�Dear Friends,
I am excited to introduce this
first issue of "The BellTower,”
our new school magazine.
Just as the tall and compell­
ing new structure in the cir­
cle on campus has become
a focal point for School
gatherings and activities, so
will this publication bring
together news and informa­
tion, ideas and debate for
parents, alumnae/i and
friends of Oregon Episcopal
School. Both will serve us
well, I feel, as we make our
way with renewed con­
fidence and clear vision into
the early years of the next
millennium.

You may read about the
history of the Bell Tower in
this issue, and about Blair
Rosenlund ’75, whose
memorial plaque is now
mounted on the rock in the
gardens surrounding the new
Tower. And you may read
about this new structure as
well, its design by Blair's
classmate Alexandra Zim­
mer, and its donation by
Cecil and Sally Drinkward,
who have generously served
this wonderful School for

years as parents, grand­
parents and trustees. Cecil
was a member of the Board
of Trustees from 1983 to
1990 and President from
1986 to 1988.
And you may read about the
bell itself, a symbol that has
been with the School for
years, and that we honor
now for the role it plays in
unifying the past and the
present, as it rings in the
future. Our 5th graders rang
the bell on opening day, one
clear peal for each year of
our history. This tradition
began at St. Helens Hall in
the perhaps simpler pioneer­
ing days of the nineteenth
century and continues at
Oregon Episcopal School in
the madly complex 1990s.

you catch the spirit of sup­
port for OES, as I have dur­
ing my first year as
Headmaster.

What will my second year
bring? Well, record enroll­
ment for one. We have open­
ed this fall with 672 students,
including an Upper School of
195. We have purposely
maintained our attractive
teacher: student ratio, our
small classes and the close
personal attention that
parents and students seek
here.

The year will also bring con­
tinued long-range planning.
OES/21, or OES for the 21st
Century, is in full swing, with
some 20 committees and
task forces focussing on
issues that the policy com­
mittees identified last year.
Reports and recommenda­
tions are due in the spring of
1992, when we will mold and
present the Plan that will
guide us into the next
century.

And the year will bring our
continued dedication to
young people and their
growth and development:
that’s what Bishop Morris’s
bell has been ringing for all
these years, and that’s what
it continues to remind us of
today.
Sincerely,

“...you may read
about the bell itself,
a symbol that has
been with the School
for years, and that
we honor now for
the role it plays in
unifying the past and
the present, as it
rings in the future.”

This inaugural issue also
presents "The Mustard
Seed," our Annual Report of
Giving for 1990-91. I hope

The New

campus focal
point —
“It’s so tall. It soars.”
“It really shows off the bell.
Sounds different too.”
“It’s supposed to rust, isn’t it that’s core-10, I think, a selfsealing metal?”

brought by sailing ship around
Cape Horn in 1870-71, has moved
with the School from one location
to the next. The first free-standing
Bell Tower was constructed in
1969-70 - on the School’s 100th
Anniversary - at the Raleigh Hills
campus. Over the years, traditions
grew around the symbolic ringing
of the bell. In the early 1960s,
Seniors rang the bell at the end of
the year — one toll for each year
of the School’s existence. Today,
fifth graders perform that rite at
Opening Day ceremonies.

A dedication ceremony for the new
OES Bell Tower honoring the
Drinkwards, as well as the
dedication of the Blair Rosenlund
Memorial, is planned for
November 1 at 1:50 pm.

“Look, there are 3 sets of
stairs.”
“Oh, it’s beautiful . .
Funded by a gift from former
Trustee and parent Cecil Drinkward
and his wife, Sally Drinkward, the
new OES Bell Tower does indeed
soar. Up from the center of the
Bell Tower Circle, 3 pillars of
core-10 steel rise from a stone
rubble base to embrace a cross of
Alaskan Yellow Cedar, which
supports the bell. The three pillars,
three-sided base and three
staircases were designed to
symbolize the Trinity.

The new tower was designed by
Alumna Alexandra ('Allie”) Zimmer
'76 to coordinate with the School's
existing architecture. Allie, who
attended OES for 14 years,
graduated from the University of
Oregon in 1984 with a B.A. in
interior architecture. She has
experience in all stages of
residential and commercial design,
from schematic development to
construction documents. Allie has
worked for Charles Lester
Associates, Russ Watson
Associates, Henry Taylor
Architects and The Design
Partnership, all of San Francisco,
California. She recently relocated
to Portland.

Blair Rosenlund
remembered
When Blair Rosenlund ’75 was kill­
ed in an auto accident on April 9,
1976, it seemed fitting that her
friends remember her in a special
way.
In November of that year, the OES
Bell Tower had blown down in gale
force winds, damaging the yoke
and destroying the tower. The bell
survived intact. Janelle Jarman ’76
and the students in Joe Snyder’s
wood crafts class designed and
built a new tower that was
dedicated on March 5, culminating
a week of Bicentennial celebra­
tions.

The St. Helen’s Bell
The famous old bell of St. Helen's hall,
which was moved Monday to make way
for workmen starting construction on a
$70,000 wing to the school building, was
not perturbed, one may feel certain, by
being lowered and hauled around. It is
used to that by now. Several times since
its arrival in 1870, as a gift from Bishop
B Wistar Morris’ former congregation in
Germantown, Pennsylvania, it has suf­
fered removal. It knows by now that it
will ring out again over a larger and better
school.
There have been many changes but no
retrogression in the history of St. Helen’s
hall. When Bishop Morris came to Oregon
in 1869 as successor to Bishop Scott in this
Episcopal diocese, it was with his plans for
the hall already laid. Even to the name.
It was to be named for the mother of Con­
stantine the Great, one of history’s most
famous Christian converts. And that des­
ignation was particularly fitting for a
school from the windows of which the
mountain St. Helens could be seen.
The beginnings of the hall were timely.
Bishop Scott had managed a school at
Milwaukie during the early and middle
1860s (Spencer hall), but it was toe *ar
from Portland and had been discontinued
in 1866. Meanwhile the educational situa­
tion in Portland was badly disorganized,
with the idea of free public schools just
getting started. Bishop Morris opened St.
Helen’s quickly after his arrival, and from
that day to this it has filled a vital need
in the community. At first its appeal was
popular. Then as the free public schools
developed, particularly the high schools,
St. Helen's took on more the character
the latter-day private school, justifying it­
self by its high standards and careful su­
pervision of student work. Within the past
few years it has added a junior college to
the other grades from kindergarten up.
It has a distinguished list of graduates and
a high position on the accredited list of
preparatory schools.
The hall had its early development on
the block now occupied by the city hali.
A new school was completed on Vista ave­
nue in 1891. On September 3, 1914, the
hall was half ruined by fire, and makeshift
quarters had to be resorted to. In 1918,
a three-year lease was taken on the old
Portland academy at Thirteenth and Mont­
gomery, and in 1921 this building was pur­
chased outright. And all the time the old
bell was kept tolling, wherever it was hung.

Blair’s friends and family dedicated

■

When the wooden structure
became old and unsafe, it seemed
equally fitting that a member of
the Class of ’76 - Alexandra “Allie"
Zimmer - design the new one.
Blair’s memorial plaque moved to
a rock in the Bell Tower Circle still at the center of campus life
where students come and stay a
while and go. Blair would have
liked that, say her friends and
family.

confidence is expanded, and they

Inside the OES
Boarding Program
— an interview with
Hamilton Gregg

Hamilton
Gregg

Hamilton Gregg joined the OES
Administrative team as Director of
Residence and Assistant to the
Headmaster. A native of Colorado,
he learned to love the mountains
and “all things wild’’ before
heading East to boarding school at
St. Mark’s in Massachusetts. He
returned to the West to earn a
degree in political science at the
University of Colorado in Boulder.
After a variety of positions with
companies ranging from invest­
ment counselors to mining opera­
tions, Hamilton settled at The
Thacher School in Ojai, California,
working in admissions. He recently
earned his M.Ed. from Harvard
University. Having “settled with
the ghosts in the East,’’ Hamilton is
putting down roots in Portland
where he is happily revitalizing the
boarding program at OES.

The BellTower: Why should a
parent send high school
students to Boarding School?
Hamilton Gregg: First of all, it’s
an opportunity for a student to
grow mentally, physically and
spiritually. Students have a chance
to investigate, to live in a com­
munity that is small and deman­
ding but provides access to the
outdoors, has commitment to ser­
vice and, in the process, asks
them to take responsibility for their
own actions.

Mentally, we can provide a high
level of academic challenge.

Physically, at OES everyone par­
ticipates - we have athletics teams
for everyone who wants to play not just varsity athletics.
Oregon Episcopal
School

Spiritually, boarding students learn
about themselves, their self-

One of the greatest things about
boarding school is that kids learn
to live with others. They will be
friends FOREVER!
The BellTower: What makes a
good boarding school?

Hamilton: Good boarding schools
have an openness in their environ­
ment that allows teenagers to ask
questions — along with a struc­
ture that allows them to question
safely. This structure comes from
a synthesis of the dorm parents’
experience and backgrounds. It’s a
collective and dynamic process
that builds on sound principles

And faculty must be accessible —
they live within the boarding com­
munity and show students how
adults from a variety of
backgrounds live successful lives.
The BellTower: It sounds like
good parenting on a larger
scale....
Hamilton: Yes. We aim to teach
things like respect, decorum and
punctuality, in preparation for col­
lege and life. We also offer
“general” parenting based on all of
our backgrounds.
The BellTower: What are the par­
ticular strengths of the OES
program?

Hamilton: It’s small; it can easily
be individualized. There is a
wonderful student:dorm parent
ratio of 5:1 which means students
get a lot of individual attention.
And everyone knows everyone
else.
At OES, unlike some boarding
schools, the size of the day pro­
gram allows kids access to other
backgrounds, homes and friends. It
gives them a wider pool.
And exceptional academics, solid
sports programs and a wonderful
sense of community create an en­
vironment where OES students are
nurtured — where they can take
certain risks. One other advantage
of OES is its proximity to Portland
which provides many opportunities
that a great many schools must
drive longer distances to reach.
10

The BellTower: What do you
think the most important
priorities of the OES program
are?

Hamilton: First, to teach students
to be ongoing learners.
Second, we should help students
learn to take responsibility for
themselves, others and the com­
munity. This process also prepares
them for college and later life.

The BellTower: The OES Boar­
ding Program is clearly expan­
ding — not just in numbers, but
also in scope...

Hamilton: We are trying to attract
a more diverse population. We’re
an international program that
hopes to bring diversity together
for mutual understanding All of
this does not happen overnight.
This is something we will be work­
ing towards for several years.

The BellTower: Have there been
any recent specific changes that
have made the program more
attractive?
Hamilton: We have instituted
several new changes that we hope
will build a stronger community.
First, we are asking students to
take responsibility for themselves
and for the community. In this area
students are assigned morning
jobs that include weekly cleaning
of the common areas, hallways
and outside areas. We hope they
will learn to respect their com­
munity. They also must clean their
room thoroughly once a week.

To further the sense of community,
we have removed the TVs from the
common areas and placed them
with the Dorm Parents. This puts
the pressure on the students to be
creative with their free time, and if
they wish to watch TV, they can
ask a Dorm Parent. The result is a
more family like atmosphere - a
sharing experience. We have
changed the schedule so that the
time will be used more productive­
ly for studying or for social time.
All of this is geared toward an en­
vironment that is structured and
yet conducive without being
restrictive.

