From the Headmaster Dear BA Family and Friends, We have been fortunate to watch great performances this year at Brentwood Academy. Exceptional success in academics, athletics, fine arts, forensics, robotics, and areas of personal challenge all demonstrate the results of great effort and commitment. We are grateful to share in the memories of these moments and in the celebration of such encouraging outcomes from the countless hours of discipline and effort. Yet with the benefit of experience, we remind ourselves that these achievements reflect great personal sacrifice as well as effort and discipline. There is beauty in every element of success, but the most dramatic and significant outcomes may be less obvious than the awards and trophies, the scores and the accolades. The greatest beauty may be found in the changes in us that come, by God’s grace, through the suffering and commitment and sacrifices we endure. This happens not only in those arenas where we sacrifice and suffer by choice (as in sustained exceptional academic, artistic or athletic commitments), but also in those areas of life that are beyond our control. What are some of your favorite memories? And what makes those memories so significant? In this issue, we highlight some great memories, and some personal stories. Looking back gives us the wonder-filled ability to be thankful for special experiences, interactions, and relationships, while at the same time shaping our perspective on the opportunities and challenges that we are enjoying or anticipating now. Our confidence that God is at work in deep and personal ways in every circumstance allows us to savor success while being aware that the visible outcomes and the outward circumstances are only a part of the picture. As C.S. Lewis put it, “God is at work growing us into a certain kind of people.” May God help us grow in our capacity to recognize beauty, in our capacity to discern what is worthy, and in our confidence in God’s continuing work! In His Service With You, Curt

Curt Masters, Headmaster

44th Brentwood Academy Commencement O ne hundred seventeen members of the Class of 2016 received diplomas during Brentwood Academyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 44th commencement exercises held May 30 at Brentwood Baptist Church. The graduating seniors, who have earned more than $8 million in academic, athletic, leadership, and service scholarships (not including the Hope Scholarship), will matriculate to 43 different colleges and universities in the fall. Led by Headmaster Curt Masters, the graduation ceremonies featured a host of special awards and recognitions, including the awarding of diplomas to each graduate by Board of Trustees Chair Jon Billington. Each senior was honored with words from faculty and coaches who have built relationships with the students over the years.

In honor of Memorial Day, Mr. Masters began the morning by recognizing members of the military in the audience who have served our country. The Academy Singers, Brentwood Academy’s 16-member auditioned vocal ensemble, performed “Be Wise,” a favorite BA tradition. Graduating senior Jack Propst offered a special solo of “In Christ Alone.” Two seniors, Kayla Williamson and Cooper Smith, were chosen by their classmates to offer commencement addresses. In keeping with tradition, several awards were presented to graduating seniors to recognize special accomplishments and academic excellence: • Valedictorian (highest academic award): Sarah Friday (will attend the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill) • Salutatorian (second-highest academic award): Anna Stephens (will attend the University of Mississippi) • Andy Anderson Spiritual Life Award (recognizing Christ-like service): Madison Reynolds (will attend Samford University) • Carlton Flatt Male Athlete Award: Ryan Johnson (will attend the University of Tennessee Knoxville) • Carlton Flatt Female Athlete Award: Anna Stephens • Bill Brown Founders Award (highest honor recognizing commitment to all aspects of the mission—academics, athletics, and spiritual life): Brock Schoenwald (will attend the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill)

Each year, the Clyde Swift Faculty Award is presented to a teaching faculty member who demonstrates leadership and excellence in the classroom and who inspires students to reach their full potential. Dr. Rene Rochester, a member of the science department, was chosen by her peers for this year’s award.

COVER STO RY

“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.” — Henry David Thoreau

TRIANGLE

| Su mmer 2016

or the first time in Brentwood Academyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 47-year history, the school claimed a record six state championships in one school year. The accomplishment was undoubtedly one for the history books. However, trophies, rings, and records were not the motivation that drove these young men and women to strive for excellence. The relationships with one another and with their coaches were the unifying force behind this recordsetting year. The brotherhood and sisterhood developed through countless hours of practicing, conditioning, competing, and even losing together set the course for each team to rise to the challenge. Coaches set the vision and kept athletes focused on teamwork and glorifying God in the victories as well as the defeats. It was a year that helped shape character for many and will remain in the hearts of all for years to come...

