On the Cover The new Student Center, scheduled to be completed in the Fall of 2016, rises over the current gym and Intermediate School building.

Need any more proof that St. Andrew’s is an excellent school with excellent students? This year, St. Andrew’s broke ground on a new student center, was featured by Time Magazine, earned an E.E. Ford Educational Leadership Grant and the boys basketball team won its first-ever MAC Championship. Meanwhile, students across divisions were honored with awards for academics, arts, athletics and service.

16 Construction grades

With work ongoing throughout the 20152016 school year, there’s the temptation to perceive the Student Center construction as a distraction to our students. That won’t be the case however, as our exceptional faculty is finding ways to integrate construction of the Student Center into their curriculum — from arts to academics, across all divisions.

Learning from our growth

“Early on in the process, I thought about construction as something we would endure and mitigate. Now I realize that the Student Center is more than an end reward; it’s an evolving, singular curriculum.”

ear Friends, A few weeks ago I was chatting with the father of a new student about the Student Center construction process, when a cement mixer started whirring. Before I could apologize for the noise, the father said, “When I see building like this, I know a school’s getting better. And what an opportunity for your students to watch it take shape!” For years I’ve been thinking and talking about how the Student Center will transform the Postoak Campus, improve student life, and enable our faculty and staff to be more creative and competitive. Early on in the process, I thought about construction as something we would endure and mitigate. Now I realize that the Student Center is more than an end reward; it’s an evolving, singular curriculum. When life gives you dust, study Brownian motion. Consider these design challenges, for example: How did site constraints and the school’s expectations — including our insistence that our current gym stay in use until our new gym has been completed, and that student life and teaching, rather than the two gymnasiums, be at the center of the building — create a real-world design challenge? How will our buildings and our new central quad complement each other and embody our strong sense of community? Or these questions for environmental scientists: How will the school complete a 43,000-square-foot expansion and simultaneously ensure that the rainwater that falls on our campus will be cleaner than when we started? How much of the building is made from recycled materials? Here’s one for our budding financiers: How has the school acquired the funds to pay for the project so quickly, while ensuring that our balance sheet will be even stronger at the end of campaign?


Philanthropy and refinancing are beautiful things. And for the rest of us, the big yellow trucks and tall cranes are great fun to watch. As you will see from the numbers and the stories on the following pages, 2014-15 was an extraordinarily successful year for St. Andrew’s, and 2015-16 promises to be even better. Our school-wide enrollment has again surpassed our projections and has reached an all-time high this fall. Our

saes.org

Students at the Center Campaign enters its public phase with full confidence that our community will lend its support. Our students are finding extraordinary academic, artistic, and athletic success. Our faculty’s expertise and reputation continues to grow, led by our Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning’s groundbreaking research and programs. With our recent accomplishments and the new Student Center rising before our eyes, I couldn’t be more excited and proud of our community.

In closing, thank you for supporting your children and St. Andrew’s so strongly, and for making our school’s growth a reality. Faithfully,

Breaking ground on the new Student Center

O

n May 8, with more than 500 students, faculty and friends looking on, St. Andrew’s Episcopal School broke ground on the new Student Center. In a ceremony that focused on the future while honoring the past, trustees, administrators, faculty, and students joined the school chaplains and the Bishop of Washington in putting shovels in the ground.

4

But these weren’t just ordinary shovels. Originally created in 1996 by St. Andrew’s students when the school broke ground on the Postoak Campus, these shovels were preserved for just such an occasion. The school’s largest construction project in nearly 20 years, the Student Center will transform the Postoak Campus not just when it’s complete in the Fall of 2016, but also during

its construction. As you’ll read later in this magazine, teachers throughout the school will be integrating construction of the Student Center into their curriculums. In just five months since those shovels went into the ground, progress has been breathtaking. The site was cleared and graded, temporary storm water management ponds were installed, conversion began on making the Middle School traffic circle a pedestrian quadrangle, concrete footers and walls were poured, steel beams went up, Ring Road was expanded and a sidewalk was added, and a new traffic circle was created in front of the Intermediate School. You can visit the St. Andrew’s website to view timelapse videos of construction. Thanks to the philanthropic leadership of the Board of Trustees and many other early donors, St. Andrew’s has raised nearly $10.5 million over the past two years to our “Students at the Center” Campaign, representing nearly two-thirds of the cost of the Student Center project. The Board of Trustees made the decision to being the project a year earlier than planned to prevent cost escalation and to provide this wonderful new building to our students as soon as possible. The Board has faith that the community’s philanthropy will continue now that we have broken ground on what will become the jewel of the Postoak Campus.

