MESSAGE FROM INTERIM HEAD OF SCHOOL

Nancy S. Palmer P’12

Dear Oldfields Family,

After a restorative Winter Break, our students returned to campus to an exciting four-day Winter Program experience, which you will read more about on pages 8 and 9. This engaged learning process, inspired by May Program, in which students “learn by doing” and by reflecting on their experience, is a hallmark of the Oldfields curriculum that is a favorite of our students.

Since Winter Break, we have been joined by five mid-year students, following a tradition of mid-year admissions that goes back to the days of our founder Anna Austen McCulloch. Campus visits for the fall are happening each week, and I have very much enjoyed meeting our prospective students and their families. Educational consultants tell us that Oldfields is unique in what we offer young women, and the word is spreading!

The hallways are buzzing with a flurry of activity— the students are working hard in class, some are preparing for AP exams, seniors are receiving acceptances to a multitude of fine colleges and universities, our varsity basketball team is making significant strides on the court, both our IEA Hunter Seat and Dressage Riding Teams have qualified for Regionals, and rehearsals for our theater performance of Rent are in full swing. Before we know it, Spring Break will be here, and it will feel as though time is flying by as we approach our beautiful Graduation ceremony, which bonds all alumni in a beloved shared tradition, building a feeling of school community that spans generations.

Your Oldfields experience and that of the students who are here today share many aspects, such as the feeling of family and the culture of kindness. Oldfields belongs to all of us. Thank you for keeping a piece of Oldfields in your heart and for your support, which “pays it forward” for future generations.

Warm regards,

Nancy S. Palmer P’12 Interim Head of School

WHAT’S YOUR STORY?

“What’s your story?” is the thought-provoking question Director of College Counseling Michael Wagner asks students.

By Director of College Counseling Michael Wagner

“What’s your story?“ is what I ask all of our students to think about as they navigate their Oldfields experience and apply for college. Before I explain, allow me to share my story…

I am originally from a small town in southern Minnesota, whose claim to fame is signified by a small blue can, the size of an index card, with large yellow letters. This is a canned cooked pork product called SPAM, renowned throughout the world. My father worked for the company for 37 years, which is what I was also expected to do. College was not even considered an option.

Until one day, college became a reality for me. I began to be recruited by colleges to play football and basketball. One, in particular, was a coach from the

University of Northern Iowa who visited my house to meet my parents and explain the football program and academics of the school. Following his visit, I went to the school on an official recruiting visit. The coach would return in February for me to sign a national letter of intent to play football and attend the University of Northern Iowa.

This was my unique college application experience, as my high school had little or no college counseling. I had no story; I just happened to play sports. This experience is what drives my dedication to help the students I serve as they navigate the complex world of the college application process.

After earning my undergraduate degree, my career began in banking, where I worked for 17 years before making

a complete career switch and reinvention of my work life to education. Working at an independent school in Los Angeles and conducting an after-school life skills program at two large inner-city public schools in South Los Angeles, I discovered a desire to coach basketball at the high school level. (Little did I know I would also fall in love with the game of volleyball. I am grateful that I now have the true enjoyment of coaching both at Oldfields.)

Through these experiences, I discovered my passion to help young adults navigate the intricate college application process. And in my new line of work, I quickly learned the importance of being able to answer

the questions, “Tell me about yourself?“ or, ultimately, “What’s your story?“

After working for 17 years in education in Los Angeles, my wife Dr. Ann, and I decided to combine our love of travel (we’ve been to over 30 countries together) with our educational skills and expertise to pursue education careers internationally. This led both of us to an international school in Wuxi, China, and then to Phnom Penh, Cambodia, only to have our time cut short by the pandemic. Upon returning to Los Angeles, our desire to continue to live internationally led us to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, only to be forced to leave the country because of the ongoing civil war.

After finally returning to Los Angeles, I discovered Oldfields School. I was fortunate to be offered the position of Director of College Counseling, and at Oldfields, I established a college counseling program which takes an in-depth, multi-year approach with a primary focus on helping each student find the right fit—the college, university, gap year, or post-graduate career path—that best meets the needs of the student. Each Oldfields student takes responsibility for their higher education plan, with my active support, as well as that of the faculty.

It is my passion and goal to help students understand and develop their own stories and to be an active participant in setting their goals and thinking about college and beyond. How will they share with others what excites them, their passions, and what goals and ambitions they want to achieve? To help the students I serve, we work together on developing their own experiences and their story that will aid them when a college representative or employer asks, “Tell me about yourself“ or simply “What’s your story?“

“It is my passion and goal to help students understand and develop their own stories and to be an active participant in setting their goals and thinking about college and beyond.”

Entering Oldfields, I was a timid girl who avoided challenges. The support I received was unfamiliar to me at the time so I distrusted it and was unwilling to make any improvements.

As time went on, I began to realize that the encouragement from my peers was genuine, and it pushed me to try new things. In an attempt to find excitement in my new school, I decided to go out of my comfort zone and give horseback riding a try.

Learning about the extensive amount of tasks I had to do for the horse was a responsibility that I never had to take on before. All of the stresses in my life seemed to temporarily disappear. Experiences such as mastering the canter for the first time, winning my first ribbon at a show, seeing the pride in my family’s faces watching me compete, and the feeling of satisfaction when grooming a dirty horse, quickly made horseback riding my favorite pastime. After months of pushing myself I started to rapidly improve. I made it to IEA Nationals in 2022

“...I began to realize that the encouragement from my peers was genuine, and it pushed me to try new things.”

