Dear Members of the Millbrook Family, The 2019-2020 school year was a year unlike any other. Despite the challenges faced by all during this pandemic, for many it proved to be an opportunity to come home and support one another through strengthened bonds of family and community and to take time to examine our lives, to slow down, and, as a result, to truly come to grips with and give thanks for the enormity of the blessings each of us has received. Perhaps that is why the 2019-2020 school year was, despite substantial

Kevin Foley ’20 NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY I chose to go to Northwestern primarily because of its academic reputation but also because their students are known for balancing the stress of classes with active social lives. I want to be in a community where students take their work seriously but also know how to have fun. I think I'm most looking forward to being somewhere new. I loved Millbrook, but now I'm excited to be in a large community surrounded by new people with unique experiences from which I can learn. I feel well prepared to take care of myself when I’m on my own at college. Not only did I develop solid study habits, but I also know not to let my schoolwork get in the way of looking after my emotional and physical well-being.

Thi Phuong Thao “Pam” Nguyen ’20 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY I chose Georgetown mainly for its International Relations program at the School of Foreign Service. It is a very unique program that emphasizes language learning, which is a huge part of my life and self-identity. I also chose Georgetown for its location in DC, where I can meet and learn from people with diverse backgrounds and experiences—an important aspect of the social sciences. I think it is a critical time to be studying international politics and affairs, and I'm looking forward to seeing how social science courses adapt and change due to the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the lessons that will come from this pandemic is recognizing the need for greater multilateral cooperation, as opposed to nationalism and protectionism. Millbrook has taught me to be more independent and confident in my abilities and to dig deeper, as I did especially in my VIth form history electives. When I have told my professors and peers at Georgetown that I took Constitutional Law and Immigration & Migration in high school, they marvel at the level of specificity and relevance our history curriculum has compared to regular AP Government or AP US History courses. In these Millbrook classes, I developed a greater sense of inquiry and greater interest in international affairs.

Mingxuan “Kevin” Wang ’20 COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY One important reason I wanted to go to Columbia is the reputation of the school’s physics department. As someone who has always been drawn to the physical sciences, I plan to major in physics in college, and Columbia has some of the best and most accessible physics professors in the world. Also, the multicultural environment at Columbia is an important factor. I am very interested in learning languages, and I love learning about other cultures. With an international student population topping 25%, Columbia is providing me with connections to students from around the globe. I look forward to starting off with the freshman science seminar, where every week postgraduates and professors share their state-of-the-art research, and we gather in groups to discuss the implications. I am very excited to learn about the newest technological advances and explore various scientific fields. I am well prepared for all of this, as Millbrook’s course structures and academic rigor created a similarly challenging environment. At the same time, the experience of living on campus and forming close connections have strengthened my sense of community. I will carry all of this into college life.

Jackie Crowley ’20 SWARTHMORE COLLEGE There are so many reasons that Swarthmore is right for me! The first is the extensive curriculum and the ability to explore many fields of interest, like biology, engineering, and psychology, while still getting a strong liberal arts education. Furthermore, Swarthmore is offering me the opportunity to conduct research, both in professors’ labs and off campus via summer internships. I enjoyed my Independent Science Research class so much in my VIth form year at Millbrook, being able to continue serious research is really important. I also appreciate Swarthmore’s tight-knit community that provides me the opportunity to form meaningful relationships with my classmates, teammates, and professors, and I will engage with people from a vast number of states and countries. Millbrook taught me how to be independent in my studies and balance school, social life, and athletics. I will put those skills to use as I begin to play field hockey at the collegiate level!

William “Jack” Bloom ’20 THE GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY Coming from Millbrook's small community and rural setting, I was looking for a college where I could branch out and put the skills I learned living in a community to good use on a larger scale. My dorm at George Washington is three blocks west of the White House, three blocks north of the National Mall, and three blocks east of the Kennedy Center! Being in the center of such an active city was a draw, and the many opportunities for internships and work experience sealed the deal. GW also has a very active and socially conscious student body, of which I want to be a part. I am grateful for the breadth of opportunities I had at Millbrook, and I am very excited to specialize a bit more and really get into what I care about both academically and in extracurriculars with student organizations. It was almost impossible not to participate actively in the community at Millbrook. Honoring commitments, advocating for myself, and forming meaningful relationships with my teachers and my peers are all skills I think will serve me well in college. I couldn't imagine going to a school as urban and as big as GW without the solid foundation I built at Millbrook.

Sylvie Escobar ’20 BOSTON COLLEGE Initially, what attracted me to Boston College was the nationally ranked psychology program and the school’s proximity to Boston. I am most looking forward to taking psychology and neuroscience classes since those fields interest me greatly. Having worked in this field for my Independent Science Research project, I knew this was the direction I wanted to go as I made my college decision. Millbrook has also prepared me well in terms of time management skills. Even as a day student, I was busy from 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. on most school days. Learning how to manage a very loaded schedule and make the most of my time really allowed me to succeed in high school. I know I will make the most out of my next four years at BC, including exploring Boston and attending many different sporting events.

Here, I will further my development as a student and adult. At Millbrook I learned you get out what you put into your experience, which is why I want to be heavily involved in many things at Colgate. I feel no anxiety or uncertainty about college life. Millbrook's balance of independence and builtin structure for students has taught me skills and given me experiences that allow me to have an excellent baseline for college. Furthermore, the way Millbrook teachers pushed me to find deeper meaning in my work will definitely help me be successful in college.

Millbrook definitely prepared me well for college, particularly in terms of analytical writing that followed college-level criteria in-line with requirements here at Berkeley. Also, living on campus and being a dorm leader really taught me how to better connect with friends and communicate with my dorm mates. I look forward to all of the exciting experiences that await me at Berkeley; plus, California has such great weather and food!

