In June, The Bishop’s School awarded diplomas to each member of the Class of 2020 and held a commencement ceremony on the Quad. That may sound familiar, but as with most events this spring at the School and throughout the country, it was different than before. Graduates adorned in their robes came to campus with their families in physically distant 10-minute increments over four days to receive their diplomas, followed by a virtual ceremony for the class on June 19. When we began the year we could not predict how COVID-19 would affect our campus, nor how different the spring would be for our students. On March 13, students left campus, faculty transitioned from in-person to distance teaching and learning, and we re-opened online in short order. The mode of teaching changed dramatically, but our goal did not. We remained committed to providing the best instruction possible, and we maintained the close and caring relationships that provide the foundation for meaningful learning. The success of this sudden transition to distance learning is a story about the adaptability and resilience of our students and the selfless dedication of the faculty and staff to the young people in our care. We also did not anticipate our society’s sudden awakening to historical racial injustice experienced by Black Americans. Racism has plagued this country for 400 years, and it has weighed like a national anchor on the promise of liberty and equality for all. Perhaps because racism is so deeply woven into our society, we have become conditioned to it. What may have surprised us earlier in the year—senior class president Annie Cramer ’20 declaring so sensibly and poetically that Black Lives Matter—made perfect sense in her commencement speech on Juneteenth. In my commencement address, I shared that confronting these two illnesses—COVID and racism—are fundamental to our Episcopal values and the purpose for which The Bishop’s School was created by Ellen Browning Scripps. I explained that Miss Scripps had supported the abolition of slavery, and she was a fervent supporter of Abraham Lincoln and his goal of equality for all. Later in life, she became an advocate for improved public health for the most vulnerable. She established The Bishop’s School in partnership with the Episcopal church so that it could graduate students who would advance the cause of social justice. This year I was informed that Dorothy Williams, Bishop’s headmistress from 1975 -1983, had left a substantial contribution in her will to The Bishop’s School earmarked for financial aid, making it possible for generations of future students to fulfill the promise offered by Miss Scripps. I am certain that both women would be delighted to see, in the pages of this magazine, how many of our alumni are leaders in the fight against COVID, and that they would hope to see our graduates working for justice everywhere. The importance of this School and the

90 DEGREES

With a pandemic advancing around the world, The Bishop’s School pivots to distance learning and steers its way forward as a mission-focused community with a heartfelt message: We are going to be OK.

90 degrees; heading in a clear direction, but a different one,” he says. While campus planning was moving at breakneck speed, the coronavirus was moving faster. COVID-19 updates to the Bishop’s community increased with the clear message to elevate preventive measures and also to allay student fears about this emerging threat. On March 6, Ron held separate meetings with the middle school and upper school students about what they should be prepared for, but his ultimate message was to reassure. He emphasized, “We’re still going to take care of you, we’re still going to teach you, and you’re going to be OK.” Ron and the leadership team hoped that campus could remain open until March 27, the last day before spring break. “But on March 6, I wondered if we would get there,” he says. Exactly a week later, on March 13, the notice went out that campus would be closed at the end of the day.

➦➦➦ “We’re still going to take care of you, we’re still going to teach you, and you’re going to be OK.” —Ron Kim

Bishop’s immediately shifted into Phase 2, enacting plans for distance learning. Faculty had three school days to activate their online lesson plans so the School could test-run a seven-day class cycle before spring break. Behind the scenes, Tony Trumbo, Bishop’s senior director of educational technology and information systems, and the information systems team worked to ensure that the critical technology serving as the backbone for online learning would be not only robust but reliable. Most important in the transition was the need to preserve the high quality of the relationship between students and teachers. “The Bishop’s program has been boiled down to its bare essentials,” says Michael Beamer, assistant head of school for internal affairs. “That is the give-and-take among students and their peer group and the give-and-take between dedicated, exceptional teaching faculty and students. We developed a schedule that allows for some deep teaching and learning but also allows for that relational experience to be maintained. The same is true for our enrichments. We feel that’s where the spiritual and personal growth and service to our students exists.” “The middle school made the decision to move to pass/fail to deemphasize the grade and focus on the behaviors, habits and dispositions of being full, participating students,” says Head of Middle School Harlan Klein. “We wanted to take away that added stressor.”

ike a dust storm in the distance, news of COVID-19 was faint at first. Something that was far away and undefined in its force. It was not an immediate threat, but it loomed. Still, Bishop’s was proactive, with regular updates and health precautions dispatched by school nurse Susie Fournier starting Jan. 27. But as the coronavirus invaded communities abroad, then nearly 50 countries in rapid succession, epidemic swiftly turned to pandemic. International trips to Spain, Italy and Bali were scheduled for spring break. On Feb. 25, the School’s COVID-19 task force officially convened and two days later sent out the difficult news that international travel had to be canceled. “We started to get together every morning to talk about the coronavirus,” Susie says. “Things were moving so quickly. It was pretty scary to see how many people (overseas) were getting infected.” The next week, Head of School Ron Kim met with department chairs, and he had one question. “I asked them, ‘If I told you tomorrow that we won’t be back on campus, could you be ready and would your department be ready?’ The answer was no, and that was perfectly OK then.” But Ron told them that a plan for distance learning was quickly becoming a necessity. “They came up with distance learning plans and revised schedules to turn this School not 180 degrees, but

