FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL
Goal V and the Formation of Strong Leaders Dear SR Community: Each year, Stone Ridge focuses on one of the five Goals of Sacred Heart education as a focal point. This year’s focus is Goal V: Personal Growth in an Atmosphere of Wise Freedom. The pages of this magazine are filled with Goal V moments—whether that is Katie Ledecky ‘15 bringing home Olympic gold, our Class of 2016 valedictorian Caroline Conlan reflecting on the growth of her class over their years together, or Christina Papagjika ’98 providing insight into how getting rejected from Juilliard turned out to be the beginning of her wildly successful career. Goal V is about understanding the gifts and talents within each of us, and developing the habits of mind and body that will allow those gifts to flourish. It is an essential ingredient in the formation of strong leadership qualities that we see consistently in our Stone Ridge students and alumnae. Also included in this magazine are some highlights we share with great joy: outstanding alumnae awards; graduation day speeches, awards, and photos; reunion pictures; information about our Barat Awardees; and much more. The Annual Report which is included in the second half of the magazine tells a different type of story, but one that is equally impressive. Listed on these pages are the names of our generous donors and volunteers—individuals who are making a difference in the lives of our students and in the momentum of our mission through their generosity of time, talent, and treasure. The issue of women’s leadership in American society has reached a level of critical Fall 2016 | 2
awareness in recent years—whether through the lens of presidential politics, issues of equal pay for equal work, or discussion of the challenges of balancing work with family, the list goes on and on. Our generous benefactors and contributors are making a strong statement of support for the next generation of women when they invest in our Stone Ridge girls.
The upgrading of our physical space is absolutely essential to ensuring that our vibrant educational program remains at the forefront of all-girls, Catholic education. Our beloved campus remains an oasis for our community, but the reality is that some of these buildings were constructed more than seventy years ago. The time for physical renewal is now, and we will need the support of our entire community in order to make it happen. The highest priorities at the current time include space for instruction and performance related to our arts program, in addition to the need for an all-school cafeteria/gathering space. Stay tuned for more information as we identify the scope and timeline of this essential next step for Stone Ridge. As I conclude, I leave you with two final thoughts about community. The first is a word of heartfelt appreciation for the life and legacy of Mr. Frank Wright, Jr. Mr. Wright retired at the end of 2015-16 after learning in the spring that he had pancreatic cancer. We are deeply grateful to Mr. Wright for his 42 years as an educator, 12 of which were in the Stone Ridge Upper School. Our community grieves this loss together and
we continue to pray for his family and loved ones. And finally, a reflection on the insights shared by Marjorie Gillespie ‘87, our graduation speaker from last June. Dr. Gillespie spoke about happiness and the science behind the link of happiness to health. She pointed to relationships, generosity, and purpose as the fundamental ingredients to seeking happiness in one’s own life. In hearing her speech, I couldn’t help but feel terrific about the educational program and community that we provide. The Goals of Sacred Heart education and the mission of sending forth our graduates to be vehicles of Christ’s heart in the world are in direct alignment with these three ingredients. It is powerful and deeply rewarding to be part of a ministry that is such a force of goodness in the world. Our community is abundantly blessed. Warm regards,
CATHERINE RONAN KARRELS '86 Head of School

In the midst of an exciting 2016-17 academic year, I can also report my own excitement about some projects that the Board of Trustees and administration are currently undertaking. On the heels of our wildly successful and transformative Gators Go Turf project, we are currently undergoing two feasibility studies: an architectural study for our next major capital project and a capital campaign study to fund it. We will be conducting research within our community as part of these projects, and look forward to your input as we first dream together and then transform those dreams to vision and reality.

Sr. Cooke was interviewed on EWTN on August 17 during News Nightly. In response to a question about the distinct character of the seven Sacred Heart alumnae participating in the Rio Olympics, Sr. Cooke commented on the “real conviction of Sacred Heart and Catholic schools” and explained that these women understand that there is a responsibility to use the talents that God has given them and share them with the community. Sr. Cooke added, “The grace with which they win—there is such an evenness and celebration, of not just themselves, but of all the people with whom they are competing and have helped them get to where they are.”

Deirdre Cryor ’84 served as Head of Upper School at Stone Ridge from 2000-2006. In July of 2016, she returned to her Sacred Heart family as the Head of School at Country Day School of the Sacred Heart, Bryn Mawr, PA. For the ten years before coming to Bryn Mawr, she served as President and CEO of St. Mary’s Academy in Englewood, CO. Head of School Catherine Ronan Karrels ’86 and PreKindergarten teacher and former Head of Lower School Kathryn Bonner Gillick ’89 attended Ms. Cryor’s installation along with former Headmistress Anne Dyer, RSCJ ’55. Mrs. Karrels spoke on behalf of the Board of the Network of Sacred Heart Schools and represented Suzanne Cooke, RSCJ, Head of the Sacred Heart Conference, who was unable to attend. Mrs. Karrels noted that she had every confidence that Ms. Cryor under-
stood and embraced Madeleine Sophie’s vision both in her work and in the manner in which she lives her life. “Your commitment to students and their formation as servant leaders is a true gift,” said Mrs. Karrels. She also remarked, “Our foundress, Madeleine Sophie said, ‘Our one passion should be the love of Christ and the desire to make Him loved.’ You have dedicated your life’s work to that great ministry—as a committed Catholic school educator and leader who fully embraces Sophie’s vision of bringing Christ’s heart into the world through the vehicle of education. Through your steadfast work over the decades, you have reflected how your own goals and values align with the Goals and Criteria of Sacred Heart education.” The Stone Ridge community congratulates Deirdre Cryor on her new role and will continue to pray for her and her family at Sacred Heart. www.StoneRidgeSchool.org | 5

