Alumnae Awards

The McCauley Bowl

The McCauley Bowl is awarded periodically to an alumna or other member of the school community who has distinguished herself/himself through long service to the school and its graduates. This award is made in memory of and in gratitude for the life of Bell Lazenby McCauley of the Class of 1931. Mrs. McCauley’s life of service defines the standards and values, which are used by the Board of the Alumnae Association in selecting recipients of this honor. The family wishes the Alumnae Board to make this award only intermittently as an exceptionally worthy candidate is proposed but hopes the Board will feel free to place a broad interpretation on the criteria.