St. Andrew’s featured on Time.com

This research validates what so many teachers at St. Andrew’s intuitively knew, and now we have the data to affirm it. The most effective environment for student learning is one where they are both happy and challenged. Glenn Whitman, Director of The Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning

A year ago, St. Andrew’s students took part in a research study that their peers and teachers had a hand in creating. Working in partnership with researchers from Harvard Graduate School of Education that lead Research Schools International, St. Andrew’s and its Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning launched a study to discover how student happiness impacts motivation and academic achievement. Now, the mainstream media is finally paying attention to the results of the study. Time Magazine highlighted it in their education section in a piece written by Dr. Christina Hinton and Lauren Schiller of Research Schools International, which connects researchers at Harvard Graduate School of Education with schools that value an innovative “research school” model. Schools like St. Andrew’s, which is one of just eight schools in the world to be invited to be part of Research Schools International. The central questions of the study were: 1) How does happiness shape motivation and academic achievement at St. Andrew’s?; and 2) Which school factors support student happiness? Teachers and administrators at St. Andrew’s have long believed that happier students make for better students. That’s the reason those questions were selected by St. Andrew’s teachers as the first ones to ask as members of Research Schools International. Researchers from Harvard Graduate School of Education helped shape the question-

naire that was asked of the St. Andrew’s K-12 student body of which 94% (435 students) took part. Results of the study revealed that, on average, students who reported being happier had higher grades. Specifically, a statistically significant correlation was found between happiness and students’ GPA from elementary school through high school. The study also found that the quality of students’ relationships with teachers and peers were a good predictor of their happiness. “This research validates what so many teachers at St. Andrew’s intuitively knew, and now we have the data to affirm it,” said Glenn Whitman, Director of The Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning and a national thought-leader on implementing neuroeducational research in the classroom. “The most effective environment for student learning is one where they are both happy and challenged.” “Research shows that the best predictor of happiness is not income, gender religion or even health, but rather relationships,” said Dr. Hinton, lead researcher on the study. “St. Andrew’s provides a nurturing community that teaches students to build caring, supportive relationships. There is nothing more essential to students’ well being and happiness than this.” Dr. Hinton will be visiting St. Andrew’s on September 2 and 3 as The Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning continues its research partnership with Research Schools International.

Boys basketball wins MAC championship

O

n February 25, the St. Andrew’s boys basketball team made school history when they won the school’s first-ever MAC Championship in boys basketball. After putting together one of the best regular seasons in school history, the Lions entered the MAC Tournament, hosted by fifth-seeded Flint Hill, as the third seed. With a 47-44 win over Sidwell in the opening round and a 63-60 victory over St. James in the semifinal, the Lions secured a spot in the championship game

against host school Maret, which had upset top-seeded Maret in the other semifinal. The championship game, which can be viewed in its entirety on the school’s livestream channel (visit www.saes.org and find the link under “About”), came down to the final seconds. The Lions were able to hold off Flint Hill by scoring the final seven points of the game, overcoming a 54-53 deficit with two minutes to play, winning 60-54. Tyler Stewart, George Muresan, Marcus Adkinson and Jacob White all hit free throws in the final 10 seconds to turn a narrow lead into a championship banner. Adkinson, who was playing in his final high school game, scored 15 points. Adkinson signed a National Letter of Intent to play with Division II

Shepherd University. Stewart and Myles Law each had 11 points in the win while White and Muresan each added seven. The Lions led for nearly the entire game but Tyler Femi’s layup with about two minutes to play put Flint Hill ahead for virtually the only time in the game. But Stewart answered just seconds later with a jumper to put St. Andrew’s back on top for good.

The Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning receives $250,000 grant

T

he Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning has been doing tremendous work since it was launched in the spring of 2011. In April, it was recognized when St. Andrew’s Episcopal School and The CTTL were awarded a $250,000 EE Ford Educational Leadership Grant. The $250,000 grant is the largest one the EE Ford Foundation awards and it gives out an average of only four per year to independent schools across the country. The grant will be used by The CTTL to initiate a week-long Science of Teaching and School Leadership Academy that will train hundreds of exceptional public and independent school educators in Mind, Brain and Education (MBE) Science and excite them about continuing their careers in education. The CTTL, in partnership with Johns Hopkins and Harvard University faculty, will design and deliver the week-long academy while also measuring the efficacy of the program. “We are thrilled to receive the E.E. Ford Educational Leadership Grant, which affirms the distinctive strength of St. Andrew's faculty and the CTTL's success in improving teaching and learning for students here and in dozens of other schools,” said Head of School Robert Kosasky. “We are equally excited that our new Student Center

will enable the CTTL to expand its research and teacher training programs, including the Science of Teaching and School Leadership Academy.” The EE Ford Educational Leadership Grants address the question “What is the public purpose of private education?” Each year, they ask a more specific question for schools seeking a grant. This year, the question was “How might independent schools, working alone or in partnership with each other or with other organizations, better address the need to attract and retain the best teachers and administrators

