Dear Canterbury Family, As the school year comes to a close, our minds and hearts are filled to the brim with moments of pride. It has been a great year! While I have experienced many great school years, this one was particularly special for me, as it is my first year as a Head of School. I have been honored to take on this opportunity to lead Canterbury into a new era where we will continue to build upon all of our incredible accomplishments. I want to thank everyone for your trust, ongoing support, and drive towards achieving our shared vision of providing the absolute best for our students.

This year we have made some thoughtful decisions to improve our school’s culture and directly impact our students’ success. One of those decisions was to modify our divisional structure. Next year, our Lower School will encompass grades Pre-K3 through fourth grade, Middle School will include fifth through eighth grades, and our Upper School will remain as ninth through twelfth grades. The change will allow us to greatly strengthen our Middle School family and better prepare students for what to expect as they enter Upper School.

This will be notably evident as our new Student and Honor Councils get underway next year in both the Middle and Upper Schools. These councils will serve as a powerful tool to cultivate leadership skills and allow for numerous mentorship opportunities between the divisions.

Rick Kirschner, Head of School

Throughout our divisions we are expanding our school’s commitment to educational technology. Our Bring Your Own Technology (BYOT) program will now include first through fourth grades next year, a move we believe is necessary to equip our students with the skills they need to succeed in our ever-changing digital world. We are also thrilled to offer a semester-long computer science course in our Upper School, as well as expanded technology offerings for our Middle School students. On top of all that, we will have new opportunities to explore both theatre and visual arts, to participate in athletics, and to bolster language skills with our new Chinese classes. There is certainly a lot to be excited about here at Canterbury!

On a final note, I would like to echo one piece of advice I gave to our graduates, and that is to keep your balance. Canterbury School has always, and will always, offer a well-rounded educational experience for our students. We are proud to offer an excellent academic program as well as opportunities for students to thrive in the arts, athletics, and cocurricular activities. By keeping this balance at Canterbury, I have absolutely no doubt that we will continue to achieve outstanding things - and be a school that not only we are proud of, but also one that our community is proud to support.

I wish everyone a fantastic summer and I am looking forward to the new and exciting journey ahead of us next year!

All the Best,

Rick Kirschner Head of School

MISSION: The Canterbury School is dedicated to academic excellence within a caring and supportive community, emphasizing character, leadership, and service.

Commencement Speech Michael Gasior, Class of 2016 Friends, family, faculty - welcome, and thank you for joining us today to celebrate the Class of 2016 and all that we have accomplished. Your support today and through these last four years is the reason why we stand here today, and stand proudly.

I am truly honored and humbled to be here before you to represent my peers, and although no 10-minute speech can possibly do justice for the incredible people that make up this class, I will certainly try to explore and explain what makes our class so astonishingly special.

Everyone has an idea of what they would say in this position, if given the chance. And believe me, in the last couple of weeks, I’ve heard everyone’s idea of what to say - what experiences to reminisce about, what books and movies to quote, what teachers to poke fun at. Everyone knows how they would sum up their high school experience, and I would be lying if I said I haven’t considered it before this year myself. If you told ninthgrade Michael that she would be speaking at commencement in four years, she wouldn’t believe it. But she would dream about it. And dream I have - much to the chagrin of some family, friends, and teachers, who sometimes worried about my great expectations. After all, who would choose a Yankee bookworm with a whack sense of humor who only shows up to football games with her flute in hand? Apparently, the Class of 2016 would.

Hopefully, all of my dreaming means you’ll hear a good speech from me today.

We aren’t just the leaders of tomorrow. We are the leaders of today, we were the leaders of yesterday, and yes, we will continue to lead. All of us have learned in our own ways how to take charge and be good, steadfast leaders, and we possess within us more strength and fortitude than we ourselves can fathom.

