Ericksen This issue of Accents celebrates the wonderful, multi-faceted life Lori E. Fields of ASL and delves into the heart of how we look at the School’s Alexander M. Knaster educational program—the curriculum. Donna M. Lancia Mary Marsh In many ways, curriculum can be defined as anything and everything Karsten N. Moller Sanjay H. Patel that happens for students during a school day. The central experience William A. Plapinger of the living mission statement is in the classroom. But what we Victoria K.

Susman And because time is so precious, ASL educators keep the important William T. Tucker William H. Voge questions front and center: What should students know, do, and understand? Educator and psychologist Jerome Brunner clearly states Advisor to the Board of Trustees Richard A. Bailey in The Process of Education, “We might ask, as a criterion for any subject taught in school, whether, when fully developed, it is worth The American School in London Foundation an adult’s knowing, and whether having known it as a child makes a William A. Obenshain, President person a better adult.” And what is our answer to that question when Barbara G. Coloney, Vice President we consider that our current students will be in full career stride in Coreen R. Hester, Head of School Julie Alexandre 2040 and beyond? Albert D. Angel Daniel F. Coughlin In this issue, Robyn Chapel, our Director of Curriculum and Instruction, Timothy Craighead answers these, and other, questions in her article about curriculum Brad F. England review.

Fields Head of School 2 The American School in London Accents Fall ’10 3 Letters to the Editor Clockwise from top William Voge Alexander M. Knaster Andrew Bentley November 2009 Donna Lancia Dear Editor, It has been years since I last trod upon any ASL grounds, and I am sure that things are much different now than they were when I was there (1977–85). I felt that the article in the Fall ’09 Accents on third culture children was incredibly meaningful to me and probably to many past and present students. While I spent only seven years at ASL, I had lived merely the first six months of my life in the United States when I returned to Houston, TX, for university in 1991. The world has gotten smaller since then, but the cultural challenges that one faces when coming “back” can be considerable. It is more than simply explaining, “Where are you from?” but also dealing with people with less knowledge and acceptance of other cultures. Since landing back in the States in 1991, I have yet to move city, let alone country, but still the wanderlust developed in my youth rears itself frequently with a desire to get off this continent.
