scopecontent: Scope and Contents of the Collection The Helen Virginia Runnette Papers document her personal and professional life and contain records related to the administration of Tower School and papers of the Runnette family. The collection contains material that spans the years 1849 - 1988, with the bulk of material created from 1940 - 1980. The Runnette Family Papers, a series within this collection, contains undated correspondence that may have been written prior to 1849 and photographs from the mid-nineteenth century.The most significant parts of this collection consist of Tower School Records and Runnette's correspondence. These document the administration of a small country day school from 1917 to 1956, through the great changes in the nation's social and political climates. Included are lists of school trustees, official correspondence, teaching and evaluation materials, enrollment and tuition information, and publications including applications, brochures, and the school literary magazine, "The Turret". Runnette's philosophies of education and the methods she used to realize these are reflected in the Director's notes. These are undated notebooks and loose papers upon which she wrote notes for her own use in facilitating meetings, developing curricular materials, and drafting correspondence. Of particular social and historical significance are letters written during World War II about the British children being educated at Tower while parents remained in Great Britain. Student compositions are included in this collection along with some material evaluating specific students. Diaries cover the years 1924 - 1979 and contain political, personal, and educational reflections as well as information on her health, travels, and the weather. In several instances, diary entries also overlap in date. Runnette's correspondence contains letters from family, friends, parents of students, former students, and other educators. Many letters relate to her retirement and to the death o…

body: Biographical Note Helen Virginia Runnette was born January 29, 1886 to Joseph H. and Virginia Anderson Runnette. She was raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania along with sisters Elizabeth Kerr Runnette, a member of the Mount Holyoke College class of 1912, and Ethel Anderson Runnette Ramsey, class of 1906. Runnette graduated from Mount Holyoke College in 1910, but chose to affiliate herself socially with the class of 1909. After graduating, she taught at Briarcliffe Manor in New York, 1910-1911, and at the Lakewood School for Girls in New Jersey, 1912-1913. She took a position with Miss Tower's School for Children in Salem, Massachusetts in 1913. She attended Boston's New School of Design and Harvard's School of Education sporadically while working at Tower.Runnette had joined Miss Tower's School for Children (later Tower School) shortly after its establishment in 1912. In 1917, she became the Headmistress of the progressive children's school and changed its name to Tower School. When the school was incorporated in 1937, her title changed to Director, and she moved the school from Salem to Marblehead in 1941. Instruction at Tower stressed the development of language and writing skills and taught history through art and drama. Both boys and girls studied home economics and industrial arts together. The school's literary magazine, "The Turret", was highly regarded and was part of the collection at Harvard's Widener Library. Some issues are still held in the Mount Holyoke College library. During World War II, Runnette offered scholarships to seven British children and was honored for this with life membership to the Kinsmen of Britain. She was also a member of the Marblehead Historic Society, the Marblehead Arts Association, Mount Holyoke College Friends of Art, the Independent Artist's Group of Boston, and the North Shore Mount Holyoke Alumnae Club. In 1950, she served as a member of the White House Conference on Children and Youth and was listed in Who's Who in the East.…

Letters concerning British children educated at Tower School during World War II can be found in the correspondence of the early 1940s. Additionally, friends of Runnette living in England wrote of their experiences of war and their relief after it had ended. Affectionate letters of congratulations and wishes upon Runnette's retirement are contained that evidence the impact her teaching had on former students and their parents. A letter from Mary E. Woolley, dated April 24, 1934, mentions a visit by Woolley to Tower School. The majority of letters are dated from the 1940s and 1950s.

scopecontent: Runnette's diaries span the years 1924 to 1979 with the bulk of diaries created in the 1960s and 1970s. Some diaries overlap in dates and give slightly different perceptions of the same days. Notes found in the diaries have been left as found though some of the diaries written in loose-leaf binders have been removed from the metal bindings for preservation purposes. While many of the entries contain little more than a recount of weather, daily activities, and health, many detail her thoughts on people and events in her life as well as education.

scopecontent: The series contains records related to the administration of Tower School from 1917 to 1956. Administrative records include the history and bylaws of the school, information regarding its trustees, financial and enrollment information and information regarding fundraising for the "new building" built when the school was moved from Salem to Marblehead in 1941. Correspondence primarily relates to the school interactions with area businesses and correspondence to the trustees. Also contained are administrative announcements, alumni news, and letters regarding Runnette's retirement dinner. Three folders of Director's Notes show Runnette's ideas about how to manage and inspire teachers, how to educate students, how to run effective meetings, and how to maintain her own enthusiasm in the face of difficulties. These display the transformation of ideas about education into teaching practice. Teaching and evaluation materials include guidelines by which students were to be evaluated and blank evaluation forms, a 1958 summer reading list, and excerpts from school plays. Reports on two specific students, one being a transcript from another school, are also included. The product of students' labor is captured in several editions of "The Turret" and loose student compositions. Additional issues of "The Turret" are held in the Mount Holyoke College Library periodical collection. Further publications include applications and brochures for Tower School that advertise its educational philosophy and offer scenes from the school.Financial and enrollment information includes budget reports as well as one chart comparing Tower School with other area schools in the areas of grades offered, tuition, and "extras."