possible, help these individuals see for themselves a future in independent education, and support the development of the future leadership that will be critical in the years ahead?” All EE Ford Leadership Grants are matching grants meaning St. Andrew’s will raise $350,000 from like-minded foundations and individuals to match the award. This is the fourth time St. Andrew’s has won a grant from the EE Ford Foundation, but neither of the previous two were Leadership Grants, which were first handed out in 2008. The previous times St. Andrew’s won was 1986 (professional development), 1999 (faculty laptop), and 2005 (service learning). The first Science of Teaching and School Leadership Academy will be held at St. Andrew’s in the summer of 2017 and is scheduled to take place in the new Student Center.

n late October, Michael McDonnellDiaz, then a senior, and Glenn Whitman, St. Andrew’s Dean of Studies and the Director of The Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning, spent a morning in Washington, D.C., at the Center for American Progress. The pair were part of a panel on The Cognitive Science Revolution. McDonnell-Diaz spoke first, touching on how cognitive science has impacted his classroom experience at St. Andrew’s. He discussed the way teaching has changed at St. Andrew’s over his seven years at the school. He touched on how assessments, specifically giving students choice in how they are assessed; the focus on effort, and the way in which students are asked to evaluate their own strengths; and study techniques, specifically self-assessments as a way to prepare for exams. He also spoke about the value of sleep and how critical it’s been for him that St. Andrew’s starts school later than other area schools, allowing him to get more sleep and be better prepared for learning. After McDonnell-Diaz spoke, Whitman was part of a four-person panel, along with Benedict Carey, science report for the New York Times, Dr. Mariale Hardiman, professor of

STUDENT CENTER

Constructing Curriculum

How the Student Center construction is impacting curriculum. BY DAVID BRANDT

M

ost people don’t think of a school building as being a teacher. But, as David W. Orr, a noted Environmental Studies and Politics professor at Oberlin College, points out, “Buildings have their own hidden curriculum that teach us as effectively as any course taught in them.” With the school currently engaged in the building of the new Student Center, due for completion in the fall of 2016, St. Andrew’s administration and faculty have implicitly recognized the same thing. Construction projects such as this one do not happen often at schools and this one is the first since the school moved to the Postoak Campus in 1998. The 43,000-square-foot Student Center will transform the Postoak Campus with its state-of-the art athletic space, airy Commons with comfortable seating, a café, and multiple gallery spaces to display student art, a multipurpose dance studio, and meeting spaces. The Student Center will also provide a true home for The Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning (CTTL). As Glenn Whitman, Director of the CTTL, expresses, the Student Center “acts as a convenient ‘lab’ in which St. Andrew’s preschool through grade 12 teachers can connect the content and the skills that Continued on page 18

they teach each of their students to the real world. There is no academic subject at St. Andrew’s that is not reflected in every phase of the building process, from its initial design, fundraising, and ultimate construction.” At the heart of St. Andrew’s abiding philosophy is the knowledge that a progressive curriculum increasingly reflects the fact that students learn in different ways. Sitting in a classroom with a single teacher imparting knowledge is not necessarily the only way or the ideal way to help children develop their abilities to learn and absorb and do original research in order to pre-

pare them for an unpredictable world. As the school’s Strategic Plan clearly states, “students deserve an educational experience that supports, challenges, and prepares them for the opportunities and expectations of an increasingly diverse and interconnected world. This education depends on a highly trained faculty that understands each student as a person and learner and on programs that unlock each child’s potential. Therefore, St. Andrew’s strives to teach students how to become efficient, confident, collaborative, and selfaware.” A curriculum that supports and challenges different learning intelligences requires innovative thinking and a fresh

approach to learning. “(The building of the new Student Center) provides opportunities to be both intentional and organic in connecting preschool through 12th grade curriculum and programming to various points and aspects of the building of the Student Center,” said Science teacher Chuck James. “For schools, a well-designed building is one that serves the needs of its institution functionally, culturally, socially, pedagogically, and sustainably,” said Carolie Sly of the Center for Ecoliteracy. “The best educational buildings not only serve these needs, but actively demonstrate and reinforce lessons beyond the classroom. They become hands-on teaching tools,

saes.org

heightening awareness of science, nature, sustainability, and other subjects.” The Student Center, according to James, presents a “visible and invisible world” for students in that they can literally see the building as it is being constructed, but that its evolution can also pose larger questions for them, inspire them, or make them see the world in a different way as a building has the capacity to teach lessons in a broad range of subjects including science, math, technology, history, poetry, and art. “Across centuries, whether sculptural and sacred, or pared down and pristine, architectural ingenuity and engineering finesse bring to reality the quirky shapes, ambitious designs, varying styles and

iconic cultural landmarks that serve and inspire,” James said. “Whether cathedral or cave, how we imagine, design, plan and construct buildings provides many powerful instructional themes across every imaginable content specialty.” Head of School Robert Kosasky believes strongly that the transformation of the Postoak Campus through Student Center project has curricular range and power. “It’s immediate and tangibly real: Our students will see the process each day this school year, and they will benefit from the finished building and quadrangle each day throughout their time at St. Andrew’s,” Continued on page 20