STONE RIDGE HIGHLIGHTS In renaming our Early Childhood Program to Little Hearts, our Lower School’s Early Learning Program, we are excited to highlight where the love of learning begins in our Sacred Heart family at Stone Ridge. In keeping with the mission of the School, Little Hearts is focused on the development of the whole child. By incorporating the Goals and Criteria of Sacred Heart education, our program provides the first exposure to a Sacred Heart education for boys and girls from three months through Kindergarten age.
• Blocks Center • Gathering Place
The Little Hearts Early Childhood classrooms engage the hearts and minds of young children using developmentally appropriate practices based on information about how children develop and learn; their individual strengths, interests, and needs; and their family cultures and community. They learn to ask questions, solve problems, respect themselves, and care responsibly for others. Our cognitive expectations, taught through research-based best practices, The Creative Curriculum, and The Project Approach, promote exploration within a structured and nurturing learning environment.
Opportunities are created for child-centered inquiry, purposeful play in support of essential learning, teachers to form community with children in the classroom, and children to construct their own knowledge. Constant and close student observation and assessment guide the teachers in reflective and purposeful planning and teaching. When children move on from the Early Childhood classrooms at Stone Ridge, they are able to transfer their social, emotional, and cognitive skills to their future school and life experiences.

GRADUATION 2016 GRADUATING LEADERS OF THE FUTURE: Caroline Conlan ’16 Delivers Valedictory Address When I was in eighth grade, I almost made the biggest mistake of my life. On the way to the Stone Ridge accepted students night, we almost turned the car around because I was convinced I did not want to go here. I almost lost 83 sisters that night, 83 incredible young women that I could not imagine my life without. But here’s what happened instead. I went to accepted students night, and I listened to a senior from the Class of 2012 speak with eloquence and passion about how much Stone Ridge meant to her. She talked about the beauty of the Social Action program, the value of a Sacred Heart education, and how all of it made her into the person she had become. Here was a girl who could not be more proud to go to her school. The very next night, I said “yes” to Stone Ridge. Only now can I fully appreciate what she was talking about. From my very first day as a Stone Ridge girl, I knew there was something special about this school. But after four years of working side-by-side with all of you to serve the marginalized in our community, four years of sports games and musicals and art shows, of Feast Wishes and Bonfires and singing Coeur de Jesus at the top of our lungs, of standing by one another through our deepest sorrows and celebrating our greatest victories, I have come to understand that no other group of people could ever feel more like a family than the students, faculty, and staff of Stone Ridge. And we have all worked so hard to get to this moment, the culmination of our Stone Ridge education where we can finally say we know what it means to be a child of the Sacred Heart. So what comes next? Thanks to Dr. Hogan, there’s something we learn early on at Stone Ridge called the Monomyth, the Hero’s Journey. It’s the story of how the brave and noble throughout time have gone out into the world to achieve great things, and the challenges they overcome before returning transformed. It’s something l have thought about a lot over the years because one of the most important things I have learned at Stone Ridge is a firm belief that it is never too early to start changing the world, to be a hero. I see it when Alice speaks about the importance of inclusion, when Dani volunteers in the emergency room, and when Giselle makes Starbucks runs for the whole senior lounge. I see it every day, in every one of you. Whether you are speaking up in front of the Fall 2016 | 12

school to make a difference or simply making the world of a difference to one another, I am constantly amazed by the way each of you gives of yourself for what you believe in.
and dignity. And I know I will never forget what I saw when I walked into the church on the day of his funeral. Girls from years past, from all across the country, had left college and flown into town to be with each other during a time of such tragedy. To me, that is what it means to be a Stone Ridge girl. Even though we will no longer be students here, we will always be part of the Stone Ridge family. And when we need each other, we will always come home, home to the place where we are most loved, to where we have learned, where we have found God, where we are the best versions of ourselves, home to our parents and loved ones who have guided us throughout our time here, and home
to one another. Home is where the heart is, and my heart is with Stone Ridge, and with all of you.
My beautiful Class of 2016, thank you for the best four years of my life. As you embark on your adventures, may you never lose that light in your eyes every time you talk about serving others, may you approach life with the celebration of a Congé, and may you lead with all the wisdom of a life lesson from Mr. Ish. You are heroes, and you are my sisters, and I could not be more proud.
CLASS OF 2016 OFFERS PARTING GIFT From the words presented by the Class of 2016:
Like in all the most epic stories, our calls to adventure come right in the middle of things. Right when we have passed our hardest classes, and formed the closest friendships, we are called, called to go off to college, find our passions, and pursue them to the ends of the earth. All at once, we step out into the unknown. But we do know this: We have been blessed with teachers who have put their hearts and souls into giving us a Sacred Heart education, families and loved ones who have supported us in all we do, and countless others to whom we owe our success. Whatever trials and challenges await us on our adventures, have faith that we have been well prepared. And after we have changed the world in a way that only each of us can, remember that the most important part of the Hero’s Journey is coming home. This past February was hard on all of us. We lost an incredible man who touched so many lives. I know that none of us will ever forget the example Mr. Duffy gave us of compassion
When thinking about what gift we could give the School we love so much, the Class of 2016 thought it would be most fitting to honor Mr. Kevin Duffy, who was a member of our Upper School faculty and who died from cancer in February. Throughout our high school experience, our teachers have consistently been a steady source of strength for us. They showed an incredible amount of fortitude in supporting the Stone Ridge community, especially this past year. The Class of 2016 wanted to do something to return the endless support that we have received in many of our difficult moments by installing something at Stone Ridge that will serve as a constant reminder of Mr. Duffy’s presence. We have created a bookshelf that will be incorporated into the library in his honor. The bookshelf was handmade and handpainted by members of the class and was inspired by a quote that was prominently displayed in his classroom: “I’ve always imagined paradise to be a kind of library.” The back of the bookshelf has a painted scene of paradise, to remind us that Mr. Duffy is in heaven, with all of his favorite literary classics. Members of the class donated some of Mr. Duffy’s favorite books. We hope that this bookshelf will serve as a constant reminder of Mr. Duffy’s generous spirit and sharp intellect. We also hope to return some of the strength and support to our beloved teachers
as we understand the deep loss they felt this year with the passing of their truly remarkable friend and colleague. As a second part of our class gift, we decided to donate to our class’s favorite part of Stone Ridge, the Social Action Program. We hope that this gift will help Stone Ridge in bolstering Social Action, the program that the Class of 2016 credits with cultivating a sincere love of others and a critical consciousness for social justice within our school community. We would like this money to go towards providing more opportunities for students to serve the global community in what we hope will be a lifelong commitment to service. The final part of our class gift is handwritten “thank you” notes to the dedicated members of our maintenance, housekeeping, and SAGE dining service staff. As a class, we wanted to personally thank them for their dedication. The Class of 2016 would like to encourage Stone Ridge students to make sure that all members of our community feel their inherent value every day. Our class has strived to be an example of Goal IV: the building of community as a Christian value. Through the small gesture of expressing our gratitude, we hope to encourage the underclassmen to make our Stone Ridge community a place of love and support for everyone.