“We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors;
we borrow it from our children.” -Ancient Native Proverb
When the ball dropped on New Year's Eve to commemorate the beginning of 2020, a group of people, spanning four generations and inextricably connected through the shared experience of Millbrook, linked elbows, held hands, and sang Auld Lang Syne amongst the cacophony of insects, frogs, and birds in one of the most biologically diverse ecosystems on earth. We were Millbrook in the Amazon. As we sang our way into a New Year, there was a palpable celebration of science and curiosity in the air. We were proud of our school and the mission that continues to live within each one of us. It was as if we were holding hands with the thousand-year-old trees, new seedlings fighting for their spot in the sun, species well known, and life-forms yet to be discovered. The significance of Millbrook and the significance of the Amazon, at that moment, seemed to be on inseparable grounds. As we explored the sandy soils of Camp 41, a 40-

that is displayed prominently in the Jono and Jane Meigs’ Education building at the Trevor Zoo. “We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.” I could not help but think of Frank Trevor, the subject of so much Millbrook folklore and legendry. When Frank Trevor arrived at Millbrook with a station wagon full of animals, did he know what his passion might someday create? Did he understand kinetic pedagogy – how much the boys of Millbrook School yearned to get out of the classroom and get their hands dirty with real responsibility? Was his vision purposeful or just a hunch? Was it better by design or just a coincidental accident created through a passion for preservation, conservation, and the rescuing of exotic animals that were traded through a black market? George Orwell wrote, "A lunatic is a minority of one." If we accept that statement, there is no doubt that Frank Trevor was wild in head and heart; but, as we in the Millbrook community know, he planted the seed for an emergent program. This program has more relevance today than ever before as we face problems like habitat destruction, species

extinction, and climate change. As an educator who aspires to be intentional in everything that I do, I must wonder if Frank Trevor had any clue that his wacky idea would attract the likes of a young Thomas Lovejoy, who searched for a boarding school as an escape from the confines of New York City. Did Frank Trevor know that he would educate and, more importantly, fuel the passion and drive of the eventual "Godfather of Biodiversity," a man who has helped lobby and successfully preserve over half of the Amazon rainforest with Brazilian and Peruvian governments? Did he know his vision for animals, cared for by boys, would help save the world?

MillbrookEngage 2020 Introduction by MillbrookEngage Program Director Linda Casertano
When Millbrook students departed for spring break in early March, 16 of them were in the process of pursuing MillbrookEngage summer internships, and some had scheduled interviews with contacts at not-for-profit organizations. With the onset of the coronavirus in mid-March, it soon became apparent that students would not be returning to campus for the foreseeable future. As the school year was disrupted and classes shifted online, MillbrookEngage seemed threatened by a new normal of sheltering in place and distance learning.

The public closure of the Trevor Zoo due to COVID-19 meant that animals were denied visits from the public, a significant source of interest and engagement in their daily lives. As Amber designed various enrichments for the animals, she observed and recorded the effectiveness of her activities.
“In creating new enrichment items, I was able to benefit both the animals and the zoo staff,” said Amber. “The animals were investigating enrichment they had not seen before, and I was also able to provide the zoo with new ideas that they could use in the future. I freed up time for the zoo staff, allowing them to complete other tasks, and collected data that they can use for behavioral assessments and new enrichmentspecific activities for each species.” Trevor Zoo Director of Programs Jessica Bennett was happy to have such a committed animal-lover on board. "Amber learned the 'why’ behind some of the processes at the zoo and gained experience on how to execute many tasks completed daily by the zoo staff,” said Ms. Bennett. “Amber also took careful notes on the animals she was observing and came up with some original enrichment devices.”

JESS PIARD Hudson River Housing Inc., Poughkeepsie, NY Jess employed her design and communication skills in service of Hudson River Housing, a Poughkeepsie-based non-profit dedicated to serving under-housed populations, preserving affordable housing, and strengthening communities by supporting homeownership. Jess worked remotely to grow awareness of the Hudson River Housing mission, using social media and other 21st century messaging tools. Her mentors held her to a high standard in both graphic design and writing, and Jess rose to the challenge, developing time management and collaboration skills along with valuable insights on effective messaging.
“There is no better feeling than helping to make a difference, even in the smallest way,” said Jess. “I plan to take both the experience and all the skills I acquired at HRH and apply them when I major in business and advertising in college.” “Having Jessica as our communications and fundraising intern for the summer was truly a gift,” said Hudson River Housing mentor Charis Alexander. “She asked thoughtful questions, worked very efficiently, and was able to complete projects relatively autonomously, which was crucial for our busy remote schedules.”

FENWAY POWERS Nobody Leaves Mid-Hudson, Poughkeepsie, NY Fenway Powers delved deeply into social justice issues during his MillbrookEngage internship at Nobody Leaves Mid-Hudson (NLMH), a grassroots organization that seeks to empower underserved citizens via voting. Fenway learned that non-profits must continually fundraise to exist, and much of his work centered on canvassing for donations. He engaged in phone banking, and as he gained knowledge on the issues, his confidence in soliciting donations also increased. Phone banking also demonstrably increases voter participation, and through the efforts of Fenway and other interns, NLMH hopes for results on Election Day.
“There were many things I learned this summer,” said Fenway, “and it has constantly been challenging the way I think about the world, the way I think about race, and the way I think about culture.” “Throughout the summer he has displayed wonderful levels of maturity and a good work ethic,” said mentor Molly Dolman. “Fenway did great working with his intern peers to put on a workshop for interested volunteers and students about civic engagement and electoral politics in the Hudson Valley.”

LILLA POWERS Geer Village Senior Community, Canaan, CT Lilla Powers interned at Geer Village Senior Community in Canaan, CT. She connected strongly with residents and staff at the assisted living community and found that the relationships she built over her time there as a MillbrookEngage intern were invaluable. During the isolating era of COVID-19, senior citizens are especially in need of support and engagement. Lilla not only worked to protect the physical health of Geer Village residents by helping to screen visitors for COVID-19, but she also supported their emotional well-being by planning events and activities and facilitating visits when possible. Geer Village adhered to strict health and safety protocols, and Lilla worked as a concierge and an assistant in the recreation department to promote a calm and consistent atmosphere on the campus.
“Geer Village and Millbrook share many of the same values, including respect, integrity, and compassion,” said Lilla, “making an internship at Geer the perfect way to exercise Non Sibi Sed Cunctis.” “Lilla Powers stepped onto our senior living campus and made a difference in the lives of our staff and residents from day one,” said Geer Village mentor Brooke Fehn. “In particular, she received many compliments from our residents, and they really enjoyed interacting with her.”

