Orchard House School
Annual Report
2014-2015
The 2014-2015 school year at Orchard House was exceptional as the school
community honored founder and head Nancy Davies and, as the year progressed,
started to lay the groundwork for the school’s future. Our mission and philosophy
remain the strong core that bridges past and future. At the heart of our work
is the simple, yet essential focus...the girls. We are making a meaningful
contribution to the future of each girl and to our world.
Thank you for joining with us on this tremendous journey.
With gratitude,
Susanne Phelan Gregory
