8 College Counseling

The college admission landscape has changed dramatically over the past three years but one thing that hasn’t changed is the success St. Andrew’s students have had in getting into one of their top choice schools. Learn more about the human-centered college counseling process at St. Andrew’s.

16 Q&A with Phyllis Robinson

This spring, one of the most recognizable faces in St. Andrew’s history, Phyllis Robinson, retired after 37 years of teaching. She agreed to answer a few questions about her time at St. Andrew’s as well as life after teaching.

22 Great Works Project at 10

Bishop’s Representative John Harmon

The Great Works Project is the signature academic program for St. Andrew’s sophomores. In its 10 years it has impacted more than 500 students and continues to be an experience that provides students with voice, choice, and ownership.

After a two-year hiatus, the Lion-Cub program resumed this year, this time with students in K-5 paired with students in 7-12. This mane of this lion is a joint art project of the members of the program and was displayed at the annual Lion-Cub breakfast prior to the Walk for the Homeless at this year's Homecoming.

College Counseling: A Capstone Program of St. Andrew’s

Dear Friends,

In 1945 my father walked from his Winnipeg home to the University of Manitoba and registered for college. Four years later, he walked across the street to sign up for medical school. In 1984, my Boston-area college counselor met with me briefly to reorder my list of prospective colleges and make sure that I would apply only to a handful of schools to save unnecessary stress and paperwork. When discussing “going west to college,” she meant Amherst or Williams, not California.

Students today have more options and less certainty. Most twelfthgrade students apply to many more schools than I did, and the number of “first-generation” college applicants has increased significantly in recent years. College application dates and admission processes have become far less standardized, and decisions at highly selective colleges have become less predictable. As college tuition and discounting practices have both risen dramatically, the “real” price of a particular college can be hard to contemplate or even discern. It’s no surprise that student and family anxiety have increased at many high schools.

As Head of School and the parent of two Lion alumni, I hope this magazine helps lower that anxiety. The cover story strives to demystify several trends and factors in college admission, and to describe St. Andrew’s distinctive process for preparing and supporting students throughout their college applications and decisions. If you are a parent of a younger Lion, I hope you will see why so many current students, alumni, and alumni families cite their college counseling experience as a leading strength of St. Andrew’s Upper School program.

We are proud of the range and quality of colleges that accept and enroll our Lions each year. We even more deeply appreciate the St. Andrew’s faculty and staff members who make our college counseling process so informed, hopeful, and student-centered. Whether this magazine helps preview your child’s future or stimulates your own St. Andrew’s memories, I hope you enjoy this current view into a capstone program of our Lions’ education.

Thank you for making St. Andrew’s a place of constant growth and myriad possibilities, and for helping all of our Lions fulfill their promise.

Warmly, Robert Kosasky Head of School

Editor’s Note

When we made the decision last spring to write about the college counseling process at St. Andrew’s for the Fall Magazine and Annual Report, we had two goals in mind. First, show how St. Andrew’s prepares its students for college and guides them through the admission process. Second, demystify the college counseling process for our families. In trying to accomplish these goals, we seek to share what families can expect as they move through the Upper School and prepare their students for the next step in their educational journey.

We acknowledge that this magazine does not address all high-profile issues regarding college admission, attendance, and costs. Earlier this year, the Biden Administration issued an Executive Order authorizing forgiveness of certain student loan debts - an order currently being challenged in court. As we go to press with this edition, the Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments on the use of affirmative action programs in college admissions. And the ranking of colleges and universities, and the various criteria for those rankings, continue to merit questions and criticism.

Amidst so much controversy and uncertainty, we hope that by sharing our internal process transparently, by explaining what our students experience as they apply to college, we can alleviate some of the understandable anxiety that comes with the college admission process.

The Kids Are Alright

St. Andrew’s students continue to find success in college placement despite shifting landscape.

BY RICHARD COCO

Since the Spring of 2020, so much about our world has changed – from how we work to how we order food to the way we attend concerts and sporting events. The COVID-19 pandemic has altered so many facets of our society, including college admission. What colleges are looking for in prospective students and how they evaluate applications have shifted dramatically in the past few years.

Schools are paying less attention to student test scores and more attention to who the student is, what they care about, and what motivates them. In many ways, colleges and universities are beginning to value prospective students in a way that fits perfectly with the mission and culture of St. Andrew’s. This alignment has helped St. Andrew’s most recent graduating classes continue to have successful outcomes as they leave our campus and embark on the next phase of their educational journey.

Take a look at the Class of 2022, and you will see students matriculating to Amherst, Carnegie Mellon, Colorado School of Mines, Cornell, Duke,

Emory, Franklin & Marshall, Harvard, Michigan, NYU, Northwestern, Rochester Institute of Technology, St Andrews (Scotland), Tufts, UCLA, Vassar, Virginia, Wesleyan, and dozens of other colleges. Our students’ applications showcase who they are as individuals and what they will bring to their college community.

“Colleges want to know who you are as an individual,” said Danita Salone, Associate Director of College Counseling. “They really do take a holistic approach in reviewing an application. Yes, academics are key but who are you? What personality and character traits do you possess? What experiences will you bring to the campus community and how will you contribute to the campus environment?”

