Beyond Basics Report from the Principal

The “back to basics” movement has been in vogue in the United States since the mid seventies. It is a movement that claims that the sole purpose of education is to teach students to read, write, speak and calculate accurately. In its purest form, any programs other than these can be seen as “frills.” The movement has been given its teeth by a new phenomenon in American history: the refusal of taxpayers to approve school budgets. They see a lesson in the history of edu cation in the nineteen sixties and early seventies . . . more money does not guarantee better education, broader programs do not insure better educated students. Failing test scores, increasing adult illiteracy, the failure of some of our nation’s teachers to pass minimum competence tests, and the sometimes irresponsible and undisciplined behavior of high school students are all seen as indications of the failure of liberalized education.

As with any movement that gains popularity, the back-to-basics cry is frequently mis understood. Although educators and editors define basics somewhat differently, the commonly accepted definition if that they are communications, computation and comprehension. Under communications come the skills of reading, writing, speaking and the fine arts. These are understood to be the chief means by which individuals communicate with each other. It is interesting to note that although the media are the most common form of communication for the majority of the adults, very few people include them in the basics. Computation includes a facility with addition, subtraction, multiplication, division. Generally included also are the ability to understand and to work word problems and at least some understanding of elementary algebra and geometry. Comprehension includes logic, synthesis and analysis. This third component of the basics is sometimes underplayed by funda mentalists who feel that the skills of comprehension will follow naturally from an understanding of communications and computation. It would be hard to find an educated person who does not sympathize to some degree with the back-to-basics movement. We have all been disappointed and concerned with the failures of our schools to educate young people as we feel they should be educated. Most people realize that the schools have been given too many tasks: they have been asked to educate, to counterbalance the racial and economic inequities of our culture, to teach students to drive automobiles, to type, to vote, and to prepare themselves in all ways for adulthood. This ever-mushrooming list of goals makes it difficult to focus on the primary purposes of education. It is no wonder, then, that the cry for basic education has been received so well by so many. Basic education, however, is just that: basic. It should not be confused with the good and full elementary or secondary education. 1

The basics are the tools that allow a student to explore j| e world of science, history, literature, mathematics, foreign language and the fine and performing arts. While it is true that a student cannot accomplish much in these fields without basics, it is also true that a student who has only the basics is not well educated. For that reason, the Montclair Kimberley Academy is not part of the back-to-basics movement. Basics involve drudgery. We are willing to demand this drudgery and the hard work that are involved in education, but what we are not willing to cut out is the fun, the excitement and the experimentation that accompany growing and learning. Our curriculum is designed to introduce students to the sophistication of the disciplines, focusing on depth of understanding rather than on broad, superficial knowledge. Our education includes an exposure to sports, student activities, internships and exchanges. Concern for the development of a personal ethic and value system, the enhancement of self-knowledge and self-confidence and the encouragement of curiosity and initiative are also beyond basics. An independent school which does not include these aspects of education has shirked the responsibilities of its independence. No one can predict the coming decade with any certainty, but there are indicators that point to a direction. At MKA in the Primary School, we are focusing on two specific areas: reading and enrichment. A specialist in each augments the work of the classroom teacher. The after-school program initiated and run by parents provides a wealth of recreational and learning opportunities for youngsters. To insure that the excitement of learning permeates the hard work of becoming educated, we are striving for both a strong basic curriculum and a fuller, more individualized program. We want students to recognize their own special talents and interests and to pursue them whenever possible. The Middle School too emphasizes reading and arithmetic, but also has developed mini-courses in a variety of subjects, notably computer education and such projects as the eighth grade study of Williamsburg and the seventh grade survival unit which combine knowledge learned in several subjects with a practical experience. In the Upper School the reading specialist helps students improve their reading skills and teaches them how to study and to concentrate. An increasingly flexible program builds on an introduction to the academic disciplines of a college preparatory program. Students now pursue chosen areas in depth. Here the basic skills of comprehension and judgement can be furthered. Students also develop the tools to deal with new information and situations without undue stress. As we individualize, students capitalize on their own gifts and reach success through a variety of routes. A computer program, an exchange with the Haberdashers’ Aske’s School in England, a strong assembly program and career days broaden the perspectives of our young men and women. It has to be recognized and admitted that no one has yet come up with a foolproof plan of education. We do not propose to have the ultimate answer, but are building on strengths of the past while examining the possibilities and new ideas of the present. In all of this, we seek to avoid the looseness and iconoclasm of the late sixties and the smallness and myopia of the back-to-basics movement. The Montclair Kimberley Academy provides a solid and purposeful education for its students. I believe that with an ever-increasing and strengthening student body, a well educated and experienced faculty, and the support of our many constituencies, the eighties will be a very strong decade for our School.

