St. Andrew's Fall Magazine and 2019-2020 Annual Report by St. Andrew's Episcopal School

FALL 2020

MAKE HASTE TO BE KIND Life is short, and we haven’t much time to gladden the hearts of those with whom we walk this Earth. So be swift to love, make haste to be kind.

Philanthropy has never been more essential than now. At St. Andrew’s, our Episcopal Identity calls us to be stalwart in our commitment to supporting each other, especially when faced with the new challenges of today. Help us uphold our mission and commitment to remaining One Pride. This year, we will concentrate our Lions Fund fundraising drive in just two weeks: December 1-4, 2020 and May 17-21, 2021.

Please plan to join in to show the power of collective giving!

Our return to campus in October would not have been possible without the diligent work of our nurses, technology office, or operations team. A tribute to them, and their dedication to making learning happen safely and successfully.

A LETTER FROM OUR HEAD

dear friends, Many of us will empathize with the illustration on the cover of this Fall Magazine. Since COVID disrupted our routines and distanced our lives last winter we all have worked to balance existing responsibilities with new challenges, all with concern for the well-being of ourselves and our loved ones. Even in a community as close and agile as St. Andrew’s, the daily reimagination and implementation of school have at times felt sisyphean. From the moment we moved online last March, our administrators and faculty have responded exceedingly well. We have remade our schedules and harnessed new technologies to keep improving our distance learning program. We have adopted rigorous health protocols and new pedagogies to reopen our campus for hybrid learning. Our ability to adapt — to try new techniques, to develop and share new solutions — has grown dramatically. Our students have also led the way in this resilient remaking of school. Preschoolers — our return-to-campus pioneers — diligently wear their masks and stay “one lion apart” (that’s six feet to you and me) to protect their friends (everyone’s friends in preschool). During distance learning, second-graders turned their homes into personalized design labs, raiding kitchen drawers for salt, flour, and wooden spoons for their experiments on buoyancy. Middle Schoolers doggedly stretch and train along with Mr. Futrovsky, whether he’s physically with them on the fields or coming to them “live” from the fitness center. Upper School students are connecting in new ways with administrators and alumni to promote equity and advocate societal change. And on the first day of on-campus instruction last month, one returning Lion told me she “even enjoyed doing equations in math class.” William James reminded us a century ago: “Life is in the transitions. We can’t ignore these central times of life; we can’t wish or will them away. We have to accept them, name them, mark them, share them, and eventually convert them into fuel for remaking our life stories.” Screens can’t replicate the discourse and community of campus life, and the heightened challenges of safety, equity, and learning will remain front of mind this school year. But our students — and the adults who model hope and resilience — are still writing their own stories. Thank you all for making these stories possible, and for keeping St. Andrew’s and each of our Lions in your hearts. Faithfully,

Robert Kosasky Head of School FALL 2020

COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT

OUR HEALTHCARE HEROES Thank you Diane and Shelley, for being more than nurses for our students, but also caregivers for our entire community. It is impossible to reflect on this year without thinking

of our nurses. Diane Stewart, BSN, RN, and Shelley Keneally, BSN, RN, NCSN, have been shepherding the St. Andrew’s

community through our response to COVID-19 from the start.

Before our campus closed in March, our nurses ensured that

all classrooms were stocked with hand sanitizer and hospital-

grade cleaning supplies, and instructed faculty and staff on best practices for keeping their classrooms clean and safe for all students.

Throughout the summer, our nurses served on the Health and

Safety Task Force, advising school leaders on how to reopen

safely and drafting protocols for all aspects of school life, from daily health screenings to safe sports practices.

When students returned to campus for orientation, Nurses

Keneally and Stewart were the first friendly faces they saw,

reassuring and calming with their care and professionalism.

OUR TECHNOLOGY TITANS Thank you to James, Afshin, Chris, Boyd, and Eric for all that you do to make school a success. As suddenly as our daily lives transformed in March, so too did

the role of our Technology Department.

If the servers were down, classes were down, too. Every

student needed a take-home device, an email address, a

password. And the portals that brought school to life, Google Meet and Zoom, presented new challenges for teachers and

students alike. Through all of this, our Technology Department was behind the scenes, ensuring distance learning was the

best it could be and patiently guiding students, teachers, and parents.

Upon our return to campus, all classrooms were equipped

with cameras to keep students connected, a critical accessibility expansion made possible by our Technology team — James

Masciuch, Afshin Asgharian, Chris Echave, Boyd Reilly, and Eric

Vacchio. And even though fewer students are now experiencing

school on screens, the team is just an email or call away, ready to support and encourage us.