If anything, dreaming has taken the Class of 2016 so far. We have dreamed with our heads far into the clouds and our feet firmly on the ground. We dreamed of MUN competitions and band concerts, of Science Olympiads and Thespian showcases, of athletic state championships and perfect test scores, of late nights spent with friends and early mornings spent in AP classes. But dreaming itself wasn’t what got us to where we are now. We may have dreamed up everything we wanted to do, but then we put in the work, the hours, the late nights and early mornings, the four cups of coffee and 20 pages of homework.

We have made clear that we deserve what we have achieved, and that nothing has fallen into our lap by accident or by miracle. All of us have given 100 percent toward something, whether it is academics, athletics, arts, community service, or a mix of everything. And I’m not even talking about our amazing test scores and awesome college placements, because you’ve probably already heard about all of that from the pamphlets and catalogs that Canterbury continuously sends out.

In this process, we’ve proven that there’s no dichotomy between the blessings and burdens of youth. And yes, parents, there are burdens of youth - I know that you probably don’t believe me, but just trust me on this one. When you’re 16, 17, 18 years old and you have to stare the next 70 years of your life in the face, that’s hard.

When you take five college-level classes a year and participate in a whole slew of extracurriculars to boot, in hopes of getting into your top choice college, that’s hard. When you haven’t even taken a step into adulthood and yet you’re asked to find and pursue your life’s passion… well, that’s really hard. But here we are, standing tall, despite our unknown futures, ready to conquer whatever lies ahead, with enthusiasm and determination. And that’s a Canterbury Advantage.

Now, a common sentiment I’ve heard in the last few weeks is that we, the graduating Class of 2016, don’t like each other all that much anymore. And that’s not an outsider’s observation - no, that’s what we’ve been telling ourselves! Yet everything I’ve seen in these last few weeks proves the contrary.

If anything, we are each other’s biggest cheerleaders. No offense, parents - you may always be there for us, but something magical happens when we come and cheer each other on. Just by looking at events like The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee or the State Baseball Semifinal and Championship games can we see that we are here to support each other, because we’re all in this together. And we’ve stood together this whole time, through a week without showering in the mountains of North Carolina, through beach days and mosh pits, and through the ups and downs that life inevitably brings us.

This has been a year of change, more

so than years prior. This is, of course, to be expected - a new headmaster, new faculty, and a new cougar growl for athletic events. Such changes could cause upheaval in other places, but the solidarity of the Canterbury community means that we adapt to change gracefully, likely because we are helmed by capable leaders, including our own students. Of course, some would say that we seniors are the leaders of tomorrow. Well, with all due respect, I would say that those people are wrong - at least partially. We aren’t just the leaders of tomorrow. We are the leaders of today, we were the leaders of yesterday, and yes, we will continue to lead. All of us have learned in our own ways how to take charge and be good, steadfast leaders, and we possess within us more strength and fortitude than we ourselves can fathom. In these past four years, we have led in the classroom, on the field, and in the community, and this leadership only goes to show how passionate we are about everything we do.

We may be entering the next stage of our lives, this so-called “adulthood” - I know I’m clearly a mature, responsible, grounded adult at the ripe old age of 17 - but we are only exiting what really is the kindergarten of our entire lives. So much in the future is unknown to us, yet so much remains in our control - things to discover, things to change, things to accomplish. I know that our lives will take us to incredible places,

Commencement Speech continued and I know I will eagerly await stories of what you have achieved, since we were all together as a class and as a family for the last time, which very well may be here today in this gymnasium.

When I first visited Canterbury, I was informed that I would be entering the best class Canterbury had seen for a long time. Administration and faculty alike acknowledged the empathy, compassion, and respectfulness that set apart this class from other classes. Of course, that’s not to say that other classes aren’t phenomenal in their own rights, but my years here have shown that these people you see on stage are the greatest individuals I could have hoped to spend my high school years with. For those of you who don’t know, my mom and I essentially moved to Fort Myers from Connecticut so that I could attend Canterbury. It’s a longer and more complicated story than that, but that was our driving impetus: Canterbury invited me to visit my eighth-grade year, and during that visit I knew I had found where I needed to be for the next four years. Family in New England has asked if I ever regretted my decision, and I never have, not even for a minute. How on earth could I regret it? At the end of it all, I get to stand up here, surrounded by people I love and trust, celebrating all that we have accomplished and all that we stand to achieve. No pain of moving away from where I called home can overwhelm the happiness I have from the memories of our time here together.

