ACCREDITATION STATEMENT Accredited by the Virginia Association of Independent Schools and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement, Norfolk Collegiate admits qualiﬁed students without regard to race, color, ethnic background, national origin or religion. DISCLAIMER STATEMENT The philanthropy report recognizes gifts made to the school between July 1, 2015, and June 30, 2016. Every effort has been made to compile as accurate a report of donors as possible. If you discover an error or omission, please accept our apologies and bring it to our attention.

It was a record-breaking year! Dear Norfolk Collegiate, The 2015-16 school year was a seminal one for our community as we saw the completion of several important milestones that set our school apart from others. In September, we opened our new outdoor athletic complex. Our two, side-by-side, lighted turf fields are the only such complex in Hampton Roads. While our student-athletes have an incredible facility for competition, the entire community also benefits from the expanded space. Having such a facility has made our school the premier destination for community clubs and leagues looking for a first-class practice and competition location. This also was the first year of our participation in the College Board’s AP Capstone™ Program. We were the only independent school in the state to be part of this prestigious program, which expands our ability to challenge our students to perform not only at the highest academic level, but also in progressive, innovative ways. In May, the lower school campus opened our Outdoor Learning Lab, which included chickens, whose eggs will benefit those less fortunate through our partnership with the FoodBank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore, and farm-to-table gardens tended by our students. As a result, each student will learn the value of sustainable gardens and give back to the larger community. Collegiate also hosted a very successful 10-year accreditation visit from the Virginia Association of Independent Schools. By blending that re-accreditation process with an ambitious strategic planning process, we were able to come together as a community to craft a vision for the future. We solicited input from alumni, students, parents and faculty to develop a shared vision that capitalizes on our strengths and commits us to stewarding our school for future generations. We will introduce the strategic plan in the near future, and we know it will excite everyone. These are just the beginning of a long list of accomplishments that we are excited to share with you as we look back on 2015-16. We all know the old adage that “a picture is worth a thousand words,” so we are pleased to offer this magazine and all of its wonderful images that demonstrate Collegiate’s past year. This is an exciting time to be part of our school, and we all know there are even more exciting programs, projects and opportunities ahead. Sincerely,

Scott G. Kennedy Headmaster

Poised for the future Dear Norfolk Collegiate Community, It has been another remarkable year as we embarked on several momentous adventures. I am honored to have served as your board chairman for the second year, but moreover to share your vested interest in Collegiate’s success as a parent of two students. Thanks to our support as parents and through the Norfolk Collegiate Annual Fund, students kicked off the 2015-16 school year with abundant opportunities to grow, learn and excel! From providing outstanding academic and athletic programs to scholarships, tools for our teachers and a rich community environment, Collegiate ensures our students are receiving a great education and an even greater experience. It is incredible to think that as we began last year, we were anticipating the opening of our new turf fields and lights. Since then, the fields have transformed the athletic and physical education programs at Collegiate. They are utilized by 15 Collegiate teams, as well as the middle and upper school physical education classes and lower school students, who utilize them for camps, clinics and practices. The two fields are bringing the Hampton Roads community together for events, tournaments and competitions. They are a truly visible symbol of our community’s unwavering commitment to the health and wellness for all ages! Thank you to all of you who have committed to this project to ensure the fields will be maintained for future generations. Yet we didn’t stop there. More than flowers have bloomed since the Outdoor Learning Lab’s opening on May 7, 2016. From learning about sustainable agriculture to investigating creepy crawlers, students are expanding their knowledge about the world around them, as well as becoming young philanthropists by donating the fruits (and veggies) of their labor to the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore. The lab has elevated the way we teach at the lower school, while creating unforgettable memories for our youngest students. With 130 veggie plots, five hens, a flower bed and a greenhouse, the Outdoor Learning Lab hosted two new summer camps, and several learning labs were launched before the 2015-16 school year ended! We finished the year with the beginnings of MakerLabs at each campus due to the generosity of Fund-an-Item donors during our “Night at the Races” Annual Auction in May. These spaces will serve as community hubs for innovation for our K-12 learners. With the newly dedicated spaces and their new technology, machinery and furniture, our students will be able to share resources and knowledge with each other, collaborate on projects and learn by doing. This is an exciting time at Norfolk Collegiate. We continue to grow and evolve, and as Scott Kennedy shared in his welcome, we are well poised for the future. Regards,

W. Taylor Franklin ’00 Board of Director Chair

ACADEMICS

It’s the little things, such as seeing animals in person at the zoo and making those connections, that lead to big results for our acorns.

