Message from the Head of School

Lisa Koger

It’s hard to believe we are at the end of the first semester of the 2011-2012 school year; but what a wonderful first half it has been!

As this year began, we broke ground on the Paul W. Mason Middle School Expansion. This project will most importantly offer FWCD and Breakthrough students and faculty an adequate amount of space Caroline Klein ’23, Jaiden Patel ’23, Evan D. for a comfortable learning Peterson, Lauren Ingram ’23, and Christopher environment in addition to an Baker ’23 read I Knew Two Who Said Moo. increase in entry points between sixth and eighth grades. (Read more on the Middle School expansion on pg. 34.)

We are experiencing several enhancements and pilot programs on campus this year.

Lower School has a new leveled reading library while Upper School has incorporated a Praxis program in its curriculum. Each of these programs is designed to enhance each student’s educational experience here at FWCD. Please read the article “What’s Going on at FWCD?” to learn more about these new academic programs.

In October, we achieved yet another milestone with our 10-year ISAS Accreditation Visit. We received high praises for our accomplishments as well as recommendations to help us successfully move forward. Without a doubt we will receive our accreditation renewal; however, we still have much work to do in order to continue providing the excellent educational foundation for which so many have built their lives upon.

In this issue, we have included the 2010-2011 Annual Report. A sincere thank you is offered to those who have showcased their belief in FWCD through financial gifts.

Whether your contribution aided the Falcon Club, FWCD Fund or Supporting C.A.S.T., your thoughtfulness allows us to move forward in preparing the next generation of doctors, lawyers, teachers and leaders of not only our local community, but our global community as well.

Finally, the Falconer, now in its third volume, showcases only a glimpse of what FWCD students, parents, faculty and staff plan and execute throughout the year. It is one of our many showpieces that in one package, shows why we have remained a frontrunner in the educational arena. I encourage you to share with prospective families as well as neighbors, family and friends the excellence that is taking place on the FWCD campus.

Please have a wonderful and safe winter break. I look forward to seeing each of you in the new year.

Warmly,

Q& A

With FWCD Board President

Russell Laughlin

Since the founding of Fort Worth Country Day, the Board of Trustees has been a vital part of the structure of the School. They ensure that FWCD continues in its role as a nationally recognized college preparatory school; striving to provide the finest community, culture and experience for the best possible preparation of its students.

Every great governing body must possess a leader. The past 21 elected FWCD Board presidents embraced the mission and vision for the School and each helped guide Fort Worth Country Day over the last half century. russell Laughlin, the 2011-2012 and 22nd board president, is no exception.

His dynamic leadership qualities coupled with his passion for the school that he, his wife, Kathryn, and children, russell ’08 and Kate ’15, call home, has elevated him to this important position during a pivotal time for the School.

FWCD matched what we were looking for and then some. While the academic side of FWCD was without question, it was seeing students comfortable in their own skin, who could speak well, interact, critically think and at the end of the day, be good citizens and strong leaders that helped us in our decision process. And when our son, Russell, graduated, we were able to say FWCD provided an outstanding education and helped develop a good, well rounded, young man. He was definitely prepared for college.

When you and your wife were searching for a school for Russell and Kate, what drew you to FWCD? We lived in Dallas for 18 years. Both Kathryn and I were educated by the public school system and were great supporters.

We began looking at moving to Fort Worth in the late 1990’s and were interested in finding a school that was comparable to the education that we both experienced.

We found that the quality of education at FALCONER

was in Upper School, Kathryn and I were Falcon Club co-presidents. We had been watching the energy around athletics and wondered if there was anything that the Falcon Club could do to jazz things up a bit. We went to band director Chuck Kraus and asked what was needed to get his band to be loud and large for football games. With Chuck, we came up with a plan to have the TCU Band and Drum Corp come out to the first game and perform with his band members. It was awesome seeing the energy and excitement created when the Falcon band joined the TCU band. Now it’s great to see Chuck at the games with students who are dedicated to supporting athletics and the School through their musical talents.

You mentioned that your mentor is Ross Perot. What are a couple of key lessons you can share that you’ve applied to your career?

The first thing would be, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. There are no short cuts. There’s no easy way to do it. It’s hard work; it’s a grindstone; it’s consistency.

[You have to] have a plan; execute it; stay with it; and at the end of the day you’ll succeed. You can apply that to everything business, personal life and education.

The second thing is, you give back more than you take. If you are in the business world for many years and you’ve given back more to your community than you’ve taken, you’ve succeeded. More importantly, if you reverse that, your success will be short-lived. Ross Perot, Sr., and Jr. lead by example and have instilled this into

every employee. I hope that the FWCD community can see this through my family’s interaction with the School.

In August, you addressed the faculty and staff at our all-staff meeting.

You spoke not only on what’s on the horizon for the next two years, but also on how the Board was preparing for the next 50 years. How do you see the Board contributing to the future, advancement and sustainability of FWCD? The Board’s success is a result of great vision and years of hard work from past leadership. Our first priority this year was to validate the appropriateness of the Strategic Plan for the coming years.

We review the plan regularly to ensure it continues to be relative and aligns with the mission of the school. As FWCD approaches its 50th year, this board is focused on the next 50 years and linking the visions and plans of the school to the community. This board is challenging itself to evaluate long term financial needs, campus and facility requirements, external influences, such as adjacent development, and continuing to attract, develop and retain great faculty and administrative personnel. As a mature school we are mindful of where we’ve been; drawing upon past success and failure. Short and long term goals, master plans, strategic calendars and financial models have been developed and updated to be used by this and future boards in guiding FWCD into the future.

At FWCD we instill in each student, from kindergarten to graduation, the concept of leadership. As a parent, Hillwood senior vice president and FWCD Board president, how important is it to you to convey the message of learning how to be a leader?

It is absolutely the number one requirement from my perspective. There aren’t enough leaders being developed in our schools today. However, FWCD stands out in that regard because it encourages, if not demands, leadership at all levels and in many types of activities. Here our children are provided opportunities to stretch beyond their capabilities. This, of course, means learning how to deal with difficulties, challenges and failure – all of which teaches leadership. As I mentioned before, young men and women comfortable in their own skin can and will be leaders. When my son Russell graduated, he left with the ability to lead, and Kate is learning that now.

As the senior vice president of Hillwood Properties, what does your position entail and how do you use your professional expertise in your FWCD roles?

In a recent interview, Laughlin shared some thoughts on his career, leadership and the reason he and Kathryn chose FWCD.

an undergraduate degree in landscape architecture and city planning as well as an MBA in real estate finance. My background is rooted in preservation of land through good stewardship and master plans, so I felt comfortable working on the FWCD strategic and campus master plans. That’s the sort of thing that I love.

Water resources, open spaces, the right mix of new and old improvements, how to get there, infrastructure, utilities ... everything that affects this campus is exactly what I do. So when I volunteered for the Buildings and Ground committee, I thought I had the skill set to help the School move forward.

Kathryn, Kate’15 and Russell Laughlin

Do you have a particular FWCD memory as a parent that you would consider your favorite?

Absolutely! Kathryn and I grew up in Midland where football is king, and a big part of that experience is the large student band participation. So when we came to FWCD we were taken aback by how different things were here. When Russell

Hillwood, a Perot company, is a real estate development company. I’m responsible for land development activities which encompasses acquisition, planning, preparation, entitlement and development of approximately 20,000 acres. While my work entails traditional real estate development activities, it also requires extensive partnering with federal, state, county and local officials in the regulatory world which affects Hillwood’s ability to develop land and execute a master plan over many decades.

Third Graders Show Off Their Characters The third grade Book Character Assembly has become a tradition at FWCD. Students choose and dress up as their favorite book character for what is usually their first solo performance in front of an audience. Students also write their lines and help design their set.

It’s an opportunity for them to explore their character and book of choice.

An Inspiration to Give Lower School student Katie Bynum ’20 hosted her second annual Donation Celebration, a kid-run yard sale. Donation Celebration is an event in which new and used children’s items are sold with 100 percent of the proceeds donated to The Jo Kelly School for children with special needs.

In the spring, Bynum began her philanthropic journey by raising more than $350 for The Jo Kelly School. Inspired by the book Out of My Mind, this fall Bynum along with Charlie Bynum ’22, mary elizabeth murrin ’20, Caroline staniford ’20, Julia Petsche ’20 and mia Fleischer ’20 raised over $3,100. The donation will aid in the construction of the school’s playground. Bynum also donated three copies of the book to the FWCD Moncrief Library.

This year, students chose characters form books such as Tales From the Odyssey, Judy Moody Around the World in 8 ½ Days and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

Bynum was featured on NBC 5 Tell Me Something Good in the spring and will be interviewed by Be An Angel Foundation on Houston radio.