Continued from page 19

Kosasky said. “As alumni, they will clearly remember the impact that first construction and then the finished Student Center had on their St. Andrew’s experience. “For St. Andrew’s faculty, the construction process is a ready-made, year-long lesson in ‘design thinking.’ The project has clear purposes to evaluate: deepening programs, strengthening community, ensuring facilities reflect the quality of teaching and learning at St. Andrew’s. At every grade level, there will be powerful, engaging opportunities for our students. Whether our students are drawn to architecture, engineering, environmental science, finance, or a range of other professional fields, this year will provide special opportunities to get real-world experience without leaving school.” “We know from research that hands-on experience has a better chance of sticking in a student’s brain then rote memorization 20

or learning that takes place solely within a single class,” Whitman said. “Therefore, when teachers find a way for their students to get a hands-on experience with the new Student Center that is directly related to the content and the skills that they are teaching in their classes, then students see their learning as more relevant and memorable.” The St. Andrew’s faculty and administration began contemplating in earnest how to utilize the Student Center construction in the classroom at its end of year meetings in June. Chuck James and Lauren Cook, the Visual Arts department chair, led their colleagues on a visit to the construction site that broke ground on May 8 and guided them through a series of brainstorming activities to consider how they as teachers might effectively utilize the Student Center construction as a great learning opportunity for their students for the coming school year. The dynamic discussions proved fruitful

as the faculty came up with numerous ideas across divisions and academic disciplines that can and will be incorporated into classroom learning. In doing so, St. Andrew’s has created the pedagogical blueprint for enhanced instruction and student engagement for the 2015-2016 school year, one informed by teacher collaboration, elements of design thinking, and Mind, Brain and Education Science. Highlights of the discussion included themes centered on transformation, memory, foundations, progress, inspiration, creativity, new beginnings, the environment, history, physics, storytelling, community, creating, and sacred spaces. Lower School faculty saw the potential to provide their students with lessons on how machines and tools work and connect it to a field trip – what they affectionately referred to as “Bob the Builder” visits - to see how that equipment is being used in the construction of the Student Center. Other ideas included burying a time cap-


STUDENT CENTER

sule in the building’s foundation, creating a model of the Student Center with Legos, and Skyping in Morning Meeting with the Intermediate School to share progress on the building’s construction. In the Intermediate School, teachers look forward to discussing with their students how the aesthetics of the Postoak Campus will be altered not to mention how the environment will need to be taken into consideration as St. Andrew’s is aiming for Silver status in LEED certification by the U.S. Green Building Council. They also foresee having their students involved in such activities as calculating the number of bricks, screws, and other materials used in the building of the Student Center as well as having them write stories about the nature of building structures, especially as it relates to their own experience on campus. For Upper School teachers, the potential real learning opportunities and discussions that will arise in connection with the Student Center coming to fruition are seemingly limitless. As teachers are taking full advantage of the tremendous opportunity presented to them, what is most compelling is how significant they view such an opportunity. As Chaplain Patty Alexander attests, “It’s rare that students (or teachers, for that matter) have the opportunity to witness the ideas they discuss in a classroom being actualized and taking shape, literally, before their eyes. The architecture of the building also tells us about the values, interests, and activities of those who will use it.” “Students don’t often get to witness construction on a daily basis on a scale of this magnitude as buildings usually seem to ‘just appear,” said Biology teacher Phyllis Robinson. “To see the bones and guts of a building take shape, and eventually the whole Student Center spring to life gives students a sense of ownership and greater

appreciation once the building becomes usable.” In the opinion of History teacher Amanda Freeman, “the construction of the Student Center is a great learning opportunity because we can witness it every day and ask questions about it. The students get to see the changes and that will give rise to more questions and more learning opportunities.” For 7th grade Life Sciences teacher Kim O’Shaughnessy there is also a practical component to the Student Center’s construction. “Getting them to buy into its construction may help them to ‘own’ the building later and take great care of this new asset.” “I’m considering using the construction site to emphasize the impact that a story’s setting has on the overall narrative, especially when the setting changes,” said English teacher Christina Chalmers. “Their observations will most likely lead

to an interesting conversation on perspective and context. Also, since the theme of English 9 is Coming of Age, the evolving construction will serve as a ‘concrete’ symbol of transformation, which is especially pertinent to our 9th graders who will witness their own transformations in their transition to high school.” Assistant Head of School David Brown sums up the anticipation associated with the construction of the Student Center well. “The excitement on campus is palpable,” he said. “I remember in the spring seeing Intermediate School students with their noses pressed up against the glass to watch the bulldozer and excavators at work. The Upper School students are excited to watch the construction because they know they will enjoy the new spaces that will be created inside. Instead of closing the blinds and ignoring the obvious, we need to take advantage of this opportunity and excitement to enhance learning.” █