OUR MAINTENANCE MARVELS Thank you to Jose, Luis, Javier, Josh, Emilio, Eric, Dan, and Joe for all that you do to make our campus feel like home. What happens when buildings close? The occupants pack up

their things, lock the door, and walk away.

St. Andrew’s buildings closed to students and employees in

March, but thanks to our operations team — Joe Phelan, Josh

Jonas, Luis Aguilar, Dan DeMare, Eric Grieve, Emilio Perdomo,

Jose Rivera and Javier Saavedra — our classrooms, hallways, and gathering spaces were kept in pristine condition, ready for our return whenever it was safe to do so.

So when we did return in October, it was as if we never left:

the classrooms were clean, bright, and welcoming, and our

hallways and gathering spaces were equipped to handle social distancing and new safety requirements.

“I miss the kids,” said Maintenance Supervisor Josh Jonas. “We

fix it, we make it look nice, and they come back and enjoy it. And then we do it all over again next year.”

ONE PRIDE INITIATIVE INSPIRES ACTS OF CARING, GENEROSITY

St. Andrew’s One Pride Initiative was first conceived as a coordinated response to the question, “What can I do to help?” Students, families, alumni, faculty, and staff saw opportunities to make a difference, and, through the One Pride Initiative, connect with the greater St. Andrew’s community to make an even bigger impact. Some of these projects included a mask-making assembly line at the home of Gabi Henderson ’24, faceshield fabricating by Jake Lee ’20 and Jill Wiedenmayer ’07, and a food-delivery brigade organized by local restaurant Medium Rare, which was supported by several St. Andrew’s teachers and families. In April, the School announced an expansion of the One Pride Initiative focused on keeping our community whole. Many St. Andrew’s families experienced severe economic hardship as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the School was committed to offering the necessary financial support. To ensure that all students could return to St. Andrew’s for the 2020-2021 school year, the School organized Giving and Caring Week, a campaign focused on celebrating the ways our community supported each other through acts of service and gifts to financial aid during the pandemic. Inspired by the generosity of our current and former teachers, families and alumni stepped up to the challenge, coming together to motivate the community to give. For more on One Pride, see page 76.

Thanks in part to One Pride, we were able to increase the number of

students who receive financial support by close to 5%. This year, nearly

30% of students will receive financial support to attend St. Andrew’s.

NEW LOWER SCHOOL BUILDING OPENS After a decade of being split across multiple campuses, St. Andrew’s officially became a one-campus school in the fall of 2019. A 31,000-square-foot, threestory building opened with spaces designed specifically for students in preschool through fifth grade. The spacious building features light-filled classrooms, purpose-built science, art, and design labs, and expansive space for student gatherings and performances. The Outdoor Learning Space provides preschool and elementary students age-appropriate play space to explore. Together, the project creates the best of both worlds for Lower School students and families — a first-rate, dedicated space for early-childhood and elementary learning while deepening our school-wide sense of community.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

NAMES NEW HEAD Early in the 2019-2020 school year, Dr. Rodney Glasgow announced he would be stepping down as Head of Middle School at the end of the academic year to take over as Head of School at nearby Sandy Spring Friends School. This decision led St. Andrew’s to conduct a nationwide search for its next Head of Middle School, a search that culminated in the hiring of Aaron Hill, Sr. to take over the division. Hill came to St. Andrew’s from Woodward Academy in College Park, Georgia, where he was Director of Student Activities. Prior to that he was a teacher and administrator to both Middle and Upper School students at various schools, and was named Teacher of the Year while at Smithfield High School in Smithfield, Virginia, where he chaired the Fine & Performing Arts Department. Hill, a native of York, Pennsylvania, spent the first 22 years of his adult life in the United States Army, serving three tours of duty at the Armed Forces School of Music, where his teaching career began. “I believe you have to love kids in general to be most effective in helping them learn and navigate life,” Hill said. “Middle Schoolers have a unique desire to learn. 12

SCHOOL HISTORY

In the fall of 2019, St. Andrew’s received the second largest gift in school history. Donated by Jody and Kathy Dreyfuss, the gift endowed a Faculty Chair for Research ensuring that the science of learning would continue to inform classroom practices at St. Andrew’s in perpetuity. The Dreyfuss family has played an essential role in the growth and success of St. Andrew’s for 30 years. Jody Dreyfuss served on the Board of Trustees from 1992-1999, and as Board Treasurer was instrumental in acquiring the Postoak Campus and securing the school’s financial future. Previously, Jody and Kathy, parents of Paige ’93, endowed the position of Head Librarian, and the Library is named