ANNUAL REPORT
OF GIVING

1990-91

OREGON EPISCOPAL SCHOO

�Headmaster’s Report
Dear Friends,

It is with great pleasure that we
share with you the OES ANNUAL
REPORT for 1990-91, my first year as
Headmaster at this wonderful school.
This was an excellent year by so
many measures! Our Annual Fund
broke all OES records and topped
a quarter of a million dollars in
unrestricted support for the first
time.
It was a year in which we received
the largest single gift in the modern
history of the School: $500,000 for
the renovation of the Sports and
Recreation Center (SPARC), the old
Hampton Courts, which the School
purchased two years ago.
It was a year in which total giving
to the School reached the $1,127,000
mark.

!

It was a year in which total enroll­
ment topped 650 and we enjoyed the
bittersweet challenge and blessing of
wait-lists at many grade levels.
It was a year in which hundreds of
volunteers made possible the reali­
zation of the stunning new play­
ground, the Aardvark Fun Park.
It was a year for strategic planning.
Some 80 members of the faculty,
students, parents, trustees, alumnae/i
and friends gave time and creativity
and wisdom in the School wide
planning effort, OES/21, or “OES for
the 21st Century.”
It was a year of joy and learning,
growth and excitement, dedication
and revitalizing for our inclusive
student body, our committed faculty,
our selfless Board of Trustees, our
trusting parents and our faithful
alumnae/i.

And for me, it was a year of riding
the steepest learning curve I’ve ever
mounted as I confronted the wonder

of OES and attempted to get to know
our hundreds and hundreds of
family members. I found a school
that is on the threshold of greatness.
Our books are balanced. Our
budgets are wise and productive.
Our plant is receiving the attention
it deserves. Our education is sound
and exciting and in demand.
And, perhaps most important of
all to me: we are willing to look at
ourselves critically, to recommend
change and continued growth and to
plan eagerly for our future in a
world that changes at a dizzy
and bewildering pace, amidst a
Northwest community that is clearly
outpacing other regions in stature,
sophistication, quality of life and
population.
This Annual Report is a positive
testimony to the generosity and
willingness and faith of all of you
who support this school: with your
children, your work, your resources
and your hopes. It is the record of a
year; a photographic slide. Hence,
our presentation can be but twodimensional. Please translate it,
as I do all the time, into the third
dimension as you dwell on the
energy, the excitement and the
sparkle of the people of all ages
whose names and achievements
are recorded here.

If, as H. G. Wells admonished,
“human history becomes more and
more a race between education and
disaster,” then the OES community
is indeed doing its part for the team
we all back to win, and doing it
well indeed.
Sincerely,

Peter W. Stevens

�He port From The President Of The Board Of Trustees
Dear Friends,

The 1990-91 year at OES was a
“year of transition.” We elected a
new president of the Board of
Trustees and installed a new head­
master. This year was also marked
by success in enrollment, annual
giving and educational development.

Under the leadership of our new
headmaster, Peter Stevens, we re­
newed our commitment to the longrange strategies previously approved
by the Board of Trustees and began
the initial implementation of our
strategic plan under the banner
“OES/21.”
Through the dedicated efforts of the
OES Development Tbam guided by
Ed Clark and Brenda Sloan, we
achieved a record level of contribu­
tions to our Annual Fund during the
1990-91 year.

We are very grateful for the support
of the alumnae/i, parents and special
friends of OES who have given so
generously during the past year.
I would like to acknowledge several
major gifts received during the past
year in support of our capital develop­
ment and educational programs.

• Major gifts toward the renovation
and debt retirement of SPARC
provided by Mr. 6= Mrs. Charles A.
Adams, Mr.
Mrs. Peter F. Bechen,
Mr. &lt;5p Mrs. Edwin Hunt, Mr. &amp;
Mrs. William T. C. Stevens and Mr.
Mrs. C. N. Winningstad.
• A $500,000 gift for SPARC renova­
tion given by a dear friend of OES
who wishes to remain anonymous.
• A gift to network the dormitory
residences with the main com­
puter system and to refurbish the
International Student Lounge was
also given anonymously.
• A donation by Thdaki and Sadako
Kawada to fund the Upper School
Global Studies Program.

• A special pledge from Mr.
Mrs.
Cecil Drinkward for the construc­
tion of a new Bell Tbwer that will
serve as a central focal point of the
campus.
One of the greatest strengths of our
School is the level of volunteer sup­
port from our parent community.
During the past year, this expression
of support reached a new level with
Julie Lewis’ and Jana Westlund’s vi­
sion for a children’s park at OES. A
vast team of parents, friends and
donors gave their time, talent and
enthusiasm to this project. Together,
we created the “Aardvark Fun Park”
which will stand for years to come
as a monument to the dedication
and spirit of the OES community.
I would also like to recognize the ef­
forts and dedication of Peter Hoff­
man and his “tennis team” who put
together an extraordinary educa­
tional tennis camp available to our
children as well as the community at
large.
We now begin a new school year
with record enrollment, a strong
financial base and a renewed sense
of direction focused on educational
excellence. As a result of the legacy
of leadership created by Leigh
Stephenson and Cecil Drinkward,
OES is well positioned for future
growth.

I would like to express my personal
thanks and appreciation to the
trustees, educational staff and
parents of OES who have given so
generously of their time to make
this such a special place for our
children. With your continued com­
mitment, I believe that the “best is
yet to come . . ”

Fund drive to raise unrestricted
dollars to supplement the
operating budget. These funds
provide the backbone of our
support and enable OES to re­
tain that special Margin of
Excellence.
During the 1990-91 school
year, over 1000 generous donors
gave to the OES Annual Fund.
Their collective efforts helped
us surpass the quarter-million
mark for the first time in
history: $258,034. We would like
to take this opportunity to
thank and acknowledge their
stewardship of Oregon Episcopal
School.

“Being an OES
Development volunteer
has been a personally
rewarding and
satisfying experience.
I’ve worked with many
wonderful, interesting
people, and I feel very
positive about OES
because of the
experiences that
Brinton and Matt had
there. It is nice to
associate with so many
people who feel the
same and support OES
so generously”

‘7 became involved in
the Alumni Association
when I moved back to
Portland from
California. Making all
the new friends and
renewing many old
friendships has been
very rewarding. I feel
satisfied knowing that
I have contributed, in
some small way, to
help the School that I
enjoyed so much when
I went there, and where
my granddaughter
enjoyed her high school
years' ’

“Part of our job as
parents is to get
involved. For us, being
volunteers has been a
great way to keep in
touch with the School
and to see what
programs our children
are benefiting from,
first hand. It is an
opportunity to meet
and work with some
fantastic people, and
really make a
difference.”

�The Alumni Board President’s Corner
By Meridel Prideaux,
1991-92 Alumni Board President

The President’s Corner is a new
feature appearing in the Bell
Tower. Each issue will be written
by Meridel to inform our alumni
and community of the activities
and commitment that the Alumni
Board has to OES.

This is an exciting time to be part
of the OES community! This year,
the Alumni Association has made
some changes. In September, the
Alumni Board held its first monthy
meeting of the year By holding
monthly meetings, we hope to
increase the number of activities
that involve alumni and the OES
community. For the first time,
members of the board will attend a
day long “planning” retreat in
October.

I would like to invite you to attend
our 122nd Founder’s Day luncheon
on November 13, at the
Multnomah Athletic Club. The day
promises to be an exciting one!
Our guest speaker is John Nance,
a photo journalist who will address
the excitement of today’s changes
in the world and its effect on
today’s youth. For the first time, an
alumna/us will be awarded the
Bishop Benjamin Wistar Morris
Distinguished Service Award.

At this time, the Alumni Office is
working to create a new and
revised version of the Alumni
Directory. We hope to have this
wonderful book completed by the
spring. If you haven’t completed
your directory survey, please take
a moment and fill out a form in the
back of this issue of the Bell

Tower. The directory will be a great
source of information and
networking for everyone.

Plans are being made for the 125th
year celebration to take place in
1994. One of the goals for the
alumni is to raise a birthday
endowment gift to the school of
$125,000. If you would like to be
involved in this once in a lifetime
event, please contact me or the
Alumni Office.
As you see, we have ambitious
goals and plans for the year.
Please join us, we would love to
meet you! If you have any
suggestions on how we can serve
our alumni community, please call
me.

A Letter from
the Headmaster
A School in the
Episcopal Tradition
Dear Friends,

This September Belltower is excit­
ing to me for at least three rea­
sons. First is the inclusion of the
“Mustard Seed”, the annual honor
roll of giving to Oregon Episcopal
School, a record, in this case, of a
banner year of positive volunteer
support for people and programs
at OES. Second is this Volume II of
the Belltower itself, an introduction
to a new year, while embracing a
celebration of the year past.

Third—and most importantly—is
this chance to share with you what
it means to live, work and study in
this wonderful and special school.
One of the several standing com­
mittees of the Board of Trustees is
the Religious Life Committee.
Chaired by Bishop Robert Ladehoff
and US Chaplain Corbet Clark,
committee members include
trustees, all three OES chaplains,
parents and faculty. Last year, this
committee spent many fascinating
(and sometimes contentious!)
hours discussing the “nature of an
Episcopal School”. Corbet wrote a
marvelous draft essay, and coura­
geously submitted it to the full
committee for comment. The result
was considerable debate centering
on spiritual, ecclesiastical, histori­
cal and pedagogical issues, with
the ultimate adoption of “The Idea
of an Episcopal School”.

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

I want to share this with you
because I believe it to be an extra­
ordinary statement of the life and
purpose of a school. The docu­
ment itself is lengthy; I’d be
delighted to send it in its entirety to
any who call or write my office. For
now, let me share an edited sum­
mary. I do so, because I believe
that this captures the essence of
OES. Certainly, it is why I am here,
why so many families have been
here and are still here today, and
why the Mustard Seed in this issue
is so replete with recognition of
voluntary support:

be valued and respected and that
the school would like to be broadly
inclusive of the community it
serves. It looks for the values that
unite people rather than those that

divide.
2. An Episcopal school values indi­
vidual freedom and diversity of
belief, and authority is exercised
loosely. It allows considerable lati­
tude both to faculty and students
in their work, encourages indepen­
dent thought and action and fos­
ters participatory decision making.
It is also guided by the ancient
“conciliar” principle that the “right
way" is found in careful delibera­
tion and consensus.

1. An Episcopal school is compre­
hensive and inclusive. There is
considerable room for differences
of practice and differences of
belief, so long as there is agree­
ment on fundamentals. The
Episcopal Church encourages
respect for others’ beliefs. An
Episcopal school expects not to
discriminate on the basis of race,
creed, etc. and to actively seek out
faculty and students of diverse
backgrounds and traditions in the
belief that they bring something to

3. The unity of an Episcopal school
is based on ritual and tradition
rather than doctrine. There will like­
ly be no single dogma to which all
subscribe, no list of rules that
define who the school is as a com­
munity. It values deeply its own tra­
ditions without getting stuck in
them, recognizing that these
embody the common values of the
school community.

4. An Episcopal school values rea­
son as a way to true understand­
ing. Because there is no human
authority to tell us how to think, the
responsibility to reason our way to
understanding becomes essentially
an individual enterprise, which in
turn underlines the idea of respect
for individual beliefs. It believes
that the truth will make us free and
that God has given us the freedom
to seek truth without fearing where
it may lead.
An Episcopal education is not
indoctrination, nor about enforcing
an unquestioning acceptance of a
foreordained set of doctrines. This
begins with the premise that facul­
ty, students, administrators and
staff are a community of explorers
who need to continue to learn and
grow. It encourages all students,
faculty and staff to follow ques­
tions wherever they lead, to use
their critical faculties and to value
the learning and thought inherited
from the past. An Episcopal school
raises issues of meaning, identity
and ultimate truth at every oppor­
tunity in all parts of its program but
also acknowledges the limits of
human reason.

