Anne Frank Library Dedication
(Upper Left)
The Baldwin School’s Schoolhouse
Library is now known as the Anne Frank
Library, named in honor of the historical
figure and the Baldwin family who
anonymously made a $1 million commitment
to the school. The donor’s gift will
support scholarship aid to ensure access
and affordability for current and future
students.
Monte Carlo? Oui! (Above)
During “A Night in Monte Carlo,”
Parents’ Association volunteers lit up
the Residence with the glamour and
glitz of a casino, complete with poker,
blackjack, roulette and a prize wheel.
Attendees also bid on silent auction
items both near (breakfast with Eagles
players) and far (trips to the Emmy
Awards, Monte Carlo and the Loire
Valley), raising $150,000 for the school.