NOOR RAHMAN Citizen Action NY, Albany, NY Noor’s MillbrookEngage experience with Citizen Action of New York gave her an inside look at policy, politics, and housing inequities that are beginning to be addressed. Noor worked on the frontline of Citizen Action’s campaign for housing justice, which focused on legislation to protect and support tenants, homeowners, and the homeless suffering as a result of COVID-19. Her on-the-ground work included making contact with bureaucrats and politicians regarding housing issues and soliciting their support for crucial legislation. Noor witnessed firsthand the difficulties with communication and messaging and created media toolkits to help inform, educate, and persuade on issues of housing inadequacy and injustice. Noor hopes to call on her experience at Citizen Action to help make Millbrook a more inclusive environment.
“The most valuable work I did was with the Poor People’s Campaign,” said Noor, “which is a continuation of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s work around uniting the poor to end poverty. She continued, "The idealism of the campaign struck me, and I hope to continue my work with them as much as possible.” "Noor has been such a huge asset to our organization and the housing movement that I don't think I could describe it adequately," said Noor's mentor, Rebecca Garrard. "She is, by far, not only the best intern that we have ever had but one of the biggest value-adds our organization has at this moment."

SOPHIE STARK Philipstown Behavioral Health Hub, Cold Spring, NY Sophie Stark interned with the Philipstown Behavioral Health Hub to focus on her interest in mental health issues and healthcare access for those in need. Sophie worked remotely and on-site and dedicated her time to creating a comprehensive database of local mental health providers and services. In assembling the database, Sophie also gained insight into the variety of services available and unmet mental health needs in general. She also delved into the workings of non-profit organizations, including community outreach, fundraising, and operations. Sophie is a peer counselor at Millbrook and found some helpful crossover to her work on campus.
"There is so much I have gained from working with the Hub that I plan to bring back to Millbrook and any future job," said Sophie. "I am also very interested in going into the world of medicine, so I am excited to be learning how to communicate with doctors and how to navigate the medical world." “Sophie is a self-starter and eager to get things done,” said mentor Danielle Pack McCarthy. “Sophie did not need hand-holding, but rather she was able to execute tasks with efficiency and ask questions when necessary.”

PIPER STRAUTMAN Global Justice Center, New York, NY Piper undertook a remote MillbrookEngage internship in the communications department of the Global Justice Center (GJC), a New York City-based non-profit formed to promote justice, peace, and security via a global rule of law based on gender equality and human rights. Now, more than ever, electronic messaging is even more crucial to spreading the word about the work of GJC, and Piper set to work overhauling the organization's website, growing social media exposure, and prioritizing several GJC initiatives. She learned more specifics about the organization while helping to expose issues of genocide, reproductive rights, and global injustices.
“The whole point of GJC is to advocate for people who cannot advocate for themselves,” said Piper. “I learned that this type of work is the most rewarding because you are affecting peoples’ lives positively and giving them hope and strength to start advocating for themselves.” “Piper has been professional, attentive, and eager for work,” said GJC mentor Thomas Dresslar. “The projects that she worked on have been long neglected by the organization, and I'm sure her work will pay dividends.”

FACILITIES The center’s design was informed by discussions on program and how the space will be used for both individual counseling and group meetings. A committee weighed in on many details: from the lighting, to the color of the walls, to the comfort of the furniture and the physical space, to its accessibility. This will truly be a school space, where students can meet one-on-one with Director of Counseling Sarah Stanton ’89, LCSW or Counselor Billy Thom, MSW, while peer counselors meet during community service periods and Human Development groups meet there for classes. Sarah Stanton ’89 had been counseling Millbrook students off-site for many years and joined as Millbrook’s full-time counseling director in 2018. She shares why she became a counselor and what her program goals are today:
“Nancy Drago was the counselor here for many years and when I was a student—she was wonderful. She was the reason I became a licensed clinical social worker. I loved her demeanor and how she worked with kids—she was a real role model. So being here now, in this capacity, means so much to me.
Counseling Center We have long recognized that mental health is as important to our students’ well-being as their physical health and pivotal to adolescent development. As we outgrew our former counseling space—located above the student post office—plans began to take shape for a counseling center (with business office to be located on the ground floor) adjacent to the north end of the Barn, and we broke ground late this summer.
34
Millbrook School
Developmentally, kids today share many of the issues and concerns that adolescents did many years ago, but there are also additional complexities and pressures in this world that they have to navigate every day. Counseling has also become more normalized - about one-third of our current students use our services here and still others continue to use their current providers via telephone or Zoom. For those students that stop in or have more regular appointments, we are creating a space where we can provide optimum care to meet the mental health needs of our students and make a difference in their lives. Right when they walk in the door, they will know they are in a warm, safe place and feel a sense of comfort and care so that they can be the best student that they can be.” With construction well underway, the counseling center is scheduled to open by the spring of 2021.

Commencement Walkway Parents of Millbrook’s Class of 2020 raised more than $300,000 for what is surely among the most meaningful class gifts in Millbrook’s history. The Class of 2020 Commencement Path became a reality this summer as construction was completed, to extend a beautiful brick path from the chapel to Pulling Quadrangle and complete the oval walkway around the Flagler Quadrangle. This path now forever commemorates the walk to the graduation tent taken by each Millbrook graduate. Along the path, bricks bear the name of each individual graduate of this class, and an embedded granite stone names this path in honor of the Class of 2020, the only Millbrook class in history unable to celebrate their graduation in person. We wished it had been possible to have an on-campus commencement for the Class of 2020 in August, but because of the continuing concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, this event did not come to pass. However, the Class of 2020 prefects proposed, instead, a one-year reunion to take place in June 2021. We continue to hope we can have a healthy and happy gathering and that we can be with the Class of 2020 on the bricks for an in-person celebration, procession, and formal dedication. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the VIth form parents and grandparents who generously supported the Class of 2020 Commencement Path and to the parent chairs who led the effort—Colleen Cooper and David Bloom, Dyllan McGee and Max Weigel, and Sarah and Regg Jones. Mr. Bloom shared these thoughts during the Prize Ceremony held in May:
“Millbrook’s decision to convert an otherwise simple walkway into a permanent commemoration of this class is emblematic of the giving and empathic community at Millbrook. This new and special space will forever provide a precious and actual touchstone for the Class of 2020 and those who follow in their footsteps.”

