BRIDGE

A WORD FROM BRIAN CASE Within the course of a year, every great institution encounters moments that expand the imaginations and the expectations of its community. Some years it may include a state championship or a phenomenal performance, while other years might highlight a tender moment where a student and teacher break through to realize untapped potential.

For all those who dared to dream; drew up plans; orchestrated the building; adjusted schedules; reworked budgets; set timelines; taught and mentored amid construction and who prayed and supported the process, completing Knox Hall will be one of those big moments this year. All this labor will soon be realized in the opening of this building in the next few months.

To the members of our Westminster community, I say, “WELL DONE!” Westminster Schools of Augusta is truly living out the mission of equipping students for extraordinary lives as we experience a transformative period of growth and expansion. What a wonderful time to be part of establishing new traditions and offerings while remaining faithful to our core calling of providing an excellent college-preparatory education with a biblical worldview.

L E A R NING FOR LIF E

THE 2016-17 STUDENT LEADERSHIP TEAM WITH THIS YEAR'S SCHOOL THEME BANNER.

We thank our heavenly Father for the good gifts he has provided through a prayerful community, and we look forward to sharing these blessings with generations to come. I am amazed at how God uses humble people to do his work, and how we are so blessed to participate in the glory of his plans.

and the varsity basketball teams are off to an amazing start, winning their first tournament and competing well against local public and private schools. The Fine Arts Department celebrated a One-Act Play State Championship and introduced a Madrigal Dinner to usher in the Christmas season.

The addition of Knox Hall clearly marks progress for Westminster as we enlarge and enhance the learning environment.

The new building stands beautifully positioned in the heart of the Middle and Upper School campus, replacing the old 300 or A Building and serving as a multipurpose area that blends traditional and 21st century learning. The structure represents growth and development for Westminster as a whole, while encouraging a community of lifelong learners to collaborate together in order to live out the important mission of preparing students for college and for life.

As we continue to “Seek Light and Be Light” in the Augusta community and beyond, we invite you to join us in the work. You can do so by visiting campus, sharing a story about your days at Westminster or giving a gift to this year’s Westminster Fund. Each of these contributions help us continue the great work God has started as we prepare students to live extraordinary lives for Jesus Christ.

While Westminster remains committed to providing students intellectual coursework that prepares them for college, our students are also challenged spiritually through weekly chapel and advisory groups, and physically, mentally and socially, through growing athletic and fine arts programs.

Blessings,

Brian Case Interim Head of School

LEARNING FOR LIFE

NEURONET:

LEARNING BEYOND THE DESK Why is active learning so important in early grades education?

Research shows that active learning is critical for the development of needed brain pathways that support long-term academic, social and emotional success. In short, young children learn best by doing – a practice that Westminster Schools of Augusta has long embraced.

Westminster addresses the developmental needs of its youngest students by offering Prekindergarten 3 (PK3), Prekindergarten 4 (PK4) and a Transitional Kindergarten (TK), geared towards older 4-year-olds and younger 5-year-olds.

These early childhood students engage in multisensory and innovative practices designed to build the foundation needed for future learning.

In 2016, Westminster implemented, NeuroNet Learning, a new program that incorporates whole-body movement to help children develop mental and

4 | WINDOWS - SPRING 2017

physical skills. NeuroNet is currently used in grades PK4-Kindergarten, with the anticipation of adding first grade next year and second grade the following year.

4. Self-evaluation is the key to motivation Learn to self-evaluate and to equate effort and practice with improvements in performance.

So what exactly is NeuroNet? NeuroNet is a research-based learning readiness program designed to help students develop skills in essential knowledge such as reading, math and handwriting. Developed by Audiologist Nancy Rowe, NeuroNet was initially created to help students having a difficult time developing the ability to learn independently. Eventually, it grew into a holistic program for all early education students. NeuroNet programs center around four key concepts.

1. Learn independently Watch and learn; then think and do.

Engage in productive trial-and-error problem solving.

2. Make the speed and accuracy network [together] Develop fluency in early reading, handwriting and math skills. Learn how to use what you know to enhance new learning.

3. Get your brain to practice what you want your brain to learn To develop fluency, you must practice fluency.

What does NeuroNet look like in the classroom?

