A Message from our Head of School
By Charlotte S. Riggs
Dear St. James Academy Community,
I hope this edition of The Tower Times finds you and your families well and thriving. This year, we are thrilled to welcome 410 students to campus! The energy and enthusiasm from our students, faculty, staff, and families have been inspiring as we embrace another year of learning, growth, and community.
At St. James, students are the heartbeat of everything we do.

Our commitment to their well-being, development, and success drives every effort. This student-centered approach is more than a philosophy—it’s the foundation of our mission. We are passionate about nurturing each student’s unique talents and providing the support and resources they need to thrive. By fostering a strong sense of community, we create an environment where every student can flourish and reach their full potential.
Central to our mission is integrating the pillars of our Episcopal faith into all aspects of school life. Through service, compassion, and a commitment to lifelong learning, we strive to instill in our students the values that will guide them in their journey beyond our campus.
I am also pleased to share the accomplishments of our alumni. Their successes serve as a testament to the transformative power of a St. James education. From leaders in their fields, to compassionate advocates for change, our alumni continue to make a positive impact on the world around them.
As we look to the future, I am excited to announce that we are underway with the next phase of our capital campaign, Unleash Potential: A Campaign for St. James Academy.
I am especially excited to share that this next phase will allow us to expand the Ben Brandenburg Middle School Wing with a two-story addition. This new wing will house a state-of-the-art technology and innovation lab and a beautiful, light-filled art studio. Furthermore, we will create a dedicated Middle School commons and will be able to transform the existing spaces so they are not only classrooms, but environments that foster curiosity and determination. In this new phase of the campaign, we look forward to completing our renovated Lower School gathering space so that students in our elementary school have their own dynamic learning and socializing space.
Together, we have the opportunity to shape the future of SJA and ensure that our students have access to the resources and opportunities they need to excel. In the ever-changing landscape of education, we must remain committed to innovation and excellence in both our pedagogy and our learning environments. As a community, we can empower our students to grow, flourish, and thrive in a world full of endless possibilities.
Thank you for your unwavering support and dedication to the philosophy and mission of St. James Academy.
I extend an enthusiastic invitation for you to participate in the excitement as we lay the groundwork for the next stage of our campaign.
Warm regards,
Charlotte S. Riggs Head of School
St. James Academy
Inspiring Spaces for Inspired Minds
Each year, as a new school year arrives, so does the chance to reconnect with the admissions teams of Baltimore’s independent high schools. These conversations are more than updates—they are an annual tradition of celebrating the accomplishments of St. James Academy students and catching up on our alumni now attending these schools. Listening to how our alumni are remembered is always inspiring. Time and again, they are described with words like curious, innovative, collaborative, creative, ambitious, and empathetic.
About three years ago, I found myself thinking about the ways our middle school program could grow to match the caliber of our students. SJA’s commitment to a preschool through grade 8 model with a distinct middle school division has been foundational, but I wondered: what if our middle school spaces evolved to reflect the independence, ambition, and creativity of our students?
I wanted to create a uniquely Middle School environment that allowed students to feel part of the community and recognized in their need for independence, plus their need to create a subculture that did not categorize them as older elementary school students.
I shared my thoughts with Ms. Riggs, who enthusiastically supported presenting the idea to our Board of Trustees. The Board’s response was equally positive, leading us to initiate the Campus Master Plan, a blueprint for facilities that echo and elevate our educational values.
Often, when I tour other campuses, I am told how the facility impacts the strength of a program.
It gives me a great sense of pride to know that at SJA the program is truly the driver of success. Facilities to mirror the program would be value-added.
My vision began to come to life with the unveiling of renderings. Designed by a talented team of architects and the Campus Master Plan Committee, these spaces have since evolved to push our imaginations and resources further to better serve our students.
The Ben Brandenburg Middle School Wing includes a dedicated entrance near Mac Hall, a welcoming lobby, and a split-level layout that divides Humanities and STEAM classrooms. The addition of flexible common areas and an Art Studio with a Maker Space Lab will give students a platform to explore, create, and innovate. These spaces are not just classrooms, they are also environments where curiosity and creativity thrive.
The decision to name the wing in honor of alum Ben Brandenburg couldn’t be more fitting. His legacy aligns seamlessly with the qualities we see in our students and alumni today—curiosity, empathy, ambition, and innovation.
With your support, this vision will become a reality, and we look forward to seeing our students continue to grow and excel in spaces designed just for them. Thank you for being a part of this journey.

Nurturing Young Talents at St. James Academy through the Young Foxhounds Program
Questions answered by Kelly Gonce
At St. James Academy, nurturing growth, leadership, and personal development in every student is central to our mission.
