Trips Take Students Outside and Up Close with Learning

As the last day of school for the 2014-2015 school year ended, most students headed for vacations, summer jobs and other non-academic pursuits. Yet two groups of students and teachers opted for additional learning and time with classmates through global studies trips.

Fifteen Middle Schoolers headed off to Colorado with three teacher/chaperones to explore the Rocky Mountains and learn about the ecology of Colorado. During most of the trip, the group stayed at the YMCA Snow Mountain Ranch, an outdoor education center located in Winter Park. They also visited Garden of the Gods and the Manitou Cliff Dwellings where students learned firsthand about Colorado and its earliest headed to the Caribbean to learned about the importance of “This trip made it come to life inhabitants.

From the 1930s into the 1980s, students could remove coats and ties in class for comfort, but had to be fully dressed for meals. The mandatory dress rule in the dining hall was so strict that demerits— resulting in Saturday morning detention hours—were assigned for missing coats or blazers, loosened or lost ties, untucked shirts, improper footwear or any deviation.

Post-war American culture blended recovery and relief with an appreciation for small luxuries; a lift in fabric restrictions led to roomy, comfortable fashions like wide-leg flannel trousers, silk and knit ties and quality leather shoes. A student editor of The Bulldog in the 1950s described “the usual school attire of coat, shirt, tie, shorts and bare feet,” often sported by boarding students at breakfast. His fashion suggestions Late 1960s included oxford cloth shirts, argyle socks and ties in “popular Windsor knots”—while he admitted that in the dorm “I am dressed sweaters or vests, khaki pants in warm weather or, for a few brief just like you are, in socks and a blanket.” As a student, alumnus and summers, a blue-and-white seersucker jacket that one alumnus former math chair Richard Varney ’52 met dress code regulations remembered as “stupid-looking but comfortable.” For decades, by “wearing the same tie for three years and getting away with it.” senior privilege in dress code extended simply to allowing a pale Other alumni recall contests for the nastiest tie. blue shirt.

BULLIS | www.bullis.org 9 Commander Bullis encouraged individuality in other ways, he staunchly defended the dress code and the prescribed hair length: four inches or less, it could not touch the collar. Larry Bullis ’54, a math teacher and, in 1980, headmaster, sometimes measured boys’ hair to check length. With few outlets for self- expression in dress, students tamed too-long hair during the week with gel; one African American student slicked down his hair daily, letting it fill out on the weekends.

Detention could be assigned if a student needed a haircut. One teacher sent an 8th grade student to walk down Falls Road to a Potomac Village barbershop, only to hear later from the furious mother when the boy got a poison ivy rash from roadside overgrowth. 1982

Susan Sweeney Spingler, one of the first female teachers at Bullis, placed a coat rack outside her art class in 1979 and told the boys 1987 that they could remove jackets, ties, even shirts if they wore a t-shirt.

When the first group of girls entered Upper School that September, some recall the instantaneous effect on the boys: ties were straightened, shirts were tucked, manners and even academic efforts improved. The uniform designated for girls included a kilt skirt in the now-familiar blue, gray and gold plaid (a gray skirt was also permitted), a white or blue shirt, knee socks, black shoes and the navy Bullis blazer. Girls varied the uniform in small ways. Cyndi Bullis Vasco ’83, the founders’ granddaughter and a current Bullis parent and trustee—her father Larry Bullis was headmaster then—recalls teachers remarking “Is it free dress today, Miss Bullis?” whenever she embellished the dress code with accessories or the wrong socks. 1993

“The uniform has certainly changed over time and evolved with fashion,” says alumnus and Boys Athletic Director Andres Parra ’99, “while simultaneously remaining a ’uniform’ with traditional elements of the Bullis skirt, or tie and button down shirt.”

“School spirit is another component of the uniform, since students wear blue and gold every day,” adds Upper School Principal Robert Pollicino. “The dress code connects us to Bullis history and instills a sense of community.”

The energy and spirit was so electric at today’s pep rally. I was so pleased for the seniors; originally, they struggled with how to make their grand entrance, but it came together and was the most unified and energized entrance I have seen in nine years at Bullis. I love that their class song stemmed from their Experiential Ed time at Calleva. They set the tone for fun and LOUD spirit. Watching it all unfold was a highlight of my week.