Lower

school students were challenged to expand their vocabularies, learn the importance of buying and selling goods and testing their skills in competition, throughout the year. Here is a look at the lower school’s academic highlights:

FORENSICS COMPETITION From poetry to storytelling, our Oaks are on their way to becoming great writers thanks to the lower school’s Forensics Club. In April, 16 fourth- and ﬁfth-grade students participated in a forensics competition at Cape Henry Collegiate, with four bringing home honors for their work. They included: • Malachi Love ’23, third place for boys’ poetry • Nolan Russell ’23, ﬁrst place for boys’ storytelling • Sarah Bartlett ’22, third place for girls’ poetry • Blaike Hill ’22, second place for boys’ prose

CONTINENTAL MATH LEAGUE COMPETITION Our Oaks made history by not only taking home national honors in the 2015-16 Continental Mathematics League Competition, but also as the only national winner from Virginia to achieve perfect results. This victory marked the fourth year in a row that our ﬁfth-grade students swept the competition by taking home ﬁrst-place honors. The national math competition merges math concepts with problem solving and reasoning skills by giving students 30 minutes to complete challenging questions while competing against hundreds of students from schools nationwide. Collegiate also had several individual, national winners who received perfect scores in their respective grade levels. They included: • Camille Porter ’24 • Evan Skroch ’24 • Brennan Chatman ’23 • Ellie Frenck ’23 • Jillian Reed ’23 • Nolan Russell ’23 • Mason Thibodeau ’23 • Blair White ’23

Gardens, hens & a greenhouse Outdoor Learning Lab creates hands-on, philanthropic opportunities for students It started with a passion for learning and blossomed into a newly created, sustainable outdoor classroom. Thanks to the efforts of lower school science teacher Melissa Silverman, the generosity of the Franklin family and the hard work of the students and volunteers, our Oaks were able to bring new life to the courtyard in the form of a new classroom learning environment. Named the Outdoor Learning Lab, the classroom consists of four 4’x 8’ raised vegetable beds, one 12’x 18’ ﬂower bed, a year-round, fully functioning greenhouse and a 12’x 4’ cedar chicken coop, known as The Oak Roost, which is home to ﬁve Buff Orpington hens. 10

MAY: Basil, oregano and thyme were just a few of the herbs that students planted in the greenhouse.

APRIL: Rose bushes and cement pads were removed to make room for the gardens, ﬂower beds, greenhouse and hens.

OUTDOOR LEARNING LAB STAGES This experiential learning lab opened on May 12 and was made possible through the generous support of parents Taylor ’00 and Emily Franklin and grandparents Wendell and Martha Franklin. Even before its opening, the space became an area that taught our students about sustainable agriculture, growth life cycles, farming, food production, botany and creepy crawlers. This hands-on classroom allows our students to dig into Mother Earth, expand their curiosity about the world around them and learn ways in which they can become better stewards for our planet.

the classroom. The students are taking ownership of what they are doing out here. They are responsible for their plot and their vegetables; they are taking care of it. They are watching it grow. They are observing it and taking measurements. They are using that information and applying it to what they’ve learned in the classroom.”

The student-driven classroom came to life through the efforts of Silverman and our students, who took the reins and planned and implemented the classroom.

“This is a way of engaging individuals at a younger age, teaching them about all the ways they can give back,” said Ruth Jones Nichols, Foodbank CEO. “They’ll help support the organization’s Foods to Encourage initiative, which focuses on getting more nutritious food out to individuals that are experiencing food insecurity.”

“There’s a movement in learning to do more STEM projects (science, technology, engineering and math),” said Silverman. “This will allow students to get their hands on things that we are learning in WWW.NORFOLKCOLLEGIATE.ORG

With the vegetables and eggs produced, the students have chosen to donate a portion of the harvest and the eggs to the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore.

Senior class hits new heights Jefferson Challenge sees 100 percent participaton The Class of 2016 displayed the true spirit of the Jefferson Challenge by reaching 100 percent participation in the Annual Fund. Established in 2002 with help from philanthropist A. Kenneth Scribner Jr., the challenge was designed to promote a spirit of philanthropy among the senior class and encourage our students to begin their legacy of giving back to Collegiate. Traditionally, the program has consisted of fundraisers and seminars, but the Class of 2016 took it one step further. Not only did they encourage the upper school body to reach $1,000 in giving, but they also introduced incentives that included our faculty and staff when speciﬁc benchmarks were reached. “We picked faculty members who would be up for the challenge,” said Victor Layne, senior class president. “Additionally, we thought it would be most entertaining if faculty members were given challenges outside of their comfort zone. But more importantly, it showed the outside community that we were capable of making a difference despite our youth.” 16

The Jefferson Challenge began in 2002 after Ken Scribner, a philanthropist, donated 1,001 $2 bills to Norfolk Collegiate in honor of the Class of 2002. It received its name because Thomas Jefferson, who was known for his passion for education, photo appears on the bill.

“Developing habits of philanthropy are valuable life lessons,” said Headmaster Scott Kennedy, who was impressed by our students’ philanthropic goals. “Teaching students the importance of giving back, regardless of the cause, is part of our purpose as a school and makes us a better community.” Upper School Dean of Students Nicole Weyer agreed. “By having creative fundraising goals that are sure to inspire many people to contribute, it puts a playful and inspiring face on supporting Norfolk Collegiate,” she said. By the time graduation rolled around, the senior class had raised more than $3,300 for the school. Part of that money was designated for the Take-aSeat campaign, through which the class purchased a chair in the Hackney Theater to leave a lasting legacy at the school.

SENIOR PROJECTS OF

NORFOLK COLLEGIATE E

ach year, our seniors are challenged to turn their passions into their senior projects. Each student takes a unique approach—some work toward personal growth while others take on charitable pursuits. These projects take our students beyond the classroom to a creative space of their own imagining. Below are snippets from life of a senior project—and what motivates our students.