Salone has been working in college counseling and college admission for more than 15 years. She came to St. Andrew’s this summer from Sidwell Friends School where she spent the previous two years as Associate Director of College Counseling. She works closely alongside Director of College Counsel-

ing Jonathan Gerelus. Gerelus is in his sixth year at St. Andrew’s and has two decades of experience in the field – first at Johns Hopkins University and then for nearly a decade at St. John’s College High School.

Over the past 40 years, the college admission process has become more complex and more anxiety-producing. Applications are at a record high and acceptance rates at many high-profile schools have dropped, exacerbating a process that is already mysterious and stomach-churning for high school students and their families. The concern of getting into a good school has become so overwhelming in the minds of many applicants that questions about the school community and the quality of teaching and learning have become secondary.

But amidst this challenging backdrop, something extraordinary is happening at St. Andrew’s – students are continuing to earn acceptance at one of their top choice

schools and moving on to a college experience that is the right fit for them.

Whether helping a budding artist find a program where they can stretch their wings, supporting a student-athlete navigating the NCAA eligibility process, advising a prospective engineer deciding between an Ivy or a school with a STEM-focused curriculum, or working with the senior unsure of what they want to pursue after high school, the college counseling process at St. Andrew’s works because of the human-centered approach of the college counselors.

That human-centered approach begins with getting to know the students beyond what a transcript shows. It means learning about their interests and hidden talents and developing a relationship that affords them the opportunity to guide them in making one of the most important decisions of their young lives. It means showcasing that St. Andrew’s students are academically independent and ready to engage socially in an interactive college environment – character-

istics that schools want and an area where St. Andrew’s students tend to shine.

“Throughout the college counseling process, we find out so many things about our students that other members of our community are unaware of,” Gerelus said. “Our community is humble. Our students aren’t the type to brag, even when they have some amazing experiences that will absolutely draw the attention of admission officers. Showing who you are will help schools see the student as an individual.”

Gerelus’s words were echoed by Jack Lesure, Assistant Director of Admissions at Hobart and William Smith Colleges. “We want to know who the student is from the student’s perspective,” Lesure said. “What we want to see on the application apart from the transcripts and the classes and the schedules and the grades is ‘who are you from your own perspective?’, and not ‘what do you think we want to know?.’ Truly, ‘who are you?’. If you have a day where you have no responsibilities, what would you do that day and what are you curious about and how are you different from everyone else?”

This effort to consider the whole person is something that Dana and Malachy Nugent experienced with their daughter Caroline ’22. The Nugents returned to the area after an overseas post with Caroline heading into her junior year.

“During the college application process, Mr. Gerelus took into consideration our daughter’s scholastic interests, abilities and accomplishments, hobbies, and extracurricular activities and gave her a thoughtful list with which she could start her search,” the Nugents said. “He was both realistic and reassuring about application choices while allowing her to have complete agency over her final decisions. Throughout the process it was clear that our daughter was working with someone who has a lot of experience in this field, yet knows the current landscape of college and university admissions.”

the college counseling process, it can seem mysterious and anxiety-inducing. Never more so than now, as applications and firsttime applicants have dramatically increased while acceptance rates have mostly gone down. In the two-year cycle from 2019-2020, the last one before the COVID-19 pandemic began, to 2021-2022, total applications rose by 21.3% according to a report from Common App, which has 853 member colleges and universities. That increase was partially due to a growth in first-time applicants (14.4% more of the same time period to the same 853 member schools) and partially due to an increase in applications per person –from a little more than five per person to close to six.

The question of why the increase in applicants and applications has a number of factors. Test-optional and test-blind policies, put into place in the early days of the pandemic because of lack of access to the tests is one driving force. Another is the increase in international applicants as well as intentional recruitment by universities to broaden their applicant base.

In speaking to U.S. News & World Report, Bari Norman, co-founder and head counselor at Expert Admission, an admissions consulting company, said that schools “want to reach students that they’ve never reached before. They also want to create meaningful connections with students that they previously may have connected with, but there wasn’t the sense on the part of the students that there was space for kids like them on those college campuses.”

While this news might make some nervous, St. Andrew’s students and families should continue to feel confident about college opportunities. If they have any doubt, all they need to do is look at the outcomes for the students in the Class of 2022. St. Andrew’s graduated 94 students in June, and all of them headed to college. Collectively they were admitted to 179 different institutions and they will attend 71 different schools. Nearly one-third of them – 27 students in total – were admitted to every school to which

they applied, and 63% applied early decision or early action. On average, each student submitted 10 applications, which fits with the philosophy of the college counseling office.

“The desired outcome is for students to have options,” Gerelus said. “The road to those options is paved differently for each student but we want to make sure there is a balanced schools list for students to look at and decide what’s the best option for them.”

In helping provide students with options, the college counselors – along with Peggy Porterfield who is the Registrar and Assistant to College Counseling – help identify merit-based scholarships and financial aid opportunities for students at the different schools to which they are applying. For some, the cost of tuition has historically limited options. Over the past 20 years, tuition and fees at private schools have risen by 134%, out-of-state tuition at public universities have gone up 141%, while in-state tuition and fees have increased by 175%. Some good news though can be inferred from the most recent admission cycle. According to U.S. News & World Report (in reviewing the 440 national universities ranked in their 2022-2023 Best College rankings), rates at private schools went up by just 1% while tuition at public universities, both in-state and out-of-state, decreased, according to U.S. News & World Report. ***

So how did the Class of 2022 achieve such remarkable results for their college placement despite an overall increase in applications to colleges and a decrease in acceptance rates? While every student is responsible for their own achievements, there is no doubt that the support and guidance of the college counseling office was instrumental in giving students and families the direction, encouragement, and focus they needed to find a school that was the right fit for each and every one of the 94 graduates.

