News of the School Report from the Head of School

My family and I have had a smooth and wonderful transition to Indianapolis, and I thank everyone for making us feel so welcome since our arrival in July. I feel very blessed to work with people who are passionate about schools and education and who share similar values. In September, after just a few months in my new position, I had the opportunity to speak at a reception recognizing those who have made leadership gifts to the Park Tudor Annual Fund, those who have included the school in their estate plans, as well as past and present members of our Board and Trust. I’d like to share some of what I said to them with the entire Park Tudor community, because I believe it is at the heart of what Park Tudor is all about. I came to Park Tudor because I believe that it is a great school. Many of you have heard me say that the anatomy of great schools is really very simple: Dedicated and professional teachers, motivated kids, and a strong and vibrant community. Our work as administrators is to maximize the contact time kids have with teachers, and to help the broader community not only to find ways to support the vision of the school, but also to enhance its mission. Simply put, faculty, students, and community are our greatest resources. In an essay published in November 2005, author David Brooks makes the important case that the greatest investment we can make as a society in the future is in human capital. I could not agree more. Brooks makes clear that by human capital he does not mean simply the traditional expressions that economists and policy makers consider (“the skills and knowledge that people need to get jobs done and thrive in the modern economy”), but rather he is referring to deeper, “underlying components” of human capital. I am interested in using this lens to talk about our shared investment in the various components of capital that Park Tudor brings to bear.

4

Intellectual Capital Our greatest resource is our faculty. We can talk about buildings, endowments, and other extraneous assets, but in the final analysis, great schools are about faculty and students, and their shared commitment to intellectual development. Great teachers do not just happen: they are grounded in discipline and committed to students, but they must be developed and cultivated. We have made a major investment in our faculty around professional development and growth opportunities; we are also creating systemic structures that support deeper teacher communication and development as well as articulation of the academic program across divisions. We are creating support mechanisms to further develop our evaluation process and more authentic ways to give teachers feedback. More importantly, we have stressed that great schools innovate and grow, and that we need to develop a culture of acceptable failure. How we respond to failure defines us, and it is arguably one of the most important qualities we can impart. Great teachers—David Kivela, Tom Black, C.J. Foxlow and Floyd Satterlee, to name a few—have justly earned this school the national reputation it deserves; many equally great educators are here now. There is no greater asset than our teachers, and we need to continue to develop them as our greatest resource. Human Capital As I mentioned above, Brooks is interested in the “underlying components” of human capital. He references cultural or social, moral, and aspirational capital; each has a distinct expression at Park Tudor. Cultural capital is, formally, the “habits, assumptions, emotional dispositions and linguistic capacities we unconsciously pick up from families, neighbors and ethnic groups.” Cultural capital also captures how we behave in a group, what assumptions

Dr. Matthew Miller

we bring to bear, and what sort of manners and dispositions we adopt. Park Tudor, in its unique articulation of cultural capital, helps students to develop a mature, reflective stance on the community and their own development. The expressions of this are phrases like “It’s cool to be smart at Park Tudor,” or “I can be myself,” but there are also the more subtle, non-cognitive aspects of student growth—resilience, determination and self-awareness. These true 21stcentury skills are arguably as important, if not more important, than traditional elements of academic growth. How students respond to challenges, how they adjust to difficult situations, and their ability to show empathy toward others reveal a great deal about their growth and the outcomes of their academic experience. I cannot imagine a greater opportunity for children than putting them in an environment that develops, encourages, and allows for selfgrowth and definition. Moral capital is the way we teach students to do what is right, or the sort of ethical framing we develop in them. Great schools weave ethical thinking throughout their curricula and their advisory system;

Colts quarterback Peyton Manning visits PT, talks about leadership

When students arrived at school on the Tuesday morning after their Fall Break, they weren’t expecting to head to an assembly at 8:15 a.m. As classes from junior kindergarten through grade 12 arrived in the varsity gym and took their seats, they weren’t sure what to expect. They had only been told that they were gathered to hear a special speaker. Head of School Matthew Miller took to the podium to break the news: the special guest was none other than Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning. Manning has a special connection to Park Tudor: he spoke at the school’s commencement in 2001 and visited the school for an assembly in 2007. Manning is a graduate of Isidore Newman School in New Orleans, an independent preK to grade 12 school much like Park Tudor, where Dr. Miller previously served as associate head of school. He has told the students that Park Tudor is much like his own alma mater. Manning talked to the students about the importance of leadership and overcoming adversity. “Sooner or later, adversity is something we all have to deal with,” he said. “We are all in control of our attitudes. The true measure of your character is how you handle bad times. Keep your head up, roll with the punches, just keep moving forward.” He also spoke about being a leader. “Even though I haven’t been on the field, I can still be a leader for my team. You have to control the things you can, and embrace every opportunity you can to be a leader.” Following his remarks, student leaders of the Lower, Middle and Upper School Student Councils asked questions on behalf of the student body. Manning was asked what sports he played at Isidore Newman and what other activities he participated in as a student. He said that he played basketball, baseball and football in high school, and that he played the role of “Miguel” in his eighth-grade production of “The Boyfriend,” where he was required to perform a tango dance. He added with a laugh that the video is not available for viewing on YouTube. He told the students, “My parents always taught me that if you sign up for something you have to commit to it. I always had to work hard at school. We weren’t allowed to play sports unless we did well in school.” Lower School Student Council President Henry Stewart presented Mr. Manning with a set of golf balls, saying, “We hope that when you play golf you will think of Park Tudor.” Manning also was introduced to his namesake, Park Tudor puppy Peyton (see related article on page 7).

Lower School has Math in Focus

After a year-long study and review, Park

Tudor has chosen “Math In Focus,” the American version of Singapore Math, as the core curriculum for math instruction in the Lower School. The inquiry-based curriculum, successfully in use at a number of independent schools nationwide, was chosen as the best preparation for Park Tudor students for their future higher-level math studies. Lower, Middle and Upper School teachers and administrators weighed in on the decision to choose Math in Focus after a thorough review of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics standards. Three factors made Math in Focus stand out: • Proven success. Since adopting the approach in the late 1980s, Singapore students’ achievement soared to the top of world performance standards on the Trends in International Math and Science Study, a benchmark for achievement among industrialized nations. • Strong emphasis on problem solving and skill mastery. • Focused, coherent curriculum that covers fewer topics in greater depth, avoiding unnecessary repetition at each grade level. Equally importantly, Math In Focus helps students to “think about how they learn.” In doing so, the Math in Focus curriculum fits perfectly with our belief in core competencies and 21st-century outcomes; in other words, it is an inquiry-based program that is by design richer and deeper in its conceptualization than other mathematics curricula, according to Peter Kraft, associate head of school for academic affairs.