JAMES COOPER “Once On This Island” Hurrah Players Choreographer

SHAHRA MADISON & CHAD BULLOCK Diversity Conference

JOI HARPER Writing an Original Music Composition

“My senior project is a familial continuation. My mother and father did the same show, ‘Once On This Island,’ while they were in high school. It was the ﬁrst show she got to choreograph the whole show. My father played the same role that I chose to play, Agwé, the God of Water. So the show itself has a very personal meaning to me. I was so happy that I could have that experience of being in charge and having that pre-professional experience of directing and choreographing a show and taking myself outside of my group of peers and really being able to see the show in a whole new light.”

“I felt if I didn’t do this project, no one else was going to do it,” Shahra said. “I thought it would be good to let people know what is going on in society. I like how this conference is student-led and how it provides a judgment-free zone. Everyone who attends the conference, attends for the same reason, and you feel comfortable there.”

“For college I have to compose in order to get into the music composition program. So this project was like practice for the real thing. I’ve been writing for a long time, so I would like to do a masterpiece of my works for my senior project. I started writing songs when I was very little, and I’ve been writing formal pieces for maybe two years. Most of my help has come from Mrs. Wallace. Since she is the music theory teacher, she helps me with the music theory aspect, but I also took a course by myself to perfect my craft. She just helps me edit and go through to see what’s wrong and highlight what’s right.”

“With this project, one thing I learned was time management. You can’t really procrastinate when you’re trying to get things done. I’m hoping that this conference will open my eyes to more and allow me to master the skills I need,” Chad said. JOI HARPER

The Collegiate: 2015-16 Year in Review

GIN YUKUN 100 Days of Bodybuilding “Bodybuilding is two steps. The ﬁrst is to lose weight, and the second is to tone up,” said Gin. “I don’t feel well when I have a lot of fat on my body.

BAILEY HOLMES-SPENCER & CATHERINE KIM Journalism Conference “We’re passionate about journalism,” said Bailey. “(Catherine) and I hope to purse journalism in college, so this was a great project for us.” “We learned a lot isn’t in our control, like how many people will attend and if we can get the speaker we want to come to the conference,” Catherine said. “It was up to us to control the things that were within our control to www.NorfolkCollegiate.org create the best conference.”

VICTOR LAYNE, NICOLA BORRELL & EMMA SEGALOFF Operation Smile Rock-a-Thon “For the past two years, I’ve been working on the rock-a-thon for Operation Smile, and I ﬁgured why not expand it this year and take it to the next level with two other people,” Victor said. “We learned great organizational skills and how to work with people,” Emma said, “how to organize an event, create an event and how to make everything possible.”

CARTER KENNEDY & ANN BURNS MORRISON Academically adopted students at P. B. Young Sr. Elementary School & Young Terrace Community Center “The students within this area often live in environments that are not conducive to the advancement of their learning,” Ann Burns said. “We wanted to change that.” “I would love it if Collegiate would partner with Young Terrace as a Big Brother, Big Sister program,” Carter said.

HAMOUDI MUSSELMANI Alzheimer’s Awareness

KELSEY ALCARAZ Fisher House

“Out of the neurological disorders that I’ve known, Alzheimer’s has been a big one that’s run through my family,” Hamoudi said. “My great-aunt passed from it and my grandfather is going through the early stages. It has signiﬁcantly impacted my family. I want to focus more on how the disease itself emotionally, physically and socially affects its patients.”

“The Fisher House is like the Ronald McDonald House, but for veterans. If a veteran is hurt and his family needs to get there right away, the Fisher House steps in,” Kelsey said. “It allows them to feel a level of comfort while going through a hard time. I’ve seen the effects of what happens while they’re deployed overseas, and I wanted to do something to give back.” 9

ACADEMICS Throughout the year, Norfolk Collegiate hosted several speakers, including current parents, alumni and professionals in their ﬁelds to allow our students increased opportunities to interact with experts. Here are some highlights of the speakers who took time to talk with our students this year.

JASON REDMAN Former Navy SEAL and author Jason Redman spoke to middle school students about encouragement, leadership, perseverance and teamwork as he discussed in his novel, “The Trident,” and the principles that make elite performers. He spoke of six philosophies to live by: overcome, live greatly, love deeply, stay humble, lead always and have no regrets.

DAMION GRANT Former college basketball star Damion Grant spoke to upper school students about resilience and life after basketball. Grant played at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill when they won the 2005 NCAA Tournament Championship; however, an injury ended his career early. “He made me realize that it’s important to know that things don’t always go as planned, and you have to be ready to adjust,” said Kyonze’ Chavis ’16.

DR. ADAM NAYLOR It’s no secret that one has to make mistakes to become better when it comes to a sport. Yet for some, learning to understand and accept that can be challenging. Dr. Adam Naylor, sport psychology coach, addressed this with students and parents when he spoke in the fall. “Errors are only bad when you think too much about it,” he said. “A mistake or a good opponent is positive if we think about it that way.”