“Audrey is our first child to apply to college, so we were very nervous from the start,” said Rory and Ned Quint, parents of Audrey, a Class of 2022 graduate. “However, from day one, the St. Andrew’s process was

deliberative and well-organized. Mr. Gerelus took the time to get to know Audrey as more than just grades and test scores, and was extremely helpful in suggesting schools to consider initially as well as others as Audrey gathered more information and refined her preferences. Audrey (a first-year student at Scripps College in Claremont, California) ended up at a school that is a perfect fit for her.”

The suggesting of schools is a core part of the college counseling process at St. Andrew’s. In the first half of their junior year, students are given a questionnaire to help the college counselors understand what the student is looking for in a college. (Parents are given a similar questionnaire as well.)

“For us, the questionnaire is the key element of what we do,” Gerelus said. “It allows the parents and students to have a voice in the college process. Sometimes the student has certain ideas, sometimes the parents have certain ideas, but I think the questionnaire we have developed over the past several years really allows us to get a sense of what the student’s interests and wishes are.”

After the questionnaires are returned, one-on-one meetings are scheduled for the counselor to sit with the student and parents and they leave the meeting with a list of 20 schools to consider based on interests shared in the questionnaire.

“The list of 20 schools that I received at the start of the college search process from college counseling was incredibly helpful because it helped to discover the schools that fit my interests,” said Iris Zola ’23. “I appreciated that college counseling was able to help me narrow down a list of schools where I could be successful that also matched everything that I was looking for.”

Kate Schneider ’23 was looking for a school that would allow her to continue her equestrian experience. After years of riding at St. Andrew’s, she wanted a school where she could continue to ride while also pursuing her academic goals.

“Mr. Gerelus gave me a personalized list of 20 schools, all of which have competitive equestrian programs. Almost all of the

schools I ended up applying to were from the list that he gave me, and it really helped me to narrow down my list because he had already done so much of the searching for me,” Schneider said. “The list made me feel really comfortable with the process and took away much of the stress of finding the right school because I knew that I would be happy at any of the schools on my list since Mr. Gerelus had picked each school with me in mind.”

Another human-centered aspect of the college counseling process is the way the counselor manages students based on what they need. Some students need check-ins a few times a week while others prefer, and work well with, a less hands-on approach. For some students, deadlines are easy to meet. For others, more flexibility is required. Regardless of the circumstance, the counselors approach each student with a care and devotion that comes with the responsibility they shoulder.

“One of the things over the years that I’ve said to my families is, they are your kids and you raised them, but they are my kids too,” Salone said. “As a college counselor you are very much invested in your students. And I think that’s why we do this job, because we genuinely care.”

While every student is different, Gerelus and Salone agree, the most important thing for St. Andrew’s families is “trusting the process.”

“There is so much information out there,” Gerelus said. “Parents, understandably, want the best for their child and we have a huge responsibility in making sure options are there for their child. We take the time to remind them that we are actively advocating for their children and working with them in partnership for the best possible outcome. And if they trust what we are doing, those options and outcomes will be there.”

“So many parents and students told us at the outset to take a deep breath, relax, and trust the process,” Rory and Ned Quint said. “We hope other St. Andrew’s parents will follow that advice based on our very positive experience.”

“When considering colleges and universities, I was looking for a small to medium-sized school that would challenge me academically, pushing me to improve and achieve my goals. St. Andrew’s really helped me to build my skills of self advocacy, so I am always reaching out to my professors for help via office hours and email. I have already been assigned to write a thesis paper, and my experience with the St. Andrew’s senior research seminar prepared me for this.”

“St. Andrew’s did a great job preparing me for college. When I am assigned to write a paper, I often think back to the Oral History Project or the senior research paper and think, ‘If I could do that, I can write a four-page paper no problem.’ I’ve also noticed that my classes at St. Andrew’s have prepared me to explore different college classes, and I have a great foundation for all of the general education classes that I take.”

“St. Andrew’s prepared me for college immensely. My history classes gave me a fantastic context of knowledge and critical thinking that made the transition to college history simple. Mr. Dahlke’s philosophy class helped me to understand why I think the way I do, and apply the concepts we learned senior year to philosophy classes here. Frankly, my college classes are like St. Andrew’s classes. I’m super grateful for St. Andrew’s.”

“I have felt completely prepared for the workload I have gotten in college so far, especially since St. Andrew’s put such a strong emphasis on English skills and essay writing. Outside of academics, being pushed to do extracurriculars allowed me to feel comfortable joining clubs and societies. The transition to college has been fairly smooth, even for a university across the world, and I would attribute a lot of that to St. Andrew's.”

FIELD

“My strategy for a ‘crazy’ pandemic-era admissions cycle was to apply to 20 colleges. I was admitted to 10 schools and chose Tufts for the strength of its computer science and arts programs and for its cultural diversity. My college counselor helped me choose the classes that would give me my best shot at admissions and also prepare me to do the work. Hard as it was, Mr. Haight’s class meant that I easily wrote my first 15-page paper this fall while everyone else was grumbling and moaning.”

