ACCIS 2021 Summer Institute Schedule 2021 Virtual Summer Institute Schedule Many thanks to our Presenting Partner, Compass Education Group Sunday, June 27 5:00 - 5:45 ET / 2:00 - 2:45 PT First-timers Session If this is your first SI, or your first ACCIS event ever, we’re thrilled to have you join us to meet some of our member-leaders to answer any questions about ACCIS or Summer Institute before our official program kicks off tomorrow. Monday, June 28 11:15 - 11:45 am ET / 8:15 - 8:45 am PT Opening/Welcome Join ACCIS Executive Director Emmi Harward and co-chairs Lisa Clay (The Out-of-Door Academy) and Lesley Klecan (St. Mary’s School) as we kick off our virtual Summer Institute. 12:00 - 1:00 pm ET / 9:00 - 10:00 am PT Keynote Speaker - Nicole Brittingham Furlonge, PhD Professor and Director of the Klingenstein Center, Teachers College Columbia University Thank you to Revolution Prep for sponsoring our Keynote! Listening as We Counsel: Responsive Practice for College Counseling Leadership How might listening play a transformative role in our practices? For this generative session, we will spend a good deal of time collaborating and listening with one another. As we do so, we will tune in particularly to equity, inclusion, social action, and belonging work in our schools and our college counseling practices. Drawing from Zora Neale Hurston's notion of the power of "hungry listening," Nicole will explore this ethical mode of engagement and its potential for creating enduring change in schools and, in particular, the systems and practices we design for student and family engagement in the college search process. 1:30 - 2:30 pm ET / 10:30 - 11:30 am PT Session 1 Beyond Borders: Promoting Access to International Universities Tiffani Hooper, United Nations International School and Maude Bond, The Cate School Higher education in the United States is one of the most expensive tertiary systems in the world. Countries like Canada and the Netherlands provide affordable options for students looking for quality education at a reasonable cost. These opportunities are crucial for low-income, first-generation, and international students in need of more moderately priced university choices and a potential path to citizenship. Whether it is a dual enrollment or joint program, a specialized degree or American university campus abroad, we will explore how to research and apply to higher education programs around the world, and examine the barriers for high-achieving, under-resourced students in considering international university options. 1 Session 1, continued 1:30 - 2:30 pm ET / 10:30 - 11:30 am PT Parents of First-Gen Students: Creating Programming and Community Gabrielle McColgan, Castilleja School; Alyson Tom, Castilleja School; Alexis Richardson, Crystal Springs Uplands School; and Jasmin Taylor, Francis Parker School How can we better support the parents and guardians of our first-generation college students? Hear from three schools in different stages of implementing parent programming and community building to ensure that all parents and guardians feel empowered to support their children as they apply to college. COVID-19 and International Student Challenges Moira McKinnon, Berwick Academy; Radha Mishra, Hun School; and Chris Miller, Sandy Spring Friends School Our international students have faced a unique set of circumstances throughout the pandemic. From remote learning in different time zones, to heightened challenges and stress around standardized testing, have these students been disadvantaged in college admissions? If so, how can we adjust our practices to support our international students in the best ways possible? This session will explore the dynamics facing students from multiple global regions, the impact of test-optional on their application process, and the challenges they may face in a post-COVID admissions world. 2:30 - 3:30 pm ET / 11:30 - 12:30 pm PT Break 3:30 - 4:30 pm ET / 12:30 - 1:30 pm PT Session 2 So.....Now What? Post-SPGP/CEPP/DoJ Ethics Landscape in College Counseling Jonah O’Hara, St. Stephen’s Episcopal School; Matt Lane, Branson School; Ruby Bhattacharya, Barnard College Is May 1 still a universal reply date? Do ED agreements mean anything anymore? What do you do when you see NACAC and affiliate members acting in their institutional self-interest, leaving students and families to pay the price? Two ACCIS members on the NACAC Admission Practices National Committee will partner with an affiliate Admission Practices Chair to discuss where we are today, what you can do, and how you can support your families. DTA Today. and Tomorrow: Taking Data from Stats to Stories Janet Weller, Roland Park Country School; Gregg Murray, The Hun School of Princeton; Sandra Sohne-Johnston, St. Anne’s-Belfield School; Louis Trujillo, Saint Ann’s School; John Reilly, Trinity School Have you ever wondered how to make the data stories of our profession more accessible to your school community? Are you eager to hear key takeaways from the Data Trends and Analytics Committee's DTA Today webinars? Do you have data trend ideas you'd like the committee to explore? If so, the DTA Committee invites you to join a conversation about what we learned by hosting DTA Today webinars this year. In this interactive session, we'll share our stories, ask which ones you want to hear, and discuss what's next! 2 Session 2, continued 3:30 - 4:30 pm ET / 12:30 - 1:30 pm PT Be You to Find Them: How Authenticity Enhances the Counseling Relationship Pamela Ambler, Pace Academy; Jessica Hardy, St. George's Independent School; and Julie Carter, Episcopal School of Jacksonville While the key components of what makes a healthy relationship - trust, respect, vulnerability, support - have not changed, the conditions of engagement are absolutely different during a double pandemic within the college search process. With the shared experience that “netiquette” challenges us to make meaningful connections, let’s discuss creative methods for building and maintaining authentic relationships with families to attempt an equitable college search. Presenters will discuss active listening, thoughtful surveying and assessments, strategic visibility