GRADUATION 2016
ONE MATTRESS OR TWO? REMEMBER THE RGP. by Dr. Marjorie Gillespie ‘87
Relationships
It is a real honor and a privilege to speak here in this special place on this special day. And I am grateful to you for providing the opportunity.
We all know that friends are important. But neuroscience tells us how important. Turns out that people who are lonely have the same brain chemistry as those in extreme physical pain. That is why experiencing loneliness can be as devastating as, say, a broken leg.
It is hard to explain just how special it was to me being at Stone Ridge in those days. The Sacred Heart tradition was both such a normal (but also special) thing in my family that I even had a statue of Mater in my bedroom. The five Goals of the Sacred Heart were the goals to live by. Girls, you have lived those and your families have helped you make that happen.
So, a question to ask yourself in life is, “Whom can I call on in a personal crisis?” And, especially as Stone Ridge graduates we should be asking, “Who will feel free to call on me when they are in a crisis? Am I there for them? Am I willing to go the extra mile to fix their pain?”
Generosity Now, as you step out into a world where you get to make choices, and where most others have not been raised by those five Goals, and your parents aren’t there, what will you do? I remember that freedom of getting to college where you suddenly are faced with so many choices and so many freedoms. I wondered what I could possibly say to you that hasn’t been said over and over before, or that isn’t a cliché you are already tired of hearing as worldly-wise 18-year-olds. Shall I tell you about academic success or about my work with poor communities in London? Do you want to know what it is like to be inside a prison? But my mind kept returning to Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa. You see, one of the unforeseen consequences of my becoming a doctor is that I have climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro five times as an attending physician. The question I pose to you today, as you step into this world of new freedoms and choices is quite simply this: Do you want to be a one-mattress person or a two-mattress person? I’ll come back to this question in a few minutes, and make sense of my slightly obscure question, I promise. I imagine you all came here today expecting to hear me say how relationships are more important than Lamborghinis. And how doing something you are passionate about is more powerful than simply having power through your career. About how you should enjoy your youth, work hard, act honourably and give to others. Not to chase instant gratification. And while I affirm all those things, I think Fall 2016 | 14
Marjorie Gillespie ’87 speaks at Graduation 2016
there’s a more important story to tell: a story about your lifelong happiness. Those are the choices you will have to make: What kind of person do you want to be? As a doctor, I come from the work of evidence-based medicine. I am interested in the facts that explain the science. And there is science about the choices that make happiness. Turns out it isn’t about how many Porsches are parked outside your house. It isn’t about how much money you have in the bank. It isn’t even about how many degrees you have.
And happiness matters: Happy people are healthier, they live longer, they endure the bumps and bruises of life better. They form communities and they even recover faster from cancer. Neuroscience helps us understand what makes humans tick. We can count endorphins, we can measure cortisol. We can chemically measure happiness and pain.
We’ve all heard the old adage that it is better to give than to receive. But the neuroscience research actually backs that up. Giving a gift creates more anticipation, more excitement— and more endorphins in the brain than buying something for yourself—even something very nice. Yeah, and they also measure that in the World Happiness Report. And sadly, it turns out that in England people spend more money buying greeting cards than they give to charity. So, a question to ask yourself as Stone Ridge graduates is, “Who have I given to?” I don’t mean necessarily some big donation. I mean a coffee for someone who is usually forgotten, or a small birthday gift for a friend, or some coins in the Salvation Army box or the collection at Mass. And of, course, none of us should forget to make an annual contribution to alma mater, Stone Ridge, no matter how modest that contribution is. It will make you, and Stone Ridge, happy.
Purpose Now most of you want a science-free summer but indulge me here for just a moment. For all you future psychology and social science majors, this stuff counts, and it matters in economics as well, and is summarized in the “World Happiness Report.”
So, from analyzing those chemicals in your brain, we know real happiness depends on three things. I call them the RGP: Relationships. Generosity. Purpose.
Pleasurable brain chemicals form when we anticipate, and we look forward to something. We get more pleasurable brain chemicals from waiting for what we want than from actually finally experiencing it. The anticipation of Christmas morning is always more exciting than whatever is under the tree. Throughout life, we need goals to work toward. Our brains function better and produce more endorphins when we have a focus. The actual achievement of those goals is
almost secondary. And, yes, you guessed it, the World Happiness Report also shows this too. Now what does all that talk of neuroscience and RGP have to do your life, your choices? What does it have to do with Mt. Kilimanjaro and, even more important, what does it have to do with mattresses? As a doctor, I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro to accompany people on fundraising trips for good causes. These were purportedly people who were willing to undergo hardship and do a long, strenuous, low oxygen, high altitude trek in Africa to raise money. We started off in short sleeves, among banana trees and ended up five days later in ski jackets walking to the summit on ice in the dark.
On my very first trip, I found that two types of people do these fundraising trips: those who sleep on one mattress and those who sleep on two. On day one, some people were cheerful and outgoing, thrilled to be there. Others were quite blasé. On day two, as blisters began to form, some people shared their Band-Aids, their trail mix, their sunblock and even carried someone else’s heavy backpack. They were the ones who were always smiling, laughing, telling stories along the way. They told of how they had done fundraising bake sales and yard sales and stood outside the supermarket on Saturdays with a fundraising box. They cared about the kids the non-profit was supporting and spent a long time getting the sponsorship money together to come on the trip. Other people, however, kept to themselves. Someone had to be carried down on a stretcher with a sprained ankle on day two. I asked some folks for help—passing messages, getting the stretcher—but these folks just didn’t move a step out of their way to help. They weren’t shy folks. In fact, that morning they had come to me to complain about sleeping in huts on such uncomfortable mattresses. They were demanding two mattresses. Now, we are in a national park on the side of a mountain where we have had to carry in everything we are going to use. There is hardly a spare egg and water to boil it, let alone a spare mattress. But they didn’t see it. I try to solve everyone’s problems on these trips, from lost suitcases to blisters to altitude sickness, but I couldn’t solve this one. www.StoneRidgeSchool.org | 15
GRADUATION 2016 On my Kili trips two and three and four and five—and the other mountains and treks I did—this pattern became clear. Those folks who demanded two mattresses were those who had received corporate sponsorship to come on the trek. They hadn’t formed a fundraising community, they hadn’t reached out to others, and they hadn’t been working hard towards the trip for a year before it happened. They sometimes didn’t even know what the non-profit was all about. And, on the side of the mountain, they wanted their two mattresses. The trip was about them and their needs, despite the raging storm outside our flimsy hut. This is just unacceptable. “I am willing to pay for the mattress, you know,” was their chant. They lacked generosity and a real sense of purpose, and were, as a result, truly lonely. So, lifelong happiness is not about being able to buy two mattresses. It is about the RGP: Relationships. Generosity. Purpose. The one-mattress sleepers were the ones who kept in touch with their fellow trekkers. They are the ones who have pictures all over their basement and share them with their friends and family. They are the ones who cannot pass by the Salvation Army box without putting in some coins. They are the ones who keep doing stuff for fundraising and volunteering. Many of them decided to change jobs when they got back to choose work that had more meaning for them. The one-mattress sleepers are the ones who are remembered by their peers as really awesome people. Endorphins all around. Happiness for them and enough to share. The two-mattress people are too selfish to notice they are excluded. The two-mattress people are immune to the Salvation Army box. Not an endorphin in sight. So, now you’re about to embark on your adventures, climbing your mountains. You have choices at college and beyond. The five Goals of Sacred Heart you have learned and lived here at Stone Ridge have given you a great start. Now, as you embark on your adventures and climbing your mountains, remember the RGP: Relationships. Generosity. Purpose. Invest in them to build your genuine happiness. Be a one-mattress person and the rest will follow. Thank you and best wishes for a life filled with happiness.