PLANNING AND PIVOTING: Farmhouse & More COVID Preparedness As we began to plan in the late spring to safely reopen school for 2020-2021, the list of updates, upgrades, and additions to facilities grew daily. At the same time, we began to hire additional staff in critical areas – nurses in the Miller Brown Health Center and custodians for the physical plant. Planning early and strategically allowed Millbrook to expand housing, with the addition of a new 40-person dormitory, and to create a safe 12-bed quarantine facility adjacent to the health center for use as needed. These substantial investments put Millbrook in an enviable position, as other schools were simply too late or too large to be able to undertake similar initiatives. The following is a representative, not exhaustive, list of how Millbrook prepared to reopen school under the safest conditions possible. • The new 20-room dorm, dubbed Farmhouse, sits on the north side of the farm with bucolic views of sunflowers, tomato vines, and pumpkin patches. Boys living in Farmhouse enjoy the largest rooms on campus, and the only ones with air-conditioning! • The quarantine building has twelve beds that will allow us to safely house students in a temporary space should we need to separate and restrict the movement of any students potentially exposed to COVID-19 until they are able to leave campus. • We created three new learning spaces in Schoolhouse by reclaiming offices and converting them to classrooms. These new classrooms allow for smaller classes and can accommodate desks at least 6’ apart. • We installed HEPA filters in every classroom and dorm lounge.

Millbrook School
• We created an expansive outdoor dining area on the north patio of the dining hall. Students and faculty can eat at tables overlooking the farm that is producing some of what they are enjoying for lunch and dinner. • We built several additional outdoor spaces around campus for classes, dorm meetings, advisory meetings, etc. All students were gifted a Millbrook folding chair, so teachers and students can meet in any of these new spaces or under any shady tree. • Maintenance staff installed Plexiglass barriers in classrooms, offices, and vehicles, graphics on every exterior door as a reminder to wear a mask and keep socially distanced, and additional graphic reminders on handwashing best practices in every bathroom on campus. • A 30% increase in custodial staff is allowing us to clean far more frequently and deeply. • By increasing the number of nursing staff, we are able to keep our students and teachers healthy and safe and test and manage daily screenings efficiently.

Retiring Faculty Millbrook is an ever-growing and always-adapting organism conceived by many minds, shaped by countless hands, and sustained with wisdom and care. Though our 800 beautiful acres of main campus, wetlands, and woodlands appear on many maps, the school exists in the souls of those who have come together to make this place. Saying goodbye is never easy. Fortunately, the legacies built by this group of retiring faculty will ensure that they will never be too far from our school and our hearts.

EILEEN JEFFREYS 37 YEARS Eileen Jeffreys meant so much to so many during her remarkable career in Millbrook’s Miller Brown Health Center. Along with administering to the corporeal care and maintenance of a busy student body, EJ tirelessly shared her spiritual side with the community. Her beautiful singing voice reinforced the totality of her commitment to being present at countless chapel services. If the idea of community can be personified, and the embodiment of curiosity, enthusiasm, and generosity can walk among us, it does so in Miss J. From her commitment to lifelong learning as a dedicated member of the Millbrook faculty book club to her full-throated support of her beloved Mustang baseball team, she inspired and encouraged. Her advisees could always count on her wisdom, good judgment, and support—many credit EJ for their success at Millbrook. EJ’s honesty and openness have inspired students and faculty alike to seek their own spirituality and moral center. By resolutely being her best self EJ shared her soul with those she has touched at Millbrook.

BILL HARDY 30 YEARS In retirement, Bill Hardy will continue to live the life of an artist because it is who he is and what he does. In the classroom, Mr. Hardy pushed students to connect with their own creativity as they absorbed the history of art and aesthetics. In the studio, teaching drawing and painting, he encouraged working student-artists to explore their inner lives, the world around them, and their place in it. As a tireless advocate for the arts at Millbrook, Mr. Hardy’s vision is perhaps most fully expressed by the Holbrook Arts Center itself. After beginning his Millbrook teaching career in the Mill, he dreamed of a versatile hub for the arts on campus that could provide working space for both performing and visual arts. The very proximity of theater to sculpture, painting to dance, music to drawing, and gallery to studio creates an environment of unfettered creative exploration. Holbrook's placement at nearly the center of campus further demonstrates the prominence of the arts at Millbrook. Countless students credit Mr. Hardy for making art an ongoing part of their lives, so his legacy extends well beyond campus. The vitality of the arts at Millbrook is certainly one of Mr. Hardy's greatest works.

Along with her archivist role, over the years she coached tennis and worked in the athletics department, the library, and the communications office. Mrs. Zeiser was also a dorm head in Abbott, and her optimistic and steady manner was of great value to the many students she guided. No great institution can advance without an accurate record of what has come before. Cathy Zeiser’s thirdfloor garret in Schoolhouse provides a sweeping view of campus as it is and as it has been. Her work as Millbrook School’s archivist has been and will continue to be so important to the life of the school. Mrs. Zeiser’s organizational skills and encyclopedic knowledge of all things Millbrook has made her the go-to for information on alumni and events. Her work and the relationships she built ensure that Millbrook's past remains very present.

Mr. Zeiser ran the community service program and led the council that designed it, was the founding coach of the Mustang softball team, and was a dorm parent in Abbott, which the Zeisers called home for much of their time at Millbrook. Extracurriculars aside, Mr. Zeiser also chaired the English department and is best known for guiding his students to use literature to explore and expand their minds. With his distinctive mustache and announcer’s voice, Mr. Zeiser could hold any room and captivate students at any level. Perhaps most comfortable outside of his comfort zone, his collaborative classes with Bill Hardy engendered lively discussions, intellectual risk-taking, and creative freedom.

