1929–1931: DALTON TRADITIONS ESTABLISHED

Poster text:

Enrollment climbs to 383 students and traditions take root: Candlelighting celebrates the Winter Solstice; Arch Day, adapted from a Chinese ritual, marks the passage between academic years; and the Greek Festival culminates Middle School students’ immersion in Greek culture. On Book Day, each student donates a book to the school library for Lincoln’s Birthday. Image shows Candlelighting, Class of 1940.