Dr. Gillespie was destined to be a Sacred Heart girl, in fact, she was the fifth generation in her family to attend Sacred Heart schools. Her great-great grandfather dedicated one of his houses as a convent in order to bring the Sacred Heart nuns to Puerto Rico. Marjorie’s mother was later a boarding student at that school. When her parents moved to the Washington, DC area from Colombia, where Marjorie was born, they intentionally chose a home that would be a reasonable driving distance to Stone Ridge. One of Marjorie’s first memories is of being interviewed by Sr. Anne Dyer ‘55 when applying for Kindergarten. After spending her lower and middle school years here, when Marjorie was in high school she chose to explore her British roots and became a boarding student at the Sacred Heart School in Woldingham, England, for two years before returning to Stone Ridge. During her senior year, she had an internship next door. This was long before Navy Med transformed into the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, so instead of waiting in the security lines we know today, Marjorie would simply cross through a hole in the fence to work as a medical lab research technician. After graduating from Stone Ridge in 1987, she completed her bachelor’s degree in anthropology at Harvard College. While a student at Harvard, she was active in Scottish dancing and Latina affairs. She was also a coxswain for the rowing team, a passion she would continue when she was a medical student at the University of Oxford.

7 Upon completion of her medical degree at Oxford, she trained as a general practitioner and worked in one of the most socially deprived housing estates in London where her bilingual skills made her a unique asset to an Hispanic community troubled by poverty, crime, and murders. Following a Public Service Fellowship and master’s in public administration at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, she is now a medical director of the largest independent healthcare provider in England and provides primary care services accessible to all, including prize-winning care inside 31 prisons. Marjorie lives in London with her two children.

