a message from

Gardner Barrier Dear FCDS Community, What you are going to find in this edition of Amidst the Trees is remarkable –a fitting reflection of the school community whose story it tells. I found myself nodding in agreement with the quotes and comments found on the pages that follow. We get to honor the service and sacrifice of our Furies who serve or have served our country. We highlight the incredible benefits of Conversational Spanish in the Lower School – giving our students not only a jump-start on language learning, but on relating with people across the world who are different from us. As Señora Ortiz-Thompson put it so beautifully in the article: “It helps you see and speak in grays instead of blacks and whites. You’re more adaptable, respectful, and humble.” Yes!

We discuss our investment in our growing engineering

program, recently expanded into the Middle School and into a newly renovated and repurposed Engineering Center, and we pay tribute to a woman whose legacy will always live at FCDS: the late Carolyn Spencer. Mrs. Spencer was a beloved teacher, and many of us had the good fortune of being in her class. We remember how she was there for us, all that she taught us, and all that she gave to her students and to our school. Take care, happy reading, and go Furies!

In Lower School world languages, the kids are always talking. And that’s a good thing. Conversational Spanish relies on having relatable conversations that focus on real-life situations. “We teach in a natural way,” said Maria Theresa Ortiz-Thompson, who developed the Lower School world language curriculum and teaches second to fourth graders. “We don’t focus on the parts of speech. If you speak to one another and tell stories, you access the vocabulary through the story, and you retain it better. Grammar and vocabulary come instinctively.” In Señora Ortiz’s classroom one September morning, a huge, colorful map of South America was pulled up on the SmartBoard and second graders were learning about the countries of that continent.

“¿Cuántos países hay en Sudamérica?” Señora Ortiz asked. “¿Dies?” one student volunteered. “Un poco mas,” Señora Ortiz replied. When they arrived at the correct answer (13), she gave a high five:“Dame cinco!” Second graders learn about the countries of South America almost entirely in Spanish, and combining conversation with additional subject matter – like geography – is key. “It’s helpful to teach the language combined with another subject,” she said. “It helps them to make connections.” Making those connections – and learning language in general – is far easier when you’re young, Señora Ortiz said. “Your brain is so pliable at a young age. It’s been shown time and again that your brain stores your native language in addition to any second, third, or fourth language you learn in

the same part of your brain until age 12. When you learn young, you don’t have to consciously transition from the native language to another language.” Additionally, early language learning provides a jump-start on sounding like a native. “When you learn language early, you get the tone, melody, and accent of a native,” Señora Ortiz said. “Later, you need to work at that.” Shelia Shearin, who teaches children in preschool twice a week and kindergarten and first graders daily, agreed. “It’s the perfect time to introduce a second language,” she said. “It’s a huge benefit that helps not only with the acquisition of Spanish, but the English language.” Exposing children to a second language and making it fun are the main goals when teaching the preschool students, but when they get to kindergarten and first grade, the focus is on the conversation. “I’ll ask them what they had for dinner last night,” she said. “Rather than drilling and drilling, we have conversations in Spanish, which is meaningful. It helps so much with retention, as does having Spanish every day.” According to Lower School Director Dennis Moser, this kind of world language learning is not common. “Public schools, with the exception of a few immersion programs, don’t have world languages in elementary school anymore,” he said. “It’s a huge advantage for our kids.” As students progress to third and fourth grade, they build upon the knowledge gained in previous years. “It does become more prescribed,” Dr. Moser said. “It increases in complexity and construction as we build upon the previous year’s concepts. “ In third grade, he said, students are using full sentences and writing biographies. That’s the year that they transition from beginners to intermediate language learners, Señora Ortiz said. “When you make the transition from beginner to intermediate, you ask them questions. By fourth grade, they’re the ones asking the questions. I hope to instill in the children a love for language, for words, for meaning.” But it always stays fun. “This is a very interactive classroom,” Señora Ortiz said. “We use puppets and costumes, watch

videos, and read stories.” Third grader Sophie Wyschner appreciates that. “We always do a lot of fun games, and we get to solve puzzles,” she said. She loves to learn new words. “It’s really cool that even though we all have different languages, we can all learn to talk to each other.” By the time they get to Middle School – fifth grade at FCDS – they’re ready. Fifth and sixth grade Spanish teacher Kristin Boone said she has seen a dramatic increase in students’ proficiency since the school started daily Conversational Spanish. “The way it’s set up now, students have the freedom to really live up to their potential as language learners,” Señora Boone said. “They can express themselves and communicate in another language. They have a lot of vocabulary now. They have a great base and they’re ready to express their own ideas by the time they get to fifth grade.” Fourth grader Carter Nance enjoys speaking in a different language and expressing his ideas. “I get to learn to talk to people in a different country,” he said. “It’s important to learn another language to communicate and solve problems.” The appreciation of Spanish-speaking cultures and a respect and appreciation for cultural differences in general is another significant benefit. “Part of language learning is the culture. We learn and respect that there are different people with different languages and ways of doing things,” Señora Shearin said. “That opens up a lot of curiosity about the world for these children.” Señora Ortiz, who is herself a native of Bolivia, said that learning a second language opens up your world to understanding the diversity of perspectives that exist. “It helps you see and speak in grays instead of blacks and whites,” she said. “You’re more adaptable, respectful, and humble.” Dr. Moser concurred. “We really want our children to gain cultural awareness so that they appreciate the beauty of difference and the value of diversity.”