GLENN HALL In February, Collegiate hosted Freedom from Chemical Dependency (FCD) Educational Program and Workshops with prevention specialist Glenn Hall. Hall created a safe space for eighthgrade and upper school students to learn and talk about the effects of drug and alcohol use. “Mr. G leaves a mark on everyone he encounters and gives us the information we need in a creative and energetic way to make good choices,” said Reid Wilkinson ’16.

ALLAN WOLF Allan Wolf presented Poetry-Palooza Extravaganza Too Point Ohhh! to lower school students on April 1. An author, poet, performer and educator, Wolf’s mission was to take poetry to the people, and his expressive spirit was a hit with our lower school students.

“Turf Fields & Lights: Installation Timelapse” was our most viewed video this year!

THE ARTS

From learning about friendship and tolerance in “Swamped!” to solving the mystery in “The Uninvited” to hearing Shakespeare reinvented, the Hackney Theater featured offerings for all ages.

The

lights in the Hackney Theater burned brightly throughout the year as our students, alumni and guest speakers took to the stage. The year kicked off with the Betty M. & William B. Jones Humanities Speaker Series and a partnership with the Virginia Stage Company. From there, the stage was home to many exciting performances. Here are some highlights:

IN THE GALLERY: • Norfolk Collegiate began its second year of the Betty M. & William B. Jones Humanities Speaker Series. This year’s theme, “Politics, Stage & Silver Screen: 400 Years Since Shakespeare,” was a trio of presentations and an art exhibition inspired by the 400th anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare. • The ﬁrst presentation, “Sir Walter Ralegh and Shakespeare’s Cultural and Political Milieu,” THE COLLEGIATE: YEAR IN REVIEW & PHILANTHROPY REPORT

•

by Dr. Nicholas Popper, investigated how and why Ralegh embraced the roles of soldier, poet, pirate, sailor, courtier, parliamentarian, historian and penitent. The series continued with a special presentation by alumnus David Krohn ’02 on Valentine’s Day, “If Music be the Food of Love, Play on–Songs & Arias Inspired by The Great Bard.” The series concluded with Professor Andrew Quicke, who presented “Shakespeare on the Silver Screen,” in which he discussed some of the memorable moments from Shakespeare in ﬁlm.

TURF, LIGHTS AND FIELD EXHIBIT Shortly after the grand opening of our turf ﬁelds on Sept. 25, introductory photography students began a project titled “Photography & Photoshop I.” Learning to control the focus, aperture settings and shutter speeds on digital cameras, students grew to understand the technical elements of capturing an image to highlight elements of sports and the new athletic complex. Our students’ photography was on display in the exhibit “Turf, Lights and Fields,” a collection of images by Collegiate’s freshmen, sophomores and juniors at the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame and Museum from Jan. 17-March 27. “My photography was inspired through my love of sports,” said Ashby Larkin ’18. “It prompted me to want to show different aspects of sports, not just the athletics being played, but the objects in sports.” ON THE STAGE Throughout the year, students performed in several school plays held in the Hackney Theater and the lower school auditorium. The productions included: • “The Uninvited” • “Joust! A Mighty Medieval Musical” • “Swamped!” • “Hats!” • “Once Upon a Wolf” • “High School Musical” • Middle and upper school band, strings and chorus concerts WWW.NORFOLKCOLLEGIATE.ORG

Our fourth- and ﬁfth-grade students present “Joust! A Mighty Medieval Musical.”

POETRY OUT LOUD COMPETITION Twelve upper school students participated in Collegiate’s inaugural Poetry Out Loud contest on Dec. 3 in the Hackney Theater. The competition is part of a national oratory contest that encourages high school students to learn about poetry through memorization and recitation. Clare Harbin ’19 earned ﬁrst place with her performance of “She Walks in Beauty” by Lord Byron to advance to the regional competition at the Crispus Attucks Cultural Center. “I love reading and reciting poems,” said Clare. “When Mr. Benedict told me about this, I knew I wanted to try it out and that it would be fun. And it was fun.” PUBLIC RECOGNITION James Cooper ’16 sang his way across the state. With more than 1,700 students auditioning for All-State Chorus, James was selected as a Bass II top delegate with high honors and earned ﬁrst place at the choral competition in February. James represented Norfolk Collegiate in the All-State Chorus of Virginia in April. It was his second year participating in All-State Chorus, a rare accomplishment for musicians. OFF CAMPUS Many of our students graced the stage outside of school, including: • Lila Spurgeon ’19 in “The Wizard of Oz” • Elizabeth Hughes ’20 in “The Diary of Anne Frank” • James Cooper ’16 in “The Little Mermaid” • Ellie Walden ’22 in “The Tempest” 25

The ARTS ABOVE: Quincy Stewart ’28 gives the thumbs-up during the kindergarten and ﬁrst-grade musical, “Hats.” RIGHT: Kindergarten and ﬁrst-grade students teach their audience that it’s not the hat, but what’s underneath that’s special in the musical “Hats.”

Upper school students produced Disney’s “High School Musical” in the Hackney Theater this spring. The three-day event saw near sold-out crowds for all three performances.

ATHLETICS

Our student-athletes dominate not only the classrooms, but also the courts, ﬁelds and lanes and have several titles to prove it.

