Murphy '65 Receives TIME Magazine's Alumni Service Award Teacher of the Year An educator in the Brockton Public School System for more than 20 years, Rita E. Smith has been named Outstand­ ing Social Studies Teacher ofthe Year by TIME magazine and the National Council for Social Studies. Rita, a Class of 1962 graduate, teaches ''Shaping of Western Society" to 144 tenth-graders. With her imag­ inative teaching methods, she injects vitality into the disciplines of art, reading, music, writing and history. Although a ''traditional'' teacher, Rita's student projects are spectacular and unconventional. There is a giant map of Europe painted by students on the floor of her class­ room. On the ceiling above, another class ofstudents has painted a map ofthe solar system that glows florescently in black light. Annually, her class participates in a ''living'' chess game whereby students play chess pieces while costumed as historical characters. Rita's educational philosophy involves this use of outrageous imaginative projects to shock students out of cynicism and into participation. ln addition to the Teacher of the Year Award, Rita was Alumni Council President, Brenda Hughes '70, presents one of 20 people nationwide to receive a Fullbright-Hayes the 1985 Alumni Service Award to Joseph F.

  • After Two Years of Planning
    ® AFTER TWO YEARS OF PLANNING, The Steppingstone Foundation launched its newest initiative— the College Success Academy— in July, based in two Boston public K-8 schools, the Edison and the Jackson/Mann. While most of their classmates had put away their textbooks for the summer, the pilot class of 46 Scholars at the College Success Academy were rolling up their sleeves for six weeks of classes in math, English/ Language Arts, science, and VWXG\VNLOOVWRQDPHDIHZɻ Photo credit: Meg Birnbaum Photography (continued from front) The College Success Academy (CSA) shares many similarities with The Steppingstone Academy (TSA) beginning with the goal of setting Boston students on the path to college graduation. Both programs welcome students who are eager to work hard to achieve their college goals; there is an academic program that takes place after school and over multiple summers; and there are comprehensive academic, college guidance, and social/emotional support services through high school and college. What’s different? CSA is based in two Boston K-8 public schools, and in its first three years will only recruit Scholars from those schools. There will be no placement into independent or public exam schools; instead, the academic program will span five summers rather than two, with extra academic support Reggie Farina ’94 in ninth grade.
