This year has been one of incredible moments andTih'spirafioff, As I reflect back, I realize tha t our delightful hummingbirds have become' an integral p a rt of our Lower School community. W hen w e stop to notice the hummingbirds, outside o f the classrooms; and throughout the garden, w e see the b e au ty and the w o n d e r that a single mo ment can hold; These b ra ve little birds remind liS th a t size js net a measure of courage, and they em pow er us to take risks and follow our curiosities; They teach us to savor Out interactions w ith each oth er as they are fleeting, and most of all, they remind us to slow down so th a t w e notice the joy that life offers to ys ea ch and every day. I am grateful to the extraordinary teachers and students w h o have em braced and gu a rd e d these moments; t believe these interactions em body the philosophy of our Lower School, one in which w e value the education of the w h o le child, and I am so’ proud to be a p a rt of this wonderful community.

A fte r graduating from kinger-garden last year, these first graders took their "gardening" skills to a new level this year. They built and maintained their own garden w ith fruits, vegetables, and flowers. Hard work, ge ntle care, and a w hole lot of w atering led to a beautiful garden that the first graders and the rest of th e lo w e r school got to enjoy while a t recess. They also a p pre ciate the variety of tastes from their harvest.

C ongratulations, Seniors! [You w e re a gre at gfass in fifth grade. You w ere creative, frien dly, and alw ays too chatty.

Be the best you can be and enjoy life's adventures. - Mrs. Bippus:
You guys rocked fifth g ra d e and have continued to do so. You w e re a class of mine tha t I will alw ays remember. You had and have such personality and creativity. W e had a blast a t Astro Cam p, lived through all the Lost a t Sea papers, met Preppy the Prepositional Squirrel, crafted an im aginative Shadow Ra d io Play, and survived and thrive d through the M ag azine Project!!!!!

W h a t a show! M ira c le in M u d ville was a w o n d e r ful production held by the middle school students of Phoenix C ountry Day. This p lay p o rtra y e d the lives of tw o simple youngsters in the town of M u d ville; an a ve ra g e town, w ith a ve ra g e people, and an a ve ra g e environment. A fte r a re-occurrence of a deceased librarian, they tw isf time to go back and see their parents as kids w here they discov e r the truth behind all of their parents’ stories. I would describe this p la y as simple yet complete. N o t many props w ere used, and the stage set was just sufficient to com plete the p la y and to set the scene. The am azing actors, w ho set a picture in our minds of the a ve ra g e town, also show the kind of p e o p le tha t lived there. It was by far the best middle school production 1 have ever seen, these actors cle a rly p ra cticed a lot and d e d ica t ed a chunk of their fre e time into memorizing their lines and learning how to move ab ou t the stage. There wasn’t a single slip-up and they obviously knew w h a t they w ere doing and how to run the show. I was honestly am azed by this production and it m ade me hungry for more of the p la y once I learned it was over. I would definitely go see this p la y again, and I hope these students put on another production. Hands down 2 thumbs up!

O n a scale of “Strike Out" to “Grand Slam , I would give A M ir acle In Mudville a “Home Run . The actors emitted an aura of happiness and the unmistakable energy of a PCDS student. Each actor Commits to his ar her role, and makes the play a huge suc cess, enjoyable by any generation from: Student to grandparent. Ashcon Partovi, who plays the character of Casey Banks, dots a phenomenal job of portraying the, Struggles of a child attempting to live up fb t o parents expectations. Along this journey he finds Out that his father, played by Luca Walsh, has reasons lor being the way he is. Towards the end of the play, Casey has an epiph any that, in fact, he wants nothing more than to be like his father. Ashley'© /% who plqys liabile, d o e s e m a p ic e n t fob of « n g exaggerated motions to add q certain amount of excitement to her character. Director Andrea D eiker does a ;antastic job of fielding a delightfU 'osier of players,-and is a a e ta f Ihem ratrncf the ifaoses. So go grab your peanuts and ball caps and sit down on the bench to watch this wonderful play unfold- it s a smash fe !

As p a rt of my job, I get the o p p o rtu n ity to talk a b o u t PCDS w ith pe rspe ctive parents and students—a lot. O fte n the question arises; “W h a t makes PCDS diffe re nt?" O f course there a thousand easily id e n tifia b le traits th a t set this school a p a rt from the rest, but I find myself coming back to a single idea: PCDS cultivates and celeb rates the in d ivid u a l W e as a school are not trying to create a community of like-minded students w ith the same values, assets, o r w ardrobes. Instead, w e see each student as having a singular voice, and our job is to g ive th a t vo ice cla rity, strength, and confidence. In the end, I take g re a t satisfaction th a t this chorus of in dividu al voices inevita b ly finds a harmonious blen d as students w alk across the g ra d u a tion stage in June.