“

The team embraced the belief that our races were about a unified effort and voice in which to glorify God. As the season neared its final meets, we became a team that understood faith on many levels. Faith in each other, faith to take a personal risk, and faith that, triumph or fail, Christ has us in his will for his purposes. On November 7, 2015, the varsity seven ran freely, knowing all God required was their best and that He would take care of the results.

A spectacular ‘three-peat’ team makes this year’s girls’ basketball accomplishment unique and one for the record books. Our main motto is: ‘the WE is greater than the me.’ Our philosophy is to always stress the ‘WE’ more than the ‘me’ when we practice, play, and compete. Though putting others first is difficult, the rewards show up in a unified team built on the strengths of self-sacrifice. When ‘the WE is greater than the me,’ the results produce a core group of players that becomes unstoppable, unselfish basketball competitors. – Head Coach Rhonda Brown

I believe this team lived out the model of what a true biblical community looks like. We have an amazing group of coaches and athletes who were willing to put the interests of the team before their own personal goals. Day after day, this group of coaches and young men took risks, often to do the behindthe-scenes job so that someone else might get the credit, ultimately for the good of the whole. My job was simply to get out of the way and let these men be and become who God intended them to be. It was an absolute blessing to get to watch them work. – Head Coach Brad Perry ‘92

They top their classes in ACT scores, AP exams scores, and service hours. They are passionate artists, musicians, poets, and Christ followers. Take a look beyond the trophies and championship rings to see how a few of our student-athletes find their passion off the practice fields, tracks, and courts.

Madison, along with her cross country team co-captain Mary Capers Elder ‘16, was voted “most inspirational” by her team this year. This is in part due to their commitment to volunteer work at Vanderbilt. Last summer, in order to be at Vanderbilt each day, the girls would have to put in extra-early or extra-late running time to reach their senior year summer mileage mark (300 miles). “Madison loves to serve others,” says Coach Cathy Cheeseman. “She represents the best of Christian leadership by pouring her heart into friends and the community. She sees people as beautiful works of her Father in heaven, woven together with the thread of relationships. In the fall, Madison will be a part of the first class of Micah Fellows at Samford University in which their primary mission is based on Micah 6:8.”

In addition to running and academics, photography has become a passion of Michael’s. “I got interested in photography several years ago when my dad, my sister and I bought a camera for my mom for Christmas,” says Michael. “There were so many dials and numbers and I didn’t know what any of them meant, so I decided to dig deeper. I pored through the manual, went online and discovered the art of taking better pictures. I found that I really enjoyed photography and most of all I loved appreciating the beauty that God has put on this earth. Now, I bring my camera with me wherever I go to try and share that beauty with others as much as I can.” Michael has most recently honed his craft while traveling in Belize for Winterim, in Honduras on several mission trips, and at Joshua Tree National Park.

“I really loved my fine arts experience at Brentwood Academy because of the people and how much was offered. I was in middle school choir and started in high school with trying out for Academy Singers. I was fortunate to make the group, and then they encouraged me to try out for the musicals. I really enjoyed Footloose largely due to the challenge of learning to dance. The cast was amazing and made all the practices enjoyable. I finished my fine arts career at BA with the improv show which was great because it was so different. BA does an outstanding job of offering a variety of channels for people to express themselves.”

Jeremiah Oatsvall has spent the majority of his middle and upper school years working with 147 Million Orphans, a foundation and ministry co-founded by his mother, Gwen. Each summer he takes time away from practice and training to travel and serve in third world countries. “I started traveling with my mom and her ministry, 147 Million Orphans Foundation, when I was 12 years old. I look forward to going to either Honduras or Uganda each summer. I have made friends there and love serving alongside them. If I have learned one thing over the years, it is that it is important to build relationships if you want to share Jesus with someone.”

“I got involved with Youth in Government in middle school. I remember how the older kids encouraged me to go, claiming it was a lot of fun. I really got involved in high school through Mrs. (Barbara) Stewart and also participated in Model United Nations. For three years I served in the General Assembly where my resolutions earned various awards, and one year it even made the top five out of the whole conference. My senior year I served as vice president and chaired committees at the General Assembly. My favorite part was getting to work with both my classmates and a diverse group of people from across the state, while having a lot of fun learning about how the United Nations works.”