Stone Ridge Welcomes INTERIM HEAD OF LOWER SCHOOL
SANDY GILLESPIE
Ms. Gillespie has worked in education for more than 35 years, serving as a classroom teacher and special education teacher for 20 years before becoming an administrator. Most recently, she spent 15 years as the Head of Lower School at the Duke School (on Duke University’s campus) in Durham, NC, overseeing the Preschool through Grade 4 program. After receiving an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education and Special Education, Ms. Gillespie earned her Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Kentucky and completed graduate work in UK’s School Administration Leadership Program, granting her principal status in Kentucky. She is certified as an Elementary and Exceptional Children teacher, and has extensive experience with curriculum instruction and designing and implementing professional development programs for faculty to create a strong professional learning community. A Kentucky native, Ms. Gillespie attended an all-girls Catholic high school in Louisville, which she credits with helping her gain confidence and the skills to become a strong leader. She understands the benefits and the deep community values that are instilled in one’s spirit through Catholic education, and she values the lifelong impact of belonging to a Catholic school community.
current state of knowledge about the evolution of the universe, including a close look at the early universe through an examination of microwave background radiation as well as research on mysterious dark matter and dark (vacuum) energy and the birth and death of stars and their role in generating black holes. The course also delved into a close look at various planets within our solar system as well as the Sun, and in particular how life on Earth developed and flourished thanks to several lucky factors: our position and axis of rotation relative to the Sun, our Moon as a stabilizer of our rotational motion, and the planet Jupiter as a great defender against bombardment from dangerous, fastmoving bodies like comets and meteors. Finally, the daily lectures were supplemented by inspiring presentations from other professors at Cambridge on topics such as the hunt for exoplanets (planets orbiting other stars in our galaxy) and new research on the development of life after the Ice Age. The continuing education program at Cambridge brings together a diverse and global group of students including undergraduates, educators, professionals, and retired seniors. Studying with such an interesting mix of minds and doing so in a revered educational institution will undoubtedly allow me to bring new insights on teaching back home to Stone Ridge. The experience was so enriching and engrossing, and I found myself truly loving to learn for learning’s sake. It was a wonderful feeling to expand my horizons both in physics and in teaching. One of my favorite aspects of teaching physics is to show girls that our understanding of the universe, of space, and even the building blocks of matter is not static but is continuously evolving. Students are often surprised and inspired to find that there is still much to learn. In my AP Physics class, I
walk my students through the changing theories of gravity, from Aristotle’s arguments for a spherical Earth surrounded by stars moving in circular paths to Galileo’s Sun-centered system that views our sun as one of many that make up the galaxy. My students explore Newton’s realization that the same force that accelerates an apple falling Dr. Robin Catchpole of the Royal to Earth is also causing the Observatory in Greenwich Moon to fall around Earth to perhaps the biggest leap of all, Einstein’s Theory of Relativity and the realization that gravity is not a force at all but rather a bending of space, much like the ripples and undulations on the surface of an ocean. Completion of this course allows me to talk to my students with more authority on the most recent revelations about the universe, from a clearer picture of the early universe and the formation of our solar system to more abstract phenomena like dark matter and dark energy. Whether taking in the classical architecture of Selwyn College where I stayed, or meandering through its beautiful English garden and beyond to other colleges in Cambridge, or soaking up the wealth of information provided by my professors or engaging with my fellow students in discussion over our sit-down dinners in the beautiful dining hall, the whole experience was something I’ll never forget. I met other professionals and students alike who have been coming back year after year, and now I know why.
The Thomas and Barbara Hoy Fund for Faculty Development is an endowed fund available to faculty who have served at Stone Ridge a minimum of seven years, and is intended to support pursuit of courses, activities, projects, or other professional development experiences that enrich the teachers’ deep respect for intellectual values, as expressed in Goal II of Sacred Heart education. www.StoneRidgeSchool.org | 21
current and former students waiting at the baggage claim, ready to give her a large group hug. “To have them here and to celebrate this with them right away is great,” she said. After arriving back home, Ledecky attended two separate assemblies for the Lower and Upper Schools, and allowed students to ask her questions on both occasions. When one student asked her what it felt like to be a role model for students her age, Ledecky said, “It is an honor.”
Stone Ridge’s
Golden Girl When Katie Ledecky, a graduate of the Class of 2015, returned to Stone Ridge after competing in the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, she advised students to set big goals for themselves. Ledecky spoke from experience because while she was in Rio, she reached all three goals she had set for herself in 2013—to win the 200-meter freestyle, to break 3:46 in the 400-meter freestyle, and to break 8:05 in the 800-meter freestyle. These are all goals that Ledecky had once considered to be unrealistic. While reaching her goals in the 400- and 800-meter races, Ledecky also broke her own world records. She came home with gold in the 200-, 400-, and 800-meter individual freestyle races, gold in the 4x200-meter freestyle relay, and silver in the 4x100-meter freestyle relay. Ledecky said as she stood on the medal stand, receiving her medals, she thought about all of the people who helped her get there, including many people from Stone Ridge. Fall 2016 | 22
Ledecky frequently talks about how grateful she is for the support of the Stone Ridge community, which was rallying behind her through a virtual watch party, with students and alumnae everywhere posting pictures on social media using #SRCheersLedecky.
The support extended beyond Stone Ridge to the entire global network of Sacred Heart schools, as Ledecky was joined by several other Sacred Heart alumnae in Rio. Ledecky shared a suite in the Olympic Village with Lia Neal, who is a graduate of the Convent of the Sacred Heart in New York. Ledecky and Neal were joined by K.K. Clark, another Sacred Heart alumna on the US team. Alumnae from schools in Canada, Mexico, and Australia also competed in the Olympics.
She also visited the Preschool, where the students gave her pictures that they had drawn and boasted about their swimming accomplishments, saying, “I can dive on the diving board!” and “I’ve taken lots of swimming lessons!” At each assembly, Ledecky stood by the exit of the gymnasium and allowed each student to stop and look at the five medals that she wore around her neck. At the assembly for the Upper School, Ledecky told the students, “I don’t think I could have done the things I did over the past four years without going to Stone Ridge.”

While Ledecky hopes to compete in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, she is taking everything one step at a time. She is first looking forward to heading to Stanford, where she has chosen to get a college education and compete in NCAA swimming over the opportunity to make potentially millions of dollars in endorsements. She said she plans on working just as hard, if not harder, at academics as she does at swimming. As Ledecky travels to California to begin a new chapter in her life, she will take a little bit of home with her, as she said her friends, family, and school community “make me who I am.”

