In 1996, the Board of Trustees established the Welles Society, named after the school’s first Headmaster, Henry H. Welles. The society recognizes those donors who, while wisely planning their own finances, also understand the importance of giving back to the school that set the foundation for their lives.Behind the recognition of Country School as a National Exemplary Blue Ribbon School stands the quiet but generous financial support of countless individuals. Our school could neither have achieved nor sustained its present leadership position without the steadfast commitment of its parents, graduates and friends.