Dr. Ian Kelleher

in honor of Jody’s parents, Muriel and David Dreyfuss. “We believe in St. Andrew’s mission, the way it treats its children, and the principles that are the basis of the school,” Jody and Kathy Dreyfuss said in 2018 when discussing why the school matters to them philanthropically. Dr. Ian Kelleher, a University of Cambridge-trained scientist, is the inaugural Joseph and Kathleen Dreyfuss Faculty Chair for Research. Dr. Kelleher has been a member of the St. Andrew’s faculty since 2002, has previously served as department chair and teaches physics, chemistry and robotics, and currently serves as the CTTL’s Director of Research. A co-author of the book “Neuroteach: Brain Science and the Future of Education,” Dr. Kelleher, in his role at the CTTL, designs and conducts research with the Omidyar Faculty Fellows, the Finn Family Student Research Fellows, and individual researchers at universities including Johns Hopkins, the University of Virginia, Stanford, and Research Schools International that was created by faculty at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education. Ian is also one of the lead designers of Neuroteach Global, the CTTL’s web-based professional development tool for teachers around the world.

SEPTEMBER

In 2020, with community revolving more than ever around individual homerooms, each class came up with their own rules to guide them.

OCTOBER ▼ Lower School students participate in annual Blessing of the Animals ▲ Middle School students meet accomplished violinist Mariela Shaker

Mariela Shaker is more than just an acclaimed violinist, she also is a refugee who fled the Syrian civil war. She performed for Middle School students and shared her story to help kick off the 2019-2020 Middle School theme of “Choose to See, Choose to Act.” The theme focused on empowering students to create safe spaces for others and choose to see and respond to injustices they witness. Shaker, who was honored at the White House in 2015, spoke to students in grades 6-8 about fleeing Syria in 2013. Latin teacher presents at American Classical League’s centennial conference

Kristin Webster has only been at St. Andrew’s a few years, but the Latin teacher has doubled enrollment in her upper level Latin classes as well as placement on the National Latin Exam. She credits Mind, Brain, and Education Science strategies that draw on research into the connection between emotion and cognition. She has focused on creating a classroom culture that gives students an active voice in their learning. Webster took what she gleaned from her experiences in the classroom to the American Classical League’s centennial conference in New York City in the summer of 2019, presenting to colleagues from 14

The Blessing of the Animals has always been a signature Lower School event that includes a chapel service celebrating the ministry of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and ecology. With the Lower School building still being finished, students brought in stuffed animals and photos of their pets to be blessed in 2019. In 2020, students were able to bring their animals into their virtual classrooms and receive a blessing from our chaplains. We are excited to have animals with us again for future Blessing of the Animals services.

Josh Lobsenz ’20 was named a National Merit Finalist, one of just 15,000 nationwide out of 1.5 million then-juniors who took the PSAT the previous year. Others in the Class of 2020 who earned recognition as National Merit Commended Scholars were Felicia Gelos, Owen Gilman, Jake Lee, Nick Tsintolas, and Bill Zhang. Lower Schoolers work together to form community guidelines

Rev. Gene Robinson speaks to Middle and Upper Schoolers

Every year, Lower School students work together to come up with School Rules for their division. These community guidelines show a shared commitment to a community that is guided by principles that fit with the school’s values and mission. In 2019, inspired by the book “One” by Kathryn Otoshi, the three guidelines were “Do the right thing,” “Respect others and objects by following the Golden Rule,” and “Take risks and learn from your mistakes.”

The Rt. Rev. V. Gene Robinson gave the guest homily during the 2019 Ally Week chapel service. Bishop Robinson, who became the first openly gay and partnered Bishop in historic Christianity when he was eleced Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire in 2003, is a recognized voice on issues of civil rights for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people; antiracism; and AIDS education.

During the virtual commencement ceremony, graduates were able to hear from their peers as well as alumna Parisa Karaahmet ’87, who gave the commencement address. The entire ceremony can be seen on the St. Andrew’s YouTube page (www.youtube.com/saeslions). For more on the Class of 2020, see page 84.

Students in Will Ferriby’s Organic Biochemistry class developed a scientific mindset by reading and presenting on scientific journal articles, including research on COVID-19. They completed the trimester by writing their own journalstyle papers on chemistry topics of their choosing, such as the science behind vaping products, self-tanning, and food coloring. The articles were anonymously reviewed by their peers, and the top papers were included in the inaugural Journal of Organic Biochemistry at St. Andrew’s (JOBSA).

BASKETBALL TEAMS SWEEP ISL AND MAC TITLES The boys and girls basketball teams pulled off an incredibly rare feat in 2019-2020 when both teams won their regular season title and followed it up with conference tournament championships. The girls team was unbeaten in the regular season, compiling a 16-0 mark in the ISL. In the title match, they topped St. Stephen’s and St. Agnes, 68-56, to win the ISL A Tournament Championship. The boys weren’t unbeaten in the MAC regular season but they did finish with the conference’s top seed. They topped Sidwell Friends in the title match, 50-42, to take home the MAC Tournament title. The boys basketball team finished ranked 8th in the Washington Post rankings of all high school teams in the DMV and Benny Williams ’21 was named first-team All-Met while Colin Smalls ’20 was All-Met honorable mention.

