Rickard, Emeritus [email protected] 440.423.2965 School Community Representatives Jeffrey B. Milbourn ’94 Alumni Association President Nina Fazio Greenberg ’96 Parents’ Association President From the Desk of D. Scott Looney eading up to Hawken’s centennial year in 2015, we spent a lot of time looking back, L assessing, and celebrating our rich history. We learned a lot from that – perhaps most significantly that Hawken’s stance has, from its inception, been forward-focused in its efforts to guide students toward a life of personal and professional fulfillment. Hawken’s most recent statement, “Get Ready,” has effectively positioned us as a change agent for that very same purpose. But we are in the midst of a pivot, and what we are embarking on now involves more than just a message of preparedness. We are no longer getting ready for change; we essentially are the change. This issue of the Review focuses on the change that we represent across several areas: strategic planning, as we aim to fulfill our promise of delivering a real world education; student assessment, as we move toward a mastery and proficiency focused education; and college admissions, as we respond to current trends in that process. In all of these efforts, we strive to make learning and education more authentic and accessible, thereby paving the way toward a higher plane of life for the next generation. I hope you are as excited about the possibilities and promise of these changes as I am. Sincerely, D. Scott Looney Head of School Editor’s Note In keeping with the theme of change and our forward-focused perspective, we are making plans to refresh the look and feel of the Review beginning with the next issue. While most of the changes will be visual and design related, we are shifting our approach to Class Notes. Instead of alternating between even and odd classes in the two annual issues, we will be collecting Class Notes from all classes, even and odd, to be published once a year in the same issue. Make plans to send your updates to your class agent for inclusion in the Winter 2019 issue of the Review. We hope you will find these changes helpful and refreshing! Hawken’s Strategic Plan n behalf of the Board of Trustees, I am happy to share best practices. Maintaining Hawken’s position as a thought Owith you Hawken’s 2018 Strategic Plan, designed to leader demands that we fulfill our goal of organizational guide us in our work over the next five years. excellence and pay particular attention to the well-being of community members, use of time, compensation, and more. While we have made tremendous strides meeting the goals established in our 2012 strategic plan, many are works in The updated strategic plan also includes some new areas progress that will require additional attention in the years of focus identified by sub-goals. Now that our merger with ahead for them to be fully realized and implemented. As Birchwood is about to enter year three, we are dedicated you will see, our focus is on “fulfilling,” “deepening,” “refining,” to finding new ways to foster a spirit of one community “maximizing,” and “securing” goals that are already well among and between our campuses; we plan to explore underway. For example, moving Hawken to a stronger fiscal and implement ways to make learning more personalized, position is part of every strategic plan because it is essential with an increased focus on mastery and student choice; we to our ability to withstand potential setbacks in our nation’s intend to enrich our programming in athletics and team- economy and continue to fund initiatives that will keep based activities; and we will continue to develop more Hawken at the forefront of independent education. Likewise, experiential, hands-on learning opportunities to maximize staying abreast of new advancements in technology and student preparation for the real world.

Because the development of these traits and families for their continued support as we work together continues to provide the foundation of a Hawken education, to make these strategic priorities a reality. We are confident the board has decided that it is time to devote more that focusing on these areas will secure the future of Hawken institutional time and energy to a particularly relevant aspect School as a leader and innovator in a world that desperately of Fair Play in today’s society, social justice.