Inscribed on the base of a statue at Miami University in Ohio is the phrase, “To think in such a place, I led such a life.” These past four years have been the best time of my life so far, and it’s because of this community; the very fact that I am standing here today proves that you have welcomed me into your family, and for that, I will always be grateful. So take a moment and look at the faces you see here, the faces of your teachers, your family, and your friends. Take a look at each other and know that, no matter where your journey in life takes you, you will always have these people and this place to come home to. n

Learning to LEAD

by Courtney Halle ’16

I began my Canterbury journey as a mere fourth-grader. Upon arriving at Canterbury, my parents reiterated to me that a strong work ethic, dedication to my studies, and involvement would open the door to infinite opportunities. As usual, my parents were right. They were also right to send me to a school that allowed me to thrive, while being in such a caring and committed community.

As this year’s President of the Student Body, I could not be more appreciative of my time spent at Canterbury. Holding this position was a goal I set for myself beginning in sixth grade, when I ran for class secretary. I slowly worked up the ranks, and when I returned for my senior year, I decided to give it my all and make my dream a reality.

My motivation was supplemented by the support of my peers and many faculty members who believed in my ability. I would say that my experience as a Canterbury student is a worthy representation of the reason why Canterbury is so special; Canterbury fully invests in its students. Whether you are a scholar-athlete, a musician, an actress, or a researcher, Canterbury will help you achieve your definition of success.

As a new alumna who is about to embark upon the journey to college and beyond, I know I will continue to stay connected to this school. After nine years spent studying, discovering, and learning, I could not be more prepared to enter the next chapter of my life, and I have Canterbury to thank for giving me that confidence.

Looking back, I could not imagine a better place to spend time learning, exploring, and growing. It is Canterbury that showed me I can achieve anything. Some of my wildest and best dreams have been sparked through conversations with the faculty, or interactions with other students. The amount of brainpower that circulates the hallways and classrooms, the laughter that swells in the commons and the courtyards, the unique relationships that form to create trust - I could not be more grateful to this school.

Student Body President Courtney Halle ’16 works with Vice President John Gamba ’17 and House Speaker Joseph Young-Perez ’16

To the Class of 2016: As we begin to part ways, thank you for helping me become a better person through serving you. It has been an honor to represent such wonderful people. In a moment, high school is over and the next chapter of our lives begins. It is an uncomfortable thought to imagine leaving our homes and families behind to start something new, but at the same time, it is equally as exciting. We have so much to look forward to. How exciting is it to think that some of the best moments of our lives haven’t even happened yet? We will charge toward greatness, and if we fall, there will be hundreds of people ready to catch us, many of them who we met through our time at Canterbury.

As we move on toward bigger and better things, we cannot forget to thank those who helped us along the way. The teachers who stayed behind after school and made sure we would ace our test the next day, our parents, whose efforts we sometimes overlook, and our friends, who we leaned on for support during the difficult times, and shared laughter with during some of our most special memories. I’d like to thank Canterbury for allowing me to reach my full potential, for giving me the opportunity to succeed, for bringing the most wonderful people into my life, and, most importantly, for making me certain of the person I am today, and the person I will become.

MOVING ON UP!

Class of 2020 Reflects on Middle School, Prepares for Upper School

“Eighth grade is a year full of memories. These memories are of being nervous and excited. At the beginning of the year, I remember thinking, ‘Will this be a special year?’

