FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES One of my favorite things about being part of the Rowland Hall community is listening to our students speak. In early June, I had the opportunity to attend the commencement ceremonies for the class of 2017 as well as my own daughter’s fifth-grade graduation. As I listened to student speakers that week, a common theme impressed me: growth. Our students expressed gratitude for how Rowland Hall has encouraged them to grow and take risks, and excitement for what awaits them in the next chapter of their lives. They truly embraced the growth mindset that Director of Ethical Education Ryan Hoglund spoke about at Convocation last fall: whenever a challenge presents itself, they remind themselves they just haven’t figured out how to surpass it…yet.

In truth, growth mindset has long been a part of Rowland Hall’s culture.

Learners of every age at Rowland Hall—including faculty and staff—are inspired to innovate and strive for their personal bests. This was true of the Episcopal missionaries who founded our school in the 1860s. They were pioneers in the educational landscape of the Intermountain West, and they laid the groundwork for all the school leaders that have shaped Rowland Hall the past 150 years. From teachers like Tony Larimer to administrators like Julie Barrett, we have a legacy of looking to the future and saying, “We’re doing well, but how can we be even better?”

Our dedication to continuous improvement is what makes me excited about the future of Rowland Hall. In the past year, we’ve seen great strides toward

2016 - 2017 . REPORTS

Goal 2 of our Strategic Plan: provide the Intermountain West’s most outstanding math and science program. Our students are earning awards in computer science, winning competitions designing medical devices, and excelling in Middle School Mathcounts, all the while remaining connected to their roles as global citizens, and earning a well-rounded education. As the school devotes more time and energy this coming year to Goal 3 of the Strategic Plan—develop the enrollment and business model for our future—I have no doubt we will continue to flourish.

Rowland Hall’s Board of Trustees is committed to the growth of our school and the Capital Campaign to build a new Middle School and athletic complex. With world-class facilities for study, practice, and play, the new campus will move us forward as a community.

I heard one of our graduating lifers say something this spring that stuck with me: Rowland Hall has taught her to “run at the challenges.” This attitude of enthusiasm and tenacity in the face of difficult work is evidence of the character we are building in our students.

It brings me such joy to be leading the Board of Trustees during this significant period of the school’s growth.

I’m excited to see what Rowland Hall’s community will accomplish in 2017-2018 as we run toward the next challenge together.

2016 - 2017 FINANCE REPORT Dear School Friends, As in past years, the Finance Committee focused on maintaining a sound financial position, strengthening controls and processes, and ensuring Rowland Hall uses tuition dollars effectively in realizing the five-year Strategic Plan. We had an excellent year including a successful auction in March. Enrollment grew and helped to drive strong finances. The Business Office has added rigor and oversight by continuing to look for ways to centralize and coordinate key processes leading to efficiencies for the school as a whole. Current operations are paramount, but we’re also actively planning for the future. As the Capital Campaign enters its next phase—the creation of a new Middle School and athletic complex on the Steiner Campus—we’re prepared to take on the long-term task of creating facilities to carry Rowland Hall into the next century. We continue to enhance our financial fortitude and flexibility with a focus on strong enrollment and endowment growth. It remains a mission to continuously, clearly, and aggressively define and communicate the value of a Rowland Hall education to our students, parents, alumni, and the community at large.

TR ANSITIONS SALUTE TO DEPARTING TRUSTEES Every year the Board of Trustees and school community thanks and bids farewell to several dedicated volunteers who have worked hard for many years on behalf of the school. This year we would like to give special thanks to four trustees who have been exceptional in their service.

WELCOME NEW TRUSTEES Brian Barker

Jay Bartlett

Brian Barker served for six years on the Board of Trustees. During his service, he chaired the Communication, Recruitment, and Retention Committee. Mr. Barker has a great eye for detail and was helpful in examining how the school could improve its internal and external communication.

Josh Kanter completed six years of service on the board. Mr. Kanter was the chair of the Investment Committee, where he helped develop the school’s investment policy. He and wife Catherine have agreed to co-chair the Capital Campaign Steering Committee, and we are thankful for his continued leadership at the school.

Adria Swindle ’95 served as the Home and School Association representative for the McCarthey Campus for the past three years. During her time on the board, Ms. Swindle served on the nominating, alumni, and development committees. She and husband Geoff ’94 also chaired this year’s auction, The Great Gala, raising vital funds for faculty and staff professional development and the new Middle School and athletic complex on the Steiner Campus and financial aid.

Josh Kanter

Adria Swindle Jay Bartlett

Michael Weinholtz steps down after two terms on the board. Mr. Weinholtz was a key person in recent discussions on school culture, helping the school to articulate the core values that make Rowland Hall so remarkable. He was also a strong supporter of and donor to our financial aid program.

Jay Bartlett joined the Rowland Hall community in 2015 when he moved to Utah with wife Julie and daughter Tessa, a fifth-grader. Prior to living in Utah, the Bartletts lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Mr. Bartlett graduated magna cum laude from the University of Vermont, and earned a Masters of Business Administration from the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College, where he was named a Tuck Scholar. After Tuck, he spent a few years with the management consultancy Bain & Company in Boston, Massachusetts, and Sydney, Australia, before moving to Utah (the first time) to work with the Salt Lake Organizing Committee for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games. At the conclusion of the games, Mr. Bartlett and his wife returned to Boston for what was supposed to be only a few years, but turned into 13 years.

For the last 15 years, Mr. Bartlett has been a management consultant with the Parthenon Group, now Parthenon-EY, where he advises private equity firms on new investments.

