The Jester

School Crests
School History

One of the most popular characters in the long-standing annual student performance of Revels, the jester has established him/herself as the School’s athletic mascot. To the students, the jester represents an aggressive but playful "love of the game."

When Emma Hart Willard first established her school in Troy, 90 girls from around the country were enrolled in math, science, history, foreign language, and literature courses. Willard herself not only served as instructor, she wrote a number of textbooks used at her school and throughout America.