I asked some friends what they thought and they all agreed that, ‘Who knows? But at least we have the DC trip.’ So, I thought it might be the usual year. Instead, the year was anything but regular. One thing that was different from the start, we had a new Head of School, Mr. Kirschner. There was a new energy and a lot more activities - assemblies, pep rallies, speakers he brought in. We were always doing something to celebrate, to learn or just be together.” – Ben Talmage ’20 “Looking back on my time in middle school, I wish I could hold onto every moment. But let’s be honest we are going to forget certain things. We might forget who proposed the Heliocentric model, but we’ll remember the friendships we’ve made and how much we’ve grown as people. We might forget what makes a verb transitive or intransitive, but we’ll remember the teacher who patiently explained for the millionth time that transitive verbs have a direct object, while intransitive verbs do not. We will never forget the chances we took, the transformations we’ve undergone, and the memories we have created together in this school. And now we sit here, waiting on what the future holds. So, as this chapter of our lives comes to a close, I am sure we are ready to walk through the next set of doors.” – Summer Meade ’20

THE HISTORY of

Canterbury ’s Seal

by Bill Loughran, Upper School Foreign Language Teacher

Canterbury School’s corporate seal, as it now appears, is the result of a process which followed the growth of the school community from its nascent years in the early 1960s through the 50th anniversary celebrations of the 2014-15 academic year. School seals, like all Latinized sigilla, almost always aim to illustrate an institution’s motto; usually a short series of epigrammatic catchwords or other short dicta which best reflect the depth and breadth of the school’s mission.

From its founding in 1964, Canterbury School employed a motto, at that time, Education, Character, Leadership, promulgating the integral and high-minded ends toward which all endeavors would strive. Along with this motto, we soon witnessed the introduction of various logos, emblems, and insignia which would evolve and change in tandem with the life and growth of the school.

During the 2004-2005 school year, with the governing Board of Trustees’ decision to expand the school motto, adding Service as a fourth hallmark of Canterbury’s mission, a concomitant motion called for the design and application of a new corporate seal that would more accurately reflect the “new” motto’s intent: Education, Character, Leadership, Service. Hence, the Canterbury Seal as we know it today.

Canterbury School’s formal “sigillum" draws on various visual expressions found in the seals of a wide array of academic institutions - some new, some old; some secondary, some post-secondary; some public, others private.

With a nod toward both the motto's English and the more stylized Latin of tradition, the seal incorporates both languages in the hope of inviting the viewer to pause and consider the values at the heart of our academic community's shared vision and enterprise.

The central sigillum is supported by a pair of laurel branches springing from the year of the school's establishment, 1964, or MCMLXVI in Roman numerals. The laurel leaves and Roman numerals allude, albeit subtly, to both the Graeco-Roman origins of our appreciation of learning and the unbroken thread that links us in common cause to the generative work of scholars, philosophers, teachers, and students of the past twenty-five hundred years.

Emblazoned prominently around the central “sceau" or seal are the school's name and physical location, this time in English. The heart of the shield presents a simple circle evenly divided into four quadrants along vertical and horizontal axes. Here, the seal proclaims the school's core values, those articulated in the Canterbury motto: Education, Character, Leadership, Service. This time, however, these guiding values are presented by images and Latin titles.

Beginning in the upper left quadrant, an open book and the Latin noun “eruditio" {erudition, erudite} stress the importance of scholarship and education. To its right, in the second upper quarter, one finds a column with its Ionic capital and the Latin “mores" {mos, moris = commonly shared social values}. This, of course, places emphasis on what we share in common as “the good" or “character” - and its place as a "pillar" of our work together.

The lower left panel of the circle presents both a gavel and the Latin noun “ductus" {induce, conduct, duke}, signaling that any leader must, like it or not, make decisions. Finally, in the lower right of the central blazon, we find a pair of open, willing hands and the Latin “officium." To the Romans, “officium" meant service to themselves, to one another, and to those in need. An ancient Roman, acting in his “official capacity," was wont to “lend a hand."