The death of George Floyd and the ensuing antiracism protests and calls to end police brutality galvanized St. Andrew’s alumni and students to take action. In June, the Black Alumni Collective (BAC) was formed by alumni Delonte Egwuatu ’12, Kiah Simms ’12, Jamee Williams ’12, Husam Shabazz ’15, and Gillian Sanford ’18 out of the desire to “do our part” and support the racial justice and equality movement in the United States. The BAC is committed to helping St. Andrew’s work with its Black constituents to foster and model reconciliation, ensure racial equity and equality, and enrich the experience of Black St. Andrew’s students and alumni through fellowship, advocacy, and mentorship. In an effort to improve communication and transparency between the Black community and the School administration, St. Andrew’s and the Black Alumni Collective hosted a Truth, Healing, and Reconciliation Call on August 27. More than 70 alumni and current faculty and staff attended the virtual gathering. In addition, the BAC hosted the inaugural Juneteenth Celebration for Black alumni; presented its Eight Commitments for the Increase of Racial Integration and Inclusivity of Black Students to St. Andrew’s senior leadership; was voted by the Alumni Council to become an official auxiliary and have a seat on the Council; and created the annual tradition of presenting Black graduates with Kente 24

This summer St. Andrew’s students Danielle Peters ’21, Brianna Lane ’21 and Stefen Rincon ’21 created the Students of Color Association (SOCA), a new student leadership organization that seeks to encourage, inspire, and uplift young people of color to become leaders in the St. Andrew’s community and stand up for those whose voices are not heard.

Peters, Lane, and Rincon met virtually with administrators to stress the urgency of anti-bias training and anti-racist curriculum. They also gathered virtually with the Student Government Association and other student leaders to discuss the importance of the organization and the need for solidarity to address systemic racism, and the need to increase the visibility and voices of students of color at St. Andrew’s.

BLACK ALUMNI COLLECTIVE

AWARDS SIX SCHOLARSHIPS On August 28, the Black Alumni Collective held its first fundraising event, the BAC (FAM)ily Fundraiser. Thanks to donations from more than 200 donors, the one-day virtual campaign raised $37,400, which will go toward helping Black St. Andrew’s students and young alumni afford books, travel opportunities, and college tuition, and fund an innovation award or grant for Black St. Andrew’s students or young alumni. The Black Alumni Collective is pleased to announce the winners of the inaugural (FAM)ily Fund Scholarships. All recipients are currently enrolled at an undergraduate institution and were selected in a nameblind application process on the basis of merit, financial need, and a commitment to the BAC’s core mission. From the Class of 2020, Justice Morgan received a $2,500 award and Tami Akinde received a $1,000 award. From the Class of 2019, Tony Diallo received a $1,000 award. From the Class of 2018, Gabrielle Sanford received a $5,000 award and Marcus Mahtemework received a $1,000 award. Finally, from the Class of 2017, Alex Smith received a $2,500 award.

The DEI leadership team, which includes faculty or staff coordinators for each division, has deemed this school year an opportunity to “Learn, Unlearn, and Relearn.” This theme will be the focus of St. Andrew’s professional development with faculty and the individual and collective work we do with our students. Already, our faculty and staff are answering the call to provide each student with an anti-racist and anti-bias curriculum and pedagogy that prepares them for the world outside of St. Andrew’s. Among the new resources for St. Andrew’s students, parents, faculty, and staff is the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Virtual Lounge, where community members can connect with the DEI leadership team, ask about resources, or check in.

HANLEY NAMED DIRECTOR INCLUSION

In February, Spanish teacher and CTTL Leadership Team member Lorraine Martinez Hanley was appointed to succeed Dr. Rodney Glasgow as St. Andrew’s Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Lorraine brings long-term relationships and deep expertise to this role. She is a founding member of the National Diversity Practitioners Institute and has been a faculty leader at the NAIS Student Diversity Leadership Conference for 14 years. After serving as Director of Equity and Inclusion at Indian Creek School in Crownsville, Maryland, Lorraine joined the St. Andrew’s faculty in 2017 as a Middle and Upper School Spanish teacher and advisor. As a Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning Omidyar Faculty Fellow, Lorraine has been instrumental in connecting our DEI initiatives to our Mind, Brain, and Education research. Dr. Glasgow, former Chief Diversity Officer and Head of Middle School, departed St. Andrew’s in July to become Head of School at Sandy Spring Friends School. “Lorraine is a highly respected educator and colleague at St. Andrew’s. She is also nationally known and trusted as a seasoned diversity practitioner,” Dr. Glasgow said. “I have had the pleasure of leading diversity work with Lorraine in various capacities over the past 15 years, and it warms my heart to know that this important work at St. Andrew’s will be in her most capable and loving hands.”

