These and other relevant publications, such as alumni directories, are listed in this guide by the school name under High Schools. Some of the college yearbooks and alumni directories are stored in our Closed Stacks. They can be retrieved in minutes and the staff is happy to do so. Elementary, grammar and middle schools?

Sem Snippets Winter 2009-10 Harry B. Schooley and Toni Smith Wilson to Retire hat makes a school truly great? Dedicated teachers. WThe building and its classrooms, the books, computers, schedules, and curriculum are nothing without effective teach- ers. Outstanding educators inspire students to believe that they are capable of greatness. They make their students believe in themselves; and through their own love of learning, enable these students to find joy in learning. This year two extraordinary Buffalo Seminary teachers, Harry B. Schooley and Toni Smith Wilson, will retire. Fresh from Williams College, Harry arrived in Buffalo in 1967, and, except for a five-year hiatus at Cleveland’s Hathaway Brown School, has been a steadfast presence at our school ever since. Toni arrived at Sem with her master’s degree in hand from Case Western University – more than ready to direct her first high-school production. Given their combined tenure of more than 70 years, it is difficult to imagine opening school next fall without them. Who will lead the Hanging of the Greens, or read excerpts from Letter from a Birmingham Jail to remind us of the reason for our Martin Luther King Holiday? Who will interrupt a Morning Meeting announcement to insist Having directed at least 75 distinctive and special productions at Sem, Mrs. Wilson on clarity of voice and proper posture? Who will teach girls how to has consistently brought out the best in every actor. The range of her work includes use drills, saws, and other power tools to build a set? How many Sem great drama, unique international genres, and high melodrama.

Eight members of the class lived on the Lawn, and the group graduated with a cumulative GPA of 3.77. We also celebrated a very impressive accomplishment of a Scholar alumnus, who graduated in 2018 and became the eighth member of the Jefferson Scholars community to win a Marshall Scholarship.