Teachers set up NeuroNet’s software through a desktop app and run the program on a SMARTboard. As soon as the session begins, students are instructed to prepare by gathering their materials, stools and towels, and finding their spot on the floor. Westminster’s Transitional Kindergarten teacher, Debbie Corbin, believes the initial preparation for the session is essential to get students in the right mindset. “An important factor of NeuroNet is teaching young children how to follow instructions,” says Corbin.

“Learning to listen to instructions and concentrate on following them really helps my class focus.”

Each section of movement within a NeuroNet session incorporates fun rhythm and direct teaching components to help students differentiate between left and right. As part of their preparation, students remove one shoe to easily recognize their left and right sides.

Next, students prepare small stools to practice balance and their ability to follow directions by mimicking movement shown

L EARN IN G F O R LI F E

shoulders. “This increases the success of young children learning to write neatly and copy letters correctly.”

After the presentation of NeuroNet, Westminster teachers spent a full day in training to learn how to implement the program. Not only are the teachers able to see physical improvements in their classrooms, but NeuroNet provides a built-in assessment program to track growth. Three times a year each student takes an individual assessment on an iPad to test skills in colors, numbers, letters, beginning sounds and rhyming with pacing. A baseline score is established in August, then revisited in December and May. Results are then graphed to show student growth. on the SMARTboard, as well as listening to audio instructions. They are required to step on and off the stool, turn around, clap with rhythm and repeat directions out loud.

Each week and each level of NeuroNet becomes a little more challenging as time progresses. For example, the class may turn around and focus on listening to audio instructions only, or the audio may be turned off and students concentrate on visual cues and movements on the screen. Additionally, the character on the screen students follow may say every word one week, then leave out words the next week to challenge students’ memory.

A single session lasts about 20 minutes.

Completion of a level takes about two weeks and the class receives positive feedback in the form of earning a virtual badge for each completed level.

In addition to earning badges, students also receive immediate feedback at the end of each session through checkmarks.

“Classes earn a red, yellow or green checkmark to show them how they did that day,” explains Corbin. “Green is the best mark, followed by yellow, then red.”

Every minute of NeuroNet helps improve memory, fluency, problem-solving and essential motor skills.

Once children are finished with the initial movement portion, the session continues with learning activities in counting, rhyming, fast retrieval of math facts and

L E A R NING FOR LIF E

naming of letters, pictures and numbers.

These daily activities strengthen students’ abilities to hear sounds in words, solve problems independently, read and perform math operations quickly and easily.

Why use NeuroNet? In addition to several peer-reviewed articles and empirical results from NeuroNet’s research, many of Westminster’s early education teachers experienced first-hand results in their classrooms.

“NeuroNet was presented to the early childhood department last year as a possible addition to our curriculum.

After spending the morning watching an interactive presentation with our TK students, we absolutely loved what we saw!,” said Westminster Kindergarten teacher Janice Esposito. “Each child was engaged. Each child learned to watch, listen and make corrections on his own.

Best of all, each child was receiving benefits from the program.”

Along with improvement in students’ abilities to memorize and listen to instructions, many teachers have also seen positive physical changes in their classes.

“Better arm strength leads to an improvement in fine motor skills," says Prekindergarten 4 teacher Caroline Whitcomb. She also talks about improvements in her students’ balance and muscle strength in the arms and

FACULTY FOCUS: KENDRA SUE (O’NEILL) FINCH (’94)

BY HALEY BARINOWSKI (’12) “Westminster graduates understand the times and know what they should do.”

In no uncertain terms, the first sentence of Westminster Schools of Augusta’s “Portrait of a Graduate” highlights cultural awareness as a crucial aspect of education at WSA. This idea was modeled after specific members of the nation of Israel in the Old Testament, whom 1 Chronicles 12 describes as “men who understood the times and knew what Israel should do.”

Since ancient times, wisdom has carried with it the nuances of being informed, involved, and relevant, and Westminster’s goals for alumni are no different.

Westminster graduates seek Jesus Christ and follow his lead, according to the “Portrait.” With Christian minds they critically think about the world in which they live and work. They serve and influence their community and the world.