2017 Alumna Named U.S. Presidential Scholar

FCDS Student Accepted to N.C. Governor’s School

Congratulations to Charlotte Thomas ’17, who was named one of four Presidential Scholars in North Carolina and one of only 161 in the United States. The U.S. Presidential Scholars Program honors the nation’s most distinguished graduating high school seniors. Scholars are selected for the honor based on superior academic achievement (including “exceptionally high” scores on the ACT or SAT), essays, artistic excellence, school transcripts and evaluations, as well as leadership, a demonstrated commitment to high ideals, and community service, according to the White House Commission on Presidential Scholars. Charlotte traveled to Washington, D.C. in late June, where she met First Lady Melania Trump, toured the White House (including rooms usually closed to the public), visited the National Mall, and attended a special concert by the 2017 Presidential Scholars in the Arts at the Kennedy Center. Congratulations to Charlotte on this wonderful accomplishment and opportunity!

Congratulations to Ella Fowler ’18, who was accepted to N.C. Governor’s School for English. “Ella is a gifted reader and writer,” said English Department Chair Tamara Harrington. “She’s a deep thinker who will benefit tremendously from the opportunities offered by Governor’s School. I’m so excited for and proud of her.” Ella attended Governor’s School East at Meredith College for six weeks this summer.

Middle School Musicians Ride High at Carowinds The FCDS Middle School Orchestra and Chorus earned very high ratings at a May adjudication at Carowinds, with the Middle School Chorus taking first place overall in the Middle School Mixed Chorus category. After the adjudication, the students enjoyed the rest of day at the amusement park. Congratulations to these students and to their teachers, Mr. Aaron Craven and Ms. Virginia Lee!

Senior Finishes Eighth in World Aquathon Championships Congratulations to Daniel Snyder ’18 for finishing eighth in the 16-19 age group in a 1K open-water swim and a 5K run at the World Aquathon Championships –part of the ITU Multisport World Championship Festival in Penticon, British Columbia.

Yosemite Trip Provides a Positive Challenge to 11 Students Middle School history teacher and cross-country coach Joe Scott and athletic trainer Kevin Westwood led 11 FCDS students on a backpacking trip through Yosemite National Park this spring. The trip was part of the FCDS Discovery Week program designed to engage students in learning, culture, community, and physical activity outside of the classroom. “The trip was supposed to be challenging – to push people in way they hadn’t been pushed before,” Mr. Scott said. “Everyone faced a few challenges, but none were greater than what they could handle.” The group hiked a total of about 25 miles through the beautiful backcountry, enjoying incredible views of iconic Half Dome and Yosemite Falls. The high elevation and significant elevation changes as well as the 40-50 pound packs the hikers carried added to the physical challenge. At the end of each day in the backcountry, hikers worked as a team to set up their tents, collect and filter water, and clean up so that they left no trace in the pristine park. “It was a very positive thing,” Mr. Scott said. “I think everyone came back from it having gained a better sense of who they are and what they’re capable of.”

Engineering What’s Ahead

It’s fifth period, and Dr. Michelle Klosterman’s seventh grade engineering students are thinking hard. How can they build a model car that can travel 5 feet without the intervention of human touch? Working in teams, they’ve brainstormed, come up with ideas, and now, they’re bringing those ideas to life. Some kids work at tables, measuring and cutting and

taping, while others take their work to the floor, or out into the giant common area where both Middle and Upper School students can test their designs. Dr. Klosterman, FCDS’s Associate Head of School for Academic Affairs (and whose undergraduate degree is in biomedical engineering), circulates the room, and if she sees

crucial flaws in her students’ designs, she doesn’t say so. Many of them will fail, and that’s just a part of the process. “Failing is a part of life,” said seventh grader Ana Calderon. “You get to do things you wouldn’t normally. Failing is still scary but it’s something you need to accept. Nobody’s perfect. It teaches you good lessons – what not to do the next time.”

One of Dr. Klosterman’s rules is that her students write down all their ideas in pen, not pencil. “She says there are no erasable ideas,” said Ally Svetitz, also a seventh grader. “There are no bad ideas because one idea leads to the next. It’s a really fun experience.” Creating an atmosphere in which failure is just a part of

learning has always been central to the FCDS engineering program, but with the creation of the FCDS Engineering Center and the expansion of the program into the Middle School, the teaching of skills that apply both to engineering and life –like learning to fail – has become more deliberate. “The engineering program is something Joe Trotter has done a great job of setting up and dreaming what it could be,” Dr. Klosterman said. For years, Mr. Trotter worked out of one cramped Upper School classroom with sophomores, juniors, and seniors in a three-year engineering academy that turned out students who were ready to attend engineering school. The preparation part hasn’t changed. What has changed is the desire to bring all kinds of students – future engineers or not – into the program so they can learn the vital skills it teaches. “I haven’t gotten anything right the first time I’ve done it,” said senior Ben Holt, who’s in his third year of Upper School engineering. “We’ve learned to problem solve and make things work with what we have.” In addition, he’s learned collaboration and teamwork. “Our vison is to develop creative problem solvers who persevere but also understand the greater contributions of what they do,” Dr. Klosterman said. “Not all students who take engineering in Middle School will come away wanting to be engineers. It’s all about exploration and gaining the skills engineers use in their work and applying them to your life.” The expanded engineering program will also feature a more pronounced connection to entrepreneurship. “It teaches you to persevere; it gives you grit,” said Director of Entrepreneurship Nathan Battle. “There are going to be times when you go through the process and your machine doesn’t work out as intended. That happens all the time in entrepreneurship and in engineering. Successful entrepreneurs are people who fail constantly and learn quickly. Engineering gives you the skills to work through the problems.” Mr. Trotter sees it the same way. “An engineer might design things, but the entrepreneur might determine the problems that need to be solved. Then you’ve got an idea, and how do you market that? If you get the entrepreneur and the engineer together, you have the whole process.” “Can they identify a problem? Get creative and solve that problem? If it doesn’t work, can they go back and figure out why?” Mr. Trotter asked. “Every person needs the ability to do these things. Now that we’ve got a facility, we can open the program up a lot.” In seventh and eighth grade engineering, students do four to five different hands-on projects using accessible daily objects, then choose one they want to take to market. Dr. Klosterman’s seventh graders will focus on environmental engineering because it builds on what they learned in sixth grade. In eighth grade engineering (taught by Middle School science teacher Shama Whitley) the focus is on expanding what they studied in seventh grade science. “When talking about the design process – ask, imagine, plan, create, improve – we’ve even infused character development,” Mrs. Whitley said. “We have our students ask, ‘What’s the goal? How can we help’?” “One example is a water filtration system that costs less than