Challenge Campaigns Windover Foundation Challenge Grant

Omidyar Group Challenge Grant

EE Ford Educational Leadership Grant

In October of 2014, St. Andrew’s received notification of a $1,000,000 challenge grant to the building of the new Student Center made by the Windover Foundation. The Foundation has made this grant with the understanding that the St. Andrew’s community will match this 1:2 by November of 2019. To date we have already raised more than $1,200,000 towards the $2,000,000 challenge.

In February of 2015, St. Andrew’s was presented with a $1,000,000 challenge grant to the Students at the Center Campaign. The grant, while part of the overall campaign, was specifically directed to the CTTL and its programs. The grant was made with the understanding that the St. Andrew’s community will match this 1:2 by February of 2019. The matching dollars that St. Andrew’s raises will be directed towards the building of the new Student Center and the future home of the CTTL. We have raised more than $575,000 through June 2015.

In April of 2015, St. Andrew’s was awarded an EE Ford Educational Leadership Grant. The grant, in the amount of $250,000, is for The Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning to initiate a week-long Science of Teaching and School Leadership Academy that will train hundreds of exceptional public and independent school educators in Mind, Brain and Education Science. This grant was made with the understanding that the St. Andrew’s community will match this 1:1.4 by June of 2017.

message from the board chair White

Pardon our progress!

s we return to school, construction signs flank the entrance to the Postoak campus. While all is quiet at the front entrance of St. Andrew’s, a complete transformation is occurring in the back of campus. Over the summer Ring Road was widened to two lanes with new parking spots and sidewalks on the way. Construction on the 43,000-square-foot Student Center is well underway and it is impressive to see the steel structure becoming more defined each and every day. 26

In May 2013 the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to support the Student Center campaign with a sense of purpose and vision that we owed it to our students, faculty and staff to provide them with the necessary space and facilities to strengthen St. Andrew’s in every pillar: academics, arts, athletics and spiritual life. The original timeline for construction of the Student Center called for an April 2016 start date. As we began to meet with families asking for their support of the Student Center Campaign, a recurring question emerged; “This new building is just what our growing school needs! Can you begin construction any faster? ” So as campaign coffers began to fill, we explored ways to accelerate the groundbreaking and begin construction in 2015. The Board of Trustees, led by our Master Planning, Finance and Capital Campaign committees, responded the way our faculty and staff are known to do with our students, even when the challenge seems insurmountable: explore many options, think outside the box, work hard, be diligent and persistent. The Campaign continued to meet and exceed fundraising goals, thanks to our incredibly generous and supportive early campaign donors. The Board’s Master Planning Task Force worked tirelessly to steer the project through permitting requirements. Our Finance Committee determined how to use our school’s financial strength — the product of strong endowment growth and excellent fiscal management — to secure excellent up-front bank financing while fundraising continues. As a result, construction on the Student Center began in April 2015, a full year ahead of schedule.

To date, we have raised more than $10,500,000 and are two-thirds the way to our $16,000,000 campaign goal. More impressively, close to 90% of families asked to participate in the campaign have pledged their support, and many have given their largest philanthropic gift ever to the Students at the Center Campaign. The response from our community, including many families who no longer have students on campus and will see no direct benefit of the new facilities, has been overwhelming and a testament to the enriching and lasting benefits of a St. Andrew’s education. Moving forward at this accelerated pace and into the public phase of our campaign reflects our faith and belief that many more families, alumni, and friends will join the effort to build an even stronger St. Andrew’s for our students and faculty. Our ultimate success will depend upon the engagement and support of our entire school community. In the coming months you will have ample opportunity to learn of ways to support the Student Center Campaign, to hear from others in the community on why they support the Student Center, and to tour the construction site. This is a transformative time in St. Andrew’s history, and I encourage you to be part of it.

