Lower school girls participate in a daily guided reading with their teacher. The girls read in small groups while the teacher checks for fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary understanding. Our teachers impart reading strategies and skills, and the girls also learn from one another. A love of reading starts at the earliest ages at Hutchison and grows throughout their years with us.

As we continue to provide an unparalleled educational experience for all of our girls, we’re also cognizant that we need to reach beyond our boundaries to find the deserving girls who may not see Hutchison as a possibility.

As you’ll read in our feature story, financial assistance has been a part of the Hutchison ethos for decades. These stories describe how girls and families were helped by financial assistance and their successes after graduating.

Seniors Named National Merit Semifinalists Anne Grinder, Sally Crow, and Charlotte Merchant have been named

National Merit Semifinalists based on their junior year PSAT scores.

They will now advance to compete for finalist status and some 7,500 National Merit Scholarships that will be offered this spring. Since its founding in 1955, the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) has recognized over three million students and provided approximately 423,000 scholarships worth more than $1.7 billion. The honors awarded

by NMSC to exceptionally able students are viewed as definitive marks of academic excellence.

Anne Grinder, Sally Crow, and Charlotte Merchant

Science Research Fellow Earns Spot in Elite International Program This past summer, Charlotte Merchant ’19 attended the Quantum Cryptography School for Young Students (QCSYS) at the University of Waterloo in Canada. This highly competitive program accepts only 40 students from around the world each year. “I wanted to see the research at the forefront of physics, computer science, and math,” Merchant said about why she applied.

Merchant has immersed herself in theoretical computer science for several years, tackling complex computer concepts that most students don’t encounter until their junior or senior years of college. “I wanted to find a topic that intersected with my interests in math and computer science, and that’s where theoretical computer science comes in.”

QCSYS featured nine-hour days of lectures, practice exercises, experiments, and activities at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC). While at the Institute, she met with several lecturers, including Dr. Raymond Laflamme who worked as one of Stephen Hawking’s PhD students in the 1980s. Merchant’s peers included students from Canada, Pakistan, India, England, Poland, Greece, and the United States.

Professional Development = Strong Classrooms Learning

is a lifelong pursuit.

These teachers practice what they preach.

What if teachers could make math more hands-on for girls, so that they truly understand numbers and shapes, instead of just memorizing formulas?

What if a shy girl could be suddenly emboldened by her classmates’ positive responses to her unique “video book trailer?” What if the practice of adjusting a person’s mindset could be put to use in the classroom to open up new possibilities for students?

These are the signs of professional development making a difference in the classroom.

Just as we ask our girls to think about things in new and different ways, our faculty are constantly pushing themselves to look at the best practices for teaching a particular subject or grade. Many of our teachers attend conferences during the summer to brush up on teaching techniques, while others work with visiting scholars on campus during the school year to learn effective methods for conveying information.

Working together with peers, learning from experts on site, and putting what they’ve learned into practice in the classroom are all aspects of professional development. Funded by the school and by grants from generous donors, professional development amps up the quality of academics throughout the school.

Following are just a few of the stories of how professional development creates a stronger classroom.

vening when necessary to help improve students’ math skills.

Allen thrives on helping teachers make math “hands-on.”

She offers advice on how they can move beyond flat numbers and shapes in a book. Allen supports Hutchison teachers in the use of “manipulatives”—color tiles, centimeter cubes, base ten blocks, even calendars. Manipulatives are objects that girls can manipulate with their hands to help learn a mathematical concept.

“When teaching the Pythagorean theorem, for instance, one effective way to learn it is to use graph paper and plotting points and to cut out squares,” Allen said. “This goes beyond girls memorizing, ‘A squared plus B squared equals C squared’ and makes the Pythagorean theorem more tangible.”

In addition to offering teachers new ways to look at things, when visiting scholars visit Hutchison, they can provide instant feedback on a lesson plan or teaching technique. “I’m in their classrooms. I’m able to say ‘that went really well,’ ‘what if you added this?’ ‘the next time try this,’ ” Allen said. “Oftentimes

STORIES OF SUCCESS How Financial Assistance Played a Role

by Max Maddock

“We have seven children,” said Shannon Herring. “People with seven children don’t usually consider private school. It’s just out of our realm of possibility. It wasn’t really even on our radar.”

Spoiler alert—Herring is the mother of three Hutchison graduates: Cady ’13, Alli ’16, and Lydia ’18.

This is a story about 10 Hutchison alumnae and their mothers and fathers. Each of the families featured here received financial assistance to attend Hutchison. Instead of it being a means to an end, though, it was a means to a beginning.