X and can’t use metal,” Dr. Klosterman said. “They have to make a plan and then justify it. What’s the value? Is it how quickly it filters the water? How well? What’s the metric for success? That’s part of their pitch.” Eighth graders will be working on projects that build on physics and astronomy. “They are designing a device that carries crutches,” Mrs. Whitley said. “These things are useful. They improve life and create solutions to people’s problems.” “It expands the purpose of the program and meets our mission,” Dr. Klosterman agreed. In Upper School, engineering consists of three distinct classes – Introduction to Engineering, Honors Robotics, and Honors

“

What sets the FCDS engineering program apart from other STEM programs is its originality....we give kids the freedom to create. We ask ‘What are you going to create? Why are you going to create it’? —Nathan Battle, Director of Entrepreneurship

”

Engineering III. “During the first half of Introduction to Engineering, Mr. Trotter teaches them a lot of different skills. They learn about electricity, circuits, programming, basic woodworking…they know how to make a circuit,” Mr. Battle said. “In the second semester, he flips it and says ‘What are you going to do with this knowledge’?” Mr. Battle will work with Mr. Trotter and his Upper School students as they get into this entrepreneurial side of engineering. “They’ll look at what they can do, find a need, and create something that will actually fill that need.” Possibly the best thing about FCDS’s engineering program is the freedom teachers and administrators had to create it. “What sets the FCDS engineering program apart from other STEM programs is its originality,” Mr. Battle said. “It’s not a cookie-cutter program. Most STEM programs come locked and loaded: ‘Here, follow the instructions and build your robot’. We give kids the freedom to create. We ask ‘What are you going to create? Why are you going to create it’?” Now that Forsyth Country Day School has moved its program to a large, state-of-the-art facility built specifically for engineering work, the sky’s the limit for what students will be able to do.

“We have so many resources we’re able to use now,” Ben said. “We have a lot more room to work. Everything is more organized. I think it’s a nicer facility to work in.” “The space allows for more collaboration,” Dr. Klosterman said. “It’s the kind of space you need for kids with limitless ideas and potential.” It’s also the kind of space that begs to be shared – and not just with the Forsyth Country Day School community. “The new engineering center will allow us to engage more with the community,” Dr. Klosterman said. “In the very short term, we see engineering camps for our students and the broader community. We see strategic partnerships that would allow us to provide access to the engineering center to others.” Head of School Gardner Barrier agreed. “Having an engineering center can benefit not just Forsyth Country Day School and its students, but the greater good.” Mr. Barrier said. “Lots of students have come through that program and gone off to become successful engineers, but we want to get as many kids into the engineering center as possible, thinking critically and flexing their problem-solving muscles. The kind of thinking you do in an engineering class is good for everyone.”

Donor Profile: Why WE Give The Martin Family Dr. David and Sue Martin – generous, long-time supporters of FCDS – dedicated the Martin College Counseling Office in honor of their two alumnae daughters, Lizzie’09 and Sarah ’11. Here’s why they give long after their daughters have graduated. “Forsyth Country Day School has given so much to our family: teachers, administrators, coaches, and advisors at FCDS supported our daughters throughout and beyond their time at the school,” Sue said. “After learning to be active, responsible community members at FCDS, they have been empowered to engage in numerous communities. This is one of many ways in which the school helped to prepare them for college.” Dr. Martin agreed. “The spirit of collaborative, compassionate learning is something we have always loved about the school.” From playing at Sunny Brook and Shady Brook to swimming on the swim team and playing in the orchestra together, the two “lifers” gained a life-long love of learning. “Forsyth Country Day School gave them the opportunity to chase many of their dreams,” Sue said. “We are thankful to have the opportunity to contribute to FCDS’s work to make similar dreams accessible to future classes of students.”

Fury Flashback

When alumni come back to campus for a visit, many head straight for the Middle School hallway to see the colorful, student-created tiles on the walls. During a past fundraiser, a $100 donation got the benefactor a tile they could design and have fired, then installed as a piece of permanent artwork. On this page are a few that caught our eyes. Have you been back to see yours?

SERVING OUR COUNTRY: Furies in the Military

Stan Coerr ’85 calling in a live air strike in 2003. Interesting note: Andrew Turner ’95 was about a mile away at the time this photo was taken.