ST. ANDREW’S AND THE CTTL AWARDED SECOND EE FORD LEADERSHIP GRANT

St. Andrew’s Episcopal School and the Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning (CTTL) was awarded a $250,000 EE Ford Educational Leadership Grant in December, becoming the first school to ever receive two such grants from the EE Ford Foundation. St. Andrew’s previously received the leadership grant, the largest one the EE Ford Foundation annually hands out, in 2015. “St. Andrew’s and the CTTL have been harnessing technology to bring the tools of cognitive neuroscience to teachers throughout the world and they now want to expand this effort to include students,” said John Gulla, Executive Director of the EE Ford Foundation. “The EE Ford Foundation has supported them in this work before and is pleased and proud to have made a second Educational Leadership Grant to the school for this exemplar of an effective program demonstrating the public purpose of a private school.” St. Andrew’s was awarded its current grant to help build Neuroteach Global Student (NTGS), a companion to the CTTL’s highly successful Neuroteach Global, a first-of-its-kind digital professional development experience, rooted in MBE Science and currently used by thousands of teachers around the world. When completed, NTGS will help students build academic confidence, resilience, and performance by helping them learn how their own brains work and how to apply that knowledge to their own learning. 26

Neuroteach Global, a first-of-its-kind digital professional development experience, is rooted in MBE Science and currently used by thousands of teachers around the world.

“Neuroteach Global Student (NTGS) provides a novel learning experience that uses the Science of Learning to teach students the Science of Learning,” said Glenn Whitman, Director of the Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning. “Our goal is to elevate 100% of St. Andrew’s students’ understanding of the research-informed strategies that can enhance their academic achievement and make them more efficient, confident, and healthy students. St. Andrew’s students will play a critical role in the building of NTGS as members of the team that will design this virtual learning experience. After launching at St. Andrew’s, NTGS will be shared with students from around the world.” This is the fifth time St. Andrew’s has won a grant from the EE Ford Foundation. In addition to the Leadership Grant in 2015, St. Andrew’s also won grants in

EDUCATOR, PARENT AUDIENCE When the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of the Science of Teaching and School Leadership Academy, a week-long professional development experience for teachers and school leaders focused on translating Mind, Brain, and Education Science (MBE) research to public, private, and international schools, the CTTL quickly pivoted to design a new event for educators and parents. The MBE Summer Deep Dive Series, held from July 13 to July 17, was a virtual event designed to provide attendees with

foundational strategies for supporting students’ learning, whether school was in-person or online. Each day of the Deep Dive Series featured a leading researcher and focused on topics such as distance learning, metacognition, the link between emotion and learning, and strategies to boost memory. Following each talk, attendees shared takeaways and developed lesson plans during small-group facilitated “translation” sessions. The five-day event attracted close to 350 educators and parents from throughout the United States and countries including Singapore, Uruguay, France, Canada, Thailand, and Australia. WHITMAN FACILITATES

WORKSHOPS IN SYDNEY, BANGKOK

The CTTL expanded its international reach in January with two workshops led by director Glenn Whitman at schools in Australia and Thailand. The two visits, first to The Ravenswood School for Girls in Sydney and then to NIST International School in Bangkok, follow both schools’ participation in the CTTL’s Science of Teaching and School Leadership Academy. At Ravenswood, Whitman facilitated

a two-day workshop for 180 faculty and staff members who were seeking to begin or elevate their understanding of the most promising research and strategies in MBE. With the school year in Australia about to begin, teachers and administrators were able to consider how to integrate MBE strategies around memory retrieval and spaced practice, feedback, meta-cognition, dual coding, and the social emotional learning of students to support its whole child mission and commitment to balancing the academic rigor of the school’s curriculum with the wellbeing of each student. At NIST, Whitman worked with groups of teachers who wanted to deepen the school’s translation of MBE research and how they apply it to their work with nearly 1200 students. A full-day of discussion with more than 25 NIST teachers and school leaders explored the science of reading and coaching, and what research is most promising for the varied developmental ages of NIST students. “It is an amazing experience to take the decade-long work of St. Andrew’s teachers with our students and share it with like-minded schools around the world who are eager to apply our experience to how they think about their teaching, student achievement, and the whole child’s school experience,” Whitman said.