As BA’s Salutatorian for the Class of 2016, Anna earned all A’s on her upper school transcript, having taken six AP courses and 12 honors level classes—all while competing in three team sports for BA. According to college counselor Ms. Courtney Jones, “Anna has established herself as an academic stalwart in the most competitive class that I have seen during my nine years at BA.” Her AP calculus teacher Mrs. Jamie Lee says, “Anna is a rare student who will not settle for anything less than full understanding of a concept. She is tenacious. Her attention to detail is exceptional.”

REACHING new HEIGHTS Out of more than 5,500 students and 400 schools nationwide, Brentwood Academy’s Speech and Debate team earned a School of Excellence Award at the 2016 Speech and Debate Association National Competition in Salt Lake City. The team award came after a week for the BA history books—five BA competitors qualified in four different categories for the top 14 (semifinals) out of 250 in each group: Maddie Jarrard ‘16 placed 10th in Original Oratory; Brandon Black ‘17 and Cooper Smith ‘16 placed 11th in Duo Interpretation; Kayla Williamson ‘16 placed 9th in Program Oral Interpretation; and Grace Smith ‘18 placed 10th in Humorous Interpretation.

This monumental effort concluded an unprecedented year with BA team members capturing mutiple championships at nationwide tournaments such as Harvard, Emory, Glenbrooks, and George Mason University. Under the leadership of Mr. Ryan Hubbard, BA had more national qualifiers this year (seven and three alternates) than any other team in Tennessee and earned half of the qualifying slots for the entire state in speech events. Five seniors, now alumni, take their experience and talent to five different universities, but with one common theme—participation in speech and debate has helped chart the course for their futures.

Jeffrey Williams

Texas Christian University

“I attribute forensics (speech and debate) to part of the reason I got my scholarship at TCU. When I had interviews, I was not as nervous since I spoke publicly on a regular basis.”

Maddie Jarrard

Northwestern University

“The amount of time, energy, and sacrifice that is required to be a great competitor is no easy feat, and colleges recognize that. Speech isn’t a hobby or a club; we call it a sport as a joke, but the dedication is real. Speech helped me develop a diverse set of skills that have shaped what I want to do with my life. I learned how to write, and I learned how to communicate.” Maddie was a four-time national qualifier.

Michael Rankin

“First semester of my sixth grade year, I came to Mr. Hubbard and he introduced me to an event called ‘storytelling.’ He gave me a script for ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’ which was right up my alley because in this version, Jack was a baseball player. The privilege to take the emotions of a character and display them for an audience and to create an entire story in 10 minutes is not an opportunity that you get very often.”

Nurturing the Mind of the Teacher

by Molly Martin

For the second year in a row, Mr. Mike Vazquez, BA’s newest history department chair, has been accepted to a week of intensive study at the prestigious Gilder Lehrman Institute Teacher Seminars on the campus of Columbia Unversity.

“

The Gilder Lehrman Institute is a nonprofit organization devoted to the improvement of history education and has developed extensive programming and resources for schools, teachers, and students. Reflecting on Gilder Lehrman Institute’s impact on his profession, Mr. Vazquez commented, “Nothing has contributed more to my teaching.” The summer Teacher Seminars offer educators from across the United States the opportunity to learn from leading experts in the field of history while developing critical professional relationships.

throughout the academic year. Involvement in the Teacher Seminar inspired Mr. Vazquez to reshape the way he teaches about the Great Depression, infusing the curriculum with new sources and activities to help his U.S. History students relate to the era on a personal level. This summer brings another transformative experience for Mr. Vazquez as he heads to Columbia University in New York City to immerse himself in the Reconstruction Era. This Teacher Seminar will be led by one of our country’s leading historians, Eric Foner, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and expert on the Reconstruction.

You are living and breathing history for a week and learning from the experts in the field. These are the big shots, the top scholars in the world.

Last summer, Mr. Vazquez had the honor of attending a Teacher Seminar at Stanford University led by historian David Kennedy. A select group of 12 educators spent a week exploring the Great Depression, an area of Kennedy’s expertise for which he won a Pulitzer Prize. Daily activities included four-hour morning lectures by Kennedy, afternoon projects and excursions, and lectures from Stanford professors on topics related to the Great Depression such as economics and Japanese internment camps.