After graduating from Forsyth Country Day, alumni seek careers in diverse fields. Many make impressive contributions to their organizations, to their field, or even to society. None make as profound a sacrifice as those featured in this piece: Furies who join the Unites States Armed Forces. Amidst the Trees spoke to five alumni who serve or have served in four different branches of the military to get their story. Kevin Reinemund ’12 – United States Marines “I have always wanted to serve,” said Kevin Reinemund ’12. “I believe it is really important to serve others somehow in life.” His father was a Marine and both of his grandfathers served in the Army. “I remember sneaking into the attic when I was little and going through old military boxes that belonged to my grandparents and my dad,” Kevin said. “I would put on the medals or the camouflage hats that were way too big for me and run around the woods.” Determined to become a Marine like his father, Kevin attended the United States Naval Academy, which trains officers for the Navy and the Marines. “The first year [at the Academy] was a wake-up call,” he said. “It is a tough transition from high school into the military.” The biggest challenge for Kevin at the Academy was accepting the fact that he wasn’t a normal college student. “I couldn’t go out each night. I couldn’t go home whenever I wanted. I couldn’t grow my hair out or grow the beard that I’ve always wanted. I couldn’t wear whatever I wanted,” he said. “Once I truly understood that I was serving for others, everything else fell into place.” Kevin grew to love the Academy. “I loved my time there,” he said. “I learned the importance of discipline, selflessness, and commitment.” The best part of his time in Annapolis was the close bond Kevin formed with his classmates. “At the Academy, we all had to live on base in the barracks and could not leave until the weekend. We had no choice but to tough it out together,” he said. “I know the friends that will always have my back, and that is so important because in the near future, we will need each other when we’re in harm’s way.” Kevin graduated from the Naval Academy with the Class of 2017 and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Marines. “I am most looking forward to leading young Marines and having an impact on them.” The FCDS Experience “Forsyth helped solidify my desire to serve my country because of some mentors that I met along the way,” Kevin said. “Guys like the Watson brothers (Stout ’11 and Johnny ’09, both Navy SEALS), who wrestled and serve in the Navy, or some of my close friends like Matt [Reyes ’12] and Jack [Young ’12] who wanted to serve as well.” FCDS also challenged Kevin academically. “I learned the importance of organization and time management,” he said, admitting that he didn’t always use his time wisely at FCDS and probably spent too much time playing basketball in the Childress Activities Center and not enough time studying. “FCDS is a great school because it is challenging, and the teachers truly

care about their students and will sit down and help people like me who needed extra attention.” One of those teachers was Susan Trotter. “Mrs. Trotter patiently tutored me and taught me the importance of organization and good study habits,” Kevin said. “I would not have succeeded at Forsyth or beyond without her.” Jack McHale, who was Kevin’s basketball coach, also helped to shape him. “He was a vital role model in my life, and he made playing fun,” Kevin said. “Coach McHale inspired everyone to not only work effectively as a team, but to give it everything we had and defeat the opponent. He also taught me and many others the importance of looking out for one another, on and off the court. That is a lesson I carry with me to this day.”

Jack Young ’12 in his junior year at the Air Force Academy.

Jack Young ’12 – Unites States Air Force Like Kevin, Jack Young considered military service from an early age. His grandfather was an Air Force Pilot for 21 years, so while in Upper School at Forsyth, Jack became interested in the Air Force Academy. Upon graduation from FCDS, he went to UNC-Charlotte for two years before following that call and starting college over again as a cadet. “Being a cadet at the U.S. Air Force Academy has been the most challenging and rewarding experience in my life,” Jack said. His days are strictly routinized, with set times for waking up and uniform inspection (6:30 a.m.), classes (7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.), with lunch at noon daily. After classes, cadets have military training or play a required sport. There are definite perks to the Air Force Academy, though. Jack has soloed in two different aircraft, completed survival and evasion training, and worked basic cadet training. “Balancing a 19-21- credit-hour semester with military and physical training is definitely the most challenging part of being a cadet, but that also means it’s very rewarding,” he said.

After graduation in spring 2018, Jack will commission as a second lieutenant in the Air Force. He plans to become either a civil engineer or go to pilot training. “I am looking forward to starting to do what I’ve been training for these last four years, which is to be a military officer and lead airmen,” he said.

out. “If we were doing a larger operation, I would move out with them and control the operation from a central location. We would track the units with GPS and radios, watch over them with drones. If anything happened, if they needed Medivac support or other help, we made sure it was called in.” Being deployed to a war zone was a very isolating experience,

The FCDS Experience “I think Forsyth Country Day did have an impact on me wanting to serve,” Jack recalled. “I remember having a good amount of pride in my country throughout high school. Developing this sense of pride is what made me first interested in serving.” Jack said that his time at FCDS helped him succeed at the Air Force Academy both academically and physically. “I learned that I was much more prepared for the demanding academic load at USAFA than a lot of people were,” he said. “I attribute that to my time at FCDS. Also, playing football, basketball, and running track at FCDS gave me the tools needed to excel in the physical training here.” Jack has found his time at the USAFA so rewarding that he highly recommends the experience to others. “I would like to encourage more students at Forsyth Country Day to consider a service academy,” he said. Tyler Van Zandt ’04 – United States Army Tyler was born into a military family – his grandfather was in World War II, and his father was an Air Force officer when Tyler was born. “Military service was a part of my life, and it was a passion of mine to join the military.” In Upper School at Forsyth Country Day, he wrestled under Coach Pat Rimron. “Coach Rimron became a mentor in high school,” Tyler said. “He’s probably one of the biggest reasons I joined the Army.” When Tyler was a junior, Major Rimron deployed to Afghanistan, and Tyler’s desire to join the U.S. Army solidified. He went to Wake Forest on a four-year Army ROTC scholarship and was commissioned as a second lieutenant when he graduated. He spent a few months working at Wake, then was sent to Ft. Leonard Wood in Missouri, the home of the Army’s engineers. “I was commissioned as a combat engineer officer, and that’s where I did my officer basic training.” After that, he went to Alaska for three years, then to the Phillipines, Japan, and Peru. Being an engineer in the Army means one of two things. “On one side, you can be in construction; on the flip side, you can do counterexplosives. It’s a unique job where you can do a bit of everything.” In the Phillipines, Tyler helped to build a medical clinic, and in Peru, the engineers trained Peruvian soldiers to find and destroy IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices). Fort Bragg was his next stop, and there – as in Alaska – he was paratrooper. “I loved it,” Tyler said. “It was probably one of my favorite things to do. It’s one of the biggest things I miss.” In 2013, Tyler deployed to Afghanistan for ten months with the 307th Engineer Battalion. “Our job was route clearance,” he said. “We would keep the routes clear, look for IEDs, and clear them.” As the current operations officer, one of his primary jobs was to track the battlefields.” Tyler would send groups