Founded in 1869, Oregon Episcopal School is
located on a 59-acre campus in Portland’s
southwest hills. It is the only co-ed boarding
school in the Pacific Northwest that holds
membership in the National Association of
Independent Schools and is one of the oldest
Episcopal schools in the United. States.
OES offers a demanding, college prep­
aratory, liberal arts curriculum to students in
pre-school through high school. Classes are
small, and the pace is challenging. Call (503)
246-7771 for more information.

And so our OES objectives are
nothing less than this. Everything
we do, in one way or another, is
geared to this. Teaching, counsel­
ing, coaching, management, plan­
ning, governance, building, fundraising—all emanate from this.
How special this is!
And how much more special could
our mission and purpose be?

5. An Episcopal school has a con­
cern for the well-being of society,
and makes that concern part of its
program. The school helps stu­
dents understand that they do not
exist apart from society, that soci­
ety’s issues are their issues, and
that they are called upon to
respond to the needs of others.
Students are encouraged not just
to share what they have with oth­
ers but to understand the issues
and complexities of society, to
consider what their individual and
corporate responsibilities are, and
to take action.

On the cover Tara!

6. Above all, an Episcopal school is
founded on love. This is not a
peculiarly Anglican idea but so fun­
damental to the Christian view that
it can be overlooked. Love for stu­
dents, for their value as children of
God, for their unique gifts, must
undergird everything we do. We
must act out of love, teach love,
model love and love one another in
our community above all else, or all
else will be meaningless.

Fencingaje^
Fencing is steeped in history.
Descended from the courts and
battlefields of Europe, aristocrats
and militia alike were trained in the
use of the foil, rapier and sabre.
These weapons and the rules used
today evolved from facts accumu­
lated over 300 years.
The foil, descendent of the court
sword used by aristocrats, is light­
weight and features a rectangular
blade. When using a foil, fencers
must have the right to hit and must
hit in a limited target area. Both
weapon and rules change when an
individual fences with the epee.
Known to earlier generations as
the rapier, the epee was used by
the militia. Spectators new to the
sport can identify the epee by its
triangular blade and the fact that
opponents may be touched any­
where on the body. A third
weapon, the sabre, was used by
warriors on horseback. Soldiers
were careful to strike their oppo­
nent only from the waist up
because they did not want to risk
striking the horse, which was con­
sidered part of the prize. Hence
fencers using the sabre must strike
only in a designated area.

Though Hollywood has brought us
countless images of exciting duels
in which one or more people are
injured or maimed, injuries are
almost non-existent in fencing.
When students at OES begin to
fence, they are well-versed in
proper safety; in fact, 98% of the
rule book for fencing deals with
safety rules, and modern technolo­
gy continues to make the sport
safer every year. Fencing uniform
designers and manufacturers
recently added kevlar, a light
weight artificial fibre, to help resist
point penetration.

When fencing competitively, a
sophisticated scoring system
assures that only the best fencers
advance to the direct elimination
round. At the start of the meet,

▲ OESfencers demonstrate properfencing technique.
participants are placed in pools.
Each fencer then challenges oppo­
nents in their pool. At the end of
these matches, the number of vic­
tories are tallied; then judges tally
the number of touches scored vs.
the number of touches received
(each time a fencer’s tip touches
her/his opponent in the prescribed
area, they receive a point).
Competitors are then ranked by
strength, and the top 32 advance
to the direct elimination round.
Participants must win each match
at this point to advance.
At OES the fencing program is run
by Colleen Olney, a former com­
petitive fencer. “Fencing is 50%
physical and 50% mental,”
explains Colleen. As part of their
training, fencers typically run
sprints, train with weights (to
strengthen rather than build) and
participate in one or more other
sports.

The mental training can take years.
“First, you never use a negative
term,” explains Colleen. “You can’t
tell students they were ‘wrong’
because you always want them
thinking along a positive line. When

4

they are very young, I have stu­
dents fill out a form that asks them
to define how they won or lost a
match. This gets them thinking
about analyzing themselves and
their opponents.

“After 3-4 years of training, I begin
to use imagery. They begin to
imagine themselves doing a per­
fect move against an opponent.
Because all of this is introduced
slowly, when they are young, they
don’t realize it’s all part of sports
psychology. Eventually it becomes
second nature.”
Successful fencers share a number
of characteristics. “The sport
attracts individualists who are
assertive and can think for them­
selves,” says Colleen, who attribut­
es much of her success with the
OES fencing program to what stu­
dents are taught in OES classes—
“concentration, individual thinking,
independence, critical thinking,
assertiveness and hand/eye coor­
dination.

“OES is a fantastic school. I’ve
taught in the public schools, and
there is no discipline. The teachers

�are so overloaded that no matter
how caring they are—and there are
some very caring teachers in the
public schools—you can’t care for
that many kids. After teaching in
the public schools, I come back to
OES, and I just want to hug these
kids.”
Colleen feels that winning should
not be the only motivation for her
students. “I’m trying to teach
something other than just fencing,”
explains Colleen, who strongly
believes fencing is an excellent
avenue for teaching good ethics.
She recalls a particularly hard
fought match last year between
sixth graders Greer Rabiega and
Henry Pruitt in which the judges
missed a touch Greer scored on
Henry. “Even though no one
noticed the touch,” she recalled,
“Henry acknowledged the point. I
was so proud of Henry for

acknowledging that touch." Greer
went on to win the match by one
point.

Whether it is the principles they
learn in fencing, the type of individ­
ual attracted to fencing or some
other unidentifiable factor, Colleen
was not surprised by the results of
a recent poll conducted by the
United States Olympic Committee
(USOC). “The USOC did a survey
which found that members of the
fencing team had the highest level
of education and income of any of
the sports. The level of education
found in most fencers is phenome­
nal. Almost all people who contin­
ue fencing are professionals—
almost everyone has a degree, and
many have doctorates.”
There is much more to fencing
than competition. "It’s an ageless
sport,” says Colleen. “Fencing is

more than just the Olympics—it
has to be. Although the US
Fencing Association has sent peo­
ple in their 40s to the Olympics,
only five women will make the
Atlanta team (in 1996).

“Fencing is fun for families—great
for parents," says Colleen, who
invited parents to SPARC last year
for an evening of fencing. Fourth
grader Veronica Gilbert brought her
mother, Maria-Elaina, and mother
and daughter had a unique oppor­
tunity to fence together. “Kids love
to show parents how to do things,”
Colleen observes. Yet, while the
parent may be new to the sport of
fencing, she points out that, “The
parents can usually beat the kids
because they have longer arms
and the mental edge.
“Fencing is fun for everyone."

OES SOPHOMORE RANKED 21ST IN THE WORLD
Thousands of hours of practice
and competition—as she
advanced through the ranks of
state, regional and national com­
petition to finally qualify at the
international level—preceded
Monique de Bruin’s 21st place fin­
ish at the World Cadet Fencing
Championships in May of this year.

Monique, a sophomore this fall at
OES, says, “First you need talent.
Then you need to be individualis­
tic—when you’re out there fencing,
you can’t blame anyone else if you
are losing. You have to be dedicat­
ed and willing to work very hard,
pushing yourself all the time. Your
coach will push you, but you have
to really want it,” explains
Monique. Really wanting it trans­
lates into at least three hours of
practice 3-4 times a week.
“Both my parents worked, so fenc­
ing was a cheap babysitter. At first,
I didn’t like it. I had to give up my
recess, so I quit. Then I started
watching my brother and sister. It
looked like they were enjoying it,

knows, Monique says, “It’s very
tough for me. I have a hard time
fencing people who are on my
team, let alone my sister. It’s easier
to fence someone you don’t know;
then you don’t have the emotional
issue to deal with, and you can just
concentrate on winning."

OES fencing coach Colleen Olney
echoes this, “I just hate to see that
happen. As a coach, you try to
teach them that the other person is
their opponent. Period. The
stronger competitive drive will win
initially, but after a while, determi­
nation begins to play a part."

so I started again. I really enjoyed it

Today, Monique occasionally finds

and Monique met was at the
Junior Olympics where Claudette
narrowly edged Monique out 6-5,
5-6, 6-5. When she is required to

Where will Monique go from here?
Perhaps the Olympics? “It’s a goal
I’ve always had. My first coach
was an Olympian, and I really
respect that. I know it will be real
hard—the youngest Olympian this
year is 21 and most fencers don’t
reach their peek until 25—but [I
think] it’s realistic."

Wetlands
—another kind of classroom

“The wetlands are very important because they give animals and plants a place to live. The wetlands filter
water...they help create rich and plentiful soil for humans to grow plants on. ”

7 saw a
swallow that
seemed to
follow me... ”
— Melissa,
3rd grade

Taught by John LeCavalier, the
Wetlands Ecology course gives
students a chance to be teachers
in its wetland interpretation seg­
ment. In the late spring, the
seniors, who have been studying
the subject intensely, take OES
third and sixth grade classes into
the OES Wetlands for hands-on
instruction in soils, hydrology,
birds, beaver, plants and aquatic
macro-invertebrates.

Wetlands Ecology also involves
values. “Wetlands are a huge issue
all over the world," says John.
"The students struggle with the
same issues—why are wetlands
important?”

John says that although everybody
has fun teaching, “they get so
tired. At the end, they realize how
much they themselves have
learned.” For example, the class
involves what John calls a “serious
section" on plant taxonomy, a peri­
od of intense information absorp­
tion. “We go into the field and
return with 60 to 80 samples and in
the end do a laboratory practical
exam—name this, what is its major
characteristic? It’s intense.”

u... The lights reflects
and I reject
The birds dance
and I have a chance
The Beavers cut
but it hits—thud
The wind blows
and I flow
The ground soaks
and I moat
The wetlands need to be here
or earth won't be one peace. "
— Jonathan, 6th grade

The yearlong class involves con­
siderable field research and is
challenging because of the amount
of independent work required.

— Gina, 6th grade

It has four components. The bio­
physical monitoring project is a
baseline data collection process,
with students regularly visiting
specified plots in the Wetlands—
they keep track of birds, changes
in plants and water levels. All of the
seniors also complete an indepen­
dent research project using the
database. They occasionally take
field trips to do surveys of other
wetlands. The final component is
the interpretation, or teaching, seg­
ment. Most of the readings are pri­
mary source materials and govern­
ment publications.
"Everyone becomes trained in
careful field research techniques”,
says John. “We use the same
techniques and manuals that pro­
fessionals from Federal, State and
local agencies use. In fact, I’d like
to contract out our services for the
experience.”

For the teaching session seniors
also research how younger
children learn science. “They
have to look at subjects as well
as implications. Should the skits
they use portray a logger as a
bad guy? They are struck by the
power of influence they have
over the younger students. So
instead of a bad guy theme, this
time they came up with a super­
hero—Wetlands Man. The little
kids loved it.”

The wetland interpretation seg­
ment follows a one-day "outdoor
school” model. Students rotate
through the various subjects, and
then later reflect. Some of the
reflection involves answering
questions, or as in the examples,
writing poetry.