While in Boston, Mr. Bartlett served as chair of the board of the Cambridge Ellis School, and was on the finance committee at Belmont Day School. In addition, he served six years on the MBA Advisory Board at the Tuck School.

Thank you, again, to our outgoing trustees for their hard work and dedication. All of our students and faculty benefited from your efforts.

Kitty Northrop Friedman is a member of Rowland Hall’s class of 1991 and a longtime leader in the nonprofit sector. She and her husband, Peter, returned to Utah in 2016 after living in several states, most recently New York.

Ms. Friedman currently works as a development specialist at the Park City Community Foundation.

Ms. Friedman earned her bachelor’s degree from Bates College in 1995, and four years later earned her JD from Vermont Law School, where she won a Schweitzer Fellowship. She worked as an attorney at Holland & Knight LLP in New York City before jumping into the world of philanthropy, development, and nonprofits. She gained expertise in the independent school sector while working as the director of development at the Green Mountain Valley School—an elite ski academy in Vermont serving grades seven through twelve—and as associate director of development at the Ethel Walker School in Connecticut. Ms. Friedman has volunteered on the boards of many organizations serving women and children, including the Cobb School Montessori and Women’s Health Research at Yale, both in Connecticut. She currently is a board member of two foundations, along with the Boys’ Club of New York and Bates College.

The Friedmans have three children at Rowland Hall: sixth-grader Molly, ninth-grader Lindley, and eleventh-grader Ned. All three are Rowmarkers, and Ms. Friedman, a Rowmark alumna herself, is excited to reconnect with Rowmark alumni during the academy’s 35th anniversary as part of the school’s sesquicentennial anniversary. Her mother, Christine McRoy, served on the Rowland Hall board during the late 1980s and early 1990s, and Ms. Friedman is happy to continue the family tradition.

Virginia Gowski is a marketing and strategic planning consultant and community volunteer in Salt Lake City. Previously, she served as associate director of marketing and licensing at the Sundance Institute/Film Festival overseeing all branding, marketing, and merchandising efforts, and as director of marketing for the University of Utah’s Division of Continuing Education, where she was responsible for all marketing and outreach activities for the division’s ten unique departments.

In her prior East Coast life, Ms. Gowski worked with a variety of nonprofit, educational, government, and corporate clients as director at Reingold Inc., a boutique marketing, communications, and training firm in Washington, DC. She also worked for Markowitz & McNaughton Inc., in management consulting and competitive intelligence. She has a degree in foreign affairs from the University of Virginia.

In addition to serving on the Rowland Hall Board of Trustees, Ms. Gowski is the volunteer coordinator for the McCarthey Home and School Association.

She’s currently chair of the board for VSA/Art Access. She also serves on Salt Lake City and County’s joint Cultural Core Committee, and the steering committee of the Tumbleweeds Children’s Film Festival. She was previously chair of the Denver-based Western States Arts Federation and has served on many local nonprofit boards, including the Utah Film Center, Spy Hop Institute for Teachers, and the Utah Cultural Alliance. She has worked in national- and statelevel arts advocacy throughout her career.

Ms. Gowski and her husband, Bill, an orthopedic surgeon, have lived in Salt Lake City for 15 years. They have three children at Rowland Hall: fourth-grader Freddy, second-grader Liza, and kindergartner Jack.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CLASS OF 2017 This year, Rowland Hall graduated its largest senior class ever: 90 students. Of these seniors, 30 of them are lifers—students who have attended our school for 12 or more years. They will matriculate to 52 different colleges and universities this fall, and 77% of them were offered merit-based aid to continue their education. Seven were finalists for National Merit Scholarships, and many were awarded scholarships from local and national organizations, including the Salt Lake Rotary Club, Youthlinc, and the American Red Cross. The class of 2017 includes top-notch debaters who received multiple bids to the Tournament of Champions, were named National Speech and Debate Association Academic All-Americans, and won the prestigious Young Lawyers Tournament. Budding scientists and engineers, they embraced the maker movement, building items such as a robotic arm and a hovercraft. Two young women were honored with Aspirations in Computing awards from the National Center for Women and Information Technology. One student developed and marketed an app to encourage the use of alternate transportation, and partnered with another to design an award-winning virtual reality game for patients with autism spectrum disorder. Five seniors competed as members of the first two Bench-to-Bedside high school teams. Both teams created innovative medical devices, and one team brought home two prizes.

Our seniors excelled as athletes: each year of their Upper School careers, our athletics program placed among the top five in the Deseret News 2A All-Sports Awards. They earned 23 Region titles and five State titles as teams, with individuals winning 12 Region and nine State titles. Eight seniors are Rowmark Ski Academy athletes, who collectively earned 13 top-five finishes at championship events. Another competed as a bigmountain skier, and was named a Freeride Junior World Champion.

Outside of school, students played for club soccer and volleyball teams, ran marathons (even in Antarctica), and earned black belts in karate or Soo Bahk Do. This class includes a professional mountain biker, a member of the U-19 Utah Lady Grizzlies, an elite gymnast, a Junior Olympian in fencing, a member of the US Figure Skating Scholastic Honors Team, and a top-10 finisher in USA Swimming. This group has no shortage of accomplished artists, including dancers, poets, painters, and singers. They led the award-winning Upper School Orchestra and the Jazz Band, and individually competed on instruments ranging from piano to conga drums. These artists performed with groups such as the Voodoo Orchestra and La Onda Caribeña, and played in front of crowds at the Telluride Jazz Festival and Glasgow Music Festival. One group of musicians formed the Lincoln Street Jazz Company, sharing their talents at local assisted-living facilities. Several of our seniors will continue their musical studies in college. Their collaborative spirit was evident in service-learning projects, with a team of 20 students partnering with the Navajo Nation in Southern Utah. They planted garden boxes, mentored children, and interviewed hospice volunteers on the reservation, and two students created a film documenting their collective experience. Two seniors led Middle School students through a sustainability project that won the Shane McConkey EcoChallenge and created a bench out of recycled water bottles.