STUDENT REFLECTIONS

CHOOSING RESILIENCE IN UNCOMMON TIMES Students rise to the challenge of the pandemic, and show us how we can, too. Each St. Andrew’s student has their own story to tell about their life during the COVID-19 pandemic. When it comes to their school life, many miss the same things. It’s hard to remember the last time they could squeeze into a lunch table with their friends in Mac Hall, or the afternoons when they would wait for the 6 p.m. bus just so they could spend a few more hours studying and socializing together. Now, their teachers are no longer in the hallway to exchange a good morning, or in their office to answer a question. Teachers can no longer catch a student at lunch to remind them to turn in an assignment or compliment them on a great answer in class. Those vital moments of interaction that happen in a brief second and help build a rapport between student and teacher must take on new and different forms. Through it all, our students have demonstrated remarkable resilience, creating their own solutions to the questions that many adults still wrestle with: How will I get through this? What will I learn from this time apart? What will the world be like when this has passed? Here are four student stories that answer those questions. Perhaps they will help us answer our own.

Zoie Walden ’23 has volleyball on the brain. During a typical fall, she would have just wrapped up a season of serving and spiking for the Lions in her second year on the varsity team. For now, she’ll be waiting until February at the earliest to get back on Lions Court. Tryouts for her club volleyball team took place in November, but it wasn’t clear if she would make the cut. Limited capacity in gymnasiums means that fewer players can take the court, so even though she played last year, older players may have been first in line for those spots. A postponed sports season and an uncertain club season, however, didn’t stop her from making volleyball central to her distance learning success strategy this year. Attending school from home means sitting in front of a laptop screen for hours. Taking deliberate brain breaks and playing volleyball with her dad made a difference. “Going outside was just a mental reset and refresher as I was getting used to virtual learning,” she said. “After going outside and having that break, it helped me focus much more during class.” Her family is cautious and limits their outings. She’s seen friends while wearing face coverings and social distancing, but misses going to the movies and walking around the mall. Until she’s back on the court, her focus will be tackling a more challenging course load, which includes AP European History, Honors English, and Algebra 2. “It’s a change in the workload, so it’s challenging, managing all of that work with also staying sane and doing normal things,” Zoie said.

For Hannah Newman ‘22, this year was meant to be one on the move — a summer away in a Spanish immersion program; a fall cross country season; road trips to her top choice colleges, just to see what it would be like to study there long before she needed to apply. Instead, much of her year has been spent sitting still, learning from a distance in her bedroom. Rather than resist the change, Hannah chose to examine it, not just from her own perspective, but also from the perspective of those who do not choose to be homebound. This summer, Hannah became a teen ambassador for Meals on Wheels of Central Maryland, a non-profit organization that provides meals and support services to senior citizens. In addition to meal packing, she learned about non-profit leadership during webinars and, as a final project, organized a wax candle sale fundraiser for Meals on Wheels.

SAES.ORG

“There are even more people who have become homebound (because of the pandemic),” Hannah said, noting how she still feels the effects of her own experience with self-isolation. “Meals on Wheels is such an essential service that provides these people with meals and companionship.” Before she was able to return to campus for hybrid learning, Hannah found ways to bring some movement to her day. Socially distant picnics and runs made a difference, as did a consistent morning routine. “It seems kind of trivial, but putting on a cute outfit, something you feel confident in, can make a difference,” she said. “Just being in your room and having the change of, getting up and getting dressed and doing your hair and physically moving your location from right next to your bed makes such a big difference.”

Andrew Saavedra ‘24 thrives when he is creating and that’s one thing the COVID-19 pandemic hasn’t taken away from him. As an artist, Andrew knows that he works best when he has a specific objective: sketch “this” still life, or draw “this” portrait. But these days, as boredom sets in during times when he would typically be at swim practice or hanging out with friends, rather than picking up his phone, he picks up paper and pencil. “Doing art, it’s helped me be more calm and it lets me express how I’m feeling during this time,” Andrew said. He’s grateful for the relationships he developed with his classmates and teachers throughout middle school, which have continued as he transitioned from distance learning as an eighth grader to

distance learning as a freshman in the Upper School. “The eighth-grade step-up assembly brought everyone together,” he said. “To be able to see all of us together moving on and transitioning, that was a big thing.” He’s able to create deeper bonds with his friends through group texts and massive Zoom calls, sometimes spending three hours at a time catching up and laughing with friends. Knowing how much he thrives from seeing his friends in person, he finds himself wondering if, when “this” is all over, if school will ever be the same. “For me, seeing friends everyday, that pushed me throughout the day,” Andrew said. “Knowing I would have them in my next class would make my day more fun.”

