HEADMASTERNOTES

Mission, Tradition and Opportunity Dear Landon Community,

I

am pleased to write this

introductory letter for the

fall 2015 edition of Landon

Magazine. It is an honor and

privilege to now serve as the

headmaster of Landon, and I am

thrilled to be here.

As I have met Landon community

members over the past months, I have been

sure is that I have joined a community with not only a well-defined educational philosophy and rich history, but also an exciting future marked by tremendous opportunity and positive energy.

I look forward to sharing that future with you. Together we will work

to define what it can and should be to ensure that the school remains a living, vibrant, and dynamic entity — one that is mission-centered,

rooted in its history, and embracing of the opportunities and changes

that will come its way. Together we will work to ensure that we help the Landon boys of today and tomorrow grow into men who make a difference in the world by living honorable lives of purpose.

So it is with enthusiastic energy that I say to you for this first time,

struck by how powerfully they speak about their sense of pride in and

staff to trustees, it is clear that so many feel a deep sense of connection to

Sincerely,

devotion to the place. From students to parents to alumni to faculty to and love for Landon.

And this is for good reason. For ours is a mission that is at once

relevant and resonant, calling on us to develop productive, accomplished, responsible, and caring men whose identities and actions will be marked by a commitment to character, honor, and excellence.

We do this by offering a robust and lively program that is focused on

the holistic well-being of our boys and on readying them for both the

next academic setting and life beyond school. At Landon, the faculty and staff regard the students as unique, multidimensional individuals

and relate to them as such through our teacher-coach-mentor approach, where every moment is seen as an opportunity for growth. At Landon we strive to focus on the things that really matter through a program

that offers excellence in academics and extracurricular activities, as well

as purposeful attention to the development of crucial personal attributes

such as character, respect, honesty, civility, perseverance, honor, teamwork, and fair play. We are so fortunate to be able to do all of this in a setting

that is both beautiful and expansive and with a community that is dedicated, connected, and engaged.

As I mentioned to you in my letter earlier this summer, I will spend

the year ahead listening and learning about Landon — about its his-

tory and its people, its culture and its ways of being, its strengths and its weaknesses, its potential and its challenges. I will spend this year

immersing myself in the life of the school in order to understand and

fully appreciate Landon as a place, as a school, as a community, and as a defining entity in the lives of so many.

As I begin this first year as headmaster, one thing I already know for

Landon Celebrates David Armstrong’s Legacy

A

s David M. Armstrong’s 11-year tenure as headmaster came to a close this spring, the community honored him with a series of dedications and celebrations. The baseball field,

senior lounge porch and Bear Games trophy now bear the Armstrong name, and the headmaster’s portrait hangs beside those of his four predecessors in Lindner Dining Hall.

During a pre-baseball game ceremony May 7, members of the

Landon community dedicated David A. Armstrong Field with a new

scoreboard sign, and Armstrong — a diehard baseball fan — threw out the ceremonial first pitch.

The porch of the senior lounge, which Armstrong moved next to his

Andrews House office shortly after he arrived at Landon, also carries his name. The Class of 2015 dedicated “Armstrong Overlook” to the former headmaster June 4.

surprised Armstrong by naming the Bear Games trophy in his honor.

A clearly touched Armstrong thanked the LFC, calling the all-school

competition days (which began during his tenure) “some of his favorite on the Landon calendar because I get to see Bears from all divisions work and play together.”

At a reception for former trustees and major donors May 11, former

And he expanded Landon’s performing arts program by building

Trustees honored Coates for these contributions by naming the PAC’s performance venue the Malcolm Coates Auditorium.

Assistant for External Affairs Lowell Davis, who served as a teacher and director of athletics under Coates. “He truly was a beloved figure in the community.”

FACULTY/STAFF NEWS

Landon... In Your Words Last fall, we launched the Bear Blog on our website to give teacher-coachmentors, students, alumni and parents the opportunity to share their perspectives on Landon. Below are excerpts from two spring posts. To read the full posts, as well as many more from members of the community, please visit landon.net/bearblog.

THE COMMUNITY DOESN’T END WHEN YOU GRADUATE William Leighton-Armah ’09, who came to Landon his junior year and played varsity football and lacrosse, wrote this post. A 2013 graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, he now works in real estate.