– Cate Dayan ’23

and was given the opportunity to be the IEA captain my senior year.

These accomplishments made me realize that I wanted riding to be a part of my future. I did some research and found colleges that had equestrian programs. I was hesitant at first and doubted my abilities. I believed that my academic performance was not good enough. Mr. Mike’s support reminded me of the encouragement I received when I first started at Oldfields. I decided to trust him and apply to the schools I wanted to attend. I was able to get into extraordinary riding schools in the area such, as Emory & Henry, Randolph-Macon, and Sweet Briar.

Before I came to Oldfields, I attended a large public school. I did not get the individualized support and attention that many private school students had, and it began to impact my performance in school. I’ve always had aspirations of going to a prestigious university, and I understood that the environment I was in would not help me reach that goal.

In eighth grade, I began looking at other options for my high school career, and my parents brought up Oldfields. When I came to visit, three things caught my attention: how kind and welcoming everyone was, the support the teachers gave their students, and the College Counseling Program.

Reaching the level of confidence in yourself to apply early decision to any university, especially your “dream school,“ is very hard to achieve, yet I have first-hand experience.

I remember at the beginning of the year I asked Mr. Mike a million different questions about my application

“I am glad to have someone as knowledgeable and passionate about college counseling as Mr. Mike.”

– Chiya Gibson

and writing supplements because I was so worried about doing something wrong and ruining my chances of getting accepted. Every time I had a question, Mr. Mike was thorough in his response. I am glad to have someone as knowledgeable and passionate about college counseling as Mr. Mike. He is part of the reason why I will be attending my dream school in the fall, Vanderbilt University.

Having Mr. Mike as the head of the College Counseling Program is truly an amazing experience. He really knows what he is talking about and he cares. Oldfields students are lucky to have him here to support us.

WHAT’S YOUR STORY?: THE STUDENT PERSPECTIVE

On my second day at Oldfields, I remember sitting in a room covered in college flag pinwheels with Mr. Mike asking me what I plan to do with the rest of my life. Mr. Mike asked, “What do you do? What do you like? What are you passionate about?“ I recall responding, “I play the flute, I like to read, and I’m passionate about sex education.“ Mr. Mike persuaded me to research some colleges. What really convinced me to put in more effort though was when I learned that Mr. Mike was also the basketball coach. I’ve played basketball since I was five years old. Mr. Mike had just become ten times cooler!

Fast forward to the last few weeks of October when Mr. Mike advised me to apply early action, and I applied to eleven schools.

The first acceptance letter I received was two weeks later. My mom found out first, and I immediately ran to Mr. Mike’s office. About two weeks later, I received another acceptance letter, and I ran down from my Jane House room and banged on Mr. Mike’s door. I’ve narrowed

“I’ve narrowed down my eleven school acceptances to seven schools. I plan to double major in music education and women, gender, and sexuality studies.”

– April Lee ’23

down my eleven school acceptances to seven schools. I plan to double major in music education and women, gender, and sexuality studies. Then I am going to get my master’s degree in orchestral conducting.

The first school I got accepted to, Brevard, has me on track for a full tuition scholarship. During the months of January and February, I will be auditioning at all seven schools. Every time I tell Mr. Mike about auditions or about a new acceptance letter, he brings up our first meeting in his office and jokingly points out that I was the “girl who did not care.“ But now I do, and it paid off!

NEW PARTNERSHIPS

New partnerships with Johns Hopkins University and the Baltimore Forest School strengthen Oldfields

By Dean of Admission Malika DeLancey

Oldfields School has entered into two exciting partnerships with area schools. One is with The International Teaching and Global Learning Program (ITGL) at Johns Hopkins University, and the other is with the Baltimore Forest School. The partnership with Johns Hopkins is designed to connect Oldfields students and faculty with international graduate students attending the Johns Hopkins University Graduate School of Education while the partnership with the Baltimore Forest School will allow our students to focus on Environmental Justice projects alongside students attending Baltimore City Public Schools.

Cultural Exchange Program with the Johns Hopkins University Graduate School of Education

The partnership with Johns Hopkins began with five of our seniors joining the ITGL graduate students for a workshop led by Dr. Norma Day-Vines P’19, Associate Dean for Diversity and Faculty Development at Johns

cake and traditional Chinese candy while playing a lively game of trivia!

Our new friends in the ITGL program are interested in learning more about American high schools, connecting with American students and teachers, and volunteering or interning at Oldfields at some point in the future. A special thank you to Fangfang Ma, Johns Hopkins University lecturer, doctoral student, and mentor to the ITGL graduate school students and the Oldfields Admission team for creating this partnership and planning the activities. We look forward to future events!

Environmental Justice with the Baltimore Forest School

Oldfields is making a concerted effort to share our gorgeous campus with the larger community. Students, parents, and administrators from the Baltimore Forest School, a before- and after-school program for children in PK-8th grade in Baltimore City, worked with teachers Mr. Drew Shelton and Ms. Michelle Goodrich and our talented Oldfields students to examine big questions about our environment and to think about innovative ways to steward our campus. Guest teacher, Rylee Wernoch, graduate fellow with the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center, joined us as well. The Baltimore Forest School community is very impressed by our dynamic teachers and our bright and curious students. Oldfields, in partnership with the Baltimore Forest School, will continue to think through complex environmental justice topics.