OF STUDY Industrial Labor Relations

FIELD

“St. Andrew’s prepared me by developing critical skills for success such as forming study habits and general work ethic. I never really valued those skills until I saw how many of my peers struggled to constantly get work done until deadlines started piling up. Additionally, the faculty set a great educational foundation that can be built on after high school. (Mr. Corkran’s AP Economics was harder than some of my advanced economics electives.)”

FIELD OF STUDY Biomedical Engineering and Finance

“One thing I loved about my time at St. Andrew’s is that my teachers took interest in my growth and helped me to develop my passions in STEM and economics. When I was visiting colleges, I wanted to find a balance between academic rigor and opportunities outside of the classroom, one that would allow me to push myself while building lasting relationships. That’s exactly what I found at Duke.”

FIELD OF STUDY Communications

“I was looking for a school that had strong academics that also provided me the opportunity to continue playing basketball. I ultimately decided to attend Boston College to pursue a degree and play on their men’s basketball team. Unfortunately, there was a head coaching change so my family and I made the decision to transfer to Miami University (OH). My St. Andrew’s experience prepared me well for college success. My teachers pushed me to be the best student I could be while supporting me along the way. Therefore, my transition was seamless.”

Q&A with Phyllis Robinson

In June 2022, Phyllis Robinson retired after 37 years of teaching at St. Andrew’s. At the time, she was the longest-tenured teacher on the faculty. Robinson, who transitioned from a math teacher to a science teacher during her time at St. Andrew’s, also evolved as an educator. When the Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning (the CTTL) was founded in 2011, she deeply embraced the research-informed teaching the CTTL helped translate to classroom practice. The inaugural recipient of the Finneran Faculty Scholar Award (the highest recognition for a teacher at St. Andrew’s) Robinson wasn’t just a superb AP Biology teacher – she also helped train other AP Bio teachers and was respected as an exam grader. During her time, she consistently supported colleagues in their growth and was supported by her peers as she grew as a teacher, even until her final days at St. Andrew’s. With that in mind, her parents, John and Betsy, established and endowed the Phyllis McV. Robinson Teachers Fund, which you can read more about on page 19. Known by all for her love of hockey (and the Washington Capitals), she graciously agreed to a Q&A reflecting back on her time at St. Andrew’s and life after teaching.

It’s been four months since you retired from St. Andrew’s. What have you been doing with your free time?

I am a Volunteer Ranger for the Maryland State Parks. I spend several hours on most Saturdays, running the small Nature Center at Patuxent River State Park, providing short drop-in programs for visitors and answering questions about the rich history of the park and about the trail system. I coordinated the other volunteers and developed Wednesday Workdays, which are two-hour sessions where we tackle maintenance projects around Patuxent River State Park, since there is no permanent ranger that can be spared to do that. We volunteers have taken it over!

I’m also a Volunteer Naturalist at Brookside Nature Center in Wheaton Regional Park. I helped with the bluebird monitoring program all summer, plus assisted in washing and refilling bird feeders once a week. But my favorite task there has been the Friday night Flying Squirrel program, where my husband and I teach visitors about flying squirrels. We “bribe” them by putting out sunflower seeds, and they fly in to have a snack while visitors watch and learn. We’ve been doing this for five or six years now - it’s pretty wonderful. While this program is currently

Continued from page 17

in hiatus, we hope to restart it sometime in the next year.

I am on call as a substitute at St. Andrew’s, and have subbed often during the first two months. It gives me great joy to see my St. Andrew’s family again – colleagues and former students alike. So you’ll see me around the campus occasionally.

Let’s see - I also spent two weeks grading AP Biology exams, and supporting other teachers in this task as a Table Leader. I visited family in California. And I got to go play in an ice hockey tournament in Iceland at the end of September, which would have been difficult to do if I were still in the classroom!

In August, when you typically would be gearing up to return to campus and preparing to get ready for the new school year, were there moments of cognitive dissonance

for you?

Summer was funny - it felt like a normal summer vacation, and it wasn’t until mid-August that things really began to feel different. I looked at the school calendar and noticed that new teachers were starting their orientation, or opening chapel was happening, or other familiar events were occuring. I did get a little wistful. And on the first day of classes, I went for a long hike with my husband, which was exactly the right thing to do on that day. So yes, there were moments of cognitive dissonance. I’ve been in school as a student or as a teacher my entire life, so this is a big change in the rhythm of my year that has felt so familiar and comfortable for so long. But I’ve adjusted, I think!

You were at St. Andrew’s for 37 years across multiple campuses with several Heads of School. What changed the most about St. Andrew’s during those years?

The expansion of the school is the most obvious big change! When I started, St. Andrew’s was a seventh-grade through twelfth-grade school. Adding the sixth

The Phyllis McV. Robinson Teachers Fund

Phyllis Robinson spent close to four decades teaching at St. Andrew’s. During that time, her parents, John and Betsy Robinson, were also members of the extended community. They watched with joy as Phyllis grew as a teacher, supporting and supported by her fellow faculty members. John died in 2021, during Phyllis’ final year at St. Andrew’s, but Betsy continued to watch Phyllis’ growth right up until the day she retired.