FALL 2020

Alex Myler ‘23 had just started solidifying his friendships and building a rapport with his teachers when St. Andrew’s campus closed. Not only was it his freshman year, but it had also been his first year studying in the United States, having moved here from Australia last year. As a member of the Upper School’s FIRST LEGO Tech Challenge Robotics team, Alex is comfortable with engineering solutions to new challenges, and that’s exactly how he turned distance learning into a growth opportunity. “I take as many notes as I can and get creative with my notes, and that would keep me attentive,” he said. “When a teacher asks a question, I’ll be the first to answer. I interact with the class, and help other students if we’re in breakout rooms.” Distance learning taught him that he works better in groups than on his own. This summer, even when he was at home tinkering with the team’s robot, devising how it would drive and complete tasks for the 2021 competition season, he did not work on the project alone. “We’re all contributing to what the robot is going to look like, how it’s going to work, how different parts of it are going to run,” Alex said. “We’re taking everyone’s ideas and implementing them in the robot’s design.” He is still able to row with his crew team, although members are now racing individually, a change that was not a hurdle for Alex, who had raced on his own in Australia. In addition to crew, Alex has stayed connected to his friends via social media and playing video games. He worries about how his friends and family in Australia are faring with the pandemic, even as the country has reigned in the virus. “Being on the other side of the world and being worried how they're doing, you never know the conditions and if they’re doing something that might get them more exposed,” Alex said.

ALUMNI PROFILES

COLLEGE INTERRUPTED The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the college experience of our young alumni, many of whom had just settled into the rhythm of life on campus when they were told to stay home after spring break. While some schools have resumed classes in person, many continue to operate entirely online, leaving students to reimagine their college experience. Each St. Andrew’s alumnus and alumna is making the most of this unique time in their own way; here are just three examples.

ANNABEL RESOR ’20: A FRESH START ACROSS THE POND

Long before the COVID-19 pandemic began, Annabel Resor ’20 had made her post-graduation plans: she would spend a gap year backpacking and studying sustainability in the Patagonia region. But the pandemic’s hold on South America forced Resor to explore other options, ultimately landing her on the opposite side of the Atlantic with an experiential learning program, Irish Gap Year, in Bundoran, Co. Donegal, Ireland. “When I chose to take a gap year, I knew I wanted to go abroad, so it was definitely a struggle finding something that was international and interesting to me,” she said. “I am extremely lucky to have found this program.” When she isn’t hiking to cliff edges, learning how to surf, or cultivating a community garden, Resor and her 14 fellow gap year participants are sharing a home, where they are each responsible for cleaning and maintaining the house and preparing meals. In her two months in Ireland, Resor said she has learned more about herself and gained valuable skills and experiences. “This responsibility has shown me how to be more independent and aware of myself in group settings,” she said. “Also, this program has taught me how to embrace change and be more flexible. As I plan the rest of my gap year, I keep an open, flexible, and hopeful attitude.”

TONY DIALLO ’19: CREATING A SAFE SPACE FOR UNCOMFORTABLE CONVERSATIONS

As the movement against racial injustice erupted this summer, Tony Diallo ’19 decided to channel his emotions into action. “With everything going on, I didn’t want to not do anything,” he said. “It just felt wrong to sit by and wait for someone else to do something when I have a laptop, I have Instagram, I have a platform. If I have the skills, why not use them?” He started a series of forums on Zoom where he and other young people could share their perspectives on social and politiContinued on page 36 FALL 2020

Continued from page 35 cal issues, ranging from defunding the police to the presidential election. His forums caught the attention of the Black American Youth Liberation Organization (BAYLO), a student group at his school, University of Maryland, Baltimore County. Now, Diallo hosts the forums in partnership with BAYLO, moderating discussions that have reached as many as 50 attendees weekly. It’s not easy hosting the forums; he is careful to watch his emotions and reactions to what attendees say, making sure he isn’t showing bias. Learning to respond with maturity and intellect, and establishing a safe environment to have uncomfortable conversations, are skills he learned when he attended the Student Diversity Leadership Conference two years in a row as a St. Andrew’s student. “Learning from [former Chief Diversity Officer] Dr. [Rodney] Glasgow and being around him so often, learning how to handle these situations and how to talk to people and make an effort to connect with them, has really made the forums that I do easier,” he said. “I probably wouldn’t have done them without having the skills I learned from SDLC.” GORDON REEVES ’18: A SEMESTER AT A PLACE BEYOND