G o Cougars, Go!

This year’s Homecoming football game on Oct. 4 will be played against Princeton Day School.

All of MKA’s phys ed classes are now co-educational. The activities, such as running, volleyball, and swimming are geared to this. Physical education class activities are designed to build cardio vascular strength as well as to teach skills in individual and team sports.

The nine courts at the Kimberley campus are used by Middle School phys ed classes and by both the Upper and Middle School tennis teams. Fencing, tennis, golf and running are among the lifetime sports offered to encourage students to continue to be physically active.

The overriding aim of MKA's sports program is participation in interscholastic sports and ¡^physical education classes but the school’s emphasis on excellence also results in winning teams. Participation in the after school sports program is voluntary, but phys ed classes are required for all students. Cardiovascular strength is emphasized in an ongoing conditioning program. The needs of both the active athlete and the student needing work on basic motor skills are met through drills designed to develop agility, flexibility, speed and endurance. Students are encouraged to remain active through exposure to lifetime sports such as golf, running, fencing and tennis. Fifty percent of the boys and fifty-five percent of the girls in grades 7-12 earned varsity letters each season last year in the voluntary Interscholastic sports program. Involve ment is stressed because sports provide an opportunity for students to learn about themselves in a non-academic environment — to discover a capacity for pleasure, pain and cooperation. Although winning is not the most Important aspect of the sports program, the students are taught to aim for excellence. In the 1979-80 season, MKA teams demonstrated the result of this thrust for excellence. ||[he girls’ volleyball team reached the finals of the Prep School Championship competition; four other teams were In the semi-finals. The girls’ fencing team was the best in New Jersey, competing against public and private school teams. The boys' lacrosse team won the New Jersey Independent School Athletic Association Championships and was second In the NJ Lacrosse League Championships. The Ice hockey team reached the semi-finals of the NJ State Interscholastic Championships. A senior girl won the individual NJISAA Girls’ Cross Country Championship. Carmen Marnell, Director of Athletics

Forty seven teams in seventeen sports make up MKA’s seventh to twelfth grade interscholastic program.

The teams are coached entirely by the physical education teaching staff and the academic faculty.

Soccer is one of eleven varsity sports available for girls in the Upper School.

“Every person needs an arena,, a place to prove himself. Many can find one on a basketball court, a hockey field or a base ball diamond.”

Computers Come to School Computers are not new to MKA. “Oscar,” described by Ken Mansuy, has been a part of the math department in the Upper School since 1973, and as early as 1969 time-sharing arrangements made computer courses an option at the Upper School. Each year, about thirty students enroll in either beginning or advanced programming electives. Two of last year’s seniors became so expert in the field that for an independent project they taught a special course for Upper School students who had completed the advanced programming and wanted to go further into computer theory. But until this year, computers have not really “come to school” for more than a handful of students. Now, thanks to the imagination and generosity of trustee James D. Timmons, Middle School students have four terminals and time sharing on a major computer. Charlaine Chariton, of the Middle School math department, is chairman of a faculty team who have been studying computers and computer appli cations for MKA. Mrs. Charlton discusses the work of this group.

Developing MKA’s Computer Curriculum

Charlaine Charlton, Middle School Mathematics Chairman, Computer Curriculum Committee This summer, Peter Ebling, Middle School English teacher, Judy Kemlitz, chairman of the Upper School science department, and I have been working on ways to broaden the use of computers to include ultimately all students at MKA. We spent two weeks at the Taft School in Connecticut in a seminar on “The Instructional Uses of Computers.” This fall we will offer workshops for MKA faculty from kindergarten through' twelfth grade. This summer we also developed tutorial and drill programs in grammar, foreign language and arithmetic, and simulations in probability and statistics, economics, social studies, physics and chemistry. One of the simulations will be used by Anthony Daur’s seventh grade class in World Cultures. For this course each student makes a major “Country Report,"