She is one of the youngest producers in the business. In 2013, her first feature film featured seven Oscarwinning actors, was #1 at the box office, and quickly became a worldwide blockbuster. Her latest Broadway show won every Best Musical award possible including six Tony Awards, three Oliviers, a Grammy, the Dora, and is now playing in six cities around the globe. In May, the US touring company of her award-winning musical premiered at the Kennedy Center’s Opera House in Washington, DC, where it received rave reviews and played to sold-out audiences. Meet Christina Papagjika, Stone Ridge Class of 1998. When Christina entered Stone Ridge in the fall of 1992, becoming a film and theater producer was the last thing on her mind. “I was a dancer,” she said in a recent interview. In addition to Stone Ridge’s rigorous academic schedule, Christina spent countless hours after school, often late into the evening training and practicing her craft. “I was passionate and dedicated.” Christina, a native-born Washingtonian, grew up surrounded by music. Her mother, an attorney by profession, was also a classically trained pianist and graduate of the Peabody Conservatory. “Our home was always filled with music.” Not only did Christina perform on stage in local dance recitals and in the Nutcracker ballet at Christmastime, but she was also taken to the Kennedy Center whenever a show came to town. West Side Story and A Chorus Line were just two of the productions that inspired the young dancer. “I remember the excitement and anticipation that I felt just before the curtain would rise; it was truly magical.”
Christina Papagjika ’98 (far left) with the cast of Kinky Boots during a private conversation wtih the Stone Ridge audience
During her high school years at Stone Ridge, Christina followed the call of her own drumbeat. She enjoyed all the fun and zest of her senior year: the Halloween Congé dressed as musicians from the ’80s; the Christmas Dance when she wore a fashionista black dress and choker pearls; and her time volunteering with the White House Correspondence Office and as a member of S.A.F.E. for Social Action. When it came to teams, it’s Bold Gold. Christina’s serious side glowed in her studies and as a senior she was named a Maryland Distinguished Scholar. “I had big dreams of performing on Broadway, and during my senior year at Stone Ridge, I applied to Juilliard in New York. It was the most competitive undergraduate program in the country: Only one-half of one percent of all applicants are accepted. I secured an audition, which was considered to be a big deal but didn’t make the final cut. At the time, I
was devastated, but in the end, I believe it was fate that took me in a different direction.” Following her graduation, Christina entered George Washington University, where she studied dance and communication, specifically broadcast journalism. She spent summers as an intern at the local NBC affiliate and the more she learned about television production, the more interested she became. Upon graduation, she was www.StoneRidgeSchool.org | 25

3 Ridge family,” she said with a great deal of pride, “and to be here at the Kennedy Center, where I spent so much time as a kid is absolutely thrilling.” Kinky Boots is a musical that was inspired by true events. A struggling shoe factory in Northampton, England, is the setting for this literally high-stepping, fast-moving, utterly delightful show. The storyline first appeared as a documentary film. Then Grammy Award–winning composer Cyndi Lauper and multi-Tony Award–winning playwright Harvey Fierstein got into the act, and turned this nice little story into everything a great musical should be: lots of catchy songs, great choreography, clever dialogue, and memorable characters.

4 offered a full time position with NBC and her reputation in the industry grew. Then one day, she got “the call,” a life-changing event that only seems to happen in dreams. Christina had the remarkable opportunity to interview with Richard Frankel, a prolific Broadway producer and the genius behind mega hits Hairspray, The Producers, and more. Christina expected the interview to last a mere 20 minutes but made a connection that morphed into a two-hour conversation and was quickly offered a job in the company’s marketing and advertising department. Long days and late nights became Christina’s way of life in New York, as she worked for industry-leading producers on hit shows Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein, Wicked, and more. “Grueling hours,” Christina admitted. “It takes stamina, but when you are doing what you love, the hours don’t seem to matter as much. I asked a million questions and learned everything I possibly could in the process. I was—and still am—passionate about what I do.”
In 2009, Christina made the leap into launching her own production company, placing her first investment in the highly acclaimed play War Horse, which opened at Lincoln Center and went on to receive the 2010 Tony Award for Best Play.

“Accept someone for who they are,” lead character Lola instructs the shoe factory workers, and in the show’s grand finale, “Raise You Up/Just Be,” everyone does exactly that. The entire cast of thirty-two factory workers and drag queens alike strut and dance in the most delicious-looking, incredibly high, sparkling kinky boots. For Christina, it is the ever important and timely message of acceptance that sold her on Kinky Boots.
Christina possesses the talents that a good producer needs: spotting the right show in the works and making insightful decisions as to what audiences will like. “There’s an instinct that you develop, a sense that you’ve come across a compelling story. It’s important to know what elements are required both creatively and financially for a production to have the best shot at success.” As an independent producer, Christina was involved with the successful Broadway revival of Annie in 2012, and the 2013 blockbuster film Lee Daniel’s The Butler, starring Forrest Whitaker, Oprah Winfrey, Jane Fonda, Robin Williams, Lenny Kravitz, and Cuba Gooding, Jr., to name a few. Based on a Washington Post article, “A Butler Well Served,” the film version tells the story of a White House butler who served eight American presidents over the course of three decades.
The show, now in its fourth year on Broadway, garnered six Tonys as well as several Olivier Awards in 2016 for the London production. At the time of the US tour stop in DC, Christina was gearing up to shepherd new productions in Australia and Japan. Kinky Boots has already been playing in New York, Toronto, London, and Korea and by the end of 2016, productions of Kinky Boots will literally bestride the world on four continents. Kinky Boots isn’t the only show that keeps Christina on the go. Her art house cinema, The Family Fang, starring Nicole Kidman, Jason Bateman, and Christopher Walken opened in May 2016 at the Tribeca Film Festival. Her next and highly anticipated film, Rebel in the Rye, is due in theaters in 2017. Based on the life of the celebrated author J. D. Salinger (The Catcher in the Rye) and written/directed by Danny Strong (The Butler, Empire, Game Change, and Hunger Games Mockingjay), Rebel in the Rye features an impressive cast including Kevin Spacey, Nicholas Hoult, Sarah Paulson, and Laura Dern. “Vibrant!’ exclaimed Melissa Prather, Director of Institutional Advancement at Stone Ridge. “I loved the show. What a great tale to tell! It reminds you to accept who you are.” One of the attendees at the Kennedy Center performance was Patty Wimsatt Myler ‘64, whose daughter, Caitlin Myler Taylor, was a classmate of Christina’s at Stone Ridge. “The last time I saw Christina,” remarked Patty at the reception, “she was dancing in our backyard before Prom.”

As they say in show biz, Christina, you’ve come a long way, baby.

