Artwork now hanging in School District office, in memory of Superintendant Ingalls

A drawing of the School District of Mystery Lake schools, gifted to former Superintendant Eleanor Ingalls, is now hanging in the lobby of the school board office.

 

 

Trish Ingalls says she found it fitting to return the drawings, after her mother passed away:

 

"I felt that a little piece of that legacy would go back with her with the picture so I really felt that, that was where she would want it to be so people could see them and enjoy them. They were I think ink drawings of the front doors of all the schools in the school district- very nice piece of artwork".

 

 

Eleanor Ingalls was Superintendant from 1967 to 1981. One of the first women in Canada to hold this position. She had received the artwork from the School District when she retired.

 

She passed away in April on her 90th birthday.