Katie Bynum ’20 presented Jane Coté, principal of Jo Kelly School, with $3,100.

Animal-assisted therapy and activity (AAT/AAA) are useful modalities that can be easily incorporated into the counseling and school setting. Animals in counseling sessions and the classroom facilitate an atmosphere of trust, nurturance, and relationship building. The therapy animal is a non-judgmental companion in the process of learning and development, for the animal offers nurturance through the presentation of unconditional acceptance and interaction.

For many years, FWCD seventh graders have taken an annual trip to the Botanical Research Institute of Texas. Last year, they were unable to attend since BRIT was preparing for the move from their warehouse in downtown Fort Worth to their new facilities by the Botanical Gardens. Seventh graders this year were able to re-establish their relationship with BRIT by taking their first field trip to the new building in October.

Students learned from BRIT scientists about the research, development, and installation of their green roof. This included a lesson in the function and value of our native Texas plants as well as how to capture rainwater runoff for use on the grounds. Students toured the herbarium with a BRIT field researcher and were instructed on how specimens are collected and preserved. They also received a lesson from BRIT’s librarian, Gary Jennings, husband to our own librarian, debby Jennings. Lastly, our students had the opportunity to learn the differences between natural and manmade soils through their own observations and testing of unidentified samples. fwcd.org

The Battle of Bryant Irvin – The Debate!

This year, middle school had the opportunity to formally debate against middle school students from Trinity Valley School. Thirteen seventh and eighth grade students spent every Wednesday (and a couple of lunch recesses) preparing with Middle School Assistant Division Head Chaka Cummings and learning debate decorum, logical fallacies, types of evidence, techniques and strategies crucial to forming a solid argument.

Oct. 25, seventh and eighth grade classes watched students debate the resolution: Middle schools should incorporate the technology students use into the curriculum and, therefore, allow the use of such technologies during school hours. FWCD was the affirmative team, arguing for the resolution, while TVS was the negative team arguing against the resolution.

“We had a packed house, incredible judges and the best time keeper ever,” Cummings said. “In the end, TVS won the closely contested debate; our middle school students had a blast; and they learned a lot about public speaking and cooperative argumentation.”

Middle School Debate Club members are: Alex doswell ’16, isabel Gray ’16, michael Jacobson ’16, david Lonergan ’17, Austin Westermann ’16, matt Williams ’16, matt Aufiero ’17, Julian Cedillo ’17, edie Huling ’17, Jared imber ’17, Thomas mullins ’17, Harry Thomas ’17 and Joanne Wu ’17.

Dodgeball for Charity Event Raises Funds for School in Tanzania

The goal is to educate people about water resource management and how our actions affect the quantity and quality of water available. After being in a drought this year and with predictions of a longer drought, water is a very precious resource to Texans. The native grasses represent the prairie or a green roof. The shingles would be a conventional rooftop and the parking lot demonstrates the effects of development. Dotty Woodson, Extension Program Specialist of the Water Resources Biological and Agricultural Engineering Department Texas AgriLife Extension Texas A&M System Dallas Research and Extension Center, guided the students through the assembly process.

Abby Cox ’12 chaired this year’s event, which raised more than $900. Proceeds will be sent to the Janada Batchelor Foundation for Children Secondary School in Tanzania where former US College Counselor Julia Ando is volunteering this year. The school plans to use the funds for science lab equipment.

With funding from their third Texas Healthy Habitats grant, the students were able to have the frame built and purchase the needed equipment. Students who assisted in the building process included: Karina Hudak ’12, John Jiongo ’12, ryder nguyen ’12, Kunal Patel ’12, Cameron slife ’12, Haley stratton ’12, Kate Wall ’12, shelby Butt ’15, Henry Luengas ’15, sarah memon ’15 and sydney mulqueen ’15. The design is similar to the one built at Selah ranch. Perri Carr, the sponsoring teacher, saw the rainfall simulator several years ago during professional development there. The Project Prairie participants would like to thank Encana Oil Gas, Inc., Service Learning Texas and Texas Parks and Wildlife Department for the funding for the grant.

Twelve teams entered the tournament.

First place went to senior team “The Capez”(Kevin murphy, Jake vinson, taylor Washuta, Chase Hale, Cameron Fraser and Blake Waltrip) and in second place was the senior team “The Skamen” (Harrison Genua, Peter Bowden, erick ritter, Heath Harvison, James Chilcoat and max Bunch).

Several students from Project Prairie researched and built a rainfall simulator to educate our community about watersheds and how land use affects the path (or fate) of water. The rainfall simulator has a metal frame to hold water-filled tubs above landscape trays, and water collection containers. The water-filled tubs have tiny perforations to allow water to Cameron Slife ’12 and Dotty Woodson drill “rain” onto the landscape trays. The students holes to create a raindrop effect for the rain created four different landscapes: typical simulator. lawn grasses, native prairie grasses, a shingled roof, and a paved parking lot. The water collection containers catch surface run-off and groundwater to demonstrate the fate of rain on the various land surfaces.

Each September, the National Merit Scholarship Corporation recognizes approximately 16,000 academically talented students from across the nation by naming them National Merit Semifinalists. (This year’s Texas cutoff score was 219 out of the 240 points available on the test.) The number of Semifinalists in a state is proportional to the state’s percentage of the national total of graduating seniors. We are pleased to announce our six National Merit Semifinalists: (front row) seniors Jennie Yoon, margaret Lee, shree Bose (back row) Phillip diffley, Allison Hunt, and mariano Aufiero.

Eleven seniors have been named National Merit Commended Students for scoring between 202 and 218 on the 2010 PSAT. Even though Commended Students do not advance in the competition for National Merit scholarships, these students are among the nation’s top 34,000 PSAT test takers.

FWCD is delighted to recognize the following National Merit Commended Students: (front row) Kate Wall, Alex Gates, Francesca roberts, errett Williams (back row) Jay Kurani, Harrison Genua, dane dyslin, michael mcGarry, Peter Bowden, stephen Levy, and martin Payne. mariano Aufiero has also been named a National Hispanic Scholar. Initiated in 1983, the National Hispanic Recognition Program (NHRP) identifies outstanding Hispanic/Latino high school students. This year, NHRP recognized nearly 5,000 students selected from a pool of over 200,000 students who took the 2010 PSAT/NMSQT and identified themselves as Hispanic/Latino. Students recognized by NHRP are at least onequarter Hispanic/Latino (based on the program’s definition) and have achieved a minimum PSAT/NMSQT score for their region. fall/winter 2011

Divisions Celebrate Red Ribbon Week Red Ribbon Week began in remembrance of KiKi Camarena, the Drug Enforcement Administration agent killed in service in the War on Drugs in 1985. The week is designed to provide education for teens that would prevent them from using drugs. This special week has since grown to include prevention of underage drinking and tobacco use.

Each division celebrated it’s own form of Red Ribbon Week. Lower School kicked things off with a performance by the Lower School choir and a Fun Run. The Lower School choir presented a program entitled “Forever Free” and in the first scene recited the following pledge, I pledge to live a life of Integrity and to do what it takes to show respect for myself and others.

I will say “no” to what may harm my body or character and “yes” to my own self-worth.

Third and fourth graders wore red T-shirts and ran a small course as kindergarten through second grades supported and cheered them on.

Students also wore red ribbons throughout the week as they learned the importance of having and maintaining a healthy body.

Although Upper School had an abbreviated Red Ribbon Week, they were able to hear FWCD alumnus robert ritter’s ’06 story concerning drinking and driving.

Ritter was paralyzed from the waist down after a car accident as a result of drinking and driving. He encouraged students to be resilient when tough times come in life, just as he had to when faced with paralysis.

I will encourage my friends to join me and to stand up for what is right.

Middle School ended the weeks of activities with themed dress-up days. Student Council members and Falcons Against Drinking and Drugs volunteers began the week with a presentation honoring Camarena. Throughout the week, students ran a Red Ribbon Week Fair in the Commons with educational games and activities to teach kids about the harmful effects of drugs and alcohol on the teenage brain, the legal issues involved with underage drinking and driving, and the long-term effects of tobacco use. Students tried on goggles that displayed the visual distortion experienced from high blood alcohol levels and saw what a person who’s been drinking is able to visualize while driving. Student Council also led Grim Reaper Day, demonstrating the devastating numbers of smoking-related deaths per day in the United States.

Homecoming 2011 Homecoming is an opportunity for alumni to visit the place where many of them spent their entire primary and secondary academic careers. It’s the chance to see old and familiar faces, catch up on events that may have taken place after graduation and reminisce on those that happened before. Homecoming weekend also provides a chance to see the many changes on campus.