In 2017, graduates would be hardpressed to “understand the times” without some familiarity with technology.

In a world where four of the top five Fortune 500 companies in 2016 are technology based, technology is no longer an accessory — it is a necessity. As society races forward, creating and adapting to new technologies every day, Westminster is adjusting its curriculum as well, and much of the recent progress stems from the efforts of Technology Integration and Innovation Coordinator Kendra Sue Finch.

to further the mission of the school and the Kingdom of God. “My goal is that Westminster students will use technology to make an impact in the world around them for the sake of Christ.”

Mrs. Finch is no stranger to the Westminster community. She is a member of the class of 1994, but she only recently returned to her alma mater.

Before she discovered her love for technology, her education revolved around Spanish. During her undergraduate years at Augusta University, she lived in Mexico for a year with a family who spoke no English and later studied abroad in Spain during her final year of college, taking three classes as a part of that trip. She earned her Spanish degree from Augusta University in 2000.

Following graduation, she began teaching Spanish in Atlanta, where she has spent the majority of her career to date.

“Throughout the 15 years that I spent teaching in Atlanta, I had the privilege of teaching in two of the most highlyregarded private schools in the state of Georgia, Wesleyan School (in Jones Mrs. Finch has a dynamic and passionate Creek, Georgia) and The Lovett School in vision for Westminster’s progress, desiring Atlanta,” she said. “Both of those schools to see technology used as another recourse prepared me to lead at Westminster, as I

6 | WINDOWS - SPRING 2017

had so many opportunities to learn from some of the best school leaders in the country.”

High expectations at both Wesleyan and Lovett pushed Mrs. Finch to be creative in the ways that she challenged her students to learn. As a result, she began to incorporate more technology in her classroom.

“As I learned to let my students have more freedom in the classroom, I began to see a huge change in their level of engagement and in the quality of their work,” she said.

“When my students could demonstrate their knowledge about a subject through means other than tests and quizzes (projects, design thinking units, providing creative solutions to problems), I realized that they were demonstrating higher levels of thinking skills and were working at a much higher level when I let them create to demonstrate their knowledge than they were when I asked them to take tests to assess their knowledge.”

While facilitating the growth of her students, Mrs. Finch also experienced personal growth. During her time at The Lovett School, she benefitted from the mentorship of the Director of Strategic

L EARN IN G F O R LI F E

Innovation, who encouraged her interest in technology and its role in education.

As that interest grew, she furthered her education, earning her master’s degree from Kennesaw State University in Educational Leadership with a concentration in Technology Integration.

The expertise she gained in that program allowed her to step into training roles at her current school — and also laid the groundwork for her to reestablish her connection with Westminster.

While working with her fellow teachers in Atlanta to integrate more technology into the classroom, she reached out with an offer to share what she had learned with teachers at WSA. She had no intention of leaving The Lovett School at that time, but Westminster eventually offered Mrs. Finch the position she now holds.

In addition to her role as Technology Integration and Innovation Coordinator, Mrs. Finch teaches Spanish at Westminster. Furthermore, her involvement in student life reveals her enthusiasm for developing her students in areas beyond the classroom. She serves as head cheerleading coach and also as Junior Class Dean, a position responsible for planning the annual Junior/Senior Prom for Westminster.

She uses technology to teach about technology itself and to introduce students to current events and worldwide phenomena.

For example, her Spanish 4 Honors curriculum required a section on medical vocabulary, but instead of simply assessing her students by giving standard vocabulary lists and tests, she used smallpox as a case study. The class examined the disease’s role as a biological weapon in the era of the Aztec empire and then looked at modern biological weapons and how they affect nations such as Syria today. The class covered everything from U.N. sanctions to international treaties to the refugee crisis, all for the purpose of studying Spanish medical vocabulary.

Having technology in the classroom made that kind of topical breadth possible.

L E A R NING FOR LIF E

Mrs. Finch’s technological endeavors at Westminster have led to other opportunities throughout the CSRA. After returning to Augusta, she reached out to Augusta University’s College of Education to stay up-to-date on what college students are learning about teaching methods.

The relationships she formed paved the way for her to have a voice in the educational community.