of 21st-century teaching skills and Tony Wagner’s book “The Global Achievement Gap.” A major area of focus for department chairs this year is working to develop critical-thinking skills and formative assessment strategies (i.e., assessments that build knowledge in students, rather than simply measuring what they have already learned) as part of the school’s focus on “Great Teaching in an Age of Change.” • Celebrating Great Teaching: A group of teachers, led by Coordinator of Media Services Jane Hizer, is piloting a program that focuses on innovative teaching at Park Tudor. Deliberately informal and entirely voluntary, the group is meeting monthly to demonstrate and discuss best practices in classrooms. The program is intended to promote dialogue across divisions, celebrate great teaching, and foster innovative, collaborative thinking. • In June, Director of College Guidance Larry Eckel served as a presenter and panelist at the Admissions Maze program on the campus of Washington and Lee University in Lexington, VA. He joined the deans of admission from the College of William & Mary, Dickinson College and Washington and Lee, and the former deans of Emory and Tulane universities in a workshop

designed to assist W & L alumni and their children in understanding the intricacies of the college search and admission process at highly selective colleges. More than 400 students and parents attended. • Upper School Dean of Students and College Counselor Joe Fumusa attended the New England Summer Institute for secondary and college admission counselors in Manchester, NH in July. Topics included issues and trends in education, curricula for undergraduate admissions, recruitment of athletes, multicultural schools, financial aid, and the importance of the development of the whole person in preparing for college and life. • Dr. Scott Hamilton, director of The Russel & Mary Williams Learning Project and Lower School psychologist, has completed the state requirements for licensure as an addictions counselor. Dr. Hamilton is also licensed as a psychologist. He is co-chair of the Park Tudor Wellness Committee, which focuses on educating students about making healthy choices. • Middle School Psychologist Dr. Mary Ann Scott presented a training session on assistive technology at the Indiana Association of School Psychologists Annual

Her presentation, “Smart Tech Tools: Effective and efficient support for students with mild LD, ADHD, and/or Executive Dysfunction,” highlighted a variety of assistive technology tools for students, such as digital smart pens; apps for time management, organization and studying; software for reading, writing and note-taking; and web-based math supports. • Latin and Classical Greek teacher Clifford Hull, who is a member of the Advanced Placement Latin Development Committee, presented a paper in July at the National Junior Classical League at Eastern Kentucky University in Richmond, Kentucky, on the format of the new AP Latin exam, which will be given in May 2013. He also serves on the AP Latin curriculum review committee, which is responsible for designing the new AP Latin syllabus. • Food Service Director John Richey has been awarded Aladdin Food Service’s highly coveted 2011 Service Award. The award is given to the Aladdin manager who attains and sustains conspicuously high customer and client satisfaction. Richey has won many awards in his 24 years with Aladdin; now in his 12th school year at Park Tudor, he is serving a senior class who were first-graders when he started.

New face on campus

Puppy love struck Park Tudor this fall

with the addition of Peyton, a golden retriever, as a new school dog. Peyton joins veteran school dog Gracie, who has been at Park Tudor for more than a decade. Although there are no plans to retire Gracie, it seemed like a good time to groom a new dog, according to Joan Grinkmeyer, Upper School counselor and owner of both dogs. Puppy Peyton and Gracie are getting along well with each other and students, says Grinkmeyer. Peyton spends most of his time in the Upper School while he outgrows some of his puppyish exuberance and works on socialization and obedience. Additional training to become a certified “facility dog” is expected to begin next year.

The new courtyard walkway between the Lower and Middle Schools was completed this fall.

The tradition of a school dog at Park Tudor began with Gracie, who came as part of the Canine Companions for Independence training program. After spending one year being socialized at Park Tudor, she was sent to Columbus, Ohio to be trained and placed in service as a companion dog. “Fortunately for us, Gracie was released from the program and returned to us for free because she was not bold enough to be the leader in a companion relationship,” Grinkmeyer says. “Gracie has had a huge impact on our school community. Her presence at school events, where she works through the crowds, stopping randomly for petting, is unique to Park Tudor. Walking across campus with her is like escorting a rock star, as every child on campus from junior kindergarten to seniors knows who she is.” Grinkmeyer says school dogs have been associated with higher student motivation, involvement, and feelings of wellbeing. Gracie has comforted students through difficult times with unconditional affection and acceptance. “I am normally not a dog person, but Gracie has been here practically since I’ve been here in kindergarten,” says junior Brianna Brooks. “She’s just part of Park Tudor.”

Campus enhancements increase accessibility

Over the summer, our campus was en-

hanced to include new features that will improve accessibility to those with disabilities. A new elevator has been installed in the Lower School, which will serve as a means for those with mobility issues to reach the fourth- and fifth-grade classrooms on the second floor of the building. The project also includes a new curved accessibility walkway between the Lower School and Middle School buildings. A fountain accents the top area of the walkway. Over time, named bricks for honoring Park Tudor families, students, faculty and staff will be added. The construction project also included replacement of old water and fire protection lines, which may signal the end of one recent Park Tudor tradition: school cancellations due to water main breaks that occasionally occur in January or February, according to Facilities Director Bill Bishop. But Bishop adds that thousands of feet of older water lines still lie beneath much of the campus, leaving some hope for students anticipating an unexpected vacation day.

Park Tudor appears on Ukrainian TV website.

New look for the PT website

Have you noticed the new look for the

Park Tudor website? The site design was updated in August to enable us to prominently feature photo slide shows and videos that let you “See Us in Action” every day, and to make it easier to find information by consolidating pages and eliminating ones that were not frequently viewed. The new design also incorporates visual elements of our campus, such as the bricks and stones of Foster Hall. Coming later this fall: a new “blog” by our student ambassadors that will provide a taste of life at Park Tudor for prospective students. Students in Mrs. Laura Gellin’s English III AP class last year acted as “consultants” in the process by providing input and research on the elements that students look for in a website. Their mothers, who participated in the project during Upper School Mothers’ Morning last spring, also provided suggestions.

Park Tudor on Ukrainian TV?

Yes, it’s true! A Ukrainian news crew

visited Park Tudor on September 2 to do a story on the decline in cursive writing for the Ukrainian INTER news agency. They produced a report featuring Russel & Mary Williams Learning Project Director Dr. Scott Hamilton, Lower School Director Debbie Dominguez, and fourth- and

fifth-grade students. The news agency decided to visit Park Tudor after reading a transcript of an interview Dr. Hamilton gave over the summer with Indianapolis’ WISH-TV on the disappearance of cursive writing from the list of Indiana state educational standards. You can view the story at podrobnosti.ua, but unless you’re fluent in Ukrainian, you might want to turn to Dr. Hamilton’s Learning Project Blog post (http://blogs.parktudor.org/learningproject) on the subject of cursive handwriting, which continues to be taught at Park Tudor.

AP Scholar, National Merit honors

M

ore than 100 Park Tudor students and alumni have earned AP Scholar Awards for their performance on last year’s Advanced Placement exams. Ten students – nine from the Class of 2011 and one current senior – have earned the College Board’s highest possible recognition as National Scholars. To qualify for this achievement, students must earn a score of 4 or higher on a five-point scale on all AP Exams taken, and scores of 4 or higher on eight or more of these exams. This year’s National Scholars are: Class of 2011—Samuel Clarke, Morgan Essex, Erin Hoffman, Michael Lenke, Richard Ni, Iacopo Santini, Jeffrey Shen, Nolan Smith and Tommaso Verderame; Class of 2012—Rebecca Chen. Samuel Clarke ’11 also earned the State AP Scholar award, which is granted to one male and one female in each state

with scores of 3 or higher on the greatest number of AP exams, and then the highest average score on all AP exams taken. Samuel scored 5 on 16 AP exams. Additionally, 36 Park Tudor students were named AP Scholar with Distinction, 22 were recognized as AP Scholars with Honor, and 43 earned AP Scholar recognition. The average exam score for Park Tudor AP Scholars was 4.18. • Five seniors have been named Semifinalists in the 2012 National Merit Scholarship Program: Rebecca Chen, Ted Cho, Nina Roesner, Maddy Vonderohe and Joey Whitaker. Semifinalists represent less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors and include the highest-scoring entrants in each state. They join approximately 16,000 Semifinalists nationwide and have an opportunity to continue in the competition to become National Merit Finalists, which will be announced next spring. • This summer two additional members of the Park Tudor Class of 2011 were named recipients of National Merit Scholarships. Caroline Clark was offered the college-sponsored National Merit Arizona State University Scholarship, while Erin Hoffman was offered the National Merit Michigan State University Scholarship. About 8,400 National Merit Scholarship winners nationwide are chosen from a group of approximately 15,000 finalists; four of the winners were from Park Tudor in 2011.