JOHN SIEGENTHALER 19 YEARS In some ways, John Siegenthaler is the personification of a boarding school faculty member. Rarely seen without an appropriately-selected and precisely-tied bowtie, Mr. Siegenthaler may have presented a stern and demanding face to his classics students, soccer players, and residential charges in Prum Hall. Still, he possessed an abiding love for boarding school life, in general, and Millbrook, in particular. Along with guiding his students through history and Latin, Mr. Siegenthaler also taught a senior elective focused on the history of boarding schools. Mr. Siegenthaler’s dedication to Millbrook was evidenced by the commitment and care he invested in everything he did. In all of his roles, and for students and faculty alike, he has been a model of service, commitment, caring expectation, and professionalism. There are few people and places in this school that aren't better for his involvement.

BETTY SIEGENTHALER 19 YEARS Betty Siegenthaler retires from Millbrook having served in many roles, perhaps most visibly as director of events. Efficient, succinct, clear-thinking, and organized, she also possesses a nuanced understanding of schools. It is no surprise then that she has been wonderfully effective at planning parents weekends, Grandparents Day, alumni reunions, and commencements, all memorable and successful because of her aesthetic sense, insight, and dedication to a job done well. Really, Mrs. Siegenthaler is a teacher at heart, one who loves children and is always trying to teach. This was evident in her work as an outstanding elementary educator and administrator, in her work as a wise and loving adviser, and in the close friendships she forged and sustained with her colleagues.

JOAN DUGGAN 11 YEARS Joan Duggan came to Millbrook to lead the Colhoun Academic Center and establish it as a full-service resource for all Millbrook students seeking to shore up their academic skills. Ms. Duggan’s many years of tutoring experience provided her with insight into how to best support learners faced with various challenges. Her expertise in identifying the gaps and unmet needs that can hinder success can be attributed to the keen observation and personalized attention she provided to all of her students. Within the academic center on the chapel's lower level, Ms. Duggan created a comfortable and supportive environment free of judgment and pressure. As the center's work grew, so too did the team of learning specialists dedicated to giving students ownership of their academic pursuits. She actively recruited tutors for all subject matter and thereby created a vital resource for all students.

Teachers and Leaders KATHY HAVARD Former Dean of Faculty Kathy Havard has returned full-time to the classroom during an era of unprecedented change at Millbrook and in the world at large. While making an impact on students in the single English section she continued to teach annually, her work as dean of faculty was hugely beneficial and productive in advancing the culture of pedagogy across all disciplines and grade levels. Ms. Havard shaped and modernized the dean of faculty role and tailored it to the type of learning environment she and others hoped to create at Millbrook. Back in 2001, Ms. Havard and History Department Chair Mark Clizbe cochaired the search committee to appoint a new dean of faculty; at the time, she unknowingly wrote the job description for the very job she would eventually fill. As the search for an appropriate candidate wound on, Ms. Havard gained useful insights into the job requirements and the opportunities that the position could offer to an ambitious and motivated candidate. It eventually became clear to Headmaster Drew Casertano and Mr. Clizbe that Ms. Havard herself was the best person for the job. Putting into practice some of what she learned in the candidate search process, Ms. Havard first sought to shore up academics at Millbrook. Almost immediately, she began a project to map the curriculum and better connect the departments, giving students a more cohesive pathway through their experience and engendering collaboration between the disciplines. Curricular mapping begat a more interdisciplinary approach to teaching and progressed into a reorientation of the overall goal of learning at Millbrook. Focus moved from the traditional content-focused lessons to those that are more skills-oriented. Ms. Havard helped build and sustain a strong team of department chairs who, eager to learn about and employ new and transformative research on brain science and pedagogy, worked together to make this happen.

Millbrook School
Faculty were seen, heard, and understood by Ms. Havard. She was instrumental in enacting a covenant between Millbrook educators and the board of trustees charged with financial oversight of the school. She undertook research and benchmarking to ensure that Millbrook could attract and retain the best teachers possible. Ms. Havard also supported and advocated for faculty, and she did so tirelessly. She was involved in hiring, evaluation, and, especially, in the professional development necessary to sustain career educators. Regular classroom visits kept Ms. Havard attuned to students' needs and led to the creation of the new class schedule in place at Millbrook for the last 15 years. Recognizing the need to continually re-evaluate and adjust, she recently worked with faculty to roll out a brand new "ribbon" schedule that includes a later start time each day, extended class periods (70-minutes), and more built-in time for extra help and special programming. Perhaps her most monumental achievement is the creation, by committee, of what is known as The Rubric. Fully titled "The Rubric To Describe Excellence in Classroom Teaching," it is a 12-page document about what it means to be a teacher at Millbrook School. She designed The Rubric to be a tool for faculty to assess and benchmark their work. It “brought the art and craft of classroom teaching front and center,” said Ms. Havard, “and articulated how it functions in every part of our teaching life here at school.” This fall, Ms. Havard returns full-time to the classroom to teach English and to live the changes that she has helped put in place. She is excited to reach students on a more individual level, talk about literature, share ideas, connect and reconnect with colleagues, and deepen friendships. Ms. Havard’s accomplishments as dean of faculty are both deep and wide, and her spirit and ideals are in many ways manifest in Millbrook School.

JASPER TURNER Incoming Dean of Faculty Jasper Turner comes to Millbrook at a time of growth and necessary innovation. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, faculty members have adapted and innovated to reach students through remote learning. Close collaboration and cooperation have always been hallmarks of a Millbrook education, so the restrictions necessitated by current conditions have created unprecedented challenges. As this unconventional school year unfolds, Mr. Turner is proving to be invaluable as a sounding board, advocate, and cheerleader. As a graduate of Deerfield School, and having held positions at Berkshire School, Tabor Academy, and most recently St. Paul Academy & Summit School in Minnesota, Mr. Turner has an in-depth knowledge of the workings of independent schools. The Millbrook interview process was unique and included classroom observation and a feedback session. In conjunction with the traditional getting-to-know-you aspects of the hiring process, this evaluative exercise exemplified an openness and willingness to collaborate that Mr. Turner found especially appealing. The role of the dean of faculty evolved during Kathy Havard’s tenure with the addition of two academic deans who take primary responsibility for students’ academic growth. This new division of labor will permit Mr. Turner to focus more specifically on the faculty and their needs for growth and renewal, and he plans to extend Millbrook’s “Known and Needed” credo from the students to the faculty. As a teacher of computer science, economics, and math, Mr. Turner brings a breadth of educational experience to the job and will surely be a valued resource on campus. “Champion of the faculty,” according to Mr. Turner, “is right in the job description.” Since his arrival, Mr. Turner has taken one-on-one walks with many faculty members, at a safe distance, to get to better know his colleagues. He plans to continue the process of becoming a familiar face to all on campus by spending scheduled time out of his office in classrooms and otherwise interacting with students. Even in the new normal of online video conferencing, Mr. Turner has felt the warmth and enthusiasm that permeates life at Millbrook.