This year the FWCD classes of 1971, 1976, 1981, 1986, 1991, 1996, 2001 and 2006 reunited to create new memories. The Alumni Awards took place Thursday night on the FWCD campus.

Alumni, family, friends, faculty and staff came together for a cocktail reception and dinner to celebrate the accomplishments of this year’s award recipients (see page 48 for more details).

Friday night’s homecoming game and alumni activities unfortunately were interrupted by unpredictable Texas weather.

Luckily, alumni campus tours and the football game still took place. The Falcons defeated Cistercian Preparatory School, 10-0, and seniors Peter Bowden and Callie strock were crowned king and queen, respectively.

Rehearsal for Murder Photos by Glen E. Ellman Upper School students performed “Rehearsal for Murder” as this year’s fall play. In the play, Playwright Alex Denison is on the verge of marrying a glamorous film star, Monica Wells, but a few hours after her Broadway debut, Wells is found dead, an apparent suicide.

Convinced that Wells was murdered, Denison contacts the most likely suspects and assembles them in an empty theater under the pretext of reading his latest play. Denison then locks the door and in the words of Hamlet, attempts to “catch the conscience” of the killer (synopsis courtesy of Natalie Bracken).

Kirstin mullins, ’13, played the dual role of actor (Loretta) and assistant director in the Upper School fall play “Rehearsal for Murder.” She is certainly no stranger to the stage, taking dance from The Gayle Corkery School of Ballet for 12 years and voice lessons for the last two. When asked about her experience, Mullins said that directing was more fun than she expected.

“I took all the notes on corrections,” Mullins said. “This made me realize how important it is for an actor to get the corrections the first time. Now I have so much respect for those who direct!”

Mullins still prefers to be on stage rather than behind the scenes, but is so appreciative that she had the chance to be on the production side. Will theater be in her future? She’s not sure yet, but will miss her theater family dearly when she graduates.

Concussions are a growing concern across the nation, especially among young athletes. The definition of a concussion is a disturbance to the brain following a blow to the head or violent shaking. Because of its lack of visual injury, other forms of assessment must be used to evaluate a potentially concussed athlete. Some of the most obvious symptoms observed are mental confusion, loss of balance and memory loss. Diagnosis of a concussion is critical. Athletes who are not fully recovered from an initial concussion are significantly more vulnerable for recurrent, cumulative, and even catastrophic consequences of a second concussion. Fort Worth Country Day is proud to say they have a very thorough and impressive protocol in place.

TWiNNiNG! The varsity field hockey team ended their season as the SPC Division I runner-ups and the North Zone Champions. The Falcons beat St. Stephen’s Episcopal School of Austin and All Saints’ Episcopal School to earn a spot in the championship game. The Falcons played an intense game against St. John’s for the title. The Falcons fought hard, but lost in double overtime.

“It was an amazing game,” Coach Paige Farris Chisholm ’87 said. “I could not have asked for any more from the team; they left everything on the field. We have no regrets.”

A unique aspect of this team is that of the 20 players on the roster, nine of them are a twin or a triplet. The hardest part of this is that there were three sets of identical twins. It did add for a bit of humor trying to figure out how to tell them all apart. Of the nine, eight will be returning next year, so hopefully we can remember how to tell the difference.

This past summer, Governor Rick Perry passed Natasha’s Law for the state of Texas that mandates a certain protocol for concussions.

The law went into effect Sept. 1, 2011, but FWCD was ahead of the game. The School was meeting and exceeding all the recommendations of the new law many years prior to its mandate.

The only piece that was missing from the FWCD protocol was written consent from a parent or guardian to acknowledge the risk associated with a concussion before their child is allowed to return to play.

During the summer of 2010, FWCD added ImPACT (Immediate PostConcussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing) to their concussion protocol. This test allows the athletic trainers at FWCD to provide the most up-to-date care and technology for their concussed athletes.

No two concussions are alike and each student must be evaluated individually based on their own symptoms.

ImPACT is the first, most widely used, and most scientifically validated computerized concussion evaluation system. A concussion is a metabolic rather than a structural injury; this is what sets a concussion apart from all other athletic

administered during their athletic period. Their personal baseline is what allows the athletic trainers and doctors to evaluate each student individually. Along with the computerized test, there are several other components such as current symptoms, balance and mental tests administered by the athletic trainers.

The results of the ImPACT test must be read by an ImPACT credentialed physician and he or she must be the one to decide if the athlete is ready to progress to the next step in the protocol in hopes of getting released back to play. Currently, dr. damond Blueitt is the only licensed physician in Fort Worth who is able to read the test. Dr. Blueitt works closely with the athletic trainers to keep them updated on the athlete’s status.

injuries. Therefore, the ImPACT is designed to test the athletes’ cognitive function (attention span, working memory, non-verbal problem solving and reaction time). On the other hand, CT scans, MRIs and EEG tests are used when there are more serious structural concerns, such as skull fracture, hematomas and contusions of the brain.

“While the ImPACT test is only one piece of the concussion management protocol, it is extremely important because it takes a lot of the guesswork out of the process,” Trainer ed Chisholm said. “In years past, we tried to distinguish whether an athlete had a mild, moderate or severe concussion.

Present research has simplified this as either concussed or not.”

At FWCD, all student athletes in grades seven through 12 must take an initial baseline ImPACT test. The baseline test must be updated every two years. The test takes around 30 minutes and is usually

“The thorough and conscientious nature of FWCD’s concussion protocol gave us the much needed reassurance that the primary concern was with our child’s well-being, both physical and mental,” FWCD parent scott Prince said.

“We received in-depth, well researched information on concussions and each day we were called by the trainer tracking our child’s progress. Academically, our child was allowed to make up all work within a reasonable amount of time, giving him ample time to fully recover. We are very grateful for the informed and patient treatment we received during this very difficult time.”

Athletic injuries are sometimes unavoidable, but it is reassuring that FWCD has incredible resources to insure the very best care for our student athletes. With the coordinated effort between the academic teachers, athletic trainers, coaches, administration and area doctors, rest assured that FWCD athletes are receiving the finest care possible.

Veterans’ Day Observance

What’s Going On at FWCD?

On Thursday, Nov. 10, the Upper School held its first Veterans’ Day ceremony in the Scott Theater to recognize the service of our military veterans. Members of the Upper School Student Council served as escorts for our guests, three Eagle Scouts made up the Flag Detail, and Dan Foust, Retired Army Colonel and Upper School Math Teacher, served as the emcee.

The program included an invocation by terry Blake, father of Leslie ’15 and valerie Blake ’22 and three speakers: Pete Geren ’70, father of mary Geren ’15; William Gibson, grandfather of morgan Clifton ’13; and dr. Gordon Kelly, grandfather of Hannah Kelly ’14. Other invited guests included: Linda nolan, stephen nolan’s ’15 aunt; Bruce relyea, maddie relyea’s ’13 grandfather; Fred Auld, Cole ’15 and Hunter vick’s ’12 grandfather; and two guests from Town Village Ridgmar: Joe Ballew, ed Polasek.

Each of the speakers shared their personal feelings regarding Veterans’ Day. Geren shared that through many years of public service in Washington, D.C., he saw the National Mall as our nation’s shrine.

After he became Secretary of the Army and his office view over looked Arlington National Cemetery, he realized that this was our ultimate shrine, serving as the final resting place for those whose sacrifies made possible our many other monuments and memorials.

Gibson, who served as an infantry officer in the United States Marine Corps spoke of the “promise of sacrifice” he made to every new inductee he faced and that no one shirked from their calling.

Dr. Kelley told about his service in both the European and Pacific Theaters during WWII and how President Truman’s decision to drop the atomic bomb changed his life, as it eliminated the need for a ground-force invasion of Japan.

Following the inside program, a brief reception was held outside, near the fountain. This provided the students an opportunity to speak personally with our veteran guests.

Samanna Maberry ’17 honors the flag with her grandfather, Sgt. Bill McIntyre, who spoke to students in the Middle School program.

Middle School followed on Friday, Nov. 11, with a short flag ceremony outside of the Moncrief Library by the flag pole with veterans being escorted to the Scott Theater for the Veteran’s Day program. Head of School evan d. Peterson and Head of Middle School John stephens welcomed all veterans and guests while students Cody nicholson ’17, riley Hamburg ’17 and Jack mcConnell ’17 served as emcees.

A Leveled Reading Library by the Numbers

FWCD 2011-2012 Enhancements

By: Shari Lincoln, Head of Lower School

What do the numbers 6, 26, 35, 114, 186, 210, 274, 288, 559, 666, and 5,460 all have in common?

