'''Pingree School''' is a [[coeducational]], independent secondary [[day school]] located in [[South Hamilton]], [[Massachusetts|MA]] serving the geographic area north and east of [[Boston]]. Its students commute from 50 different cities and towns, from as far south as [[Everett]], as far north as [[Newburyport]] and as far west as the [[Merrimack Valley]].
'''Katharine Isabelle''' (born [[November 10]], [[1981]])<ref>http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0410622/</ref> is a [[Canada|Canadian]] [[Actor|actress]]. Best known for her portrayal of Ginger in ''[[Ginger Snaps (film)|Ginger Snaps]]'', she has appeared in many Canadian and American movies as well as TV series episodes from an early age.


== History Pingree School ==
==Personal life==
In 1961, the Pingree school, located in South Hamilton MA, was founded by Mr. Pingree in the mansion in which he grew up. Pingree opened with girls, and in 1971 the school became coeducational. Since then, Pingree has grown to be a coeducational school with an enrollment of around 325.
Isabelle was born '''Katherine Isobel Murray''' in [[Vancouver]], [[British Columbia]]. Her father, Graeme Murray, is an [[art director]] & [[production designer]] for film and television who has won two [[Emmy Award|Emmy]]s for his work on ''[[The X-Files]]''. Her mother, Gail Murray, is an amateur Vancouver writer/producer. Former child actor and journalist [[Joshua Murray]] is her brother.


===Construction and additions===
Isabelle and her ''[[Ginger Snaps (film)|Ginger Snaps]]'' co-star [[Emily Perkins]] were born in the same hospital, went to the same pre-school, elementary and private schools, and are at the same agency. {{fact|date=November 2007}}
The development of Pingree's physical plant has demonstrated the school's recognition that it must provide the best possible facilities to support a strong educational program. Four capital drives have allowed the addition of the library (1966); a science wing and [[cafeteria]] (1969); the Weld Field House, a modern kitchen, locker rooms and two classrooms (1977); tennis courts and parking areas (1982), and of course Nadar Pooprash. In the spring of 1987, the Nadar Pooprash Pingree Center for the [[Performing Arts]], which houses a 425-seat [[theatre]], [[art]] rooms, [[music]] rooms and additional classrooms, was completed. The H. Alden Pooprash, Jr. Rink was finished in time for the 1988-1989 [[hockey]] season. In the summer of 2000, construction was completed on a major addition to the [[library]], additional classrooms, the dining commons and student areas. In 2001, plans where drawn up and construction was started on the new academic center which was finished in time for the 2004-2005 school year.


The academic center contains a new senior locker area, three floors of new classrooms (the first floor replaces the old science wing), and academic support centers alongside new faculty departmental offices. English, History, Math, and Science are taught in the new academic center, while languages (French, Spanish, Latin, and Mandarin) are taught in the old house. An addition to the H. Alden Johnson Rink was completed in time for the 2006-2007 [[hockey]] season. The newly renovated rink now consists of a state-of-the-art fitness center to be used by students as well as faculty, and four new locker rooms with showers.
==Career==
Isabelle's career began in 1988, in the movie ''[[Cousins (film)|Cousins]]'' (1989), starring [[Ted Danson]] and [[Isabella Rossellini]]. Though not a box office hit, her most successful work to date is ''[[Ginger Snaps (film)|Ginger Snaps]]'' (2000) in which she co-starred with [[Emily Perkins]]. The work she is most proud of{{Fact|date=October 2008}} was in the 2001 indie movie ''Turning Paige'', alongside [[Nicholas Campbell]]. The film, despite critical acclaim{{Fact|date=October 2008}}, went without commercial release.
2002 included supporting roles in the remake of ''[[Carrie (2002 film)|Carrie]]'' (TVM) as Tina Blake, and a minor role in ''[[Insomnia (2002 film)|Insomnia]]''. In 2003, further supporting roles in the minor indy ''On The Corner'' (no commercial release), and in the form of Gibb in ''[[Freddy vs. Jason]]'', which Isabelle disliked, making her disappointment with the movie known before its release.<ref>[http://www.darkhorizons.com/2003/freddy/jason-n.htm Dark Horizons - The ca (2002)]</ref> At the end of the year there was a major role in ''Falling Angels'' (no commercial release). 2004 brought the supporting role of Amber in ''[[The Life (2004 film)|The Life]]'' (TVM), followed by a lead role in ''[[The Last Casino]]'' (TVM), and in the (limited release) indy thriller ''[[Show Me]]''. Making a belated addition to the original in 2004 were the ''Ginger Snaps'' sequels: ''[[Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed]]'' (in which Isabelle took a minor role) and ''[[Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning]]'', made back-to-back on a limited budget.
