In Memoriam

DEAR FRIENDS OF THE STORM KING SCHOOL,

I am pleased to share our Honor Roll of Donors for the 2021-22 fiscal year. I want to express my sincere appreciation to everyone who made a gift.

For all of us, the last several years have presented a series of intense challenges. The pandemic, the unsettled international climate, and the economic slowdown have all tested us. The Storm King School has weathered these trials well and continues to advance its mission. I attended the most recent Reunion - the first in-person event Storm King had held in three years. It was wonderful to be back on campus and be among old friends and make new ones. I look forward to being on campus more often and watching our school transform, as it has done since my graduation.

Today, The Storm King School ranks among the best boarding schools in North America. According to rankings and review site Niche.com, Storm King is positioned as the 6th most prestigious boarding school in the state of New York and in the top 75th percentile of all boarding schools in North America. Boston-based Findingschools.com lists Storm King’s arts program as the most selective of all boarding schools in North America, consequently ranking Storm King at the top of their ‘best-of-arts-programs’ category.

Furthermore, the School’s senior class is regularly accepted into colleges and universities of their top choice. Recently, our graduates matriculated into some of the world’s most prestigious universities, including The University of Chicago, Cornell, Georgetown, Tufts, Wellesley, NYU Stern, Georgia Tech, and Case Western Reserve University, among others. This would not be possible without your support.

Each year we ask all of our alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and friends to help us by donating to The Storm King Fund. This year we will focus your annual fund contributions toward the student aid budget. If you have helped us in the past, thank you for your gift and we ask that you consider a more significant gift this year. If you have not donated before, we ask that you consider a first-time gift. Large or small, every gift counts. Please invest in SKS. As you can see, the return on your investment is significant and growing.

Thank you again for any way that you have or will contribute to The Storm King School and its bright future. BOB GINSBURG ’72

Chris Cavallo ’70 wrote “At the suggestion of a former Mountaineer, I have decided to share that although my life has had personal and professional successes, it also has involved some curveballs, especially with the loss of my wife, Robin, and my daughter, Stefanie, to opioids. This easily could have been me until 1984, when I made a commitment to recovery. Since then, I have become an activist in my community trying to help prevent future deaths from the raging opioid pandemic that has taken over 100,000 lives just in the last year– more than gun violence and automobile accidents combined. The spike in numbers is largely driven by the new drug fentanyl that has been added to opioids and has also found its way into marijuana that is being sold in the streets across the globe. I started the Robin Foundation several years after the loss of my wife. I am presently raising funds to distribute Opioid Emergency Kits with Narcan to local businesses and community organizations. Narcan is an opioid antagonist that rapidly reverses an opioid overdose. If you have someone in your life that has a problem with alcohol or drug addiction, I am here to help them no matter what state or country they are in. We have assisted many people over the years by placing them in detox/ treatment centers, providing housing, directing men/women to local support groups in every state, and have assigned multiple scholarships where we have seen lives not just saved, but significantly changed.” (chris@csi-securesolutions.com) Mark Gero ’70, who lives in Zagreb, Croatia, sent an email to a group of 26 alumni friends and shared it with SKS: “Boys, you know it pains me to send pictures of myself. But I had to do it (BTW, in this photo I have horrible allergies and haven’t seen the whites of my eyes in two weeks). Anyway, a gift package arrived at my door with an SKS hat and two shirts– my first memorabilia in a half a century or so. This was thanks solely to the kindness and generosity of my sophomore year roommate Mr. Chris Cavallo.”

Wendy McCaw ’75 and Lisa Sommers ’76 have been friends

for 50 years since meeting at The Storm King School. Wendy wrote “We enjoy traveling and since Covid restrictions have lifted considerably, we decided to rebook a trip to Norway. This trip took us to several stops, including the capital, Oslo; Lillehammer– site of the 1994 Olympics; Sogndal for a ride on the Songefjord; and lastly pictured here in Bergen. We are having a great time.”