PT hosts state Latin Day

Park

Tudor’s Latin Club hosted the Indiana Junior Classical League’s Fall Latin Day on October 8. Nearly 200 Latin students and teachers representing 15 schools from throughout the state gathered at PT to celebrate the Classics. Former Park School Latin teacher and catapult expert Dr. Bernard Barcio provided the keynote address. (Alumni from the early 1960s may remember that while he was a teacher at Park School, Dr. Barcio initiated a catapultbuilding competition that was covered on “The Today Show.”) Thirty Park Tudor students attended the event, where Head of School Dr. Matthew Miller made remarks about his study of the Classics. The day included general assemblies, seminars, a classical-themed scavenger hunt, togas, and a marshmallow catapult competition. The day was organized by the Indiana Junior Classical League Executive Board, including Caroline Tucker ’13 and Latin Teacher Clifford Hull. Caroline, who this year is serving as the state president of the Indiana Junior Classical League, represented Park Tudor at the 58th annual National Junior Classical League Convention in July at Eastern Kentucky University.

• Junior Neha Anand participated this summer in a pediatric HIV study conducted for the Indiana University Kenya Program. The study team, led by IU School of Medicine Assistant Professor of Pediatrics Dr. Rachel Vreeman, reviewed scientific studies about telling children their HIV status, analyzed how many children know their HIV status, processes used to tell children in low- and middle-income countries their HIV status, the barriers to disclosure and the impact of disclosure on the patients’ outcomes. The study found that though caregivers worry about child disclosure having a negative effect and few parents disclose, studies suggest there are positive effects for children once they learn their HIV status. The study was presented to an audience of international HIV researchers and pediatricians at both the International Workshop on Pediatric HIV and the International AIDS Society meeting, both of which were held this summer in Rome, Italy.

Chinese students, teachers visit PT

Park Tudor hosted two delegations from

schools in China this fall, giving their teachers and students a glimpse at an American school and sharing their culture with our community.

Nine teachers from Tianjin Weishan Lu High School in China visited on October 14. After sitting in on Upper School classes, the delegation had an informal discussion of independent and public schools in the United States with Peter Kraft, associate head of school for academic affairs, and exchanged gifts with Head of School Matthew Miller. Students in Caroline Lee-Thompson’s Chinese language class thanked the delegation for their visit by singing a song in Chinese, and teachers then taught the students how to do some tai-chi poses and make Chinese knots. Eighteen students and three teachers from Tiánjiābīn Middle School in Shanghai visited Park Tudor on August 25, lunching in Clowes Commons with students in PT’s Chinese language classes. PT students Catherine Mytelka ’13 and Will Davis ’12 studied Chinese for one week this summer at Tiánjiābīn Middle School along with some students from Westlane Middle School. The non-profit organization Chinese Education Connection, which develops education connections between the U.S. and China, sponsored the visits. Park Tudor is exploring ways to build long-term relationships with the group in order to further enhance our Chinese language program.

Andy Sharpless, CEO of Oceana, a

Visiting Artist Series introduced

How does an artist create a work of art?

Park Tudor’s Visual Arts Department is hosting an exciting new series of art exhibitions and visiting artist lectures this year that enables students, parents and the community to interact with artists of local and national reputation and learn more about the creative process. We invite everyone to the final presentation in the series on Friday, January 13 at 6 p.m. in the Upper School Lecture Hall. Lesley Baker, a ceramic artist who works with both sculptural and functional forms, will exhibit and discuss her work. She is an assistant professor at the Herron School of Art and Design whose ceramic pieces have been exhibited across the U.S. and internationally. A reception in the Leffler Gallery will follow. Admission is free; however, please call the Fine Arts Office at 317/415-2705 to reserve seating, as space is limited. Other artists in the series have included: • Casey Roberts, who visited in August. An Indianapolis artist, Roberts creates paintings with a photochemical process known as cyanotype. His work illustrates fantastic landscapes that represent nature’s subtle way of dealing with the peculiar aspects in its relationship with mankind. • Emily Clark, a Midwestern artist and theatrical milliner who has worked in London for famed milliner Philip Treacy, talked in October about her hats and the detailed process involved in creating them.

Fine Arts honors • Freshman Yuri Ikeyama’s photograph “Sunkissed Umbrella” is one of only 54 student works of art from throughout the nation selected by the U.S. Department of Education to be included in a yearlong exhibition at its Washington, DC headquarters. The exhibition is an outgrowth of last year’s National Scholastic Art & Writing Competition. Yuri’s photo (featured in the Summer 2011 issue of The Phoenix) was awarded a Gold Medal in last spring’s contest. Her work was displayed in New York City in June as part of a national celebration held at Carnegie Hall.

• Senior Drew Links performed on the piano at the Shell Lake Wisconsin Arts Center’s final jazz improvisation and combo concert on July 8. The concert was a culmination of a week-long Jazz Improvisation and Combo camp, where participants received instruction from professional jazz musicians from across the nation on improvisation, instrument master classes, jazz history and more.

Upper School presents “The Crucible”

Upper School students presented “The

Crucible,” Arthur Miller’s classic 1953 dramatization of the Salem witch trials, on November 5 and 6 in Ayres Auditorium. The play is a timeless favorite of high-school students and drama teachers alike, including director and drama teacher Jerry Grayson. He has directed the play five times and acted in it once; in fact, he directed the last Park Tudor production of “The Crucible” in 1990. Grayson invited alumni cast members of the 1990 production to join him for a cast reunion following the play. Check the upcoming Spring 2012 issue of The Phoenix, or go online at parktudor. org, to see photos of the production.

Students

in Upper School biology teacher Justin Dammeier’s classroom have a new visual inspiration for their study of biology: a wall mural devised and painted by their fellow students. The mural was created by Hannah Klapper ’14 and Emily Mitlak ’14, who wanted to spruce up the room with a science theme. They worked with Upper School art teacher Barb Beattie and Dammeier to design a mural illustrating the key elements of biology they had learned about over the course of the school year. During the summer, the girls enlisted classmates Rachel Bir and Ali Lebovitz to assist with the project. The team used recycled paints to create the mural.