The Mind’s Sky with Timothy Ferris, Fri., Nov. 6, 7:30 pm

Looking through the two lenses of neuroscience and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI), Ferris
explores a startling new vision of the “dance” between mind and cosmos, asking whether intelligence - far from
being a product of our world alone - may have a universal currency. His free-wheeling quest into the nature of
consciousness ponders virtual reality computer technology and looks at IT - information theory, a new philosophy of
knowledge and communication. Ferris, a former commentator for National Public Radio's All Things Considered, a
National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize nominee, and Guggenheim Fellow, wrote Coming of Age in the Milky Way.

at OES—
an interview with
College Counselor
Cynthia Doran
Wearing a hot pink sheath and silk
scarf tied over her elegantly graying hair,
the driver deftly turned the black softtop Jeep onto Nicol Road and headed for
campus.
Although she doesn't usually drive a
Jeep, OES College Counselor Cynthia
Doran has had years of practice making
this turn—she was hired by former St.
Helens Hall Headmistress Gertrude
Fariss to teach history and Christian
ethics 27 years ago. The BellTower
recently talked to her about her varied
years at the School.

BellTower: How did you come to OES?

▲ Cynthia Doran
receives congratu­
lations for 25 years
ofservice.

Cynthia Doran: It’s a long story. In
1965, I began teaching Junior histo­
ry, English and religion, which I did
for a couple of years. Back then it
never even occurred to me to com­
bine motherhood with career, so I
quit the Upper School position at
the semester to adopt our son
John, Jr. Gertrude Farris was sur­
prised, but when she asked me to
continue teaching religion once a
week, I said “yes”. Later, when we
adopted Kate, I took a couple of
years off.
Former Headmaster David Leech
asked me if I would consider teach­
ing religion in the Beginning School.
I had young children, and it looked
like a challenge, so I did lots of
research on how kids develop a
sense of religion. It was fun. Then
they needed a 6th grade religion
teacher and I taught that for a cou­
ple of years, before I had our son,
Michael. The next fall I returned to
the Beginning School.
BT: How did you get into college coun­
seling?

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

CD: As a graduate of Wellesley, I
was doing interviews for them as
their College Admissions rep. David
Leech asked me to help out, and
because I loved that sort of stuff, I
jumped at the chance. When Peter

Sipple became Headmaster, he
hired a new college counselor who
moved the office to the library. Two
years later he left mid-year, and I
was asked to fill in. That was about
15 years ago. At the end of the year,
Peter Sipple said "That went so
well, let’s continue,” and there I
was.
BT: What developments have you seen
in college counseling in the last 15
years?

CD: The job itself has grown from
one day a week to essentially full
time. We now have a handbook for
OES students and parents [which
Cynthia wrote], annual college
nights for parents and an elaborate,
well-established introductory semi­
nar for Juniors, called College
Decisions. We keep much better
statistics now—currently I’m work­
ing on a program that will help stu­
dents and parents predict the rela­
tive success of their applications.
Over the years, we’ve also been
working to improve the quality of
materials that accompany college
applications. We’re really able to
convey very effectively the kind of
place that OES is.
BT: How are you involved in profes­
sional organizations?

CD: I have been president of the
Pacific Northwest Council of
College Admissions Counselors,
and I have served on the Western
Regional Board of The College
Board, which is the parent organi­
zation of the Educational Testing
Service that administers the SAT
exams. I also belong to the
Portland Area College Counselors
Consortium, a local network.

BT: Fifteen years must have helped
you build an incredible network of
connections?
CD: Yes. But it’s not so much the
ability to pull strings, as that I am
able to work with the college pro­
fessionals to help kids make the
transition. Colleges also know
about OES. Now, some 80 college
representatives visit campus each
year. The reps are very interested in
our students and in getting a sense
of the School.
BT: What makes our college counseling
program so effective?

CD: OES has made a strong com­
mitment to college counseling. The
School has supported my going to
workshops and my professional

8

involvement. The faculty is very
supportive; they work really hard at
writing letters of recommendation.
They talk to kids about college—all
the time. It’s not just me. Even the
Trustees support the program.
BT: What's the biggest change you've
seen in your years here?

CD: OES has become a much more
informal place. When Mrs. Fariss
walked through the Great Hall 25
years ago, EVERYONE stood up—
not that there were many kids there
since everyone had an assigned
place to be. Uniform regulations
were rigid. And 25 years ago, no
one would have dreamed of calling
me Cynthia.
On my first day of teaching at St.
Helens Hall, all the girls stood up as
I entered my homeroom. I guess I
was so startled that I said "Good
morning, girls". They murmured.
And, stalling for time and inspira­
tion, I said, “Why don’t you say
Good morning, Mrs. Doran’.” I
don’t know how long it took me to
figure out they weren’t going to sit
down until I said “be seated”. The
girls really liked this way of starting
the day, so we did it all year.

BT: What about other changes?
CD: Although 25 years ago girls
went to morning prayer everyday
with their heads covered, the week­
ly religion classes with strong
Christian content were not that
important then. Today, the way we
teach “religion" is real neat. The
classes ARE academic and they
count on student transcripts. The
topics fit our student body. This has
been an appropriate evolution.
BT: What things haven't changed at
OES?

CD: Some of the best things have
remained constant. This School
has always had a sense of commu­
nity—almost like a family. OES also
has a love of—almost celebrates—
the individual. Former teacher
Ruth Rose Richardson [SHH *36]
said to one of her classes that she
“loved all of them". In my job I still
see that. It’s very apparent during
the faculty discussions called
“senior marathons", where we
come up with descriptions which
are used in the student profiles that
accompany college applications.
And, I guess finally, we have a
respect for learning. It’s one of our
keystones. We are able to inculcate
a love of learning.

New faces and places
ummer is a time for person^^^nel changes at OES, and,

^h^in addition to new faces, a
number of people have been busy
switching places and learning
new jobs.
Don’t be surprised when you hear
a new voice on the OES switch­
board this fall. Mary Wright accept­
ed an opening in the Lower School
(LS), and Jill Morrell was hired as
the new OES receptionist. Mary
will be working as a LS secretary.

The LS also welcomed new LS
Head Harvey Zendt when he
arrived on campus in mid-July.
Jane Kenney-Norberg, who earned
her M.S. in Biology from the
University of Oregon, is already
familiar to many OESians for her
work with the OES Extended Care
programs. This fall, Jane will also
be working with 1 -5 graders from
11:00 am to 2:00 pm. Thelma
Lowry will be working full-time as a
teaching assistant in the new fullday kindergarten classes. In the
4th grade, Kathy Narramore will be
returning for her second year, while
Joan Leigh and Doug Whitmore
will be sharing a class and taking
half-year sabbaticals. Joining this
threesome is Merideth Larson, who
most recently taught at Our Lady
of the Lake in Lake Oswego. And
finally, when Lou Paff returns from
his sabbatical this fall, he will coor­
dinate the LS computer and sci­
ence programs.

A number of Middle School (MS)
teachers have been eagerly
preparing to welcome new babies.
Alfreda Harris, who holds a B.A. in
English with an emphasis in
African-American Studies from
UCLA, recently completed an
internship at the Intercultural
Communication Institute as an
Intercultural Communication
Workshop facilitator. She will work
with Becky Tooley and Ellen
Taussig, teaching Toni Holmberg’s
Humanities class until Christmas.
In addition to team-teaching
Humanities, Ellen Taussig will also
teach geometry. Brad Baugher, Tye
Steinbach and Charyl Cathey will
cover Joan Schaller’s 7th grade
science classes during her
September maternity leave. Judy
Lynch will teach the new MS
Japanese language classes. Karen
Sedar, who earned her M.A. in
Mathematics Education from
Columbia University, will teach two
7th grade transition math classes.

Two Upper School (US) teachers
have elected to take sabbaticals in
the coming year. French teacher
Pam Vohnson, recipient of a
National Endowment for the
Humanities (NEH) grant, will spend
the coming year researching two
counterrevolutionary movements
that took place outside of Paris
during the French Revolution.
Replacing her while she completes
her research will be Moneeka
Settles who returns as a dorm par­
ent and coach. Moneeka will teach
French and Humanities. Science
teacher Bill Lamb is taking a two
year sabbatical to work with
Apprenticeships in Science and
Engineering (ASE) at the Oregon
Graduate Institute. Rosa Hemphill,
who will stand in for Bill, graduated
Summa Cum Laude from Incarnate
Word College in San Antonio, TX
with a B.A. in Chemistry. She went
on to earn her M.S. in biochemistry
from Michigan State and has
worked as a chemistry instructor
and research assistant at the col­
lege and high school level. A new
addition to the dorm family is

Edward Liu, who received his B.A.
in history from Yale University.
Edward has spent the last two
summers as a teacher and admin­
istrator of the Summerbridge/
Newbridge Program in San
Francisco and will assume respon­
sibility as co-director of the new
OES/Catlin Gabel Summerbridge
program. Richard Sherwood, who
graduated Magna Cum Laude from
Pacific University with a double
major in Modern Languages spe­
cializing in Japanese and
International Studies with an
emphasis on Asia, will teach US
Japanese and Asian History.
Richard will work with MS
Japanese teacher Judy Lynch to
develop a coordinated MS/US
Japanese program. He and his
family are living on the OES cam­
pus, and he will also be coaching
the girls basketball team.

OES also welcomes a number of
new faces to staff positions. Bob
Chumbook, Assistant Headmaster
for Development, arrived on cam­
pus to head the Development,
Admissions and Public Relations
offices on July 1. New to the
Admissions Office are Lisa Wood,
Assistant to the Headmaster for
Special Projects, and Laura
Wilson, Admissions Secretary. Lisa
will also be living on the OES cam­
pus this year. Finally, Steve Brown
returns to the Maintenance
Department.

ANNUAL REPORT OF GIVING

. verily I say unto you,
if you had faith as a grain
of mustard seed you shall
say unto that mountain
move hence to yonder
place and it shall remove;
and nothing shall be
impossible unto you.”
Matthew 17, verse 20 . ..

OREGON EPISCOPAL SCHOOL

�HEADMASTER’S
Dear Friends,
I am proud to share with you this
Mustard Seed, our annual report of
giving to Oregon Episcopal School.
These lists of voluntary support rec­
ognize many of the hundreds of par­
ents, grandparents, trustees, faculty
and staff, alumni, corporations and
foundations, and other friends of the
School who have given hundreds of
thousands of charitable dollars to the
School and countless thousands of
hours of voluntary support. Such is
the critical difference between medi­
ocrity and excellence. This report is a
testimonial to our excellence.
As I present this to you, I salute our
tireless, thoughtful and dedicated
volunteers. We are indebted to
Annual Fund leaders and donors, to
scores of people who made “Sequins
and Sweats” a resounding success, to
Development Committee members
who gave time and funds to help our
efforts across the board.

I pay tribute to those who served as
room parents, to leaders of wreath
sales, Halloween parties, ice cream
socials, to donors of computers, to
Country Fair entrepreneurs, and to
those who gave time and funds to
help renovate SPARC into the pre­
mier athletic facility in the region.
I tip our collective hat to Parent
Association leaders, parent education
planners, Common Link organizers,

REPORT

alumni board members and trustees
who all gave the School so much
time, love and expertise throughout
the year. And of course I applaud all
those whose efforts this past year
have defied categorizing, or who, in
my own fallibility, I have neglected
to thank personally or publicly. We
cannot do what we do, without you,
and we are deeply, and indeed per­
manently, grateful.

I honor our wonderful faculty and
staff who give their professional lives
to our children. I honor our children,
whose spirit, humor, independence,
warmth and pursuit of the best echo
both their parents and our faculty.
They are the warp and woof of this
educational community.

What has all this support done? It has
put more books in our libraries, more
computer technology in our class­
rooms, and provided more equip­
ment for our athletic programs. It has
provided over $75,000 in funds, both
present and permanent, for profes­
sional growth and development
activities for our faculty. It has sup­
ported families in need with financial
aid. It has maintained our Middle
School annual trips. It has augment­
ed our endowments. And it has pro­
vided our Upper School students
with scores of internship possibilities
during the year. And more. And
more.
It makes the critical difference.