Mr. Bordley and the other

coaches — along with teachers including Alfredo Benavides, Mike Derwinski, Matt

Dougherty and Doug Nettles — were great mentors to me and really enriched my time

at the school. I am constantly

reminded of the influence that my teachers had on me, and it

is something I will never forget.

At Landon, the class

schedule pushes students to

be more independent and take responsibility for getting work done on time, which eased

I only spent two years at Landon, but they were wonderful times I will always cherish.

The one thing I noticed immediately was the enormous sense of community. It is special to be a part of a community like that and a valuable asset that I didn’t fully appreciate until after I graduated.

— William Leighton-Armah ’09

my transition to college at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill and

gave me the tools to balance

being in the [undergraduate] business school and being a

varsity athlete on the lacrosse team.

The connection alums have

with each other is very special,

and it is one that I share not only

with my Landon classmates but also with people that came through the school before me. I

cherish Landon’s sense of community and am still an active part of that community... People such as Marty Klingelhofer and George Pappas have been great resources and have really helped me tap into the alumni network. The community doesn’t end when you graduate, and I am very grateful for my experiences as both a student and an alum.

WHAT I WILL MISS MOST ABOUT LANDON Matt Wellington ’15 wrote this post. Matt was a 10-year Bear, the Student Council president, the 2015 Citizenship Award winner, a prefect, a varsity cross-country runner and ice hockey player, and an active community service participant. He is currently a freshman at Davidson College.

Landon has helped me try new things and step

out of my comfort zone. Because of the emphasis on community service, I have gotten involved in

causes including Be Brave and Shave and Operation Smile that have been a really rewarding way for

my classmates and me to give back to the greater community. And I found things like new sports

(thanks to the requirement) and Student Council

(thanks to the encouragement of my teachers) that I

have loved that I might not have tried somewhere else.

Starting in third grade, I remember looking at the

different Student Council presidents addressing us on Opening Day and thinking, ‘There is no way I will

ever do that.’ Then, almost 10 years to the day after that thought first crossed my mind, there I was —

standing in front of the entire school giving a speech.

It is crazy how Landon has helped me grow to that.

That’s due to two main factors: the teachers here at the school and the feeling of brotherhood between the students. The teachers at Landon are really

invested in you, the student. They will always drop

what they are doing to help you, they are always there for you, and they are easy to build relationships with.

The same goes for the kids here. Everyone is always included. While there are social circles, the whole

grade really is one unit. We’re always there for one

another and have one another’s back. They are there

in the bad times to lean on, and they are there in the good times to celebrate. That’s one of the things I

love and will miss most about this place: I consider

everyone to be my friend, and hopefully they feel the same way about me.

his year, Landon enters an exciting new era with Jim Neill as the sixth headmaster in the school’s 86-year

history — and those involved in the search for David Armstrong’s successor are eager for the community

to discover what they already know: The school has a

leader who possesses great fortitude, drive and integrity.

“I think Jim views his role in life as mission-driven in service of others,

and that is an incredibly important part of our character and our DNA at this school,” Board of Trustees Chair Joe Kenary ’82, P ’18 ’20 ’23, said. “Ex-

cellence at the expense of character is a hollow victory. We want to do things

really well, and we want to do them the right way — and Jim totally buys in.”

A sixth-generation Washingtonian, Neill served as head of National

Presbyterian School (NPS) for nine years, was a teacher-coach-mentor at schools that include St. Albans and Georgetown Visitation, and received

his undergraduate degree from Harvard University and a master’s in business administration from Northwestern University.

While Neill’s credentials are impressive on paper, the members of the

Headmaster Search Committee say it was Jim’s thoughtful personality, his commitment to ethics, and his collaborative approach that won them over during the selection process.

ATTRACT THE FINEST In the spring of 2014, Headmaster Search Committee Co-Chairs H.

Sherman “Tiger” Joyce ’78, P ’10 ’12, and Michelle Freeman, P ’09 ’20,

assembled a committee of seven other trustees and two faculty members, Kathleen Lubin and Ted Ogden, to work with executive search firm Spencer Stuart to find Landon’s next headmaster. Their first order of business: Make the process private.