John and Betsy shared a lifelong standing interest in education - first their own, and then their children’s and their grandchildren’s, setting aside money to ensure they could support them all through college. Now that their grandchildren are completing their degrees, John and Betsy asked themselves who they could support next. The answer would be St. Andrew’s.

John and Betsy knew, even before John’s passing, that they wanted to give back to St. Andrew’s in honor of their daughter and what the school and her colleagues had done for her. With that in mind, they have established the Phyllis McV. Robinson Teachers Fund, an endowed fund to benefit faculty professional development at St. Andrew’s.

Named for their daughter, The Phyllis McV. Robinson Teachers Fund will award grants to St. Andrew’s teachers who wish to attend conferences, helping to cover expenses like registration, transportation, lodging, and meals. The gift totals $125,000.

“We wanted to give something back to St. Andrew’s because of everything everyone there had done for Phyllis,” Betsy said. “That’s what inspired us, and I’d do it again in a minute.”

“I have had so many positive, enlightening, and deeply thoughtful experiences at various conferences and workshops through the years. These not only allowed

me to improve my craft as an educator, but renewed my passions and forged connections with counterparts around the country,” Phyllis said. “I’m thrilled that this fund will enable my colleagues - current and future - to have similar experiences that will renew their energy and enhance their teaching.”

I have always felt fully supported in my teaching, from maintaining tried and true experiments to seeking out new ways to engage students and new ways to teach the core curriculum more effectively.

grade in 1990 was a momentous decision. I remember Jane Harwell, the sixth grade teacher, had a single, contained classroom of about a dozen students, where she taught all the core subjects. It was a crazy, experimental year. From those roots grew the fuller sixth grade, followed by the fifth grade and the formation of the Intermediate School. Eventually, we integrated what became the Lower School - creating the preschool through twelfthgrade St. Andrew’s that we have today.

Along that trajectory, the campus itself changed! First, we moved from the old Bethesda Middle School building on Bradmoor Drive to our permanent location here on Postoak Road. That transition was challenging, but our motto during that time was “flexibility and sense of humor” - both were needed in abundance. More growing pains occurred as we built the Student Center, followed by bringing the Lower School to this campus (and building the parking deck). Speaking of the parking deck, parking for employees went from easy to hard (think “parking off campus and being shuttled to campus”) to easy again! I dislike change,

as a rule, but all of these changes, spread over 30+ years, have helped make St. Andrew’s a beautiful, vibrant, cohesive school. It made me happy to come to work each day.

Various programmatic changes occurred, such as adding Honors sections to some courses, altering some of the graduation requirements to allow for more rigor and more flexibility, and moving athletics from the PVAC to the MAC and ISL conferences. Each of these (and other) decisions had pros and cons, but overall were implemented keeping in mind the underlying question of “Who are we doing this for?” – and the answer had better be “For the students.” Directly or indirectly, large decisions always affect the students, so making changes with them in the forefront of each choice is critical.

Finally, the work of the CTTL to help teachers become better at their craft, and to help students become the best student they can be, has provided a foundation that permeates so much of what’s happening in and out of the classroom.Teachers are empowered, and encouraged, to create lessons that engage and stretch students, using researchinformed strategies that work. Students have opportunities to learn how to learn, and also to help shape various initiatives such as the Finn Family Student Research Fellows working side by side with teachers to improve student learning.

Similarly, what changed the least about St. Andrew’s during your 37 years?

At the same time, St. Andrew’s is still St. Andrew’s. As a college preparatory school, we have always aimed for students to be successful academically. Yet joy and happiness are integrally linked to academic success. We always “knew” that to be true back in the day, and now we know that educational research fully supports the link between emotional self and intellectual self. I have always felt fully supported in my teaching, from maintaining tried and true experiments

to seeking out new ways to engage students and new ways to teach the core curriculum more effectively.

The size of the faculty has changed, of course, which ultimately changes the community feel. When I started at St. Andrew’s, the department heads met weekly (or even daily) before the school day, just to make sure everyone was on board just to get through the day. Over time, communication and other processes became institutionalized. A Google calendar provides information at the touch of a finger to anyone who needs it, emails make messages almost instantaneous, Academic Deans in the Upper School provide a single point of contact for each grade level, for example. It’s harder to know all your colleagues, simply due to size! Yet knowing and inspiring each other (as well as our students, of course) remains at the core of who we are. Faculty and staff share stories and ideas over lunch, or during chance meetings in the halls or the faculty room. Impromptu happy hours still occur. Life-long friendships are made, and remain. Just look at the number of faculty who met their spouse at SAES, and the number who return as substitutes or just to visit!

In addition, the ability to laugh at ourselves remains embedded in school culture. The Class Cup competitions during Morning Meeting in the Upper School is a way to throw a little lighthearted event into the start of a day. You can laugh at (and with) your fellow students who are attempting to do something goofy, in front of the entire Upper School.

And Mr. McMillen’s fashion sense, especially his bow ties. Always dapper, always seasonally appropriate - nothing’s changed in 30+ years.

You had a lot of time to reflect on this over the years – what, in your opinion, makes St. Andrew’s special?

