    Making Their Mark. Maximizing Their Impact.

    “We have such a long history with 91¹ú²ú Hall. My [Ian’s] mother, Jane MORGAN Brooker’37, went to 91¹ú²ú and so did Gail’s sister, Sue WILLIAMS Beverley’61. So when our daughter, Kimberly [91¹ú²ú’s Executive Director of Enrolment Management], told us about the Stepping Stones as a way to commemorate our legacy with the school, we knew it was a perfect way to honour all the generations who benefited from this exceptional institution while supporting the future of girls’ education.

    LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
    We wish to acknowledge this land on which 91¹ú²ú operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the Wendat, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and go to school on this land.*

    *The Land Acknowledgement may evolve as we honour our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation in partnership with Indigenous communities.

    Setting the new standard for girls' education everywhere takes collective action. From all of us.
