Join us as we commemorate an important chapter in Culpeper's history with the Historic Marker Unveiling Ceremony honoring the Ann Wingfield School. This historic marker celebrates the remarkable legacy of Ann Slaughter Wingfield, who opened Culpeper's first public school in her dining room in 1871. Her vision and dedication to providing education for every child helped lay the foundation for public education in our community. More than 150 years later, Mrs. Wingfield's commitment to learning, opportunity, and service continues to inspire educators, students, and our community. Watch the full ceremony as we honor her lasting impact and preserve her story for future generations.