Mike Sloan ’77 wrote from Spain “Caroline and I visit Pals,

Spain as often as possible because the weather, food, people, and landscape are wonderful. It doesn’t hurt to have a family villa here as well. I’m looking forward to visiting Storm King for the alumni reunion in June.”

Classmates Penny Smith Jehlen ’80 and Philie Chan ’80 (for-

merly Sanh Tran) reconnected last winter by phone. In late May, they met in Tampa, Florida after 42 years. Philie wrote “We spent the day visiting the Dali Museum, eating Vietnamese food for lunch, and Italian food for dinner. We talked and laughed like old friends and discovered that we can still get lost while using a GPS. Penny is doing well and lives in Florida. I travel between California and Florida.”

Vincent Alamo ’85 recently visited the Mountain from his

home state of Florida. “We drove up the Palisades to stop at The Storm King School. Breathtaking scenery and hearts which are full! On campus, we met the Head of School Jonathan Lamb and had a really nice chat. We walked the entire campus and all of the surrounding streets and houses. It was emotional for me being reminded of how much Storm King gave me confidence and strength when I was so uncertain of my future. It’s so crazy how I needed to be there to truly realize that all of my successes were enabled by this wonderful mountain school. Thank you again and I look forward to my next visit and my next opportunity to join in on an event!”

Laurie Polsky Smith ’92 is a Science teacher in the School District of Osceola County, Florida. Smith was a recipient of the 2018 Yale Educator Award recognizing educators from around the world who inspire and support their students to perform at high levels and to achieve excellence. Out of 371 nominees who represent 42 U.S. states and 12 countries, Laurie was among 59 teachers and 28 counselors selected for the award. She was nominated for the award by Jose Garcia, her school’s 2018 valedictorian, and then selected as a winner by a committee at the university.

In addition to participating in the recent SKS Alumni Conversation Series “Mid-1980s-1990s Zoom” in February 2022, she wrote “Running the NYC Half Marathon has always been a dream of mine since I starting running in 2011. I run for physical exercise with no intention of winning any races. I was never going to qualify for the NYC race based on time, but fortunately, the race has a lottery for those of us who just wish to run the race for the experience. I had entered the lottery twice before but was not selected. This past November, I entered and was selected! I chose a finish time slower than my normal pace as I planned to take as many photos as possible. The weather was perfect and the public support along the course was very motivational. I did it! My next plan is to run the Long Beach Half in October 2022 as my own version of running ‘coast to coast.’”

Richie Boyer ’04 visited with past faculty/staff/coaches Micah Brownstein (1999-2007) and Joseph Graziosi (2008-2021) and wrote “I took a road trip to Carroll County, Maryland. Even if we met in New York, all roads lead to Maryland! We all are doing well, so if you come to Maryland or live in Maryland, don’t be afraid to stop by and visit us and say ‘Hi.’ Let’s play some LAX!”

Benissa Uwamwiza ’14, a student from Rwanda, attended Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota earning a B.S. in public accounting in 2018 after her time at SKS. While at college, she worked with faculty on an entrepreneurship task force to develop a course for entrepreneurs and was the winner of her college’s Gustie Tank competition by pitching a possible business. Benissa worked as a financial analyst after college, and then obtained her masters’ degree in big data analysis and IT. She recently began a new position as a data scientist for Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions in Raleigh, North Carolina, mainly in the area of retail technology. She said “I truly hope to come visit SKS!”

Joe Underwood ’16 wrote “I finally graduated from the Uni-

versity of Scranton in 2022. When Covid hit in 2020, I stopped pursuing my degree and started working. Little did I know this would turn into working full time and finishing my bachelors in communications (journalism and electronic media) part-time. I started working as a property manager in Scranton, Pennsylvania and I am now a licensed real estate agent in that state. I started my first home renovation and flip in Scranton in July 2020 and loved every aspect of it. It has given me the extra push to go back to school and do something in multiple trades so that I know all aspects of a home for the next flip and the one after that.”