In the fall of 2016, she was invited to be one of only three speakers at a LASER (Leonardo Art Science Evening Rendezvous) event hosted by Augusta University.

“It was such a humbling honor to be invited to speak at the LASER talks about my first experience with design thinking and the impact that unit had on me as a teacher and on my students,” Mrs. Finch said.

After her debut at the LASER series, she has been selected to present on technology at the Impacting Student Learning Conference at Augusta University in spring 2017.

Even as she shares her expertise with other schools in the area, she continues to focus on improving the technological climate at Westminster.

Just this school year, Westminster has implemented one of her initiatives that provides teachers with technology training through six workshops that may be taken online or in person. Classroom resources have also become more readily available at Westminster because of her efforts.

This year, the Middle School received 25 new laptops for classroom activities, which teachers are using during

almost every class period of the day. A middle school cryptology club was also recently launched, offering students the opportunity to learn about coding and algorithms through application.

Mrs. Finch said that she looks forward to continuing to add technological resources to Westminster classrooms in hopes of teaching more students how to leverage them to make a broader impact on their world.

“I would like to see us become leaders in Augusta in the way we use technology,” she said.

“I want our students using technology to solve real-world problems and to develop empathy for people in the world who are hurting and struggling. I want our students to become engaged local and global citizens. I want them to champion the causes they believe in by using the voice that technology gives them — and that technology allows them to project their voice into the far corners of the earth.”

As Westminster works to prepare students for success after graduation, technology will continue to be an invaluable resource.

The Westminster community is fortunate to have a leader like Mrs. Finch, one who holds herself to the standard of “understanding the times” and who endeavors to utilize technology more effectively each year to broaden the minds of students. 

COMMUNITY CRAYON DRIVE TO BENEFIT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL In August, Middle and Upper School students held a Crayon Drive to benefit patients at the Children’s Hospital of Georgia. In order to protect patients and reduce the spread of germs in the hospital, crayons must be thrown away after every use, so a great quantity of crayons is needed. When the tally was finished, our students collected around 35,000 individual crayons! Student Leadership Team members Bryce Biggerstaff and Emily Miller delivered the crayons to the hospital.

Westminster dad Aaron Hasten visited the PK3 class on Nov. 3 and added a special touch to their learning about the letter “H” by teaching them about bees and honey. They also learned about being “h-elpers,” and how bees help everyone by pollinating flowers and making honey.

“My goal was for the children to make the connection between how he [Mr. Hasten] is a helper and how they can help by bringing in canned goods for the food drive this month,” said PK3 teacher Mrs. Pippin.

Dr. Carl led the class through the required training needed to obtain stream-monitoring certification for participating in the Adopt-A-Stream community volunteer program, which assists the Georgia Environmental Protection Division with monitoring water quality around the state. With certification in hand, the class will evaluate the water quality of Westminster’s creek on a monthly basis.

The data is posted to the state website.

Additionally, the training prepares the class for studies of a watershed in the Georgia mountains and one in the coastal plains.

MIDDLE SCHOOL OUTDOOR CLASSROOM SERVICE

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD The eighth-grade leaders kicked off an Operation Christmas Child shoebox drive with a chapel message focused on service.

Middle School students then brought in age- and gender-specific boxes of presents for children in need overseas. The Middle Schoolers collected nearly 100 boxes.

Some students in After School Care and some Lower School faculty members participated in a shoebox collection as well.

On Thursday of the 2016 Outdoor Classroom, the sixth-grade students volunteered for various nonprofit organizations in the Augusta area. After gathering for a devotion at school, students left campus to serve at one of the following locations: Goodwill, the Augusta Canal, Hope for Augusta and Brookdale Senior Living Home.

LOWER SCHOOL STUDENTS CARING FOR THEIR COMMUNITY During this season of Thanksgiving, our students learned about local hunger, and together collected 3,000 food and hygiene items for those in need in our community.

Concurrently, the fourth-grade students joined forces with Nest Ministries and packed 30 food bags to be distributed to students at A. Brian Merry Elementary and Tutt Middle schools. These bags went to children who would have otherwise not had food during the Thanksgiving break.