Hopkins. For our second meeting, 25 of the ITGL graduate students spent the afternoon visiting classes at Oldfields and getting to know our students and teachers. Our most recent partnership activity was a Lunar New Year celebration led by our friends in the ITGL program. The celebration was simply spectacular! To conclude the celebration, we ate delicious pineapple

WINTER PROGRAM 2023 HIGHLIGHTS

HOW DO WE TELL OUR STORY?  Students explored the U.S. Capital of Washington, DC, visiting museums, monuments, and other venues that chronicle our history and evaluated the job we’ve done telling our history, especially of its people.

ELECTRONIC MUSIC PRODUCTION  Students attended sessions at Stages Music Arts in Cockeysville, MD, and learned about electronic music production using a program called Ableton. The highlight of their experience was creating their very own musical masterpiece!

OUTLAW AND INSIDER ART  Thinking about art from a new perspective, students created unusual art for themselves and added beauty and intrigue to the Oldfields campus.

TIES THAT BIND: HEARTS, MINDS, AND CONNECTING WITH HORSES  How do horses learn? Students explored better ways to communicate with horses through groundwork, mounted work, and breathwork exercises to build a stronger connection with their equine partners.

FOOD LITERACY  Cultural and social relationships are often tied to the foods we eat. Students learned we not only need food to survive, but more importantly, food is also a way to pass on cultural traditions and foster relationships.

HEALTHY INSIDE AND OUT  There are many layers to creating a healthy lifestyle. Students engaged in physical and mental exercises in the exploration of the mind-bodyspirit connection.

AMERICAN DREAM: SNOW AND SURF  Spending time exercising and challenging the mind with new physical skills provides many mental and physical health benefits. Students refined their skiing skills at Big Snow, an indoor ski slope in New Jersey.

COLLABORATIVE ART: COMMUNITY MURAL  A large mural masterpiece was created by this group of students and is now displayed in Rodney Hall. The entire Oldfields Community was involved in selecting the theme for this artwork, Diversity through Kindness and Inclusion

STOP MOTION  The art of animation came alive as students learned about stop-motion, claymation, and the techniques and styles of famous animators in this genre. Each student produced, filmed, and edited their very own stop-motion short film.

FRANCOPHONE ART  Students discovered highlights of French and Francophone art, with a strong focus on paintings and sculpture, by visiting five museums and two sculpture gardens.

Students worked together on this mural during the Collaborative Art Winter Program.

ITALIAN STUDENT MAKES LIFELONG MEMORIES

By Director of Marketing and Communications Francesca Troiano

Have you ever met someone who made an impact on your life even though you’ve only known them for a short time? The Oldfields community can all agree that international student, Cecilia Schui ’25, made her mark while attending Oldfields School for the fall semester as part of her study abroad experience. Though her time here was short, she didn’t skip a beat in embracing the traditions and magic of Oldfields.

In August 2022, fifteen-year old Cecilia arrived on campus from Milan, Italy, to begin her sophomore year in both a new country and a new school. Cecilia recalls, “I was excited but also very scared. As an only child, I was a little homesick but after the first two weeks, I found so many friends here!“

Her study abroad experience was a little untraditional as many students at Cecilia’s German-speaking school in Milan, Scuola Germanica di Milano, spend a semester studying abroad at European schools. Cecilia wanted to find a multicultural experience in the United States. After researching several boarding school options, Cecilia knew immediately she had found her home for the semester at Oldfields School.

With a week remaining in her one-semester experience, Cecilia reflected on her time at Oldfields.

Q. What do you love about Oldfields School?

Oldfields School is a very inclusive, diverse, and openminded school that provided me with a multicultural, diverse experience with more of a representation of the real world population. It helped me understand different perspectives. I loved the energy of the people on campus

and the happy and positive feelings that the people at Oldfields spread. I made so many friends here, and I would love to come back for Graduation. Or they can visit me in Italy someday!

Q. What life skills did you learn at Oldfields School?

Attending school at an English-speaking institution has helped me to practice my English-speaking skills. Having my Oldfields experience allowed me to change my living environment and see everything from another perspective. It really opened my eyes about a lot of things and it made me understand what is really important in life, like having true friends and the importance of compassion and kindness for one another. It helped me to grow more independent and to manage situations on my own. I appreciated the full immersive experience, from learning to do my own laundry to cleaning my room and living with a roommate.

Q. What experiences did you enjoy the most?

I am happy I was able to have the American Experience! I was on the Oldfields volleyball team, and it was fun to travel to games, see different schools, and wear a jersey. I loved going to the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Justice, and Belonging (DEIJB) Conference. I learned about abortion and gender issues, race discrimination, and how to take action against these injustices. I loved discussing these topics and learning how to be the change in your school community and beyond. I also enjoyed weekend activities and going to places that aren’t in Italy. Overall, I enjoyed meeting some amazing people, who are now the friends I never thought I would have! The people at Oldfields were so welcoming.

Highlights of the fall 2022 season included four character coins. Character coins may be given by opposing teams’ coaches to a student athlete who displays significant elements of fair play, integrity and respect, and each team has two character coins to hand out to opposing teams. Highlights of the fall 2022 season include two character coins given to August-Anthoni “August“

OLDFIELDS SCHOOL RIDING SPOTLIGHT

Bryce McNichol ’23 cares for Oldfields horses who are recovering from injuries

By Director of Riding Amy Phillips

Bryce McNichol ’23 is a four-year senior who has been riding since she was a little girl. She grew up watching her grandfather and mother ride and compete cutting horses and began riding and showing at a local barn, Country Hill Farm.