We sat down with Director Kelly Gonce to learn more about the program’s impact and its future.
Now in its fourth year, the Young Foxhounds Program has become a vital part of this vision, engaging our youngest learners— students as young as 2 and 3 years old.
Thanks to a newly dedicated space funded by Phase One of Unleash Potential: A Campaign for St. James Academy the program now provides even more opportunities for students to explore their passions, develop their talents, and form lasting friendships. This renovated space reflects St. James Academy’s investment in shaping the next generation of leaders, ensuring that even our youngest students have the resources they need to thrive.
Since its inception in 2021, the Young Foxhounds program has not only grown in size but also in impact. “Our parents and community have been instrumental in making this happen,” says Director Kelly Gonce. “Their support through the Unleash Potential campaign has been invaluable. We are already seeing the difference. In our new location, students are more curious, engaged, and enjoying the extra space to stretch and explore their surroundings.”
How has the new space, funded by the Unleash Potential campaign, enhanced the Young Foxhounds Program?
The new space has provided much-needed room for exploration and creativity, giving students the freedom to fully engage in hands-on learning and discovery. This dedicated environment stimulates curiosity, allowing students to tap into their interests and talents confidently in a nurturing setting. Our new location on campus also allows more opportunities to enjoy and explore SJA’s outdoor classroom.
What inspired the Young Foxhounds program and how has it evolved over the past four years?
The Young Foxhounds program was inspired by St. James Academy’s commitment to encourage leadership and personal growth from an early age. Our goal is to empower the youngest learners in the community, laying a strong foundation for their future academic journey.
Since its launch in 2021, the program has grown both in size and scope, which has allowed us to offer a wider range of activities that cater to individual student interests and abilities.
How does the program cater to a variety of student interests and abilities?
The Young Foxhounds program is designed to be flexible, allowing each child to thrive in a supportive environment. Teachers carefully observe each child’s interest and tailor the activities to ensure every student engages with experiences such as nature, exploration, creative arts, and physical activities.
Can you share a specific success story or moment that stands out from the last few years?
There is incredible growth and “aha moments” happening all around us everyday in the classrooms. There is nothing better than watching a student continually try to master a new skill or seeing concepts click in a child’s mind. These moments are celebrated and are as rewarding as they are frequent.
Equally special are the genuine friendships and bonds that form between students—with both their peers and older students. Some of my favorite moments of success are when our Young Foxhounds connect with the entire school community, whether it’s walking to all-school chapel with Middle School student helpers, shopping at Jingle Bell Junction, or participating in Field Day.
What are the long-term goals for the program as it continues to grow?
The long-term goal for the Young Foxhounds program is to continue strengthening its impact here at St. James Academy. As the program grows, a main goal would be to further integrate elements that encourage creativity, critical thinking, and social skills. We are helping students build a solid foundation from an early age, preparing them for future academic challenges while nurturing their unique strengths and talents.
What role does the program play in advancing the overall mission of St. James Academy?
The Young Foxhounds program aligns directly with St. James Academy’s mission to nurture the whole child. By offering a space where students can explore their passions, develop skills, and build relationships, the program contributes to the Academy’s focus on fostering confident, compassionate, and curious learners who are well-prepared for the years ahead.
How do you see the continued support of the Unleash Potential campaign influencing the program’s future?
The continued support of the Unleash Potential campaign is essential for the future growth of the Young Foxhounds program. This support ensures that the program can adapt to meet the future needs of students while continuing to provide the best possible learning environment, enabling our young learners to reach their full potential.
DR.
LUCIE PENTZ: CHAMPION OF CHILD WELLNESS
St. James Academy’s child psychologist has dedicated her career to promoting children’s wellness.
Every day, Dr. Lucie Pentz plays a pivotal role in student well-being. Her initiatives have been instrumental in creating a supportive and nurturing environment where St. James Academy students can thrive both academically and socially. You can typically find her playing her ukulele during Morning Meeting, teaching Dynamic Discoveries, crocheting with students during snack time, having fun lunches with students, or meeting with teachers and parents to talk about supporting our students.
Here’s our Q&A with Dr. Pentz:
As an educator, how do you see wellness as a priority for students?
Healthy social-emotional functioning can be compared to an optimally working background operating system on a computer. It is not something you spend much time contemplating unless there is a change, disruption, or glitch that needs your attention. In the same way, our well-being is comprised of all those little habits, lifestyle choices, and other factors that contribute to our wellness. For that reason, prevention through intentionally holistic wellness is much more effective than the need for intervention when things have veered off course. Our goal at SJA is to provide an environment in which wellness is an integral part of our educational experience by instilling and cultivating daily practices (e.g., mindfulness, relaxation, calming) to promote emotional flourishing.