TRUSTEES
WELCOMING OUR NEWEST TRUSTEE
DEAN DAKOLIAS P ’22 Elected January 2020 Dean Dakolias, parent of Copeland ’22, brings a wealth of financial expertise to Millbrook’s board of trustees. As the co-chief investment officer of Fortress Credit Funds, he invests in a broad array of asset classes on a global basis as his firm manages over $40 billion in assets. Prior to joining Fortress, Mr. Dakolias was a co-founder and managing director of American Commercial Capital LLC (a specialty finance company) and Coronado Advisors (an SEC-registered broker-dealer), both of which were sold to Wells Fargo & Co. in 2001. Mr. Dakolias received his bachelor’s degree in physics from Columbia University and was a member of the Columbia lightweight crew team for four years. Committed to supporting educational programming, Mr. Dakolias currently serves on Columbia’s Board of Visitors for the School of Engineering and Applied Science and on their Athletic Leadership Committee. He also serves as treasurer for the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, the largest and oldest research center providing graduate students and scholars from affiliated North American academic institutions a base for the advanced study of all aspects of Greek Culture. Mr. Dakolias is a co-founder and member of the Executive Committee of The Hellenic Initiative, which
provides crisis relief and invests in Greece's economic renewal through entrepreneurship and economic development. Through Project Zoe, he is helping an innovative effort to build private partnerships to protect refugees and help them resettle in safe countries where they may rebuild their lives. When Copeland began his search for the right high school, “community” was a buzzword tossed around often enough to become white noise. But the more the Dakolias family learned about Millbrook, the more they came to appreciate how “community” is truly the school’s guiding principle. “Connections woven between students, teachers, advisors, coaches, and families foster an environment of learning and discovery. Add to that the stunning campus and legacy of Millbrook, we were confident Copeland would thrive here.” On Millbrook's board, Mr. Dakolias is a member of the School Life Committee and chair of the Investment Committee. He looks forward to supporting what has been achieved financially, academically, and socially, and continuing to grow the health of the institution.
“I want to do what I can to help Millbrook be in the best position to continue to educate future generations of young men and women.”

Leading the Way: People Who Make Millbrook, Millbrook
Here, we shine a spotlight on some of our alumni and parents who give their time, their heart, and their experience in service to Millbrook. Their contributions and service to our school help us bring our mission to life, day in and day out.
ALUMNI BOARD MEMBERS JOIN COMPASS COMMITTEE TO REOPEN SCHOOL SAFELY Three board members, Caroline A. Wamsler, PhD ’87, Charlotte Carroll Tracy ’88, and Gordon Pennoyer ’99, have been instrumental members of our Compass Committee, helping Millbrook School plan for and pivot quickly to remote learning and prepare well for reopening safely this September. Since March, these dedicated alumni generously gave their time, meeting with other trustees, faculty, and administrators, to assist in developing and implementing a broad and comprehensive strategy, particularly in their areas of expertise: academic life, residential and student life, and communications. Their thoughtful recommendations helped direct our plan to preserve community, accept uncertainty, and collaborate and communicate as often and as clearly as possible. We thank them for their leadership and willingness to help bring our students back to campus, where they can benefit from all that a Millbrook education offers.
CAROLINE WAMSLER, PHD ’87 Born and raised in Munich, Germany, Caroline A. Wamsler, PhD '87 came to Millbrook in 1984 and after graduation attended Wellesley College, where she earned her Bachelor of Arts degree. A specialist in Italian Renaissance art, Caroline received an MA and PhD in art history from Columbia University and has held positions as a visiting professor at Columbia University, Vassar College, Bard College, and Wesleyan University. Caroline's dedication to education is also evident in her philanthropic work with the New York Botanical Garden's Education Committee. She cares profoundly about Millbrook's core values of respect, integrity, service, stewardship, and curiosity, and she remains eager to make an impact on Millbrook’s future. Her impact was clear immediately this spring as she began working closely with Assistant Head for Academics Jarratt Clarke, with Academic Dean Eve Whitehouse, and with other members of the Compass Committee to look at how Millbrook might keep remote learning to a minimum while planning for an optimal hybrid model of asynchronous and synchronous learning if the possibility of bringing students back to campus became unfeasible. Caroline was concurrently working with faculty and administrators at Columbia, and she readily shared her insights as she worked through many of the same adjustments. Jarratt Clarke shares this about her ongoing collaboration with Caroline: “She was the perfect person to join the Academic Life Sub-committee since she lived this experience as a student at Millbrook. Also, as a current faculty member at Columbia, she had insights into their plans for remote and hybrid learning. She values efficiency and effectiveness, and with her help we made things happen and decided on Millbrook's next best steps. We so appreciate Caroline's commitment and the time she took to work with us, often once or more per week throughout the spring and into the summer.

