Celebration of Philanthropy 2018-2019 Celebration of Philanthropy Thank you! Carroll School's Journey "While I was evaluating Jonathan (who was dyslexic and bright), I remember Junie Lowe sitting in my office and saying, 'Well, where's the school we can send him to?' And I said, 'Alas, there is no such school.' He said, 'Then let's start one.'" –dr. edwin cole, co-founder (The Carroll School: Chapter 1, page 11) "We opened school early in September [1967] with seven students and by year-end had twenty-eight students. It was the only school in history we know of that had its enrollment quadruple in a year." –mr. samuel lowe, co-founder (The Carroll School: Chapter 1, page 16) the carroll school (original location) west newton, ma, september 1967 2 celebration of philanthropy 2019 Schools have journeys that reflect both Carroll educators know today what was their character and their responsibilities to unknowable in our earlier years, and we the larger world. Much like an individual’s believe that we can do so much more to physical development is accompanied by help children with language-based learning growth in sophistication, cognitive capacity, differences than we ever imagined before. By and sense of purpose, Carroll’s fifty-two years creating more efficient ways to individualize as an institution have been an evolution. learning, we are confident that we can increase efficacy. With Targeted Cognitive The early years were defined by a pioneering message from Intervention, we have evidence that fluent spirit, trial, and error, and surviving the daily and efficient reading is possible for all challenges of a new school whose emerging Steve Wilkins students. Through a complete education understanding of language-based learning Head of School that emphasizes the advantages of the struggles was also a new educational dyslexic brain - including arts, sports, history, concept. Was a school for dyslexics a viable engineering, design, science, and technology model?

What comes next on this extraordinary Carroll’s middle years were characterized by journey? When we continue to follow the a sense of clarity in direction and mission. mantra of “give each child what they most Carroll was indeed a viable concept. In the need,” Carroll will stay keenly focused on late 1980s and 1990s, we grew in our capacity research in cognitive science, neuroimaging, to provide the best available remedial technology, educational research, and programs needed by our students and the wellness education to constantly improve traditional academic programs parents our practice. expected. Designed to be a transitional program in which students would stay at Carroll’s vigilant restlessness to do the best Carroll for a short period of time, the school we possibly can for our students has created continued to deepen its understanding of quite an amazingly effective, influential, and language-based learning difficulties. powerful school. On behalf of the entire Carroll community, I thank you for your Today, Carroll’s journey is identified by a partnership and generosity as we continue strong commitment “to give each child on this journey. what they most need” and a growth mindset that compels us to search for a deeper understanding of how to accomplish this. By studying and engaging in top-level research of how an individual learns and, specifically, how the brain of a dyslexic learns, Carroll’s model has changed dramatically in the past decade. We now know that, through neuroplasticity, the Carroll experience literally rewires reading networks and learning obstacles can be dramatically minimized. 1 Academyy of Charlemlemonntt • American University • Amherst College • Antioch University • Arlington Cathoholic • AssAAssumptisumptiou iono College • Babsonsso Collellelege • Bancroft School • Bard College • Bates Coollegellege • Baylor University • Beaver Coununtry Day • Bennington College • Bentley Universsitity • Berklee CBrewstollegere Academof Muysic • Bostoonn Collllege • Boston University • Brandeis University • BBrewststertert AcaddemdNew Hampty • Bridondg SchoolgewaterterStateSStStatatat Collllegell geg • BrimmerB and May • Bryant University • Cambridb ge ScchoocProctorl Academof Wyesestoes onon • Cardigiganig Mountaino School • Carletoneetonton College • Carroll Upperp School • Caththolilic Memorrial • Cazenazez ovia College • Champlainmpmplainlain College • CChapelhapeapel HillHill-CChaunhaunauncy Hallall • Chararlese Riverr School ClarkC UniUn versity • CleClemson University • Colby College •LaCwwrencolgae tAcademe Univyersity • College of Ch ton • College of Wooster • Connectticut College • Cornell UUniniveerrsity • Cushing Academy • Danaan Hall School • Darrow Schoohool • Dartmoutrtmouth College • DePauul Universittyy • Drew Uniniversityersiitt • Dubllin School • Eagleg HHill Schoolool • Eckeerrd Collegeee • EElon Universitersitty • EmersonEmerson College • Emmma Willard School • Emory University • Endicott College • Evergreen State College • Fairfield University ChCChapel Hill – • Fashion Instititute ofCarrollTecechnologech Upnoperlo Schoolgy •l FitchburgCChChauncySSthatatatate HallUUniniverssitysitity • Forman Schooc ol • Franklin & Marshalll Collegeo legeCambridge • Fuurman School ofUniUi Westonverrsity • Gannnn Acadcacademyaded mymy • George Washington University • GeorgetownnUniversity • GettyssbuburgCollege • GleBrimmerBrBnnhiholmem ande SchoolSch May • GoucherCollCoollllege • Gould Academyy • Governoernnor’s ADanacacaded eHallmy • GrereeeenwoBeBodoavaderSchoolSShSchoSch Countrychlho Da •y SchoolHamiltonHami Collegeeegege • Hampshire College • Hartwick College • High Poin University Hobart and William Smith Colleges • Indiana Universirsityity • Ithhaacacca College • Kent’s HillHilll SchoolSchooool • KimballK a UnUUnioniono Academy • Kingsg wood Oxfxfordxford Acaademy • St.La Sefabayststianetiaittetn’e’ss College • Lake Forestoreorestst CCoollege • Landmark School • Lawrence Accaademmyy • LLeslesley UUniniveersityrsity • Lexxiningtoggtton Christian Academy • Loyola University • Lynchbchbhhbuhbbbuurg College • Maiinne Maritime Acadeemmy • Malden Catholic • Marionapolis Prepaparatory School • Mass College of Art & Desiggnn • Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M((MIT)()MIT)T) • Matignongnonon Highgh SchoolS ol • Merrimmacma k College • Middlebury College • Middlesex Comommunity CollegeCollllege • Minuteemmanm High School • Mount Holyoke College • Mount Ida College • Museum Schooo l of Fine Arts • New Engglaand Academe y • New England Colllege • New Haamptoam ton SchooMiddleburyl • New CollegeYork U iversity • Newwmanman SSchochool • Nicochols Collleege • NNtorthheassternste University • Norwor ich University • Ohhio StaDaDterrtmouthUniUniver Collegersitrsr ity • Parsonsrsons The New School for Dessigsi n • Philadelphia Universe ity • PlPlymouymouth SSttate College • Pommfret School • Portsmoum th AbAbbey • Proctor Academemy • Public Schooools • Quinnipiac University • Regis Collegege • Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute • Rhode Island School of Desesign • Rider UUniversirsisiityty • Rivers School • RoanRo oke Collegege • Rochestteter Institute of Tecechnec nology • Roger WilliamsamRRoRochestsc UniUneriv Instituteersitersity of• TechnologySacred (RIT)Heae rt School (Kingstoniing n, MA) • Sacred Heart University • Saint Michael’s College • Salem State College • SSalialliisbury School • Savannah College of CoCCornellr University Art andand Deesign • SiSimmons UniversityWilliams • Skid Collegemore Colleggee • Smitthh Collegeegeg • Souto hern New Hampshire University • St. Augustg ine Middle School • St. GGeoeoorge’s SSchoolScchoooolol • St. John’s High School • St. Josepph Preparatory HHigigh Schooool • St. Lawrreen e UMIMMITniverse ity • St. Amhersterst CoCollegelle NoNNortheastern Sebastian’s High School • UnSivt.ersitThyo ofm Massachuseas Aquins Amherstas HHiigh School • Stanford University • StoneleighStanford-Burnham School • Suffolk UnUnin versity • Swarththmhmoreorree CoCollegCollegllegggee • Syracuse UnUniversityersersityty • Taboraboror Academcacademyemy • Thayer Academydemyemy • Towerer SScchool RhodeRhR •o Tr Islandinity College • Tufts University • Tulane University • UMASS Amherst • UMASS Boston •SchoolSScUMA ofS DesignS Dartmouth • UMASS Lowell • Union College • University of Alabama • University of C(RISD)(R( oISlorado -

