Fort “My favorite place was having classes outside on top of the bluff. And the Dell was really nice back then.” – Laurinda Spear Laurinda Spear, 1968 Yearbook Marisa R. Fort, 1998 Yearbook The Spear Family Laurinda Spear ’68 Marisa R. Fort ’98 (Cody Courbier ’98) Emilia Adams ’29 Laurinda: My favorite place was having classes outside on top of the bluff. And the Dell was really nice back then. My best memory was of my senior thesis. I did a theater piece in Swenson Hall with children from my neighborhood – I grew up in Miami Shores. Absolutely nobody came to the presentation, except one teacher, but I really enjoyed doing it and having the children do the play. I made all the sets; I made all the costumes; and I did the script. It was fabulous. Marisa: I definitely liked sitting under that [large] tree at the upper school, where the benches are. My best memory was St. Alban’s Day every year, and lunch in the quad on a winter day. I loved the brilliant, kind people, and the community. “I don’t really have a favorite spot! But I already love the people and the teachers.” – Emilia Adams ’29