LEADING THE WAY
CHARLOTTE CARROLL TRACY ’88 After Millbrook, Charlotte graduated from Lynchburg College and then earned a master's degree in education from Mills College. Moving to San Francisco, she taught at San Francisco Day School and Burke's School, and in 2007 she transitioned to teacher education at the Bay Area Teacher Training Institute while simultaneously directing the Associate Teacher Program at the Nueva School. Charlotte is an avid volunteer for good causes including Children of Shelters, Youth Speaks, and Reading Partners, and she is a very busy mom of three young children. Education is a part of her everyday life. As the chair of the School Life Committee, an alumna, and a parent, Charlotte was the perfect collaborator when we began thinking about what school life would look like upon our return to school in this COVID-era. Charlotte worked with Assistant Head of School for Student Life Dan Skoglund, Assistant Headmaster Jon Downs ’98, and a select number of faculty dorm heads. Dan Skoglund shares this about his work with Charlotte and her generosity with time and observations: “She is super insightful and has a unique perspective as an alumna and a parent of children at boarding school. She also has a real commitment to the adults on our campus and asked the crucial questions about how we would best support Millbrook's faculty and staff. She was a terrific sounding board as we were putting action steps together throughout the summer.”
GORDON PENNOYER ’99 With a degree in political science from Kenyon College, Gordon went to work for the Republican National Convention in the fall of 2003 and helped manage volunteers for the Presidential Inaugural Committee before returning to his alma mater, Millbrook, in 2005. Doing what he does best, connecting with people and sharing institutions’ stories, Gordon helped raise thousands of dollars for Millbrook's Alumni Annual Fund and for capital projects in two short years. After another stop at the Republican National Convention from 2007-2008, Gordon moved into work in the energy and utility sectors, joining Hill and Knowlton as a Senior Account Supervisor and member of their public affairs team providing strategic counsel to a wide range of clients. An opportunity to move to an in-house position as director of communications and investor relations was a natural next step, and Gordon headed to Chesapeake Energy in Oklahoma City, OK, where he went to work while earning his MBA from Rice University’s Jones Graduate School of Business. Chesapeake Energy continues to keep Gordon on his toes, as do his young twins, Alexandra and Brooks, who he and wife Andrea welcomed in 2016. Gordon joined Millbrook’s board of trustees in 2011 when he was elected as the head of the Alumni Association, and he has since been a sounding board and provider of excellent council. Director of Communications Michelle Blayney shares this about Gordon: “I love working with Gordon on important strategic communications. He is thoughtful and nuanced in his responses to questions, and he brings the perfect combination of experience, directness, finesse to the table. This, combined with his love of Millbrook, makes Gordon a valuable sounding board and contributor when a crisis strikes.”

LEADING THE WAY
COLLEEN COOPER AND DAVID BLOOM Spotlight on Service: When Jack Bloom ’20 was in his final year at his day school, he set his sights on finding a boarding school focused on community and connections with his peers, younger students, and teachers. His counselor suggested Millbrook, which was the first school he visited and the choice that immediately moved to the top of his list. Jack’s parents, Colleen Cooper and David Bloom, share, “From the day he stepped foot on campus, the feeling of community was palpable. Millbrook has everything Jack wanted—relationships, a school that draws people back, and opportunities to grow and expand and push his boundaries, all in a safe and caring place. At Millbrook’s Revisit Day, he was ready to sign on the line.” Colleen and David say that they, too, felt drawn into the community from the very beginning, and they wanted to demonstrate their support by volunteering. They were regular visitors to campus, and when Director of Parent Programs Barbara Gatski reached out to gauge their interest in helping with form-specific programs and fundraising, they joined enthusiastically in Jack’s IIIrd form year. Over four years, they volunteered in a myriad of ways, and by Jack’s VIth form year, they were eager to sign on as co-chairs of the VIth Form Gift Committee.
“We are such believers in the benefits of a Millbrook education, and there was not an experience that we had when we were at Millbrook that didn’t draw us in closer. We were so incredibly enthusiastic about Jack’s experience; helping to get other parents involved was extremely natural. Making a personal appeal for Millbrook was as easy as putting one foot in front of the other. In terms of fundraising, Millbrook is a small school with a remarkably mighty Annual Fund that does so much for the students. We made that point at the kick-off of the VIth Form Gift last fall. We played a small part in a very successful campaign, but we are very proud to have played any part at all.” The Class of 2020 was Millbrook’s first class unable to walk across the commencement stage to get their diplomas. They left campus in March fully expecting to enjoy all the joys of a senior spring— time with friends on the quad, prom, celebrating with friends and family, sharing thanks and goodbyes on Moving Up Day—but they finished the final two months of the school year remotely, had a virtual Prize Ceremony, and awaited their diplomas, which were mailed in August. Colleen and David and other VIth form parents worked with Barbara Gatski and Millbrook’s
alumni and development office to ensure that the Class of 2020 would continue to be known and needed, especially given the circumstances of their graduation. Thus, the Class of 2020 Commencement Path came to be. While a brick path was one component of a larger campus improvement plan, Colleen and David note the importance of the shift to honoring a group of students who missed the march to the tent and the ceremony's pomp and circumstance. “Millbrook made this happen for this class, etching the graduates’ names on the bricks. There is no other class gift on campus that lists all the graduates' names—it’s very special, visible, and symbolic. Our hope is that every Millbrook graduate who walks this path will always feel a sense of belonging. The Class of 2020 will feel that way and then some.” Colleen and David say that they can see how Jack’s Millbrook experience and the connections he made continue to inspire his love of learning. They add that he left Millbrook a fully formed person ready to become a member of society and to make the world a better place. Colleen and David have certainly made Millbrook better, and we are thankful for all that they have done and for the connections that they will always have with our school.

DEI Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
A MISSION-DRIVEN APPROACH After taking considerable time to review, discuss, and plan intentionally and substantively with a wide group of students, alumni, faculty, and administrators, we shared via email an update on Millbrook's diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) work. Following are the highlights from that communication, available in full on Millbrook’s website: www.millbrook.org/dei. Millbrook's mission states: In a community where every student is known and needed, Millbrook prepares its students for college and lives of meaning and consequence by instilling the values of respect, integrity, stewardship, service, and curiosity.
The following list is representative of, but not exhaustive of, our ongoing efforts to create change: • Improve anti-racist training & initiatives • Audit and incorporate DEI initiatives across the curriculum • Partner with programs to bring more students of color to Millbrook • Increase the endowment • Support alumni mentorship programs for Black and Latinx students • Continue and grow programming for reflection and challenging
The cornerstone of our mission is respect, yet we have heard from our Black and Latinx alumni that our mission didn’t always fully apply to them as they described the racism they experienced at Millbrook. For our mission and motto (Non Sibi Sed Cunctis, not for oneself but for all) to truly mean something, the values must apply to all members of our community all the time. Millbrook stands against racism and any harmful actions taken against any person due to race, color, religion, gender, gender expression, age, national origin, disability, or sexual orientation, and we are committed to deepening our strong commitment to listen, to learn, and to create and sustain an even more inclusive and anti-racist Millbrook. To this end, we spent the summer completing a thorough qualitative audit of our existing programs, policies, and tools to determine how we can do better.