THE MUSTARD SEED

2

Why? Come visit any day during the
school year and get to know our stu­
dents, the young people who make
us what we are. My crowning salute,
then, in this year’s Mustard Seed is to
the girls and boys of OES. You are
our hopes and our future. Your spirit
and love, infectious good cheer and
incredible inquisitiveness validate all
we do. It is in your growth that this
wonderful volunteer support makes
the critical difference. This Mustard
Seed, then, is truly a testimonial of
love for the students of OES.

I send you my warmest personal
greetings.
Sincerely,

Peter W. Stevens

�REPORT FROM THE PRESIDENT O F THE BOARD
Dear Friends:
Borrowing a phrase from the Sinatra bal­
lad, “it was a very good year...”
It was a year marked by record enroll­
ment, a continued strengthening of the
School’s financial base and the develop­
ment of new and innovative educational
programs, not the least of which is the
continued emphasis on experiental edu­
cation.

We can look back on the past year with a
strong sense of accomplishment. There
were many successes, several of which
are worth highlighting:
We took a major step toward energizing
our long-range planning efforts. Our
School community, in a collaborative
effort that involved faculty, trustees, par­
ents, alumni and students, developed a
comprehensive blueprint for implement­
ing rhe OES Strategic Plan. It is an ambi­
tious and exciting program that will take
our School to a new level of excellence.

One of our major goals during this past
year was to begin to build a more formal­
ized development program. We have
been successful in this effort due to the
leadership and direction provided by
Tony Adams as development chair, the
untiring dedication of Tom Oxholm who
revitalized our giving programs and the
creative fervor, wisdom and experience
of Fred Clark.
It is important to note that over the past
two years, charitable contributions to
OES have totaled almost $2 million.
These generous donations have allowed
us to (1) improve our physical facilities,
(2) establish a special fund dedicated to
the professional development of our fac­
ulty, (3) expand scholarship programs for
our students and (4) strengthen our over­
all endowment program.

I would also like to acknowledge the
extraordinary efforts of the volunteers

(parents, alumni, special friends) who
have contributed so much to OES. During
the past year we again witnessed our
“Volunteers in Action.” Under the leader­
ship of Syd Waskey and Aurelia Hunt, we
enjoyed a very successful auction that
raised over $75,000 to support faculty
professional development. More impor­
tantly, we had the opportunity for a
shared community experience that reaf­
firmed the sense of family that exists
within OES. We also will have new com­
puters in the Lower School due to the
dedicated efforts of a group of enthusias­
tic volunteers led by Susan Robinson.

During the summer of 1993, OES, in a
“joint-venture" effort with our friends at
Catlin Gabel, will begin a special educa­
tion program for disadvantaged youth
called Summerbridge. We have started
planning for this program, which is based
upon a national program which has
enjoyed considerable success in recent
years. It reflects our commitment to
diversity and our recognition of the need
to be more involved with the broader
Portland community.
We now begin a new year with a sense of
optimism, confidence and momentum
borne of a success that is due, in large
measure, to the leadership of Peter
Stevens and the dedication and commit­
ment of faculty and staff who have done
so much for our children.

In closing, let me express my thanks and
appreciation for all the time, effort, wis­
dom and guidance provided by my fel­
low trustees^.---------

Rodney Society

T7 ach year, Oregon Episcopal
XL School families are asked to
support the School in a variety
of ways, the Annual Fund being
the most common.
Seeking a broad base of sup­
port from all members of the
OES Community—parents,
alumni, past parents, grandpar­
ents and friends—the Annual
Fund is the sum of all unrestrict­
ed gifts to the School. These
gifts make many exciting things
happen for our students. In addi­
tion, they help us to keep
tuition at a reasonable and
affordable level.
Next year we look forward to
improving the way we structure
the Annual Fund. Parents, for
example, will participate and be
recognized by grade level, and
we will communicate with alum­
ni through a revised class agent
system. These changes, which
will be reflected in next year’s
Annual Report, will give donors a
greater sense of participation.
During the 1991-92 school
year, over 900 generous donors
gave to the Annual Fund. Their
collective efforts helped us sur­
pass the quarter million mark for
the second consecutive year—
$258,196. We would like to take
this opportunity to thank and
acknowledge their stewardship
of Oregon Episcopal School.

Q haring in the vision of Mary
O Burton Rodney, the following
donors expressed their confi­
dence in OES through impres­
sive generosity. More than half
the total Annual Fund results
from gifts of Rodney Society
members. We are very grateful
for their dedicated support.
▲ Former Board President Leigh Stephenson received the Cecil
Drinkward Trustee Service Award for his exemplary years as an OES
Trustee. Board President Sean Gilronan congratulates the award’s
second recipient at the Board's June Meeting.

Bell Tower
&gt;nr&lt; hanks to the generosity of
JL Cecil and Sally Drinkward,
OES dedicated a new bell tower
last November. As the newest
landmark on campus, the mag­
nificent structure houses the St.
Helens Hall bell which, cast in
1870, was given to founder
Bishop Benjamin Wistar Morris
as a gift from his former parish
in Philadelphia. Brought around
Cape Hom, the bell has hung in
every location of the School
since 1871.
Built by the class of 1976, the
previous wooden bell tower had
to be replaced for safety rea­
sons. The Drinkward’s gift,
along with an anonymous dona­
tion, also provided improve­
ments for the bell tower circle.
The large rock in the circle is
a memorial to Blair Rosenlund
*75, and bears the plaque from
the previous bell tower.

�VOLUNTEERS
A mong the donations to OES
Meach year are, literally, tens

of thousands ot “volunteer hours'*
from a myriad of people. This may
seem like an exaggeration, but
when you consider all the events
that take place, things quickly
come into perspective. The Lower
School Halloween Party, Middle
School Wreath Sale, Lower
School Fashion Show, Upper
School Ski Swap, blood drives,
picnics, Junior Great Books,
Grandparents/Special Friends
Day, Country Fair, Annual Fund
phonathons, uniform and sweat
shirt sales, parent education,
chaperons, Trustees, teacher
appreciation, room parents, grade
representatives, Book Fairs,
Lower School Computers, OES/21
Committees, graduation parties,
etc.—the list is endless!
Volunteering is truly the essence
of OES—giving time and re­
sources so that our children can
get the best education possible.
We would like to personally
thank and acknowledge everyone
who gives of themselves to make
OES the warm and special place it
is. People give in so many ways
that some may appear to go unno­
ticed. Rest assured, we may not
know of everyone that volunteers,
but we certainly see the tremen­
dous and wonderful results of
their efforts.
The following lists include
those who volunteered or donated
to Country Fair or the Sequins and
Sweats Auction, our two biggest
events, and those who assisted
with our development efforts.
Extra care has been taken to
ensure the integrity of these lists. If
we missed you, please accept our
heartfelt apologies—your efforts
are always greatly appreciated.

AUCTION ‘92:
Sequins &amp; Sweats
T) eople turned out in droves
± to support the 1992 Spring
Revels Auction: Sequins &amp;
Sweats. Raising over S75.OOO
net to support professional
growth and development activi­
ties for the OES faculty and staff.
Sequins &amp; Sweats was a huge
success.
As planned, the money was
split, with one-half of the net
proceeds augmenting our oper­
ating budgets for faculty and
staff growth activities. These
include conferences, course­
work, research and collaborative
curriculum endeavors. The
other half was added to the
School’s Edward E. Ford
Endowment Fund, with its earn­
ings restricted to fund the same
kind of activities.
We are most grateful to the
many people who stepped for­
ward as volunteers, donors and
bidders to support Sequins &amp;
Sweats—your generosity was
most impressive and thoughtful.

�erriors Russian experiences
prompt career plans
J After spending a year
at the Humanitarian
Lyceum in Moscow, senior
Erin Lamb returns to OES prepared
to pursue a career in education.
Though her year in Russia was
highlighted by opportunities to
explore different cultures, learn a
new language and glory at the
beauty of such museums as the
Hermitage in St. Petersburg—"I
could have been an artist if I had
lived there”—it was the opportunity
to observe the Soviet education
system first hand that most signifi­
cantly influenced Erin’s plans for
the future.
“Russian kids were amazed that
we only attended school Monday
through Friday,” said Erin, who, like
her Russian contemporaries, was
expected to attend class from 9:00
am to 2:30 pm Monday through
Saturday, and after class, students
and teachers gather in "circles" for
discussion. These sessions, which
can last until 7:00 or 8:00 pm, pro­
vide ample opportunity for the type
of in-depth discussion many
American teachers wish they had
time for. With the considerable
demands placed on a faculty
member’s time, which often
includes dinner in the low cost
school cafeteria, many Russian
teachers spend more time with
their students than they do with
their families. “Teachers are really
involved in the lives of the kids.
They ask about the family and real­
ly know what’s going on in the stu­
dent’s lives," Erin observed.
Lyceums are the Russian equiv­
alent of our independent schools.
Though fees for attending these
schools are nominal, the intense
application process involving oral
testing and written essays single
out the serious students. Like
OESians, Erin’s friends in Moscow
attended Lyceums because they
want to learn. “If you don’t want to
learn, you go to a state school."
Teachers at the Lyceum, like
their students, are serious about
education. "Teachers come to the
Lyceum to teach the way they
want instead of the way the state
system dictates." They are attract-

ed to the independent schools
because of the higher level of stu­
dent commitment and the freedom
to use innovative teaching meth­
ods—much like their counterparts
here at OES.
With Russian host parents
Zhenia Abelyuk and Ilya Leenson,
both teachers, Erin was immersed
in education both at school and
home. This gave her a unique
opportunity to speak frankly about
the issues affecting educators in
Russia. Russian teachers are part
of the intelligentsia class—made
up of people who have chosen to
pursue higher education.
Unfortunately, the recent economic
upheaval following the break-up of
the former Soviet Union has had
painful economic consequences
for this group. "The pay for
teachers is pathetic. The
government is going
back to the basics, and
J
the general view seems
f
to be, 'We need to pay
J
miners and farmers
I
more.’ It’s general knowl- 1

age citizen never thinks to ask for
anything. They just assume they’ll
be told, ‘No,’ so they don’t even
ask.” This willingness to follow the
dictates of the system, coupled
with the fact that the average citi­
zen trusts the politicians, was diffi­
cult for Erin, who together with her
family, has been actively involved
in civic affairs.
“It’s also a very chauvinistic
society with definite perceptions of
women's work and men’s work.
There’s no Freddy’s in Russia, so
these women have to carry their
shopping bags from store to store.
They go to one store to buy milk,
and the next to buy bread, and so
on. These bags become very
heavy, yet there is this perception
that women are helpless and can’t
do any heavy lifting. I asked
this one guy if he let his
. mother carry heavy shopping bags, and his face
flushed bright red. The
mother is expected to
111 do all the chores—
c"® clean the house,

edge that the intelligentsia
are not a priority.” To put
this in perspective, consider
that a teacher in Moscow
earns roughly 1,000 rubles ($10.00
American) per month, while a
street vendor can make 1,000
rubles a day. "By Russian stan­
dards, you are doing well if you
can buy an apple a day and honey
occasionally.”
Though most teachers remain
committed to their vocation
despite the low pay, Erin believes
escalating inflation and severe
food shortages may force these
individuals to make difficult deci­
sions in the coming year. "People
had stores of food this year, but
next year will be really bad. Every­
body is hurting. For now, my
[Russian] parents plan to continue
teaching, but they have two chil­
dren to consider. If they begin to
starve, they’ll have to change."
And change is inevitable.
Despite recent upheavals in the
political system, habits formed
under the communist government
are hard to break. “The entire sys­
tem is so bureaucratic. The aver­

cook the meals, take
care of the kids."
Fathers, too, have a
distinct role in the Russian
culture. “Dad repairs things. He
repairs the walls, fixes appliances,
chases mice and rats—we were
lucky; we didn’t have any rats—
and he kills the cockroaches,
which you can’t get rid of anyway.”
After an eye-opening year of
political and cultural revolution,
Erin has returned to the United
States with plans for the future.
“I’d like to start a school in an
underprivileged area—an intense
school for learning where I will
teach language and math at earlier
ages and promote new ideas. With
a solid background at an earlier
age, students will be able to do so
much more with their lives."
By combining the best elements
of what she has learned at OES
with her Russian experiences, Erin
hopes her ideas will provide in­
creased opportunities for students
and teachers to exchange ideas.

