  • Westtown School
    Upper School Principal West Chester, PA Westtown School, an independent, PK-12, day and boarding Quaker school in West Chester, Pennsylvania, seeks an experienced, dynamic educational leader to serve as Upper School Principal. The principal will provide strategic guidance for the Upper School, support its faculty, oversee its daily operations, and guide the division through both joys and challenges with skill, sensitivity and grace. The principal will partner with other senior administrators to develop and implement school- wide strategic priorities that further the school’s mission, and will ensure the alignment of Upper School initiatives with those priorities. The School: Westtown is a spirit-led school where students are empowered to discover their unique gifts and guiding purpose in a values-based community, while acquiring the skills and knowledge they will need to impact — and to better — the world they will inherit. Founded in 1799 by members of the Philadelphia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends, Westtown educates not just for the sake of college preparation, but for an engaged and reflective life. The school’s academic program is rigorous, and its college admissions record is impressive. At the same time, the school places a strong emphasis on reflection and mindfulness, both in weekly Meeting for Worship and in students’ everyday lives. Westtown’s beautiful 600-acre campus, located just 25 miles west of Philadelphia, encourages investigation, relaxation, and play, as well as illustrating the school’s commitment to sustainability. Quaker values and practices pervade the curriculum and culture, encouraging each community member to value diversity, to seek peace and justice, and to demonstrate respect for self and others.

  • Mr. James Desantis, Astronaut Memorial Foundation
    To: Mr. James DeSantis, Astronaut Memorial Foundation NASA Kennedy Space Center November 11, 1996 "Veterans Day" is a good moment to reflect on people who have died in the service of the United States, and in particular, on people who have died in the service of the manned space activities of this country. We are still trying to establish in your mind that Major Robert Lawrence was one such person. Regarding your correspondence with Mr. Roger Blanchard of the AF Personnel Center, I want to make sure you have the "big picture" regarding whether or not he should be formally recognized as a "dead American astronaut" on the "Astronaut Memorial Foundation". A recent exchange of letters between you and the AF indicates to me that, while you are being technically accurate, you both are still missing the point. Whether or not Major Lawrence ever earned (or deserved) "Air Force Astronaut Status" is irrelevant, since that is not what is necessary to gain recognition by the AMF, as you realize. Neither USAF Major Charles Bassett, nor USAF Captain Theodore Freeman, ever earned that status, yet they are both on the memorial BECAUSE THEY WERE KILLED IN TRAINING FOR THE ASTRONAUT PROGRAM. So they were undeniably "real astronauts" even if they did not have formal USAF "astronaut status". Unless it is your position that both Bassett and Freeman are on the memorial erroneously and should be removed (and of course you don't advocate that, nor do I), you must accept that Major Lawrence's case is a precise analog of theirs.

Both her grandfather and her mother's grandfather were wealthy Alabamians. The common belief was that Tallulah received much of her acting talent from her father, but accounts of her mother1s younger days show proof that both of her parents were vivacious and talented. A stranger once told Tallulah, "Your mother was the most beautiful thing that ever lived. Many people have said you get your acting talent from your father, but I disagree. I was at school with Ada Eugenia and I knew Will well. Did you know that she could faint on 1 cue?11 Tallulahfs mother possessed grace and beauty and was quite flamboyant. She loved beautiful clothes and enjoyed creating a ruckus in her own Southern world.* Indeed, Tallulah inherited her mother's joy in turning social taboos upside down.

  • Serving Career and Technical Education Students in Pennsylvania
    Career and Technical Student Organizations Serving Career and Technical Education Students in Pennsylvania 1 Dear CTSO Leaders, As the leader of a statewide trade association dedicated to the growth and development of the technology industry in Pennsylvania, I am keenly aware of the need for a highly-skilled, well-trained, and motivated workforce. At the Technology Council of Pennsylvania, we are strong advocates for advancements in and the promotion of S.T.E.M. education, as well as career and technical training, in order to prepare our young people to succeed in the 21st Century, global economy. That is why we support the work of Pennsylvania’s Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs) and the critical role they play in today’s education community. For nearly 70 years, CTSOs have been able to extend teaching and learning through a variety of targeted programs, public-private partnerships and leadership development initiatives that produce technically advanced, employable students to meet the needs of this country’s diverse employer base. Today, the work of CTSOs has never been more valuable as our economy demands workers with a strong understanding of science, technology, engineering and math concepts as well as hands-on technical expertise. The co-curricular approach of CTSOs uniquely positions these organizations to enhance student skill sets and better prepare them to excel in their chosen careers. In order for Pennsylvania and the United States to not only compete, but succeed on a global stage, we need to ensure that the very technology and innovation companies that are driving this global economy have the availability of a well-qualified workforce.