“The experience is so invigorating!” said Vazquez. “You are living and breathing history for a week and learning from the experts in the field. These are the big shots—the top scholars in the world.” Mr. Vazquez also emphasized the importance of forming professional liaisons. He cultivated friendships with other team members with whom he has collaborated

Mr. Vazquez has been teaching history at Brentwood Academy for nine years. He joined the faculty after receiving a B.A. in religious studies with a minor in history from Messiah College in Mechanicsburg, PA, and a M.A. in American religious history from Wheaton College in Wheaton, IL. In addition to teaching world history and U.S. history honors, Mr. Vazquez coaches 6th grade boys’ basketball. For more information about the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History visit www.gilderlehrman.org. Brentwood Academy teachers extend heartfelt thanks to the BA community for giving to the Annual Fund which provides faculty with valuable continuing education.

SEW Spiritual Emphasis Week 2016

By Katherine Nesbitt ‘17

piritual Emphasis Week brought together a diverse group of speakers to present one message: we are all ordinary, but with God, we are extraordinary. From air-conditioning repairmen to school receptionists to cupcake bakers to bike riders to grandmothers, we all witnessed the power of God through his children, and we gained some valuable insights about life along the way. The week began with the time-honored tradition of Joe Campbell Service Day. Joe Campbell was a Brentwood Academy teacher who dedicated his entire life to serving others, and to honor his legacy as a servant, Brentwood Academy sets aside one day each semester for service in the community. Students in the middle and upper schools went to a variety of organizations, such as Second Harvest Food Bank, Fannie Battle Day Home for Children, Thrift Smart, Graceworks Ministries, and Show Hope, to give back to the community. On Monday, Mr. Bill Lee of Lee Company spoke about his life and the hardships that he has endured, including the death of his wife. Despite enormous loss, Mr. Lee remained an ordinary man, but God’s plan for his future prevailed, leaving him the successful owner of a growing business and ordaining him as a light to minister to others. Ms. Antoinette Tuff, the remarkable school receptionist who talked down a school shooter and saved the entire school, shared her unique testimony on Tuesday. Ms. Tuff left the student body with the message that God’s plan will prevail regardless of human circumstances. On the third day of Spiritual Emphasis Week, Ms. Gigi Butler, an entrepreneur and founder of the beloved Gigi’s Cupcakes, spoke on her God-given gift of tenacity and how it carried her through being a maid, a failed music career, and an almost-failed cupcake business.

Bailey Hand ‘16 Each year, the Joe Campbell Service Award is given to a senior who demonstrates qualities of service similar to those demonstrated by Joe Campbell. Bailey Hand ‘16 was presented with the award by Headmaster Curt Masters who noted, “Whether it is on athletic fields of BA, the hallways at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital, or an orphanage in Haiti, Bailey embodies Christ’s command to ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’”

This year’s school-wide service project, The Red Wagon Project at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital, provided dozens of opportunities for BA students to help bring smiles to the faces of young patients and their families. The combined efforts resulted in 150 donated DVDs, 1,000 mini toiletry items, 850 packs of crayons and markers, 200 bottles of bubbles, $1,000 in Christmas gifts, and $2,070 in cash raised from the clothing drive and Franklin Balloon Festival dunk tank.

Thursday was an exciting day in the Spiritual Emphasis Week line-up with Outcast, a group of BMX riders who minister to the dark world of BMX riding. Of course, the team had to do some tricks. A group of students, as well as Coach Cody White and Mr. Paul Compton, lay on the ground and felt a bike rider fly over their faces. However, the most important part of Outcast’s visit to BA was their testimony that you do not have to be an ordained preacher to be a testament to God’s mercy and goodness. On Grandparents’ Day, hundreds of grandparents came together to enjoy the week’s final speaker, Mrs. Phyliss Masters, the mother of our headmaster. Mrs. Masters wowed the entire audience with her phenomenal knowledge of scripture and shared about her life as a missionary and the results of a faithful study of God’s word. With a satisfied group of grandparents, parents, faculty, and students, Spiritual Emphasis Week ended on a high note.