E.E. FORD FOUNDATION
FUNDS OES
ENDOWMENT

A generous grant of
/W $50,000 from the
A. A. Edward E. Ford
Foundation earlier this year
established an endowment
fund for faculty and staff
professional growth and
development. Named by
OES in honor of the
Foundation, the Fund has
grown to over $118,000
thanks to several generous
donors and all those who
supported the Sequins &amp;
Sweats Auction, w hich con­
tributed half its proceeds.
Income from the Endow­
ment will be used to help
faculty and staff fund class­
es, seminars and other edu­
cational opportunities. This
summer over 75 individuals
are involved in professional
growth and development
activities.

LS Head says good-bye
When it came rr
KLiM
time for OES
to say farewell
to Maxine
Carlstedt, who
has been
□Bfl
Lower School
since 1987,
perhaps the children said it best.
Clustered around her special chair,
in an unplanned but perfect touch,
they shared the oohs and ahs, the
giggles and sighs as LS families,
faculty and staff presented Max with
a memory book along with a collec­
tion of hats—nurse hat, traffic offi­
cer (cone) hat, sticker box hat. The
highlight of the May 27 evening was
Hal Phillips’ slide show, A Salute to
Maxine.

Student OMSI exhibit on salmon held
over by popular demand

Working together, OES biology and art students created and
produced a special exhibit for the Oregon Museum of Science
and Industry (OMSI)—What is it like to be a wild salmon in the
Columbia River Basin?—that was originally scheduled to run
from May 29 to June 15. But according to OMSI, the exhibit
received so many positive comments that OMSI decided to hold
it over into July.
Under the direction of OES art teacher Sue Jensen and biolo­
gy teacher John LeCavalier, along with OMSI staff designers,
students created a salmons’ eye view of drift nets, hydro-elec­
tric dams and gravel-bottomed spawning grounds—an opportu­
nity to experience the life-cycle of the anadromous wild salmon.
The Biology students who acted as the writing and research
team developed the supporting text. “The group editing
required to distill one page of text into one paragraph of careful,
age-appropriate language is a challenge not often encountered
at such an early age,’’ said John. “And the small group process
inherent in the project gave them a unique opportunity for col­
laborative decision-making.”
Art Trek students made three-dimensional paper mache mod­
els of salmon at various stages of growth. They also designed,
painted and dyed fabric backdrops that represent the life cycle
of the salmon.
The exhibit opened with a special reception on Friday, May
29, which featured specially designed fish cookies procured by
OES Food Service Manager Jeff Marsh.

OES installs new phone system
Having outgrown its previous system, OES installed a new
AT&amp;T phone system that will meet the School’s expanding
needs. While retaining a receptionist for incoming calls, the
new system offers several options for improved accessibili­
ty, including user friendly voice mail and some direct dial
numbers. OES hopes to complete training (and break-in)
for all employees by the end of September.

Kenyan School Head
visits OES

Judith Njue, Founder and
Director of Sawa Sawa
Academy in Meru, Kenya,
visited Oregon Episcopal
School on June 1 to investi­
gate curriculum develop­
ment, long range planning,
marketing and fundraising.
Attending a management
training seminar at Oregon
State University on a schol­
arship that she received as
recognition from the World
Bank, Judith Njue talked
with OES administrative
staff and teachers, looking
for ideas to use in Kenya.
Sawa Sawa Academy, which
began 10 years ago in one
small wooden structure
with eight students and one
trained teacher, now boasts
20 acres, 460 students and
22 teachers.
Former Trustee
continues volunteering
Former OES Trustee Carole Thomas
was recently elected chairwoman of
the Marquam Hill Steering
Committee. The Committee’s pri­
mary role is to provide statewide
support—friends and finances—
for Oregon Health Sciences
University. As an OES Trustee,
Carole chaired the Development
and Safety Committees. Her son
John ‘89, was recently elected
President of the Academic Senate at
the University of Oregon, and her
daughter Jennifer will be a junior at
OES this fall.

�What’s it like
to be a
pioneer?

▲ On Monday, June 1. OES
third graders spent a day at the
pioneer schoolhouse in
Champoeg Park learning first
hand what it was like to be pio­
neer schoolchildren.

A During the yearlong pioneer unit third graders not only learn
the historicalfacts but also read from actual pioneerjournals,
makefamily trees, examine beaver habitats, make candles and
paper quilts, learn pioneer games and songs and write diaries of
themselves as pioneer children on the Oregon Trail. Here Kelly
Kitchel and Rachel Knox play jacks with friends.

▼ For Adam Hewitt, the
experience was particularly
memorable. Adam is the
great great great grandnephew
of the Adam Hewitt who met
with fellow pioneers at
Champoeg Park and voted
to organize a provisional gov­
ernment under the United
States in 1841. In fact, the
original Adam Hewitt's name
is listed with hisfellows on the
monument that commemorates
the event in the park. (He’s
pointing to the name.) Adam,
who is the son of Henry and
Sharon Hewitt, shared stories
from the Hewitt family
diaries from the 1843 Oregon
Trail in class.

Alumni Profile

Bobby Lee ’88
“One person can make a differ­
ence,” says Bobby Lee. “That’s
one of the reasons I chose to run
for student body president at the
University of Oregon.” He ran on a
platform with strong equal oppor­
tunity and affirmative action planks
and won. Today he heads the
Associated Students of the
University of Oregon, which con­
trols a $4.7 million budget to pro­
vide student services.

▲ Bobby Lee ’88
elected U of O
student body
president for 92- '93

A Korean-American, Bobby came
to OES speaking English as a sec­
ond language and spent two years
at OES studying hard and playing
drums, soccer and basketball. “My
confidence wasn’t very high at first;
it takes guts for an international
student to speak up and partici­
pate. But OES builds confidence
and encourages participation.”

Bobby describes the U of O as a
“community of associations—
dormies, international students,
Greeks, etc." that embodies more
than 17,000 students. “It’s very,
very big. You are your Social
Security number, rather than a
name." Coming from OES, which
he describes as “a community of
individuals”, his response to the
long lines and large classes was to
get actively involved.

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

He became dorm president his
freshman year and began as an
intern in student government (the
Associated Students of the
University of Oregon or ASUO). In
1990 he became a peer counselor,
and then took an ASUO executive
position as affirmative action coor­
dinator during his sophomore and

junior years. As a sophomore he
also worked with fellow alum John
Thomas *89 to found a campus
radio station, which they hope will
begin broadcasting in August
1992. Bobby remained interested
in minority affairs, affirmative
action and equal opportunity — he
helped get the funding for the
University’s first Asian American
Studies class institutionalized, and
both Bobby and John completed a
major research project comparing
the number of minority and white
athletes who graduate. Meanwhile,
Bobby continued to work his way
up through student government,
serving a term as president of the
ASUO organization that oversees
student health insurance.
“The U of O is only one of three uni­
versities in the nation where student
government controls incidental
fees. This gives the ASUO $4.7 mil­
lion to use in providing services that
include hate crime prevention pro­
grams, access for the handicapped,
safety, transportation, childcare,
athletic tickets, counseling and
family housing.” Bobby explained
that “the five branches of student
government in the ASUO mirror the
real world. We deal with business
issues, equal opportunity, equitable
allocation, social needs, and issues
resulting from the OCA [Oregon
Citizen’s Alliance] petition to
Measure 5.” The ASUO also lobbies
on the University, State and Federal
levels.

“After being in student government
so long, I began to understand that
ASUO decisions affect people’s
lives. There were a lot of people
who believed that I knew the issues
and had the passion to make the
right choices,” said Bobby, describ­
ing his decision to run for ASUO
president. Bobby’s platform gave U
of O students his plans for allocat­
ing the ASUO budget, including
provisions for safety, students with
disabilities, violence prevention
and, in response to Measure 5,
“quality education at a minimum
cost”. Bobby says, “If we have to
counteract the inequity [that exists
in today’s society], let’s fund it.”

Bobby ran against three other can­
didates and clinched the position
in the primary, with support from a
several different groups—Greeks,

16

family housing, dorms, internation­
al students, ethnic minorities and
women. On May 25 he began his
12-month term of office as ASUO
president. “I am now in a position
to make decisions that affect many
people. That means I am constant­
ly held accountable. My job is to
articulate the vision.”
The new ASUO president is not the
only visible OES alumni at U of O.
“There is a standing joke,” says
Bobby, “that these OESians from a
little private school in Portland are
taking over student government at
U of O.” Although he laughs, Bobby
admits that OES alumni are very
involved. John Thomas was just
elected president of the Student
Senate, the academic arm of
ASUO. Dylan Coulter ‘89 served as
one of Bobby's campaign man­
agers, after running a successful
campaign for longer library hours
this past year. Jason Sprague ‘89 is
a member of the Student Senate.

OESians at U of O also stay in
touch with each other through
what Bobby calls “our OES alum
network”. They meet about once a
month, sometimes playing softball
or basketball or taking a trip to the
beach. Last year they had
Thanksgiving dinner together. “I
have even become friends with
OESians that I didn’t know well at
OES. It’s not over just because
we’ve graduated.” Bobby would
like to start an annual summer
gathering for young alums to help
young alumni keep their ties
together.
Bobby described OES as a safe
place to ask difficult questions.
“Teachers at OES see students as
individuals. But, more than anything
else,” he said, “there is an OESian
spirit. OESians are more real. They
make a sincere effort; they’re curi­
ous. I may not have recognized it
then, but in looking back, I see it as
something terribly important.

Bobby, who plans to pursue law
school after his year as ASUO
president, says, “OES helped me
strengthen basic human skills
such as interpersonal communica­
tion, respect and listening. I feel
very fortunate to have had an OES
education.”

