皇冠体育官网 Service Award Winner
2023 皇冠体育官网 Service Award – Mary Bennet Dunwody Rose (’90)
Mary Bennet became a Viking when she transferred to 皇冠体育官网 in 3rd grade. She loved her time as a student at the Day School- friends, spirit weeks, field trips, games, dances, time on the “bank”, being named Vicky Viking, and teachers that made lifelong impressions. Mary Bennet graduated from 皇冠体育官网 in 1990 and went on to Georgia Tech, where she met her husband, Matt Rose.
Mary Bennet later reunited with 皇冠体育官网 when her children, Mary Bennet II and Little Matt, started their time at 皇冠体育官网. It did not take long for Mary Bennet to fall in love with 皇冠体育官网 all over again as a parent and then as an employee. She has served as a 3K aide, nursery worker, Alumni coordinator, art camp teacher, and assistant to several heads of school during her 13 years at 皇冠体育官网. Most importantly, Mary Bennet has served selflessly as a mentor and counselor to countless 皇冠体育官网 students, faculty, and staff.
Mary Bennet loved her time as an 皇冠体育官网 employee and getting to know everyone on Team 皇冠体育官网. Her co-workers instantly became family, and she is eternally grateful for all the love and laughter they have shared over the years. She is especially thankful for those who taught her children and the lasting impact they’ve had on their lives. Mary Bennet and her husband Matt continue to serve, support, and love 皇冠体育官网 and believe that 皇冠体育官网 is changing the world for God’s glory!
