Every time I sit at a long red light, my mind wanders back to the traffic flow algorithm we created in my mathematical modeling class in college. This project-based class tackled 06 AROUND CAMPUS “real-world” problems such as the timing of traffic lights at a busy intersection, and how to land a helicopter on an aircraft carrier in high winds. 14 FINE ARTS While this sort of elective was perfect for a mathematics major, another influential course, “Madness in Literature,” was a welcome departure from my math classes. We explored the 18 ATHLETICS concept of madness in a variety of works, including Don Quixote, Hamlet, and One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. Other memorable classes included “New 24 FEATURE York Theatre,” which included a week in New York City seeing a show every day, and “International Politics,” which included 30 DISTINGUISHED an in-depth study of the Cuban Missile Crisis. ALUMNI AWARD The feature of this issue of Images highlights several of our current Upper School electives. As the graduate of a 34 CLASS NOTES Jesuit high school with a very traditional and rigid tradition, I love that our students are able to take such interesting courses, and I’m grateful that our teachers are both cre- 51 ANNUAL REPORT ative and passionate about their subjects. It’s these types of electives and opportunities that open students’ minds and foster a greater—and more genuine—love of learning. This issue also recognizes our 2019 Distinguished Alumni Award recipient, Shane Williamson ’88. Shane is an award-winning architect in Toronto and a tenured professor at the University of Toronto. During his visit to campus, he spoke honestly and eloquently to Upper School students, and also spent time with a group of fifth grade aspiring architects. It was clear that Shane has a gift for both teaching and paying forward the lessons he values from his Country Day education. When interviewed for this magazine, he remarked, “I’ve always reflected so positively on the foundation that Country Day gave me. It’s the bellwether that was set for my future endeavors.” Finally, this issue also recognizes the generosity and support of our larger school community in the enclosed 2018-19 Annual Report. I am grateful to all who gave to our school in the past year. Your support allows us to continue to provide our students with a robust experience that will serve them throughout their lives. Thank you to everyone who gave to our school 18 this year. 6 Sincerely, Kef L. Wilson 51 24 14 4 • SAVCDS.ORG WINTER 2020 • 5 AROUND CAMPUS Upper School Students Work to Promote Democracy On September 27, seniors Rachel Mascolo and Vik Manocha organized a voter registration drive to coincide with High School Voter Registration Week, a program of The Civics Center. Together with support from faculty, these students helped to educate their peers about the importance of civic engagement and to get them registered to vote in our local and national elections. Altogether some 30 Country Day stu- dents became registered voters! The work for democracy continued the following day, as Upper School Spanish students collaborated with the League of Women Voters of Coastal Georgia to staff a bilingual voter registration booth at the Fiesta Latina, which was held on River Street to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month. Our World Language Approach students used their Spanish to involve passersby in conversa- in Upper School tions about the importance of civic engagement and to help “We teach students how to use language in the real world,” them navigate the process of registering to vote.

In Upper tives from the League of Women Voters praised Country Day School, the world language teachers provide opportunities students for their ability to engage the public using Spanish for students to put their knowledge into real-world practice, and for the positive energy they brought to the event. with the goal of graduating students with an adept under- standing of their chosen language and its culture. In Spanish classes, students interview a native speaker in the Savannah area; in French, students read and present current-event articles from French newspapers; in Latin, students present detailed PowerPoints on ancient Roman culture and history. Through these project-based learning experiences, students see the rewarding results of their hard work, while simultane- ously developing a comfortable and familiar relationship with their language of choice. This work is complemented with the variety of study-abroad trips and opportunities. Through this Cross-Divisional mission of applying languages to students’ lives, Madame Lewis says it’s no surprise that students often choose to con- Citizen Scientists tinue to study their languages in college.

  • H&A Eye for An
    Hachette Australia partners with Channel Seven to create two Home and Away novels. PUBLISHER Hachette Australia is thrilled to announce they are working with the Seven Network to publish two Home and Away novels. The launch publication is a Home and Away and Australian first: an ebook published as part of a special TV event. The first book ties into the special TV event, Home and Away: An Eye for An Eye, which launched on Presto on December 9, immediately following the season finale of the regular series on Seven. The Home and Away: An Eye for An Eye TV event is exclusive to Presto and centres on the Braxton family, seeing the return of two much-loved characters, Heath (Dan Ewing) and Bianca (Lisa Gormley) to Summer Bay. Home and Away: An Eye for An Eye, the novel, releases exclusively in ebook in Australia on 16 December with a paperback edition earmarked for 2016. The second – as yet untitled – novel will also be released in 2016. There is already interest in both novels from UK publishers given the UK is Home and Away’s strongest market outside of Australia and New Zealand. Hachette Australia’s Fiction Publisher Rebecca Saunders said the manuscript was under lock and key because it contained explosive material and exclusive scenes that will not be shown on television. Saunders said the books aimed to take readers further into the hearts and minds of the much-loved bad-boy Braxton family. “Home and Away has the country’s most devoted and passionate fans and Home and Away: An Eye for An Eye has been created and produced just for them by Seven Productions.

  • More Than Mrs Robinson: Citizenship Schools in Lowcountry South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia, 1957-1970
    More Than Mrs Robinson: Citizenship Schools in Lowcountry South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia, 1957-1970 (A Dissertation submitted in requirement for the Degree of Doctor in Philosophy, The University of Nottingham, October 2009) Clare Russell 1 Abstract The first ―citizenship school‖ (a literacy class that taught adults to read and write in order that they could register to vote) was established by Highlander Folk School of Monteagle, Tennessee on Johns Island, South Carolina in 1957. Within three years, the schools were extended across the neighboring Sea Islands, to mainland Charleston and to Savannah, Georgia. In 1961, after Highlander faced legal challenges to its future, it transferred the schools to the fledgling Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), who extended the program across the South. Historians have made far-reaching claims for the successes and benefits of the schools. For example, they claim that they recruited inexperienced but committed people and raised them to the status of community leaders; that they encouraged civic cooperation and political activism and formed the ―foundation on which the civil rights movement‖ was built and they argue that the schools were an unprecedented opportunity for women to develop as activists and as leaders. Yet, they base these claims on certain myths about the schools: that the first teacher Bernice Robinson was an inexperienced and uneducated teacher, that her class was a blueprint for similar ones and that Highlander bequeathed its educational philosophy to the SCLC program. They make claims about female participation without analyzing the gender composition of classes. This dissertation challenges these assumptions by comparing and contrasting programs established in Lowcountry South Carolina and in Savannah.
