In her 50 years on the Ravenscroft Board of Trustees, 1969-2019, Frances Pugh has served as vice chair and on the Finance, Executive, Buildings & Grounds and Institutional Advancement committees. Her husband, V. Watson Pugh, is a Tucker Street alumnus, and their four children and six of their grandchildren attended Ravenscroft as well.
When asked which of Ravenscroft’s accomplishments makes her most proud, she said, “I have always pushed for keeping a vision alive. What we do today is the result of the past and reflects on our future. Lead From Here and having such a dedicated Head of School and staff has been such a blessing.”
Mrs. Pugh’s guidance and generosity have been instrumental in shaping Ravenscroft’s campus over the years. Read about the four major phases of campus development — and the visionary leadership that made them possible — in
