Records from Miss Nightingale's files are supplemented by documents and photographs that shed light on her background and school presence. Records include several early commencement speeches, minimal correspondence, compiled biographical information, and photographs of Miss Nightingale. Also of note is an announcement from Miss Nightingale regarding the change in school name from "Miss Nightingale's School" to "The Nightingale-Bamford School."