These numbers are all a part of the Lower School’s new leveled reading library!

FWCD Technology

Our leveled library contains 35 titles of books per level, with 26 reading levels spanning readiness levels (level A books) through eighth grade (level Z books), so we always have books that can challenge every reader. What makes a leveled library so wonderful is that it contains 6 copies of every title. Multiple copies mean that these books are perfect for guided reading instructional groups and literature circles because several children can read, study, discuss and respond to the same book in a small group instructional setting. Having multiple copies also enables teachers to expand their own classroom libraries to ensure that they have enough quality literature to meet the reading levels of each student during independent reading time. Let’s do the math: 6 copies each of 35 titles per level and 26 reading levels equals 5,460 books!

Built-in WiFi capabilities and the ability to change instantly from a clamshell (regular laptop) to a tablet PC allows students to naturally switch form-factors as they move between activities and locations in the classroom, a function that educational researchers have termed “micro-mobility.”

The Classmate is built to move the way kids do. The new Intelpowered convertible Classmate PC features a touch-screen with a user interface optimized for e-learning applications, water-resistant keyboard, touchpad and screen, improved ruggedness with drop test from desk height, bump and scratch resistance surfaces and structures and an anti-microbial keyboard. In tablet mode, the “palm rejection” feature ignores the touch of hands resting on the screen, allowing students to write and draw naturally. Another feature, a built-in rotational camera for more natural, intuitive picture taking, allows students to record images or videos for projects. The new Classmate PC features a rechargeable battery with up to eight and a half hours of battery life so students and teachers don’t have to worry about recharging.

The new computers are loaded with e-learning software that helps student and teacher improve learning efficiency by creating a collaborative learning environment.

Classroom Management software allows the teacher to broadcast and show a student’s work; subsequently, a student can do a demonstration for the class from their laptop. Teachers are also able to monitor a student’s PC, even taking control to give individual assistance. Group management abilities allow the teacher to assemble students to work collaboratively and group chat allows the teacher and students to converse with each group as they work.

The software also allows teachers to create, distribute and grade quizzes instantly, freeing valuable time for reviewing non-mastered concepts. Teachers can also distribute files (documents, sound files, pictures) to the students and students in turn can send the teacher files (electronically turning in their homework).

Handwriting Recognition converts handwriting to digital text, even for the messiest writers. Note Taker Manager allows students to take notes with text, insert or draw their own graphics, as well as shape recognition for math and science notes. Painting & Drawing allows students to easily add flair to their work as well as explore their creative side.

Touch Optimized E-Reader with annotation allows students to have access to millions of e-books. They have the ability to read almost any formatted e-book, highlight important passages, create hyperlinks to significant information, take notes and doodle all in the margins.

The FWCD technology department is taking the challenge of making FWCD a green campus very seriously. To help manage and care for the Convertible Classmates, they are using an environmentally friendly mobile computer cart, the EarthWalk Smartcart. High Efficiency Power Management (HE™) EarthWalk wireless mobile computer labs can simultaneously charge all laptops, all additional batteries and power wireless access points as well as all additional peripherals from one standard wall outlet. This unique power management capability allows FWCD to conserve energy with a savings of approximately $633 in the first year, and $1,900 over a three-year period.

So what exactly is a leveled reading library? A leveled reading bookroom is a curricular tool that teachers use to create a reading culture within his or her classroom. Once a child’s reading level has been determined, a teacher can use these leveled readers to ensure that each student is reading “good fit” books that will provide the right amount of reading challenge. Such a leveled library is useless unless it is filled with quality literature that interests our students.

Our collection from Scholastic contains high quality, authentic (not written for a publisher) literature, both fiction and nonfiction in a variety of genres and content areas.

Why is it important to match children with “good fit” books? There are three learning zones (Vygotsky). The Zone of Actual Development is where learners can work independently. Having a class filled with books at a student’s independent level allows that student to become a more fluent reader. The Zone of Proximal Development is where learners complete tasks only with assistance from the teacher. The Frustration Zone is where the work is too difficult even with support. Having a plethora of leveled texts makes it easier for teachers to provide instruction within a student’s Zone of Proximal Development. A leveled library helps us move away from a “teach to the middle” approach of instruction where an instructor uses only one text for an entire classroom and ensures that each student is being fully challenged.

Temi Fabuyi ’23 enjoys reading Horray for the Golly Sisters!

How are the books leveled? When we say that a book is leveled, we are referring to the readability of a book or the amount of challenge a text poses its reader. Readability includes many aspects of a book such as the placement of the text on a page, support of the illustrations, complexity of the language structures and themes, vocabulary, and much more. Calculating the readability of texts is nothing new, and it is important to keep in mind that children should not live on a steady diet of instructional level texts only; they need exposure to a wide range of texts to increase their funds of knowledge as well as enrich their vocabulary.

Speaking of a wide range, let’s get back to those numbers. Our new library has something for every interest: 114 books about space 186 books about sports 274 fairy and folk tales 288 books about math 559 science titles 666 social studies titles and much more fall/winter 2011

FWCD 2011-2012 Pilots Upper School Incorporates Praxis into Curriculum

By: Eric Boberg Chair of the Curriculum Committee and Upper School English teacher According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the post-classical Latin praxis meant “action or practice” and today refers to “the practice or exercise of a technical subject or art, as distinct from the theory of it.” The FWCD Praxis affords Upper School students an opportunity to demonstrate what they’ve learned in their classes by applying their knowledge and skills to a question or problem that requires interdisciplinary collaboration to address or solve. Teachers from different departments work together to design a program that promotes a number of learning goals. First, the program should emanate from curricular skills and knowledge, yet be interdisciplinary in nature. Second, the program should be student focused in that it encourages students to collaborate with one another and take lead roles in the program. Third, the program should draw upon alternative forms of assessment by involving or culminating in presentations, problem solving, demonstrations, or projects instead of more traditional quizzes and tests. Finally, the experience should reflect real-world implications, including public speaking skills, consideration of one’s audience, ethical concerns, and solutions that involve dilemmas and trade-offs instead of clear-cut answers.

Juniors participate in the Nov. 8 conference-style Praxis to discuss their position on “What is an American?”

At least two programs are currently being developed to help the school evaluate the merits of the Praxis. Once during each quarter, juniors will come together in an academic-style conference to present, discuss, and debate their positions about various topics related to time periods and broad themes in United States history. Teachers first prepare a selection of visuals and readings that students discuss in their classes, primarily English and history. From these discussions and additional research, students develop research questions, formulate positions, and volunteer to share their ideas and findings either as members of panels or on posters. Our first conference took place on Sept. 21 in the Goff Dining Room. Ten panelists, including four advanced Spanish students who are seniors and over 20 poster presenters discussed topics related to “Perceptions of the New World.” Initial responses from both students and faculty suggest that the experience was worthwhile and worth developing. On Nov. 8, juniors reconvened for their second conference-style Praxis to discuss their positions on “What is an American?”

Students read, discussed and pursued topics presented to them in their English and history classes and crystalized in a selection of materials that included art, science, poetry, essays, maps, speeches and political cartoons.

Another Praxis that is just unfolding will involve sophomores in case study analysis that will draw upon skills and knowledge learned in their math, history, science, and English classes. Students in AP Government and AP Environmental Science will serve as lobbyists who try to encourage sophomores, roleplaying as politicians, to endorse particular causes, e.g., the environment, consumers, workers, and particular industries. After several collaborative sessions, students will present their drafts of legislation and defend the particular trade-offs they made.

As we work to include all students and disciplines in these opportunities, we also strive to limit the intrusions into academic classes and other responsibilities. Teachers are already devising ways to make the Praxis a challenging, yet stimulating offshoot of what takes place in class by integrating student involvement in the Praxis with assignments and assessments in their own classes. Initial successes of and responses to the program reflect the strength of coursework currently available to students as well as a willingness of teachers to give students more opportunities for greater autonomy and self-directed learning.

Classroom Makeover – FWCD Edition By: Steve Stackhouse Assistant Head of School

If you want a glimpse at the future of the Lower School, you may want to sneak a peek into the classrooms of fourth grade teacher Mary Kay Varley and first grade teacher Sarah Bibb. These two classrooms received a “total makeover” over the summer. The improvements are part of an on-going program to upgrade the interiors of FWCD’s oldest academic building and merge classroom design and instructional theory.

Two years ago, we started a Lower School renovation program that began with updating the hallways, library, and atrium. The idea was to migrate some of the architectural elements from recent construction to upgrade the old building. New lights, new ceiling, fresh paint, and uniform wall fixtures brightened and seemingly enlarged the Lower School’s common spaces.