Turning Bishop’s 90 Degrees 4

In the online classrooms—the Zoom rooms— making sure that students continued to feel connected and part of something larger was key. “Information transfer isn’t at the center of what we’re doing. If it were that, they could go to Google. We are building a sense of community; a willingness to push yourself intellectually, to take academic risks. All of that requires the group,” says Michelle Shea, dean of students and English teacher. “In this difficult time, we need to maintain connections,” she adds. “That’s the center of who we are as a community. Once we have that unlocked, then we can work on the other things.” “Other things” included adjusting the curriculum and schedule to meet revised expectations during the monumental shift from in-person to online learning as an entire faculty and student body adapted in the midst of a pandemic. “It is a fundamentally different thing to teach a class online, versus in person,” says Academic Dean Janice Murabayashi. “It’s remarkable what our teachers have been able to do on the fly. I personally have such confidence in both our faculty and our students. I’ve been at a number of schools and this is a very special place. It doesn’t surprise me that it has rallied the way it has.” After seeing the effects of screen fatigue during the initial test run, school resumed after spring break with 60-minute classes, built-in breaks and the four core academic classes completed by 12:30 p.m., leaving the afternoon for asynchronous learning, advising and enrichments.

➦➦➦ Meanwhile, as the School was adapting to this 90-degree academic shift, the coronavirus had seeped into the region. Cities, counties and states throughout the country were entering lockdown. On March 19, California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued a statewide stay-at-home order. The dust storm, once on the horizon, had settled over campus. The Bishop’s community keenly felt the pressure of these drastic measures, compounded by an awareness of the overwhelming global losses to the pandemic. With much of daily life shuttered, the rhythm of the school day resumed, though losses were felt there as well. Numerous School traditions that celebrate the students and mark important milestones were likely to be canceled—from the spring choral concert and arts awards night to spring sports and prom. Students, staff and faculty expressed the anxiety of these uncertain times in reflections using words such as isolation, stress, grief, disconcerting and unsettling. “When they told us school was being shut down, it did not feel real,” says Eliana Petreikis ’20, ASBC chief of staff. “The seniors didn’t know how to say goodbye to each other.” “There are losses that we are experiencing every day,” says Megan Broderick ’98, director of counseling. “It’s necessary to acknowledge that there’s a grieving process. Everybody is

in the same boat trying to figure out how to deal with this, finding a way to be comfortable with having so little control. When I find myself thinking of the magnitude of what’s being missed, I try to be mindful of what we have going on right now in this moment. We are going to get through this.”

➦➦➦ But amid the turmoil, an unexpected beauty began to emerge, one that reveals the spirit of hope deep within the Bishop’s community. With life upended—and tightly-scheduled lives suddenly freed—Bishop’s students and faculty discovered ways to both help the community and ease anxiety. During the first full week of remote learning, ASBC quickly moved Spirit Week online, with the popular airband competition continuing via a TikTok compilation. In addition, recognizing the effects of isolation on students, ASBC leaders began organizing open meetups outside of school via Zoom led by individuals or clubs featuring interests like origami or conspiracy theories. “We’re trying to build a sense of community because we know how isolating it can get being home alone for so long and not getting to have social interactions with your friends,” says ASBC President Noah Lin ’20. “We want these to feel more like genuine and authentic connections rather than school-facilitated activities.” “We are trying to create spaces for students to connect and talk,” adds Eliana. “We want students to know they are not alone.”

by creating much-needed PPE. (See story on page 7.) Initiated by Jennifer Seymour, mathematics and creative sciences teacher, the project grew quickly and has resulted in donations of more than 3,600 3D-printed face shields, hundreds of fabric face masks and surgical caps, and a conversion solution for full-face snorkel masks to be used as PPE or personal ventilators. “I couldn’t believe how fast the community came together and how much everyone was willing to donate their time and resources,” Jennifer says. “It’s been incredible.”

➦➦➦ On the academic side, what originally could be seen as a constraint—onlineonly instruction—soon opened unique learning opportunities. Dance teacher Donna Cory Zoomed in Bishop’s alumni from around the country to guest-teach classes; technical design teacher AJ Paulin worked with his students to record radio plays; P.E. and health teacher Cayla Liptak compiled a

workout video for each of her classes featuring students leading the exercises; and Bishop’s librarians hosted online book chats for middle school students, including one featuring author Garret Weyr to discuss “The Language of Spells.” “Students got to engage with the author and ask a professional writer very direct questions about the writing process,” says Harlan. With the spring choral concert canceled, Christine Micu, chair of Bishop’s Performing Arts Department, and her students adapted by creating a virtual choir performance of John Legend’s “If You’re Out There.” In a moving presentation, audio and video of the 23 singers is spliced with individual response videos from the students reflecting their feelings about the pandemic and shutdown. “My goal is to keep the kids engaged in making music and also at the end of this to emerge as better musicians,” says Christine. “In this online recording format they are getting to hear what I hear. They are listening not just to themselves and the person next to them, but they’re actually getting to listen to the whole group and their whole section.”