Fall athletic news: State doubles crown; five conference titles By Brad Lennon, Athletic Director Boys Tennis The boys tennis team, led by Coach Dave Heffern, enjoyed another banner season, ending the campaign with an impressive 19-3 record and a trip to the state finals, where they took eventual state champion Carmel down to the wire. Despite the team’s 3-2 loss in the semifinals, senior No. 1 singles player Brendan Tannenbaum advanced to the individual state singles finals with an impressive win over Carmel’s No. 1 player – 6-1, 6-7 (9-7), 6-0. Equally impressive was the performance of our No. 1 doubles team, senior Sam Geier and freshman Dan Rayl, who earned their way to the doubles state finals with their winning match over Carmel’s top doubles team. Sam and Dan went on to win the doubles crown, the third pair in school history to do so. Brendan placed second in the singles tournament. In addition to state tournament play that included sectional, regional and semistate championships, the boys won the school’s fifth consecutive Indiana Crossroads Conference (ICC) title, sweeping the field in all five matches. Girls Golf The girls golf team concluded another successful season, capturing its second consecutive ICC conference championship and advancing to the regional round of the state tournament after finishing second in sectional play. Senior Brooke Hasler won conference individual honors for the second year in a row. Brooke was named to the all-conference team, along with fellow senior teammates Claire Gerwig and Courtney Fehsenfeld. The 2011 season concluded one of the more successful three-year periods in the history of girls golf at Park Tudor. Over the last two seasons, the girls, under the tutelage of Coach Eli Salatich, compiled an impressive 25-2 regular season record, representing the best two-year stint in the history of the program. Along with Brooke, Claire and Courtney, Coach Salatich bid farewell to seniors Rebecca Chen and Reilly Martin as well. Junior Lauren Talbert was also instrumental in the team’s success through the course of the season.

Cross Country Coach Mike Penington welcomed a relatively large number of young but enthusiastic runners to this year’s cross country team. Nineteen boys and girls toughed out the early-season practices and meets that saw temperatures soar into the 90s on several occasions, adding to the already challenging task of running a 5K race. At the conference meet in early October, the girls captured another ICC conference championship for Coach Penington. Taking allconference honors were Maya Vance ’12, Katelynn Kyker ’14 and Hannah Klapper ’14. The boys finished sixth in the conference meet with a line-up comprised of many first- and second-year runners. Top runners for the girls most of the season were seniors Maya Vance and Christine Lucas, along with sophomore Katelynn Kyker. Freshman Jessica Palmer showed promise at the start of the season; however, a bout of pneumonia sidelined her for about three weeks. On the boys side, seniors Corey Brown and Austin Kyker, and sophomore Ryan Betz consistently recorded the team’s best times. Football The boys of the gridiron concluded the regular season with a 2-7 record. Their lone victories were over conference opponents Beech Grove and Lapel. The football team played one of the most difficult schedules in the state for a 2A team. Five opponents were ranked in the top 10 in the state polls

during the course of the season, with four of those teams finishing the season with a combined win-loss record of 32-4. Injuries also plagued the football team early and often. In a four-week stretch, the Panthers played without our starting quarterback, halfback, wide receiver, kick returner, defensive backs, linemen and linebacker. However, the boys persevered each week, often overcoming difficult odds presented by injuries and having to play shorthanded. The Panthers opened sectional play with a 45-30 win over Cascade, but ended their season in the sectional semifinal with a loss to South Putnam. Boys Soccer The boys soccer team ended a successful season with an 11-5-2 record after losing to Guerin Catholic in the sectional final. In the opening game of the state tourney, Park Tudor topped Bishop Chatard, 3-0, avenging an earlier regular season 0-0 tie with the Trojans. Coach Bob Stigler’s team did, however, capture the ICC conference championship, going 5-1 in conference play, losing a heartbreaker to Scecina for their only blemish in ICC play. Congratulations to seniors Andoni Alanis-Cue, David Dunbar, John Fisher and Nevin Joseph, and the rest of the team on a great season. Girls Soccer The girls team captured a share of the conference championship, finishing with a 4-1 record. Their lone ICC loss came at

the hands of Lutheran. In sectional play, the girls made a valiant run to the championship game, beating Cardinal Ritter in the opener, only to fall to eventual regional champion Covenant Christian in the final, 1-0. Congratulations to seniors Sarah Cohn, Caroline Cox, Emma Skeels, Emily Spurgeon and Lauren St. Clair, and the rest of the girls on another triumphant season. Volleyball Coach Sarah Steele’s squad finished an up-and-down regular season with a respectable 12-9 record. The girls knocked off Pendleton Heights and Lawrence Central in the competitive PT Invitational, only to fall short to Warren Central the same day. In conference matches, the volleyball team finished 3-3, good enough for third place. Park Tudor took top honors at the Heritage Christian Invitational, knocking off the host Eagles and the Marion Giants. In the Marion County tournament, the girls defeated Speedway in the opener, only to lose in the second round to a tough Franklin Central squad. The team captured the sectional crown with a three-game sweep over Heritage Christian. The regional round brought fierce competition from Union County, as it came down to the final points in the fifth game, but it was Union who claimed the trophy in the end.

Lacrosse coach wins state award

Boys lacrosse coach Tim Clark received

the 2011 Reverend Charles Williams Award from Indiana Sports Corporation and Indiana Black Expo on October 11. Clark, cofounder of the Indiana Youth Lacrosse Association, president of the Indiana Chapter of US Lacrosse and a longtime volunteer coach, was the first minority selected to serve on the US Lacrosse Executive Board and chairs the US Lacrosse Board Task Force on Diversity and Inclusion. Over the past six years, Clark has conducted several

• We welcome Emily Hammer as our new girls lacrosse coach. She replaces Candi Parry, who is moving out of state. Since 2005 Hammer has been head women’s lacrosse coach at Whittier College, where she rebuilt the program from top to bottom, implementing academic programs and coaching the first two IWLCA All-America recipients and the first four regional AllAmericans in Whittier women’s lacrosse history. She also coached the girls lacrosse team at Andover High School in Andover, MA, which had its most successful season in the school’s history as a state semifinalist. As a lacrosse player at Denison University, where the team was ranked in the top 15 in the nation, she made three NCAA tournament appearances and won three NCAC Conference Championships.

Athlete honors • Senior basketball player Paul Bayt has committed to Manhattan College. Paul started on Park Tudor’s Class 2A state championship team as a junior, averaging 7.7 points. He shot 38 percent from the 3-point line, and it was his outside shooting that attracted the Manhattan coaches, according to Coach Ed Schilling. Meanwhile, sophomore Troy Spears has committed to the University of New Mexico. Last year, he averaged 7.0 points and 3.2 rebounds. • Freshman Dwayne Gibson has been selected for recognition in the official record book “The Best Players of AAU (Amateur Athletic Union)” for 2011. Dwayne has participated in year-round AAU basketball continuously since the second grade. He has played for various teams over the years and currently plays for Indiana Elite Diesel.

Annual Report Fall 2011 Park Tudor School

Dear Park Tudor Friends, Over the past six months, the transition for my family from getting to Indianapolis and Park Tudor School to really being here has been an exciting one. I believe our transition has been made easier because of the good people and students who create the Park Tudor community. The focus on building community, led by my predecessor Doug Jennings, has given us the framework needed to make the necessary investments in human capital that will lead to exceptional 21st-century learning. Park Tudor is an extraordinary educational institution because of the many dedicated volunteers, faculty, administration and staff who are determined to help our school and our students succeed. It is the efforts of these groups that help our students to succeed and to become local and global citizens—ready and willing to accept challenges and implement solutions. I extend a very warm thank you to all who helped to make the 2010-2011 school year a success. I encourage you to read through this Annual Report, where you will find the names of more than 1,000 Park Tudor parents, past parents, alumni, grandparents and friends who made contributions to the Annual Fund, Endowment or other special projects and programs in 2010-2011. These gifts, when combined, total nearly $1.8 million. We also are honored by the support of nearly 100 families who made major gifts to the Annual Fund of $1,500 or more. I would be remiss if I did not offer gratitude for the equally vital role that many of you hold—that of volunteer—giving countless hours of your time to the benefit of our students and school. Volunteer support enables our faculty and staff to operate more efficiently to maximize the time they spend with our students in the classroom and on various art and athletic stages. We are fortunate to have volunteers working tirelessly in all areas of our school—for this I say again, “Thank you.” I am happy to report that the 2011-2012 school year is off to an exciting and productive start; we continue to focus on great teaching, questions of 21st-century learning, and implementation of technology as well as our core mission of developing all aspects of children and offering extraordinary opportunities for them to grow. As a community, we will build on last year’s successes to move forward with energy and momentum, offering stimulating educational opportunities to all Park Tudor students. We truly value your support, which makes a profound impact on what we are able to achieve. Sincerely,