“We took some heat for that,” Freeman admitted. “But Tiger and I

determined that if we were going to attract the best talent in the country, it had to be a completely confidential process.” Freeman said the move

paid off and attracted “many wonderful, mind-blowingly talented people”

from great institutions because the closed process would not jeopardize their current positions.

Kenary had kept in intermittent touch with Neill since they played

rugby together at Harvard, and immediately thought of Jim for the job.

Even so, Neill took some convincing.

“I always say that the best people aren’t looking,” Kenary said. “So I called

Jim and said, ‘You’ve had a great career at NPS. This is an opportunity to do something on a bigger stage, and I think you’d do really well here.”

“Jim is a very loyal person, so it was hard to think about leaving NPS,

especially since he was so happy there,” his wife, Amy McNamer, said.

“But once he started talking to Joe and other people on the Search Committee, we realized this wasn’t an opportunity he could pass up... and that it would be hard to find a better fit going forward.”

Indeed, the position offered Neill a new challenge while allowing the

family to remain in the area — something Jim and Amy were adamant

by the campus and, encouraged by his parents (and Potolicchio), applied for eighth grade, got in, and soon made the lengthy commute from Logan Circle to Landon.

“With everything the school stands for and what they’re trying to do

there, it just seemed like a perfect fit for me,” Webster said. However, the

transition from city public school to suburban prep school proved more difficult than Webster had anticipated.

“At first I was like, ‘I cannot be here, I don’t know any of these people,

they’re not from where I’m from,’” Webster told The Harvard Crimson in 2013. But his parents, and especially his father Darryl, encouraged him to stick it out. An All-Met hoops star at Coolidge in the early 1980s,

FEATURE | SCOTT HARRIS

SUPREMECALLING Harris embraced that message and has lived by it ever since. In

September 2013, he assumed the role of clerk of the Supreme Court of

the United States (SCOTUS), only the 20th person in history to hold the prestigious position.

As the clerk for SCOTUS, Harris manages the Clerk’s Office, which

maintains the Court’s records and dockets, processes filings in connection with each case, prepares the Court’s calendar, and issues orders and opinions when SCOTUS makes a ruling.

“The Clerk’s Office is generally the interface between people who are

litigating in the Court and the justices,” Harris said. “We also give advice and counsel to attorneys and pro se people [those appearing on their own behalf ] who are litigating in the Court.”

According to Harris, the job comes with two other big perks. He has

the “interesting and enjoyable” opportunity to speak to visiting groups, including students, soldiers, judges, attorneys and tourists, about the

federal judiciary process. And he is in the courtroom for many of the

sessions and rulings — including June’s landmark decision to legalize same-sex marriage and the October 2014 decision to uphold the Affordable Care Act.

“Mostly I’m just an observer, but even to be an observer for all of that is

amazing,” he said. “This year, with all the big cases we had, there was just

n the seventh grade, Scott Harris ’84 turned in a math

assignment that was returned with a note from teacher Peter Brown that read: “Stop resting on your laurels.” Harris, an

excellent math student, was perplexed and surprised by the comment. Today, he is grateful for it.

“That made me realize that at Landon it is very hard to

fall through the cracks,” Harris said, recalling the memory

from his second year at the school. “If someone sensed that you were

not paying attention or not pushing yourself as much as you could, they would make sure it was brought to your attention.”

an enormous amount of interest in what was going on.”

Although the laws of the United States are Harris’s passion now, during

his Landon days the laws of physics — and friendship — were what captured his imagination.

DIEHARD BEAR AND ASPIRING ENGINEER Harris came to Landon in the sixth grade and quickly made an impression

on his fellow Bears. “Scott is one of those guys who was responsible when we were 10... in a good way,” said Board of Trustees Chairman Joe Kenary ’82,

who — along with his brother Patrick Kenary ’84 — has been friends with

Harris since before their time at Landon. “And he has deep Landon roots.”

Indeed, Harris’s brothers Todd ’85 and Mark also attended Landon,

just as their father, the Hon. Stan Harris ’44, had before them (both Stan and Mark graduated from other schools). Scott formed strong lifelong bonds with many of his classmates and credits them with helping him maintain his focus.