This

school year, our student-athletes earned three TCIS championship titles, placed 31 athletes on TCIS All-Conference teams, 17 on all-state teams, one individual state champion and 13 percent of our senior class in playing collegiate-level athletics. Here is a look back at some of the highlights from our student-athletes this year:

THE COLLEGIATE: YEAR IN REVIEW & PHILANTHROPY REPORT

TCIS SAILING CHAMPS Our co-ed varsity sailing team performed at an all-time high and was named first team for multiple conferences and categories, including TCIS and VISAA. “This season has been the best season that this generation of sailors has ever seen,” said Darden Purrington ’16. “There have been tremendous improvements stemming from several years of hard work together, which culminated with a first in the TCIS Fleet Racing Championship, first in VISAA Team Racing State Championship, third in MASSA Team Racing Regional Championship and fourth place in the Atlantic Coast Championship.” TCIS BASKETBALL CHAMPS The winter season was one to remember as our boys varsity basketball team earned Collegiate’s first TCIS Championship in more than 10 years. Bash Townes ’16 was named TCIS Tournament MVP. The trio of Bash, Adam Grant ’16 and Kyonze’ Chavis ’16 took home Collegiate’s Winter Athletic Awards Co-MVP title while Jimmy Hurley ’16 received the OAK Award. “It was an enjoyable season,” said Coach Jim Markey. “I said it at the beginning of the season, the camaraderie inside the locker room was a real strength for the team.” TCIS SOCCER CHAMPS After an undefeated season, our Oaks won the TCIS regular-season title, making it their second state title in three seasons. Their success propelled them to compete in the VISAA state competition where they fell short to St. Catherine’s School. “We won the TCIS regular season, won the TCIS Tournament and finished with a record of 17-1-1,” said Coach Jon Hall. “We had three players earn All-State titles and five players were recognized as All-TCIS, including Cameron Brown ’17, Sarah Smallets ’17, Sarah L. Smith ’18, Molly Beegle ’19 and Ashby Larkin ’18. The best part of the season is how the girls got along and really cared about each other. I think that’s why they were so successful this season.” TCIS SOCCER COACH OF THE YEAR Girls varsity soccer coach and Athletic Director Jon Hall was named TCIS soccer coach of the year.

WINTER SPORTS • Bash Townes ’16 became Collegiate’s first boys varsity basketball player to score more than 2,000 points. • All-Conference Awards were given to Adam Grant ’16, Kyonze’ (K.) Chavis ’16 and Bash. • Shahra Madison ’16 was named to the all-conference girls basketball team. • Chris Beck ’16 became a state champion and was named best wrestler in a heavyweight division and wrestler of the year for TCIS.

SPRING SPORTS • Our girls lacrosse, boys tennis and girls soccer teams all qualified for states in their respective tournaments. • Our boys varsity tennis team placed third in the TCIS tournament, and Alex Duvall ’17 won his flight. The team went on to compete in the VISAA state tournament, where they won the quarterfinals and were later named VISAA State Tennis Tournament runners-up. • Cameron Brown ’17 and Sarah L. Smith ’18 were named first team all-tidewater and first team all-VISAA for girls soccer. Sarah was crowned TCIS Tournament MVP, while Cameron was named Defensive MVP and Tidewater Conference Player of the Year. • During the Crew Independent School Championship on the Lafayette River, our mixed varsity four placed first and our varsity boys four, lightweight four and girls varsity four team placed second. • Collegiate’s sailing club earned the championship title at the National Invitational Team Racing Tournament in Minnesota.

ATHLETICS

Athletic complex a win for athletes, Collegiate

The boys varsity lacrosse team plays a game under the lights during the spring 2015 season.

Our

inaugural year with our new turf fields saw great successes from our studentathletes and excitement from the Hampton Roads community, as several area teams utilized the facilities for scrimmages and tournaments. From field hockey and lacrosse to soccer and kickball, our athletic complex saw a lot of action, including hosting the TCIS lacrosse final, public school games and multiple club events. Here is a look at how our athletic complex has affected our student-athletes and coaches this year:

QUALITY COMPLEX DRAWS MORE STUDENTS AND SCHOOL SPIRIT “The new turf ﬁelds and lights at Collegiate provided the perfect environment for studentathletes to play and for fans to cheer,” said Sarah Smallets ’17, a member of the varsity girls soccer team. “The quality of the ﬁelds not only motivated us as players to work hard, but also the student section has grown, emphasizing that it is an equally important component of the game.”

”

STORMY WEATHER AND WE CAN STILL PLAY TOGETHER “This year, we were the first team to play on the turf fields during the opening ceremony,” said Jordan Dobrinsky ’17, who plays field hockey and lacrosse. “It was cool to get a chance to make history. I’ll always remember being the first team to play on the turf fields even though it was storming. That’s the beauty of the new fields; you can play in any weather. Our fields are so amazing that other schools schedule games to play here.”

The new turf gave us the ultimate home-team advantage. We were undefeated this season because the ﬁelds gave us the mentality of, ‘This is our home, and we’re not going down without a ﬁght’ for each game.’ That was our biggest motivation.