FINE ARTS U P D AT E

Be Still Movement never fails to captivate. From dancing leaves to rolling waves, Motion is a reflection of the beating of our hearts And the expansion of our lungs. The earth never ceases in its revolutions The wind always sighs across our landscape Progress occurs in transit And we refuse to quench our yearning for adventure.

ART, POETRY, AND PROSE Each year, the visual arts and English departments collaborate to publish highlights from a year’s worth of student art, poetry, and prose. The result is a beautiful bouquet of talent that appeals to all of the senses and causes readers to pause...be still...and appreciate the beauty of a written word or a brush stroke. Flight, published by students, is the literary magazine featuring artwork, and short stories and poetry, like “Be Still” (left) written by Associate Editor Caroline Archer ‘17. Each April, the Commons is transformed into an art gallery to showcase works of art by students in a variety of visual arts classes and media—photography, mixed media, painting, drawing, sculpture and ceramics. “Arts in April,” culminates in an assembly where students are honored for their hard work. To request a copy of Flight, contact advisor Mrs. Cameron Phillips at cameron_phillips@brentwoodacademy.com or visit the BA media gallery for a digital copy: media.brentwoodacademy.com.

For these very reasons, it is too simple to ignore The faint whispers, “Be still...Be still...” For tranquility requires temperance, And soundlessness calls for sacrifice. But stillness continues to summon quietly And I wonder — Is there development in drawing near To a presence so often numbed by the noise? Could I find strength in times of simplicity, Or revival in my rest? Movement beckons, but the whisper remains. I must be still. “The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” Exodus 14:14 Caroline Archer ‘17

1973

This photo was taken in the fall of 1973 of a much smaller BA campus! The classroom building now houses science labs, college counseling offices, the learning center, and two additional classrooms. Back in 1973, students had to go outside to enter the free-standing gym, with locker rooms in the basement. The campus was just 20 acres. So much has changed since those early days as far as campus facilities are concerned, but much remains the same regarding the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission and philosophy.

ATHLETIC TRAINER

Extraordinaire

by Peggy Peden

Alan Killingsworth’s story of how he came to love sports medicine is one born out of caring for his severely disabled son, who passed away at age 19. His connection with kids and athletics brought him to BA where he has remained a steadfast figure on the sidelines and in the training room.

lan and his wife, Patti, had three children when they both decided to go back to school, Alan in physical therapy, his wife to law school. Alan had been providing 24/7 care for their oldest son, Jensen, who had severe disabilities, and Alan started back to school when Jensen was in first grade. As Jensen had very specialized needs, Alan volunteered to train someone to meet those needs at school. Two years into Killingsworth’s physical therapy program, the school lost its accreditation so Alan switched into nursing school and graduated in 1998. In 2001, Alan and Patti, after much prayer, decided to move the family to Nashville. “It was a God thing,” Killingsworth said. Jensen was a freshman at Fairview High School, and, once again, Killingsworth trained paraprofessionals to care for Jensen at school. In December of 2004, Jensen passed away at 19. Killingsworth’s experience as a primary care provider for Jensen helped him discover that he had a gift for working with kids. “I connected with them,” Killingsworth said. “Plus I liked athletics. I had been a three-sport athlete, and I had a nursing degree. It was a natural fit.” He began looking into a physical therapy degree again. When he went to talk with an MTSU professor in athletic training, she took him along with her to class, and, Killingsworth said, “I knew that’s what I was supposed to do.” Killingsworth’s experience and his nursing degree helped him finish the four-year MTSU physical therapy program in three years. Then, in the summer of 2007, he had the opportunity for an eight-week internship with the Atlanta Falcons. Killingsworth knew he didn’t want that life long-term. “It was just a business,” he said.

