Who are Laurel girls?

06

their intellect, develop their confidence, and discover their passions. Laurel girls embrace over a century of tradition and develop bonds of friendship that last a lifetime. They are young women who become leaders in their colleges, industries, and communities.

Laurel girls stand out. They are ambitious, take risks, and welcome challenges.Theyareindividualswhohone

Laurel’s suburban-rural advantage gives our girls an edge.

Two- Campus Advantage

08

With childhood needs and development in mind, our girls are at the right place at the right time. At our Lyman Campus in Shaker Heights, Kindergarten, First and Second Graders begin their journey through Primary School. Third, Fourth and Fifth Graders complete the Primary years just seven miles away at our 150acre Butler Campus in Russell Township. Girls return to the Lyman Campus for Middle and Upper School to embark on Sixth through Twelfth Grades. While we benefit from being a two-campus school that provides flexible indoor and outdoor learning spaces, we are one school when it comes to our philosophical approach to our students.

Laurel’s Center for Research on Girls

Putting the world’s best research to work for girls.

Founded in 2007, Laurel’s Center for Research on Girls (LCRG) studies how girls learn, think and feel and makes its ground-breaking findings available to girls’ parents, educators and advocates. LCRG has become a nationally recognized resource for independent schools.

At Laurel, LCRG puts into practice research that connects exceptional academic outcomes with social and emotional well-being. The Laurel curriculum reflects research on purpose, the fundamental features of inclusive classrooms, and proven approaches for engaging and retaining girls in STEM fields. The value of LCRG is central to each Laurel girl’s experience.

#

Our student-athletes have the opportunity for skill development in several sports beginning in Kindergarten through P. E. and youth sports. Then in Middle and Upper School, they compete against top opponents, work with incredible coaches, get exposure to various colleges, and receive personalized training with our full-time strength and conditioning staff in our state-of-the-art facilities at Butler Campus. Since 2019 Laurel has sent 18 Varsity teams to State Competition and matriculated 11 students to college athletic programs!

Research shows that girls who participate in athletics have higher confidence and self-esteem. Laurel athletes develop the time-management and leadership skills, discipline and resilience that will serve them well in their academic work and throughout their lives. Additionally, the commitment girls feel to their teammates and their sport has lasting effects beyond their time at Laurel.

The visual arts faculty guide girls through both traditional and contemporary applications of diverse mediums from printmaking to computer art. From a very early age, students experiment with a variety of materials ranging from metals to ceramics to fabric culminating in an Upper School curriculum rich in creative expression.

Visual & Per forming Ar ts

From the sounds of dancing feet to vocal ensembles to full-stage productions, Laurel students are engaged in the performing arts from Kindergarten through Grade 12. The performing arts faculty encourages every student to discover her artistic passion and to develop her voice with confidence.

The arts are an integral part of the Laurel experience.

Through art history, music theory, dance, drama, drawing, painting, photography, computer design and more, students leave Laurel with an appreciation for the arts and with the skills to enjoy the arts for the rest of their lives.

The Primary years at Laurel are strategically divided into two experiences. The foundational years of Kindergarten-Second Grade are best served in our more traditional environment of the Lyman Campus, while by the time Laurel girls are in Third Grade, they are ready for more independence and new and innovative ways to hone their budding leadership skills and intellectual curiosity at our Butler Campus.

Primary School

Kindergarten - Grade 5

GRADES 3-5 AT THE BUTLER CAMPUS

Each jumper-clad girl experiences so much joy in her learning in Kindergarten-Second Grade! During these initial years of formal education, our girls investigate, experiment and discover through a personalized and enriched curriculum. As each girl moves from Kindergarten through Second Grade, she builds on her preparation from the previous year and brings her academic skills and her confidence to new heights. Girls complete this first stage of Laurel’s Primary School as blossoming scientists, writers, mathematicians and artists who know they are an integral part of the larger community.