Tyler Van Zandt ’04 – United States Army

Tyler said. “It’s chaotic, and it’s secluded from the rest of the world. To this day you could tell me about things that happened in 2013 and I don’t remember it well.” On the other hand, the things he experienced in combat are crystal clear. “I can tell you about the firefights my guys were in. I can still remember getting calls about buses getting hit by bombs. In terms of the people I was there with, it was an amazing year,” he said. “You work with amazing men and women in the Army.” As an officer (Tyler rose to the rank of captain in the Army and retains that rank in the Army Reserve), Tyler was a platoon leader in charge of 55 soldiers. “Maybe it’s just a different perspective of leadership, but I think I showed a lot of guys that you can lead them and care for them at the same time,” he said. “You can be hard on people, but you do it all with a servant-leadership mentality.” When he returned from Afghanistan, Tyler left the Army. He and his wife Ginna and their three daughters Caroline, Emma, and Grace live in Winston-Salem, where he works as a recall event manager at Inmar. As a member of the Army Reserve, he works in civil affairs one weekend a month, then two weeks each year. His reserve unit, based in McCleansville, gathers

social metrics of the area and relays that information to the military. The FCDS Experience Tyler had many positive take-aways from Forsyth Country Day – specifically, prioritization and organization. “I can remember going to Wake Forest and finding myself ahead of the curve. I was already independent enough to organize my schedule, prioritize what was important. I felt I was really well prepared coming out of Forsyth Country Day.” Pat Rimron was his mentor and helped him determine what kind of leader he wanted to be, but Tyler gives a lot of credit to Gina Funk, his senior year English teacher, and her term paper. “I always thought that was wonderful. You’re given a task and a lot of time to accomplish it – ‘here’s point A and here’s point Z’ but you need to figure out everything in the middle. That’s like every single task in the real world.” Tyler also has fond memories of his classmates. “We graduated 93 people and we were a really tight-knit class,” he said. “My best friend from high school, Ryan Hsu ’04, lives down the road from me. I’m in touch with a lot of people from Forsyth. It’s one of the reasons we’re excited to be back in Winston-Salem.” “Inmar’s been great – I really enjoy it,” Tyler said. “I’m a civilian most of the month now, but our job in the reserves is to make sure we’re ready to deploy. I always stay physically fit and mentally ready to go.” For anyone considering a military career, Tyler highly recommends it. “If anything, you really get those basic life skills. You really get this wonderful foundation of how to be a leader and a valuable member of society.” Maggie Morgan ’02 - United States Coast Guard Maggie Morgan, who is currently stationed as an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter pilot at Air Station San Francisco, became interested in becoming a pilot while at FCDS. She started taking flying lessons at Smith Reynolds Airport and attended a summer Coast Guard Academy program during her senior year. “I saw a Coast Guard helicopter at the Winston-Salem air show and that really inspired me,” she said. Maggie was accepted to the Coast Guard Academy, but she balked at the idea of having to spend two years working on a Coast Guard cutter after the academy before she could fly. Instead, Maggie headed to UNC-Chapel Hill and continued flight training in her spare time. After graduation (and after earning enough flight hours working as a flight instructor at Smith Reynolds Airport), Maggie became a commercial pilot for Express Jet Airlines. She piloted a 60-seat regional jet from 2006 to 2012, when she joined the United States Coast Guard. “I had always regretted not joining the Coast Guard and had become unsatisfied with airline life, so I applied for Officer Candidate School (OCS) and got picked up,” she said. “Joining the Coast Guard was one of the best decisions I’ve made,” Maggie said. “Everyone I talked to seemed to love it, and didn’t want to get out. I love the Coast Guard’s missions and I love the ocean and water,” she said. “I also like the small size of the Coast Guard. We’re smaller in size than the NYPD and it has a