Linking, (and I choose my words carefully!), all four quadrants one with the other and encircling them in unifying strength is a single chain, reminding one and all that, just as a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, we need - one and all - to look to these values and remind ourselves of the strength we draw from those four values. n 20

“The Kindness Club taught me to work as a team, be a leader, and give back to the community.”

KINDNESS is Contagious

by Holly Pollard, Intermediate School English Teacher

The Kindness Club began three years ago when Ms. Evonne Clapper, a guidance counselor at Canterbury School, wanted to provide Intermediate School students with the opportunity to give through acts of service. The Kindness Club’s mission is to make a difference in the lives of others through simple acts of kindness. Throughout the year, Mrs. Ida Bonnèmere, a French teacher at Canterbury, and I help guide the students with these special moments. Here are just a few of ways the club has made a difference: • All faculty and staff are recognized each year with a “Candy Gram.” This is a personal note written by the students thanking the staff or faculty member for their service to Canterbury, whether it’s teaching a class, helping maintain the buildings or serving a meal. The note has a piece of candy attached.

• Origami puzzles and tangrams were assembled by club members for children confined to a local hospital.

• A book drive for the Children’s Advocacy Center was sparked by Lisa Rizzio, who spoke to the Kindness Club about the center’s role in the lives of local children. Students were touched by the plights of these local children and collected books for pre-K through high school students. A book will be given to every child or young person when they visit the center for services. n

“The Kindness Club taught me to respect a king the same as you would respect unfortunate people. It also taught me to care for the environment and people that are not as fortunate as me.” – Zachary Roberts ’23 “The Kindness Club has taught us to care for the environment, and to think of the needs of others who may not be as fortunate as we are.” – Nathaniel Laquis ’23 21

THE ARTS ARE ALIVE at Canterbury!

Whether it was on the stage or in the studio, our students had a fantastic year expressing themselves through the arts. Our Fall Play, Rhinoceros, and our Spring Musical, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, were both full of talent. Throughout the year, we witnessed students of all ages shine on stage.

We enjoyed great music, art exhibits, and improv during our first-ever Arts After Dark event. Many of our magnificent musicians and amazing artists were recognized at local, regional, and state competitions.

“Education utilizing the arts encourages whole-brain functioning, cultivates new perspectives and insights, stimulates and motivates the inner person, enhances self-concepts, and develops an aesthetic dimension.�

Ms. Catherine Truesdale, Music & Performing Arts Teacher 25

Future Ready Learning at Canterbury School

by Jennifer Stephenson, Data Integration Specialist for K-12

Did you know our kindergarten students can explain how to debug a line of code? At Canterbury, computer science starts as early as three years old, and it extends through all divisions of our school. Computer science is foundational for every industry today. Currently, computing jobs outnumber students graduating into the field by 3-to-1. Canterbury recognizes that our students need these skills to be ready for the future.

To boost our students’ computer skills, this past year Canterbury School participated in the #HourofCode. This is a world-wide initiative to introduce coding to all students.

We even invited parents to code alongside their children in first through third grades.

The week-long event was a fun way to show our community that anyone can learn the basics of coding.

Canterbury also held its inaugural Full STEAM Ahead event this year. STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. Parents and students in our Lower School spent a Saturday afternoon rotating through different STEAM-related activities. They were introduced to Kahoot, a gaming system used by our teachers for a review of concepts taught in class. They

26

also spent time in our Science Discovery Center learning about Lego Robotics. In one rotation, students taught their parents about Osmo, an accessory for the iPad with groundbreaking technology. They also spent time collaboratively coding our Ozobot robots. The event was a great success and we cannot wait to host a bigger and better event in the fall.

In the Upper School, the Swift Programming Independent Study introduces students to the fundamentals of app development.

Students demonstrate learning in a number of projects, including games and organization apps that they can actually install and use on their own iOS mobile devices. The Upper School also started a Tech Club this past year, led by myself and Cesar Cuevas from Entech.