KINDERGARTEN - GRADE 2 AT THE LYMAN CAMPUS

At the end of Second Grade, girls trade their jumpers for boots and a bicycle as they head to the Butler Campus for a curriculum rich in handson experiential learning. At Butler, learning happens outdoors, and the Third-Fifth Graders engage in a place-based curriculum that invites them to grapple with concepts from multiple perspectives. Students develop autonomy as they continue to develop intellectual strengths, academic skills, and resilience as they deepen their engagement with the environment through inquiry-based studies of the 150-acre Butler Campus. This experience for 8-11-year-old girls is unmatched by any other in Northeast Ohio.

In Laurel’s Primary School, innovative teachers design curriculum that dare each girl to step up, to challenge herself, to reach beyond what she already knows. We partner with parents to celebrate each girl as we propel her through the remarkable transformation from curious Kindergartener to confident Fifth Grader.

PRIMARY SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

learning takes center stage in Grades 3-5. The Butler Campus offers unparalleled facilities and resources to execute interdisciplinary units at each grade level including National Parks and Play & Playgrounds in Third Grade; Power & Purpose, interdependence in Colonial America, and The Suffrage Movement in Fourth Grade; and Renewable Energy, Interactions with Ecosystems, and Human Impact in Fifth Grade.

INTERDISCIPLINARY LEARNING AND IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES

PRIMARY SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

Students learn best when instruction is relationship-based, and they retain information when learning is engaging and relevant, and feedback is offered in real time. Grade-level themes shape deep investigations of big ideas and help girls add strength to their understanding by connecting learning in each subject. In Grades K-2, learning is hands-on and extends to specials so students can explore themes through multiple disciplines, bringing the content to life. Kindergarteners engage with the world around them through their study of homes and habitats; First Graders think about their place in the world as they study families—now, long ago, near and far; and Second Graders focus on natural resources and how they impact how people Place-based,live.  experiential

LEADERSHIP

24

Leadership is a thread that runs Kindergarten through Fifth Grade–from daily or weekly class-room jobs or stewardship roles to being role models for younger Buddies. Primary students are called to make their classroom, campus and school a better place by upholding important community norms and standards for behavior and contributing to the culture of our school in meaningful and productive ways. Second and Fifth Graders have particular roles that they fulfill as leaders—from class announcements to additional community expectations. Primary School student leaders are empowered to not only fulfill their roles but to look for opportunities to improve or enhance the culture and community.

PRIMARY SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

The Primary School uses enVision Mathematics as it combines problem-based learning and visual learning to deepen students’ conceptual understanding, math fluency, and the ability to transfer that knowledge and skill to new applications. The enVision Mathematics curriculum focuses on student understanding with Problem-Based Learning and Visual Learning; and provides formative and summative assessments that allow instruction to be specifically tailored for each girl from support to enrichment. The enVision Mathematics program is based on the national academic standards in mathematics endorsed by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). These measures include both content and mathematical practices that outline the areas in which each girl should be able to show proficiency by the end of her current grade level.

ENVISION® MATHEMATICS

BIKING PROGRAM

COMMUNITY BUILDING

PRIMARY SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

While the days are mostly spent at Lyman Campus for K-Grade 2 and at Butler Campus for Grades 3-5, days are planned throughout the year for each group to spend time at both campuses. Kindergarten-Second Grade students head to the Butler Campus at least once each month for LAB (Learning at Butler) Days to enjoy interdisciplinary activities that tie into classroom work. They are challenged to tackle problems and create solutions while engaging in animal tracking, understanding the physics of why snowshoes work, testing water quality during pond study all while spending time with their Butler Buddies engaging in nature, art or reading. Buddies get to spend even more time together when Third-Fifth Grade students make periodic visits to the Lyman Campus for all-school assemblies and celebrations and to work in the Collaboratory, Laurel’s makerspace. While our Primary School takes shape across two campuses, our community thrives as both younger and older girls spend purposeful time together.

25

Learning to ride a bike is a cornerstone of the Kindergarten-Second Grade physical education curriculum. Biking is a great way to build skills, confidence, and resilience. During P.E. class, students work on biking skills and every Kindergarten-Second Grader can ride a 2-wheeler before leaving the Lyman Campus! When girls arrive at the Butler Campus in Third Grade, they are poised to take their bike, from our school-provided Bike Fleet, and use it as her main mode of transportation to get around the 150-acre campus. In addition to riding the bikes to further develop gross motor skills and learn proper biking traffic signals, Third-Fifth Graders learn bicycle maintenance and the engineering principles behind how bikes work.