“Working on The Butler was a magical experience and I was honored to be a part of the telling of such a deeply moving and meaningful story,” said Christina. “I loved the cast and creative team and working with them was a dream come true. Spending time on the set with Robin Williams is a memory that I will cherish for forever.” This past June Stone Ridge friends and alumnae gathered at the Kennedy Center to celebrate Christina’s success and see six-time Tony winner Kinky Boots. “It means so
much for me to bring this special show home to DC and to share it with my Stone

REUNION 2016 · OUTSTANDING ALUMNAE AWARDS The Outstanding Alumna Award recognizes an alumna who has made significant contributions to her community or profession. The Outstanding Alumna demonstrates her dedication to the Goals and Criteria of Sacred Heart education, commitment to excellence in her life’s work, her loyalty to Christian values, and selflessness in service to others. Stone Ridge School of the Sacred Heart is honored to recognize three exceptional alumnae this year, Matilda Giampietro ’66, Golden Outstanding Alumna; Regina Fay Gannon ’86, Outstanding Alumna; and Colleen Zorc ’11, Young Outstanding Alumna.
Matilda Giampietro '66, Stone Ridge Golden Alumna Award Recipient In addition to raising her own four children, Matilda has dedicated her life’s work to helping countless children and adults find, develop, and enjoy their musical abilities through singing and dancing together. Currently, Matilda serves as the music director at the Washington Montessori School in New Preston, CT. Matilda also teaches at the Center for Montessori Teacher Education in NY and teaches world music as an adjunct faculty member at Western Connecticut State University.

in Montessori Music and Movement in the United States and around the world. She has been delighted to share and learn music and dance traditions in Africa since 2013. This June, Matilda will work with The Syria Fund and fellow leaders to bring music education to Syrian refugee children living in Jordan. When asked of Matilda’s impact, her colleague Carole Korngold said, “Matilda brings song, dance, and joy to teachers and students. Her gifts create community, add laughter, and empower all she touches!”
“As a scholarship student (along with three of my younger sisters), I benefited profoundly from my Sacred Heart education. The Sacred Heart Goals that were instilled in us were powerful. In my years since graduation, the Goals have always been present in my life. I see the ripple effect of my SR education in the life of my four children and my students; and in my work in Kenya, Burundi, China, and Jordan for Syrian refugee children.

The “Hooray for Hollywood” 2015 Auction Gala and Dinner was a huge success thanks to the extraordinary leadership of our 2015 Auction Co-Chairs Carey Hollensteiner and Meghan McMurtrie Quinn ’87. The proceeds from this event are critical to the funds raised in carrying out our mission, and they help ensure the vitality of Stone Ridge’s day-today school operations as well as specific enhancements to our programs. Equally important is the opportunity that this event affords us to celebrate and spend time together as a school community. Without the combined effort of hundreds of members of our community, we would not have the impressive array of items, unique experiences, and lasting memories that we had this evening!
“I was so pleased to help with this year’s auction! It made me proud to give back to my alma mater, and for my three daughters who attend SR, to witness everyone coming together to create an event to benefit their school and friends.” MEGHAN MCMURTRIE QUINN ’87 Auction 2015 Co-Chair

Barat Reception May 2016 •
Honoring philanthropy and leadership within the Stone Ridge community
On May 5, 2016, Stone Ridge held a festive reception to thank the many Leadership Donors who gave generously to the School during the 2015-2016 school year. Philanthropic gifts to the School have a profound impact on the growth and well-being of the School, enriching our girls’ experiences and enabling them to pursue their goals. As part of the evening’s festivities, the Barat Medal is awarded to those individuals in our community who have been especially impactful in advancing Stone Ridge through their sustained philanthropic and/or volunteer support. This year’s recipients have helped to shape the destiny of the School through their tremendous leadership. For that, we are eternally grateful.
Ellen Dugan, MD ’70 In recognition for more than five decades of stellar engagement in the Stone Ridge family, for her leadership, vision, and modeling of Sacred Heart values, we honor Ellen Dugan with the 2016 Barat Medal. As a second-generation Stone Ridge girl, Ellen is an exceptional alumna role model for our girls. As a student, Ellen was a leader in the School, excelling as a three-sport athlete, playing hockey, basketball, and softball. She also served as president of the Social Club, which coordinated the School’s social action initiatives; and was the photography editor of the yearbook and a candy striper at Holy Cross Hospital. Over the years, Ellen has held countless roles in the community. When her daughters, Michael Anne and Caroline, were SR students, Ellen was a Class Parent and served on the Parent Association. After they graduated, she served as an Alumnae Board member and Alumnae Reunion Class Cheerleader. Ellen then went on to serve on the Board of Trustees from 2007-2013. As a Trustee, she chaired the Committee on Trustees and also acted as the Board representative to the Sacred Heart Commission on Goals process. Since 1987, Ellen and her husband Dennis Cullen have generously supported Stone Ridge. Fellow classmate and past Chair of the Board of Trustees Eileen Mayer said, “I am so proud to be able to call Ellen my first friend,
Fall 2016 | 40
friends since we were both 5 years old. She epitomizes what a Sacred Heart woman is—smart, caring, giving, loyal, and dedicated. She is the perfect example what we recognize with this very special award.”
“We were taught we could do anything and with that it becomes our responsibility to ‘impel to action’ and be participants, not just observers as we go through life. This is one of the many reasons it is important to sustain our Sacred Heart traditions. Stone Ridge students and alumnae are the best reflection of who we are and what we stand for.” — Ellen Dugan, MD ’70
Martin and Lisa Payne For their passionate engagement in the Stone Ridge family, their leadership, generosity, and most importantly, their joyful Gator spirit, we honor Martin and Lisa Payne as recipients of the 2016 Barat Medal. Martin and Lisa have played a strong role in Goal IV by building community and bringing people together in support of our girls. Over the years, the Paynes have demonstrated tremendous philanthropic leadership, helping to further the School’s mission by supporting the capital campaign, annual fund, golf tournament, and auction. Lisa has been an active volunteer, serving in every capacity from Auction Committee member to Co-Chair, and Class Parent to SRPA Community Service Chair. Lisa’s photography and technology prowess have remained constant in her volunteer support. After countless Committee positions, Lisa went on to serve as Co-Chair for the 2013 Auction. As the eighth grade Class Parent, Lisa played a significant role in planning the class trip to NYC. Lisa has also been the chair of the Community Service Committee of the SRPA for four years. Through this role, she helped launch and sustain “Parents' Day Out” in partnership with the Yellow Ribbon Fund to care for the children of injured service members