What’s the difference between wellness and happiness?
Happiness is a subjective, fleeting state. Happiness happens to you, whereas wellness is a journey you undertake intentionally, one step at a time. A person who is well is somebody whose life has internal consistency, equilibrium, and inner harmony.
What does it mean for a child to thrive?
Thriving children are well-balanced children. Each dimension of their identity is symmetrically well-developed. They enjoy the process of learning and the quest for knowledge. They are developing socially by fostering friendships and blossoming within the community context. They are becoming contributing citizens with a sharp moral compass and respect for authority. We can’t forget the importance of developing talents, hobbies, and abilities. Finding one’s niche— the special that brings them satisfaction and pleasure— is crucial.
How do you bring wellness to our students?
I do Morning Meetings, check-ins with our students, fun lunch or snack, teach a few classes, and respond to our students’ needs through individual, small peer group, or classroom meetings. Most importantly, there’s the “behind-the-scenes” work of collaborating with teachers and parents to set up our children for success. My goal is to prepare our students to do well in school, friendships, and life in general.
“My goal is to prepare our students to do well in school, in friendships, and life in general.”
What are your own wellness practices?
The cornerstone of my own personal wellness is my morning routine. Most mornings include walking, Centering Prayer, Bible reading, and journaling (and coffee, of course). Last year, I started to use the “Morning Protocol” by Dr. Huberman, which is very simple but powerful. Every morning I list five things I am grateful for, plans for the day, fears/ worries/resentments, things to strive for, and things to stay away from. I highly recommend it!
How would a person design their own wellness prescription?
A good place to start is crafting your own personal mission statement that captures who you want to be, what you want to focus on, and the legacy that you want to leave behind. I have a few core “encouragements” that I remind myself of constantly. You don’t have to do it all and don’t need to be good all the time, but you do need to be consistently good (80% rule). Being consistent, not perfect, is really important in building any habit.
Empowering Compassionate Leaders
Our “Everyday Leader” philosophy encourages students to take appropriate risks, grow in responsibility, and embrace leadership in ways that suit their unique strengths.
Whether guiding their peers, serving their community, or stepping up in school-wide roles like Student Council or Vestry, students at every grade level find opportunities to lead.
Service in Action
For us, service is not just an act—it’s a part of our identity, rooted in our Episcopal values. Through ongoing partnerships with organizations like Paul’s Place, Hereford Food Bank, and First Fruits Farm, students engage in meaningful service experiences that connect them to the broader community. These moments of giving foster compassion and shape students into leaders who understand the importance of serving others.
Leadership through the Buddy Program
One of the most powerful examples of leadership at St. James is our buddy program. Older students are paired with younger ones, taking on the responsibility of mentorship. Ms. Riggs, Head of School, shares, “This program allows our older students to embrace their role as leaders, not just by offering help, but also by modeling the behavior we want to see in future leaders— confidence, empathy, and responsibility.”
The buddy program nurtures leadership in a unique way. Older students develop critical skills like patience and effective communication, while younger students gain a sense of belonging and support.
It’s a mutually enriching experience that strengthens the bonds of our school community.
The Leadership Impact
As older students step into these roles, they’re not just practicing leadership—they’re living it. In the process, they learn to be role models, to foster confidence in others, and to demonstrate what it means to be a compassionate leader. Younger students, in turn, feel empowered and supported, learning the value of leadership and community from a trusted friend.
A Mission-Driven Approach to Leadership
The buddy program is more than just a tradition at St. James—it’s a reflection of our mission. As Ms. Riggs highlights, “Our buddy system goes beyond academics, nurturing leadership that is compassionate, empathetic, and rooted in service.” By aligning with our core values, the program builds a community where leadership is woven into everyday actions.
Episcopal Identity and Leadership
As an Episcopal school, St. James is shaped by faith, service, and community. Ms. Riggs emphasizes, “Leadership at St. James is intertwined with our faith. Programs like the buddy system and our service learning reflect our Episcopal identity by creating opportunities for students to practice their faith through action.”
Whether it’s leading in the classroom or serving in the community, students are empowered to live out the values of service, integrity, and responsibility.
In every classroom, on every playground, and through every community initiative, St. James Academy is nurturing everyday leaders—students who are ready to make a positive impact on the world and lead with compassion, empathy, and purpose.
A Legacy of love for St. James Academy
A conversation with Alissa Poggi, ’03
For Alissa Poggi, St. James Academy is more than just a school—it’s a place that has shaped her life and now the lives of her three children. As an alumna, current parent, and President of the Parents’ Association, Alissa’s connection to the Academy runs deep.
We sat down with Alissa to discuss her ongoing involvement, why she chose St. James for her children, and what makes the school so special.