GIRLS SOCCER WINS ISL-AA CHAMPIONSHIP

The fall 2015 varsity girls team became the first in school history to win the ISL-AA division after an undefeated season in league play. They clinched the victory with a 3-0 shut-out over Flint Hill in the league tournament final.

“Early in the season I had a good idea that we had the capability to win the regular season and tournament,” says Coach David Wood. “The team lived up to the promise. It was amazing!”

Leading the team were four senior captains, all four-year varsity starters. “Each led in her own way,” Coach Wood says, crediting Jessica Vincent for defense, Drew Kesterman for scoring, Annika Jansa for assists and Brooke Priddy for passing ability and defense. “They shared a goal of winning the league,” he adds, “and set the tone by being positive all season and keeping the other players focused.”

The victory marked the end to a season that had a difficult start, with the team losing four out of their first five games. “They overcame tremendous adversity, leading the Bullis way and never doubting themselves to win their last four games and finish 5-4 for the season,” says Head Coach Pat Cilento. Led by Dwayne Haskins ’16, the team also had strong play from Cameron Brown ’16 who has committed to play at Penn State. Senior Patrick Johnson ’16, injured early and unable to play this season, will play for the University of Wisconsin next year.

This marks the third IAC title in a row for Bullis varsity football and the fourth in the past five years.

HOMECOMING’S ALUMNI TAILGATE In the spirit of Homecoming, we welcomed back more than 50 alumni and their families for the Family Tailgate party prior to the football game. We were honored to be joined by former teacher and coach Faith (Bullis) Mace— daughter of Bullis School founders Commander William and Lois Bullis—who drove nearly 2,000 miles from Florida to attend. “It was a wonderful time. My parents would have loved to have been at this Homecoming celebrating the 85th year of the school that they started with a mere 13 students in the middle of the Great Depression,” she says. Over delicious food from Rio Grande, alumni across the decades shared laughter and stories of their time at Bullis.

Thank you to all of our cherished alumni and everyone who came out to cheer on our Bulldogs who defeated St. Albans 50-12.

STRENGTHENING OUR FOUNDATION

So much has happened since last fall’s letter! This has truly been a “groundbreaking” year with so many advancements for Bullis—new programs, campus projects, more families than ever before and much more.

Last year at this time we were still in the “quiet” phase of the capital campaign—and just weeks ago we celebrated the first phase of construction of the Gerald L. Boarman Discovery Center with an all Sschool groundbreaking ceremony, complete with our distinguished board of trustees and local dignitaries. It is impressive to see how far we have come since the initial planning stages of this campaign just a few years ago. Our goal of $27M is nearly three times the highest amount ever raised in prior campaigns at Bullis—and yet we have al- Campaign Co-chairs, Bullis parents and trustees Pat Caulfield, ready raised over $23M to date with more families stepping up every P’12, ’14 (far left) and David Trone, P’14, ’20 (far right) at October’s day to help us meet our goal. groundbreaking with Head of School Dr. Gerald Boarman and Executive Director of Institutional Advancement Joanne Szadkowski. As I watched the construction fences go up I realized that Bullis, too, is leaping fences and clearing hurdles in community giving. Our philanthropic culture has clearly grown as our community embrac- es the philosophy of giving back to this wonderful institution. A glowing example is the fact that staff giving to the Annual Fund has “Bullis is leaping fences achieved 100% for the third year in a row! These days, more often than not, you are reaching out to me to ask how you can participate and clearing hurdles in and support Bullis in a variety of generous ways. This overarching positive attitude toward giving strengthens our entire foundation community giving.” and ensures a bright future for our School.

You can help cultivate the growing culture of philanthropy at Bullis by participating in the capital campaign (there’s still time!) and by giving generously to our Annual Fund this school year. It’s truly an honor to coordinate all of your support. Thank you for taking Bullis to new heights in giving!

Sincerely,

36 BULLIS | Fall-Winter 2015-2016 Honor Roll of Lifetime Giving to Bullis It is with great pleasure that we recognize those donors who, throughout the years, have made Bullis a top philanthropic priority. In our strategic plan and through the continuing efforts of the Bullis Board of Trustees, we have emphasized the important goal of “building a culture of philanthropy” at Bullis. As you can see within these pages, together we have made incredible strides towards achieving this goal. Thank you to those individuals, families, foundations and corporations whose philanthropy has made such a positive impact on our school.