Matthew D. Miller Head of School

Words of World Wars I and II: Legacy Initiative publishes fifth volume BY KATHRYN LERCH, SOCIAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT CHAIR AND DIRECTOR OF THE LEGACY INITIATIVE HISTORY PROJECT Americans and foreigners at war—and their wartime memories. Because the Legacy Initiative Project does not want to “let go” of the passing World War II generation, Volume 5 includes some wonderful WWII-era accounts, which represent stories from all points on the compass. To complement these stories, there are some unusual World War I letters. The focus in the new anthology is global; there are diary accounts written from the northernmost reaches of the Arctic to the mountains of China; WWI accounts come from Russia and the United States. The “Director’s Cut” from this volume has been saved as the start of the upcoming Volume 6: “Words of War: Civil War Memories from North and South of the Mason Dixon Line.” The following samples of excerpts from Volume 5 include a variety of accounts—from Russia to England, and from Norway to China. During WWI families stayed more Ernst Heyl’s passport photo and application

Park Tudor’s Legacy Initiative project creates a unique experience for Upper School students to learn about wartime history. Through interviews and historical research, over the past 11 years students have produced a series of books highlighting wartime memories from the American Revolution through the Gulf War. The Legacy Initiative has partnered with the Library of Congress Veterans History Project and the office of Indiana Senator Richard Lugar to document veterans’ oral histories. IUPUI also has joined the project, creating a digital database of Legacy Initiative interviews.

Collectively, the five volumes in the “Words of War: Wartime Memories” series include more than 200 original stories—from the American Revolution to the war in Iraq. All of the volumes have included collections of privately held letters, diaries, oral history accounts and photographs that portray

Dec 29th 1939 145 Banbury Road, Oxford Dear Hilda, Thank you so much for your letter & sympathy. I really think that we all feel calmer now that war has really come & has to be grappled with than we have done for the past two years–never able to make any plans, never able to count on anything–expecting an attack at any moment! As a porter on Exeter Railway Station said to me three days before it began “We’ll have to fight them. We can’t go on like this for the rest of our lives!” And he was quite right! All the same, as you say, those of us who lived through the last war can count the cost! It seems so strange to me having to be more or less a spectator this time after our strenuous days at No 3 Stationary [Hospital]…

closely connected through letters from far-off and exotic places, although the world seemed to be spinning out of control. Ernst Heyl’s letters to his wife, for example, offer a rare glimpse into the intrigue of wartime business and corrupt speculation in 1915 Russia. An excerpt from his letter of May 10th includes distressing news about the sinking of the Lusitania:

The Legacy students continue to compile a collection of stories that tell the story of the Merchant Marine. This volume is dedicated to those men for their unrecognized service during WWII. One individual, Gunner’s Mate 3/c William Jackson, served on the City of Omaha and noted details of his perilous journey in his diary, when he sailed from Philadelphia to Murmansk, Russia early in the summer of 1942. Jackson probably concluded after this trip that there was not enough money or service medals to make this dangerous mission worth the risk, but many Mariners did take the risk and thousands lost their lives doing so. An excerpt from Jackson’s diary on May 27, 1942, illustrates some of the dangers encountered: The German Bastards really raised some hell today. Four of our ships bombed and one torpedoed. The Commodore and the little Russian were hit on No. 1 hatch but they finally

…The news of the sinking Friday of the beautiful LUSITANIA with all those lives fairly prostrated all the English [and] Americans here. The Russians as usual are not much moved about it. The revulsion against the Germans for such fiendishness so uncalled for–is a fury of feeling…What can Germany be thinking of [and] what will the United States do–are the two most repeated questions...If the present situation continues around England, I will return direct from Bergen [and] Christiania to New York… A little more than 20 years later, the world is at war again. For most Americans the war began following the attack on Pearl Harbor. For the citizens of Europe, it really began in 1939. Helen Croker, a former WWI nursing sister residing in Oxford, England shares her thoughts with a former nursing colleague, who lives in Maine:

Although his typed 75-page account was serialized in a newspaper in Norway following the war, it has been edited for inclusion in our book. His story is one of hope and survival. Landøy was a great storyteller. He was initially incarcerated with fellow Norwegians near Bergen, then transferred numerous times to various German labor camps in France and Germany. He shares his first impressions on imprisonment in Norway:

got the fire out and saved the ship. The bombing started at 1215 A.M. for about 2 hours. At 1025 all hell broke loose they stayed with us all day until 845 P.M…. The Legacy Initiative is especially thankful to community donors who have been generous in sharing their collections. As a result, it was possible to copy and transcribe nearly 100 letters belonging to the family of First Lieutenant Bruce R. Handeyside, whose 10th Armored Division was trapped by the Germans at Bastogne, Belgium during the battle of the Bulge. In this particular letter from December 7, 1944, there is no indication of the trouble heading his direction:

Pearl Harbor Day, 1944 Dear Virginia— …Am at present “Somewhere in France”… I had 2 baths in 2 days this past week. That was a real treat being the first in a month. I don’t know when I will get my next one as we have moved since then. All we lack is electricity, running water [and] fuel for the stove–but that is real common in France. We asked the man of the house, “ou est le lavabo?” and he brought us a pot to the bedroom. Christmas will soon be here. Sorry I have had no opportunity to do Christmas shopping, but will make up for it next year… I would be very happy if you would send me some fudge, cookies or pop corn sometime… Another fabulous reminiscence came to our project thanks to alum Lee Keller ’09 and her Norwegian relatives. During the German occupation of Norway, Sverre Landøy, his father, and other

This feeling of unity amongst the prisoners cut right across pre-war social barriers. In earlier days there had been a clear social distinction between fishermen and smallholders on the one hand, and professional people–doctors, lawyers and so on–on the other hand. At Ulven we were all thrown in together in one big melting pot. The unity was also responsible for a complete absence of escape attempts. It was made crystal clear to everybody that any escape would lead to much harsher conditions for those left behind. Following the debut of the Legacy Project’s Volume IV in May 2009, another donor lent the project a remarkable pair of diaries, as well as photos and souvenirs brought back from China by the late Sergeant Jack McBride. McBride was shot down over Japanese-held China in late 1944 and rescued by Mao Tse Tung’s 8th Route Army. He documented his five-month trek across China in his diary. McBride was eventually repatriated to American forces. He penciled the following comment in his diary:

Jan 20/45 Saturday This afternoon at 3:30 we went and met Chairman “Mao tse dung” had our pictures taken with him and ate supper. He told of his position and the 8th route army. We like him very much and feel sorry for him that we can’t do something to help him. According to an early review, Volume V merits a “High V.” Similarly, the dozens of students involved in this newest volume merit accolades for their efforts in compiling more than 20 riveting wartime stories. Their dedication to research, their skill in writing and editing, identifying supporting photos at the National Archives, and designing the dust jacket have made this anthology possible.

“Words of War: Volume V” will be available in early December at a cost of $24.95. To purchase a copy of Volume V or previous volumes in the series, please contact Kathryn Lerch at klerch@parktudor.org. Volume 1 is available for $15, while Volumes 2-4 are $20 each.