I worked with top-notch colleagues and administrators for almost four

decades. While the personnel naturally change from year to year, the overall tenor remains exceptionally collegial and supportive. We help each other out. I’ve always been able to approach a colleague with “How do you suggest I do this?” or “What have you found to help student X to be more successful?” and I always got an answer, or at least a conversation. Wanting to help the students become their best selves has never changed. We’ve been accused of being a “nice” school - yet

that is such a true statement. For example, students sometimes let their quirky side show. Their classmates are amazingly accepting, even when someone doesn’t conform to current societal standards - it just doesn’t matter. They truly accept each other and those who may be different.

What is next for you now that you have time to pursue passions outside of teaching?

As I mentioned, I’ve been able to be a Volunteer Ranger with the Maryland State Park system, and I have increased the number of days that I staff a Nature Center, run a nature program, or build and maintain the trails. I also have more time to attend to my own (neglected) garden as well. My husband and I have time to travel, which has long been a passion of ours but curtailed by the requirements of the classroom. I can play in a late-night ice hockey game and not have to get up super early the next day. And, I get to return to St. Andrew’s as a substitute, which means I get to stay connected to the students and colleagues that have been such a huge part of my life for so many years.

The Road

BY KIRSTEN PETERSEN

What makes something a great work of literature? For the past 10 years, sophomore English students have been invited to wrestle with this query as they take on the Great Works Project, the signature academic experience for 10th-grade students at St. Andrew’s.

Voice, Choice, and Ownership

The Great Works Project, the signature academic experience for 10th-grade students, celebrates 10 years as part of the Upper School English curriculum.

The Great Works Project is an opportunity for students to read a book of their choice and advocate for why it should be read by all 10th-grade students. The project features three components: a persuasive essay, a visual display, and an oral argument. The students from each class who present the most compelling oral arguments advance to the Great Works speech competition; a panel of teachers, administrators, and winners from the previous year hear the arguments and choose two winners. Those books are ultimately read in the English 10 and Honors English 10 classes during the same school year.

“It comes down to voice, choice, and ownership. That’s the magic three combination that make it a project that we return to,” said English teacher Andrew Seidman, who has taught the project for nine years. “It’s become not just a capstone experience for the 10th graders, but also a living part of our school.”

The Great Works Project was conceived in summer of 2012 by English teacher Susheela Robinson and former English teacher Evan Brooke. Backed by

an Innovative Teaching Grant – one of the first curriculum development grants awarded to St. Andrew’s teachers by The Center for Transformative Teaching & Learning – Robinson and Brooke sought to answer their own probing question: “What can we do to help literature feel more relevant to students?”

“We wondered what would happen if we created a project that they could feel some ownership about, and that there was a true buy-in, something relevant to them,” Robinson said. “We started to think about this idea of, ‘What if they could stand before a panel and argue that something was great?’”

“The project, by its very nature, requires teachers to ensure it ages well, that it remains rigorous and relevant,” said Brooke, who now lives in Pennsylvania where she continues to teach while also working on a novel. “That insistence — on significance, on greatness, on endurability — is what the project asks the students to prove of the books they’ve chosen to defend. We owe it to them to make sure the project remains ‘great.’”

“Greatness,” in the context of this project, has been defined by the same seven characteristics since its inception: the book is considered a “classic” or part of the “canon”; it has a massive fan base; it has a cult following; it is continuously in print (it has “stood the test of time”); it has won major awards; it has been positively

reviewed by prominent critics; and it has inspired literary criticism. Each student must provide evidence for why their book of choice meets two of these qualifications before they can begin reading; from this point, they have a month to read the book and prepare their argument.

“We really shift our role from teacher to coach, and there’s something that really works for the kids in that,” Robinson said. “They see us as someone on their side, helping them to achieve this thing.

“There’s also this subtle shift in their introduction to rhetoric, in the sense that ‘I have control over using language in an effective way. I get to decide that.’ Because it feels different to them, and it’s right at the point when they are starting to be able to think critically anyway, it’s a magic moment of understanding, ‘Oh, my language and my ability to use it has some power.’”

Today, approximately 563 students have completed the Great Works Project, choosing works ranging from autobiographies to science fiction to read and defend. Eighteen of those students have won the speech competition with effective arguments for books like “The Kite Runner” by Khaled Hosseini, “Silver Linings Playbook” by Matthew Quick, and “Hey, Kiddo” by Jarrett J. Krosoczka – the first graphic novel to win.

“I see the project as making space for choice and for reading,” said English Teacher Morgan Evans, who has taught the project for seven years. “Some of the students are lovers of reading in sixth, seventh grade, and they just don’t feel like they have space for that in their day anymore. I love that the project makes that space for them to really take the time and read a book.”

Samantha Winter ’17 was one of the winners during the second year of the project. She remembers devoting extensive time and energy towards drafting and reciting her speech for “I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings” by Maya Angelou –and the thrill of winning.

“The Great Works Project was my

introduction to the power of rhetoric. When you're arguing any point (or trying to convince others that a specific book is the greatest of all time), it's a must to speak and write effectively, persuasively, and purposefully,” Winter said. “The Great Works Project helped me get comfortable with writing persuasively, speaking in front of crowds, and even competing against my classmates. Now that I'm in law school, I can confidently say that I still use these skills each and every day.”