Warm Regards,

Sandy Horowitz

s we begin the 2015-2016 school year, the St. Andrew’s community has much to celebrate with record enrollment levels and the remarkable daily progress of our new Student Center. These achievements are possible because of the School’s continued strong financial position and the generosity of our community. Looking back to the 2014-2015 school year, St. Andrew’s saw another year of increased enrollment, achieved an operating surplus and delivered positive cash flow. These results reflect the strong financial stewardship of the School by the Board and administration that has been a consistent hallmark of our institution. In addition to growth in tuition revenue and careful expense management, the School’s financial health reflects the strength of the community’s commitment to the “Students at the Center” Capital Campaign, Lion’s Fund (Annual Giving), Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning and the continued success of our spring Gala. In May 2015, based on the School’s strong financial position and the progress to date of the Capital Campaign,

etihW

the School obtained new financing to begin construction of the Student Center a full year ahead of schedule. Furthermore, the anticipated summer 2016 completion date is two years earlier than originally planned. These transformative facility enhancements, which also include the recent full renovation of McDonald Hall and the creation of a design-thinking lab at the Lower School, reflect the commitment of the Board and administration to continually reinvest in our most important resources: our faculty and staff; our innovative programs; and our facilities, in order to maintain St. Andrew’s level of excellence and commitment to our students. The Board is encouraged by our positive enrollment trend that is reflected in growth in every division of the School, as well as by the continuing strong support of our donor community that enables St. Andrew’s to provide an extraordinary teaching and learning environment, so that we may know and inspire each child.

Leadership level gift reception Each year, St. Andrew’s recognizes those donors who provide a leadership level gift of at least $1,978 to the Lion’s Fund. (Not coincidentally, St. Andrew’s was founded in 1978.) Members of the community who made a leadership level gift were recognized at a reception in September at the St. Andrew’s Postoak campus. Attendees were also treated to a tour of the Student Center construction site. Please consider a leadership level gift to the Lion’s Fund.

ANNUAL REPORT

Senior Parent Legacy Gift The tradition began 30 years ago, when the parents of the Class of 1985 began donating their graduating seniors’ initial enrollment deposits back to the school as a gift. This year, parents were given the option to donate their deposits to Professional Development or to the Derek J. Park Fund for Creative Innovation to honor the memory of former class member Derek Park.

Why I give to St. Andrew’s “For the past seven years, the teachers, faculty and staff at St. Andrew’s have been my trusted partners; they’ve helped in raising my two sons. They’ve taught accountability, honesty, discipline and compassion — along with strong academics. When my oldest son recently graduated, he said, ‘St. Andrew’s is about the teachers; it’s about the relationships and I’m really grateful for those relationships.’ He’s right; it’s a place full of special people.” Colleen Shepard, Keenan ‘15 and Ryan ‘17

Why we give to St. Andrew’s

“St. Andrew’s encourages each student to achieve his or her maximum potential, while maintaining a kind and supportive community. A student’s strengths are fostered and, at St. Andrew’s, there is a genuine belief that there are no weaknesses, only challenges that students, faculty and parents work on in concert. We give because we want other families to have the same experience our daughter and we had.” Jack and Betsey Geise, Eleanor ‘08

From Postoak to Nashville A rising star in country music

BY DAVID BRANDT

K

elly Tillotson always dreamed of becoming a singer. The 2008 graduate of St. Andrew’s is making a lot of noise in the music industry, and the country artist can trace the realization that a career in music could be possible to her time at St. Andrew’s. “It had always been a dream of mine to become a singer, but it wasn’t until my senior year of high school that I realized it could be a real possibility,” Tillotson said. “I think it was a combination of my parents and teachers like Dr. Amy Wooley who opened my eyes to the fact that I could study music in college. I never knew I could also consider that as a ‘real’ career path.” Seven years later, Tillotson has broken into the music business in a significant way having recorded a solo album as well as one with her band MamaDear. MamaDear, in fact, was named “Best Up-and-Comer” by Rolling Stone magazine at the 2014 Country Music Association Festival. Such accolades have opened many doors for Tillotson and her band, including deals with Morris Higham Management and the Creative Artists Agency. This spring MamaDear played at the famed Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, which Tillotson called “a bucket list moment.” She also has had the opportunity to write a song with Nashville-based songwriter Tom Douglas, who has written Top Ten hits for country artists like Martina 48

McBride, Tim McGraw, Lady Antebellum, and Miranda Lambert. Tillotson, who enrolled at St. Andrew’s as a sophomore, claims that it was in high school that she began her first foray into contemplating music as a possible career. “The first song I wrote was in high school,” she said. “And it was definitely inspired by my life in Potomac. It was about the classic teenage love that many high school girls feel. The song was called ‘Unlock My Heart,’ and it was about a boy at St. Andrew’s I was head over heels about. Even though the songs I write now may not be overtly about Potomac, you always carry a part of your hometown with you.” “Every experience I had growing up in Potomac, and the people I grew up around, play a role in shaping your perspective going forward. Not only that, your hometown friends and family are always there for you, especially in careers like this. I couldn’t do what I do without the support of my hometown family, friends, and supporters,” Tillotson said. Tillotson credits her grandmother for introducing her to a love of country music. “My grandmother, who was originally from Tennessee, was very involved in our lives, and when she occasionally drove us around to school, soccer practices, and things like that, she would always have country music blaring on the radio. I would be serenaded by Garth Brooks, George Strait, and Reba McEntire, so that began my love for country music. As I grew older, I admired Martina McBride,

