As the bells in the Memorial Bell Tower played in the background, this year's senior class kicked off the first day of classes and the new school year with the annual Vista Walk. Led by Head of School Barbara Chase, the walk starts at the edge of the Great Lawn and finishes on the steps of Samuel Phillips Hall. The walk, which prefigures the graduation procession the students will take in June, is a ritual meant to bring good fortune to all during the coming school year.