�Alumni Association
President’s Corner
This issue begins the second
year of the President’s Corner.
Over the past year, I have enjoyed
writing about all the wonderful
things happening at OES and with
you, our alumni.
During Reunion Weekend in
June, a record number of alumni
visited the OES campus. The Great
Hall and Dining Room were abuzz
with voices and laughter as old
days were remembered and new
friends made. An excellent lunch
was enjoyed by all, followed by an
informative State of the School
speech, given by Headmaster
Peter Stevens. Our featured

speaker, John LeCavalier, Upper
School science teacher and envi­
ronmentalist, educated us on how
important the preservation of our
wetlands and wildlife is. I enjoyed
meeting many of you that day!
I am pleased to report that plans
for Founders’ Day 1992 are in
motion! The annual luncheon will
be held Wednesday, November 18
at the Multnomah Athletic Club.
Our featured speaker is the newly
appointed Superintendent of
Portland Public Schools, Dr. John
Bierworth. Dr. Bierworth will speak
on the role of the Public Schools
and the Private Schools working
together in our community. I hope
you will join us for what looks to be
a great 123rd Founders’ Day! For
the second year, we will again
honor an outstanding alumna/us
with the Bishop Benjamin Wistar
Morris Distinguished Alumni
Award.
One of our new programs that I
am particularly excited about is the
Class Agent program. Our goal is
to have a class agent for each
class. This individual will serve as a
liaison between classmates and
the school. Some of the duties

include organizing class notes for
the Belltower, working as class
leader for the Annual Fund and
encouraging classmates to attend
alumni events and reunions. This is
a wonderful opportunity for you to
rekindle old friendships and
become involved with OES.
Our 125th Birthday is only two
short years away. Plans for a cele­
bration of this size takes time and
commitment by everyone in the
OES community. The steering
committee has formed and already
has begun to organize this once in
a lifetime celebration. Sean Kuni
‘81 has accepted the role as the
alumni chairperson for this event.
Again, I hope to see many of you
involved in this project, and if you
are called to volunteer, I hope you
will give of your time!
Please take a moment to look at
the Alumni Association Calendar
for 1992-93. I encourage you to
attend one of our Board meet­
ings—we always welcome new
faces and ideas! As always, if you
have any ideas or suggestions on
how we can serve the alumni com­
munity better, please contact me.
You are important to us.

The Senior Service and Reception
on Tuesday, June 9th, kicked off the
activities for Reunion Week 1992.
Headmaster Peter Stevens and Alumni
Board President Meridel Prideaux
welcomed the 59 seniors into the OES
Alumni Association with the gift of an
OES alumni laundry bag and warm
wishes from alumni, parents and friends.
On the following evening, Trinity
Episcopal Church was the site of the
122nd graduation ceremonies. Process­
ing with the class of 1992 were members
of the 50 year reunion class of 1942—
Lillian Johnson Wonders, who travelled
from Victoria B.C., Charmian Kolar
Hilleary, Anne Walker Davis and Joyce
Wollum Stent.
With hardly enough time to take a
breath, the annual Alumni Luncheon fol­
lowed on Friday, June 12. Over 80 alumni
from the classes of 1927-1985, together
with friends and family members, visited
the OES campus. The day began with
the Alumni Memorial Service at the
Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, which
gives friends and family an opportunity to
remember fellow alumni who died in the
past year. Muriel Gabriel Heltzel ‘30 and
Peter Stevens read the lessons. The
Dean of the Cathedral, the Very Rev. Roy
Coulter, was the celebrant, and James
Isaak ‘85 was the organist. After the ser­
vice, alumni gathered in the Great Hall for
a social featuring a special memorabilia
exhibit highlighting the Junior College,
and reunion classes enjoyed Memory
Books, annuals and memorabilia span­
ning the past 70 years.
After welcoming the group at the lun­
cheon, Alumni President Meridel
Prideaux gave a brief report on the
Alumni Association’s activities over the
past year and recognized outgoing
Alumni Board members Nancy Stolte
Rosenfeld, Diana Beebe Buchanan and
Geri Hanny Sargent for their three years
of hard work and dedication to the
Board. Headmaster Peter Stevens’ State
of the School address followed.
An enlightening speech on the impor­
tance of preserving our educational wet­
lands by keynote speaker, John
LeCavalier, who is an Upper School sci­
ence teacher and environmentalist, high­
lighted the luncheon. John used maps
and graphs as visual aids to discuss the
OES Wetlands.
Maryanna Eckman Hatch '42 JC from
Durham, New Hampshire and Arlene
Wollin Margulies ‘42 from Springfield,
New Jersey were the two alums who had
travelled the farthest to attend the re­
union. Members of the classes of 1942
SHH and 1942 JC, both celebrating their
50-year reunion, received an OES paper­
weight from the Alumni Association.

Saturday dawned bright for the casual
Alumni BBQ. Two exhibits, “OES Today”
and memorabilia, captured attention, as
did conversation and company. Current
faculty members Cynthia Doran (College
Counseling), Bill Lamb (Science) and
David Streight (Counseling) visited with
former students from the classes of 1981
and 1987. Much-needed rain did not
dampen the spirits of those who climbed
aboard the OES van for a tour of the new
Sports and Recreation Center (SPARC).
Kevin Cavanagh *82 received an OES
mug for travelling from Hilton Head,
South Carolina for his 10 year reunion.
Many classes also gathered through­
out the week for individual events. The
class of 1932 met Thursday, June 11th
for a leisurely (3 hour!) lunch at the
Multnomah Athletic Club, and casual
Friday evening gatherings brought class­
mates from 1982 and 1987 together. On
Saturday, June 13, members of the
classes of 1972 SHH and BDH enjoyed a
picnic at the Lake Oswego home of
Warren and Bernice Bean, while 11
members from the class of 1947 JC
gathered at the home of Sue Scouten
Hammann for lunch and conversation.
On June 26 and 27,12 members of
the class of 1947 and their spouses met
at Black Butte Ranch for a weekend
reunion. Members of this class unite
every 5 years at a different location. In
August, graduates from the BDH and

Meet new Alumni Board
This year, the Alumni Board wel­
comes four new members. The
Board strives to represent all of our
constituents from St. Helens Hall,
Junior College, Bishop Dagwell
Hall and Oregon Episcopal School.
Members range in class years from
1928-1983. Meet new members:
Kelly Dwyer ‘83, Melvin “Mel”
Murphy *82, Alexandra "Allie”
Zimmer *76 and Marilyn De Vault
‘67. This group brings enthusiasm
and bright ideas to the Board.

ALLIE ZIMMER attended OES for
14 years and later graduated from
the University of Oregon with a BA
in Interior Architecture. Allie return­
ed to Portland last year, after living
and working in San Francisco for
several years. Currently, she
designs with Pacific Studios, her
own firm. Allie was instrumental in
planning her 15-year class reunion
last year and looks forward to
becoming involved with more
alumni events.

KELLY DWYER spent a total of
ten years as a student at OES. She
holds a BA in government from
Smith College and an MBA in
Finance from Notre Dame. In addi­
tion to working with the Board as
they continue to build a strong,
active and concerned Alumni
Association, Kelly hopes to assist
current OES students with career
and education options. She enjoys
volunteer work with the Junior
League of Portland, golf and
antiques.

Returning to the Board in 92-93 is
MARILYN DE VAULT. She owns
Piece of Cake, a Lake Oswego
based bakery/catering service that
specializes in food design. Marilyn
is looking forward to having a posi­
tive and active term. When asked
her interests, she replied “art, art &amp;
more art!” She and her two daugh­
ters, Randi 20, and Tracy 13, enjoy
the beach, travelling and sports.

MELVIN “MEL” MURPHY attribut­
es his decision to become involved
in alumni activities to his great
educational experience at OES and
his good friend and fellow alumni
board member, Sean Kuni ‘81. He

would like to see more young
alums become involved in activi­
ties. Since graduating from Linfield
College, Mel has been working at
Nike in advertising. Mel likes run­
ning, outdoor activities and spend­
ing time at home in Beaverton with
his wife Ann and their dog.

The Alumni Board is always look­
ing for committed alumni to volun­
teer and become involved. Board
members say it is a rewarding and
gratifying experience to represent
your class and school. Please con­
tact Alumni Board President
Meridel Prideaux or the Alumni
Office if you would like to be a part
of this special group.

SUPERINTENDENT
OF PPS TO SPEAK AT
FOUNDERS’ DAY
Alumni, trustees, faculty, staff, par­
ents and members of the OES
community are invited to celebrate
the founding of St. Helens Hall,
Bishop Dagwell Hall and Oregon
Episcopal School on Wednesday,
November 18, at the School’s
annual Founders’ Day Luncheon
which will be held at the
Multnomah Athletic Club.

John E. Bierwirth, Portland Public
School District’s new superinten­
dent, has graciously accepted the
Alumni Association’s invitation to
speak on "how independent and
public schools work together for
the good of education”.
Bierwirth officially took charge of
the 56,000-student district—the
largest in the Pacific Northwest—
on July 1. Though quick to
acknowledge the challenges he
faces under the property tax limits
of Measure 5, Bierwirth says, "I
won’t hold kids hostage for more
money.” He is committed to push­
ing for higher student achieve­
ment.

The Founders’ Day Luncheon also
provides an opportunity to intro­
duce the recipient of the Benjamin
Wistar Morris Distinguished
Service Award. This award, estab­
lished last year, recognizes a St.
Helens Hall, Bishop Dagwell Hall
and Oregon Episcopal School
alumnus who, through their com­
mitment and service, has achieved
significant successes in her/his
professional careers and/or has
made outstanding contributions in
community involvement, thereby
bringing honor to themselves and
to OES.

�BDH alumni joins campaign trail
"Norm Frink (BDH ‘71) and I
worked a lot in student politics. I
still carry a lot of that with me,”
said Ted Thomas BDH ‘71. Ted,
who chaired the Oregon Ross
Perot Petition Campaign, remem­
bers a school designed in the pat­
tern of a New England boys prep
school. "The attempt was made by
the headmaster and the board to
impose heavy discipline—very
authoritarian. It was a really inter­
esting time—very controversial.
But when you attempt to impose
authoritarian rules, people will find
a way to circumnavigate. I sup­
pose it was a natural, intuitive
response, consistent with what
was going on in the 60s. I really
enjoyed OES. It was a very good
education. And the rules didn’t hurt
at all."
When Ted left OES, he believed he
had left politics behind him, but
when Ted began to feel as though
though his ideas no longer count­
ed, it was time to re-evaluate. “I
feel like everyone has to get up off
the armchair and get involved in
the political process or the country

is doomed," explained Ted. It is
this belief that each person is
responsible, at some level, that
prompted Ted, who then recruited
his old BDH pal, Norm, to become
involved in the now disbanded
Ross Perot political campaign.
Recently, he had begun to believe
he had no voice where government
was concerned. "Our government
system is based on surrogates—
journalists interpreting our views,
determining who is or is not impor­
tant to listen to and, based on that,
telling the people in Washington,
D.C. what we think. This makes it
easy to get out of the loop of those
being heard."
As the owner of Grand Max
Software, a PC custom business
software firm, Ted sought a candi­
date who met his criteria for
President. "Government is like one
very large business. You’ve got to
set your priorities. Can the candi­
date run an organization? Does he
have the organizational manage­
ment skills? Does he have his pri­
orities in order?"

AUTUMN

Ted also believes people have
started voting for issues rather
than candidates. "People need
to concentrate on the person
rather than the issues. The
President really doesn’t have any
control over the issues, so aligning
to the issues is pointless. The
President should be willing to
look to the electorate for their feel­
ings on issues and should follow
the dictates of the electorate.”

Though Perot’s supporters were
disappointed in their candidate’s
decision to withdraw from the
presidential race, this group
remains committed to many of the
principles on which his campaign
was based—sound fiscal manage­
ment of government and a com­
mitment to listen to the electorate.
This extremely organized group
has refused to disband and
appears determined to have their
views addressed, with or without a
candidate.

YESTERDAY AND TODAY
Peter Stevens meets Bishop Morris’ granddaughter
In February, OES Headmaster
Peter Stevens stopped to visit with
Mrs. Robert (Mary Wistar)
O’Connor, daughter of Benjamin
Wistar Morris, who was born at St.
Helens Hall in 1870, the son of
Benjamin Wistar Morris, Bishop of
Oregon and founder of the School.
Her great aunt Mary Rodney was
the School's first headmistress,
assisted by her sisters Lydia and
Clementine and Rachel Morris.
Although Mary Wistar has only
been to Oregon once since a visit
at the age of five, she remains
interested in her "grandfather’s and
Aunt Mary’s dream".