The organic revolution BY JENNIFER BURNS Jennifer Burns ’08 is a student at Davidson College, a liberal-arts college near Charlotte, North Carolina.

In this place, hitchhiking is not only legal, but mandated. Pictures of Che Guevara appear on every building and his quotes serve as the only billboards. My passport is never stamped. The streets look like a vintage car show. The mangos are delicious, all five varieties. We have mojitos for breakfast and cigars for dessert. Outside of the city, nearly every family has chickens and a goat. Everyone asks me, “Are you Canadian?” No, I am American. Yes, an American in Cuba. In early June I had the opportunity to travel to Cuba to study the country’s food system, one of the best working models of a local and sustainable food system in the world. I traveled with a dynamic group of 17 people through an organization called Food First, a think tank and policy group in Oakland, CA working to eliminate hunger by increasing food sovereignty.* In terms of agriculture, Cuba’s local and sustainable food system means a system in which food is grown with very few, if any, synthetic inputs such as petroleum, pesticides, and genetically modified seeds, and is eaten very close to where it is grown.

32

Historically, Cuba grew sugar and tobacco for export and in exchange imported its food, specifically from the Soviet Union. When the Soviet Union fell, the U.S. tightened the embargo (or blockade, as the Cubans call it), and the people of Cuba starved. The average daily caloric intake dropped by a third—from 2,908 calories to 1,863—causing the majority of people to lose approximately 20 pounds. As a result, food production became a primary goal of the Cuban government and people took the task of feeding themselves into their own hands. (The evidence of this is pervasive: nearly every house has at least one mango tree in its yard and a half a dozen chickens or so running around!) Because of impending starvation and—worse yet for the revolutionary government—rebellion, government policies redistributed land and supported agriculture in every way possible. Cuba also had imported all of its farm inputs such as fertilizer, pesticides, tractors, tractor parts, and petroleum from the Soviet Union. So, this new food system was built without any of these. * Food sovereignty defines food as a basic human right that should be accessed in a safe, nutritious, and culturally appropriate manner. In order to fulfill this right the following are often necessary: Agrarian reform to ensure ownership for those, especially women, that work the land, protection of natural resources through sustainable farming methods, domestic self-sufficiency, fair treatment of food producers, and a fair, democratic voice for all people.

I was fascinated by the Cuban food system as a result of my obsession with the American food system and our food culture. I have always loved the pleasures of taste and been awed by the power of meals to communicate and build relationships, but more recently I have begun to approach food from a more varied perspective. While a communal table and tasty food are still the roots of my passion, I have expanded their definition through academic learning, working on farms, and striving to change the food system at Davidson College. My definition of taste is now determined equally by a food’s manner of production and origin as it is by the five taste elements of sweet, salty, bitter, sour and umami. And the people I value when eating are not only those sitting next to me, but all those affected by my food choices—growers, producers, and the hungry. My food-focused academic career began when I created my own major. While it’s called environmental studies, it is heavily focused on food-related topics and includes courses such as Food of the Ancient Mediterranean; Food Literature; and Globalization, Food, and the Environment. In addition to these explicitly food-related classes, I have been able to work food into seemingly unrelated classes— like Spanish and environmental law—by writing final research papers on the famed Spanish restaurant El Bulli (arguably the best restaurant in the world at one time), and the legal debate surrounding raw milk. Additionally, I studied abroad for one semester in Costa Rica at the School for Field Studies, where we studied Sustainable Development through natural resource management and the use of political and economic means to achieve environmental protection. I’ve also had the opportunity to work at farms, an even more eye-opening experience. I worked at Trader’s Point Creamery, an

Jennifer Burns at work during her trip to Cuba, where her travel group volunteered time to help weed land that was being transitioned to food production.

The breathtaking Viñales Valley, in Pinar del Río, Cuba, designated a Cultural and World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The landscape features unique mountains characterized by singular knolls with round summits and rare shapes called mogotes (hummocks). Jennifer says, “This valley is known to grow the best tobacco in the world thanks to the climate and soil composition. The farm in which I’m standing in this photo functions under the principles of agroecology, meaning that they consider their farm an ecosystem of its own and thus must understand the holistic nature of ecology. For example, they raise rabbits off scraps from the garden; these bunnies in turn provide fertilizer and later meat for the family.”

award-winning organic dairy in Zionsville, Indiana, where I did everything from making ice cream to selling at farmers’ markets, where I was able to introduce people to new products, and more importantly, the implications of their food choices. Their dollars purchased food that was produced in harmony with the land and supports their local community. Most recently, I have done menu consulting for The Loft restaurant at Trader’s Point on current food trends and politics. The food movement has grown so quickly and through so many different avenues that there are many terms and even more interpretations and connotations for these words. I helped to ensure we were communicating exactly what we wanted to. In a less ritzy endeavor, I headed to Brown’s Valley, Indiana to work at Lone Pine Farm, a sustainable meat farm operated by Adam Moody of Moody Meats. Adam is not a conventional farmer. He believes in taking care of the land, ensuring its future. His farm is one of fewer than five percent in the country that does not use genetically modified soy or its partner, the weed-killing chemical Roundup. Not only does Adam believe in environmental sustainability, he also preaches economic sustainability. One day while I was purchasing meat at Adam’s full-service butcher shop on Indy’s northwestside, he told me, “If you want to do anything in the food world, you have to learn where your food comes from.” So that’s what I did. Everything you can imagine about traditional farm labor, this was it. I rose before sunrise to walk to the outhouse and prepare for a day of labor in the hot sun. (We tried to get the brutal work, like weeding the soy crop by hand, done before the sun came up.) The rest of our hours were

filled with feeding the chickens, cattle, and sheep; grinding their feed; mowing; lots of fixing—fences, tractors, combines; and even slaughtering! Talk about learning where your food comes from! After that wild ride, I opted for the other extreme and began working during the summer with Growing Places Indy in its Slow Food garden in White River State Park. The first summer I learned the techniques of urban growing and began to learn about food deserts, local entrepreneurial efforts, and the value of giving back to your community. This past summer I worked with this group again on policy issues and worked toward using urban gardens as a tool to improve the health of our urban poor. All of these adventures in our Hoosier state have been eyeopening, but I am only home three months of the year, and that leaves nine months to try to make an impact at Davidson College. Maybe it was that freshman 15 or maybe it was my conscience, but I decided to change Davidson’s food system. During the spring of

my sophomore year, a friend and I created an independent study project that laid the groundwork. We conducted student surveys, got to know every farmer within 100 miles, worked to re-source the food Davidson orders to more sustainable producers, created a tiered purchasing guide, and organized special events at which we sold local, grass-fed burgers in our made-to-order café. (We sold out in two hours, having sold more burgers than the café normally sells in two days.) And this was only the beginning. As my friend was graduating and I was going abroad, we started a Food Club to carry on our mission. While I definitely had the passion, I still had much to learn about the intricate world of food systems. In Cuba, I learned that things are rarely straightforward. I met a woman and her family one night when friends and I went for a walk in the Cuban countryside. We stopped outside the gate of her home to comment on the basketball-size mangos and the beautiful flowers growing over the

“We hiked through fields of nearly every crop imaginable and stopped to learn from the farmers. This woman made us coffee from beans she roasted herself (and, as you can see, ground) while her husband rolled a cigar for us, teaching us the best technique. While it seems quaint and idealistic, we were on a tourist trail. These people didn’t get paid to be available for tourists, but were prepared to sell us things like coffee, cigars, fruit, etc. after we asked questions and they gave a demonstration.”

