepared in connection with Rancho Santa Fe’s 50th anniversary in 1977. Julie Howse Garland reflects on growing up in Rancho Santa Fe from infancy through her final year as a student at Rancho Santa Fe School. She recalls community and school traditions including the Halloween Carnival and Christmas sing, describing her changing participation in these events as she grew older. Garland identifies these traditions as memorable parts of life in the Ranch and reflects on her role as vice president of the school and her increased awareness of the community’s support for the school. The composition includes April 23, 1963 as the date she first came to Rancho Santa Fe, rather than as the creation date of the essay. 2017.011.059