Individually, the class of 2017 volunteered countless hours both locally and abroad, tutoring refugees, caring for shelter animals, lobbying for environmental protections, and organizing blood drives. It is difficult to quantify the impact their good citizenship will have on the world.

This class understands the value of hard work, with some holding jobs as lifeguards, coaches, baristas, or tutors. They explored potential career

paths through internships at the University of Utah, Red Butte Gardens, Alliance for a Better Utah, and the Salt Lake Film Society. Several enrolled in summer sessions, including at Phillips Exeter Academy and the Wharton School, and one participated in a mock United Nations program.

Even summer travel was educational, with one young man joining Cambridge faculty on an archeological dig and anthropological trip to Kenyan villages. Our seniors’ personal experiences have made them resilient and compassionate: some have families that immigrated from war-torn countries, and many work to combat religious, racial, ethnic, and gender discrimination. They speak languages ranging from Italian to Swahili, have traveled to South Korea, New Zealand, and China, and continually seek to build bridges with people of differing backgrounds. Members of the class of 2017 will leave their mark on the community, whether as a world-ranked junior skateboarder, clothing designer, dedicated unicyclist, or passionate equestrian. While we cannot list all of their achievements here, we hope you share our pride in celebrating these outstanding graduates.

Thirty members of the graduating class are LIFERS — students who have attended Rowland Hall for at least 12 years.

PROGR AMS THE STRATEGIC PLAN: PAST THE HALFWAY POINT The Goals Three years ago, Rowland Hall announced its ambitious, student-centered five-year Strategic Plan with three goals: (1) enhance the student learning experience; (2) provide the best math and science programs in the Intermountain West; and (3) develop the business and enrollment model for the future.

The school has crossed the plan’s halfway point and continues to share and assess its impact. Our learning culture is stronger than ever. In our classrooms, teachers challenge themselves to create rich and meaningful experiences for our students.

After the plan’s 2014 unveiling, math and science teachers could have interpreted Goal 2 as a threat, or as an opportunity. Fortunately, our dedicated teachers chose to see it as an opportunity and seized the chance to become even more effective in the classroom. Faculty continue to work with administrators to identify areas of growth, celebrate strengths, and create a roadmap for the future. The finance committee of the board, in partnership with the business office, has begun work on Goal 3 with a focus on strong enrollment and endowment growth.

Breaking it Down In the Beginning School, professional development offerings focused on math and science training for early childhood educators. Beth Van Meeteren, Ph.D., presented at a school in-service day with a focus on science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education, emphasizing engineering for young children. Almost all of the Beginning School teachers attended these optional sessions as a show of their commitment to providing the best math and science programs in the Intermountain West.

In the Lower School, classroom teachers and the science and math specialists have made tremendous progress aligning curriculum, standards, and resources to support the most cohesive and comprehensive math and science programs

possible. The Lower School science specialist and each gradelevel team have spent time clarifying roles, aligning content, and adopting the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)—the well-respected national benchmark for how to teach and think about K-12 science. The Lower School principal and director of curriculum and instruction (DCI) attended National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) and National Research Council meetings, and both accompanied Upper School Science Department Chair Alisa Poppen and Lower School Science Specialist Kirsten Walker to a two-day NSTA training focusing on implementing the NGSS. Our Middle School science teachers are reevaluating and reorganizing their curriculum and practices based on NGSS’ three-dimensional learning to aid proficiency in science.

Fifth- and sixth-grade teachers are working together to strengthen the bridge between the two grades, particularly in math and science. Two of our Middle School science teachers joined the team attending NSTA’s annual conference in March, and brought back plenty of ideas and inspiration to share with colleagues.

In the Upper School this year, science and math department chairs taught one fewer class so they could meet regularly with their department members, the Upper School principal, and the director of curriculum and instruction to collaborate about best practices and common goals. These department chairs continue to establish cross-divisional connections with colleagues in other grades.

Since the 2014-2015 school year, teachers have taken advantage of the professional development opportunities that abound inside and outside of Rowland Hall. During

after-school sessions and in-service days, our teachers share illuminating and exciting best practices, and several Rowland Hall educators have led professional workshops for peers, locally and nationally. This summer, four of our Upper School math teachers spent a week at the Anja S. Greer Conference on Mathematics and Technology, one of the premier professional development opportunities for people in their field.

Authentic Learning Experiences As our teachers continue to focus on making our math and science courses the richest and most engaging they can be, we keep our eyes open for new ways to bring authentic experiences to our students. One such opportunity recently presented itself, and eight Upper School students took full advantage. The University of Utah’s Center for Medical Innovation sponsors the Bench2-Bedside (B2B) competition, designed to introduce medical, engineering, and business students to the world of medical-device innovation. This year, two teams of medical entrepreneurs from

Rowland Hall joined elite teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Utah in pursuit of patents and cash prizes for new medical technologies. This marks the first time that high school students have been allowed to enter the competition, and Rowland Hall’s teams were the only young pioneers in the mix. One Rowland Hall team won the Best Young Entrepreneur Award worth $500 at B2B on April 3, and one of three grand prizes worth $5,000 each at the High School Utah Entrepreneur Challenge on April 15.