In the new school year, Tech Club members plan to host a Help Desk to assist students with their devices. They are also training to fly our school drone and help with aerial footage of school events. On top of all of that, Upper School students also had the opportunity to participate in our after-school Robotics Club.

Students in our Intermediate and Middle Schools had a great time this year participating in Skype in the Classroom. Skype breaks down the barriers of communication and allows students to make global connections. We also saw an increase in classroom collaboration throughout the Intermediate and Middle School with the use of Google Apps for Education. These apps are free productivity tools that allow students to create and complete assignments seamlessly.

This is just a glimpse of the many digital tools being utilized each and every day at Canterbury School. Just take a quick walk around campus and you will certainly find students engaged and learning with technology. It is truly a powerful and necessary educational resource.

Even more new technology is headed to Canterbury for the 2016-2017 school year!

Ollie will be rolling into the Lower School for enhanced coding and project-based learning.

Parrot Mini Drones will be rolling and flying

in the Middle School during a new Cougar Tech course that emphasizes coding. Finally, Globaloria will be introduced in the Middle School as a Gaming and Coding course and in the Upper School as Intro to Computer Science with an emphasis on JavaScript and HTML. I am proud to say that Future Ready Learning is in full effect at Canterbury. n

STATE

CHAMPIONS

BELIEVE Throughout the year, I had a feeling that this team was something special. We were not only an extremely talented team, but also a team that didn’t care about statistics and only what the final score was at the end of the game. We were a group of collegiate ballplayers who used our talents to benefit the team’s success, not ourselves. Statistics did not matter to us, as long as we came out on top, and that is how it should be.

by Carter Smith ’16

We took our first, and only, loss of the season against Calvary Christian High School, and it was our first game of a doubleheader. We could have easily let our loss get the best of us, but we bounced back and ended up winning our second game against a solid team from Cardinal Mooney High School. That shows the drive and savvy we had to come back and start a new streak that would ultimately lead us to a State Championship.

This team thrives on pitching and defense. A great example of this would be the State Semifinal against Maclay School. We played 11 innings of nail-biting baseball! If it wasn’t for great pitching and defense, along with two clutch hits

by Tyler Shuck ’17 and Sam Keating ’17, we would not have come out on top.

I knew this team was special from the start. No weak spot in our lineup, no holes in our defense, and the drive we had to win was at an all-time high the whole season. One thing that cannot go without mentioning is the utmost support of our whole school, throughout the year. Any school that makes it a half-day of class just so they can take busses to watch us play a State Semifinal Game deserves recognition. They offered the best baseball atmosphere I have ever been able to play under, and seeing the amount of people wearing the Cougar blue in the stands was an amazing experience. Although many of us seniors will be continuing our baseball careers at the next level, I will never forget this journey that brought us together as a family. Without this incredible family, we could not have achieved every high school ballplayers' dream of a State Championship title. n

REFLECTIONS ON OUTWARD BOUND After Five Days of Canoeing in the Everglades and Ten Thousand Islands by The Class of 2019 Outward Bound is a week-long wilderness adventure for freshmen.

The experience is one of the most memorable for many Canterbury students as it is the place where friendships are built that will last throughout high school and beyond.

I APPRECIATE…. … the work the whole group put in, to work toward every goal we had. … my crew and my instructors. … everything. … dry land, a LOT more. … the wonderful comforts of my home and the companionship of living with and going through hardships with my friends. … my dishwasher, my bed, my air conditioning, and my shower. … the beauty and strength of the wild, the opportunity to remember this same strength is also a part of me, and I am a part of the wild.

I LEARNED THAT …. … I can do anything I set my mind to. … a lot of canoeing experience can really pay off on trips like this, especially when you are the only solo canoe heading through the wavy Gulf of Mexico. … I can do more than I thought I could. … I can effectively work with a group.

Canterbury School is proud to announce Extravaganza 2016 Starry, Starry Night was a huge success, raising more than $225,000!

