Vivian Webb School 2020-21 RECOGNITION & AWARDS ANNOUNCEMENT
We are pleased to recognize Vivian Webb School’s leadership groups and announce our commended scholars, athletes, recipients of our college book awards, academic distinction awards and distinguished service and leadership awards for the 2020-21 school year. As we recognize those students and student groups who most exemplify our mission, we must not forget the many important strides we have taken as a community “of the whole” to make Vivian Webb the best place it can be this year. Thank you to our students, parents, faculty and staff who have shown us that we are truly all in this together and while we are physically apart, our community bonds and ties are stronger than ever.