Our teachers welcome feedback and use it as a measure of teaching effectiveness. This year, math and science teachers in grades six through twelve piloted the Tripod student survey, a research-based tool that provides student feedback to teachers on classroom practices that impact student learning and achievement. Already, several teachers have used data from initial surveys to identify areas for improvement and shape their professional goals for the year.

As a school, we are focused on the ideas of claim-evidence-reasoning, from first through twelfth grade, and across disciplines. These ideas are a central theme of the NGSS Science and Engineering Practices and the P ROGRA MS .

Similar process standards can be found in the National Council for History Education’s Blueprint for Student Learning, and in key points within the standards of the National Council of Teachers of English. Claim-evidence-reasoning provides a structure for students to sharpen criticalthinking skills: they make a claim based on observations; gather, assess, and share evidence; and then make a reasoned argument for how the evidence explains their claim.

What’s Next?

While we are far from finished, math and science teachers, the division principals, the director of curriculum and instruction, and members of the math and science task force have made great strides in designing programs that are the best in the Intermountain West.

The Finance Committee of the Board of Trustees, in conjunction with Chief Financial Officer Gwen Fonarow, is beginning to work on Goal 3: Develop the Enrollment and Business Model for our Future. The bullet points of this goal ask the school to review the financial philosophy and budgeting model to fund the finest PreK-12 program in the Intermountain West. School staff and the Finance Committee will continue to evaluate data regarding revenue and expenses as it relates to enrollment and capacity, and provide a detailed recommendation to the Board of Trustees in the coming year.

THREE ROWLAND HALL SENIORS RECEIVE ROTARY SCHOLARSHIPS FOR COMMUNITY SERVICE

Elizabeth Izampuye, Alicia Lu, Kate Button

On Tuesday, May 9, the Salt Lake Rotary Club awarded Rowland Hall senior Elizabeth Izampuye with a Service Above Self award and a $2,000 college scholarship for her hundreds of volunteer hours with the Salt Lake City Red Cross, the George E. Wahlen Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Center, and more. Seniors Alicia Lu and Kate Button were award finalists and received $1,000 each.

Elizabeth has devoted over 245 hours of her time to the local Red Cross chapter and the VA since 2014. As a junior, she served as co-president for Youth Services and planned and directed meetings. She's currently a board member representing youth voices. Elizabeth is certified to provide disaster services and teach disaster preparedness—a fitting introduction for her long-range career goal of becoming a global/public-health administrator. "My desire to help those made vulnerable by societal disasters extends to my local and global communities; specifically, the lower class, homeless, refugees, and children in foster care," Elizabeth wrote in her Rotary scholarship application. "Red Cross Youth Services has taught me about what it means to set an example for others and how to serve

those in need...and teach them information they can apply to their own lives." At the VA, she helped veterans needing mobility assistance, and got to know them in the process.

As a junior, Alicia co-led a group of upper and middle school students to collect and create eco-bricks for a new bench on school grounds—a cross-divisional endeavor that won the grand prize from the Shane McConkey EcoChallenge. "Service offers opportunities to work with others to grapple with issues I'm truly passionate about," Alicia wrote in her application. "Through my service projects, I've become friends with other creative and dedicated people who I had previously just passed in the hallway."

Kate, daughter of beloved fifth-grade teacher Sarah Button, might follow in her mom's footsteps: in her application, she noted she may pursue a teaching career.

Accordingly, Kate spent her junior year volunteering as a Middle School tutor at Rowland Hall. "I enjoyed this work because I knew that I was genuinely helping my 'students' to understand new concepts," Kate wrote.

Director of Ethical Education Ryan Hoglund said the Salt Lake Rotary Service Above Self awards are a highlight of the year for him. "Seeing our students and youth from across the valley stand together and be honored for their commitment to community building, one cannot help but feel the future is in good hands," he said. "Rotary International is the standard for service organizations. These dedicated Rowland Hall seniors should be proud of this recognition."

Similar process standards can be found in the National Council for History Education’s Blueprint for Student Learning, and in key points within the standards of the National Council of Teachers of English. Claim-evidence-reasoning provides a structure for students to sharpen criticalthinking skills: they make a claim based on observations; gather, assess, and share evidence; and then make a reasoned argument for how the evidence explains their claim.

What’s Next?

While we are far from finished, math and science teachers, the division principals, the director of curriculum and instruction, and members of the math and science task force have made great strides in designing programs that are the best in the Intermountain West.

The Finance Committee of the Board of Trustees, in conjunction with Chief Financial Officer Gwen Fonarow, is beginning to work on Goal 3: Develop the Enrollment and Business Model for our Future. The bullet points of this goal ask the school to review the financial philosophy and budgeting model to fund the finest PreK-12 program in the Intermountain West. School staff and the Finance Committee will continue to evaluate data regarding revenue and expenses as it relates to enrollment and capacity, and provide a detailed recommendation to the Board of Trustees in the coming year.

THREE ROWLAND HALL SENIORS RECEIVE ROTARY SCHOLARSHIPS FOR COMMUNITY SERVICE

Elizabeth Izampuye, Alicia Lu, Kate Button

On Tuesday, May 9, the Salt Lake Rotary Club awarded Rowland Hall senior Elizabeth Izampuye with a Service Above Self award and a $2,000 college scholarship for her hundreds of volunteer hours with the Salt Lake City Red Cross, the George E. Wahlen Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Center, and more. Seniors Alicia Lu and Kate Button were award finalists and received $1,000 each.