looking up such varied statistics as birth and death rates, population density, ethnic and social patterns, j|rfant mortality, food production and growth rates. From these, the students draw conclusions on the importance of the statistics, their correlations, and their significance for the country’s future. This year, using a program developed this summer, students will enter on the computer the statistics and data from their reports, see how much more easily they can derive the answers they have sought, and-. how much more can be done with their data. The class then can take all the information from the individual reports and make comparisons and projections based on the total data they have obtained. Says Middle School headmaster, Alexander Calder III, “We think the students will be fascinated as they discover the dramatic difference a computer makes. While learning much more than they could have using traditional methodsmne students w ill also be gaining ease with computers - ] and having fun.” Seventh grade math students will also be offered a two week computer programming course in BASIC with a series of problem-solving projects due throughout the year, covering such topics as percent, commission, interest, perimeter and area formulas, and algebraic applications. By 1981 -82, Brookside, the Primary School, will have its own micro-computer, probably either an "Apple,” or a “Pet.” With this the children will do drills, play games and develop computer familiarity. 1981 -82 will mark the year of much broader use of computers throughout the school, a widening of applications which will Increase steadily, according to MKA Principal, Dr. Frances R. O’Connor. Says Dr. O’Connor, “ In this computer age, our students must develop the same literacy in computers that they traditionally have had with the written word. We are now developing the faculty competence and the curriculum to assure our providing our students with such literacy.” Computer Education at the Upper School Today

Ken Mansuy, Mathematics Department In a nearly invisible room across from the mathematics department lounge, a mini computer winks its panel of lights, it’s pedigree is Data General Nova 2/10, a.k.a. . Oscar. An air-conditioner hums in the background. Three teletypes and a video terminal surround the main frame. Students of various descriptions can be found almost any time during school hours tapping at one of the computer’s keyboards. Some are playing exotic games, some are beginners experimenting with BASIC, and some are actually doing academic work. Two courses are available to students: Computer Programming M471, an introduction whose co-requisite is Algebra II, and Advanced Programming M473, pre-requisite M471 and approval of the department in Programming M471. Students have their first opportunity to work with a gadget that does exactly what It is told to do, no more and no less. That usually causes much more trouble than the student expects. They start with simple (or even simple-minded) projects such as counting, adding, multiplying, taking powers and roots. These are developed into translation of familiar mathematical problems Into computer terms. Students learn how to apply BASIC algorithms to number theory, polynomials, equations, and many other topics. Their final project is to write and run a “teaching” program a program that asks questions, corrects your answers, and gives you a score. Students base their teaching program on simple arithmetic, equation solving, history, foreign language vocabulary, trivia or whatever off-beat subject may interest them. Some of these have been used as drill exercises for Middle School pupils. Advanced Programming M473 gives students a choice of various projects of different degrees of difficulty, and drawn from far corners of the world of mathematics. Some such are sorting and computing statistical criteria of a data list; matrix operation; real roots of polynomial equations; length of and area under a graph and many others. The student is also invited to create projects related to his/her own interest. Most computer students continue programming in college and appreciate their experience with Oscar. And many who didn’t get to know Oscar, wish they had.

“Betsy Gelenitis is a city girl, but her claim to fame has come from skills that could not be acquired iffith e middle of a booming metropolis. Gelenitis is a sailor, B i fact, the Montclair Kimberley Academy graduate is rated as one of the top female skippers in the country.” So reads an article filed from Rochester, N.Y. at the time of the World S inglehanded Sailing Championships where Betsy was competing last fall. Betsy had already won th e 'A m e rica n Singlehanded Championship, the New England Women’s Intercollegiate Sailing Singlehanded Cham pionship, and was the top woman finisher (39th out of a field of 209) in the National Laser Championships, despite it being her first time in Lasers. But the type of boat is not important. Betsy hasifwon in Lightnings, M Scows, dinghies, and la fe ® L a sers. She won the American title her second time In Lasers, and in the Worlds placed 5th In spite of capsizing B i heavy wind In several. races.

Sailor, Betsy herself says, “ I never expected to do as well as I did. Until my sophomore year at Tufts, I never looked on sailing from a competitive standpoint. I did well as an intercollegiate: sailor and that was when I took- sailing seriously. Before that, I always sailed for fun." Training and consistency are keys to her success, Betsy says. Rujm|ing, calisthenics and working with weights are parts o f the training program she uses to maintain the strength necessary to race a Laser which she describes as a “very physical boat.” She also believes that it works to “sail clean rather than trying to win race after race. Of course you sail to win, but if you come in second consistently in a regatta, you’ll do better than the people who are fluctuating all day." This and the concentration to "think tactics all the way," are Betsy’s formula for success. And she’s not the only Gelenitis to apply it successfully. Brother Jim, MKA’80 and Paul, MKA 7 6 are strong competitors too. In fact, last summer Paul and Betsy teamed up to become finalists in the Lightning North Americans up in Canada.
