What is your favorite memory during your time as a student at the Anniston Academy/The Donoho School?
One morning my hem completely fell out of my dreadful, plaid uniform skirt. I made a beeline for the bathroom. Several girls heard my distress call and spread out all over school in search of office supplies. In fewer than five minutes between classes, I was stapled and scotch taped back up and back in business. But lest this be a problem again, they topped it all off with duct tape for reinforcement. That hem has not moved in four decades. I remember this fondly because it was an early encounter with the fact that if you get good, smart women together, much can be solved.
If you could leave one piece of advice to future Donoho students, what would that be?
Your resume’ will get you in the door; how you treat others will get you promoted.