While at Oldfields, Bryce developed an interest in horse care and helping horses recover from injuries. On three occasions, the McNichol family has graciously taken in Oldfields horses to live at their nearby farm for rest and recovery, which allows the horses to recover in a setting that is quiet and restorative.

The horses remain under Bryce’s care as she receives daily instructions from Oldfields’ barn faculty, and in conjunction with the staff, she designs and implements a schedule for each horse to bring them slowly back into work. The horses which return to the Oldfields program from the McNichol farm are happy, healed, and ready to enter back into our lesson program.

Bryce has participated in everything the Oldfields Riding Program has to offer, including ANRC, hunters, jumpers, equitation, dressage, eventing, foxhunting, and cross country riding. This year, Bryce is leasing Oldfields’ Changzhu to pursue her goals in the equitation ring.

She is the only Oldfields rider to be a member of both our IEA Hunt Seat Team and our IEA Dressage Team. She was elected by her dressage teammates to be Captain of this new team. She qualified individually for Regionals in both Hunt Seat and Dressage, and she was a factor in both teams qualifying for IEA Regionals this year.

Bryce has also learned a lot about ground work through her experiences in our Equine Winter and May Programs. She has a natural feel for what she needs to do to get the best out of the horses. She embraces and seeks to learn more about how horses learn and how she can apply all of this to her time in the barn and in the saddle each day.

Bryce is passionate about horse care and horses, and she spends any free time she has at the barn, including summers and school breaks. She is eager to help, to learn, and to do everything she can to become a better horse person.

As Bryce looks towards next year, she has many opportunities to pursue her love of horses with acceptances to five different colleges with riding programs and degrees in Equine Science as well as many more equine majors. We couldn’t be more proud that Bryce will soon be an Oldfields alumna representing us in the equine world!

Founder’s Day and McCulloch Family Award

During our Founder’s Day celebration on September 8, 2022, we were pleased to award the McCulloch Family Award to long-time faculty member Ansley Smithwick. Ansley joined the Oldfields community in 1980 to teach French I and II, Western Civilization, and Home Economics and spent 40 years, virtually her entire adult life, contributing to “the magic of Oldfields,“ a phrase she coined. The McCulloch Family

Award is given to recognize an individual’s long service to Oldfields, and no one deserves this award more than Ansley Smithwick. For forty years, Ansley devoted herself to every person who passed through Oldfields’ gates, and especially to the countless young women who came here to be educated and called Oldfields their home. Thank you, Ansley, for your dedication and service to Oldfields!

Anya Hammerman ’13

On Friday, October 28, 2022, the Oldfields community had the pleasure of welcoming Anya Hammerman ’13 back to campus to describe what it is like to be a veterinary technician. Anya is a Registered Veterinary Technician at Everhart Veterinary Hospital in Baltimore, and she walked the students through animal case studies that had them asking questions nonstop. We could feel her passion come through as she spoke about all the different things she has experienced in her work. Thank you, Anya, for coming and sharing your life after Oldfields with us!

It was a festive afternoon that included alumni, parents, prospective families, former faculty and staff, and current students who enjoyed connecting with each other and sharing stories of Oldfields. After hearing from Interim Head of School Nancy S. Palmer P’12, current students shared some of their favorite things about Oldfields with the group. Thank you to the Helms for hosting us and to everyone who attended!

Maddy Darrell Pahr ’06 and James Kofi Annan

On Friday, November 11, 2022, Oldfields welcomed two special guests to campus. Madeline “Maddy“ Darrell Pahr ’06 and James Kofi Annan. Maddy is the Creative Director for a non-profit based in New York called Many Hopes. Many Hopes rescues children from oppression and raises them to be adults of influence equipped to do justice for others, resulting in exponential impact. Many Hopes advocates that children born into poverty can be changemakers in their communities. In her position as Creative Director, Maddy travels the globe, visiting those impacted by Many Hopes and documenting their stories to share with the world. We are so grateful to Maddy for connecting us with James, one of the incredible people with whom they partner at Many Hopes.

“Activism to end trafficking must be an innate calling, which then translates into long-term commitment. In this nothing, absolutely nothing including threats, lack of funds, violence, etc., is capable of quenching the flame,” said James Kofi Annan.

Maddy is able to use her skills in marketing and creative work to make an impact. Maddy shared that it was what she learned at Oldfields that helped shape who she is today and her desire to be a part of the solution. We are so proud of our alumni who leave Oldfields and go out into the world to make it a better place.

Thank you to Maddy and James for spending time with us and for bringing your stories to Oldfields students.

Ann Arbor Gathering

Even the snow can’t keep Oldfields girls apart! Caitlin “Caitie” Cunningham ’08 hosted brunch in Ann Arbor, MI, on November 20, 2022, and even despite the first big snowstorm, Dickie Chilton Jamieson ’84 made the trip. They had a lovely time reconnecting and reminiscing about Oldfields. Oldfields has fun wherever we are!

SHOUT OUTS

Bibi McGill ’15

On November 30, 2022, Brittany “Bibi“ McGill ’15 came back to campus to share her life after Oldfields. Bibi presented to multiple science classes, sharing her journey in wildlife conservation. Her work has included identifying whales, volunteering at a wildlife rehab center, assisting with the rescue of marine mammals, collecting data on bats in Iowa, and monitoring the behavior of tortoises in the Mojave Desert. Bibi’s passion was evident as she said, “We are the only voices they have. I want to be the first line of defense for animals.“ Thank you for sharing your journey so far with Oldfields!