Financial assistance at Hutchison means two things: first, capable and deserving girls in the Mid-South community are offered the opportunity of a Hutchison education. Second, enabling these girls to attend Hutchison widens horizons for everyone in the Hutchison community.

Hutchison’s financial assistance does not cover full tuition, requiring significant commitment and sacrifice from each family receiving aid. This story is about the successes that followed.

Realizing an Opportunity that Previously Looked Impossible “The ability to send our daughters to Hutchison hasn’t just been good. Hutchison has been pivotal in our family,” Herring stressed. “I say that because it changed our hopes and our expectations for all of our children and what they could accomplish. It opened our eyes to another level of opportunity.”

In 2010, Cady Herring was attending a local public school.

Shannon Herring noticed that Cady wasn’t happy. However, it wasn’t the academics. The school was an A-rated school, and Cady was doing well academically. “She just wasn’t challenged in an intangible way that she was longing for and looking for,” Shannon said.

Cady had a friend at church who attended Hutchison and told her about the school, but the real turning point was when Shannon noticed the behavior of Hutchison girls on her daughter’s club soccer team. “Those girls stood out. They were confident, kind, and cooperative. They easily talked to and interacted well with other people. They spoke to adults with a confidence that 14 | Hutchison

M A K E A N I M PAC T Building an Endowment for Financial Assistance

Hutchison is on a mission to build a $15 million Financial Assistance Endowment. An anonymous donor has issued a once-in-a-lifetime, $5 million challenge gift matching 50 cents for every dollar for any new gift this school year directed to Financial Assistance.

A financial assistance endowment can have a lasting impact on Hutchison and its graduates for many generations to come. Here are just a few examples.

Hutchison has been pivotal in our family … It opened our eyes to another level of opportunity.

However, Walker’s mother felt like Keisha wasn’t being adequately challenged at the public school she attended. So, after finishing ninth grade, she was enrolled at Hutchison. At the time,

Walker attended The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, for both her undergraduate and juris doctorate degrees. For the past 13 years, she has managed her own private practice as a transactional attorney, with a majority of her practice in corporate and entertainment law.

That plan was put at risk in her senior year when her parents had some financial difficulties.

She is hopeful about Hutchison’s endowment for financial assistance and what that will mean for other students. “Your education is the strongest foundation for your career or your child’s career, and if you skimp on that, then it sets a weak foundation.”

Jarvis now has a son named Wyatt and hopes that he can attend a school like Hutchison where he can grow with the school.

“Next thing I know, we were at Hutchison for 15 years.

Because of that, I literally never say never,” Moody said.

Moody has three Hutchison graduates: Jasmine ’10,

Kendra ’12, and Reba ’15. “Their educational success overall, the foundation of their education, I attribute all that to Hutchison and their mother,” Moody said. “Kendra and Jasmine both said to me that they were taking classes their freshman year of college that were similar to classes they took at Hutchison. And the biggest impression for us was when Reba was in pre-K, they were teaching her Spanish. It had such a profound impact on Reba that her major now in college is Spanish.”

A Family With Hutchison History Going to Hutchison was natural for Ragan Crawford Magness ’88. Her mother went to Hutchison and her grandmother did as well. When Magness heard about the Hutchison Financial Assistance Challenge, she recalled how much financial assistance had meant to her family during her time at Hutchison.

Much like Angela Chen Jarvis ’08, during Magness’ junior year, her family needed some help. The administration was able to provide financial assistance, and Magness was able to continue her education at Hutchison just as she always had.

Magness credits her Hutchison education with creating a strong sense of self—“that I could do anything I wanted to do. I had no fear about going out into the world. Also, Hutchison emphasizes a kindness and sense of community, loving other people in a real way. Back then it just came from the head down.

Jack Stanford [former head of school] was so affectionate and kind. He created a very loving environment for school.”

She went on to graduate from Vanderbilt where she studied political science and art history. In addition to her own experience, Magness has two daughters who graduated from Hutchison: Natalie ’16 and Meredith ’18. Natalie is currently a junior at Southern Methodist University studying communications and art history, while Meredith is a “First Year” at the University of Virginia in the architecture program.

The Moody sisters: Kendra ’12, Reba ’15, and Jasmine ’10

Moody admits it wasn’t easy. “Hutchison saw our commitment and our willingness to contribute. My wife and I made a serious financial sacrifice by having three girls there for 15 years, even with the financial assistance. Our girls’ education was a priority for us though. We were not going to be too proud to take help to make sure our girls got that quality education. Without the assistance, I just don’t know that we could have done it. Over the years, tuition increased, but Hutchison’s assistance increased as well.”