A Lifelong Commitment to St. James
Alissa’s journey with St. James began when she was a student, and now, with her three boys enrolled, her passion for the school is stronger than ever. When asked why she stays so involved, she enthusiastically shared, “I love being involved at SJA! My three boys go there, so it’s really fun to give back to the school that’s helping shape them into the young men they will become. Not to mention, I love what the school and the SJA community stand for, so it’s extra rewarding to pour my energy into such a special place. It truly is so fulfilling to volunteer my time here!” Her dedication is clear, and as President of the Parents’ Association, she works to strengthen the community she cherishes.
Choosing
St. James for Her Children
When it came time to choose a school for her children, the decision was an easy one. “It wasn’t even a question,” Alissa said. “We didn’t apply anywhere other than St. James. I’m an alum, and I absolutely loved my time being a student there. It was so magical and wholesome, and I was determined to give my boys the same educational experience that I was so fortunate to have.”
For Alissa, the decision went beyond academics; it was about ensuring her children would be part of a community that values the whole child—spiritually, emotionally, and socially. “SJA is one of a kind, and I’m honored to be serving the community there,” she added, showing just how much the school means to her and her family.
What’s Changed and What’s Stayed the Same
Reflecting on her time as a student, Alissa finds comfort in knowing that the core of St. James remains the same. “The main thing that has stayed the same is the essence of the school. It truly feels like one giant family,” she said. “The community is unlike anything I’ve experienced anywhere else. Everyone is so kind and happy to be a part of SJA. You get such a warm and cozy feeling being there.”
But she also appreciates the ways the school has evolved. “One of the best changes since I’ve been there is the addition of the Young Foxhounds program. My boys are so lucky to be able to experience the magic of SJA for even longer than I did!” Alissa sees these updates as part of the Academy’s commitment to fostering a dynamic learning environment.
Why She Loves St. James
When asked what she loves most about St. James, Alissa didn’t hesitate. “The energy. The feeling you get when you’re there. The community, the parents, the faculty and staff, the traditions ... all of those things combined create this magical atmosphere where people truly feel loved, accepted, and part of something great.”
Alissa’s love for the Academy, both as a parent and an alum, is a testament to the lasting impact of St. James Academy. Her story reflects a deep commitment to a school that has shaped her family and continues to inspire future generations.
Checking in with Our Alumni
Bryan Babcock, ’00, says, “Since serving as the 2000 Student Council Historian, I’ve remained in the academic world. I recently accepted a role as Video Director for Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS-TV), where I produce digital content for students, parents, staff, and the community of Montgomery County.
Additionally, I’m an adjunct professor for the Department of Communication and Media at Loyola University, Maryland, and serve as an adjunct professor and mentor for their Emerging Media Master's Program. Alongside my academic career, I own a video production company, Mason Dixon Media, where I help clients with storytelling, digital media solutions, and social media strategy.”
where I had the opportunity to discuss agriculture and all things related to dairy farming. I have been blessed with the opportunity to move into my own 80-acre farm in Freeland, Maryland, and re-build the farm operation, bringing dairy cows back into Baltimore County where only three commercial dairy operations currently reside. The number of small family farms declines every year and my goal is to raise awareness to many aspects of farm life that you may not be aware of. Through a Livestock lease program (rent or adopt a cow!), farm tours, and monthly classes held at the Wilson Dairy Farm, I plan to strengthen the community's knowledge, appreciation and understanding of the dairy industry to the best of my ability.
April Roberts, ’12, moved to Paris where she is studying for a Master’s in Communications, Media and Creative Industries at Sciences Po. Before her move, she spent four years working in the publishing industry in New York at companies like HarperCollins and Chronicle Books.

Currently, he dedicates much of his time traveling day after day, from northern Baltimore County to the southwest corner of Frederick County, to work towards providing information concerning and fighting the Piedmont Reliability Project now threatening eminent domain in Northern Baltimore County. With the time he has left, he studies power transmission, trying to educate himself to combat what is happening to the place he loves.
Haley Wilson, ’10, reports: “During my time as a student, my family often provided agriculture experiences to the student body
I have fond memories of speaking to my classmates about my animals, 4-H projects, and daily life on the farm during the field trips through SJA to our working operation on Lentz Road. I enjoyed growing up on the farm and would love to give some of those same opportunities and memories to today's youth in Baltimore County.”

Patrick Heffernan, ’16, writes: “After graduating from Embry-Riddle this past spring, I transitioned to working as a full-time flight instructor at the university. Working as a flight instructor allows me to grow as a pilot and helps me build my hours to meet the requirements to join the airline industry. I will be forever grateful to St. James Academy because it helped develop essential skills I utilize daily as a pilot, such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication.”