If Gordon Reeves ’18 were on campus this fall at the College of Wooster, he wouldn’t really “be” on campus; although students are able to stay in dorms, a spike in positive COVID-19 cases forced the school to restrict all student movement and conduct classes online. So, instead of driving north this fall, he went out west, road tripping with his sister, Joy ’18, to Arizona, where he is studying remotely from a campground in the Prescott National Forest through an alternative room-and-board program called A Place Beyond. “I had to contend with both wanting to go back on campus while also weighing 36

the growing risks of COVID-19 spreading rapidly at some universities,” Reeves said. “It seemed like a great fit for me to spend time in the beautiful outdoors with other students while mitigating the risk of getting infected with COVID-19.” At A Place Beyond, Reeves is safely interacting with college students from across the country, participating in workshops, and camping during the weekends, all while

continuing to take his Political Science classes remotely at the College of Wooster. He said this experience has been transformative for his happiness and motivation. “A Place Beyond helped me to find a new kind of balance, where I can spend time doing physical activities in the outdoors (which is linked to happiness and academic performance) while also getting my schedule and coursework back in check,” he said.

“Sue and I decided to make a bequest to St. Andrew’s mostly because of my great appreciation for the opportunity to teach. Our involvement with St. Andrew’s began when it was just a few years old and we were inspired to see the school’s commitment to keeping students engaged in their studies while giving them a broad perspective. Seeing the school’s growth and all it’s achieved, we felt it important to leave a legacy for future generations of students to take advantage of this wonderful learning environment and be a part of this caring community.” — Alaster MacDonald

letter from the treasurer The St. Andrew’s family remains strong as we navigate through uncertain times. Over the summer we completed important improvements to the sports fields and constructed a new parking deck while simultaneously making the necessary investments to prepare for distance, hybrid, and in-person learning scenarios. Enrollment for the coming year is at record levels, and our financial position remains healthy as a result of the continued support and generosity of the St. Andrew’s community. Looking back on the 2019-2020 school year, St. Andrew’s saw increased enrollment levels over the previous year, a strong operating surplus, and positive cash flow, thus meeting our financial obligations and debt covenants comfortably. In addition to tuition revenue, the School’s financial health was further strengthened by the generous philanthropy of the St. Andrew’s community through gifts to Capital Giving, the Lions Fund, the Gala, and the One Pride campaign. Despite the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the School has sustained important programs and significantly expanded financial aid. The School continues to reinvest in our most important resources – our faculty and staff – in order to maintain St. Andrew’s level of excellence and commitment to our students. The Board is encouraged by the positive financial results, as well as the continued strong support of our donor community. Because of this, St. Andrew’s can continue to provide an extraordinary teaching and learning environment and fulfill its mission to know and inspire each child. Christopher Dymond Treasurer

Why We Give

When we visited St. Andrew’s more than a decade ago, we realized we had discovered something special, but at the same time, we greatly underestimated the true value of our find. It turned out to be a welcoming home for both of our children, who have very different interests, personalities, and learning styles. It also turned out to be a place that challenged and stretched them, and prepared them for the rigors of college and life beyond. We are grateful for these gifts, and for the opportunity to give back — and pay it forward — for future generations of St. Andrew’s students.” SHEILA MAITH AND DAVID DOUGLASS

Why We Give

Thanks to the support we received ourselves as students, Fred and I were able to attend independent schools and eventually pursue our life dreams. We will forever be grateful for the support from families that made our education possible. We give to St. Andrew’s to pass that gift on to help a wide range of students have access to the rich and joyful learning environment at St. Andrew’s. FRED AND CHERYL SCARBORO PARENTS TO ALEX ‘22

My mother taught me the importance of giving back to a community that has helped to uplift you. I’ve been able to excel in college and my internships because of the tools and positive characteristics that I developed through my experiences at St. Andrew’s. When I invest in St. Andrew’s, I do so with the belief that I am not only investing in a student’s education but their experiences. I don’t just donate financially; through my work with the Black Alumni Collective, I give of my time so I can enhance the experience of Black students through advocacy, mentorship, and fellowship.” GILLIAN SANFORD ‘18

Why We Give

As parents new to St. Andrew’s, we were drawn to the school’s community and culture. Specifically, the focus on ‘Love, Worship, Welcome, Serve and Question’ which embodies a well-rounded individual and member of society. We recognize that executing on this vision requires resources beyond what is covered by tuition. Giving to the Lions Fund is an investment in our daughter, her friends and classmates, teachers, and faculty and helps to support St. Andrew’s, especially during these unique times.” MARK AND STEPH LEAHEY PARENTS OF PARKER ‘25

The school’s spring benefit raises money each year to support financial aid. St. Andrew’s thanks Gala Co-Chairs Kristy Boyles and Betsey Drucker, as well as the entire community for raising more than $420,000 to provide tuition assistance to deserving students. This was an even more impressive feat considering that the 2020 Fund-A-Scholar Gala was transformed with just a few days notice from an evening dinner into a virtual event that united current and alumni families around the country!
