feAtUre for LyNNe mooNey tetA ’86, JUNe 21 mAy iNDeeD hAve BeeN the LoNGeSt DAy of her yeAr. It was the last day of school for Boston’s public school students, yet the lights at 78 Avenue Louis Pasteur were still brightly burning after the official summer solstice at 6:06 p.m. Outgoing Head Master Cornelia A. kelley H’44 was being fêted that night in the dining hall for 27 years of devoted service, including the last nine years spent as the first woman to helm the 372-year-old school. A replacement had not yet been named, but an announcement from Boston Schools Superintendent—and Head Master Emeritus— Michael G. Contompasis ’57 was imminent, scheduled to occur four days later on Monday, June 25. Of the many candidates who applied, the field was now whittled to three, and Assistant Head Master Mooney Teta was among them. But June 21 was a night to celebrate. Hundreds of alumni, faculty and friends had gathered, and at least a dozen spoke in tribute, though the coveted last spot on the dais was reserved for Contompasis, a longtime colleague and friend of kelley’s. fall 2007 Bulletin 19
