We loved looking at an old newspaper article from 1975, which featured three SCEGGS girls cycling as one of their Award exercises.

The image featured from 1982 was used for the 1982 and 1983 Prospectus. The photograph of SCEGGS girls rowing, in 1896, was such a wonderful image to feature this past week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Last week we asked people to guess the year the photograph, depicting a television and recording equipment, was taken. Our SCEGGS Old Girls guessed 1969 correctly on their Facebook page. First correct answer was Joanne D. Nelson. Robyn Kelso also remembered watching the moon landing in the classroom, on a small black and white television, in 1969.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for next week\u2019s look at past School formals and dances, where you can decide how well the fashions have stood the test of times.<\/p>\n<p>See the latest update showing our countdown via our <a href=\"https:\/\/sceggs.instructure.com\/\">Cognito <\/a>Senior Library page<em>.