Sheltering in place at her grandparents’ house in Los Angeles, Ursula Hardianto ’21 was leafing through their photo albums when she became inspired to document life during the pandemic through written and visual reflections as a means of expression and healing. She developed a website, The World @ Your Fingertips: A Community’s Reflection, and invited the Bishop’s community to participate. “I realized how valuable images and reflections are to be able to understand the past,” says Ursula, founder of the Healing Arts Club. “Like with my history classes, we are better able to understand individuals and events.” Part of a groundswell of Bishop’s service projects conducted from home, Lucas Buu-hoan ’21 took some time during spring break with his brother, Marcus Buu-hoan ’24, to film a puppet animation and narration of the book, “The Pigeon Finds a Hot Dog!” “A lot of my teachers who have kids have told me their children really enjoyed it,” says Lucas, who is also helping to edit videos for the marketing and performing arts departments. “I’ve realized while we’re at home that there’s a lot more need for performing arts.” With frontline medical workers across the nation facing a critical shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE), an enterprising group of Bishop’s faculty, staff and students helped answer the call

“I want to give them an opportunity to hone their craft and put some beautiful art into the world for people, because that’s what we really need right now.” One of the performers, Joseph Aguilar ’22, also created a four-part harmony video of his own, a quarantine parody to Billy Joel’s “For the Longest Time,” which now has a fan base. “It’s made me realize just how much art impacts people’s lives on a daily basis,” Joseph says. “And now, more than ever, we need art and creativity to help inspire people.” Similarly, athletics without its stage— the playing field—is still an essential outlet. With the loss of the spring sports season, the athletics department sees even more clearly the importance of being a part of a team. Coaches are making it possible for athletes to stay connected through online meetings with their teams and to remain physically active by providing video workouts or challenges they can follow. In these, and myriad other ways, motivation, personal growth, leadership, collaboration and connection can continue to grow while the field is closed. “When you pull away the sport, the practices and the game, we are clearly seeing that it is important for kids to be involved in something that is selfless and

part of a group, even at a time when we’re not scoring runs or in the pool swimming,” says Director of Athletics Joel Allen. “This reinforces to me the importance of the team and what it means for athletes to be accountable to others and what it means for coaches to be involved in their lives.”

➦➦➦ Certainly, a defining quality of this moment in time is the uncertainty. The storm approaches, then settles, miring communities in a dusty swirl, obscuring the horizons of past or future. There is only now. But eventually, fingers of light begin to peek through the haze and tomorrow emerges. At Bishop’s, tomorrow is stronger, kinder and even more confident, thanks to the strength of the community and Above: The Bishop’s Knight (aka Ron Kim) helped safely deliver yard signs to recognize seniors during the pandemic.

each person’s ability to adapt, reach out to others and persevere. “None of this works without the students’ positive spirit. They are so resilient,” says Ron. “The parents have been supportive and patient, and they’ve told us about their gratitude, which is reassuring. And the teachers have been amazing. It’s rare to work with people who are so dedicated and determined. I told them that the kids are counting on us and that’s all I had to say. They weren’t sure what this was going to look like. They just knew that they were going to do what they needed to do because there’s a sense of shared mission and deep care for the kids.” “This is a caring, resilient group of people who want to support one another and put the students first,” adds Head of Upper School Brian Ogden. “I am really, really proud to be a part of this community. Frankly, I’m humbled.” “I think about the upper school singers’ video and just how poignant it feels and how beautiful it is,” says Michael. “There is a spirit that even though this (moment) is different than we anticipated, we are not going to let it define a stretch of time that we can take charge of a bit as well. It demonstrates the power of this community, that we have the capacity to get through this and be just fine.”

In times of great need, entire movements can be launched with just a few words, such as a conversation between neighbors.

By Trisha J. Ratledge with foam cushioning, elastic straps and plastic face shields which Jennifer cut using the center’s laser cutter. After researching face mask designs and filter materials, Jean, Paige and Cora began sewing fabric masks using supplies from home and from the School’s costume department. Jean soon added fabric surgical caps to her inventory as well. “I couldn’t believe how fast the community came together and how much everyone has been willing to donate,” says Jennifer, who also developed the prototype connector for the snorkel mask. “It’s been incredible … all of the students with their individual 3D printers at home and Jean, Cora and Paige taking so much time and energy and using up all of their spare fabric without even a second thought.” When the initial batches of PPE were in distribution, Stanley and Ryland added Maker Club member William Lai ’23 to their team. To date, they have contributed more than 2,000 much-needed face shields—all printed from their homes—to medical facilities locally and in outbreak zones across the country.

s COVID-19 was taking hold in Southern California, visual arts teacher Emily Grenader learned about the critical need for personal protective equipment (PPE) from her neighbor, a nurse. She shared the conversation with the design team at the Center for Creative Sciences. In under 10 weeks, Bishop’s faculty, students and staff came together to create and donate more than 3,600 3D-printed visors and laser-cut face shields, hundreds of hand-sewn fabric face masks and surgical caps, and a 3D-printed prototype connector to convert full-face snorkel masks into PPE or personal ventilators. Launched by mathematics and creative sciences teacher Jennifer Seymour, the movement to supply PPE in the fight against the coronavirus started with a small but mighty force including Bishop’s Maker Club members Michael Zeng ’22, Stanley Wei ’22 and Ryland Birchmeier ’22, costume design teacher Jean Moroney, Middle School Administrative Assistant Cora Lautanen and Paige Walker ’22. The Maker Club joined with Jennifer immediately to start producing 3D-printed plastic visors that are then assembled

Michael expanded production efforts with members of his robotics team, including James Hou ’23 and Nicholas Liu ’22, and added a GoFundMe page (now closed), which raised $4,906 to help cover materials and shipping costs. In six weeks, this group produced more than 3,000 face shields that were distributed to more than 100 hospitals around the country. In addition, Michael worked closely with Nicholas, Ashwin Baluja ’21, Andrew Kessler ’21 and a friend in the Bay Area to develop and promote printforthecure.com, a web platform that connects PPE donors/producers to essential workers in need. They were assisted behind the scenes by Bishop’s Wu Tsai Chair in Computer Science Marcus Jaiclin. At press time, Print for the Cure had connected nearly 20,000 pieces of donated PPE to grateful recipients. Soon after PPE distributions started going out, pictures and thank you notes streamed in from medical staff on the frontlines buoyed by the kindness and generosity of the Bishop’s community. That feedback has been just as rewarding for the makers. “There are a lot of ways you can help in a situation like this,” Michael says. “Our (robotics competition) season was canceled because of the coronavirus, so it’s been great for us to still work as a team and at the same time provide help.”