“I had a terrific, well-rounded class of people who were very interested

in learning about things both inside and outside of class,” he said. “I have stayed very close with many of them over the years.”

Scott, a member of the varsity golf team and sailing club and an editor

of the Landon News, was elected to the Student Council every year that he attended Landon — but did not yet have an inkling that he would pursue the law.

“I feel I got a great education at Landon,” Scott said. “I had teachers

who were always challenging me to do better and push myself to learn in lots of different areas. I especially enjoyed math and science and thought that I was going to be an engineer for a career.”

Engineering was initially Harris’s focus when he attended Yale Univer-

sity as an undergraduate, but he soon realized he was more interested in

very long hours and high stress,” he said. “[The legal counsel position] was basically in-house counsel for the Supreme Court of the United States as an institution, plus doing some case-related work.”

The job offered Scott a refreshing change and a more manageable

lifestyle at the perfect time: He and his wife, Lisa Klem, welcomed the first of their three children that same year. Scott spent 11 years as legal counsel to SCOTUS, where he advised the justices and served under

both Chief Justice William Rehnquist and current Chief Justice John Roberts. Harris says he loved the legal counsel job, but jumped at the

opportunity when the clerk of the Supreme Court position opened up in 2013 — the first time it had been vacant in 22 years.

“I just decided it would be a fun switch to make,” he said. “So I applied

FROM THE ARCHIVES

LANDONALUMNI

YULE TIED 1957. Bears wore big bowties for the holiday choral concert pictured in our second straight musically themed “Archives.” Can you name the venue or any of the singers? Bonus if you identify the Landon teacher-coach-mentor in the group! Send your best guess to Communications@landon.net!

“Pitch Perfect 1985” Archive Photo Identified Jared Berkowitz ’94 writes: “I was in the Lower School Little Singers in

5th and 6th grade, and I recognize my classmates Chris Santos, Jay Kyle and John Maynard in the front row. I think we sang at the Mayflower Hotel, or else the Willard.”

It was indeed the Mayflower Hotel. Nice eye and good memory — thanks, Jared!

ANNUAL REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY 2014–2015 Dear Landon Community,

J

une 30 marked the end of the 2015 academic year and the end of an era, as beloved Headmaster David Armstrong left the White

Rocks for the West Coast. David was a dedicated fundraiser and

steward for our school, but first and foremost he was a great leader and an exceedingly good man. He will be missed.

As Landon enters its 87th year with new Headmaster Jim Neill

aboard, we strive to elevate the all-around experience for our boys and

In addition to the Landon Fund, the Landon community raised

funds in 2014–2015 for an array of initiatives, including faculty

housing, student scholarships and facility enhancements. Most notably, we renovated the baseball field and renamed it to recognize David

Armstrong for his service to and love of Landon. Azalea Garden Festival events — including the Festival, the Greens Sale and the Headmaster’s Wine Tasting — raised $668,000 for student financial assistance and

faculty enrichment. We also secured $730,000 in planned giving pledges.

None of this would have been possible without the support of our

the dedicated teacher-coach-mentors who inspire, guide and encourage

community, and we offer our gratitude to each individual who generously

continue to work to improve the school to make Landon the best boys

continues to prepare talented boys for lives as accomplished, responsible

them each day. Fundraising is essential to accomplish our goals as we school in America.

I am pleased to provide this 2014–2015 Annual Report to the

Community. The report represents our attempt to thank and recognize

those listed on the following pages. Their contributions reflect the deep reservoir of support of so many Landon families and friends.

contributed to our school. Together, we can ensure that Landon and caring men for now and the future.

We thank you all for your generosity. Go Bears!

Sincerely,

The Landon Fund brought in almost $1.75 million over the course

of the year to provide vital capital for the day-to-day operations of our school. Contributions to the fund — including, once again, donations from 100 percent of our faculty and staff — helped fulfill immediate

needs for each and every Bear: paint and brushes for our artists, athletics

To masters, alumni, trustees, staff, parents, and friends, who for varied reasons have supported Landon steadily and valiantly, I would dedicate…

Landon itself. All of us have helped, and Landon belongs to all of us. The quality of the unswerving loyalty as we have all striven for excellence in all things is and will always be our most significant endowment.