A tobacco farmer rolls a famed Cuban cigar. Jenn says, “He taught us about the five types of leaves used to create a cigar: the first for aroma, the second to ensure it burns evenly; another that holds together the other inner leaves (this is the sign of a good cigar); the fourth component is the leaf that holds these previous parts together; and finally the wrapper leaf, which must be perfect in color and texture, ensuring the perfect finish. He gave us a tour of his field and drying house, a beautiful palm-leafthatched barn with eucalyptus drying racks.”

fence. We heard chickens chatting in the background, and the sun was setting in this idyllic spot. The matron of the home invited us in for some mangos. Just as their heavenly juice touched our lips, we suddenly became part of what appeared to be a well-rehearsed play. The women grabbed our hands and told us they had nothing. “Yes, we have food,” they said, “everyone in Cuba has food, but we have no clothes, we wear rags, my daughter cannot find makeup, my grandson has no toys,” and the list went on. We agreed we would return to our hotel and gather those things we had brought to donate, as I assume this woman knew well. This reaffirmed how food, the political system, and the economic system are all interconnected. The allocation of resources to food production in Cuba also left me scratching my head. The minute amount of pesticides the government can get its hands on is allotted to potato production. Cuba has dozens of other tubers that are meant to grow in this tropical part of the world and would be far less susceptible to pests, but people want potatoes at every meal. At one meal alone we were served mashed potatoes, French fries, and boiled potato coins! While Cuba may be a sustainable farmer’s dream, it is no culinary delight. This is a fried meat and potatoes kind of place. The most disheartening contradiction was that in this mecca of sustainable farming, the Minister of Agriculture told me that the country would use genetically modified foods, if it could. They would douse their plants in chemicals, if they could. They would create a conventional food system like every other country of the world, if they could. This revelation led me to want to learn more about the interplay between food desire and food need. Davidson’s Food Club has been grappling with these sorts of intricacies while working to build the path of a sustainable food future. We have initiated some significant changes on campus. For example, a local, grass-fed burger and a sausage sandwich made with sausage from local, pasture-raised hogs are now permanent menu items in Davidson’s made-to-order café. We offer cooking classes, show movies, host forums, and invite speakers – the activist Raj Patel, author of “Stuffed and Starved: The Hidden Battle for the World Food System,” visited in October. We operate a beautiful wooden cart with a red awning that serves as a portable farmer’s market, bringing local, fresh produce and baked goods to students at market price. We have been working with our Dining Services Department to support the purchase of food from sustainable producers. We have planted large gardens that provide our dining halls with herbs and fresh produce. We developed a monthly “local and sustainable” day in my dining hall, when I dress up like a cow (to raise awareness of the different foods available and why that mat-

ters) and a significant chunk of the meal is sourced from small, local, sustainable farms. Most importantly, we are working to foster future gastronomes, giving students the information, skills and confidence to make a difference in their food system. Currently I am working on my thesis, the topic of which is whether Davidson should transition to a more local and sustainable food system. Not only will I look at the economic realities of these changes, but also how Davidson could be a major player in the sustainable future of our region. This has all been a lot of work, and even frustrating at times, but to know my work is making a difference inspires me to keep at it. At a recent public event, Mike, the farmer from whom Davidson buys its local and sustainable beef, pointed at me in response to a question and said, “…thanks to this little lady, Davidson College is becoming one of our largest customers. It has made a difference in our life and ensured the economic sustainability of our livelihood.” How does our experience in North Carolina compare to what’s happening in Cuba? Growers within the urban area of Havana provide the city of Havana with all of its produce. I could see,

hear and smell industry while I stood in a field of mint; this is the land of mojitos. In the countryside, oxen plow fields, every family owns half a dozen chickens, and small fields produce something other than corn and soy. The government supports and facilitates efficient agriculture that provides food for its people. The land is treated with respect and ensured to produce for years to come. The meats are free of hormones and antibiotics; the animals see the light of day and touch grass. The produce is free of synthetic chemicals. The entire system is self-sufficient; Cubans’ food is not dependent on oil prices in distant corners of the globe. They are dependent only on their own compost pile and manual labor. Cuba’s food system is the world’s greatest experiment in sustainable, beyond-organic agriculture, and it seems to be working. While Cuba may one day import more synthetic pesticides and genetically modified seed, it will never completely shift to a conventional system because that would mean the end of its food culture and many livelihoods. Furthermore, many farmers see the economic potential of their sustainable practices. One farmer told me he hopes the blockade is dropped so he can sell his more-thanorganic produce to the U.S., where we pay significantly higher prices for this type of food. While Cuba may have the most sustainable food system in the world, the Cuban agricultural system is by no means idealistic or beautiful. It was born out of a need to survive. Out of necessity, Cubans are growing sufficient amounts of food while using practices that heal the land, as opposed to stripping it of nutrients. Unlike the American good-food movement, in Cuba there are no connotations of good or evil surrounding farming practices, and there are no positive externalities like fighting childhood obesity, saving our waterways, ensuring the future of arable land, and supporting your neighbors and the local economy. A visit to Cuba taught me that a working, sustainable food system is more important than an ideal food system—an important realization in my food career. A bathtub can produce tilapia just as well as a state-of-the art pond. A garden bed will grow lettuce whether it is delineated with bricks or rum bottles. I don’t know what the future of the American food system will look like, but I can tell you that I intend to be in the middle of it, working to make it better for all.

Food Field Report Sure it sounds glamorous— tasting trips throughout Italy, nine-course lunches, visits to wineries—but earning a master’s degree at the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Bra, Italy can be hard work, too, according to Rachael Hoover ’04. Hoover, who graduated from Emory University in 2009, hopes to spend a year soaking up all the food knowledge she can to bring back to the family business in Indianapolis. Her mother, Martha Hoover, is founder of the local restaurant group, Patachou Inc., which operates Café Patachou at five Indianapolis locations, as well as two French-inspired Petit Chou restaurants and the Italian pizza restaurant Napolese. Rachael recently shared some of her impressions while in the midst of a school trip to Greece: What’s a typical day? Class from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with an hour lunch break in the middle. It can be quite tedious to sit for six hours of lecture, especially for some of the more dry material like food technology. But all of the classes are really interesting; some change the way I look at the world and my place in it. During travel periods, we visit producers and learn about local foods and traditions. These happen about once each month to a different country or region in Italy. It doesn’t sound like it, but these can be extremely hard on the body and mind as we are constantly learning and eating, trying to pack as much as possible into seven days. Today, for example, we visited a saffron producer in the morning, a winery before lunch and had a nine-course lunch of all mushrooms, accompanied by a lecture on mushrooms and the art of foraging. What are you eating? I’m eating everything that I can! Seriously, I try to take advantage of all the opportunities I have to taste things unique to the area, especially things that I won’t be able to find back in the States. When in Bra, I’m cooking a lot: food from the markets, fruits and vegetables that are in season, fresh pasta and sauces, etc. When I eat out it is almost entirely Piemontese [from the Piedmont region of Italy]. Some specialties are Bra sausage (eaten raw), sliced veal with tuna sauce, tajarin (a long flat spaghetti-esque noodle), rabbit, etc. At home, I eat mainly vegetables and grains. We’ve just

started making soups as the weather cools down with ingredients like squash, leeks and beans. We cook all the time—dinner and something for lunch the next day. Lunches are often pitch-in style at school and can get quite raucous, especially if it’s after a wineor beer-tasting class. If you were to bring back a food item to the United States, what would it be? It would be raw milk cheeses (especially mozzarella) and French butter (I can’t just say one and they are related). And the pasta is too good to leave behind. What, if anything, has surprised you? I didn’t expect to come to Italy and change the way I eat. I thought everything I learned would simply reaffirm my existing food philosophy. I’ve always been extremely aware of what I eat, both regarding quality and locality. However, this school has totally changed the way I eat and think about food: sourcing, distribution, essentially all aspects of the global food system and all of the people in the world affected by it. I now eat almost no meat or fish (I indulge on special occasions) because of environmental implications and am very careful about how and where I buy my food to ensure that the farmer receives a fair percentage of the consumer dollar. I have also rediscovered the love of cooking, especially regarding the conviviality found over great food at a table with friends. [In Bra] it takes a horribly long time to get all the ingredients I need to cook and an even longer time to actually make my meals, so it becomes imperative to enjoy the process and the end product. Food stimulates relationships and conversations while we consume it. It should do the same as it is produced, bought, and prepared.