As a special assistant for community affairs to Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland, Moody knows how important it is to reach out to the Memphis community and raise up successful, strong women.

“The one challenge I had is that both Jasmine and Kendra

While her girls were still at Hutchison, Magness saw one of the most prized aspects of the school play out. “My girls are two grades apart, and they are very different,” Magness said. “I’ve got one who’s social, athletic, and academic, and the other is very academic and more artistic. It was almost as if they went to two different schools. It was so fun to see how Hutchison embraced both in their strengths and brought those strengths to the surface.”

Magness recently joined Hutchison’s Board of Trustees, and previously, she and her husband, Lon, served as chairs of the Annual Fund. She is intimately aware of the importance of philanthropy for the school. She believes the Financial Assistance Endowment is vital for Hutchison. “I think it’s important to give more girls in Memphis the opportunity to come to Hutchison if they have the will and the desire for that strong education, for the athletics, for the arts,” Magness said. continued on page 20

Together

BETTER

The Class of 1982 Funds Dreams

The Class of 1982 truly demonstrates the meaning of “better together.”

This year, the Class of 2019 chose the phrase Better Together as Hutchison’s school-wide theme. Despite being separated by more than 35 years, both classes know that strong bonds are part of the Hutchison ethos.

It

started as an idea at their 15th class reunion in 1997. The Class of 1982 wanted to give back, to do something different.

In 1999, they launched the Class of 1982 Scholarship. The scholarship provides financial assistance to a deserving girl entering middle school (grades 6–8). To date, the scholarship has provided a portion of tuition for six girls.

This past fall, eight representatives of the class met on the Hutchison campus—Mary Tabor Engel, Beth Harbison Kakales, Jenne Prest Williams, Helen France Wade, Stephanie Fuss Hayes, Elizabeth Nickey Hvasta, Susan Springfield, and Becca Garner Howell. They talked with Dr. Kristen Ring, head of school, about the scholarship.

“Instead of just giving money or another type of gift, we wanted to give a girl the opportunity to have what we had,” said Helen France Wade. “Hutchison was so great to us.”

One of the things they hope to pass on is the confidence and determination instilled at Hutchison. “When you develop the skill and passion for leadership Top: Elizabeth Nickey Hvasta and Beth in a young girl,” Susan Harbison Kakales; above: Becca Garner Springfield said, “it can Howell and Jenne Prest Williams change the trajectory of her life. She learns early on not to impose limits on herself.

Because of my experiences at Hutchison, I’ve never shied away from taking on leadership positions because of my gender. That has been a real gift.”

Mary Tabor Engel added: “We want to find and nurture girls who will not only thrive at Hutchison but who can also lead and make meaningful contributions in their families, communities, workplaces, and beyond.”

Dr. Ring talked about the initiative to increase the school’s fiL to R, front row: Susan Springfield, Anne Anthony Jordan, nancial assistance endowment. “The best private schools have roPauline Merrill Foster, Mary Merrill King, Jennifer Alexander Delp, JoAnne White Ray; back row: Valerie Ryan Meitzler, bust financial assistance programs because they want to reach more Nancy Weaver, Beth Harbison Kakales, Anna Morrow deserving students, generate additional revenue, and stabilize tuition. Thornton, Mary Tabor Engel, Susan Daggett Bennet, Wendy Lumm, Janie Gentry Bates, Deirdre Crane Scharffs We’re thankful that the Class of 1982 has put so much passion and energy into funding their scholarship.”

In 2007, Class of 1982 alumna Kirby Dobbs Floyd wrote: “One thing I like so much about our Scholarship is that it invests in a person. How often in life do we get to do that and to see the course of a person’s life altered directly by something we have given?”

“I got my love of learning and being creative from Hutchison,” Miller added. “There were options shown to me that I’m really grateful for, especially the arts programs. I did musical theatre from fourth grade to senior year. My teachers always encouraged me to be creative and go after anything I wanted to, especially in my writing classes. As I turned out to be a writer, I really credit Hutchison for those skills, specifically.”

When she was in upper school, she was the resident videographer, editing and filming the student council videos and completing a certificate of arts. “In order to get into the University of California (USC), I had to make a five-minute short film, and I shot it at Hutchison and cast all of my friends in it.”

Fast forward to this year, when Miller graduated from USC. Since, she has worked for several film and television companies in Los Angeles. When she’s not working, she’s focusing on screenwriting and is currently working on a screenplay set in Ragan Crawford Magness ’88 with daughters Natalie Magness ’16 and Meredith Magness ’18

“A child’s life can be enhanced by exposure to everything that Hutchison offers. To be able to give that opportunity to more girls would be incredible.”