Faith Hill, and Shania Twain,” she said. It was at St. Andrew’s, a community that Tillotson remembers fondly as “warm and welcoming,” that she began to gain the confidence to believe that making music a career was a possibility. “Given my career path, my best memories understandably revolve around the music classes that I took,” Tillotson said. “Amy Wooley and Roy Barber were always incredibly supportive of my music. Mr. Barber would give me keyboard lessons so I could learn to play the songs I was singing, and Dr. Wooley would do the same thing for me on guitar. Dr. Wooley was also instrumental in encouraging me to begin writing my own songs, and always went above and beyond to help me find opportunities to perform. She took the time to help me figure out how music could play a role in my future.” Although she contemplated majoring in Neuroscience in college, the lure of making a career in the music industry proved too powerful for Tillotson. “Once I decided to pursue a career as a country music artist, I knew that I had to be in Nashville, and my mom and I had heard great things about Belmont University’s music program,” she said. “They had a wonderful Commercial Voice program that I majored in my freshman year, and in my sophomore year I switched my major to Songwriting. Belmont also gave me the opportunity to intern in different roles in Continued on page 50

Nashville’s music industry, which allowed me to grow my network in the industry, even before I graduated. I’m so thankful for the relationships I formed, and they have been instrumental in my band’s continued growth and success.” Since graduating from Belmont in 2012, Tillotson and MamaDear, which include her husband Parker Bradway and Daniel Wilson, have been writing songs, recording, and touring. This year should be an exciting one for the band as it plans to go into the studio to record their second album. The band, which is influenced by groups likethe Dixie Chicks, Alabama, the Eagles, and other harmony-driven vocal groups, will also be touring a great deal and playing in exotic destinations like Key West, Tahiti, Bora Bora, and Mexico, not to mention shows in Nashville, Atlanta, Greenville, S.C., and Washington, D.C.

“We just played the one in Washington, D.C. for my ‘hometown,’ and it was such a treat to see so many great friends from St. Andrew’s there,” Tillotson said. Despite the challenges of having “an unpredictable schedule and income, and getting worn out from traveling so much,” Tillotson would not have it any other way. “Some of the most rewarding moments are hearing fans say how much our music means to them,” Tillotson said. “When you see someone tearing up at a song because it hits home for them, or having fun and singing along to a song, that makes your day.” While 2015 is proving to be a busy and fruitful one for Tillotson and MamaDear, her long-term goals are to “make music that means something to people. I would love to use the platform of music to make a positive impact on the world. I’m thankful God has given me the gift of music and I want to use it well. It also wouldn’t hurt to win a Grammy or two along the way!” █

Star on the rise By Georganne Coco

“I really did feel like learning was an adventure and was something to be savored and enjoyed. And I feel like that was hugely helpful for me and gave me a love of all of that.”

teven Levenson’s star keeps rising. The 2002 graduate of St. Andrew’s saw his musical “Dear Evan Hansen” perform to positive reviews this summer at Washington, D.C.’s Arena Stage. Levenson wrote the script and worked on the musical piece with Michael Grief, a Tony-award winning director, and songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul. It wasn’t Levenson’s first play, but it was his first musical and a new and interesting challenge for him. “It’s a lot of moving parts,” he said. Playing at Arena Stage was a homecoming of sorts for Levenson, and not just because he is a native of the D.C. area. His love of the stage was ignited while accompanying his grandmother, who was an Arena ticket subscriber, to shows. Having the play in D.C. also gave him the opportunity for local support from Maryland-area friends and family, including his parents and sister, Liza Sulinski, who teaches fourth grade at SAES. Levenson came to St. Andrew’s as a sixth grader when the school was located at the Bradmoor Campus. He spent seven years as a Lion and lived through the transition to the Postoak Campus. Levenson has his feet planted in the TV world, as well. He moved to Los Angeles in 2012 and is currently a writer, editor and co-producer on the Showtime series “Masters of Sex.” The show is an Emmy and Golden Globe nominee and its third season just finished airing. He’s also written for several other TV series - “The Playboy Club,” “Vegas,” and “Wayward Pines,” a 10-episode series on Fox starring Matt Dillon that concluded in July. Levenson found his passion early. He was in sixth grade — his first year at