Millbrook School
conversations related to DEI.
The final paragraph from our DEI mission statement, updated this summer with suggestions from students on our DEI Council, led by Noor Rahman ’21, reads: “We expect the members of this community to respect all that makes us unique and explore perspectives that challenge our own. We must therefore equip our community with the language and skills necessary for honest inquiry and discussion, as we empower ourselves to be ethical citizens at Millbrook School and beyond.” This work will continue apace, and Millbrook School will be a leader in educating and raising consciousness on DEI issues to create a culture of inclusion and respect for all.

THE CARES ACT
Benefits for Charitable Giving Through 2020 The CARES Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020, and provides increased tax incentives for charitable giving. We share some recent changes to federal laws in hopes this information might be beneficial in your financial, estate, and charitable planning. If you don’t itemize, you may claim up to $300 in charitable deductions in 2020. The deduction is taken "above the line," which means that it reduces your adjusted gross income (AGI), resulting in a decreased tax burden.
For the 2020 tax year only, if you do itemize, you may deduct cash contributions to Millbrook School and most other public charities to offset up to 100% of your income. That is up from just 60% in 2019. Qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) are still a great way to make contributions if you are 70½ or older. If you are 70½ or older, a QCD or "IRA charitable rollover" allows you to make a tax-free gift of up to $100,000 to Millbrook from your IRA. While the benefit of using a QCD to satisfy your required minimum distribution has been waived for 2020, a qualified charitable distribution remains a great way to make tax-advantageous contributions, especially if you don't itemize your deductions. Since the gift doesn't count as income, it can reduce your annual income level. This may help lower your Medicare premiums and decrease the amount of Social Security subject to tax.
Take advantage of increased deduction limits for corporations. The contribution limit for corporations has been raised to 25% for cash contributions in 2020.

PAYING IT FORWARD
WITH A $5 MILLION BEQUEST
James W. Laird ’65 was taught by his father early on about the importance of giving back to those institutions and people who make a difference in one’s life. In today’s world we often refer to a legacy bequest as “paying it forward.” When Jim sadly died this past April at his home in Florida, we learned that he left a gift of $5 million to help endow Millbrook’s Financial Aid Program. As a result, future families and generations of students will be the fortunate recipients of his generosity. During his life Jim engaged in numerous philanthropic causes, including musical, theatrical, and social organizations. In today’s Millbrook lexicon, Jim certainly subscribed to the Millbrook value of “leaving things better than we found them.” While at Millbrook, Jim figured out ways to help serve the school community. He worked tirelessly with Mrs. Grove and his fellow students to stage the perennially popular book fair in the Flagler Memorial Library. His experience as a member of the Library Community Service Committee led to his lifelong love of reading. Jim did not graduate from Millbrook as he left after his Vth form year. In the ensuing years, he kept the school on his radar, and when he returned to campus in June 2019, he was immediately struck by the school’s growth and development since his days on campus. All of us who care about Millbrook are grateful to Jim for his generosity. His gift sets a high standard for ensuring excellence on campus.
MILLBROOK’S 1931 SOCIETY The 1931 Society is the name of the school’s planned giving program. Membership is open to all who have made provisions for a planned gift during their lifetime or who have included the school in their estate plans going forward. Currently, the alumni and development office has been notified by more than 100 alumni, parents, and friends that Millbrook is in their estate plans. For further information, please contact Mr. Robert Anthony ’65 at ranthony@millbrook.org.

ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

Three members of Millbrook’s team took on new roles and responsibilities in the alumni and development office earlier this year, and we welcomed a new colleague as well. All work with our parents, alumni, past parents, and friends to support the school's continuing momentum, financial health, and ambitions. BARBARA GATSKI assumed the role of director of annual giving and parent engagement, providing leadership for alumni and parent fundraising, relationship-building, program development, and volunteer management.

Millbrook School
Development Report The 2019-2020 school year was an exceptional one for Millbrook School in so many ways, and
THE ONGOING SUCCESS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OFFICE WAS AGAIN A SIGNIFICANT FACTOR. The board of trustees led the way and ensured that Millbrook's strong momentum continued apace. Total gifts to the school amounted to more than $7 million. The Annual Fund exceeded our ambitious target of $2,350,000. Millbrook's first-ever "Day of Giving" in May raised nearly $200,000.00 from 592 donors – an extraordinary figure by any standard. We extend our sincere appreciation to our legions of loyal alumni, parents, and friends for their abiding support and their utmost faith and confidence in our mission and in our students and faculty, and we salute and thank our enthusiastic and determined alumni class agents and parent volunteers who engaged our constituents at all levels of the Millbrook spectrum. Despite the seemingly endless challenges presented by the coronavirus, our faculty and students switched to remote learning in March, and the academic program remained on task as the school community united in its resolve to finish the year on a strong note. While in-person Commencement and Alumni Weekend were victims of our new reality, we plan to celebrate next June the Class of 2020 and the five-year reunion classes from years ending in ’00, ’01, ’05, and ’06. The year ahead promises to bring opportunity and challenges as we bid farewell to Drew and Linda Casertano following an incredible 31 years of service. Their leadership, vision, and commitment truly transformed our school during their time here, and they are definitely leaving Millbrook “better than they found it.” As Headmaster-Elect Jon Downs ’98 and his wife, Erin, move to center stage, it is clear they will receive the full support of the entire school community in the coming years. There is so much more to look forward to. In 2021 we will open a new counseling center and a new business office, which will play vital roles in supporting our students and families. In the next year, Pulling House will undergo a major rebuild and renovation once sufficient funds are raised. A new alumni & development office will be built with access onto Pulling Circle and will provide a central place for alumni to gather when they visit campus in future years. In addition, we will relocate the tennis courts to make room for a new fieldhouse next to the Mills Athletic Center. On behalf of the Alumni & Development team, we are grateful for your past generosity, and we are eager to partner with you to create an even stronger Millbrook tomorrow.