Alumni in Health Care – On the Front Lines of the COVID-19 Pandemic Many Bishop’s alumni go into medical careers; this year those careers took on a new urgency in the face of a global pandemic. Despite their work keeping them very busy, we were able to catch up with them this spring.

NICOLE ANDONIAN ’09 Anesthesiology Resident at UCLA

Dr. Matthew Kuehnert is the chief medical officer at MTF Biologics following a 20-year career at Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), where he most recently served as director of the Office of Blood, Organ, and Other Tissue Safety. A graduate of Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons, Matthew completed his internship and residency in internal medicine at Stanford University and the University of California at San Francisco and an infectious disease fellowship at Emory University.

Dr. Nicole Andonian is an anesthesiology resident at UCLA, a role which she will conclude in June 2021. She will then begin a one-year fellowship in regional anesthesiology at UC San Diego in 2021. Nicole attended UCLA for her undergraduate studies and earned her M.D. from The Ohio State University.

HAYLEY WARDROP ’09 Nurse, Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit (ICU), currently the COVID-ICU, at Palomar Medical Center Hayley Wardrop, R.N. is a nurse in Palomar Medical Center’s Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit, currently the COVID-ICU, where she has worked since 2016. She earned her undergraduate degree from UC Santa Barbara and her MSN from the University of San Diego. This fall, she will embark on Rush University’s Nurse Anesthesia Doctor of Nursing Practice program.

MATTHEW KUEHNERT ’85 Chief Medical Officer at MTF Biologics

What advice would you give to our readers? Matthew: Getting through a pandemic is a marathon, not a sprint. Stay calm and six feet apart when you can.

Nicole: As we open back up, it is okay to take risks like seeing more friends and family and going back into the community. But try and stay outdoors as much as possible and limit contact with the elderly and those who are at higher risk. Most of all, tell your friends and family how much you love them!

“I am hopeful that we are strong, and we will get through this all together.” —Nicole

Alumni in Health Care 10

Hayley: When I began working in critical care my mentor told me two fundamental rules: Rule number one is patients die, and rule number two is you can’t change rule number one. I was initially taken aback by these rules. I felt, and continue to feel, that the intensive care unit is an unrelenting battle between health care professionals and death: the continuous fight to return a heartbeat or secure an airway. This battle is fought every day, and we are unfortunately not always victorious. Over the years I have added a third rule: No one dies alone. In certain circumstances, in conjunction with a patient’s wishes and prognosis, the battle transforms into a dance. Success is now defined by a comfortable present and a death with dignity. I have had the immense honor of assisting many patients from this life into the unknown. During these moments, no person has ever used their limited breaths to discuss financial gain, positions of power or anger. Instead, these cherished words are focused on loved ones, family, experiences and remembrance of life’s seemingly tedious moments. These are difficult times, and people are struggling. We are fighting this battle with armor composed of trash bags and weathered masks against an elusive and invisible opponent. I have scrambled to place my protective gear as I helplessly watch my patients struggle to breathe only to be told that this virus is “fake news.” I have worn my protective gear until it is saturated with sweat and blood only to turn the news on to protests about facial covering requirements. Some days, I do not know if we are winning or losing. During these moments, when the fatigue and anger begin to consume me, I choose to focus on the dances rather than the battles. Instead of focusing on the isolation, I encourage you to consider this an opportunity to reflect and re-engage. Although we are disconnected from our normal routines, there is an opportunity to reconnect with yourself and loved ones. Have the uninterrupted conversations that you have always wanted to have. Call your mother, sister, cousin or childhood best friend. My advice is a spin on the fundamental rules of critical care: Rule number one is the virus is real, and rule number two is you can’t change rule number one. Rule number three is that we are all in this together. Many years from now when your skin is etched deep with experience, I hope you are able to reflect on this time and the pain is dulled by the beauty. I am positive that whoever is by your side, family or nurse, would love to hear your thoughts as you waltz into your next great adventure.

What gives you hope in the midst of all this uncertainty? Matthew: The pandemic’s impact on public health is the most significant we have seen in our lifetimes, but humanity has been through much worse. Life will get back to normal, but we need to take things slowly. The way down on the case curve will not be as fast as the way up.

Nicole: I am hopeful that we are strong, and we will get through this all together. We have gotten through pandemics many times before, and we will get through this one as well, both in terms of health as well as our economy.

What was your path from Bishop’s to your current role? Matthew:

Hayley: After graduating from Bishop’s in 2009, I attended the University of California, Santa Barbara. While in school, I volunteered in the emergency department and was a crisis counselor at the Santa Barbara Rape Crisis Center. These experiences inspired me to pursue nursing.