”

Alexis McGurn ’16, Soccer Goalie OLD VS. NEW WITH COACH MERRYMAN ’10 “I remember playing on the old fields, and we literally had some spots filled with sand,” said Bobby Merryman ’10, assistant coach of the boys varsity lacrosse team. “I recall winning the TCIS championship for soccer during my senior year, and we were set to host the state playoff game, but our fields were too small for the state regulation, so we had to play at Old Dominion University. The new turf fields are very nice and a huge benefit to the school. There is less maintenance involved and you don’t have to worry about canceling games due to weather. The playing surface is always the same. Another bonus is the playing lines on the fields. They are lined for soccer (white), field hockey (blue) and boys (black)/girls (red) lacrosse, which gives the fields four different sets of lines. I say this because it gives the athletes special awareness when they are on the fields. You can use the lines as a reference point, which I have found to be very helpful for our athletes.”

A SOURCE OF PRIDE FOR OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES “The new fields brought us together as a school and as a community,” said Blair Hurley ’16, who played field hockey and lacrosse. “During practice we were able play side-by-side and cheer on other teams. The fields helped us to improve our skills and to effectively work as a team because it was a consistent surface. We were all so excited to have played on our new beautiful fields. I think it made us try harder and practice harder. We were very proud to have played on them.”

THE END OF AN ERA:

Passionate, selfless and committed are three words that best describe Collegiate’s head varsity boys basketball Coach Jim Markey. He led our Oaks to the 2016 Tidewater Conference of Independent School (TCIS) championship and afterwards announced he was stepping down from his 20-year tenure. Under his leadership, Collegiate earned 325 wins, three TCIS championship titles and averaged 20 wins per season for the past 16 years. THE EARLY YEARS Markey’s Collegiate journey began in 1996 as the junior varsity basketball coach. He went on to assist with our middle school basketball team and coach our varsity players. While his mark on Collegiate has been tremendous, he credits his success to his team-building concept, establishing co-curricular learning and molding boys into men.

“

By the time I got to Collegiate, I had only played basketball for a couple of years. I remember a lot of early morning workouts and open gyms on the weekends that helped build conﬁdence. Thank you, Coach Key, for encouraging me to be as great on the court as I was off of it. Thank you for believing in my dream and helping me take the proper steps for my future. Thank you for your time. You will truly be missed.

In my own words [it means] sound body, sound mind.” He also believes coaching basketball is part of the educational process and not an extra-curricular activity.

“60 percent of the time we spend competing with ourselves, 30 percent of the time we spend learning the skills of this game and 10 percent of the time we spend competing against the opponent,” Markey said. “The opponent is thought of as a partner, someone who can bring out the best in us, which is why I believe wins and losses are an imposter. The opponent is not the enemy; it’s our partner in the process, and you want some good partners to bring the best out of you.”

“While [basketball] is certainly fun, it’s not all fun and games. It’s about the education,” Markey said. “If you want to know what I’m most proud Markey concluded his tenure at of, it’s the amount of learning Collegiate helping to groom Bash that has gone on in the past 20 Townes ’16, Adam Grant ’16 and years.

BEYOND THE CLASSROOM

Faculty and staff dedicated a weekend in January to improving their knowledge of Google applications in the classroom at the Google+ iOS Summit. The event drew more than 115 educators from across Virginia.

Outside

of the classroom, it was another exciting year for Collegiate students, parents, faculty and staff. The year kicked off with educational consultant Pat Bassett working with the community in preparation for the school’s 10-year accreditation visit. In addition, the school hosted a two-day summit featuring educational experts from Google. Here is a look back at some highlights beyond the classroom:

PAT BASSETT VISIT On Monday, Nov. 9, 2015, educational consultant Pat Bassett presented “Schools of the Future–Big Shifts” to more than 150 educators and parents from Hampton Roads. His presentation, which was hosted by Norfolk Collegiate, delved into his perspectives on major educational trends and how schools should ready themselves to take advantage of them in the future. Bassett’s discussion included shifting the educational paradigm from: • Knowing to doing; • Teacher-centered to student-centered; • Individual to team;

•

Consumption of information to construction of meaning; • Single sourcing to crowd sourcing; • Showing high-value demonstrations versus high-stakes testing. Bassett, who has more than 45 years of experience in private education, also spent several days at Collegiate helping to guide the administration through the school’s strategic planning process. While at Collegiate, Bassett met with focus groups comprised of parents, alumni, faculty, staff and students, toured our facilities and visited classes in all three divisions. He also worked with the administration and reviewed the results of the surveys that our constituencies completed before his visit. That information was analyzed and sent back to our community to home in on the top initiatives shaping the ﬁnal version of the strategic plan (please see page 90). GOOGLE SUMMIT The Google+ iOS Summit for Educators, featuring Google Apps for Education, brought more than 115 educators from Virginia to Norfolk Collegiate from Jan. 23-24, 2016. The two-day summit had