This past summer, a team of teachers turned their focus on the classrooms. For the better part of a year, they tested furniture samples, consulted with interior designers, and arranged classrooms to foster more small-group instruction. A primary and an intermediate grade classroom were selected for the pilot to encompass the departmental range of both older and younger students.

The “showcase” classrooms are a working template for renovation throughout the building over the next several years. Out with the faded laminate and bowed bookcases, the new classrooms include

fall/winter 2011

a sleeker, more approachable teacher desk, a sit-down instruction table, and reading centers.

The design accommodates more technology including an interactive white board and extra computers. Each student computer center accommodates five computers, but one group is experimenting with tablets that conserve space and are portable.

Students can take them to their desk and then return to a central docking station.

Interestingly, the new furniture line was designed by an educator.

The new chairs are flexible and give ergonomic support. Desks are adjustable and can be nested together. But, the hottest item in the entire room design is a “weeble-style” stool that never tips over and is just right for enthusiastic, but squirmy, students (and teachers).

The human body is not designed to be static. Because the natural behavior of children is fundamental in the design and function of classroom furniture, students need chairs that can help them twist and rock back and forth and lean forward.

In the months ahead, the Lower School team will confer again and tweak the model for next year’s design. Every room has small differences and every teacher has individual preferences, but the general look and operational design will be the same.

The remodels took about six weeks. With the interior and electrical improvements and furniture expense, the cost was over $30,000 per room. Our hope is to do several makeovers each year as the budget allows. A PFA gift underwrote a good portion of the expense of one classroom. For that gift, both students and faculty are grateful.

What’s on the FWCD Horizon?

FWCD Grows Middle School Expansion Update

Above: Construction began on the Middle School Expansion this August.

The Paul W. Mason Middle School Expansion is well underway! Construction crews started in early August with initial work focused on ground excavation and preparation. The foundation has been poured and the steel frame is expected to be erected before the winter holiday.

The project has a tight schedule influenced by the addition’s proximity to the existing Middle School building. In fact, the contractor divided construction into two phases. The first phase is to build the actual addition, 10 new classrooms, a large student commons and an office complex. This work should be complete by mid-summer. Teachers should have access to their rooms in early July.

FWCD to Celebrate its Golden Anniversary Cynthia rimmer Prince ‘87 and Frasher Hudson Pergande ’81 are very excited to be the co-chairs for FWCD’s 50th Anniversary celebration. The planning for this wonderful milestone began three years ago and will take place over the course of one year. The celebration will begin on Founders’ Day 2013 and end on Founders’ Day 2014.

Cynthia and Frasher have a strong committee composed of faculty, parents and alumni. The Committee has already begun arranging exciting events including the unearthing and displaying of the contents of a time capsule buried 25 years ago, a school-wide celebration on Sept. 9, 2013, recognizing the 50th anniversary of the first day students arrived on campus, and exhibiting artwork on campus produced by FWCD alumni. Homecoming 2013 will involve a Friday night football game as well as a Saturday night party at Bonnell’s for the entire school community, both past and current. The music and theater departments have also offered to participate in our 60’s theme by committing to play 60’s related music, possibly the Beatles, and to perform Hair for the spring musical. The entire school community has caught the “50th bug” and it promises to be a very exciting celebration for all!

The second phase involves building the connection of the new building to the old. Ultimately the north end stairs of the current building will become a two-story pass-through to the new space. Connection construction will begin as soon as school is out in late May. This timing allows all classrooms to remain functional through the academic year, but will keep contractors busy up to the first day of school next year.

Meanwhile, Middle School administration and faculty are busy planning for the new space and new faculty. The expansion will ultimately add eight new teachers to the staff. Divisional and grade-level team organization will dictate who moves where.

Early faculty input led to a tweak to the design. The new classrooms were enlarged adding another 100 square feet. It was also decided to remodel existing classrooms into new dedicated science labs.

The existing rooms had a more favorable space configuration and closer storage and utilities. This remodeling may have to occur next year, but in the end, will optimize the instructional space.

With construction on schedule, the School will soon enter student admission season. We look forward to having smaller class sections and space to accommodate new students in sixth, seventh and eighth grades. So tell your friends and family to apply because if they start here, they can go anywhere.

SAGE Dining Services at FWCD

It’s 6:30 a.m. when the SAGE Dining Team at Fort Worth Country Day arrives and begins their work day. During the next four hours, Food Service Director Brandon Barnes and a team of 10 food service professionals prepare a full array of culinary choices for 1,500 individuals enjoying lunch in the Fischer Dining Pavilion.

Accommodating for second servings, SAGE is currently preparing 2,500 meals each day.

Another Falcon Team

One may think this is not a big deal for the trained professionals of SAGE. Perhaps it is not, as the team makes it seem quite manageable. However, consider this: Based on average numbers garnered from corporate and information websites, several popular fast food chains serve less-tocomparable numbers of customers/meals each day but over a longer period of time and with significantly less preparation time and nutritional value. For instance: •

A leading coffeehouse location serves 486 customers per day with only quick, sugar-laden beverages and prepackaged food items.

•

The well-known taco store rings approximately 940 customers per day with primarily pre-packed and processed options that they assemble and heat for 30 seconds.

•

The golden burger giant handles 1,870 individuals daily through its stores, providing a similar type service.

The baker, ramon Burris, makes the wonderful desserts and any special bread items (such as rolls) in the morning and then changes hats at 10:30 a.m. to become the dishwasher for the lunch rush. He’s solo behind the screen because everyone else is needed in the kitchen, on the service line or refilling food trays for the kiosks in the dining area.

enough, a typical full week of activities on campus can find the SAGE team providing everything from refreshments to box lunches to plated meals for 900 to 1,000 individuals.

Multitasking is the key, and each member of the team has two daily positions. The food service staff spends the morning assisting with meal preparations, plus setting up catered breakfasts/lunches and stocking food kiosks and beverage areas.

Everything for lunch must be ready by 10:30 a.m. That’s when Barnes, who has a culinary degree from Johnson and Wales University, conducts a tasting of every item served to ensure it meets SAGE and FWCD standards. If not, it’s all hands on deck to make adjustments.

Meeting joint standards is quite important to Barnes. He believes the partnership between the FWCD community and SAGE should be seamless and has focused the team on accomplishing their objectives to ensure their success within the FWCD family.

“Communication and interaction are vital,’ Barnes said. “Working in tandem, they are the lifeline of a successful partnership and it is important to me and the dining team that FWCD and SAGE have a very strong relationship.”

Beyond the mid-day meal, the SAGE team supplies a steady stream of breakfast and afternoon snack items via the Falcon Feeder from 7 to10:30 a.m. and 3 to 6 p.m. For evening games in the gym areas, SAGE holds the Feeder open for community members supporting their Falcons.

Did someone say they need 114 box lunches? Ten friendly SAGE members handle that as part of the lunch preparations, and if catering a plated lunch in the Goff Dinign Room is needed as well, their one dedicated catering person is ensuring your set-up as well as helping the kitchen team.

activities promote interface between students and the team plus help students learn to make their own choices and value cooking techniques. A great example is the stir-fry station that has been a huge hit with students and adults alike.

Lower School students choose from a variety of foods each day in the Fischer Dining Pavilion.

Being in the dining area throughout lunch is a central element of Barnes’ focus on communication, which includes interacting with and making himself available to the community. Moving through the room, Barnes is able to observe what items students are most responsive to having. He can visit with everyone to hear about their liked and disliked items. Input is logged to each week’s menu page so they can be addressed at the next planning session.

Representing the SAGE team, Barnes has attended home varsity games and recently spoke with parents and FWCD members at a November Informational Lunch session, SAGE: Setting A Good Example.

Other interactive efforts of the SAGE culinary team include: •

Showcases this year include Eat Locally, Thanksgiving in the Wild West, Culinary Trades, Stews, South African Cuisine, Tea Time, Fair Trade Foods, and Dress It Up: House-Made Salad Dressings.

•

Parties – As a gift to the FWCD community, SAGE is hosting special dessert parties in the Goff Room during lunch for select occasions such as Halloween and the upcoming Winter Break.

Pages can be written touting the benefits of SAGE Dining Services and what they are accomplishing on the FWCD campus.

To be hard working, committed and consistent are the daily goals of the FWCD SAGE team. Their achievements represent teamwork at its finest – a Falcon team.

“Reviewing comments and suggestions from last year was an important step in determining the primary areas where the team needed to increase their attention,” Barnes said. “This allowed us to have a successful start to the year.”

New Catering Chef Alberto Lira brings the long-term experience and efficiency necessary to help the team achieve a reliable product. Formerly with the North Hills Hospital Dietary Department, Chef Lira appreciates the fresh and flavorful items available to students through SAGE Dining Services.