Elizabeth has devoted over 245 hours of her time to the local Red Cross chapter and the VA since 2014. As a junior, she served as co-president for Youth Services and planned and directed meetings. She's currently a board member representing youth voices. Elizabeth is certified to provide disaster services and teach disaster preparedness—a fitting introduction for her long-range career goal of becoming a global/public-health administrator. "My desire to help those made vulnerable by societal disasters extends to my local and global communities; specifically, the lower class, homeless, refugees, and children in foster care," Elizabeth wrote in her Rotary scholarship application. "Red Cross Youth Services has taught me about what it means to set an example for others and how to serve

those in need...and teach them information they can apply to their own lives." At the VA, she helped veterans needing mobility assistance, and got to know them in the process.

As a junior, Alicia co-led a group of upper and middle school students to collect and create eco-bricks for a new bench on school grounds—a cross-divisional endeavor that won the grand prize from the Shane McConkey EcoChallenge. "Service offers opportunities to work with others to grapple with issues I'm truly passionate about," Alicia wrote in her application. "Through my service projects, I've become friends with other creative and dedicated people who I had previously just passed in the hallway."

Kate, daughter of beloved fifth-grade teacher Sarah Button, might follow in her mom's footsteps: in her application, she noted she may pursue a teaching career.

Accordingly, Kate spent her junior year volunteering as a Middle School tutor at Rowland Hall. "I enjoyed this work because I knew that I was genuinely helping my 'students' to understand new concepts," Kate wrote.

Director of Ethical Education Ryan Hoglund said the Salt Lake Rotary Service Above Self awards are a highlight of the year for him. "Seeing our students and youth from across the valley stand together and be honored for their commitment to community building, one cannot help but feel the future is in good hands," he said. "Rotary International is the standard for service organizations. These dedicated Rowland Hall seniors should be proud of this recognition."

STUDENTS LEAD THE WAY WITH A FINELY TUNED ENSEMBLE Rowland Hall’s Upper School seminar classes just keep getting better. Students may enroll in pre-selected seminar classes or they can pitch their specific interest to administration and form an accredited class with like-minded kids and a mentor.

This year when sophomore and budding violinist Austin Topham decided he and a cadre of musicians—Atticus Hickman, Augustus Hickman, and Tobi Yoon—could expand their group and pursue a challenging repertoire, he decided to reach for the certified title of Advanced Chamber Ensemble (ACE). Upper School Principal Dave Samson reviewed the earnest seminar class application and gave it a thumbs-up. Middle School Orchestra and

24

2016 - 2017 . PROGRAM S

Chamber Music teacher, Sarah Yoon, gladly agreed to mentor the group.

The ACE class roster quickly grew to eight members when Patrick McNally, Jake Bleil, Alex Benton, and Claire Sanderson joined.

The new parties brought further sonic depth to the ensemble, which now included violin, cello, bass, and piano.

In addition to meeting during their seminar class, the group meets on weekends and before school as needed to prepare for regional and state competitions. The class is divided into three ensembles: Dvorak Quintet in G major, Mendelssohn Piano Trio in D minor, Vivaldi Cello duet in G minor. Members of ACE often participate in

advanced music competitions and ensembles outside of school, such as Utah Youth Orchestras and Ensembles, the Gifted Music School, and the All-State Orchestra. The ACE curriculum prioritizes a college-level repertoire while balancing the student's’ academic schedule.

In March, the three ensembles and four individual soloists successfully competed at the Utah High School Activities Association (UHSAA) Region Solo and Ensemble Festival and advanced to the State festival.

Onlookers at Regionals caught the judge wiping away tears at ACE’s interpretation of the Mendelssohn Trio. At State, the Dvorak Quintet, Mendelssohn Trio, Vivaldi Duet, and three soloists received a superior rating, the highest possible. One comment on the judging sheet for the Dvorak performance read, “Wow! The best thing I heard all day! Congratulations on an outstanding performance! Bravo!”

A scan of UHSAA website results show that past Rowland Hall ensembles have achieved superior ratings, and more and more are qualifying for State—proof of the increasing success of all Rowland Hall music students due to excellent training by Ms. Yoon and Interfaith Chaplain and Choir and Orchestra Teacher Jeremy Innis. Additional Rowland Hall ensembles and soloists who advanced to state level competition this year are Megan Fenton, Cindy Shen, and Alicia Lu. Congratulations to all.

A D VA N C E M E N T Dear Donors and Friends, As we approach the school’s 150-year anniversary, I have had many opportunities to reflect on my own Rowland Hall experience. I have been fortunate to be a part of the Rowland Hall community for my entire life, as a student, an alumna, and now as a member of the administration. I know firsthand the value of Rowland Hall’s small class sizes, dedicated teachers, and supportive learning environment.

We are all a part of a remarkable community, as is evidenced by the generous gifts and countless number of volunteer hours that you have given to the school over the past year. Thanks to you, Rowland Hall is thriving. Our Annual Giving Campaign had another banner year, reaching 73% parent participation. This year’s auction, The Great Gala, drew a record-breaking number of guests and amounted to one of the most successful auctions in recent history. Lastly, we have assembled a dedicated team of volunteers to lead our Capital Campaign effort, and fundraising for the Steiner Campus project is off to a strong start.

I look forward to gathering with you over the next school year to celebrate our past accomplishments and look toward the future. Mark your calendars for the sesquicentennial events on September 8-9, 2017, and May 19, 2018, and join us to celebrate this significant milestone.

As a community, we have a lot to celebrate and be thankful for. Thank you for making Rowland Hall a priority in your giving and for supporting our mission and our students.