TRIANGLE

| Su mmer 2016

In Nashville, he went to work for Star Physical Therapy and soon found himself the athletic trainer for Brentwood Academy. He is now in his ninth season at Brentwood Academy and was recently brought on staff full-time. Killingsworth said, “I didn’t know a lot about the school except that athletics were really good. Brentwood Academy is unique. I had no idea of the spiritual component and how much a part of the school it is. It works from the top down. People here are believers, and we talk daily about that. “I appreciate the opportunity to connect with kids and to disciple them. And it’s fun. I love doing what I do. Coaches and people who work in athletics often have more influence on kids than teachers, pastors, and sometimes parents,” he says. “We’ve learned a lot about sports medicine,” he said “The most important thing we can do to prevent sports injuries is to make sure kids stay hydrated.” Killingsworth also conducts an ACL injury prevention clinic. “Girls are more susceptible to ACL injuries, so we conduct a jump training certification course. They learn proper techniques for jumping and landing. Muscle memory plays an important part of the process.” Head injuries are a hot topic in high school athletics. “Unfortunately, we can’t prevent all head injuries,” Killingsworth said, “but we can lower the risk. We know a lot more about concussions than we did ten years ago. We do neurocognitive baseline screenings now so we can see how impaired an athlete really is. We teach tackling techniques and neck strengthening.” Tennessee has passed its first-ever concussion law. Killingsworth was part of the committee that helped draft the first state-wide policies on student athletes’ head injuries.

“I appreciate the opportunity to connect with kids and disciple...I love doing what I do. Coaches and people who work in athletics often have more influence on kids than teachers, pastors, and sometimes parents.”

Talking to BA students and parents, you will find great respect for Killingworth’s abilities to help train and prevent injuries and to be there when injuries do occur.

Why do you teach? I love French and sharing that joy with my students, many of whom I teach three or four years. I love getting to know my students so well, and I cherish the relationships I have with them, some of which last well beyond their high school years. What is one thing you want your students to know when they graduate? I want them to understand the value of making wise choices so that they can fully realize their personal, academic, and professional potential. Tell us a little about your travel experience. When I was a child, my parents bought an Airstream trailer and took us on many family trips throughout the United States and Canada. Not too long after college, I spent an unforgettable summer in Europe with two girlfriends. I have been to France countless times, many of those with BA students. I especially love Paris, Normandy, and the south of France. What is the best advice ever given to you? Never underestimate the power of a kind word.

ORDER of the EAGLE The purpose of the athletic program at Brentwood Academy is to foster physical development and athletic skills while teaching the value of personal discipline, character, commitment, and the subordination of self-interest to the higher goal of team achievement. Participation on a Brentwood Academy athletic team requires a great deal of personal sacrifice. The contribution required to participate on multiple teams is extraordinary because of the academic rigors that are no less demanding. The Order of the Eagle honors student athletes who letter in three or more varsity sports while maintaining a 2.5 or higher cumulative GPA in any given year. Students who accomplish this during their senior year receive a commemorative award. On May 26, Athletic Director Cody White recognized 11 student-athletes who have met these qualifications. Three, who are seniors, received a special ring and their names will be on permanent display in the athletic center along with the eight underclassmen.

A FATHER and SON REFLECTâ&#x20AC;¦

TRIANGLE

| Su mmer 2016

(Editor’s Note: the following article, with edits, appeared in the Nashville Family Christian Magazine and features BA faculty member and alumnus Matt Brown ’97 and his father, Dr. David Brown, sharing thoughts on fatherhood).

Dr. Brown: What attributes would you use to describe your son and what he means to you? In every generation God seemingly places on this earth a few gifted individuals. Matt, in my opinion, is one of those people. God used Matt to help those of us less gifted to learn from Him in different areas of our life. Matt was awarded the Founders Award at Brentwood Academy at his high school graduation for being that person who exhibited above all others his athleticism, spiritual growth and academic performance. These together are how I describe my son. He stole my heart at his birth and I will never get it back as long as we live. What is one of your favorite memories with your son from his childhood? Oh, so many memories! Since Matt and I love sports, I remember the day when he was six years old, playing soccer, and he out-ran all of his teammates for the first time. Everyone on the sidelines knew the fast little guy would win. The coach lined them up on the side of the field, blew the whistle and off they went and by midfield, Matt was smoking the entire team! His chest and mine swelled that day! How do the two of you spend time together now? Matt and I, even with our busy schedules, find one or two nights a week to eat dinner together. In the fall, we watch college football together. We spend time on our family vacations shooting pistols on the farm or, when we have time, playing golf. Just sitting and talking with him is one of the major joys of my life. What attributes of your son do you strive to have in your own life and why? I want to be the Christ-like example to others that Matt is. I want to know the Scriptures in depth like him. He can glean the hidden treasures in a verse of Scripture better than anyone I know. My mother, his grandmother, read the Bible through 54 times and some areas even more. They say acquired characteristics can’t be inherited – well, God has His ways because Matt knows the Word, and the Word is in him. Matt is full of kindness, mercy, and love for others that I want more of in my own life.