“I am excited to be part of the Fort Worth Country Day community,” Lira said. “I am looking forward to enhancing our product consistency and assisting in providing a good year for the students.”

FWCD Student to Cancer Researcher © Andrew Federman

A head of school. A middle school teacher. A PFA mom. What do they all have in common other than their commitment to FWCD? CANCER.

come up with a new invention that would benefit the world around them. After contemplating long and hard, Shree came up with the idea to turn spinach blue.

According to the American Cancer Society’s 2011 Cancer Facts and Figures, nationwide, there will be approximately 1,596,670 new cancer cases in 2011. In Texas, an estimated 105,000 new cases will occur. Even Fort Worth Country Day has been directly touched by cancer with more than three cancer diagnosis this year alone.

While steps have been made towards a cure, and preventive and early detection education has taken center stage, cancer still has taken too much from too many. However, one FWCD student has accepted the challenge of helping the progression of cancer research and therapy. In just three short years, she has lept from a local University of North Texas science lab to the national stage as the first Global Google Science Fair Winner and introduced the world to FWCD and a scientist in the making.

“I wanted to make spinach more appetizing to little kids who didn’t want to eat their green vegetables,” Bose said.

shree Bose ’12 can often be found in the journalism computer lab operating as co-editor-in-chief of FWCD’s student publication, The Quill. During the winter sports’ season, one can find her competing in a school swim meet because she has been a member of the FWCD swim team since she became a Falcon. However, during the summer, Shree can be found in a UNT science lab exploring the many realms of cancer. And she’s doing this all at the age of 17.

SAGE provides a number of services to the FWCD community including full service catering.

fwcd.org

Shree’s science journey began in the second grade with a program called Invention Convention. Teachers asked their students to fall/winter 2011

So Shree’s parents, dr. Animesh and tina Bose, bought her a spinach plant and she injected it with blue food coloring. But, what initially seemed like a good idea quickly went sour when she forgot about it after storing it in a cabinet.

“I forgot to water [it],” Bose said. “But I carried the dried, withered spinach plant into class and presented it as my first science project.

People laughed at it, but it was my start.”

Many young students would have stopped there, but Shree went a little further. In fourth grade she realized science was really cool while traveling with her older brother, Pinaki. He was selected as one of 40 finalists for the Channel Young Scientist Challenge for two consecutive years.

“My brother is the person who keeps me interested in science,” Shree said. “He explains concepts that I don’t understand and it was also incredible to travel with him. I was able to meet the MythBusters, renowned experts in their fields.”

It was then Shree realized science fairs could take her extremely far if she worked hard and tried her very best ... and that she did. She received her first award for her last Invention Convention entry, a remote controlled trash can, her fifth grade year.

“I thought this invention could help the handicapped who struggled with pushing their bins out to the curb,” Bose said.

“I built a model by taking the top off a remote control car and placing a model trash can on top. People could test the bin around my station.”

Shree continued developing her newfound passion for science throughout her lower school years and into middle school.

It was in middle school that she began entering science fairs instead of Invention Conventions. In eighth grade, she presented an environmental science project that showed her work to create a new environmentally friendly, recycled material that could be used in railroad ties and outdoor furniture.

At the beginning of her freshmen year of high school, she was selected as one of the Society for Science and the Public’s Middle School National Program top 30 finalists for the project. This would be the first time she competed representing FWCD. During the finals competition in Washington, D.C., she was selected as the student-elected speaker and gave a speech at the final awards ceremony.

“This was a huge implication for cancer therapy and was really exciting for me,” Shree said.

It was time to go back to the science fairs. She first entered the Fort Worth Regional Science Fair where she won a best of fair award; then the ExxonMobil Texas State Fair where she won second in her category; and then to the Intel International Fair in Los Angeles where she won a $60,000 scholarship for the Florida Institute of Technology. While each fair proved to be a greater success, Shree set her eyes on something bigger - the inaugural Global Google Science Fair.

Shree prepared her entry by creating a website that included her research and sent it off for judging. While she was in Los Angeles, she was notified that she was one of 60 semifinalists, and by the end of the school year, she had advanced to being one of 15 finalists in the world.

“In June, Google flew me to Mountainview, Calif. to their headquarters to present at the final competition,” Shree said. “I presented in front of a panel of 12 world acclaimed judges. That night I was awarded the grand prize.”

And a grand prize it was. She received a $50,000 scholarship, a trip to the Galápagos Islands with a National Geographic explorer, an internship at CERN, European Organization for Nuclear Research and two extremely cool LEGO® trophies.

Since then, Shree has gone far beyond local news coverage as a Texan with Character on CBS/TXA 11. She’s been featured in the New York Times, on ABC’s World News and CNN. She has been a panel guest at the Google Zeitgeist Conference with Chelsea Clinton and met President Barack Obama as a guest of the White House. In November, she was honored at the 21st annual Glamour Magazine’s Women of the Year Awards and closer to home was awarded Greater Dallas Indo American Commerce Chamber’s Young Achievement Award and met the Indian Minister of Commerce.

“I’ve been privileged to be able to represent FWCD at such a high level,” Shree said. “Much of my success is credited to my teachers, peers, family and community. It was at FWCD that I formed my fundamental knowledge about biology in Ms. Hamilton’s class; it was during my time at FWCD that I became inspired to pursue my interest; and it has been FWCD that has supported me through the best time of my life thus far. It really has been FWCD that has given me the tools to go anywhere.”

Unfortunately, at the end of her freshman year, Shree’s grandfather passed away from cancer. It was then that Shree’s science passion had a specific target – cancer. She began emailing professors at local institutions in hopes of finding one that would work with her on cancer research.

“I endured many ‘no’s’ while I searched for someone to take interest in my endeavors,” Shree said. “However I was determined to begin cancer research so I kept asking until I received a ‘yes’ from Dr. Alakananda Basu at the University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth. She now serves as my mentor.”

For three consecutive summers, Shree worked with Dr. Basu in the UNT science labs on different projects that included breast and ovarian cancer research. And then the unthinkable happened. © Official White House Photo by Pete Souza

“We were working with a protein called AMP kinase (AMPK), which is a major energy protein in the cell,” Shree said. “Through various tests, we found that this protein actually might play a role in ovarian cancer cells becoming resistant to the chemotherapy drug cisplatin.”

When patients are first diagnosed with ovarian cancer, they are given cisplatin; however, they often become resistant to this drug.

Shree and Dr. Basu discovered that AMPK might cause that resistance, and if they stopped the action of the protein in resistant patients, they could treat with cisplatin again.

When you walk into the family room of the Alexander home, you are greeted by years of memories showcased over a plaque that reads “Family Matters.” For the Alexanders, it really does. With a wall of photos featuring Laura Bonnell ’88 and Jeff Alexander, their children Ben ’20 and Kate ’22, debby and Bill Arnold ’86, and their children taylor ’11, robert ’14 and Allie ’18, it’s clear Carol and Denny have found tremendous passion in being parents and grandparents.

So it’s no surprise that they would gladly take on the role of Grandparent Chairs for the FWCD Fund this year and they are delighted to do it. In fact, they are happy doing anything that supports their grandchildren. From carpool to attending Kindergarten Rodeos, Carol and Denny are at the School as often as possible.

“We love the warmth and community at Country Day” “In addition to the obvious learning advantages it gives students, independent schools also provide a sense of community among the families, encourage involvement from parents and promote returning generations of students. FWCD’s focus on fostering families is a terrific example. That family feeling is as important for the students as their academic preparation.”

What brought them into the Falcon fold? Family. FWCD alumnus Bill Arnold married their daughter Debby. After fulfilling his term in the Marine Corp, Bill decided to go into teaching. At the time, his mother was a FWCD Middle School English teacher. He applied and earned a teaching position here as well. A few short years later, Taylor started Kindergarten and Carol and Denny became Falcons along with their grandson.

“We knew about FWCD for a long time,” Carol said. “But it wasn’t until Bill began working at the School that we started to become involved. Once our grandchildren began attending, there was no question that we had to be supportive.

FALCONER

The Alexanders appreciate the many learning opportunities in the School’s program. All are related through experiences their grandchildren have had. Carol is very impressed with the Kindergarten Rodeo program. The project brings children out of their shell at such an early age, introduces them to being in front of crowds and promotes their active participation in teamwork. The Alexanders even build on that at home.

“Being there is the biggest role of grandparents in the Fort Worth Country Day community,” both agree. “It’s important to participate and be supportive, and we are gung-ho Falcons!”

The couple is associated with two college preparatory school communities. Their children, Debby and Jeff, are alumni of Trinity Valley School where Carol and Denny were heavily involved as parents. Also, as a former leader in the National Association of Independent Schools, Denny is a strong advocate for independent education.