Middle School on the Steiner Campus

As we approach the 150-year anniversary of Rowland Hall, we look to the future and think about what will enable the school to continue providing a premier educational experience for generations of students to come. We have enjoyed extraordinary support from our community: parents, grandparents, alumni, and friends who come together to share in the culture of learning, who challenge one another to support the school in meaningful ways, and who are grateful for the impact a Rowland Hall education has had on their family. It is this community that has inspired us to build the Richard R. Steiner Campus, bringing all Rowland Hall students together again while enhancing teaching and learning at the first and finest independent school in the Intermountain West.

Our vision for the future is bright. The Steiner Campus will carry the school through the next 150 years, and plans for the next phase of the project, building a new Middle School and athletic complex, are well underway. The Middle School on the Steiner Campus will provide innovative learning spaces for all classes, including arts and ensembles, electives, accelerated programming, and athletics.

Classrooms will be 130 square feet larger, on average, than existing Middle School classrooms, giving our students and teachers much-needed space that is lacking in our existing building.

The new Middle School will feature flexible and adaptive spaces that allow students and teachers to create learning environments to enhance the curriculum, instead of limiting the curriculum to fixed spaces. This phase of the project will also build the Steiner Campus athletic complex. This facility will boast a full-size gymnasium, spacious weight and cardio room, dance studio, athletic office spaces and locker rooms, and a Rowmark Ski Academy center.

Led by Development Chair Chris Von Maack ’97 and Campaign Co-Chairs Josh and Catherine Kanter and Saul and Ericka Weissman, our early fundraising for the project is off to a strong start. We are encouraged by the excitement of the school community and the early leadership gifts that have been pledged. We have recruited a dedicated and enthusiastic team of volunteers for the Capital Campaign Steering Committee who are working hard to obtain leadership gifts. The project timeline is still in development and will be determined based on our ability to raise funds over the coming months. We will keep the community updated on campus plans, fundraising successes, and timeline developments as the capital campaign progresses.

Rowland Hall The 2017-2018 school year marks the sesquicentennial anniversary of Rowland Hall, Utah’s First and Finest Independent School. From 16 students gathered in a downtown bowling alley in 1867 to 950 students studying on two campuses today, Rowland Hall has stayed true to its mission of inspiring students to lead ethical and productive lives for 150 years.

New standards for education in Utah were set when The Rt. Rev. Daniel S. Tuttle, George Foote, and Rev. Thomas Haskins founded St. Mark’s School on July 1, 1867. The focus of the school was to offer young men and women a classical education while preparing them for college. Across the West, the school was praised for its educational objectives.

Brian Birchler, Upper School Math Department Chair

St. Mark’s School, and soon after, Rowland Hall, was at the forefront of education in Utah, before Utah was a state and before there were public schools in the territory. By 1871, the school had grown to 310 students and was well on its way to being the school we know today.

YEARS

2016-2017 Marquardt Award for Faculty Development Congratulations to the recipients of the 2016-2017 Marquardt Award for Faculty Development.

Four members of the Upper School math department had the opportunity to attend the Anja S. Greer Conference on Mathematics and Technology at Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, New Hampshire from June 25 to 30. According to Exeter’s website, “the primary emphasis of the conference is mathematics focusing on the impact and applications of technology in the classroom and the role of technology in today's and tomorrow's mathematics curricula.” Ms. Lisa Friedman and Ms. Adella Croft dedicated the week to writing problems that vertically align courses over the years, and are specifically focused on the transition between algebra 2 honors and advanced topics in precalculus. Dr. Emina Alibegovic immersed herself in a course on modeling in algebra and precalculus that has helped her see new opportunities for connecting our math and science classrooms. Mr. Brian Birchler was able to gain an introduction to R, an open source program for statistical analysis that is becoming an academic and industry standard, and he can't wait to introduce it in his classroom. In addition to all the excellent workshops, presentations, and discussions, the department enjoyed time to brainstorm future opportunities and directions for growth, as well as an evening driving and exploring the Maine coastline.

“This conference is one of the best professional development opportunities for math teachers in the country,” says Associate Head of School Jennifer Blake.

The Marquardt Award was established in 2011 through a generous gift from Bob Marquardt, father of three Rowland Hall alumni and a trustee emeritus. This gift to our endowment annually funds an extraordinary professional development opportunity a faculty member proposes that will benefit the school as a whole.

Rowland Hall The 2017-2018 school year marks the sesquicentennial anniversary of Rowland Hall, Utah’s First and Finest Independent School. From 16 students gathered in a downtown bowling alley in 1867 to 950 students studying on two campuses today, Rowland Hall has stayed true to its mission of inspiring students to lead ethical and productive lives for 150 years.

New standards for education in Utah were set when The Rt. Rev. Daniel S. Tuttle, George Foote, and Rev. Thomas Haskins founded St. Mark’s School on July 1, 1867. The focus of the school was to offer young men and women a classical education while preparing them for college. Across the West, the school was praised for its educational objectives.

Brian Birchler, Upper School Math Department Chair

St. Mark’s School, and soon after, Rowland Hall, was at the forefront of education in Utah, before Utah was a state and before there were public schools in the territory. By 1871, the school had grown to 310 students and was well on its way to being the school we know today.

YEARS

2016-2017 Marquardt Award for Faculty Development Congratulations to the recipients of the 2016-2017 Marquardt Award for Faculty Development.