participants focus on integrating Google applications to promote student learning within K-12 and higher education institutions by allowing participants to learn how to brainstorm ideas and gather knowledge using iPads® with Google applications. The summit featured Google-certified teachers and innovators, Apple-distinguished educators and Google employees. Participants learned a host of innovative tools across disciplines and grade levels, including Google Tour Builder, Google My Maps and Google Cardboard, a virtual reality tool. “EdTech Team’s Google Summits are deliberately designed to provide participants with real takeaways that can be implemented immediately in their schools and classrooms,” said Charlene Loope, director of instructional technology and communication arts. “From using Google Apps for Education tools to improve workflow on student iPads ® to experimenting with the new virtual reality Google Cardboard viewfinder, everyone walked away with something that they wanted to try with students,” Thanks to the generous donors at the 2015 auction, more than $18,000 was raised to send more than 40 of Collegiate’s faculty and staff to the event. VAIS ACCREDITATION Norfolk Collegiate received full accreditation renewal from the Virginia Association of Independent Schools (VAIS) after participating in an accreditation self-study and visit. VAIS is the leading accrediting body for Virginia’s independent schools. In conjunction with the development of our new strategic plan, members of the Norfolk Collegiate faculty, staff and board engaged in a thorough process of data gathering, reflection and examination of our programs, processes and facilities relative to the VAIS standards for membership. On March 20-22, a team from VAIS institutions around the commonwealth visited Collegiate to assess the degree to which the school supports our mission and meets the standards for full membership in the VAIS. Chaired by Dr. Terrie Scheckelhoff, head of school at St. Catherine’s in Richmond, the team spent its time immersed in our school’s programs and culture and engaged in discussions with students, faculty, parents, staff, alumni and board members. They visited classes, attended assemblies and ate lunch with students in all three of our divisions. WWW.NORFOLKCOLLEGIATE.ORG

colleges and universities use probeware technology in their chemistry labs. Thanks to a gift from the estate of Mr. Kenneth Scribner, our middle and upper school students have the same technology.

In the classroom, science teachers were able to invigorate their daily lessons, thanks to the addition of PASCO probeware to its inventory. Probeware is sensorbased equipment that provides opportunities for our students to efficiently and quickly collect data and to analyze it using methods similar to those of scientists and engineers. These hands-on experiences also provide our students in science classes from grades six through 12 more time to interpret the graphic results. 41

BEYOND THE CLASSROOM

Students work in teams to strategize and engineer a tower made from Keva Planks that not only would be the highest in the class, but also would withstand a blow from Brendan Hoyle, coordinator of maker education.

Woodshop Reimagined MakerLabs turn curiosities into reality for students With the support of our donors during the 2016 Annual Auction, Norfolk Collegiate’s Fund-AnItem raised $25,050 to create community hubs for innovation and hands-on learning. These spaces, known as MakerLabs, are places where our students, faculty and staff and families can reinvent old ideas with new conceptual frameworks, utilize advancements in thinking and doing, and investigate and construct a hybrid of fine arts, sciences, crafts, industrial technologies, inventions, textiles, digital media, upcycling, STEAM and do-it-yourself concepts. Each division is outfitted with these spaces, each containing a unique set of developmentally appropriate tools and materials to promote flexibility and opportunity. “Students will be connecting the dots in their studies by building things that support their ideas 42

about what they are learning,” said Brendan Hoyle, coordinator of maker education, who heads up the spaces with science teachers Claire Fornsel, Melissa Silverman and information technology integration specialist Kathy Windley. “Each division’s MakerLab has aspects that will be primary focal points, including robotics, coding and basic programming in the lower school; Destination Imagination and related projects in the middle school; and larger team and individual projects in the upper school.” Our labs are labeled one through three with MakerLab 1 at the lower school, MakerLab 2 at the middle school and MakerLab 3 at the upper school. “One thing I like about the labs is that they teach us new tools such as MakeyMakey®, which uses electrical currents to program a keyboard,” Trafton Addison ’17 said. “The space encourages growth in an academic area that a lot of schools don’t offer. It’s nice to see how we are broadening our horizons.”

was raised at the Annual Auction to establish three MakerLabs at Norfolk Collegiate. MakerLabs are places where the analog and the digital meet—a 21st century combination of woodshop, computer lab, fabrication studio and think tank. The MakerLabs at Norfolk Collegiate are innovative learning spaces dedicated to student-driven projects that explore, experiment and engage. Each MakerLab provides tools, expert guidance and freedom to design and make impactful projects that are personally meaningful to each student. They function under the model of inquiry-based learning by allowing students the opportunity to solve problems and to work on projects they identify with and are passionate about exploring. The spaces also allow teachers the opportunity to tailor class lessons and projects to incorporate the MakerLabs. “MakerLab 2 opens lots of experiences for students; there are lots of tools and materials we can use for projects,” Zac Fowler ’22 said.

Fornsel was awarded a Mathas Professional Development Grant, which she used to research best practices at the two-day Design and Maker Colloquium with our coordinator of maker education Brendan Hoyle.