as well as professional vulnerability. Bring your ideas as well! Connecting with Students Where They Are (on Social Media) Berta Liao `Iolani School; Céleste Surís-Rosselli, The Baldwin School of Puerto Rico; Allison Camp, The Hockaday School; Jim Sargent, The Bush School; and Betsy Barry, Western Reserve Academy This past year has made even more clear the necessity of connecting with students through an inclusive, comprehensive communications strategy. Social media offers a more organic platform to spotlight a diverse range of educational and career paths, voices, and perspectives. How can we effectively utilize this platform? In this session, we will introduce teens' social media preferences and then focus on how we utilize Instagram to engage and educate. Besides sharing what works and what hasn't, we'll also delve into the mechanics of developing and implementing a social media communications plan. Come share your experiences and brainstorm exciting content to powerfully connect with your community! Tuesday, June 29 11:00 am - 12:00 pm ET / 8:00 - 9:00 am PT Session 3 Finding Your People: The Importance of Connection, Mentorship, and Creating a Community Julia Baker, Moses Brown School; Juan Acosta, The Westminster Schools; and Matt Mettille, Menlo School After meeting 15 years ago in graduate school, these three ACCIS members continue to be close friends. Along the way, they have leaned on each other’s experiences, opportunities, networks, and friendships as a way to find joy and longevity in the field. They live in different parts of the country, work in different office settings, and seek out different professional opportunities. This session will illuminate the importance of peer mentorship and how camaraderie outside one’s own school can strengthen and lengthen the career of a college counselor in independent schools. We will also discuss the particular importance of mentorship and support as it relates to issues of DEI as panelists speak to their experiences in BIPOC and white allyship spaces with colleagues beyond their own schools. You will learn how to find others with shared experiences and how to get involved outside your immediate school community to advance DEI initiatives and stay energized in the profession. 3 Session 3, continued 11:00 am - 12:00 pm ET / 8:00 - 9:00 am PT Pack your Bags: College Counseling Overseas Anne Richardson, The American School in London; Chemeli Kipkorir, Shanghai American School; Bridget Herrera, American International School of Dhaka Have you ever thought about working abroad? Join a discussion with three college counselors who have ventured abroad, working in such diverse places as South Africa, the UK, Bangladesh, China, and Brazil. Explore the personal and professional joys, challenges, possibilities, and practicalities of working in multiple school systems, curricula, languages, and cultures with a globally mobile population. From Idea to Implementation: Creating, Engaging, and Promoting a College Counseling Advisory Board Michelle O’Donnell, Lancaster Country Day School; Ellen Deitrich, The Hill School; and Corinne Logan, St. Joseph's Preparatory School Many college admission offices maintain their own advisory board, but what happens when the idea is reversed and high schools are the ones asking colleges for their insights and ideas? This session will feature three different schools that have created and implemented their own college counseling advisory boards. What was the creation process like, what were the goals, and how did it go? And what did the schools learn about different aspects of the community and their own departments by applying a DEI lens in their approach? Join us as we discuss our advisory boards and how feedback helped each school improve their work with different populations. Stress, Anxiety and Student Psychological Health: Root Causes and Approaches for Success - A Case Study Jeffrey Durso-Finley, Lawrenceville School and Holly Burks Becker, Lawrenceville School Student psychological unease and stress in our schools seems to increase annually.

  • May 26, 2021 Dear Whitfield School Community: on Behalf of the Board
    Whitfield School 175 S. Mason Road Saint Louis, Missouri 63141 (314) 434-5141 www.whitfieldschool.org May 26, 2021 Dear Whitfield School Community: On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I am pleased to announce that Chris Cunningham has accepted our invitation to serve as the next Head of Whitfield School, effective July 1, 2022. As you know, John Delautre will be retiring at the end of the 2021-2022 academic year after 10 years of outstanding service to our School, and we will enjoy his leadership for the next fourteen months, thus ensuring a smooth transition. Beginning in January 2021, the Search Committee, chaired by Karen Myers, worked with search consultants Nat Conard and Deirdre Ling of Educators’ Collaborative, and reviewed the credentials of candidates from throughout the U.S. and abroad. The Committee narrowed the pool of candidates to eight individuals who were invited for a confidential round of virtual interviews. Subsequently, four finalists and spouses/partners visited the campus for comprehensive two-day interviews. On May 20, the Search Committee selected Chris Cunningham as its nominee to the Board of Trustees to serve as the next Head of School. The Trustees unanimously ratified this recommendation at a Board meeting on May 25. Chris has spent the past twenty-five years in independent school education. Receiving a bachelor’s degree in Modern Thought and Literature from Stanford University in 1989, he graduated Phi Beta Kappa with Distinction and Honors. He went on to complete a Ph.D. in English from Duke University in 1996. Beginning his independent school teaching career as a 9th and 11th grade English teacher at Montclair Kimberley Academy, Chris later taught at Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart and Princeton Day School before joining the faculty at The Lawrenceville School in Lawrenceville, NJ, where he is currently the Assistant Head of School and Dean of Faculty, having served since 2003 as English teacher, Head of House, Advisor, and Varsity Coach.