Four members of the Upper School math department had the opportunity to attend the Anja S. Greer Conference on Mathematics and Technology at Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, New Hampshire from June 25 to 30. According to Exeter’s website, “the primary emphasis of the conference is mathematics focusing on the impact and applications of technology in the classroom and the role of technology in today's and tomorrow's mathematics curricula.” Ms. Lisa Friedman and Ms. Adella Croft dedicated the week to writing problems that vertically align courses over the years, and are specifically focused on the transition between algebra 2 honors and advanced topics in precalculus. Dr. Emina Alibegovic immersed herself in a course on modeling in algebra and precalculus that has helped her see new opportunities for connecting our math and science classrooms. Mr. Brian Birchler was able to gain an introduction to R, an open source program for statistical analysis that is becoming an academic and industry standard, and he can't wait to introduce it in his classroom. In addition to all the excellent workshops, presentations, and discussions, the department enjoyed time to brainstorm future opportunities and directions for growth, as well as an evening driving and exploring the Maine coastline.

“This conference is one of the best professional development opportunities for math teachers in the country,” says Associate Head of School Jennifer Blake.

The Marquardt Award was established in 2011 through a generous gift from Bob Marquardt, father of three Rowland Hall alumni and a trustee emeritus. This gift to our endowment annually funds an extraordinary professional development opportunity a faculty member proposes that will benefit the school as a whole.

Rowland Hall’s founders were firm believers in the power of education and the importance of strong character.

Adria ’95 and Geoff Swindle ’94, Auction Chairs

The 2017 Rowland Hall auction, The Great Gala, was a resounding success! For the past 37 years, the biennial auction has provided instrumental support to the school. Thanks to our community’s generosity, we raised $381,000 for faculty and staff professional development, the Steiner Campus Extraordinary Vision Capital Campaign, and financial aid. This year's paddle raise was the most successful in the school's history! Thanks to our magnanimous guests, we raised a record $81,000 in support of financial aid. A huge thank you to junior Ava Mitra for sharing her experience as an international student from Bangladesh.

For the first time in school history, we held the event off campus, which yielded significant savings. The Tower at Rice-Eccles Stadium provided a sophisticated setting and allowed us to accommodate more people than our on-campus auctions of the past.

Thank you to our record 448 guests for embracing this exciting new venue and coming together as a community for a roaring good time in the name of Rowland Hall.

Nearly 100 years ago, Virginia Lamborne entered the doors of Rowland Hall’s Avenues Campus and began her education at a school unlike any other in Salt Lake City. Rowland Hall had an ahead-ofits-time reputation for providing young women “an opportunity to study academic subjects to advanced standards.” Raised by her grandparents who frequently traveled, Virginia boarded at Rowland Hall until she graduated in 1934. Strict rules and an inflexible schedule of school bells governed school life. Each day, Virginia wore the same uniform: black-and-white Oxford shoes, a gray skirt, a white shirt with a Peter Pan collar, and never an ounce of makeup. She filled her time writing for the school paper and literary magazine and performing in the plays. For Virginia, Rowland Hall was like a second home. She enjoyed it, and though she didn’t know it at the time, she was establishing a legacy that would last for four generations, and counting.

In 1941, Virginia married J.P. “Pat” Gibbons, the next-in-line president of Gibbons & Reed Co., a road-building company in Salt Lake City. Together, they had four children (Mike Gibbons ’60, Bill Gibbons ’63, Vicky Hoagland ’67, and Valli Durham ’69) whom they instinctively sent to Rowland Hall.

By 1956, because of Virginia’s school history and Pat’s involvement in the community, Pat accepted an invitation to join the first Board of Trustees at St. Mark’s School. He was part of the leadership that merged Rowland Hall with St. Mark’s School

in 1964, and gave generously to the school, eventually becoming a trustee emeritus in 1988.

In 1966, headmistress Betty Corr retired after 18 years.

Headmaster Tom Jackson later learned that the beloved Mrs. Corr had no retirement fund. Pat and Virginia stepped in, making a generous gift to the school that would ensure that Mrs. Corr received a healthy monthly stipend. Pat and Virginia’s second son, Bill Gibbons ’63, said his parents donated money to help fund Mrs. Corr’s retirement, and when she died, leftover funds went toward establishing a new scholarship. Thus the Pat and Virginia Gibbons Scholarship was created, and continues today as an endowed fund to annually assist a student in need.

Of the many students the scholarship has supported over the years, one received the Distinction in Service Award from Rowland Hall, an honor that would’ve surely brought pride to the late Gibbons couple. For Pat and Virginia, providing opportunities for children to thrive was deeply important, and their commitment to education showed in their service on multiple boards. Their children have carried on that commitment: they took the reigns of the Gibbons Family Foundation in 1989, just prior to Pat’s and Virginia’s passing. “Our parents were dedicated to their community, offering both time and financial contributions,” son Bill ’63 said. “It was something that we [children] all saw and learned by example.”

Over the years, Bill, Mike, Vicky, and Valli have all honored their parents’ legacy through financial support to their parents’ scholarship and the Annual Fund, and service on the school board. They also sent their children to the school—in the late ’80s and early ’90s, five of Virginia and Pat’s grandchildren attended Rowland Hall: Mike’s son Jim Gibbons ’92 and Matt Gibbons; Bill’s kids Patrick Gibbons ’93 and Tracy Gibbons ’96; and Vicky’s kids Noah Hoagland ’97 and Sadie Hoagland ’99 . Between those five Winged Lions, they

held titles such as musician, athlete, yearbook editor, member of the German Club and Amnesty International, and even “most talented.”

Unsurprisingly, Virginia and Pat’s legacy lives on today in great numbers. Three of their four children are now grandparents at Rowland Hall, three of their grandchildren are current parents of lower schoolers, and seven of their great-grandchildren attend Rowland Hall: Ella (fourth grade), Sam (second grade), and Quinn Hoagland (4PreK); Sarah (fourth grade) and Jack Gibbons (second grade); and Lucas (kindergarten) and Miles Durham (3PreK).