tinuing to teach the Word of God, counseling those who need spiritual direction and I believe with all my heart, he will be writing those books of encouragement to those who need it. I am encouraging him to publish some of his writings. God has it all in his timing! I am so proud to see Matt investing in the lives of the students at Brentwood Academy and young people around him, at a time when they are questioning more than ever, ‘is there a God?’ I pray for him daily for God to give him wisdom in speaking the truth to those students and also in leading his family.

Matt Brown ‘97, teacher and coach at Brentwood Academy: What attributes would you use to describe your father and what he means to you? My dad is one of the hardest working people I know, and his faith and his family have always been his top priorities. He is a provider, a giver, and a prayer warrior for all of us. What is one of your favorite memories with your father? I have so many, but most of my favorite childhood memories with my dad revolve around playing sports in the backyard, fishing, or working with my dad on our farm in the evenings or on weekends. How do the two of you spend time together now? My wife, Bri, and I try to meet up with my parents for breakfast or lunch as much as we can, or cook out at their house. These days, most of the attention and conversation surrounds our daughter, Eliana, who always talks about wanting to go to “Papa’s house.” It’s so much fun watching my parents now getting to love on Eliana and watching that relationship grow! What characteristics of your father do you hope to have in your life and instill in your children and why? I hope to grow into (and pass on) my father’s consistency, dependability, generosity, and wisdom. I want to emulate his devotion to God and family, because these are the most formative, life-orienting, sustaining, and identity-producing relationships in our lives. On a completely different note, he makes one of the best steaks around and I still can’t figure out how he does it! If you could tell the world anything about your father what would it be? I couldn’t have asked for a better father and mentor.

If you could tell the world anything about your son, what would it be? Look out world, here he comes! God is using Matt in his job of teaching Bible, and I see Matt con-

“

We thought there was pent up demand for building relationships among different generations of the BA community, but we had no idea how much, or how fast it might develop. Wow! So far we have had four opportunities: BAConnect in the Gulch, BAConnect in Maryland Farms and two Saturday Men’s Breakfasts. Between 50-100 alumni, parents of alumni, grandparents, current parents, faculty, and former trustees have attended each event. Is has been great to see old relationships rekindled and new friendships formed. There is something special about being a part of the BA community and having opportunities for multiple generations to intersect. These BAConnect events will continue to vary in location and time so that more of us will have the opportunity to be a part of the experience. Special thanks to David Minnigan ‘75 and Mickey Jacobs, parent of alumni, for helping host the Gulch and Maryland Farms events. Check your email for upcoming BAConnect events in the near future. —Ray Mullican ‘80

BAPA Wishlist Brentwood Academy Parents’ Association (BAPA) has a tradition of giving that upholds and honors trust in the school leadership. Each year, through community-building events, BAPA is able to raise funds and present a check to the Headmaster to utilize at his discretion. Curt Masters invites the faculty to submit their “wish list” items. This year, through support from the Art Show and Golf Tournament, BAPA presented the school with a $90,000 donation. Here are a few “wish list” items and examples of the impact this year:

“For the past 15 years, BAPA has funded an average of $10,000 worth of instruments each year. Over the years, I saw that it wouldn’t take too much for us to have enough instruments for all of the first-year students in beginning band. This is a huge blessing not only because it takes the financial burden off of the families, but also because we are able to supply high quality used instruments. As far as we know, we are one of just two schools in middle Tennessee that are able to supply all beginning band instruments for free.”