26

Grades 6 - 8

They create and conduct experiments in science, they build and draw models to visualize concepts in math, they memorize and act out scenes from Shakespearean plays, and they investigate and debate constitutional issues. Middle School girls at Laurel learn by doing, love choice and rise to creative challenges.

You only need a moment in the North Wing of our Lyman Campus building to sense the bustling energy of scientists, artists, engineers, writers and thinkers diving deep into their learning. The Middle School experience at Laurel is based on the work of our Center for Research on Girls on how girls learn best. Experiential learning balances timehonored traditions, and strategies are tailored to each girl as she finds and develops her voice. Girls work on leadership skills as they collaborate with teachers and classmates to take ownership of their learning.

MIDDLE SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

IMMERSION WEEKS

29

Immersion Weeks are entirely experiential, interdisciplinary and community-based and allow girls to put the skills they learn in each of their classes to the test. The Greek Olympics culminates the Sixth Graders’ learning about the Classics and Classical Studies and during Space Week, they experiment with engineering their own rockets. During Tinkering Week, Seventh Graders redesign animatronics, tinker with language to change meaning and even experiment with ingredients to create new recipes. During Nation Creation, Eighth Graders explore the challenges faced by settlers in North America. Girls design a government, write a Bill of Rights, create an economy, and later in the year, operate as nation groups in a simulated United Nations.

ACADEMIC COMPETITIONS

Seventh and Eighth Graders may train to compete in district, regional and state Power of the Pen competitions. The Middle School Power of the Pen team is consistently awarded top honors at the State level. Students enrolled in the Robotics or Speech and Debate electives compete in local, regional and state competitions. The Robotics team has competed at the State competition almost every year since its inception. Middle School mathematicians have the opportunity to participate in several math competitions each year including the Ohio Math League competition and the Greater Cleveland Council of Teachers of Mathematics competition.

MIDDLE SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

I-PROJECT

30

Electives for Sixth-Eighth Graders introduce girls to new academic experiences. Electives span a wide array of choices and have included options such as First LEGO League Robotics, Middle School Newspaper, American Sign Language, Yoga, Money Matters, Junior Model UN and Speech and Debate.

ELECTIVE PROGRAM

Laurel’s enthusiasm for programming and robotics is woven throughout a girl’s Middle School experience. Sixth Graders use remotely operated robots in Battlebots competitions, some choosing to compete locally in a Battlebot Throwdown. The Computer Science course in Seventh and Eighth Grades teaches students coding, problem-solving and computational thinking.

MIDDLE SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

The Independent Project (I-Project) is a research-based passion project in which Eighth Graders probe areas of interest and refine their research realms by interviewing an expert in a field of interest, defining a question to answer, and outlining a plan of action. In choosing how their research and efforts will help to change the world, students become experts in a new area of competence. Students keep a record of their learning through assigned journal prompts but otherwise develop individualized milestones for this half-year project. As the project culminates, students write about and present to classmates about what they have accomplished!

PROGRAMMING & ROBOTICS

LEADERSHIP

Elected and organic leadership opportunities abound for Laurel Middle Schoolers. The Middle School Student Government runs Assembly each month, infusing the community building time with student-led games and speakers girls are inspired to invite to campus. Student leaders enlist the support of classmates for service projects designed to build community, on campus and around Cleveland. Green and White spirit team captains help to plan and run competitions throughout the school year, culminating in Green and White Day in June. Representatives from Seventh and Eighth Grade represent Laurel in a yearlong Cleveland Council of Independent School (CCIS) Leadership program.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

Service opportunities begin on campus and extend into greater Cleveland. An annual Middle School Clothing Swap, for instance, with proceeds benefiting local women’s support organizations, is an opportunity for girls to design, promote, and see through a project that allows them to use their abilities and understanding, as tweens and teens, to positively impact others.