San Diego Happy Hour

Oldfields made it to San Diego! While in town for a conference, Dean of Admission Malika DeLancey enjoyed meeting with alums Christine “Chris” Smith Rocca ’54 and her husband Leo and Lisa Natapow Grohman ’91 and her husband Tim on December 15, 2022. Oldfields connections are everywhere!

An update from the Oldfields Parent Association (OPA)

This year, Sarah Halford P’24 accepted the reins as President and Sheryl Stollof P’23 as Vice President of the Oldfields Parent Association (OPA). Under their leadership they have built an active executive team to include Mara Katz P’25 and Erin Carroll P’25, and with the help of a pool of parent volunteers, the OPA has brought beauty, joy, and fun to campus. Parent volunteers turned out in force to decorate the campus for the fall and winter holidays, the gym for a fall student dance, as well as the annual Thanksgiving and Holiday feasts.

Additionally, families provided prizes and fun for a night of Student Bingo, treats for Halloween, a pre-finals hot chocolate break, tech week sustenance for the Talon and Claw Players fall production of Puffs, and all the food and paper goods to successfully run concessions for two on-campus Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA) horse shows.

Spring brings new opportunities for the OPA to continue to show appreciation, offer some comforts of home, and

support a robust campus life. Join them to decorate the campus, both seasonally and for special events, to staff special treats for our students throughout the semester, or to provide food and sweets during the arduous tech week for the Spring musical, Rent!

The OPA is also planning a week of special treats for Faculty and Staff Appreciation Week in May and is accepting donations of gift cards, small gifts, or money to celebrate the adults in our community. Be sure to check SignUp Genius on the parent resources page of the Oldfields website for more information and other ways that you can partner with the OPA.

As parents of Oldfields students, there is a place for you in the growing OPA. Whatever your availability or resources, the OPA appreciates you and your willingness to support our activities. If you would like more information about OPA activities, please reach out to OPA@OldfieldsSchool.org.

LIFE AFTER OLDFIELDS: ALUMNI INTERVIEWS

Maddie Cole Reese ’10, Certified Nurse-Midwife

Can you give a brief description of what you do?

As a Certified Nurse-Midwife (CNM), I provide care during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period; sexual and reproductive health; gynecologic health; and family planning services, including preconception care. Midwives also provide primary care for individuals from adolescence throughout the lifespan, as well as care for the healthy newborn during the first 28 days of life. CNMs are advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs). To become a CNM, registered nurses must graduate from an accredited master’s or higher level nurse-midwifery education program and pass a national exam. With our unique skill sets, midwives help improve quality, decrease costs, and serve as excellent advocates for patients.

What made you want to become a midwife?

After graduating from Oldfields, I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do. I knew I wanted to care for, educate, and work with others, particularly women, and it took me some time to realize I could do all those things through nursing. During my maternity rotation in nursing school, a nurse-midwife attended the first birth I ever saw. I was hooked that very moment, and every day since then, I have continued to learn and love this vocation.

What did you learn at Oldfields that you still use in your life today?

Two things have really stuck with me since my time at Oldfields. First, is the school motto Fortezza, ed Umilitade, e Largo Core—Courage, Humility, and

Largeness of Heart. This motto is the foundation on which I have built much of who I am. It is very much a part of the way I practice midwifery and live my life. The second is to never stop learning and always ask questions. Oldfields taught me to always be open to new ways of thinking and learning new things, especially the ones that make you step out of your comfort zone.

What do you miss most about Oldfields?

I miss living in such a beautiful place. No matter the season, the Oldfields campus is always beautiful, and I always appreciated the peace it offered. I miss the people, especially those who inspired and challenged me. My four years at Oldfields are some of my favorite memories. My Oldfields education, the people, and the memories I made there, are all close to my heart. I know I wouldn’t be the woman I am today without them.

LIFE AFTER OLDFIELDS: ALUMNI INTERVIEWS

Samantha Frazier ’16, Operational Support Technician

Can you give a brief description of what you do?

I currently work as an Operational Support Technician within the U.S. Department of Justice. Embedded on a team, I help in an administrative capacity to make sure that everything entering our system is done correctly so that it can be properly assessed in our system. I also work as a Task Force Coordinator, handling the partnerships and the day-to-day administrative operations that go along with the team I assist, keeping local and state partnerships in compliance with my agency’s policies and procedures. Outside of work, I just started my graduate school program pursuing my master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Johns Hopkins University.

What is your proudest accomplishment to date, personal or professional?

My proudest moment to date, which is a mix of personal and professional, is achieving my post-baccalaureate certificate in Trauma-Informed Educational Practices and getting into my master’s program. My personal achievement is that for a while I kept constantly hearing the word “no“ or that I needed to prove to programs and people that I was knowledgeable and prepared to do graduate-level work even though I did well in undergrad. My professional achievement is that, because I now have the additional learning, I can enhance my learning in Family Science (undergraduate degree), while also using my training and experiences to work my way to becoming a therapist either in my current fields of criminal justice or in any field that I choose.

What did you learn at Oldfields that you still use in your life today?

One thing Oldifelds taught me that I still use in my life today is leadership skills, involving myself in projects and groups at work and in extra-curricular activities to make myself well-rounded. Because of Oldifelds, I am more confident in raising my hand to assist or to gain knowledge on something. They allowed us as students to gain those opportunities to grow in that way, and I am forever grateful. Another thing that I learned at Oldfields

that I still use in my life today is time management. Being able to prioritize tasks or life changes and manage time to the best of my ability has helped me professionally and allowed me to continue my academic career. Study Hall and the snack break were so essential to me being able to ask teachers questions and get a head start on my assignments.

