Milestones
10 Years
5 Years Each of our five-year employees has begun to leave their mark on Shore Country Day School in their own way. We appreciate their special dedication and commitment to our students day in and day out. These employees are now a part of our foundation—the foundation of learning. We congratulate them on reaching this important milestone. • Alex Asacker Lower School music teacher • Amanda Berg Grade 5 teacher • Brooke Booth Director of Annual Giving • Manny Brito Spanish teacher
Sarah Sklarsky Upper School history teacher Mary Kinahan Grade 1 teacher Mary has the ability to redirect a child in a way that not only preserves their dignity, but also builds their confidence. She sees each child through the lens of possibility. The result is pure magic in the classroom.
• Monique Clark Assistant to Head of Lower School
While Sarah demonstrates and effectively models precision, she is always one to see a student’s ability to improve. Sarah is often the person advocating for the underdog. This makes her truly approachable, whether it be in the classroom or during track practice.

Gretchen Bowder Spanish teacher Gretchen leads with compassion for her students. She sends a message that she is willing to meet them where they are and take them where they can go.