“If you can’t feel passion for it, don’t do it.”

Words Carol and denny Alexander have applied to their lives for years. This motto helped the Alexanders choose service organizations to support and without a doubt helped them decide the right time to refocus their time to the thing they are most passionate about - family.

“We love the warmth and community at Country Day,” Carol said.

“From the start, we felt welcome for events, classes, performances and games. We have an especially wonderful memory of when Bill was deployed to Iraq. The Care Committee was there throughout the year for Debby. Students even came to the house and put up Christmas lights for her. It was a very meaningful gift to a family that needed that support.”

Each holiday season, Carol and Denny encourage the grandkids to hold their own performances for an audience of four parents who have no idea what the children are going to do. Grandma and Pops decide a theme and the kids build a performance around it.

“We’ve highlighted Elvis and the Beatles,” Denny said. “The kids often feature something they’re involved in at school. One year Taylor participated in band and played the saxophone. It’s a lot of fun for all us as a family, and now the kids even call us to get the planning started so they really enjoy it.”

On a more serious note, the Alexanders value how the students are taught to study and prioritize at FWCD. Kids are motivated to excel, but they can do so at their own pace. Their experiences are well rounded. The students don’t have to be inclined toward sports or the arts but it’s available and the kids at least try it. When asked what they would promote to others as assets of being at FWCD, Carol and Denny agree on the array of opportunities offered.

Because community involvement has been such an important aspect of the Alexander’s life, they are thrilled that FWCD has such a strong commitment to community service incorporated in its learning program.

“I asked Kate how she became a council member, and she told how she signed up to participate and the teacher drew her name to be a member. I couldn’t help thinking about what a nice, healthy way it was to introduce the children to the process of leadership and public service.”

“Giving back is important and community involvement expands a person’s experiences,” Carol said. “It takes a lot of energy and that’s why young people need to begin early.

With students, it builds their awareness for the world around them and teaches them about commitment. Now it’s our turn to settle back and watch what these younger generations accomplish.”

Service has been a longterm focus in the Alexander household. They believe strongly in giving back to the community and taking on only what they are passionately interested in.

This is especially true with board involvement.

“Board participation is a big commitment,” Denny said.

“You need to be ready to give time to it. That means meetings, phone calls, social events … the whole package. And make sure it’s something you want to do because it’s time away from your family, and that’s a big expense.”

With an active couple like the Alexanders, ‘settling back’ is an understatement. They work hard to be involved with their grandchildren.

They devote special one-on-one times with each child as well as attend sporting events and performances at the School.

Denny and Carol both know the rigors of board membership.

Denny served on the board of Texas Christian University for 30 years and is currently a Trustee Emeritus. He’s chaired the board of their church, University Christian, where he and Carol were married 45 years ago. Denny is former Chairman of the Board of the Fort Worth Chamber and served in Chair positions on the boards of the W. I. Cook Foundation and the Cook Children’s Medical Center.

Then there are his corporate affiliations. He began his corporate leadership role with Overton Bank & Trust and continues as a director on the board of Cullen/Frost Bankers. He has also served as a board member of TNP Enterprises (formerly Texas-New Mexico Power).

Carol’s commitments are numerous as well. She has been very involved in the Junior League of Fort Worth; served as President of the Jewel Charity Ball; and chaired the boards of the Parenting

Denny, a scratch golfer, has also reignited his love for playing golf and is a member of the U.S. Golf Associations’ Senior Amateur circuit. When asked about awards and his consistent qualifying record, he modestly responded, “It’s about the journey, not the destination.”

Being parents and grandparents is still their first priority. Their boardroom today is centered on their home which is filled with fun messages like, ‘Grandpa, what did you do before you had us to play with?’ and Carol’s favorite, ‘Grandma’s the name; spoiling’s the game.’

While their involvement has shifted, their focus has not. It’s always been family first. The cozy structure of FWCD helps further that commitment. The Alexanders are encouraged to participate in the community and the School ensures they can be part of their grandchildren’s many accomplishments. They are proud to be FWCD Fund Grandparent Chairs and help foster the spirit that at FWCD, family matters.

I want to help.

Powerful words. Breakthrough hears that phrase often and the program relies on that passion and commitment. It’s easy to find in the wonderful Fort Worth Country Day host community, where service is a campus-wide philosophy and Breakthrough is a key outreach.

If only that were enough.

“FWCD does a wonderful job of introducing children to a wide variety of learning opportunities,” Carol said. “There are many important experiences that the School incorporates for the students at an early age. Just recently, Kate was having dinner with us and told us she was having her first ever student council meeting the next morning. How great is it for them to be introduced to leadership at such an early age?

SuPPORTiNG BREAKTHROuGH: Donor Passions and Learning Aspects unite

Fulfilling the program’s funding needs takes a much broader base of support and each year, 80 percent of the program’s expenses are provided through donations from individuals, foundations and corporations. In seeking this support, Breakthrough has found there are many who believe in the program’s primary goal of preparing our city’s underserved youth to achieve college goals. As a result, the program is embraced by its host school and supported by its region.

“The Ryan Foundation has a strong commitment to education,” Lee mcConnell of the Ryan Foundation said. “We are thrilled to support Breakthrough Fort Worth because of the program’s focus on helping eager and talented students from under-served areas of Fort Worth excel in the classroom and in their personal character development.

Breakthrough has consistently demonstrated that it will motivate its students to achieve their potential and encourage them to become future educators and leaders in our community.”

Some want to ensure the program is available and give generally for that purpose. Others focus on specific benefits that result from the program, which are reflective of Breakthrough’s educational elements. Here are topics where donor passions and learning aspects come together:

Building character

Advancing academic knowledge and college preparation Helping underserved students advance academically and closing the achievement gap is at the core of many partner commitments to Breakthrough. Such is the case for long-time partner, the C. B. Baird, Jr. Foundation.

“For underserved youth with the hopes and potential for college, Breakthrough provides them the academic and personal support necessary to achieve their dreams,” dr. Craig Baird said. “Ensuring that resource for them is a priority.”

The ryan Foundation is also pleased with Breakthrough’s focus on student empowerment and preparation.

Fall/Winter 2011

The rees-Jones Foundation values programs that provide character development for youth. Many elements of the Breakthrough program foster the growth of character-driven social and leadership skills in its students. First, students agree contractually to fulfill all classes and activities for six years and to follow the program’s core values of Leadership, Courage, Respect, Accountability, Team Work, Passion for Learning and Excellence. They abide by the Breakthrough Creed to be young people who choose to make a difference, striving towards academic success and good character. Students participate in components such as All-School Meetings, Study Buddies, clubs, and social events that promote interaction, public speaking, team work, time management and positive life choices.

Breakthrough Executive Director Joe Breedlove applauds the focus of the Foundation and appreciates its dedication to the students.

“Leadership partners like The Rees-Jones Foundation make it possible for Breakthrough to focus on whole-child education, providing a program that both enriches the students academically and promotes their growth in ethics and integrity,” Breedlove said.

teaching experience they gain in the program urges many toward vocations in professional education.

Junior League volunteer Tamara Albury helps students with their Christmas in Cowtown art project.

Student teacher melanie Harrell reflects on how moving the Breakthrough teaching experience was for her. “Prior to my experience as a Breakthrough teacher, I intended full-heartedly to go into law after graduation, and had that plan for a number of years,” Harrell said. “After two summers teaching, I can fully say that the program has changed the trajectory of my entire life. I am now committed to a career in education and in seeking to improve the education system for the better.”

“Breakthrough reinforced the fact that I chose the correct career path,” fellow teacher Catie Creed said. “The passion these students have for learning is refreshing.

This is something I can definitely see myself doing for the rest of my life. I think serving youth is the most valuable thing I can do with my time and I have the utmost respect for the dedication people pour into programs like Breakthrough.”

Summer 2011 provided Breakthrough students a very unique educational project as the Junior League of Fort Worth, inc. came on the FWCD campus and hosted Junior League Week at Breakthrough. During this fun week of learning, held July 11-14, students attended a special presentation and discussion about the importance of community service. The students then “donated” time painting wood squares for an art display for the League’s annual Christmas in Cowtown holiday gift market.

students, Fancy Meal allows students to take their first steps down the path of adult social interaction. In a business luncheon setting, students meet community and business leaders, talk with them about their experiences in the program, greet and escort guests, plus serve as table hosts during the event. The luncheon has a dual benefit by serving as an interactive fundraiser for the program. More than 200 guests attend, and their donations support the summer classes plus provide seats for the students to participate in the luncheon.