family feel.” Maggie was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Coast Guard in 2012. “I went straight to Pensacola for Navy flight school and got my Wings of Gold as a Naval Aviator in January 2014.” Maggie’s primary job is flying helicopters, but she has other “collateral duty” jobs that change yearly. Currently, she is the ground safety officer in charge of safety training and purchasing protective equipment. “Every flight and case is different, so we’re always learning, studying, and training to improve our skills and become more proficient at flying,” she said. She has gone on a case to locate a whale entangled in a buoy, then phoned in GPS coordinates so it could be saved. She’s responded to oil spills and gone on patrols to makes sure fishermen are staying in appropriate fishing locations, but her primary function is search and rescue. “There is no typical day because some days I’m in the office, others I’m on training flights day or night, and then we do 24hour duties to respond to search and rescue cases any time of day,” she said. Flying in and around San Francisco in a helicopter can be especially challenging because of its weather, the mountains, and the busy airspace. “We fly under the Bay Bridge and Golden Gate Bridge when the fog is too low to get offshore for a case, and we have several cases a year to hoist people who have fallen or driven off cliffs,” she said. “It’s been a crazy adventure.” The FCDS Experience “I think FCDS set me up well for the Coast Guard,” Maggie said. “I learned about teamwork playing sports on the tennis and softball teams. I’ve used the writing skills I learned at FCDS a lot because as an officer, you write a lot. I was not expecting to use my writing skills after school. I think the best part of FCDS was that it taught me efficient and productive study habits that I still use to this day to keep up with the high level of knowledge needed for my job.” Maggie still cherishes the friends she made at Forsyth Country Day and fondly remembers her teachers. “My favorite and most inspiring teacher was Ms. Marshall, who coached our softball team,” Maggie said. “She was a great coach who really cared about her students and encouraged everyone no matter what skill level. She was personable and also very funny. She kept our motivation up even when we were losing.” She also remembers Peter Funk. “He made chemistry and science cool,” she said. “I enjoyed learning in his class and he kept us engaged.” Maggie and her husband, a fellow Coast Guard helicopter pilot, plan to stay in the Coast Guard for now, but an eventual return to North Carolina is a distinct possibility. “I’ve lived and traveled all over, but I miss my friends, family, and the area too much to stay away.” Stan Coerr ’85 –United States Marines Stan attended Forsyth Country Day for only two years – his junior and senior –but those years set the stage for the life that followed. “Mr. Childs, who taught me AP U.S. History, nominated me to attend Governors’ School the summer after my

junior year. That summer changed my life: it showed me what a group of high-performance people really looked like, gathered as a group.” I became intrigued with the idea that you should always be part of groups that you have to fight to get into: sports teams, college, military, graduate school. If it is a selective group, it will be filled with good people, as they too had to fight to get in.” Stan knew he wanted to fly and he thought first of going into the Navy. “I went to boarding school for a year (prior to FCDS) and loathed every second of it, so I knew I would hate the Naval Academy,” he said. “I figured out, somehow, that Navy ROTC would put me in the same place after college.” Stan attended Duke University on a Navy ROTC scholarship; there were 200 students in the program. “It was tremendous: great, great people, all of whom were strong enough to get into Duke and also volunteering to go into military service after graduation.” Since Navy ROTC trains officers for the Navy and Marines, undergraduates had to choose in which branch they would serve. After earning the maximum score possible on his physical fitness test his freshmen year (for which Stan thanks John Danforth), the Marines zeroed in. “The Marines were on me from that point on,” Stan said. “They recruited me, hard, and I never looked back.” During Stan’s 25 years in the Marine Corps and Marine Corps Reserve, he went overseas twice on normal deployments. “I was flying the Cobra out of Camp Pendleton and going out every year or so for a six-month deployment was the normal course of business for us. West Coast Marines went to the Pacific; East Coast guys went to the Mediterranean and Atlantic; both of us covered down the Middle East,” he said. Stan’s normal deployments took him to Japan, Okinawa, Tinian, Saipan, Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong, China, and Australia. “I flew down the same runway from which the Enola Gay took off and saw the bunker where the first atomic bomb was kept,” he recounted. “I herded kangaroos and emus with my helicopter. I flew over enormous statues of Buddha in Thailand, and went to the Bridge over the River Kwai, just like in the movie.” Eventually, he left the Marines but stayed in the Marine Reserves, and in January 2003, his reserve unit was activated for war. Stan was with a combat unit called 3rd ANGLICO, which served to provide liaison between the U.S. Marines and anyone they were working with. “Simply put, to keep us from shooting each other when things got busy.” Stan arrived in Kuwait on January 31, 2003 and joined the First Marine Division under Major General Mattis. “I took five teams of Marines to the British Army, to the 1 Royal Irish Battlegroup, and we got ready to invade,” Stan said. “We all pushed north up to the Kuwait-Iraq border and sat for about six weeks in the desert. We got the word in mid-March to get ready for the push over the border. Our living conditions deteriorated, which is always the sign that you are about to go into combat. As we moved north, we went from nice air-conditioned tents with TV and bunks, to tents with just bunks, to tents where we slept on the floor, to sleeping on the ground, to sleeping in holes we dug each night, to not sleeping at all.” Stan and his men were in the initial invasion in March 2003

that year. “We went over the border into Iraq at about 4 a.m. – oil wells in every direction on fire, the sky lit up like a horror movie, explosions and rockets everywhere.” He gathered his men together before they pushed over the border. “The problem was not charging them up – these are Marines – so the problem was holding them back,” Stan said. He gathered his men into a group. “I told them, ‘I am not going to put on my dress blues and stand on your parents’ front stoop and tell them you were killed because we did something stupid. If you get killed in the fight: that happens. This is a war. But we are not going to get killed by making a mistake’.” He told them they were going to be calm and controlled in everything they did, reminding them of the Marine division in front of them, the British division around them, the U.S. Army nearby, and the Marine Air Wing over them. “We are going to be fine,” he told them. “‘If you get confused or scared, you call me. We will work it out. Very little we see is going to need a response in under a minute. If you do see that, you know what to do.” To this day, Stan’s proudest accomplishment was bringing home every Marine he took into war. “Every one of my Marines and sailors went home in one piece,” he said. “That is about all a Marine officer can ask for.” Today, Stan is a GS-15 Director of Strategic Plans, Marine Corps Aviation, at the Pentagon. “My job is writing,” he said. “I write memos, briefs, papers, lectures, and the Marine Aviation Plan, which is our look ten years out as to how the Marine Corps will keep aircraft ready for war.” The best part of his job, he said, is the people. “I work in a room full of Marine field-grade officers, Major through Colonel, probably 50 of us in one room. It is a high-energy place, very high tempo, lots of pressure. We have to respond, sometimes within hours, to requests from the White House, the Commandant of the Marine Corps, the Congress...anyone who has an interest in or an issue with what the Marine Corps does.” All of his co-workers, like Stan himself, are combat veterans, and most have been to war numerous times. “It is work hard/ play hard environment,” he said. “High tempo – that is the key to who we are. These guys thrive on it as do I.” Stan’s time in the Marines and his civil service are not his only passions, however. He is also a writer who has authored myriad papers, two books, and a volume of war poetry entitled Rubicon, which won the MCHF Gannon Memorial Prize in 2016. “Poetry and long-form writing get at the human condition,” Stan said. “This is why we can read Beowulf or Don Quixote or Henry IV Part I, and it resonates with us just like something published last week. Writing touches on the themes that drive us: love, fear, anger, despair, joy, hatred.” Those ideas, Stan said, all revolve around love or its absence. “This is what combat is. It is love of your brothers, love of your organization, love of the tribe. And hatred for those who would pull it apart.”