The experience of the Great Works Project has evolved over the years, from a poster presentation and speech recital in MacDonald Hall to pre-recorded speeches that are now archived online. More signature experiences across all divisions have been created that are helping to nurture the Great Works winners of tomorrow, starting as early as a poetry slam in kindergarten, to TED Talks in fifth grade, to student-choice projects as final exams.

Ultimately, the project not only helps students cultivate critical reading, writing, and rhetorical skills, but also helps them shape how they perceive their own capacity for greatness.

“They begin to understand that they don’t need an outside source to tell them when their own work or their thinking or their writing is great. They begin to feel it, because they have a different language around it,” Robinson said.

MBE You Can Use!

The Center for Transformative Teaching & Learning at St. Andrew’s translates the latest research insights in Mind, Brain, and Education Science (MBE) into innovative teaching and learning strategies. In this recurring feature, we’ll introduce you to a research-informed strategy, how our teachers apply it, and how you can use it, too!

Playful Learning

When St. Andrew’s teachers talk about playful learning, they aren’t talking about students walking on stilts or swinging from a trapeze. Rather, it’s a self-directed, engaging learning experience that, when designed with certain elements, can boost a student’s longterm memory.

In playful learning, students have “a sense of plausible agency within the boundaries of what the teacher designs,” said Christine Lewis, Lower School’s Teaching & Learning Strategist and The Center for Transformative Teaching & Learning’s Lower School Head of Research. “Innately, the child feels they have choice.”

Playful learning encourages independence while also providing a structure for teachers to support students who need scaffolding. It is also social, multimodal, and always about inquiry. These elements come together to create an environment where students are actively learning and problem-solving.

Just a few examples of playful learning include partner sharing, a “museum walk” around the classroom, and learning mnemonic devices or songs. In this edition of “MBE You Can Use,” we are showcasing what playful learning looks like for a second-grade language arts class.

Playful Learning in Action

In Jenny Olin and Olivia Donaldson’s second grade classes, students experience playful learning as a way to reinforce their study of language arts. For example, students were invited to choose one of four activities to practice compound words: playing matching or “Memory”-style games, drawing pictures, arranging photographs of objects, and completing exercises on the iPad. Students rotated among the activities, socializing as they played. They wrote and spoke the words aloud, checking each other for understanding (“Is ‘birthmill’ a word? No, but ‘birthday’ is!”). When asked if they would do these activities again, the students responded with a resounding “yes!”

• Need to memorize your lines for a big presentation? Take them with you on a walk. Adding movement turns the task into a multimodal experience.

• Challenge yourself to complete a tricky level from your favorite classic platformer (Super Mario Bros., anyone?), leaning into each “fail” as an exercise for your mind.

• Grab a group of friends and visit an escape room, an experience that will definitely check off the “social” box - both for you, and for the criteria of true “play.”

How can you bring playful learning into your life?

Homecoming & Reunion

This year’s Homecoming & Reunion took place on October 15 and it was a day when hundreds gathered in celebration and service. The day began with the Lion-Cub breakfast followed by hundreds taking place in the annual Walk for the Homeless to benefit Samaritan Ministry. Afterward, the BAC hosted a tailgate, the alumni took on the JV boys soccer team, and students enjoyed food, music, and inflatables prior to Homecoming soccer games. The Alumni Luncheon took place with more than 150 alumni, former and current faculty, and current families in attendance. Alumni from classes ending in 2 and 7 held offcampus parties that night with the Class of 1982, the school’s first-ever graduating class celebrating its 40th reunion.

Alex Smith ’17 was inducted into the Athletics Hall of Fame due to his excellence in athleticism and in leadership. While at St. Andrew’s he was named AllMAC three times in lacrosse and All-Met Honorable Mention in 2016. During his 12th-grade year he was named All-Met Second Team for the 2017 season when he scored 38 goals with 21 assists and 45 ground balls. Alex Smith played short-stick defensive midfielder at Maryland, helping the team win the NCAA Division I National Championship in 2022 and was named to the Academic All-Big Ten Team three times.

Today, Alex Smith is beginning a career at Goldman Sachs in New York. In his free time, he plays professionally with the Premier Lacrosse League.

The 1991-1992 girls basketball season was the culmination of four years of outstanding athleticism and sportsmanship by three players from the Class of 1992 – Vania (Cooke) Flowers, Micheila Leighland (Zaahida Shakur), and Shondelle Solomon – who led the team to four straight PVAC banners and would inspire two more, totaling six consecutive championships from 1989 to 1994. The team went undefeated in the PVAC conference. The 1992 yearbook recalls this feat as being “predictable,” and with good reason: in the four years Flowers, Leighland, and Solomon played together on the varsity squad, the team lost only one conference game, to Edmund Burke School during their ninthgrade year.

2021-2022 annual report

The St. Andrew’s Episcopal School’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 financial performance resulted in a record operating surplus and positive cash flow. We benefited from historically high student enrollment, prudent expense management, and strategic financial decisions. All financial obligations, including our debt covenants, were comfortably met.

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, and the annual Gala. The school also completed the refinancing of its longterm debt near the beginning of its fiscal year (August 2021), taking advantage of incredibly favorable interest rates and term – 1.86% fixed for 20 years.