St. Andrew’s — when he played Ed Sullivan in “Bye Bye Birdie,” his first acting gig, which was directed by Roy Barber, an early influence. Barber, the former SAES theater director, had the opportunity to see “Dear Evan Hansen” during its D.C. run, which concluded in August. “I was fortunate enough that he came to see it and get to reconnect with him a bit, which was really lovely and gratifying,” Levenson said. “I could recognize his ‘voice’ and his humor in [“Dear Evan Hansen”] - as well as his understanding of adolescent loneliness and being misunderstood,” Barber said. The musical, which earned positive reviews from The New York Times and The Washington Post, and has been called “charming” and “witty,” is about a high school student, played by “Pitch Perfect” actor Ben Platt, whose social media profile goes viral after a tragedy. It will land in New York, off Broadway in spring 2016 at Second Stage Theater. Levenson is only 31, but he’s already racked up an impressive list of playwriting credits. His other plays include “The Unavoidable Disappearance of Tom Durnin,” which is about a man who tries to get back into his family’s life after serving a prison sentence for financial fraud and “The Language of Trees,” which he wrote at 21 and follows a family grappling with life at home while the father serves as a translator in the early days of the Iraq War. Theater was an important aspect of his life at St. Andrew’s, and he threw himself into it wholeheartedly, participating in performing arts throughout his time at the school, appearing in “The Crucible,” “Henry V,” and “You Can’t Take it With You,” among others. “That was my journey at St. Andrew’s,” Continued on page 52

he said. “I did a lot of performing. I did everything I could in terms of theater, and I really fell in love with acting; I also did a bit of writing at St. Andrew’s.” He also dabbled in poetry, encouraged by an English teacher he had in sixth and eighth grades – the late Barbara Thompson. “She was an incredible teacher, and she really inspired us to write. I started writing poetry a little bit in middle school and I’d share it with her, and she was incredibly encouraging,” he said. There were several other teachers who also helped guide him on his path. “In high school I got really interested in literature, and I had some great teachers - (Mike) Davila and Dresden Koons, who was my AP English teacher and was incredibly inspiring. Those teachers really helped me fall in love with words and with language. Mr. (David) Brandt was one of my American history teachers whom I think back on very fondly.” “Beyond being a good student, Steven was genuinely curious,” Brandt said. “He was seriously intrigued by popular culture, theatre, literature, and writing. He brought those interests to the classroom where he was a class leader in discussion. Not only did he show his great analytical chops in class discussion, but he was also very good humored.” Davila recalled Levenson as being “incredibly creative” and willing to throw himself into whatever he was passionate about. “You could tell in middle school that Steven was destined for a life in the performing arts,” Davila said. “His talent, enthusiasm, focus, and hard work have always been apparent, and to see him reach a much wider audience is simply fantastic.” Levenson looks back on his time at St. Andrew’s with fondness. “I really felt like I learned to love the process of learning, which sounds corny, but I do feel like that was something that was instilled in me, and I never felt like I was banging my head against a textbook and cramming for tests. I really did feel like learning was an adventure and was 52

something to be savored and enjoyed. And I feel like that was hugely helpful for me and gave me a love of all of that,” he said. After St. Andrew’s, Levenson continued acting while at Brown University, from which he graduated in 2006. During that time he began to move from acting toward writing. “I had some great teachers there who pushed me in that direction, and I discovered that it was more satisfying and more creatively stimulating to be writing rather than performing,” Levenson said. Barber was thrilled to hear that Levenson was writing at Brown. “I knew he would bring a rare sensitivity to his development of story and character. Steven could have done many things with his gifts, but I was somewhat selfishly happy that he was bringing his gifts full time to the theater.” After graduating college, Levenson headed to New York to pursue writing plays. “I was lucky enough to get a job with an off-Broadway Theater called ‘Playwrights Horizons,’ and I worked in the literary department there for two years reading plays and writing reports on them.” He also

helped plan the schedule and was writing on the side. It was experience he said was invaluable. After “The Language of Trees” run, he started writing full time. He spent several years in New York writing for theater and surviving on commissions from theater companies; he eventually decided to try writing for television and headed to L.A. Besides helping pay the rent, working in TV offers a change of pace and a collaborative environment. “You write on a staff of writers, which is a nice break from the solitary life of the playwright. And play writing is a nice break from being in a writers’ room all day.” His hope is to keep working in both worlds. “It’s such a great time to be writing for TV. There’s such great material and so many great stories. It’s a real pleasure and an honor to take part in that.” As Levenson keeps doing what he loves, he encourages students to do the same. “Something that I took seriously from St. Andrew’s is really following what you love and leaning into your interests even if they seem impractical or just seem like extracurriculars, really taking seriously your own passion,” he said. █