MIDDLE SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

32

In Laurel’s Upper School, girls come into their intellectual power and move towards solidifying their passions and goals.

Upper School

Grades 9 - 12

We know that girls learn best when their learning experiences are experiential, interdisciplinary and community-based and when their course work allows them to pursue interests and complete meaningful work. Whether a girl has a passion for STEM Research, thrives on lively discussions of the themes in British literature or loves the challenge of multivariable calculus, our Upper School course progression is designed to allow a girl to pursue an individualized path tailored to her intellectual passions.

Laurel faculty and advisors are guides and mentors as girls find their voices and build their leadership skills, resilience and compassion all while navigating the rigors of a demanding curriculum.

CAPSTONE SCHOLARS EXPERIENCE

35

Laurel’s Capstone Scholars Program provides motivated students with opportunities to tackle real-world challenges and to create real-world solutions. Capstone cultivates purpose, innovation and leadership by providing Scholars with the time and resources they need to engage in active learning through inquiry, research and networking. Topics span the disciplines, including civic engagement, entrepreneurship, global studies and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics). During a two-year process, Capstone Scholars explore subjects through guided research, intellectual discourse, relevant internships and purposeful off-campus activities. Using expert guidance from teachers, local and national mentors, each Scholar pursues a Research Focus based on her individual interests.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Entrepreneurship means fostering in girls a spirit of possibility coupled with business savvy. Through our Entrepreneurial Program and our partnership with the Veale Youth Entrepreneurship Forum, Laurel girls have the opportunity to develop and present original business ideas or use social entrepreneurship to solve problems in the community. Laurel girls have seen their ideas come to fruition through winning school-sponsored and local competitions. Whether pitching a new business idea to C-level executives from the Cleveland Cavaliers; joining the Student Investment Committee, which manages a $15,000 investment fund; or running One Coffee Circle, Laurel’s student-run coffee roasting business; Laurel girls are problem solvers—often collaborating to bring ambitious, realworld businesses to life.

U PP ER SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

Laurel School is a founding member of the Online School for Girls, now known as One Schoolhouse. One Schoolhouse is a consortium of over 250 national and international schools that share a commitment to online education as a means to expand programs and offerings for students and faculty alike. The school’s guiding principles are: connection, collaboration, creativity and application.

ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE SEMESTER

Imagine spending a semester alongside passionate changemakers, learning from experts in the field, and contributing to meaningful positive change in the greater Cleveland area and beyond. The Environmental Justice Semester at Laurel is a 13-week immersive semester open to Tenth and Eleventh Grade girls—both current Laurel students and girls from area high schools—on the 150-acre Laurel School Butler Campus in Russell Township, Ohio. Butler offers a natural space with terrestrial, aquatic and agricultural ecosystems for students to devise solutions for the ecological and social challenges facing urban Cleveland.

FACING HISTORY AND OURSELVES

Facing History and Ourselves (FHAO) is an international organization whose mission is to engage students in an examination of identity and history in order to promote the development of a more humane and informed citizenry. In 2014, Laurel joined the Facing History Innovative Schools Network which now includes over 140 schools. With its tagline “People Make Choices; Choices Make History,” FHAO emphasizes vocabulary that encourages personal responsibility and empathy, qualities that align with Laurel’s mission and values. Each FHAO unit begins with an understanding of identity: Who am I and how will who I am affect the actions I take or choose not to take?

U PP ER SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS

Implicit in our mission statement is the requirement that each student actively engages with the community outside of Laurel by completing a minimum of 50 hours of service before her Senior year as a requirement for graduation; however, most girls exceed the 50 hours. Our hope is that each girl will leave Laurel with a better understanding of what it means to be involved in one’s community and a strong desire to better the world through a continued commitment to using one’s time and talent on behalf of others.

38

Building confidence is the mainstay of a Laurel education. Our alumnae go on to stand out at highly-selective colleges, run businesses and better the world, in part because of the leader-ship opportunities they were afforded during their time at Laurel. Whether elected to a position of leadership in Student Government, establishing a club or school organization, managing a stage production or shepherding -her basketball team to victory, there are endless ways for a Laurel girl to lead in the school community and to find her voice.
