Mrs. Thomas D. Johnson, Jr. Drs. Victor and Denise Kalman The northern red oak located on the Sedgely lawn is one of the largest in the region, and it represents many of the qualities that make Tatnall special. The tree has endured the test of time. Its longevity, strength, and beauty remain constant. While it may change in appearance with each passing season, children continue to play and learn at the base of its stately trunk. Many of Tatnall’s longest standing traditions take place under the tree’s protective branches.

The Red Oak Legacy Society was established to recognize those who secure The Tatnall School’s future by creating a planned gift or including Tatnall as a charitable recipient in their will.

Bequests and planned gifts are the seeds that will enable Tatnall to grow and flourish in the future. The Red Oak Legacy Society allows donors to be honored in their lifetime and inspires others to make similar plans. Gifts are invested in The Tatnall School endowment fund and help supplement the school’s annual budget. Funds may also be directed to