  • 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.

The first Town Meeting of the new Town of Andover was convened April 23, 1855.

The following list of Selectmen was compiled at the request of former Town Manager Ken Mahony on the occasion of the move to the new Town Offices in 1984. Colonel Edward M. Harris, a former member of the Board of Selectmen, researched the list in the Fall of 1983, shortly before his death. Town staff, Alice Flanders and Barbara Gaunt, assisted in compiling the photos. Selectman Gail L. Ralston updated the photos in 1988, and took on the project once again in 2011 at the urging of Town Manager Buzz Stapczynski, adding biographies culled from newspaper articles, town reports, and personal submissions.

  • March 2019 Program.Pdf
    March 8, 2019 On behalf of the Girls’/Women District of Massachusetts Hockey it is my pleasure to welcome you to the 10U, 12U, and 14U divisions of our State Tournament. The district wants to thank our hosts the New England Sports Center for making their facility available to us so we can house all divisions in a central location and allow girls’ hockey players and fans to watch their friends compete as they do. The events of this weekend would not be possible without the dedicated work of the many volunteers in who represent the Girls Tournament Committee and have put in countless hours in the organizational process: Karla Aguirre, Christopher Gong, Paula Gray, Chris Holden, David Hymovitz, Bob Joyce, Don McNeil, Jay O’Neil, Mindy O’Neil, Bill Paulsen, Dave Pelletier, and Deb Pond. We wish all our players and coaches the best of luck this weekend as they compete towards the state championship. To those teams fortunate to advance to the USA Hockey National Tournament we wish you the best of luck as you represent Massachusetts Hockey. We expect everyone who enters the New England Sports Center for our event will be respectful of the players, officials and other spectators who are here to enjoy this event. We expect that spectators will be an encouraging voice for their own team and refrain from any comments directed towards the on-ice official or players on other teams. If you cannot meet these expectations, you can and will be asked to leave the facility under USA Hockey’s Zero Tolerance Policy.

  • Class of 2016 First Destination Report
    Class of 2016 First Destination Report UNION COLLEGE SCHENECTADY, NEW YORK Section 1: Methodology For the purposes of this report, we define the Class of 2016 as those students who completed an undergraduate degree at Union College and graduated in either December 2015 or June 2016. The primary means by which we collected information from members of the Class of 2016 was our "First Destination" survey. We invited members of the Class of 2016 to take the survey, beginning in May 2016 and until it closed at the end of December 2016. Additionally, in an effort to learn about the post-graduation activities of as many members of the Class of 2016 as possible, we searched for usable data beyond our survey. We found a significant amount of usable employment information about the Class of 2016 on LinkedIn and Facebook. In addition, we worked with faculty and employers to collect additional post-graduate outcomes. Combining data from all of these sources, we were able to account for the post-graduation activities of 91 percent of 2016 graduates. The National Association of Colleges and Employers (“NACE”) coined the term “knowledge rate” to be used in lieu of “survey response rate” to reflect the approach of going beyond simply relying on a survey for obtaining outcomes information. “It’s important to think about not how many graduates responded to your survey, but to identify the percentage of graduates for whom you have knowledge about their first-destination career outcomes. This is an acceptable research methodology as long as the data are reliable and verifiable.” NACE encourages institutions to look at other legitimate sources of finding critical outcome information, such as faculty, employers, and social media.
