REPORT OF PHILANTHROPY 2019-20
the Swall Drive campus, the Junior High library was tucked away upstairs. It felt like a secret treasure trove. Dark wood paneling lined walls filled with books. A Tudor window looked out over the central field. I was often the only student in there. It felt like a library just for me, and I devoured the books in it. While McMahan Library is light and bright and a central hub of the campus, I hope our students feel just as excited when they come to check out some of our more than 11,000 books. The students aren’t on campus right now, but I’m busy shuttling books from our treasure trove out to waiting cars, happy to get them into the hands of our eager readers. It’s good to be home.
Sean Vayberman ‘19 I’ve been doing well, just still trying to get a routine for my school. I have been playing a lot of basketball lately. I have been in the gym and on the grind to make varsity. I try to hang with as many people as I can so I am not just cooped up at home. I have made a lot of new friends at my school, but I will always keep the ones I have made at BHS, and for that I’m grateful. Thank you, and tell everyone I said hello.
Ann Wickham Scott ‘58 I live in Carlsbad, California. Have one son, Tracy Scott, who lives in Palm Desert, and two grandchildren, who are both expecting babies anytime.
Henry Good ’17 Henry Good’s first Mock Trial experience was while he was a student at Berkeley Hall. He continued participating in high school as part of the Crespi Team. He was the Team Leader this year, and won MVP (voted on by the opposing team), his second year in a row. This is what the judge had to say: “I enjoy it when a closing argument is able to change my mind on a case, and this one did,” Judge Mohr. Way to go, Henry!
Cliff Lightfoot ‘53 After graduating from Berkeley Hall, Cliff went to Dorsey High
School, followed by USC for both his undergraduate and graduate degrees. Cliff proudly served his country as a member of the U.S. Army for six years.