Matthew: There are fantastic teachers at Bishop’s, and what stuck with me are everyday approaches to learning. Dr. Otto Mower was one of my most significant influences. I kept in touch with him for many years, and he provided such good grounding and philosophy for life.

Nicole: I wouldn’t say any one person or experience specifically inspired me to do what I do. But I had a dream, and I didn’t let anything get in the way of that dream. It was long and hard, but when I look back at how far I have come on my medical journey, I am so grateful (and it feels like it flew by!).

Most important thing for readers to know? Matthew: The path to find what you love to do isn’t a straight or steady line.

Hayley: My mother. I grew up playing dress-up in her scrubs, and she worked tirelessly to provide me with the opportunity to attend The Bishop’s School. She taught me to be resilient and the power of positivity. Although I cannot see her right now—she is immunocompromised, and I am frequently exposed—we talk almost every day. I treat every patient the way I would want my mother to be treated. She was, and continues to be, my biggest inspiration.

Do you have a favorite Bishop’s memory to share? Matthew: It’s been great to keep up with friendships that started in high school. With a small class size, many of us have stayed in touch, and I look forward to our 35th reunion coming up in the fall!

Nicole: When I think back to my Bishop’s days, I will never forget the carefree days of sitting on the terrace during milk breaks or lunches (with the best food schools have to offer) and catching up with friends. Those precious moments and friendships stay with you forever.

During medical school, I thought I would become a private practice clinician in cardiology. In my internal medicine residency, I got interested in infectious diseases. An advisor pointed me to CDC, which has an epidemiology training program called the Epidemic Intelligence Service. I matched there in the Hospital Infections Program and joined as a commissioned corps officer in the U.S. Public Health Service. First, I investigated health care outbreaks and ways to control antibiotic resistance, and then got involved in blood safety, heading up an office to prevent infection through transfusion and transplantation—we investigated viruses like HIV, Hepatitis C, West Nile and even rabies transmitted through organs. Throughout my career at CDC as a USPHS officer, I was also called to help with many public health emergencies focusing on health care preparedness and response, including anthrax, SARS, monkeypox, avian influenza, Ebola and Zika (sometimes I say it was A to Z). After 20 years, I left CDC in 2017. I’m now chief medical officer at MTF Biologics, a nonprofit organization that distributes human tissue to save and heal lives globally. Most recently with the COVID-19 response, I’ve been consulting with the New York City Health Department on challenges like mask reuse and disinfection to keep health care workers safe.

SCHOLAR-IN-RESIDENCE | Katharine Hayhoe

Christian Climate Warrior

By Joe Tash

Renowned scientist brings message of “realistic hope” on climate change to Bishop’s.

atharine Hayhoe’s core message about climate change is short, simple and to the point: It’s real, humans are causing it, the effects are serious, and we must act now. Dr. Hayhoe is in a unique position to deliver this message. As an atmospheric scientist, she has extensively studied the impacts of a warming planet on the places where we live—and what can be done to turn things around. As an evangelical Christian, Dr. Hayhoe not only sees no conflict between her work and her faith, but says her religious beliefs compel her to fight the negative effects of climate change on people around the globe, especially the poorest and most vulnerable populations. To that end, Dr. Hayhoe is also a skilled communicator. She espouses her message whenever she can, whether it’s a one-on-one conversation with a climate change skeptic, a talk before a group or on her own PBS Digital Series, “Global Weirding.” In January, Dr. Hayhoe spent two days at The Bishop’s School as the 2020 endowed scholar-in-residence. The program, funded by a gift from an anonymous Bishop’s family, brings accomplished individuals each year for extended campus visits. During her two-day visit, Dr. Hayhoe spoke at an event for the community as well as at an all-school assembly, and she met with students in small groups. Dr. Hayhoe, a professor at Texas Tech University, initially turned down Bishop’s invitation due to an impending book deadline. She changed her mind in part because she admires the Episcopal approach to education, emphasizing not only instruction in academic disciplines, but teaching students to use what they

changed her life. She intended to study astrophysics, but the class opened her eyes to the ways that climate change affects every aspect of life, including health, food, economics, national security, poverty and hunger.

“I learned that climate change is not only an environmental issue, it’s an everything issue.”

She also talked about how her faith motivates her to act on climate change. The Bible tells us to love and care for each other and be responsible for all living things on Earth. She sees being good stewards of the environment as a way of honoring the planet, which is God’s creation. “If you take the Bible or your Christianity seriously, then you’d be at the front of the line demanding climate action,” she says. In talking about climate change, Dr. Hayhoe starts by finding common ground, whether it’s faith for a Christian, the future well-being of children for a parent or the availability of water for a farmer. Bishop’s students were impressed by her facts about climate change, and her insistence that everyone can make a difference, says Pam Reynolds, whose Advanced Honors Chemistry students met with Dr. Hayhoe in a breakout session, along with students from Social Justice in American Society, a course taught by Bishop’s Chaplain Rev. Nicole Simopoulos-Pigato. “We have to recognize it’s not about politics or religion; it’s about existence, and we have the key,” Pam says. “We can all be part of the solution.” The idea that climate action is a moral and social justice issue, because the poor and disadvantaged are disproportionately affected by climate change, is one that hits home with Nicole. She seeks to frame climate change in terms of its moral implications in the classroom and chapel.