– Matt Nygren, Band

“The new electronic science curriculum will greatly enhance our earth unit through the use of classroom iPads and computers. In addition to the new science standards incorporated, the program provides many cross-curricular opportunities. Students will also stay on the cutting-edge of science news through e-texts that provide immediate, automatic updates when news articles are released or events occur that relate to the curriculum, such as the recent earthquakes in Japan and Ecuador.” – Kristin Phillips, Science

“The new kiln for the Art House will accommodate the growing number of art students and will enable us as teachers to give students the full benefit of a well-rounded art program. We are very grateful to BAPA for making this possible and enabling us to offer all realms of two- and three-dimensional art to our students. We believe that the total art experience is beneficial to our curriculum, and we are so grateful for the support of our administration and parents!”

Vivat Veritas Society LET TRUTH PREVAIL

In the Brentwood Academy formative days back in the early ‘70s, the idea of planned giving to the school was low in priority. “Just staying afloat through God’s grace consumed time and prayer, with a belief that the mission of Brentwood Academy was meant to be,” says Headmaster Emeritus Bill Brown. With this presevering spirit, it seems fitting that the school’s motto is Vivat Veritas: Let Truth Prevail. Financially, much has changed since those beginning years. But one thing has remained constant—those who believe in the mission of the school give financially with willing and cheerful hearts. “Relationships formed between school leaders, faculty, parents, and friends remain the catalyst for giving to Brentwood Academy. This is still key to the life of the school,” Mr. Brown explains. At Brentwood Academy, our Vivat Veritas Society honors those who have given to the Endowment or named BA as a beneficiary in their will. Mr. and Mrs. Brown (pictured above) are a part of Vivat Veritas Society. If you have made this commitment to the legacy of BA, we want to include you at a celebration planned for Spring 2017. If you would like to be included in the Vivat Veritas Society celebration, please contact Ray Mullican (ray_mullican@brentwoodacademy.com).

Dr. Bill Wadlington Brentwood Academy Honorary Trustee and past Board Chair Dr. Bill Wadlington passed away on May 18, 2016. He is survived by wife, Anna Vantrease Wadlington; children, Amy Wadlington Bayles ‘76 (Skip), Van Russell Wadlington ‘78 (Shannon), John Wadlington ‘80, Jeffrey Deen Wadlington ‘81 (Cindy); and grandchildren, Mallory Bayles Mallin, Kelly Bayles, Colson Bayles, Mazi Wadlington, Brett and Tyler Wadlington, and Anna Wadlington. Headmaster Emeritus Bill Brown writes: Bill was unique, humble, sound, service-driven, open-minded—a person who loved his Lord, family, and Brentwood Academy. Back in the early 70’s he and his family first interviewed with children academically qualified to go to any college prep school in Nashville. Thankfully, they chose Brentwood Academy, still in our struggling beginnings. Bill Wadlington was always looking for positive solutions to those early issues as the school struggled to discover who God intended it to be. When we were going through rocky waters, as most beginning schools do, he supported the dream. He seemed to overlook the insignificant and focus on the big picture. As I sat in his memorial service, I could not help but think how perfect it was that all four of his children spoke. He was a family man. I could not help but tear up as I watched Anna, his wife, listen as each of his children shared a life lesson that they remembered from his example. So simple, yet so deep and meaningful as one reflects. Dr. Wadlington attended Vanderbilt University. He was drafted from there into the army in 1945 and served eight months in Tokyo, Japan. He then returned to Vanderbilt where he was a member of the class of 1948, lettering in football, basketball, and tennis. He attended Vanderbilt Medical School, graduating in 1952. He was the first pediatrician to join the Canby Robinson Society. He was a member of AOA fraternity, the Phi Beta Kappa medical honor society. The Tennessee Medical Association chose him as Physician of the Year in May 2003, the Tennessee Pediatric Society chose him as Pediatrician of the Year in 1988, he won the exchange Club "Book of Golden Deeds" award in 1989, and Sertoma International gave him the "Service to Mankind" award in 1971 for his missions work. At Vanderbilt, he helped start the Christie Society and was president for the first five years. The conference room at the new Vanderbilt Children's Hospital is named for him. Dr. Wadlington served on the Board of Trustees of the Adventure Science Center and received an award for founding the Health Hall there. He served as Chairman of the Board of the Donelson YMCA, Chairman of the YMCA Heritage Foundation, and President of the middle Tennessee YMCA. He was a recipient of the YMCA Order of the Red Triangle (its highest honor) in 1988.