successfully raised $6 million towards the Gators Go Turf campaign in one year. His impact will forever be felt on our campus.
Our daughters have developed lifelong friends at Stone Ridge: ring sisters, chorus/band chums, sports teammates, and lab/project partners, and we all expect our daughters to find that, for we all have those friends from our own time at school. As parents we found something at Stone Ridge that we never expected: How magnificent is it that some of our closest—and we know they will be lifelong—friends, have also come from this Sacred Heart journey!” — Martin and
Mark truly understands and loves the Sacred Heart mission. He has been steadfast in his participation in the Network of Sacred Heart meetings and formation, always wanting to go deeper in his appreciation for the history and mission of the Sacred Heart. As Harvey Seegers, the current Board Chair, noted, “Mark is the epitome of the servant leader in the Catholic intellectual tradition. He selflessly provides his time, treasure, and talent—not for any personal ambition, but solely to benefit the common good of the Stone Ridge community.”

The deep friendships and shared Sacred Heart community are gifts that I will cherish forever.” — Mark S. Richardson www.StoneRidgeSchool.org | 41

THE YEAR IN REVIEW 2015-16 LETTER FROM THE BOARD CHAIR My Jesuit education taught me to give without expecting anything in return. As I conclude my final year as Chair of the Board of Trustees, the rewards of serving Stone Ridge have far exceeded my contributions, and I am proud of the tremendous momentum we have established. During my term, the Board has worked closely with Head of School Catherine Ronan Karrels ‘86, her administration, and the faculty and staff to refine curricular programs addressing the School’s critical needs as a thriving 21st-century Sacred Heart learning community. This curriculum growth led us to the first Campus Enhancement Project of our Master Plan, the Gators Go Turf campaign. Following its successful conclusion last March, the Board worked with the development team to improve our investment in the School’s future. We met our fundraising goals and made steady progress engaging alumnae and parents in the life of the School. I thank all alumnae, parents, faculty, staff, and volunteers who supported Stone Ridge this year. On June 9, 2016, we celebrated the accomplishments of the Class of 2016 at graduation on the steps of Hamilton House, sending them off to some of our country’s finest colleges and universities. I believe that due to your philanthropic support and volunteer efforts, this class of Stone Ridge girls embarks on their next journey better guided by the five Goals of Sacred Heart education than any of the generations of alumnae who preceded them.
LETTER FROM THE CHAIR OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
As we conclude our Goal IV year
The primary role of the Finance Committee
celebrating “the building of community as a Christian value,” I am pleased to present this year’s Annual Report, with thanks to each of you for your devoted commitment to Stone Ridge. Reading these pages, I hope you will be moved by the content reflecting so well the Goals our Sacred Heart School holds dear. As our students recount their journeys, alumnae share their experiences, and parents impart their wisdom, this magazine’s stories owe their existence to your generous time, talents, and philanthropic commitments.
is to ensure good stewardship of the School’s financial resources. As Chair of the Finance Committee, I am pleased to report that the School’s operating and capital budgets were in balance for the fiscal year 2015-2016, due to strong enrollment, successful development efforts, income from summer programs and other sources, and careful management of expenditures. The School is in a very solid and sound financial condition.
Your gifts this year totaled $2,058,258 in support of Stone Ridge, consisting of proceeds raised through the Annual Fund, Special Gifts, and Special Events including the “Hooray for Hollywood” Auction and the Golf and Tennis Classic. Every gift has a direct impact on the faculty and girls. Gifts this year provided professional development for our faculty; sustained our Social Action program’s services; and supported our diverse Athletics and Arts programs, which educate the whole child in mind and body. Finally, I want to acknowledge the time and efforts of our hundreds of volunteers who drive the success of these fundraising programs and events. KAREN DAHUT Chair, Development Committee
Furthermore, the Finance Committee stewards the School’s financial sustainability by monitoring the investments in the endowment. These endowed funds and investment reserves help to ensure Stone Ridge is in a strong financial position to maintain and enhance its facilities, provide much-needed resources for financial aid,
and continue to support faculty and staff salaries and professional development in an effort to be competitive with those at the best peer schools. I am grateful to the members of the Finance Committee for their dedication, hard work, and commitment to the School. On behalf of the Finance Committee, a special thank you to those who philanthropically supported Stone Ridge School of the Sacred Heart this year. Please know your investment in Stone Ridge has enabled the Board of Trustees, the administration, and the faculty and staff to continue to provide an exceptional Sacred Heart education for girls in the Washington, DC, area.

Annual Fund Gifts Contributions to the Annual Fund enable the School to provide professional development for faculty and staff; support the academic, athletics, and arts programs that educate the whole child as an expression for mind, body, and soul; and provide financial aid for 30% of our student body. Thank you to the 1,441 individual donors this year who contributed more than $1.1 million during the 20152016 school year. This support would not have been possible without the dedicated team of volunteers who reached out to their peers to support the School.

This year was a celebration of service to others as a whole Stone Ridge community. I was so incredibly pleased that families from all three school divisions joined faculty and administrators in providing assistance to members of the community in which we live and work. Whether it was helping feed the homeless (Cup of Joe), organizing home goods for those in need (A Wider Circle), or caring for the children of Walter Reed injured service persons (Parents' Day Out), our Stone Ridge community put their faith in action.

Stone Ridge is really allowing my daughter to blossom. It’s not just that the school is challenging her academically in a supportive environment every day; it’s that the school is educating the whole girl. Beyond academics, the arts, and physical education, the school also teaches her how to be a good friend and a good citizen. Contributing to the Annual Fund allows the school to continue to do what it does so well.
In Memoriam
To notify the School of a death, please contact Michael Anne Cullen ’95 at 301.657.4322, ext. 376.
Stone Ridge extends our sympathies to alumnae, current families, and current faculty and staff who have lost loved ones.