The FCDS Experience “I loved FCDS. Loved it,” Stan said. “Kate Craver and Pattie Stoltz and Ann Williams and Nicholas Childs: these are the teachers who changed my life.” Mrs. Stoltz, however, was especially influential. “I am not alone in my admiration for her, and I always wanted to live up to what she knew I could do,” Stan said. “She treated us like adults, and she burned into us the recognition of knowing who we were and exploring what writing could mean to all of us.” Everyone, Stan said, grows out of their childhood in high school. “The FCDS Upper School was a special place for giving us the resources to fly when we were pushed out the nest. FCDS made me the man I am today.”

Brothers in Arms, Furies at Heart

went to service academies,” he said. “We always have a great time getting together talking about the military and reminiscing about our time at Forsyth. We are definitely closer because of our military service.” Though they all graduated Forsyth in 2012, they graduated or will graduate at different times from their academies. Matt was commissioned from West Point in 2016 as a second lieutenant in the Infantry branch of the U.S. Army. At press time, he was scheduled to attend Ranger School and to be promoted to first lieutenant in November. Kevin graduated from the Naval Academy in May 2017, and Jack will graduate from the Air Force Academy in May 2018.

Kevin Reinemund, Jack Young, and Matt Reyes all graduated from FCDS in 2012. At first, they bonded over playing basketball with former Coach Jack McHale, but their bond grew stronger as they all decided to attend different service academies – Kevin the U.S. Naval Academy, Jack the U.S. Air Force Academy, and Matt, the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. “We were like brothers by the end of our senior year, but the bond that Kevin, Jack, and I have developed ever since we began our time at our respective academies is really special to us and something I don’t think most people would understand,” Matt said. “Life at a service academy is very rigorous, and to have two other people going through it right alongside of you creates a special bond.” “Jack and Matt are two of my closest friends to this day,” Kevin said. “Our service has only solidified our friendship. They understand what I’m doing and why I’m doing it, and not many people can understand that.” Jack agreed. “Kevin, Matt and I are very close because we all

Not surprisingly, there’s a healthy rivalry among the friends – especially when it comes to football. “We all respect one another’s branches tremendously, but we do trash talk when Air Force plays Navy or Army in football,” Jack admitted. “Though Air Force seems to always win the Commander-in-Chief’s trophy, so it’s a bit one-sided.” “West Point, The Naval Academy, and the Air Force Academy are all huge rivals in sports – especially football,” Matt said. “Every year for five years at the annual Army-Navy game, Kevin and I would meet up at half-time to catch up, take pictures, and talk trash. It’s all in good fun, though. I love those guys and there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for either one of them; they’re my brothers.” If anything, the friendly rivalry only brings them closer. “We will always have each other’s backs,” Kevin said. “A saying in the military is: ‘I would die for people that I’ve never even met; imagine what I would do for those I love.’ That saying is one way that I would describe our bond. I am so proud of Jack and Matt and can’t wait to see where our service takes us, and for the record, Navy is still the best.”

MAKING HISTORY The Legacy of Carolyn Spencer

Carolyn Spencer, 81, who taught history at Forsyth Country Day for 32 years, passed away on July 9, 2017, leaving a legacy of teaching excellence, mentorship, humor, and loving kindness for all who had the pleasure to know her. A native of Winston-Salem, Mrs. Spencer graduated from R.J. Reynolds High School and earned her bachelor’s degree from Duke University. After beginning her career at Reynolds, she joined the FCDS faculty in 1975 – the same year that Pattie Stoltz did. “I think she had a way of making the kids really love history,” Mrs. Stoltz said. “She could take historical facts and help kids understand how human beings live and react to each other over time. She showed them how what happened in the past affects us now and how what we do now affects the future.” Middle School history teacher Joe Scott agreed. “She had a vast knowledge of her subject matter, a great mind, and the ability to teach adults or children.” Mr. Scott moved from the Middle School to the Upper School in 2003 after the then-AP U.S. History teacher retired. “Carolyn’s classroom was right across the hall,” he said. “She went out of her way to help me make that adjustment to the Upper School. She always answered my questions, and she is, without question, one of the most significant people in my development as a teacher.” Upper School history teacher Tom Howell had a similar experience. As chair of the history department, Mrs. Spencer interviewed him for his first permanent teaching job. “She was my first mentor,” he said. “We both taught European History. Her mastery of the content was incredible. There wasn’t anything she didn’t know, and she’s really the one who helped me get my start.” Mrs. Spencer inspired a love of history and learning in her students, too. “She was a great teacher,” recalled Cate Reece Lynch ’03. “She taught the small details and fine points of his-