Our first alumnus trustee, Bert returns for his second term on the board as a member of the facilities committee. He looks forward to seeing his children grow up attending his alma mater. Bert enjoys serving on the board because it is a way for him to serve the Lord and the school as he participates in Westminster’s growth in regards to student enrollment, facility expansion and educational expansion.

Matt’s first-hand experience of the way the school’s Christ-centered mission impacts families led him to agree to serve on the board. All three of his children are current students. He is a member of the capital campaign committee, where he says he is excited to “help position Westminster to reach more families, and impact more children to lead exemplary lives for Christ. “

Valued relationships are what first led Gina and Jason to send their children to Westminster. While seeing the experience other families had at Westminster made the Adams’s initial schooling decision an easy one, it was Gina’s love for Westminster that compelled her to return to the board for a third term. She serves as Chairman of the Advancement Committee.

“I love the academic rigor, and I love Westminster's expectation of excellence academically, in the arts, and in the athletic arena. However, any of these done without a sense of purpose, and who we ultimately live for, is hope built on sinking sand,” he said. “The Wildcat Way, our athletic department's statement, is a beautiful example of this sentiment.

I want us to look different, and stand out, by our character resembling that of Jesus… I can see the school's vision for my child's success extends far beyond the report card of this term.”

Gina is grateful for the ways she sees Westminster impacting the lives of students and the greater Augusta community. “The school challenged my son, Joshua, academically, supported him spiritually and helped him develop the fine arts ability that he currently uses in his work with architecture,” she said. “I look forward to seeing how more Westminster graduates will impact the world in the years to come.” 

The culture of care and the way the school relates to the community at large are some of the things Bert appreciates about Westminster. The school’s mission is near to his heart. “We are the only school in the area that I know of that openly states they want to ‘glorify God by providing an excellent education to equip students to live extraordinary lives for Jesus Christ.'" He said, "I want to be part of that."

HEAR YE, HEAR YE! LET THE FEASTE BEGIN!

BY CAROLINE CAIN ('14)

In her first year as the Middle and Upper School Choral Director, Mrs. Lisa Wilson brought a new program to Westminster: the Madrigal Dinner. Schools and churches across the country have participated in this Renaissance-style dinner theatre for many years, and Mrs. Wilson believed it would be fun to establish it at Westminster as well. She, Vivian Hornsby and Paul Owen collaborated to bring the entire arts department together in order to make the event possible.

Although the madrigal has been around for hundreds of years, many people today do not know what it means. In short, the term madrigal refers to a genre of music that originated in 16th-century Italy and eventually spread to England. Usually three to six independent voice parts were combined to perform without written accompaniment at social gatherings, after meals and at academic meetings, simply for enjoyment. Lyrics were typically based on secular texts, such as pastoral love poems and fables, and their purpose was to charm, surprise and entertain the audience. As this type of music became more popular, some patrons began employing professional

of beautifully dressed lords and ladies, and then were escorted to their seats at elegantly decorated tables around the hall.

Today’s madrigal dinner is a 21st century The majestic ambience of the event seemed interpretation of a typical Renaissance to be impressive not only to the guests but feast that English barons would hold during also to the cast members. The atmosphere the 12 days of Christmas. Those who were certainly helped the audience feel as if they lucky enough to be invited as favored were part of the 16th century. guests in one of these great halls would be dazzled with stunning pageantry, risqué humor, copious amounts of rich food and extraordinary music. The performances were a mélange of both the sacred and secular; at one moment the guests might be entertained by bawdy humor and at the next by sacred church music. musicians to perform madrigals for audiences at their courts.

In Westminster’s presentation of the “Christmas Madrigal Feaste” the entertainment, though not as risqué, was every bit as dazzling. The royal court, with the King and Queen and a profusion of cast members, including lords and ladies, court jesters, wandering minstrels, dancers and singers, brought the audience a wonderful immersion into Renaissance England.

The event was held in St. Andrew’s Hall at First Presbyterian Church. As the guests arrived, they were greeted by an assembly

AROU N D C A M P U S

with a garland of rosemary and laurel and placing a lemon in its mouth as a symbol of plenty. After a processional of the plattered “wild boar” around St. Andrew’s Hall, guests were served a delicious dinner of stuffed chicken, wild rice and roasted vegetables. They were then serenaded by the Westminster Chorale, which performed five Christmas selections.

