MISS MOUNTFORT COUNSELOR When a student enters Harpeth Hall, one of the first people she will meet is Penelope Mount- fort, that efficient and awe-inspiring individual who administers tests. Yet somewhere along the way, Miss Mountfort becomes Miss Penny, mis- chievous school photographer. Yet when one works closely with Miss Penny, either through her ac- tivities as college counselor, or as Student Council and Annual Staff sponsor, one sees that Miss Penny is even more than all this. She is a lady with an irrepressible spirit, who can be the most helpful, the most encouraging, the most fun; in short, the most of whatever is demanded of her at any moment. FACULTY AND STAFF MISS FESSEY MIDDLE SCHOOL DIRECTOR The Middle School is now finishing its second year of smooth operation, and it is becoming increasingly clear that much of the credit for its success should go to Miss Polly Fessey. Miss Fessey is known and respected by every Harpeth Hall student, from sev- enth grader to senior. Whether in her office or at a hockey game, Miss Fessey ' s abilities are apparent to all. Her wise and kind lead- ership will have a great effect in helping to guide and shape the character of Harpeth Hall for years to come. 18