“I can’t even imagine the Salt Lake Valley not having Rowland Hall in it,” Bill said. “I love that my grandkids are so excited about their education. I don’t remember ever being that excited about my education.”

His son Patrick ’93 agrees. “I look at the things my children are learning and am in awe of the curriculum, the academics, and the things they know about plants and the planets, for example,” he said.

“The subjects they study are so developed at Rowland Hall.” Bill nodded in agreement. “To see how the school does things now and to see the direction it is going...it is a good cause, so that’s why we continue to give every year,” the elder Gibbons said.

Patrick continued his father’s thought: “I can’t imagine how my life would be different if my grandmother hadn’t attended Rowland Hall.

It’s like the butterfly effect,” he said. “There’s also a reasonable chance that we would have ended up here even if my grandmother hadn’t gone here because of the Rowland Hall community and rigorous academics.”

Though much has changed since Virginia Lamborne stepped foot on the Avenues Campus almost 100 years ago—the school’s location, name, dress code, and enrollment—the legacy that Virginia began, and the traditions of friendship and service that she and her husband modeled, remain constant a century later.

Alumni Senior Breakfast Each year, Rowland Hall’s Alumni Association celebrates graduating seniors by officially welcoming them to the organization at the annual Alumni Association Senior Breakfast in May. Dave Stockham ’91 was the honored speaker and welcomed the seniors to the Alumni Association by encouraging the graduates to define their futures: “Define what you want, and then ask for what you want. If you don’t find it where you are, create it.”

Dave appealed to the soon-to-be graduates with a mix of humor, anecdotes, and hope, and emphasized that they all have the power to shape their own futures. He encouraged the graduates to define what they want and write it down, whether it is a list of things to accomplish in one day—with a nod to Ferris Bueller’s infamous day off in Chicago—or the outline of a five-year plan. He championed self-fulfillment through adventure and hard work. Dave told the seniors that while ideas aren’t rare, people who put in the effort to develop their ideas are extremely rare, and he believed everyone in the room was capable of being one of those people. He advocated collaboration and networking—especially within the Rowland Hall community—and stressed that perfectionism can be defeating.

Dave Stockham ’91

The young entrepreneurs, engineers, artists, and scientists in the room, along with those who don’t yet know what they want to do, could all glean something from Dave’s speech. He acknowledged that while defining what you want can be difficult, life is also meant to be fun. “Life is better than you can plan,” Dave said in closing. So as the class of 2017 heads out into the world and makes lists of things they want to accomplish—and Dave said he hopes those lists include tackling global warming and gender disparity in the workplace—these young graduates can expect a few surprises and detours along the way.

Dave is currently the vice president of sales at Cotopaxi, an outdoor retail company focused on creating sustainable products while helping to alleviate poverty worldwide. He is a member of Rowland Hall’s Entrepreneur's Circle and a proud father of three.

Director of Alumni Relations, Hilary Amoss Gibbons ’96 Hilary is proud to assume the position of director of alumni relations at Rowland Hall. A Salt Lake City native and Rowland Hall graduate, she started volunteering on Rowland Hall’s Alumni Committee in 2009 and joined the Advancement Department in 2012. Her knowledge of the school’s culture, traditions, and community bring experience and enthusiasm to the position.

Hilary is excited to increase alumni involvement, strengthen the alumni community, and celebrate the ways Rowland Hall has influenced and enriched alumni lives.

Hilary and her brother, John ’98, are second-generation Rowland Hall alumni. Their father, Steve Amoss ’65, attended along with Hilary’s uncles, Lindsay ’67, Dee ’73, and John ’74. Hilary married Patrick Gibbons ’93, whose family also has a long tradition at the school. Between their families, there are 16 graduates and a total of 25 who attended the school. Hilary and Patrick have two children at the school: Sarah (fourth grade) and Jack (second grade).

Whether it’s a leadership role on the Alumni Executive Board, serving as a class liaison, chairing your reunion, attending an alumni event, visiting campus, sharing your story, or supporting the school, we would love to hear from you!

ANNOUNCING AN ALL-CLASS REUNION! In conjunction with the school's sesquicentennial celebration, we are celebrating all graduates at an all-class reunion 6 pm Friday, September 8. Reconnect with old friends and current and former faculty, tour the Lincoln Street Campus, and get down with music from the years gone by. Whether you’re celebrating 25 years, 50 years, or even seven years, we would love to see you there!

230 alumni gave back to Rowland Hall with a gift to the school.

At both reunions, classmates gave out hugs, laughed about old times, and caught up on life since Rowland Hall.

Two tailgates for University of Utah football. We had our largest tailgate gathering on record and even had alumni from out of town join us before the game.

13 alumni played in the annual alumni men’s basketball game. As

usual, it was a close and hard-fought game between the green team and the white team, but in the end the “young guys” bested their older counterparts. Don’t worry guys, there’s always next year!

25 alumnae participated in our second-annual alumni women’s

volleyball game. Along with beloved coaches Kendra Tomsic and Kathy Howa, these women had a great time catching up and playing together and impressed everyone with their serving and spiking skills.

13 alumni played in the annual alumni men’s basketball game. As

usual, it was a close and hard-fought game between the green team and the white team, but in the end the “young guys” bested their older counterparts. Don’t worry guys, there’s always next year!

25 alumnae participated in our second-annual alumni women’s

volleyball game. Along with beloved coaches Kendra Tomsic and Kathy Howa, these women had a great time catching up and playing together and impressed everyone with their serving and spiking skills.
