The Steppingstone Foundation 2009 Annual Report (on cover, clockwise from left) ANDREW, Steppingstone ’08 MORIAH, Steppingstone ’03 CHRISTINA, Steppingstone ’02 ANDREW, Father The Simpson Family ALEXIA, Steppingstone ’07 Christina, a junior at Boston College, was the first from the Simpson family to attend The Steppingstone TINA, Mother Academy. One year later, younger sister Moriah, currently a sophomore at Hampton University, followed suit. The girls recall their first summer session of the academic preparation component. “The work was challenging, with lots of new material, and the pace was fast. But with the support of my parents and Steppingstone advisors, I got through it,” recalls Christina. Moriah adds, “Yes, Steppingstone really prepared me for Boston Latin School. The standards are so high there and I felt that with all the preparation I had over the 14 months, I was ready to move forward with confidence.” While Christina and Moriah went on to attend Boston Latin School, younger siblings Alexia and Andrew both chose Beaver Country Day School. Initially, Tina, their mother, was uneasy about the prospect of an independent school education for them. “Considering a school with tuition fees seemed out of my reach. I just didn’t think it was financially possible for us, and I would have left it at that. But then Ms. Conrad from Steppingstone went over the application process and urged us to consider it, and I’m so glad we took her advice!” The Simpsons have taken advantage of the many resources available to them through Steppingstone, including financial aid workshops, college application and essay writing classes, and college tours. The Simpson Scholars attended Saturday Mentoring and Study Hall (SMASH), and Christina and Moriah had the same mentor, Allison Foley, for four years. “Even though Allison lives in a different state now, we still communicate with her to this day,” said Tina. “She makes every effort to be with us at major events in our lives, such as graduations.” Christina describes education as “more than just being book smart. It’s being prepared to enter the world as a professional and succeeding.” The four Simpson Scholars are well on their way.

  • An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England

    An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England, We, the heads of independent schools, comprising 176 schools in the New England region, stand in solidarity with our students and with the families of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The heart of our nation has been broken yet again by another mass shooting at an American school. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who died and are grieving for the loss of life that occurred. We join with our colleagues in public, private, charter, independent, and faith-based schools demanding meaningful action to keep our students safe from gun violence on campuses and beyond. Many of our students, graduates, and families have joined the effort to ensure that this issue stays at the forefront of the national dialogue. We are all inspired by the students who have raised their voices to demand change. As school leaders we give our voices to this call for action. We come together out of compassion, responsibility, and our commitment to educate our children free of fear and violence. As school leaders, we pledge to do all in our power to keep our students safe. We call upon all elected representatives - each member of Congress, the President, and all others in positions of power at the governmental and private-sector level – to take action in making schools less vulnerable to violence, including sensible regulation of fi rearms. We are adding our voices to this dialogue as a demonstration to our students of our own commitment to doing better, to making their world safer.

    Head of School

    Boston, Massachusetts Head of School Introduction One of the nation’s leading independent schools, The Winsor School serves over 440 academically promising and motivated girls in grades 5 though 12 (Classes I-VIII). Located in the heart of Boston’s Longwood Medical and Academic area, the school’s impressive urban campus connects girls with the rich artistic, scientific, and cultural offerings of one of the country’s most robust cities. Students represent diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds and hail from more than 50 different communities in and around the Boston area, with 25% residing in the city of Boston. Winsor is a place where intelligence and learning are respected and girls are challenged to realize their full potential by being active participants in their own education. The school’s long and rich record of academic achievement sets it among the most impressive independent schools in the country. Of the 64 girls who graduated in 2014, 10 were National Merit Semifinalists and 26 received National Merit Letters of Commendation. Colleges with the most Winsor matriculations since 2011 include Harvard, Yale, MIT, Boston College, and the University of Pennsylvania. Winsor faculty ignite students’ interests and help them develop the knowledge and tools to discover their passions and to answer the question, “What kind of person do you want to be?” Girls quickly find that no subject is too complex, no feat too difficult, and no dream out of reach. Equally important, Winsor cultivates girls’ empathy for others, respect for themselves, sense of responsibility to their communities, and courage to be generous-minded women of action in a global society.

    Celebrating 125 Years!

    The TI Legend The Tiger Inn Newsletter Spring, 2016 Celebrating 125 years! On February 20, 2016 over 200 Tiger Inn alumni, partners, and spouses came to celebrate TI’s 125th anniversary at the Westin in Princeton. Members arrived from up and down the eastern seaboard and represented sections from 1949 through 2015. John Bernard ‘49 was the oldest alumnus and outgoing President Grace Larson ‘16 and Vice President Cole Lampman’ 16 were the youngest in attendance. During Hap Copper’s ‘83 welcome remarks, a spontaneous contest of TI chants broke out among the younger and older alumni. The energy in the room became palable as a chant came from one side of the room and then the other, both different but the same in the strong feelings for Tiger Inn. Dinner and dancing followed. The music of The East Coast Band and a cameo appearance of The Blues Brothers got people on thier feet and the dance floor was rocking.The evening finished back at Tger Inn as buses shuttled people back and forth from the hotel to the club, and back again. Tiger Inn was open and on-tap for current members, alumni, and guests to celebrate TI’s 125th annivsary.