torical events well, but she did an even better job of marrying it all to the big picture.” Cate remembers being in Mrs. Spencer’s Modern European History course as a senior the day former President George W. Bush declared war on Iraq. “She passed out a blank map of the Middle East, and we spent an entire week discussing the history of the Middle East. Just when we felt like these were separate lessons, she tied it all together by explaining how that region affected modern European history and the United States.” Susan Gunter Moffitt ’82 said that Mrs. Spencer – a neighbor and close family friend in addition to being her teacher – was like a second mother to her. “I knew I had better be prepared for class and score well on her tests or I would hear about it from her! She was passionate about teaching and immersing us in the material so that we could see how the historic events of yesterday were relevant today,” Susan said. Susan remained close to Mrs. Spencer and her daughters, attending weddings, graduations, and even vacationing together. “She definitely left her handprint on my heart. She is deeply missed and I am for sure a much better person for having known her.” In addition to teaching history, Mrs. Spencer was the longtime senior class advisor and was instrumental in planning and leading student trips. “She loved traveling; she took the kids to Europe,” Mrs. Stoltz said. “People wanted to go because she led the trips, and parents trusted her. Students could see these places and get her insights about what happened there, what role those places played in history. She made it real for them.” No matter whom you talk to – student, faculty member, or friend – Carolyn Spencer’s wonderful sense of humor is mentioned. “She didn’t take herself too seriously,” Mr. Scott said. “She was very intellectual; she could be stern in class, but she was so funny – even irreverent at times – and that endeared her to everyone.”

Mr. Howell concurred. “She had such a great wit about her,” he said. “She was always funny and relevant.” Mrs. Stoltz recalls Mrs. Spencer holding court back when there was a faculty lounge. “Carolyn was always the life of the party,” Mrs. Stoltz recalled. “She always had a joke or a story to tell – often at her own expense. She was totally fun to be with.” This joy carried over into all areas of her life – especially when it came to spending time with her children and grandchildren. “Her Christmas cards would always be her surrounded by her army of grandchildren,” Mr. Scott said. “She loved them. They went to the beach together every summer. She was so proud of her children and grandchildren, and she was an awesome mother and grandmother.” “She loved life and lived it to enjoy with family, friends, and students,” Mrs. Stoltz said. “She enjoyed people.” When Mrs. Spencer retired in 2007, Forsyth Country Day School named one of the four student awards presented at graduation in her honor – the Carolyn P. Spencer Faculty Award. Not surprisingly, it recognizes a graduating senior “whose actions reflect love of learning, thirst for knowledge, and positive spirit as demonstrated in the distinguished work of Carolyn P. Spencer.” After retirement, Mrs. Spencer remained active and connected with the FCDS community. “Even after she retired, I would call on her for help and she still gave it,” Mr. Scott said. Mrs. Stoltz said that Carolyn rarely missed the retired faculty lunch, which included former FCDS teachers like Justine Linville, Carolyn Creech, and Kate Craver, and she always attended the end-of-school faculty luncheon. After she was diagnosed with breast cancer, Mrs. Spencer fought it with courage and an incredible attitude. “Everyone has ups and downs, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone with a better attitude or a stronger faith than Carolyn,” Mrs. Stoltz said. “I’m sure there were difficult times when she felt terrible, but she dealt with it and did the best she could. No matter

what happened in her life, she dealt with it gracefully.” Mrs. Spencer’s kindness and positive attitude endeared her to many. “She always had a heart for anyone she could help,” Mr. Scott said. “She was just a genuinely good person.” Mrs. Stoltz concurred. “Carolyn was highly respected because of her character and who she was as a person. She was a great role model for what you should be as a person and as a teacher.”

a message from

Gardner Barrier Dear FCDS Community, The 2016-2017 school year was an incredible one – my first as the head of the wonderful institution that gave so much to me when I was a student here. As head, I finally had the chance to give back in a meaningful way. To have so many of you support Forsyth Country Day by enrolling your children here, through volunteer work, and yes, financially, means a great deal to every member of our community. The 2016-2017 school year marked the highest Forsyth Fund participation in the history of the school, with 100 percent of faculty, staff, and Board of Trustees investing in Forsyth and a truly impressive 96 percent of parents giving to the Forsyth Fund. We also saw significant jumps in participation among our alumni and in overall giving. Way to go. I’m grateful to everyone who gave to support the important work we do here every day. First, I’d like to thank of Board of Trustees for their leadership and service to our school. I’m especially grateful to Board Chairman Stewart Beason for his

support and leadership throughout my first year here. I’d like to send a special shout-out to Shea Breitling, our Forsyth Fund chair, and her dedicated group of volunteers, who gave so much of their time and energy to making this year such a success.

a message from

Stewart Beason Dear Furies: On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to thank you for your support of Forsyth Country Day School. It’s my honor to work alongside each member of our volunteer Board and to work so closely with our Head of School and my fellow FCDS alumnus, Gardner Barrier ’97. This 2016-2017 Annual Giving Report is a celebration of the many people who made Forsyth Country Day School a giving priority.

•Ninety-six percent of current FCDS parents supported the Forsyth Fund, •100 percent of faculty and Board member made contributions. •We established the Strategic Campus Improvements Fund (SCIF) to make needed improvements to our campus.Thus far, we have built out the Engineering Building and – at press time – had started work on the Arts on Main project, which is scheduled to be completed before Winter Break.

Your generosity touches every area of the school and each student here on a daily basis. Thanks to everyone who dedicated their time, effort, and resources to support Forsyth Country Day School and the children it serves. We thank you for helping to make FCDS such an incredible school and to help us prepare our students for what’s ahead. Sincerely,

Stewart Beason ’81 Chairman, Board of Trustees
