Marvelwood School's beautification of the campus

2008-06-02 09:26:04

On Thursday, May 15th, the entire Marvelwood community participated in campus-wide clean-up and beautification activities as part of the tradition of Skip Tucker Day.

Carl “Skip” Tucker was head of the school's maintenance department for several years in the early to mid-1990s, and organized and oversaw the relocation of the entire school from Cornwall to the Skiff Mountain campus. Skip was tireless in his dedication to making the school look great, continuing his efforts up until a few months before his death from cancer in 1996, at the age of 37.

Skip Tucker Day and the Skip Tucker Cup, awarded each year at graduation to that member of the community who is actively dedicated to the school and its mission and who takes consummate pride in his/her work, honor his memory and keep his spirit alive on campus.
