He is surrounded by students, their parents, and beaming nuns. Archbishop Connolly came to Tacoma for the dedication ceremonies for the $240,000 school and convent which were held with a solemn high mass and blessing of the walls and interiors. St. Ann's had eight classrooms for the first eight grades and served 320 students. Photograph ordered by St. Ann's Parish School. (TNT 12-10-55, p.4-article; TNT 12-12-55, p. 16-article)