Finally came the procession of the flaming dessert to the king’s table while guests were served apple crisp with ice cream.

After a lovely selection of harp music, it was time for the night to end. The royal court sang “Silent Night” while holding candles around the grand table, and then processed out of the hall. At last, the jesters sent the guests off with a reluctant and somewhat humorous farewell.

The evening began with a pre-dinner concert of five Christmas songs by Westminster’s Middle School chorus. The last song, titled “Christmas…In About Three Minutes,” incorporated more than 20 different Christmas tunes in one selection, and the audience was asked to identify as many songs as possible.

(Few patrons actually succeeded at this challenge.)

After the concert, the feaste began. A trumpet fanfare by local musicians Fabio Mann and Josh Workman opened the evening before Head Jester Judah Owen announced a formal greeting to the night’s guests. Then began the grand processional of the royal court, followed by the entrance of the King and Queen (played by Ethan Lowe and Charis Puckett), who took their seats at the head of the royal table in the center of the room.

Following an opening prayer by Lord Brian Case, wassail was served to each guest.

This beverage, traditionally served as a hot mulled cider, was believed to ensure a good

apple harvest for the coming year. It was carried into the room in a bowl with great fanfare. The program noted that the word wassail originates from the old AngloSaxon pledge waes-hael, which means “be in good health.” It was customary to drink a wassail to the lord of the house at early Saxon feasts, which is how the wassail bowl became part of English Christmas traditions. Once the king gave a toast and blessing, the guests at the feaste sat down to enjoy the beverage, salad and bread. Meanwhile, musicians and jesters milled around the room to entertain the guests. Acts included solo singers, dancers, violin duets, guitars and even a harp. Dr. George Robertson was even knighted “Sir Cumference” by one of the jesters.

Overall, the madrigal dinner proved to be a great success. This night of beautiful music, delicious food, merry entertainment and lively conversation was a wonderful way to celebrate the birth our Savior, Jesus Christ. The plan is for the Madrigal Feaste to continue as a Westminster tradition during the Christmas season for years to come. 

Next came the presentation of the boar’s head, a staple at medieval banquets.

In ancient times, the slaughter of this ferocious beast came to symbolize the triumph of the Christ Child over sin. As was noted in the program, King Henry VIII was the one to first establish this dish as a Christmas tradition, dressing the head

WESTMINSTER CLAY SHOOTING SPORTS

BY MICHAEL HITCHCOCK ‘17

Editor’s Note: The first "home" meet for Westminster's GISA Shooting Sports Team was on Oct. 1 at Pinetucky Gun Club in Blythe. Our three volunteer coaches are all National Rifle Association Level I certified through the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. All students on the team were required to obtain Hunter Safety certification by Aug. 1. Senior Michael Hitchcock details his experience on the team.

This year, Westminster created its first organized clay shooting sports team. Clay shooting is a challenging sport consisting of three events: Skeet, Trap and Sporting Clays.

In Skeet, shooters rotate through eight stations and shoot crossing shots from different angles. In Trap, shooters stand on one of five stations, shoot clays flying away at multiple angles, and rotate stations every five shots.

enjoy participating in clay shooting tournaments. However, instead of each person trying to make only themselves look good, I found a deep camaraderie within my team which gave me a new perspective on the sport. My entire team had a lot of fun at tournaments and everyone encouraged each other to do their best. Because of my clay shooting team, I’ve formed friendships with people I never would have met otherwise.

Sporting Clays is more complex than either Trap or Skeet. I like to refer to it as “shotgun golf” because shooters rotate through 10-15 stations (depending on the course) and take shots at clays designed to mimic game animals such as birds or rabbits. Sporting clays includes 100 total shots, with Trap and Skeet having only 25.

I grew up hunting and have been familiar with shotguns for most of my life. Being a part of the clay shooting team has been a wonderful experience, because it has given me new skills and improved my shooting technique. However, clay shooting is not just for people who have experience shooting. Anyone can participate and learn how to shoot safely and with skill.