Mark Katz Jr. ’17 is a graduate of Quinnipiac University where he majored in public relations/image management and minored in history. Mark wrote that during his years at SKS and Quinnipiac he maintained a passion for service. After graduating from Quinnipiac, Mark will continue serving others as a Development Associate at the Elayne and James Schoke Jewish Family Services of Fairfield County, Connecticut. He researches donors, helps coordinate development events and programs, and works to maintain and improve donor relations. Mark is pictured here with his proud father, Mark Sr. After a 30-year career as an executive in the technology field, Mark Sr. is transitioning back into academics to use his master’s degree in English literature from The University of Chicago. Last spring he taught 10th and 12th grade English at SKS as a substitute for an English teacher on maternity leave. Mark Sr. had a fantastic experience and says that he wants to thank the staff and faculty for making the transition back into teaching seamless. Most importantly, he wants to thank the great students at SKS!

Cole Neville ’18 graduated from the University at Albany

with full honors for a dual major in biology and chemistry. He will be attending graduate school to pursue his interest in environmental science and research. Cole continues to play lacrosse and prefers spending his time outdoors. His sister, Courtney Neville ’16 has an undergraduate degree from University at Albany in biology and is currently completing her nursing degree. She has been recognized for her outstanding academic achievements, was named a Rising Senior RN, and awarded an internship at St. Anthony’s Hospital Surgical

Unit. Courtney spends her free time going on outdoor adventures with her dog, Alex. Carly Neville ’22 has committed to play Division II Lacrosse for The College of St. Rose in Albany, New York. She was recognized at SKS for her academic and athletic achievements. Carly is interested in pursuing a degree in law. Like all the Nevilles before her, she loves spending time outdoors.

Heying “Helen” Shen ’20 wrote “I am currently a second-year combined degree student majoring in international relations and fine art at Tufts. My program is five years long, but I’m trying to graduate within four years. Even though getting two degrees (BA & BFA) is more challenging than I thought, I have enjoyed every course I have taken at Tufts. The Storm King School’s AP Art class taught by Mr. Carruthers was my favorite course and it builds a strong art foundation for going into college. “Mr. C” taught me how to do an art critique with full confidence and taught me not to be afraid to make mistakes while creating an art piece. To this day, Mr. C still leaves comments on my art account and his words always brighten my day. Learning art at SKS inspired me to grow into an artist. My other major, international relations, is one of the most popular majors at Tufts. I have a concentration in regional studies in East Asia and worked at the American Chamber of Commerce in China over the summer. I am so proud to be a former Cougar and now a Jumbo!”

Trustee Emerita Bettina Murray wrote to OTM about her granddaughter, Rory Tobin ’20. Rory went to Sun Valley, Idaho for the summer for a job at the Lee Pesky Learning Center that specializes in working with students with dyslexia. Rory also worked as a tennis coach at the Sun Valley Club. Bettina reported “Rory is studying at SUNY Geneseo. It is a great choice of college for her. She plays #1 doubles and #3 singles on their tennis team. She is an excellent student, doing very well in her studies focused on psychology and behavioral sciences. She has applied and been chosen to go to SUNY’s program in Athens, Greece for the fall 2022 semester. Grandmother is very proud! Storm King should be pleased.”

Romee Choi ’21 wrote to SKS dance teacher Jeanette Perk

Jacobson: “It’s been such a while since I talked to you. How is everything in Storm King? I miss that place so much. I’ve been dancing more seriously ever since I came to college (Northeastern University), and dance always reminds me of you because you’re the first dance teacher I ever had! I still remember how you told us on the last day of our class that we should keep dancing when we go to college because it will be such a great experience. Dance is really making my college life so much more enjoyable. It’s so crazy and exciting how I’m now performing in front of such huge crowds. I also had my first workshop a week ago, and it was so much fun to teach other people my own choreography and watch them dance it with their own style! I wanted to share my dance life and show you how much I improved both in skills and confidence. And, to SKS students: I want everybody to really cherish every moment at SKS, because it takes up a huge part of your heart and will be a great foundation for your college life and beyond.”