What do you miss most about Oldfields?

What I miss about Oldfields the most are the faculty who significantly impacted my life (those present and those who have since left). If it was not for their push and support, I am not sure where I would be. I also miss the traditions. Though, as a freshman, I didn’t quite understand them, by the time I became a senior, and now an alumna, they are something I hold very dear because of the memories they gave me. Lastly, I miss being on Oldfields’ beautiful campus. I used to internally complain about being kind of in the middle of nowhere, but after returning and visiting the campus, there is nothing like the little oasis that for years I used to call my home away from home.

Elizabeth “Liz“ Lafferty Woodman ’70, Publisher, Podcaster

Can you give a brief description of what you do?

I’ve worked in book publishing for most of my career. About 15 years ago, I started Eno Publishers, a regional publishing program, named for the river that runs through Hillsborough, North Carolina, where I live. Right before COVID, I decided to shift from paper to audio and jump on the podcast wagon. (My first job was at a radio station. I loved radio. I still do. But I was told my voice wasn’t right for it.)

Now, I record some of the authors we’ve published over the years. We call it “27 Views“ podcast, named for a series of anthologies we released. Authors read and talk about their stories, some of which are literary, some of which are just fun. Initially, I never expected to do more than interview the authors-–you know, the fun part. Some amazingly skillful students from UNC had signed on to do all things technical. But during the pandemic they scattered. Not wanting all the recordings to gather dust, I learned audio editing and how to do my own recording.

What do you enjoy about publishing and podcasting?

Today, I finished an episode about Georgia Carroll, who was a famous cover girl and married bandleader Kay Kyser. The couple left glamorous 1940s Beverly Hills to settle in Chapel Hill. Her story is told through the eyes of a writer who was her close friend. In a previous episode, we visited with a Washington Post columnist who talked about the pressures of being his family’s Christmas pie king…and we discussed/argued about the correct pronunciation of p-e-c-a-n. Novelists Jill McCorkle and Allan Gurganus and the late Elizabeth Spencer also are featured.

What did you learn at Oldfields that you still use in your life today?

When you ask what I learned at Oldfields that I use in my daily life, I remember learning to love books and

reading during my years at Oldfields. We spent forever in study hall back then, and reading made the hours fly by. Whereas algebra…

What do you miss most about Oldfields?

The most enduring gift from Oldfields days is, of course, friendship. My life feels fuller for all the engaging, smart, independent women with whom I feel such a strong bond. And they remember whether they were a Green or a White, and, like true friends, amazingly enough, remind me of my affiliation (Green, I think…no wait… White? I’ll have to call them).

CLASS NOTES

1950

Lowrey Hardin Jones ’50 - Many years ago, in 1946, I entered Oldfields as a freshman! I consider it one of the luckiest days of my life! My experience there was so meaningful, inspiring, confidence-building! I am forever grateful to this very special home of four irreplaceable years!

1957

Jane Kelso ’57 - I am happily living on my farm in Rappahannock, VA. Raising a litter of Labrador puppies each year and taking care my two horses, miniature donkey, cows, and chickens. With five Labradors and four cats, life on the farm is busy.

was shocked at the condition of the trees and woods in northwest Connecticut. Climate change is here! A drought in August then a 24-hour rain and not a puddle of water in sight. I talk almost weekly with Wendy de Clairville Kemper ’57 who visited Marty Merrow Wilson ’57 in her lovely new house in Hobe Sound, FL, within the same community she has been living. Take care, stay safe.

Anne Gamble Peterson ’57 - I can’t believe I have been in Bernardsville 50 years. That’s a long time! Pete and I still have our menagerie of eight chickens, three golden pheasants, one Lab, and one Westie. I guess I always wanted to be a farmer who doesn’t have to work too hard. Along with that, we have six wonderful grandchildren. They keep us hopping, as do our three kids. In town I am known as the “Flower Lady,“ because I procure all the flowering baskets that are hung during the summer, plus the street containers. I have always been involved with horticulture and am a crazy plant grower. I have entered many plants in the Philadelphia Flower Show. I would love to see all of you sometime.

Marty Merrow Wilson ’57 - Marty is managing to get through the Florida weather so far this year, but did cancel their Christmas cruise since Marty is having some leg problems.

Wendy de Clairville Kemper ’57 - Lots of croquet and tournaments. Volunteering weekly for Shield Ministries. I am a mentor in the men’s prison, teaching 15 words that will prepare them to go out for job interviews. Basic words like punctuality, sensitivity, etc.

Jane Hallenborg Peters ’57 - This year has been a quiet year for me, avoiding COVID. I spent six weeks in Connecticut during August and part of September. I

Jane Kelso ’57 with two of her Labrador puppies.

Jane Hallenborg Peters ’57 after taking her granddog for her early morning walk. Now for coffee and a discussion over the morning newspaper.

1959

Grace Rogers ’59 - In the “What’s New“ department: I have put my burgeoning post-retirement writing career on hold (one story, “Peace Umbrella,“ published in the Catamaran Literary Journal in their August 2019 issue) to attend to family needs, including being a caregiver to my sweet, sweet husband after he successfully survived cardiac arrest. Be well all, and stay well. We have.

1961

Susan Lloyd Scannell ’61 - Still living in New Canaan. My oldest grandchild graduated from college. I’d love to get together with anyone from Oldfields!