As someone who has never loved individual sports, I wasn’t sure I would

needed to learn how to shoot. I’ve had the opportunity to watch teammates who had never held a gun before learn how to shoot, and now they can hit just about anything thrown out in front of them.

The coaches on Westminster’s clay shooting team provide excellent instruction for any shooter. They are able to work with different shooters who use different techniques to increase their skill handling a shotgun. Practice is one of the most important things, and the coaches will help each shooter focus on “swinging through” and concentrating on the target in front of them. They will work to make any good shooter into a better one.

“I love shooting sports, and I always love to engage kids – the next generation – in shooting and the outdoors," said Coach Breck Brigham, Jr. “This sport allows youth to learn safe techniques for handling guns while also increasing their self-esteem.”

AROU N D C A M P U S

Coach Brigham said he looks forward to building excellence at Westminster in clay shooting teams and seeing skilled shooters arise from the program. He hopes to see the sport continue to grow and gain importance.

Perhaps my favorite aspect of shooting is that I am able to track my progress and to identify areas needing improvement.

Shooting is a methodical sport requiring instinct and quick reflexes. Regular training creates muscle memory, which is great for Skeet, as well as finely tuned skills to adapt to changing shots in Trap and Sporting Clays.

I cannot stress how important gun safety is to our team. We regularly practice the best and safest ways to handle guns. We make sure that any automatic firearm faces out and open at all times, and that over and under shotguns are broken and placed over the shooter’s shoulder when not in use. No gun is loaded unless the shooter is in the appropriate location and ready to fire.

Being a part of Westminster’s inaugural clay shooting team has been a great way for me to close out my years at Westminster. I am extremely grateful for the experience and skill I have received, as well as for the friendships I have made.

It has taught me to mentally persevere when I’m not doing well and to stay strong when things are going my way. 

ALUMNI ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT: DAN LASSITER (’00) LINGUISTICS AND COGNITIVE SCIENCE: A WAY OF THINKING ABOUT THE SCIENCE OF THE MIND

BY SARAH SAXON (’12) Dan Lassiter, a 2000 Westminster Schools of Augusta graduate, spends his days teaching Stanford University students about a unique topic – linguistics and cognitive sciences. You may be asking yourself a few questions. Let’s get those answered.

Who is Dan? Dan was born in Atlanta and moved to Augusta when his father, Ike Lassiter, became headmaster of Westminster in 1995. Dan went on to earn his undergraduate degree from Harvard in 2004, and then spent a year in New Zealand working toward his Masters of Philosophy degree. Still eager to learn, Dan journeyed to New York City, where he worked diligently to receive his Ph.D. in Linguistics through a five-year program at New York University. A post-doctoral fellowship in Stanford’s Psychology department brought him to the West Coast in 2011. He began teaching at Stanford in 2013 and has been a part of its academic community ever since.

So Dan seems to like language a lot…

Is it really that cool? (Spoiler alert: Yes!) Dan traces the roots of his specific interest in language to his experience at Westminster. “I enjoyed English, History, Government, Biology, Chemistry… but Latin fascinated me,” Dan recalled. He reflects on his time spent in Latin and Greek classes in high school and notes that Mr. Nichols had a way of approaching language with a mathematical mindset.

This unique vantage point for analyzing

16 | WINDOWS - SPRING 2017

sentence structure and word use allows for a greater appreciation for the truly rich structure of the languages we employ each day.

Dan shares the unique art of linguistics and cognitive science with Stanford undergraduate students. He, like his Westminster Latin teacher many years ago, applies mathematics to language in ways that, at first glance, may seem unusual. However, this unconventional application of mathematics helps his students better understand the way we reason and make decisions. This melding of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) with Humanities creates a psychological way of learning about language and how we draw inferences each day.

He recently traveled to Oxford, England to teach a semester-long study abroad course through Stanford. The course was comprised of just six students. With such a small group, he was able to implement a project-based, active learning curriculum.

His students explored the basic dialects of English through observation and carefully studied differences in their own manner of speaking and the manner of speaking in which they were immersed. The course was extremely discussion-based, and Dan said he was excited about the active learning his students were able to experience.

OK, so you’re now convinced that language is (in fact) interesting.

What does Dan think about his educational profession?

