Dedication by bishops and other clergy of St. Ann's Parish School on December 11, 1955. Archbishop Thomas A. Connolly is shown conveying his blessing upon the new parochial school's crucifixes and the American flag. He is flanked by Father J.F. Milner of St. Ann's Catholic Church and Father E.L. Berry, assistant director of the school. The new elementary school was located on the same block as St. Ann's Catholic Church in the southend of Tacoma. Sister Daniel was the school principal with nuns as most of the teachers. The $162,500 school was designed by architects McGuire & Muri; a $74,000 convent for teaching nuns was built at the same time in the vicinity of the school. Photograph ordered by St. Ann's Parish School. (TNT 10-23-55, A-6, TNT 12-12-55, p. 16)