Mathas Professional Development Grants The Mathas Professional Development Grants was created in 2014 when Ted and Keryn Mathas expanded their annual donation to promote faculty growth in the areas outlined in the school’s Characteristics of Professional Excellence. The Mathas Grants provide funding for professional activities that will increase our faculty’s expertise in current standards and best practices in their disciplines, projectbased learning, technology integration and other identified areas of focus for the school. The grants also support faculty summer projects that will transform a program or area of the curriculum in a significant manner that will be replicated across the wider school community. The first Mathas Professional Development Grants were awarded in the 2014-15 school year. Those honored with the award for the 2015-16 school year included:

Brendan Hoyle and Claire Fornsel traveled to the Windward School in Los Angeles to research best practices at the two-day Design and Maker Claire Fornsel Colloquium. Upon their return, the two were able to use their ﬁndings to prepare detailed goals and objectives for the Norfolk Collegiate maker program (see page 42), as well as search our current curriculum maps Brendan Hoyle to identify entry points for maker space integration. They currently are in the process of working with faculty members in all divisions to develop project-based learning modules that incorporate our new maker spaces. This effort already has advanced a major objective of the Academic Innovation Task Force, while also allowing Hoyle and Fornsel to develop their individual STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) interests, knowledge and skills. Jan Weintraub, Sarah DeStefano and Emily Lindale ’02 traveled to the 20th Annual Character Matters Conference at the University of San Diego and are now developing division- Sarah DeStafano speciﬁc goals and objectives for integrating character education across divisions and creating professional development resources and training materials for their peers.

THE COLLEGIATE: YEAR IN REVIEW & PHILANTHROPY REPORT

Former Librarian Barbara Dryer speaks at The Spainhour Family Library dedication ceremony at the lower school.

Inspiring a love for reading A legacy can start with a simple act of southern hospitality, as was the case for the Spainhour family. On June 15, 2016, the lower school library was dedicated and renamed The Spainhour Family Library in honor of a legacy gift from Nancy and Howard Spainhour. The Spainhour’s relationship with Norfolk Collegiate began in the 1970s when the couple moved into their Larchmont home. Beloved algebra teacher Louise Vermillion lived down the street and welcomed the couple to the neighborhood. Later, former director of development Kay Stine and her husband, Ron, moved into the house next to the Spainhours, and it only seemed natural that they become involved with Norfolk Collegiate. The Stine’s son, Chris, soon began attending Norfolk Collegiate. When his grandparents were unable to attend the annual Grandparents Day, Howard happily accompanied young Chris and a neighboring classmate, Lauren Plomgren, to school. Howard soon became a ﬁxture at the school, becoming an honorary grandfather to all of the children. Howard visited the children each week and read to them in the library. Now-retired librarian Barbara Dyer would send home new WWW.NORFOLKCOLLEGIATE.ORG

books for Howard to “test drive.” If he liked the book, it would make it into his rotation with the students. Yet Dr. Seuss remained his favorite author to read to the young Oaks. In 2009, senior Kelly Manser wrote a children’s book for her senior project, which she dedicated to Howard. “He (Howard Spainhour) made such a difference in our lives by teaching us to love to read,” Kelly said. She recalled his visits to read to her classmates when she was in kindergarten and how at the end of his readings, he would give each student one peanut butter M&M, something that inspired her ﬁrst published work, “Alf and Melba.” “It took me a while to write it, to think of the right story. It’s very simple, about two prairie dogs who are afraid of a ﬂower,” Kelly said. “Eventually, they decide to conquer their fear and discover that it’s not so bad at all.” Howard’s involvement with Collegiate went on to include a nearly 12-year term on the Board of Trustees, where he served until 2003. Howard passed away in April 2007 and his wife, Nancy, in April 2015. However the legacy they left with our Oaks will endure. 65

Here are some of the highlights of our alumni this past year: ON-THE-ROAD REUNIONS Collegiate’s Alumni Relations Coordinator Cayte Brown ’08 visited several colleges during the second On-The-Road Reunion tour. More than 50 alumni

visited and networked during the reunions, which included those at James Madison University, the University of Virginia, the College of William and Mary, Virginia Tech, Washington and Lee University and Virginia Military Institute. Rebecca Zborowski, upper school math teacher, and Mary Peccie, director of admissions, joined Brown during the tour to see how our alumni are enjoying their college experience. Brown resumed the tours this fall with stops in Richmond, Washington, D.C., Atlanta and the Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill region.

Life insurance may provide a charitable deduction and benefit Collegiate. One way to give is to purchase a new policy and make the school the beneficiary. The second is to make a gift of a policy that you no longer need by designating Collegiate the policy’s owner and beneficiary. Please check with your insurance agent.

Your one-time gift is tax-deductible for the current year and can be given by check, credit card or cash.

WAYS TO

GIVE

There are a many ways to give that can be efficient, more beneﬁcial and have greater tax advantages than cash. By utilizing any of the methods described here, you may ﬁnd that you can give more and save more, which is a valuable combination for everyone.

WILLS & BEQUESTS

STOCKS, BONDS & PROPERTY

PLEDGES You may make a pledge now and spread payments of your gift over time for up to ﬁve years.

RAMBLIN’ MAN

WHAT’S TOUGH?

This is the phrase that kept Sam going through each day of his journey.

Pairs of running shoes Sam went through.

Unbelievably, Sam only used one set of bike tires on the biking portion of his quest from Yorktown, Va., to Frisco, Utah!

$35,000

amount thus far that Sam has raised for the Lustgarten Foundation, which funds research on pancreatic cancer. Sam’s goal was to raise $25,000 for the foundation.

Not only was Nevada the longest state that Sam had to get through, but also he ran through the entire state! It was the hardest state due to the long, grueling days spent running in the intense heat and dry climate. WWW.NORFOLKCOLLEGIATE.ORG