learn in ways that align with their talents and interests. Dr. Hayhoe believes it is important to speak to young people about climate change because they can positively influence their parents’ thinking, and it is they who must live with the long-term impacts of the changing climate. “It’s their world that we’re messing with. And we owe them an explanation of what’s happening and what can be done to fix it.” Dr. Hayhoe was particularly impressed with a group of middle school students she spoke with at a lunch session. The students had so many questions that she couldn’t get to all of them. “They were fantastic.” Dr. Hayhoe’s talk was part history and science lesson, part pep talk on the importance of being engaged on climate change. Perhaps the most compelling portion of her talk was her description of how climate change is affecting the world we live in, from larger, deadlier wildfires in California to more powerful hurricanes in coastal regions, to massive floods and more frequent droughts. “It’s taking the risks we face naturally and making them worse,” she says. “We care about a changing climate because it affects real people today, especially the poor and vulnerable.” The evening before the allschool assembly, she spoke at an on-campus community event. She described how a college class on climate science

Dr. Hayhoe told students one of the most important things they can do is talk about climate change with people they know.

“It’s exactly what Dr. Hayhoe does, as a Biblical imperative, a matter of faith and humanity. As we see the humanity in others we become more human ourselves. It’s working for climate justice because of the human impact and the mission to protect the Earth by the faith community,”says Nicole. Following Dr. Hayhoe’s visit, it’s important for students and teachers to carry the conversation forward, and look for ways to reduce the School’s carbon footprint, whether it’s switching to plantbased burgers in the cafeteria, reducing food waste or eliminating the use of disposable plastic water bottles. Rev. Brian Fidler, who recently retired as Bishop’s chaplain, invited Dr. Hayhoe to come to the School several years ago after reading about her work. He attended the all-school assembly and was impressed by what she had to say. “She did a good job of drawing the audience through the science to the moral implications,” Brian says. And at issuing a “profound call to action: Go do something. It doesn’t have to be huge, just do something.” Hunter Kates ’22, a student in Nicole’s Social Justice class, is more concerned about climate change after hearing from Dr. Hayhoe. Hunter is willing to do what he can to combat the effects of climate change, such as eating less beef or talking about the problem with friends and family. “She showed us how dire the circumstances are. I see it with a new

sense of urgency. We need to fix it now before the serious effects become irreversible,” he says. Matthew Ai ’20 will soon be able to vote and wants to be an “informed and active citizen.” One piece of that is learning about important issues. Dr. Hayhoe’s contention that the Bible directs Christians to care about climate change because of its impacts on humans and other living things on the planet was “very powerful.” “It encourages us to act and to better the world and one way is to fight climate change because of the harm it can cause,” Matthew says. “The idea that resonated with me was

the power of having a conversation,” Matthew says. “I liked her message that all we have to do is talk about it more with family and friends and that will make a huge difference.” When Dr. Hayhoe is asked about the things we can do to fight climate change, she says she used to advise people to use an online carbon footprint calculator and reduce their biggest personal contributor to global warming, whether it’s their diet, travel habits or some other factor. But lately she’s become convinced that even if we reduce our personal carbon footprints to zero, it won’t be enough, because systemic change is needed to move away from fossil fuels and toward sustainable sources of energy. Now she says people must raise their voices, whether individually or by joining a group of like-minded people. And vote. (Regarding her own political affiliation, she says with a smile that she is neither a Democrat nor a Republican, but a Canadian.) Despite the dire consequences of climate change that are already being felt around the globe, Dr. Hayhoe remains optimistic that humanity can still avoid catastrophic impacts. “Realistic hope” is what’s needed. “Hope that recognizes that climate change is bad, it is us, but it is not too late. Every conversation we have makes a difference. That’s where I find hope, in talking with people and hearing about what others are doing, too.”

KNIGHTS COACHES & ATHLETES THRIVING IN A NEW SPORTS LANDSCAPE

ishop’s Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Joel Allen can rattle off any number of ways that his coaching style in 2020 differs from the way he was coached as a quarterback at Christian High School fewer than two decades ago. From his approach to motivation, to the way that technology allows players and coaches alike to learn, the changes are seismic across the board. But perhaps most important, Joel spends fewer of his Saturday mornings hanging out at a local Texaco station. “I used to meet coaches at gas stations with VHS tapes or DVDs,” Joel says. Swapping game film of common opponents was long the only way for high school teams to get a look at upcoming foes. “We’d say ‘Here’s my game, good luck this week.’ You’d be traveling all over San Diego meeting at random gas stations exchanging film on Saturday mornings.” For sports programs with the financial means, subscription video services have not only rendered exchanges like these largely obsolete, but they’ve changed the way that coaches are able to teach their players.

Coaches can use these clips to give a player “homework” in between practices, or in a time of canceled seasons and physical distancing, a strategy to improve at home without in-person training. “Online, there’s stick tricks, there’s individual work,” field hockey and lacrosse coach Meghan Carr says. “You can find so much online that you can do on your own time—to increase your skill level.” Courtney Anderson ’20, who has been doing online work in preparation to play lacrosse at San Diego State next year, agrees. “When the pandemic hit mid-lacrosse season, we were able to switch to online practices with ease. We had meetings and yoga sessions on Zoom and created iMovies of stick tricks.”