The event took place on the evening of April 2, 2016, inside Canterbury’s Murphy Sports Center, which was transformed into a magical venue, complete with a starry sky above. Canterbury School wishes to thank everyone who gathered for a night of great food, live music, dancing, and fabulous auction items. We had more than 250 people in attendance, the highest we have had in 10 years. Canterbury would also like to extend gratitude to our presenting sponsor, Mr. Joe Catti and FineMark National Bank & Trust, along with our many other generous sponsors.

Thank you to our fabulous emcee for the evening, NBC2 news anchor Kellie Burns, and Jay Severson, who served as the auctioneer for the event.

“We have a great life, but some other kids do not.

It is important to reach out and help others when we can, and make them smile. It’s all about happiness.”

Jessica Marchese ’25

Learning to GIVE BACK Volunteerism plays a key role in the educational experience at Canterbury. Our faculty and staff strive to incorporate community engagement in various ways throughout the school year.

What sets Canterbury apart from other schools is, we let our students explore the benefits of community service at a very early age, starting in our Lower School classrooms. Our thirdgraders learn about protecting the environment by taking the lead on recycling responsibilities in the Lower School. Students also reach out to others in the community through activities, like food and toy drives, as well as visiting our elderly friends at a nearby retirement care center.

“These service opportunities make us happy, too. This year we visited Brookdale and sang for the seniors there. When I saw them smile it made me smile as well.” - Ella Cameratta ’25

Canterbury School Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame

Lieutenant Morgan Macdermott Boyd, ’02,

Lt. Morgan Macdermott Boyd ’02 and her mother, Kim Storch, at the 2015 All School Reunion held on December 18, 2015.

was awarded the 2015 Distinguished Alumni Award at the 2015 All School Reunion. This is an annual award and was first given to the Honorable Judge Tara Paluck (’87) in 2014. The award recognizes individuals who exemplify the mission of Canterbury through their professional and personal achievements. They must embody the four tenets of Canterbury’s mission: Leadership, Character, Service, and Excellence. Morgan was nominated for this award by her mother, Kim Storch, who works at Canterbury in the Lower School.

Her mom says, “Morgan is one of the extraordinary men and women who ensure our safety and freedom. These selfless men and women are our country’s ultimate patriots. Their service and sacrifices are worthy of appreciation and recognition. Morgan found her mission, brotherhood, sacrifices, and love of country. Always one to test herself, by serving in the United States Navy – she is doing something that matters. She is serving something bigger than herself – she is always thinking of others. Morgan lives a good life – a life of courage, sacrifice and love.”

Morgan is a graduate from Carnegie Mellon on a Naval ROTC scholarship. Morgan is at MacDill Air Force Base and is a Lieutenant in the Navy. Morgan and her husband, Derek, are the proud parents of three adorable children.

Morgan’s first tour of duty was supporting Operation Enduring Freedom, doing oil platform defense and counter-piracy operations on the USS Nicholas. She received the Surface Warfare Enterprise Outstanding Performance Award, has two Navy and Marine Corps commendation medals, three Navy and Marine Corps achievement medals, a Sea Service Deployment ribbon, served in humanitarian aid efforts in Haiti and disaster relief and somehow found the time to receive the Canterbury 2015 Distinguished Alumni Award.

In Her Own Words “Canterbury allowed me to be anything and everything I wanted to be. I was able to be on the French team and the Spanish team, the math team and sports teams. I could try volleyball, basketball, tennis, and cross-country, even though I wasn't very good at any of them! I was able to be a part of so many groups that taught me the team-building and leadership I needed later on in my career. The thing that has always stuck out in my mind about Canterbury is the ability for students to be involved in so many different things, without being pigeonholed: the nerd can be the popular kid, who can also be the athlete. No one has to get stuck playing a part. We were able to explore all options and build teams around who we wanted to be. Where else can you do that?”

Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame Do you know a Canterbury alumnus/alumna who exemplifies the mission of Canterbury School through their professional and personal achievements?