1964

Jackie Thomas Carey ’64 - My oldest grandson, Nick, turned 18 this year, and it made me realize we were about that age when we were forming the bonds that still tie us together. Wow. Talk about a change in perspective! He lives in Tennessee and is a senior in high school. College acceptances are rolling in, and if he isn’t besieged by girls, they’re all blind. Did I mention he plays football? The Florida crew, erstwhile of the Bahamas, are flourishing. Roman, who just turned five, is in Pre-K4 and can legitimately beat his father at chess. Isla, who will be three in January, is a live wire. She’s the one who climbed the ladder to the top of the slide at 16 months and then jumped off. Needless to say, we are immensely proud of all of them (also of their parents, lol).

Susan West Ross ’64 - Spent a few nights with Dee Allen ’64 and Bev Wilson Parry ’64 in September in Newport at our new rented house as we sold our old house two years ago and had a lot of laughs about our days at Oldfields and the state of our health now, i.e. five knee replacements between us, etc. Aging is definitely not for sissies, but you have to keep your sense of humor! Which we did! Hoping to visit Bev in Nevis in March. My husband Don is still working (did I ever mention he’s a workaholic?), and we are still living in Newport, RI, but this is our second year spending our winters in Ocean Ridge, FL, where we’ve met a lot of new friends including Tillie Laird Brown ’64’s brother Clinton Laird and also ran into Tory Bartol Vallely ’68. Hopefully will see Susie Young Granville ’64 this winter, too. Small world with lots of Oldfields connections all over the place.

1965

Jane Farley Simonds ’65 - Bill and I moved to Bethesda, MD, in June 2022 to be closer to our two sons and their families. A great decision. We sold our house of 50 years in Locust Valley, NY. It took two months from yes to the finished move. We never made it to Maine this summer, a first for me! Polly Hyde Crawford ’65 and I usually try to get together. Perhaps we can meet in MD. I have retired from my painting and mostly knit, play bridge, canasta, and Rummikub. We have two Border Terriers, Gloria (13) and Brodie (12), who keep us walking!

1969

Dede Perkins Gilbert ’69 - In touch with Marion Smith ’69, Susalee Norris Sasser ’69, and Mary Scott Remer ’69! All great!

Chris Hubbell McCambridge ’69 - My husband, Mick, passed away in September 2021. Thankful for my Oldfields friends who are still in contact, Holly Hall ’69, Missy McNeely-Lynn ’68, and Leigh Gaston Punj ’69. All three of my children live near me with my five grandkids!

Susalee Norris Sasser ’69 - Praise the Lord, we are coming out of COVID-19. We are back to doing dental mission trips with the dental students. We worked in the prisons in Dominican Republic twice. We also went to Honduras. Next year we have several trips planned to Roatan, Nicaragua, Ecuador, and others. We’ve enjoyed time with our children and grandchildren in Brooklyn and Birmingham. Dr. Bill has finally opened the free dental clinic in north Charleston which is the realization of a four-year dream. I spend most of my week at our place on Edisto Island. The rest of the time I am in Mount Pleasant. I talk to Dede Perkins Gilbert ’69 and Marion Smith ’69 periodically. They are both doing well.

1971

Sarah Townsend Rumery ’71 - Tom and I are enjoying our retired years. We live in western Colorado near the towns of Aspen and Glenwood Springs. Please, if you are traveling out our way, please let us know. We are proud grandparents to six grandchildren, most of whom live very nearby. Life is busy and full! We feel so blessed.

Seashols Starks ’71 - Hugs to all for a fun, healthy, prosperous year.

Sandra Washburn ’71 - I continue our work in Uganda via Google Meet and WhatsApp. During the pandemic our team learned to create eBraille textbooks for primary and secondary students. They also started designing 3-D printing aids like an Abacus and a slate and style for the Blind Annex learners. We will visit Cape Cod this summer.

1972

Carol Hubbell Engebretson ’72 - Enjoyed our 50th reunion last April with eight other classmates. Mark and I were able to gather our entire family (11) in Wayzata, MN, this past summer. We were able travel to our cottage in Canada and found that it was dry and no mice had moved in! Hope all are doing well and come back in April for our 51st.

Lulu Laubenstein Good ’72 - Had a fun-filled summer with family and friends in the Poconos. Fall has been a little quieter, but that is okay! Family was spread out for the holidays, but at least we got about a week with our son Anderson at Christmas. He continues to recover from his hip surgery and is inching his way back on to a doubles squash court. So proud of his progress!

Natalie Morgan Macy ’72 - 2022 was more normal, thankfully, and I was able to get together with family and friends! Had a wonderful time at our Oldfields 50th Reunion in April with dear friends I’ve known for over 53 years! It’s hard to believe that so many years have passed, but it’s true, and now another year is waning...thankfully

I’m enjoying the “passage of time“ and staying busy with meetings, researching, writing, gardening, and, most importantly, spending special time with friends and family! Wishing one and all a joy-filled 2023!

Susan “Silly” Sillcox Repko ’72 - Promoting Oldfields even in AZ. Enjoying the desert all seasons except summer. Come visit!

1973

Audrey Snyder Felske ’73 - The world is definitely a small one: ran into my dear roommate from Oldfields here at Abaco Beach Resort and Boat Harbour Marina! How awesome is that?! So glad to see you Kathie Slater Hart ’73 P’06!