In a similar “back in the day, uphill both ways” scenario, volleyball coach Tod Mattox recalls the effort that he used to put into film study. “In the old days, I would watch video, and I would cut rotation tapes out of video and put those together to watch other teams and our team,” he says. His willingness to put in the time meant that his teams enjoyed dramatic advantages over their opponents when it came to preparation. His former players recall that their scouting was “like we’d played the game already.” With the aid of a subscription video service, Tod can now get the same information to his players, along with getting a little more sleep for himself. “Now, everything is coded—I send my tape in after the game, and they send it back in two or three hours.” With individual accounts available for players as well, they can take their film study “to go,” beyond the confines of team sessions. And technology isn’t just for those with special access. Resources like YouTube have democratized access to drills, lessons and all-you-care-to-watch replays of the best players in the world plying their craft. “When I was growing up, you could watch tennis, and you’d hopefully catch a specific person—you never got to see it in slow motion, you never got to see any of that,” tennis coach Matt Copland says. “The YouTube phenomenon means you can get almost every stroke broken down for any player who’s on the professional tour.”

This torrent of information available to coaches and players— often in the form of video—allows a deeper level of instruction that wasn’t possible for a previous generation. “You’re allowed to approach the game with the kids the way the coach does mentally,” Joel says. “That kid is understanding the ‘why’ versus just ‘because my coach told me so.’” At its best, this can set up a collegial relationship between coaches and players, where an error can calmly be identified, explained and corrected. For players looking to improve, this avalanche of resources is a hugely empowering development. Every play. Of every game. At their fingertips. Countless hours of free coaching is available online from every level of competition. Combine that with the large number of students playing on club teams outside school—and receiving instruction from a variety of coaches—and there’s a corollary to the boom in coaching technology: the death of the all-knowing “guru” coach. The guru model was all Matt knew as a young player working toward a career as a tour pro. “The coach would tell you, ‘This is what you need to do,’ and you would learn what he knew,” he said. “You didn’t think the person was wrong, so you believed every word the coach had to say.” The world of knowledge available to a young athlete was relatively small, and it mostly consisted of what his or her coach

Zooming into Practice By Keri Peckham

echnology took on an even more important role for Knights Athletics this spring, as coaches and players made a quick transition to online practices, through Zoom and video workouts. Teams even welcomed special guest speakers, including two Major League Baseball players who took the time to meet with Knights Baseball. The track team, led by coaches Aisha Cavin Baldez and Jennifer Seymour, met via Zoom and did at-home workouts. Aisha felt, “It was important for the coaches to check in and offer encouragement and advice. We were impressed with how well the athletes pushed through the adversity of their season being cut short and how they virtually stood by each other. Even though we did not have the season we anticipated, our athletes were able to practice discipline, self motivation, pushing through hardship, staying positive and being an encouraging teammate.” Uncertainty about the fall sports season still remains, but the Knights Football team has begun daily Zoom sessions, which Joel has appreciated for their ability to “push coaches to think outside of the box. Coaches are able to filter out the important content, to focus on what matters most to our teams. It’s different for all of us, but the spring coaches did an amazing job.” That being said, Joel and the entire Bishop’s coaching staff are very much looking forward to returning to in-person training next year. “We miss the kids.”

could get across during practice, for the three months during a high school season. Tod recalls that one of his early strengths as a coach was maximizing court time for his players to improve during that narrow seasonal window. “But now our kids are playing 12 months of volleyball,” Tod says, “and they’re exposed to many good coaches. I have to be way better to make an impact on them than I did in the ’80s.” All those resources are helping players improve faster and younger—great news for their high school coaches. It also means that players’ expectations of those coaches are higher as well. “You weren’t held as accountable as a coach as we are today,” Joel says. “Now, if you keep calling the same play and telling players it’s going to work, and an athlete’s parent and personal coach see on film that you’re all wrong, well, then you’re wrong. You better know your stuff, because it’s going to be evident pretty quickly.” In an environment where instruction is plentiful but a student’s time is not, player “buy-in” is a key phrase for coaches, and it’s no longer guaranteed by showing up to practice with a whistle and a clipboard. Whether it’s allowing veteran players to explain and lead drills on the lacrosse field, or simply monitoring the workload on tired teenage arms and legs, coaches are finding ways to meet players where they are. “Coaches want feedback,” Matt says. “We want players to share life stuff and be more open and transparent. The player is really the leader. The coach needs to game plan around what that person is feeling at that time or what their suggestions are.” Bishop’s athletes continue to excel on the field while shouldering a demanding academic load. Their high school coaches are called to help them balance those stresses in a way that a private coach might not. More than ever, the high school sports season means different things to different players. For some, it’s the only time all year that they’ll play a particular sport. For others, the high school season represents a bit of a respite from more competitive club teams during the rest of the year. Striving for team success while trying to achieve the right experience for a variety of different student-athletes within the larger framework of the holistic Bishop’s education—that is the challenge for coaches in 2020. But Tod believes many of these changes are on the periphery. New bells and whistles may make scouting less complicated or a specific skill easier to teach. Increased information may demand more transparency or a different style from coaches than what they used 15 years earlier. Yet at its heart, the goal remains the same. “‘Kids are different these days. Things aren’t like they used to be.’ Every generation says that. But I think human nature says that kids want to improve,” he says. “Kids want to be part of a group that’s successful. That hasn’t changed. The great coaches can tap into human nature and get the best out of the players they coach.”