How to Plan a Canterbury Reunion in 10 Easy Steps

by Andrea Bailey Cox ’95

›› Graduate with a brilliant group of peers from one of the best independent college prep schools in the country.

This one isn’t as easy as it seems, but it is well worth it!

›› Count how many years it’s been since you graduated. Are you close to a 5 or 10 year milestone? If so, start planning.

›› Create a small group of the alums closest to you, as a planning committee. Call your group something cooler than a planning committee, if you’d like. Start connecting via Facebook, email, phone, and through Canterbury’s alumni office, with all of your former classmates. This part is easy because, really, how many of you are there? 25?

30? 40? Most high schools have to coordinate for hundreds of students. You can do this.

›› Suggest some dates to those who are most enthusiastic about getting together. Choose a date at least three months

out and a location that works best for those who are most interested. Ideally, the location should encourage a connection to Canterbury and an opportunity for everyone to spend time with each other, over a long weekend.

It’s going to take several hours for everyone to reconnect and get comfortable, so make it more than a one-night party.

›› Keep in touch with the group and Canterbury over the few months leading up to the reunion to encourage participation. No need for expensive invites or weekly updates. Post fun photos from the yearbook to encourage nostalgia and remind everyone how important you were to each other.

›› As it gets closer, gather RSVPs. The group that is committed to attending should decide on activities. Don’t

over plan though. Authentic engagement rarely happens over team building or trust exercises. One of the most important decisions is whether this is family-friendly or for adults only. This decision will happen naturally depending on where everyone is in their life. At our 20 year reunion, those of us with young children were happy to enjoy a kid-free weekend.

›› Let the hotel know how many are coming. Even if it’s a small group of 10, hotels are happy to host reunions and will often give a discounted rate. Make dinner reservations for the nights and start to pack your bags.

›› It’s here! The big weekend! Unpack, relax, catch up, share stories, enjoy good food and drink, and take lots of

photos. Don’t have so much fun that the hotel manager has to come out for a noise complaint. This is an important step. You are grown adults.

›› Start a text-thread or Facebook group to share photos from the weekend, stay in touch, and share ongoing jokes. ›› Start thinking about the next reunion!

Last June, the CLASS OF 1995 celebrated the two decades that occurred in our lives since graduating. It sounded like fun as we planned it, but it wasn’t until we all met up that the camaraderie we all once shared blossomed again.

Old friends became new again and we all took the time to remember one of the most influential times in our lives.

One of the many benefits of graduating from a small, private school is that it is incredibly easy to get your classmates together for a reunion. Consider planning your own reunion to reconnect with old friends and with the place and the teachers who helped make you who you are professionally and personally.

THANK YOU for Helping Us Reach Our Goal!

by Lea Pascotto ’95, Director of Advancement On May 26, 2016, I had the pleasure of hearing David Lucas speak about the concept of being a “servant leader.” It is very easy for Mr. Lucas to illustrate this concept because he is a true servant leader. Not only has he changed the physical landscape of Southwest Florida through his residential developments, he has also greatly influenced the culture of philanthropy locally. He channels his giving into three categories: education, helping others who are less fortunate, and supporting his church’s ministries. For nearly 35 years, Canterbury has been a beneficiary of David and Linda Lucas’ generosity.

This year, David Lucas challenged the Canterbury community to give back to our school with The Lucas Challenge. He generously matched any new or increased gift dollar for dollar. With this challenge, I am thrilled to report that we exceeded our goal this year for the Canterbury Fund! I want to thank everyone who donated. Also, a huge thank you to David and Linda Lucas, not only for your incredible financial support, but your support in helping us build a culture of giving here at Canterbury School. It is a big undertaking to transform a culture. The only way we do this, is one step at a time.

Canterbury School was pleased to have Mr. David Lucas throw out the ceremonial first pitch at the 2016 FHSAA Class 3A Baseball State Semifinal game on May 13, 2016.

It is a big undertaking to transform a culture.

The only way we do this, is one step at a time.
