blessed to have spent that time surrounded by amazing people—friends, teachers, coaches, and house mothers. Burton and I enjoy remembering dorm life, sports, classes, chapel services, and for Burton, dating the Northfield girls. Through all the changes between ’54 and ’99, the mission of NMH to educate the head, heart, and hand and to promote community, responsibility, respect, and pride has endured and affected both of us deeply and permanently. Our daily outlook on the world is colored by NMH glasses, and we are so much the better for it.”

From Kate: Hello, class of ’06. This past spring I had the opportunity to attend reunion and catch up with the classes of ’02 and ’07. Let’s get into the important topic at hand: where is everyone? To be included in future issues of the NMH Magazine, please email me at kdahayes@gmail.com. I live in N.Y.C. and still see Amanda Kusek all the time. She recently went to the wedding of Crystal Jones in Aruba. There are quite a few ’06ers in the city, and it’s always fun to get everyone together. In the spring, Amanda and I caught up with Lily Vreeland, David Engel, Francis Bea, Tumpale Ngwira, Alex Mercado, Julian Giat, Sam LaCroix, and a few others (To those I didn’t include, I still love you.). I also ran into Chris Swoszowski and Ian Mangiardi, who were look-
ing at my building. Moving a bit north, we do still have a large presence in the Boston area. Courtney Opalenik is doing research at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Cambridge and applying to graduate school. Sarah Woodbury is working on a master’s in Hebrew Bible at Harvard Divinity School and often enjoys lunch with Emily Estes. In her free time, Sarah judges middle-school debates in the Boston public school system. Moving west, Cookie Smith is in Dublin, Ohio, working at the Ohio Orthopedic Center in the physical therapy department. She still plays lacrosse and soccer, and coaches high school women’s lacrosse. She hopes to attend PA school within the next two years. Congratulations to Tiarra Maznick Cooper,