“Junior League Week at Breakthrough was a great collaboration with community volunteers from the Junior League of Fort Worth setting an example for and sharing insights and experiences with the future community volunteers and leaders from Breakthrough,” FWCD parent and JLFW Project Team Leader elsa Chapman said. “The project was important because Breakthrough gives bright, driven students a strong foundation from which to achieve their potential of college and professional success and service is part of that foundation.”

Fancy Meal is something the students look forward to throughout their seventh grade year. They prepare for it beforehand by participating in a simulated luncheon as well as the Breakthrough Boutique, a mock store presented and provided by FWCD Upper School students. Boutique team leader madison mcdade ’13 has been very pleased to support the Breakthrough students with this activity.

Social and leadership development There are many elements in Breakthrough that promote social and leadership development. The student teams ensure young people learn how to work together, manage a team setting, and take on leadership roles within their group. Clubs is another component that brings together students with similar interests and promotes a unified focus, interaction and a variety of activities that require leadership rotation.

One of the program’s finest examples is its annual Fancy Meal luncheon. An important “rite of passage” for the eighth grade

“I love seeing the kids’ faces light up when they find clothes that they love,” McDade said. “Seeing their choices and reactions gives me memories I will never forget.”

Teacher development Okay, class, let’s review what we’ve learned today. Great teachers are the lifeline of a good education program, and donors like the sid W. richardson Foundation enthusiastically support programs that cultivate quality instructors. With Breakthrough, they double their impact. As the program prepares underserved youth for higher education, its students-teaching-students format ensures a high quality training program for young high school and college students who are deciding their college and career paths.

The dedication that Creed speaks of translates to support, and as donors fulfill their charitable passions via Breakthrough, ‘I want to help’ becomes ‘I can help.’

The Breakthrough classes, activities and guidance they provide empower underserved youth with a preparedness they need to succeed. Students grow from thinking about high school graduation to planning for a college education and learning how to attain it. When Breakthrough and donor passions unite, powerful words become inspirational results.

FWCD Mobile Podium info on the Go Over the summer the FWCD iPhone app was discontinued and replaced with a new mobile version of the FWCD website. While the original FWCD app was a useful tool, users were limited to accessing information only on the iPhone and then only after first downloading an app to view the data. A simple internet search for “FWCD” or “Fort Worth Country Day” on a Webenabled mobile device will automatically redirect users to the mobile site. IPhone users will be prompted with an instruction bubble detailing how to add a site icon to their home screen.

The new mobile site provides fast, easy access to both public and secured community information on a cross platform basis. Built with jQuery and HTML5 technology, the cross-platform option makes information available to iPhone, Android and Blackberry users.

Along with the new access options, users now have many new features to choose from.

The old iPhone app was limited to basic news, directory and athletics information but the cross-platform mobile site features include: • FWCD News • Athletics - calendar and scores both available • Calendar -daily campus events listed on the public side for quick reference • Assignments - students and parents can review assignments by Due or Assigned dates • Schedules - parents, students and faculty can view their schedules and access mobile versions of their class pages including the photos, assignments, downloads and links categories • Directory - allows for single and dual word searches • My Contacts – personalized list of most frequently used contacts. Can be dually managed from mobile device and desktop version.

• My Groups - access community group information • My Child’s Groups - access to mobile versions of your child’s academic, athletic and community groups • Media Gallery - view photos and videos • FWCD Facebook and Twitter links - review the latest FWCD social media postings • Ress Net - reserve rooms and event space In addition to these features, faculty members now also have the option of submitting their daily attendance via the mobile site as well as the desktop version.

The overall goal for the new mobile site is to provide the same interaction and task options that are available on the desktop version. Stay tuned for more updates!

The guests and recipients enjoyed the change of venue because it seemed appropriate to host an event honoring alumni at the school where they spent so much of their time.

Many of the guests, and some of the recipients, had not been on campus in several years, and they appreciated the opportunity to see the new facilities and visit with former classmates and colleagues.

Dear FWCD Family, So much happens in a year, and what an unforgettable time our 2010-2011 year was!

Our varsity team became SPC Division II Football Champions and our softball team won the Division I championship. Go Falcons! The Lou and Nick Martin Campus Center became a reality as the doors opened and we successfully fulfilled the Learning. Leading.

Legacy. A Campaign for FWCDS. World-renowned primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall met with and spoke to a collaborative audience of FWCD and TCU students. Rounding out the year in fun, the highly anticipated Crawfish in Cowtown was the PFA event to beat.

Along with these celebrated highlights, quieter victories were going on behind the scenes.

We accepted the challenge of expanding the Paul W. Mason Middle School. Parent participation in the annual FWCD Fund reached an all-time high of 77 percent. Total annual giving to the School was $1.2 million. The financial report reflects another strong year for enrollment, a balanced budget and continuing progress in our effort to run as efficiently as possible. The FWCD endowment portfolio advanced 22 percent for the year ended June 30, 2011, helping to subsidize our operations and ensuring funding for future generations of students as well.

Impressive accomplishments require strong leaders and I gratefully join our family of students, alumni, faculty and staff in recognizing Parent Faculty Association president Janet Bishop, Falcon Club presidents Kimberly and Randy Ferguson, FWCD Fund chairs Pepper and Scotty MacLean, Alumni Council president Liz Stapp Fleischer ’84, and Supporting Cast president Bill Behr. Your work in the 2010-2011 school year was second to none, and we thank you for your dedication and many hours of service to make FWCD the very best school community for our students and their families. It’s a tremendous gift!

I am proud to have been both a parent and Board president during such an outstanding time in the School’s history. Our many achievements reflect wonderfully on all of us in the FWCD family as we supported our students by attending, giving and cheering our way through the year. I’m certain our new Board President, Russell Laughlin, will appreciate FWCD’s spirit and growth as much as I have and be proud to call himself the leader of our great Falcon community.

Congratulations to all on a terrific year!

BOARD

Spotlight

Marshall Boyd ’85 An FWCD graduate, Marshall Boyd ’85 understands and appreciates the vision of the School. As parents, he and his wife, Kim, take a high interest in the place where his children, Claudia ’14 and Charlie ’17 spend the majority of their time. As an FWCD trustee, he finds it an honor to give back to the institution that he calls home.

“There is no easier cause to get behind than the education of your children,” Marshall said. “They spend more time at school and the associated activities than they do at home. So the inspiration is easy. As a former student of FWCD, I care deeply for the institution as well. To be asked to serve has been an honor.”

Away from the FWCD boardroom, Marshall is the founder and managing partner of Williams Trew Real Estate Services and president of Southwest Bank, a Fort Worth commercial bank. He serves not only on the Trustee Board of FWCD, but also the Board of Directors for the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History. He is a member of First Presbyterian Church and offers support through his businesses to the Union Gospel Mission, the Presbyterian Night Shelter, Mayfest and Habitat for Humanity.

When asked how the community has changed while on the Board, Marshall responded, “The biggest evolution I have seen has not been just in my time on the Board, but in the time from when I was a student until now. The kids are so dedicated, and the curriculum is so much more challenging. FWCD and the faculty have done an excellent job in not just producing academically prepared students, but they are really great people as well. From the honor code to the core values, and commitment to community service, the students of FWCD are built to lead.”

Shannon Young Ray ’80 Shannon Young Ray ’80 is no stranger to the FWCD Board of Trustees as she is serving her third term. An FWCD alumna, she knows the benefits of sacrifice and hard work. She and her husband, Breck, are committed to helping the advancement of the institution that not only gave a great foundation to her, but that has created that same foundation for their children, Breck ’06, Peter ’10, Carson ’13, Megan ’13 and Taylor ’13.

Shannon has served in several positions as a Trustee including Board vice president and Trustee and Leadership Committee chair. She is currently the Executive Committee secretary and on the Building and Grounds Committee and the Sustainability and Real Estate Subcommittees.

“I have enjoyed my tenure on the FWCD board because it has allowed me to play an active part in my children’s school life,” Shannon said. “As a mom working outside of the home, it is difficult for me to do some of the more traditional volunteer activities at school. However, I am able to give back to the school community through my board service, utilizing my organizational and business skills.”

Shannon is President and Treasurer of Marshall R. Young Oil Co. She is active in the Fort Worth community and volunteers with organizations including Gill Children’s Services, the Van Cliburn Foundation and Jewel Charity.

When asked what has changed about the School during her tenure on the Board, Shannon responded, “The overall enthusiasm and spirit of the school has increased dramatically. Our academic, athletic, and art programming is exceptional and I have watched the advancement of those programs over the past several years. As there is always room for improvement and growth, FWCD continues to strive to be the best in our community. And our current enrollment and admission inquiries prove that we are!”