While he has always actively sought out opportunities for learning, Dan did not always foresee his professional future being in an educational setting. As a high school student, Dan thought a profession in education sounded stressful and tiresome. Then he went to college and quickly changed his mind.

“I got to Harvard, and I realized teaching college had to be the best job ever!,” Dan remarked. Little did he know, he would be teaching linguistics and cognitive science at another university just seven years later.

Dan describes himself as “insatiably curious” and has a personal goal to never become comfortable in his teaching.

He recently taught a course titled Introduction to Cognitive Science, which forced him to learn new things in such a way that he could then communicate this newfound information with his students.

Dan’s goal for all of his students is that they get excited about understanding the world around them. More specifically, that they understand the roles of the human mind and communication in society and the larger natural world. The beauty of his realm of education is that it can be applied to daily interactions in a very real, very meaningful way.

Language is cool. Dan is awesome.

What does this mean for you?

Dan Lassiter should be an encouragement to students, parents and teachers alike. He has a passion for learning and hopes his passion resonates with his students.

“Whether my students walk away from my course remembering what an axon or a synapse* is… I don’t really care,” Dan reflected. “I do want them to understand that even though things seem unrelated, science can help us understand how things are unified to make a whole.”

Dan brings a sense of relevancy to a quite complex curriculum. He keeps learning exciting and applicable, and Westminster is proud to acknowledge his many academic accomplishments and the difference he is making in many students’ lives. *axons and synapses are biological structures that allow for communication between nerve cells. 

GRATITUDE REPORT 2015-16 We are grateful to those who gave in various ways to Westminster Schools of Augusta during the 2015-16 school year. Our school has benefited from gifts to the Westminster Fund, redirection of tax dollars to the Goal Scholarship, endowed scholarship gifts and contributions to the capital campaign. Our generous financial donors are listed in the following pages.

Thank you. Westminster would not be the same without you.

DEVELOPING NEWS “For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.”

— Hebrews 3:4 In 2011, the board of trustees moved forward with a vision to recapitalize the school's infrastructure on the Westminster campus. Although the exact placement and design of our first new permanent building since Pamplin Hall has evolved, the goal was always the same – to provide Middle and Upper School facilities that better reflect our mission and serve our students, families and community.

The final plan is realized in Knox Hall, named in honor of the Knox family for their generous support of our school and this project. We are excited to celebrate this accomplishment with you with a ribbon-cutting this spring.

22 | WINDOWS - SPRING 2017

We are both humbled and excited by the generosity of Westminster's friends and families over the last several years, who have made it possible for our community to reach the capital campaign goal of $5.9 million. Many stakeholders in our Westminster family have dedicated their time and resources to see this campaign successfully completed.

A portion of the first funds raised was used to purchase Wheeler Field, add equipment for two new playgrounds, renovate the Upper School gymnasium and provide technology upgrades across campus.

Your sacrificial giving has turned this vision for our school into a reality. But there is more to the story that you may not have heard. Westminster was able to finish strong, because of a big gift and a challenge.

Two years ago the Development Committee reached outside the Westminster community and approached a friend of the school about a gift of $350,000 to be used toward the construction of Knox Hall. After reviewing our proposal, visiting the campus and spending time with our students, this friend countered with a challenge: If Westminster could raise $4.9 million by Dec. 31, 2016, the friend would give Westminster a $1 million gift – the largest single gift in the school’s history – to put us at our $5.9 million goal.

With $2.7 million left to reach the amount set by this friend of the school, your school board and Development Committee worked tirelessly and prayed continually for the Lord to help us reach this ambitious goal. By August 2016, our capital campaign was just short by

D EV EL O PIN G N E W S

$600,000, so we went public to raise the final dollars. The committee, led by newly-appointed Westminster Fund and Campaign Coordinator Renee Campbell, rallied our community, and God generously answered through your gifts and pledges.

As you visit the Middle and Upper School campus in the next few months, please take a moment to observe the progress of Knox Hall and know that you played a pivotal role in its construction.

We praise God from whom all blessings flow and are grateful to all who have made

sacrificial gifts to support these efforts.

We thank each of our donors for allowing the Lord to use them to help us realize this goal, and we give all the glory and honor to God, the builder of everything.