Virtual Performances Take the Stage to the Screen As students left campus and began classes and extracurricular activities over Zoom, one may have wondered, what happens to the performing arts? The show must go on! By Jen Jordan and Cathy Morrison CHORAL MUSIC

Virtual Performances Take the Stage to the Screen 18

DANCE Every year, Bishop’s dance teacher Donna Cory invites a dance alum to choreograph a piece for the spring Performing Dance Group show and this year, Jesse Dancy ’05 lent his talents in step dance. With the group unable to perform its spring show, Donna and her students brainstormed which piece would be best suited for a Zoom undertaking. Jesse’s piece, “…to the beat…” was chosen. Dancers recorded themselves performing their part and each video was combined for the final product.

“If You’re Out There” featured upper school choir students. Rather than put all 24 faces together in one Zoom-style screen, Performing Arts Department Chair Christine Micu asked students to send videos of what their lives look like during COVID. Those responses appear as the choir performs. In “I Will Sing You the Stars,” Bishop’s Middle School Choir collaborated with the middle school visual arts program to have images of students’ artwork onscreen accompanying the audio. The recording helped guide and inspire students in creating their featured pieces. “It Gets Better” shows Bishop’s Select Ensemble singing their own version of the song. This interpretation “speaks to a broader audience struggling in this time of social isolation and a bunch of unknowns.” Boyband showcased The Beatles’ “Come Together” even though they couldn’t perform together. Before COVID, they planned to feature more Beatles music. Instead, they focused their energy on the one song. Inspired by an animated video, students matched their performance looks to the example and comic filters were used to turn the musicians into cartoons.

THEATER TECH Typically, students in Theater Design and Technical Theater classes create a live mix to produce live theatrical or music events. Instead, they got creative at home. Students developed radio plays using Garageband, Audacity or Soundtrap. They could either record all of the dialogue themselves or cast family or friends, then recorded their own sound effects, and edited and manipulated sound waves.

If you’re interested in seeing our students’ performances, they can be found on Bishop’s YouTube channel.

When Xing King began teaching Chinese at Bishop’s in 2002, there were only two classes offered. Once onboard, she designed the curricula for Chinese III, Chinese III Honors, Chinese IV, Chinese IV Honors and AP Chinese Language and Culture. As a result, her favorite Bishop’s memories involve former students telling her “of their successful stories after graduation because of the excellent education they had received from the Chinese program at Bishop’s.” One student didn’t have to wait until graduation to share his good news and gratitude with her—recently Miles McInerney ’20 learned he was selected as one of 10 fellows for the U.S. State Department’s 2020 Benjamin Franklin Transatlantic Fellowship program. Miles was quick to credit Ms. King for her teaching and letter of recommendation. Although she says she will miss “friends, students, the beautiful campus and ocean views from my classroom windows,” she is also looking forward to spending “quality time with my family, especially my grandson.” She also notes, “At the conclusion of my teaching career at Bishop’s, I would like to share one thought with other teachers. Teaching is the noblest among all the professions since all professionals underwent education with a teacher.”

As the School moves forward in the era of COVID-19, a new administrative position was created—the assistant head of school for internal affairs. The most immediate priority for this position is to develop, implement and communicate a health and safety plan for our community. Preparing for next year in the midst of a pandemic requires coordination and direction from someone with the authority to make executive decisions. The assistant head will also have oversight in areas of critical importance to the School, such as wellness, strategic planning and diversity. Michael Beamer, dean of students at Bishop’s for the past eight years, will serve in this new role. Michael’s elevation to the assistant head of school role left a gap in the dean of students’ office that was filled internally, as English teacher Michelle Shea was named dean of students, and Assistant Athletic Director Shane Walton ’98 was named associate dean of students. Another new position was created in the middle school—English teacher Jasmyn Tanner ’98 was named director of middle school student life.

AUCTION 2020 1

Senior Salute 20

By Jen Jordan

he evening of May 8 was one the Bishop’s community won’t soon forget. In response to the coronavirus pandemic, Bishop’s Auction pivoted to a virtual format, unable to gather on campus for the first time in the event’s 34-year history. “The truth is we did not know what to expect or how a virtual event would unfold,” says Bishop’s Senior Director of Advancement Gale Hill. “But what we saw was stunning broad-based participation.” The event raised $1 million, which will go directly to the School’s Financial Aid Program for the coming year. Attendees were encouraged to enjoy the evening with friends by arranging their own virtual cocktail hour or dinner party, enjoying food from Giuseppe. Using their smartphones, guests then logged onto Text2Bid, a virtual bidding platform, to bid on items, purchase raffle tickets and directly donate to Bishop’s financial aid program. 1. Auctioneer Clint Bell 2. Dawn and Ralph Birchmeier 3. The Ferguson-Webb family 4. Bishop’s Auction staff Gale Hill and Brittany Caricato

The evening’s live portion was streamed from a Linda Vista warehouse, with auctioneer Clint Bell excitedly encouraging the event’s paddle raise. Co-chaired by Berenice and Jerry Blake (Gerald ’24) and Stacia and Michael Balog (Nicholas ’22, Alexander ’24), the success of this year’s annual event was crucial. “One out of every five of our students is dependent upon financial assistance for their attendance next year,” says Gale. “We anticipate that the number will grow because of the pandemic. We welcomed the generosity of those who gave what they could so students have the opportunity to succeed.” Graduating Bishop’s senior Vanessa Brunetta ’20 testified to the importance of tuition assistance in an incredibly moving video (watch on Bishop’s YouTube channel). “Thank you for giving me a community, an education, a second home and a second chance at finding who I am.”

We are grateful to our amazing event sponsors. Please visit http://www.bishops.com/auction to see the list of those who supported the auction.