Finding Her Passion at Hutchison Even though history is not her favorite subject, Amanda

Layne Miller ’14 discovered her life’s passion at Hutchison in history class in the sixth grade. She had a research assignment and was required to present it using Windows Movie Maker. “I learned how to use it for the first time and loved it. I started documenting my life with my camera and editing my own videos together, and it turned out that I loved film and loved making it.”

Miller and her sister, Amber Miller ’16, both graduated from Hutchison. Miller said she remembered touring the school for senior kindergarten with her mother, Veronica Cherry, who was starting to work at Hutchison as a Spanish teacher. “We all three came to Hutchison at the same time. Sending two kids to private school is a lot harder than just one, and so the financial assistance helped out a lot,” Amanda said in retrospect.

“

A child’s life can be enhanced by exposure to everything that Hutchison offers. To be able to give that opportunity to more girls would be incredible.

“Hutchison teaches you how to be a great writer,” Miller said.

“Christina Wellford-Scott ’69 was influential in teaching me how to think about literature, theatre, writing, and life in general.

She was really inspirational to me while I was there.”

Knowing what Hutchison did for her, she recognizes how important it is to build the Financial Assistance Endowment.

“Attending Hutchison was a tremendous gift. I’m excited that the school is looking to give more girls an opportunity to go for it and prove themselves.”

P L A N N E D G I V I N G | LU C Y A N D H OWA R D LOV E L E S S

Lucy Moore Loveless and Howard William Loveless

Remembering a Connection to Hutchison

L

ucy and Howard Loveless loved seeing their granddaughters perform at Hutchison, whether it was in a theatrical performance, or more often in a Destination Imagination (DI) competition. When the couple left a planned gift to Hutchison without a specific recommendation for how it should be used, their son, Bill, and daughter-in-law, Mary Miles Loveless ’72, had the idea that it would be fitting that the gift go toward the DI program.

“DI was one of their fondest connections to Hutchison,” Mary said. “Bill’s parents loved coming to watch their granddaughters in DI tournaments, and they even went to the Global competition in Knoxville one year to watch them perform.”

If you’ve never heard of DI before, you’re missing out. It’s a project-based competition where students use the creative process to turn ideas into reality. Along the way, they practice and polish skills such as creative and critical thinking, team building, problem solving, risk taking, project management, perseverance, and self-confidence. These are skills that come in handy in their academic pursuits, careers, and their lives.

According to Loveless, DI was originally created as a way to “celebrate and reward kids who enjoyed intellectual and creative problem-solving pursuits and show them that they are just as valued as athletes.” Like athletic events, students learn how to win and lose, and that the process of creating and implementing their ideas is just as important as the outcome.

Loveless said that each of her daughters­—Kate Loveless ’10, Lucy Loveless ’06, and Mary Loveless ’03—are very different

from each other, but the one thing they had in common was their love for DI; they each got something different out of competing. Kate flourished in the creative aspects of DI and has always tried to do things differently, a key aspect of DI competitions. For Mary, it fed her theatrical love and her interest in creating scenery. Lucy thrived in the competition aspect of the program. Loveless, who coached each of her daughters throughout the years, said all of their teams won DI State competitions multiple times and did well at DI Global Finals, too.

The planned gift that Bill’s parents left for Hutchison is being put toward improvements in the DI space at Hutchison.

Because DI requires many different props and other elements, the space is being outfitted with new tables, storage units, and a sink, among other items. The gift will be used widely because Hutchison has a robust DI program and often hosts students from many other schools. Beyond the creative process that DI encourages, the program is a wonderful way to develop relationships with children from across the Mid-South community.

Howard and Lucy were both committed to a lifetime love of learning, and Mary and Bill Loveless knew they wanted their gift to Hutchison to have special meaning for their granddaughters. Hutchison was able to thank them for their planned gift during their lifetimes, and now will use that donation toward a program that will inspire creativity for years to come. That’s something that certainly would bring a smile to Lucy and Howard.

SOUTH presented the first ever Strong GIRL Fest in October. Girls and their families from around the MidSouth were invited to take part in interactive activities across the Hutchison campus that celebrated and empowered girls of all ages. Girls got the opportunity to try their hand at robotics and engineering clinics, worm dissections, TV newscasting, art projects, and expressing their dreams as madam president. There were soccer, lacrosse, basketball, and volleyball clinics, chances to perform in the dance studio and theater, urban farm activities, and arts and crafts projects. The festival was rounded out with food, music, face-painting, and fun.

We were proud to host all the STRONG girls that we know make up our great Memphis community!