Y e a rb o o k i *
As four long years of ye a rb o o k d ra w to a ciose, |a m left to reflect pn the people, the process and the products w e have produced. I have had rpy share of-late nights, last-minulp p h b h l shoots and hwh.dreds of hours in front of d com puter screen. Even though each year begins w ith a familiar challenge—to create a b o o k that the communify will chensfofor a lifetime, the tasks tha t fill the coming months are quite daunting—hundreds of pages to design. Like, many artists^ i see this, blank canvas as an inviting expanse an o p pcrtun ty to experim ent w ith creativity. Designing a ye a rb o o k is a difficult task that includes bringing together the im probable qualities o f creativity and timelineSs;|My crea tivity contends w ith rigid guidelines and a strict deadline^,AAy creative side wants to let layout ideas com e1through ra w inspiration, while my practical sense needs the pages done by Friday. These past four years I have le arn ed to ba la nce crea tivity w ith the discipline o f punctuality. I hope this year's edition contains the pe rfe ct balance of a rt a n d y fility ^ a y e a rb o o k th a t is beautiful, yet still fulfills its purpose of providing a snapshot of the 2012-2013 school years,for generations id come. I have w orked w ith four d iffe re n t ye a rb o o k staffs. Eacn One has been distinctly different, w ith its o\yn c h a ra cte r and vibe. The Editor-in^Chief has to w o rk w ith arid within th e personality of the'team as 0 w h oie k< eep:ng everyone organized and on Track. M o s t often, it is both exasperating and exhiiaratihg.-with lifefong memories created along the w ay,-from the ^spirited Emily M o ra z a n , to trie fashio.n-d va Shannon M an ie y. to the de d ica te d lauren Cha~en. f be ievc I have truly seen if d ll.ln Addition, w h en next August comes o fo u n c H a m cUrious to see w h a t m y-'label as-an*Editor-in-Chief will be! I would like to extend thanks td m y wpnderTuW e.afbook staff. This y e a rb o o k is an expression of their dedication. I am truly thankful for the am czing'y diverse collection of personalities and talents I have encountered this year. A Special thanks tovisy e M o n e y for his enthusiasm, zeal, and immense,commitment. M/e could not have produced this ye a rb o o k w ithout him. Next y e a r as he takes the reins, I am confident that jr e will create an outstanding, ye a rb o d k filled, with; humjor and beautiful people. !: has b e e n ’ a pleasure to go throughdhis arduous process w ith all of y o tt'-a process th a t includes creativity, focus, humor, loss of sleep, encounters w ith Paradise Valley Police, take-6ut foo d arid the giddiness th a t comes y*?Th la te night deadline a unches. As a reader of this b e a k ,C h a p e :yo'„ ettjpy and cherish tljgi memories CQntained Within for many years to come. Please find time
to appreciate all m e^hard worK'^vested In this y e a rb o o k Each staff member brsSght his or her own talents and creativity to th e protect. The b q c k wcs a b a te d 'By a team of unique indiwdualss A quote by Sam HcsKiris p e rfe ctly describes the feelings of any designer: ‘ A p h o to g ra p h e r w e fttd o a ,so cia lite -p a rty in N e w YorK. As he .entere d the fro n t d o o r, the host said, 1 fo y ® ’y o U r fo ic J iu f© s s th © y 'r e * w Q r id e r fu l;;’-y o u m u s t
have a fantastic cam era.’ He said nothing until dinner was
finished, th e ® 'That' was a wonderful dinner; you must h a ve a te rrific stove.'" As if4s wfth any Creative proces'sVil starts w ith the folents and gifts of individuals, w ith each person adding bis o r her own personal touch. J o q ls may make a job easier, but it is'the artist w ho makes a difference. C e le b ra te the artists you encounter jn your life. If you;do, I believe tw o lives w ill.be enriched. W ith these last t/vords, my jo y m e y b e re at Phoenix C ountry D ay School comes to a close. I would like to thank the school and the entire PCDS community for making the last 14 years absolutely amazing. As I now must say my official “goodbye," I do so w ith the hope th a t our friendships w ilija s t our w h ole lives through. Thank you. Sincerely,