Looking ahead, the 2022-2023 school year began with an enrollment of 704 students, just shy of last year’s record of 707. A major renovation was completed this summer to the infrastructure of the main building, work that was financed to preserve the school’s hardearned liquidity.

The Board is encouraged by the positive financial results, as well as the continued strong support of our donor community. With your support, St. Andrew’s will continue to provide an extraordinary teaching and learning environment and fulfill our mission to know and inspire each child.

Why We Give

“St. Andrew’s was the dream school for our daughter and son. One of the numerous things we love and appreciate about St. Andrew’s is its authentic commitment to diversity, equity, and belonging among students, families, employees, and trustees. Both of our children believe they belong here, they attain positive academic achievements, and are both excelling in their extra-curricular activities. This is the reason why we are committed to giving and supporting St. Andrew’s — so the school can continue to be the shining light it has been for ours and so many other families.”

Why We Give

“We give to the Lions Fund as an outward expression of our commitment to investing in the village that has become critical to our son’s development. With intention, we aim to support the fund that affords children who may not otherwise have the opportunity to receive the enriching, educational experience offered at St. Andrew’s.”

MICHELLE AND TRISTAN HOLMES PARENTS TO TAYLOR

Why We Give

“We firmly believe that an outstanding education is one of the most valuable gifts that one can give a child. We have been fortunate to have the opportunity to partner with the talented faculty and administrators at St. Andrew’s to ensure that our children receive the exceptional education that all children deserve. The growth in academic confidence and sense of belonging that we have observed in our children is validation that this school is a good fit for our family. We give to the Lions Fund so that other families have the opportunity to choose St. Andrew’s for their children.”

class of 2022 legacy gift

A record gift of $284,156 from senior parents was given to fund professional development and financial aid.

St. Andrew’s is deeply grateful to the parents of Class of 2022 graduates for their generous Senior Legacy Gift. A tradition in its fourth decade, the Senior Legacy Gift is made through the Lions Fund each year.

The gift from the Class of 2022 families benefits the school’s Faculty Professional Development and Financial Aid programs. This fund ensures that faculty and staff can stay at the forefront of innovation within their discipline by seeking out professional development opportunities. This gift has also helped to ensure that students from a broad range of backgrounds have the opportunity to benefit from a St. Andrew’s education.

Thank you to our senior families of the Class of 2022 for leaving your mark and enriching not only the present but the future of St. Andrew’s.

Why I Give

“St. Andrew’s is an incredible place where I learned to engage in critical thinking, be a member of a team, and build long-lasting friendships. I am forever grateful for the foundation that St. Andrew’s provided for my personal and professional lives. It is for this reason that I regularly give to the Lions Fund. I know that my dollars go toward supporting the opportunities and challenges provided to every student in making them better and more successful in their own lives.”

Why We Give

“My sisters and I are amazed by how well St. Andrew’s has served all the cousins who have so many different interests and styles of learning. One school being a terrific fit for all of our Lions is a tall order and, remarkably, St. Andrew’s achieves this!”

The school’s first philanthropic priority each year is to secure broad participation for the Lions Fund, which supports the general operating budget. Each year, however, the school identifies a few specific needs for capital, endowment, or curricular programs. The following donors made contributions to endowed and temporary funds to respond to these needs.

TURF FIELD RESURFACING

St. Andrew’s was able to resurface

Brumbaugh Field, Hope Field, and the baseball and softball fields in spring and summer of 2020.

Bennett and Shannon Stichman Stichman Family Foundation

“St. Andrew’s gives so much to its students through its dedicated, nurturing, and research-informed faculty and staff. We are equally inspired by the community’s involvement, spanning from new families to alumni, in contributing to St. Andrew’s legacy. In reflecting on our family’s experience – and in dedication to continue strengthening opportunities for the faculty, staff, and programs – Mike and I chose to make St. Andrew’s a benefactor in our will. The future of St. Andrew’s is a philanthropic priority for us.”

— Kellie and Michael Bickenbach, P ’26 ’28

The Jess Borg Society

If you have decided to include St. Andrew’s in your estate plans, we would like to show you our appreciation by including you as a member of The Jess Borg Society, an honorary designation named for our founding Head of School.

Members are invited to the annual spring Lions Pride dinner with the Head of School and Chair of the Board, and are recognized in school publications.

“To Be Opened In 2022”

On April 18, 1997, St. Andrew’s celebrated the groundbreaking of the Postoak Campus. To commemorate the moment, a time capsule was assembled and placed in a military foot locker, which was affixed with the label, “St. Andrew’s Time Capsule To Be Opened In 2022.”

Twenty-five years later, we now know the contents of that time capsule, which range from newsworthy artifacts to mementos from the groundbreaking. There’s a Washington Bullets baseball cap and a ticket stub from one of the team’s final games before becoming the Wizards; a magazine cover depicting Comet Hale–Bopp, one of the most widely observed astronomical spectacles of the 20th century; and a custom license plate frame inscribed with “Lions On the Move,” marking the move from Bradmoor to Postoak.

Perhaps most notable of all the contents was a paper envelope filled to the brim with handwritten letters. According to directions written and signed by the late Joanne Beach, all students were instructed to write a few lines about what life was like in 1997.

Some students wrote about their time at St. Andrew’s and what was happening in the world in the late 1990s, while others introduced themselves and wondered at what their lives might be like in 2022.

April 1997