The Ladies in White are a group of Cuban women who have been peacefully protesting the imprisonment of their husbands, fathers and other male relatives. These men were imprisoned as a part of the black spring in March 2003. They are journalists, human-rights activists, and democracy activists, all imprisoned on the basis that they had accepted aid from the U.S. Government and thus were agents of the U.S. Their sentences range from 6-28 years. In our conceptual art piece, there are 65 white mariposa lilies growing out of rocks that are placed in the shape of a dress. The number 65 is representative of the 65 political prisoners in Cuba that have yet to be freed. The flowers represent the ladies in white, who like the mariposa lilies, have grown out of harsh, repressive circumstances and still managed to maintain their dignity and grace. Coincidentally, the mariposa lily is the national flower of Cuba and represents, purity, rebellion, and independence. The yellow on the inside of the flowers, while a true representation of the flower, also represents the inner light of these women as they persevere against all odds. The title, “Primavera Blanca,” translates to “white spring.” This is a message that while the Cuban government may have silenced their husbands, brothers and fathers in the black spring, now it is time for their ladies in white to be heard around the world as they deliver their message of peace and determination.

Primavera Blanca New this year at Park Tudor is an Upper School Art Seminar course developed by Visual Arts Coordinator Heather Teets. The class focuses on conceptual art through the development of collaborative projects and critical thinking about art and its place in the world. Seniors Nina Roesner, Ayana Lindsey and Maddy Vonderohe recently created an installation art piece called “Primavera Blanca” inspired by their study of the Cuban Ladies in White movement. Their artists’ statement below describes the conception of their work: The Mariposa lily lives in the midst of a striking contradiction. Its virginal purity is married to a harsh, rocky environment with little water or soil to sustain its growth. It seems a miracle that a flower so delicate and receptive could live in such an intense environment, yet it is exactly here that the Mariposa flourishes with astonishing abundance!

ture financial needs with your philanthropic goals. The process is very rewarding and in some cases, very easy to do. The following are a few examples of the many program options available through Park Tudor’s planned-giving program. Most planned gifts provide substantial tax advantages to the donor as well as create a lasting legacy at Park Tudor School: Bequest Through your will you can give: • A specific sum of money or specific property. • A percentage of your total estate. • All or a percentage of the remainder after all other bequests are satisfied. If you already have written your will, you can create a simple change, called a codicil, to add Park Tudor as a beneficiary. Retirement Plans You can name Park Tudor as a beneficiary of your qualified retirement plan to receive a designated amount or percentage of assets you wish to be used for charitable purposes. Or, if you are 59 ½ years of age, you may make withdrawals (no early withdrawal penalty) to fund your charitable gifts. If you are at least 70 ½ years, you may direct that your mandatory withdrawal amount be used to make a charitable gift on a tax-free basis.

Life Insurance You can name Park Tudor as a beneficiary in an existing life insurance policy or purchase a new policy and designate Park Tudor as the owner of the policy or a beneficiary.

Life Income Gifts These gifts provide a stream of income to you or your designated beneficiary as well as current and future income, capital gains and estate tax benefits. • Charitable Gift Annuity A simple contract between you and Park Tudor whereby you transfer assets to the school and Park Tudor agrees to pay you an income for your lifetime. The income rates are based on your age and are set by the American Council on Gift Annuities. Charitable gift annuities also can be established with the annuity payments directed to another person. In this case, the rates are based on the age of the recipient. • Charitable Remainder Unitrust You transfer assets to a trust and receive an income based on the annual valuation of the trust. The trust can be established for a certain number of years or for your lifetime. At the end of the trust, the assets are transferred to Park Tudor. • Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust This trust functions the same as a charitable remainder unitrust except the income rate is fixed at the creation of the trust. We can work with you and your financial advisor to create the planned gift that best fits your financial circumstances.

Report from the Head great schools are constantly challenging students, both in proactive and reactive ways, and great schools know that one of the greatest outcomes of this investment is the creation of an ethical mindset that is internalized, operationalized in the actions, and embodied in the mission of the school. Park Tudor has a deep and passionate commitment to the development of this sort of capital, and it is one of the most unique aspects of the school. Finally, aspirational capital refers to the hopes and dreams of the young and old as they begin to think about the next step in their growth. Students learn by example, and one of the greatest gifts we can offer is to help them to grow and develop the embryonic vision of personal growth that they have within themselves. As the expression goes, “a rising tide lifts all boats”; great schools lift the expectations and the aspirations of all students, and the shared investment in each other makes the sum of the parts greater than the individual expression. Students learn about extracurricular options that previously were unknown, about colleges not on their radar, and about careers that are only beginning to come into focus. They learn to dream, they watch their classmates matriculate to the next logical step in their development, and they learn to believe that they can accomplish the impossible. There is no price too high for this sort of investment. Park Tudor excels at developing children in all aspects of their maturation and in developing these aspects of human capital. We need to remember that character development, as much as anything, is an important (if not the most important) aspect of our work. I believe wholeheartedly that we are creating the next generation of leaders and that we are privileged to have the honor of developing habits of mind. Whether through Habitat for Humanity, our advising program, or other venues, we need to stay focused on this goal.

Community Capital I believe that kids are motivated to belong and that they desire to be part of something bigger than themselves—teams, clubs, and peer groups are all expressions of this—but just being part of the Park Tudor community is also important to the equation. One of my favorite things about Park Tudor is the way that families are included in the community as partners in the educational process. Our teachers, so many of whom are present outside of the classroom, add greatly to the community. As an educator, I am resolute in my belief that the more contact our faculty have with students and the broader community, the better we are at all aspects of our work and the more nuanced we can be in our understanding of students’ challenges and obstacles to growth. Community is a treasured resource, and we should continue to celebrate both the historical continuity Park Tudor provides and the open and inclusive aspects of this community. Brooks writes: “The only things that work are local, human-to-human immersions that transform the students down to their very beings. Extraordinary schools, which create intense cultures of achievement, work. Extraordinary teachers, who inspire students to transform their lives, work. The programs that work touch all components of human capital.” Good schools have all three aspects of capital, but great schools have them aligned, fully articulated, and fully integrated into all aspects of the experience. Park Tudor is dedicated to developing all three, and Park Tudor is not a good school—it is a great school. I appreciate your support and hope that you agree that there is no greater or more worthwhile investment in the future than in the young generation to whom we will turn over the mantle of leadership.