Michelle “Chellie“ Blake Kew ’73 - In July my first grandbaby was born. Darling little Nico lives in CT with my son Octavio and daughter-in-law Mirta. Jeannette, my wonderful daughter, and I call Phoenix, AZ, home these days. Any coming through, do reach out, would love to meet and chat about the great times at Oldfields. My second book Crow and A Red Feather was published in the UK and has won honorable mention under Biography/Autobiography/Memoir at the London Book Festival, the New England Book Festival, and the L.A. Book Festival. A tiny book. A love story. A survival story about hope and beating the odds. Humbled by the comments received. I recently gave a lecture in Assisi, Italy, on both the book and my work in Africa. Great fun. I am and will continue to be grateful for the time spent at Oldfields School and remember Hawley Rogers well. A wonderful human being and a passionate teacher. Wishing all the very best!

1974

Diana Kaiser Bulger ’74 - I was honored to have another art exhibition this year at the University Club of DC. Wonderful news, Liz Kumpa Gordon ’73 and her husband Jeffrey have moved back to DC. It was wonderful to see them at the Oldfields gathering on December 4, 2022 on Capitol Hill.

1976

Elizabeth “Biddie” Labrot ’76 - I was able to attend Alumni Weekend. How great it was to be in-person again! While it was so good to see many of my classmates, it was bittersweet as we said goodbye to Hawley. He had such an impact on so many lives. How lucky we were to have him in ours. We had some fun travels this summer and brought a little of Oldfields with us. Sturgis the Sheep joined us on our adventures. Please plan on coming back to campus in April for Alumni Weekend!

1978

Daintria Baker McClure ’78 - Judy Smith and Taylor Smith met up with Daintria Baker McClure ’78 in Rockport, ME, in the fall of 2022.

1977

Douglas Moncure Butler ’77

1981

Heather Wistar LaBudde ’81 - Hello, OS! Hope everyone is doing well. I am doing well. Just finished up women’s Bible study at my church on the prophet Elijah in first and second Kings in the Bible. It was eye-opening! Starting in the New Testament in January in the book of Mark. Stopped working on my counseling degree last March due to family and COVID-19, but I am still hopeful to return to my field of occupational therapy. Hard when one is the caretaker for others! Timothy is 20 and enjoying the adaptive EMBARK program at Salem State. Christopher turns 23 this month and is in his first year at Tufts Medical School (they just started working on cadavers!). My husband and I are in a new role hosting a small care group from our church and enjoying it. I make the tea while Doug leads the study of Philippians. Hoping to make some fun Christmas cards soon. Craft table is a mess! Was able to get the whole family out for a Thanksgiving walk on the nearby campus of Gordon College. The day was lovely, and Timothy was thrilled to be out!

Asifa Hassam ’84 - Hello all, this past year and half have been difficult for me. I am recovering, gradually, and I miss you all. I hope to have full recovery and be able to do fun gatherings again. Have a safe and happy New Year.

Jennifer Littleton ’84 - After not being able to exhibit my art work for many years due to a serious case of Lyme disease, my watercolor painting “See Me In Life After Dancing Death“ (God is my rock), was accepted into the American Watercolor Society Exhibition and The Alaskan Watercolor Society National Exhibition. Only 28 paintings were accepted, and mine was one of them. I have truly been blessed.

Sheila Wiley Harrell ’90 - Sheila connected with Charlotte Mayer ’14 and Louise Chapman ’13 at the Middleburg, VA, Christmas Parade.

1991

Aina Herbert Hunter ’91 - Hello, Oldfields people! Happy to announce the publication of my debut novel, Charlotte and the Chickenman: The Inevitable Nigrescence of CharlotteNoa Tibbit. Reviews have been great so far, but the entire stressful/exciting/terrifying process has aged me a decade. It’s on Amazon but the best way is direct from my awesome little publisher @WhiskeytitBooks. https://whiskeytit.com/ product/charlotte-and-the-chickenman/

learned how exciting it can be, as a former newspaper reporter, to read my own name and book title on a press release(!). It’s the little things, isn’t it? Above Left: Aina Herbert Hunter ’91’s book, Charlotte and the Chickenman: The Inevitable Nigrescence of Charlotte-Noa Tibbit

Leslie Falini Young ’91 - Leslie won the 2022 National Steeplechase Association’s Leading Trainer Award! Only the third woman in history to be named top conditioner in the country, Leslie secured the championship with an unsurmountable advantage in wins before the season even ended, notching her 37th triumph with a win in Charleston with Leipers Fork Steeplechasers’ Captain Middleton. Congratulations, Leslie!

Tasheka Alexis ’92 - Just stopping in to say, “Hi!“ I am living the empty-nester life in Atlanta...and enjoying every minute of it! My daughter is a sophomore at Howard University and loves DC. If you are ever in Atlanta, hit me up to meet for a drink.

Elizabeth “Liz“ Hoogenboom Clary ’95 - 2022, for me, will be remembered as the year of a big move, only nine blocks away. Moving can be exhausting, and this one surely was. I am thrilled to look forward to a year of settling in and concentrating on my work at Skurnik Wines and my two great kids, Emma (9) and Finn (7), who keep me busy and extraordinarily happy.

Christine Edwards ’95 - Hi, Oldfields, I hope this note finds all well. It’s been a busy year with highs and lows, but that’s how it goes! I so enjoyed being back on the beautiful Oldfields campus in April for Alumni Weekend and the wonderful celebration of life for Mr. Rogers. Huge hugs to all!

Pamela Irvin Jordan ’92 - Happy belated 30th reunion, classmates! I was sad to miss our 30th reunion and Mr. Roger’s tribute. In April of 2021, Dennis and I celebrated our 25th anniversary.