Mary Wistar remembers stories of
her grandparents meeting, and of
her father’s birth, as well as tales of
the challenge of founding a school
just 25 years after the Oregon Trail
opened. She has particularly vivid
memories of her personal experi­
ences of a train trip to Portland
when she was five—she remem­
bers crying at the plight of some
poor Native Americans. Things
had changed from her grandfa­
ther’s accounts of Native American
friends—friends who had once
returned his sons who had become
lost while camping. Mary Wistar
mentioned that she has many,
many letters and papers from an
interesting and widely connected
family.

Mary Wistar’s father was the last
child of Hannah Rodney and the
Bishop, and the only one not born
in the East. At the age of six, he
witnessed the tragic death of his
older brother, Rodney, in a con­
struction accident. After early
schooling in Oregon, he went East
to Columbia College in New York,
but returned to Oregon briefly after
the death of his aunt Mary. Back in
the East he was invited to pursue
his career in art and architecture at
the Beaux Art in Paris, and later
became a widely recognized archi­
tect. Mary Wistar grew up in the
East and married Robert O’Connor,
who was a junior partner in her
father's architectural firm.

A Letter from
the Headmaster
Dear Friends,

A year ago, I shared with you the
School’s long-range plan, OES/21,
or OES for the 21st Century. As we
enter our 124th year, and as we
introduce this issue of The
BeUTower which includes The
Mustard Seed, our Annual Report
for 1992-93, I’d like to comment on
three different aspects of OES/21,
and about progress and promise.

First, enrollment. OES/21 had envi­
sioned that the optimum size for
OES in our current facilities, with
some modest improvements, would
be about 710 students spread over
grades PK through 12. At the time,
we enrolled about 666. We would
remain small and viable division by
division, and class by class.
I am very pleased to report to you
that this September we open our
doors with about 700 students in
attendance. We have been blessed
not only with extraordinary num­
bers of applicants at all levels, but
also with applicants of consistently
the highest quality we have ever
had, at all levels.

Second, faculty and compensation.
At the heart of OES is our faculty.
You have told us that it has always
been thus, at St. Helens Hall, at
Bishop Dagwell Hall, at Oregon
Episcopal School. Recognizing
this, our Board of Trustees has
responded with a ringing endorse­
ment of the faculty by identifying
faculty compensation as one of its
two principal priorities in OES/21.
We can no longer assume that the
difference in teaching climate in
independent schools offers enough
“psychic salary” to replace the up
to 30% differential between teach­
ing here and teaching in an area
public school.

Third is the Board of Trustees’
other priority: buildings and facili­
ties. OES/21 identified four major
areas where the OES of the 21st
Century needs attention: libraries,
science and computer, fine and
performing arts and gymnasium.
As a way of tackling the issues,
the Board requested a look at our
Middle School, challenging us to
provide a superior home for each
division for the next century.
Therefore, the Buildings and
Grounds Committee is hard at
work with an architect to update
the decade-old Master Plan, with
results due at Christmastime.
As The Mustard Seed looks back a
year, OES/21 looks ahead. This will
be another exciting year. Come
visit us, and see first-hand how
vibrant, purposeful and effective
education can be.

Sincerely,

I.
Peter W. Stevens

Cathedral to move
“in name only”
At the end of 1993, the title of
Cathedral will pass from St. John
the Baptist at OES to Trinity Parish
in downtown Portland.

“The change is primarily one of
titles,” explains The Right Rev.
Robert L. Ladehoff, Bishop of
Oregon, in a statement. “When
Trinity becomes the Cathedral, the
present Cathedral will become the
Parish of St. John the Baptist.
[The Very Rev. Roy Coulter] will
become Rector of the parish. The
Chapter will become its Vestry. I
see no significant change in their
responsibilities.”

OREGON EPISCOPAL SCHOOL
At Oregon Episcopal School,
exceptional faculty challenge students
of unusual promise to reach their
highest potential within a tradition
distinguished by love, compassion
and trust. Founded in 1869, Oregon
Episcopal Schhol is a pre-K through 12,
coeducational, independent, college
preparatory school in the Episcopal
tradition. A full boarding program is
offered in grades 9 through 12. Exceptional
teachers engage students in small classes
that stress participation, creativity and a
passion for active learning and living.
Within a traditional framework, dynamic
programs in the fine and performing arts
and athletics encourage student
participation. Located on the Pacific Rim,
the School emphasizes global studies and
an international outlook. Virtually all
graduates attend fine colleges. Responsible
citizenship, ethics and community service
are important at OES — a School where
students are encouraged to reach their
fullest potential in a loving and caring
environment.

“The present Cathedral is one of
the strong and healthy parishes of
this Diocese. It is very important to
me that this change take place in a
way that will not weaken the life
and ministry of this congregation,”
says the Bishop. The Parish of St.
John the Baptist will remain on the
Oregon Episcopal School campus.

The ceremony for the long-planned
transfer, which is intended to
return the Cathedral to the “center”
of life in the Diocese, will take
place at Trinity during the Dio­
cesan Convention on November
19. During the service Dean
Coulter who is currently Dean of
the Cathedral, will be named Dean
of the Diocese, and The Rev. Bud
Thurston will become Dean of
Trinity Cathedral.
The Cathedral of St. John the
Baptist traces its origins to St.
Stephen’s Chapel, a congregation
affiliated with (then) St. Stephen’s
Cathedral in downtown Portland.
The congregation originally met in
the St. Helens Hall School build­
ings, and when construction of
the church was completed in
1967, moved into its current loca­
tion. It was consecrated the
Cathedral of St. John the Baptist
in January 1973.

According to Dean Coulter, “When
St. Helens Hall moved to Raleigh
Hills, Bishop Carmen caught a
vision that the School, the
Cathedral, the offices of the
Bishop and a Diocesan conference
center would come to coexist on
the School campus, and that it
would become the hub of the
Diocese — a center for administra­
tion, education and spiritual life.”
Although the Cathedral moved to
Raleigh Hills as planned, the
offices of the Bishop could not
move due to the terms of a be­
quest, and there was already a
conference center established at
Gerhardt on the Coast. The
Schools were built — St. Helens
Hall and Bishop Dagwell Hall
which merged into Oregon
Episcopal School in 1972 — and
continued to expand. By the time
the issue was re-examined, the
campus was full.
Over the years, the relationship
between the School and the
Cathedral of St. John the Baptist
has grown and prospered. “We
share space and staff,” says Dean
Coulter. Many members of the
Cathedral have children in school
at OES, and many OES families
join the congregation. Teachers,
too. Many OES alumni are active in
the parish. We share trustees and
chapter members.”
“I wished the transfer to take place
while I am still in active ministry
[not after retirement as was origi­
nally suggested], so that I could
pastor the congregation through
the transition," says Dean Coulter.
“I believe God has great things in
store for this parish, and I am
excited about it. And, by the way,
I do not have any plans for
retirement at this time."

When done well, teaching is an art in itself; when the
teacher is an artist, both aspects — teaching and art —
thrive, each enhanced by the other.

OES Students in the Performing and Fine Arts Department

are fortunate to work with artists who have taken their indi­
vidual skills into the classroom environment.
In this issue of The BellTower, we’d like to introduce you to

four of the artist/teachers at OES. We look forward to intro­
ducing the other department members in a future issue.

‘‘It is exciting and rewarding to have
so many members of the Performing
and Fine Arts Department active
professionally. It adds dimension and
perspective,” says Jack who is the
department chair. “Artists who are
teachers interact with the professional
community, relate information first
hand, put their own work before the
public and give students access to
professional contacts.”
Jack, who has been teaching stage­
craft at OES since 1982, recently
earned his MFA in Scenic Design from
the University of Portland.
He originally developed his craft
through reading books and “jumping
in". When he decided to pursue an
advanced degree, he felt theatre
was the perfect avenue, offering
varied opportunities to learn and grow
as a professional.
“One of the goals I set for myself
was to try to break into the profession­
al field. Fortunately, Portland theatre is
small enough that word gets around."
It seems that word travels particularly
fast when a designer has talent — only
two years after entering the Portland
scene, Jack received a “Drammy"
nomination, Portland's equivalent of
the Tony Award, for Best Set Design.
This September, three different
shows with sets designed by Jack will
open in the Portland area, and the divi­
dends of his involvement will continue
to pay off for OES students. “When I
take students to plays, I can introduce
them to the actors, technicians and
directors and let them walk all over the
set...without having to worry that they'll
get yelled at.
“Back in class, we can talk about
what I’m doing, and I can give them a
sense of the teamwork that’s needed.
To be a good actor, you need to
understand the whole process. To be
a good technician, you have to under­
stand the actor's perspective. I can
relate my experiences to our study of
theatre. Art isn’t simply what I do, it's
who lam.”

The creation of beauty is an
inescapable part of Sue Jensen’s life.
In addition to teaching Graphic Arts,
Paper Arts, Photography and Art Trek,
a multi-media art class unique to OES,
Sue is a member of the nationally rec­
ognized Portland Baroque Orchestra
and Director of Music for St. Aidan’s
Episcopal Church in Gresham.
“The Episcopal church has a long
tradition of valuing the arts — music,
architecture, sculpture. They realized
long ago that beauty is an important
part of the soul."
Like the other members of the
Performing and Fine Arts Department,
Sue believes it is really important to
give kids opportunities to display
their art and play their music. “Take
last year’s OMSI Salmon display, for
example. They knew it was the real
thing. Those kids will never forget
that experience."
For Sue, performing is one way she
shares the beauty in her world with
others. Though the congregation at the
Cathedral of St. John the Baptist were
saddened by Sue’s departure, after
11 years as organist, they've been
able to share in the joy of her success
with the Portland Baroque Orchestra.
Sue, who has played the harpsichord
since college, is thrilled by “the fact
that you can make money playing 300year old music.”
Sue is able to bring this music back
to life. “I love it because it’s outra­
geous, expressive...yet, at the same
time, expressive and rhythmic. Actually,
it's very similar to Jazz in its rhythm and
opportunities for improvising.”
Whether rehearsing with PBO,
accompanying the OES Choir or
guiding students in the creation of a
piece, Sue adamantly believes art
must be shared at all levels with all
people. “Money doesn’t mean you are
culturally rich. You don’t have to have
money to appreciate beauty. It’s a
matter of education and exposure and
attaching value."

Matt Lyon personifies the image
many people have of an artist —
creative, introspective, a man who
expresses his artistic talents in varied
mediums...from restoring vintage
motorcycles to re-creating prehistoric
bowls and figurines.
“I originally became interested in
ceramics as a student at Lewis &amp; Clark
when I saw a large book of Jomon
pottery," explains Matt, who earned
his MAT from Lewis and Clark and his
BA in Art History from Williams
College. Despite his interest in Jomon
pottery and Haniwa figurines, it took a
trip to Japan to focus his creative
juices on ceramics.
“I really got interested in pottery
when I visited the Tokyo Museum dur­
ing a Shukutoku trip. That trip had
some amazing off-shoots for me."
Indeed, Matt has already had a number
of shows and is looking forward to at
least three more in the coming months.
“Creating art to show publicly is
something real. My students get to see
the reality of preparing for a show —
the nitty gritty details.” In sharing his
experiences with his students, Matt
believes he has an opportunity to make
art “more real" to his students.
“All assignments are designed to
teach the components of art and
design — line, shape, color and the
value of texture. When I first began
teaching,” Matt recalls, "I started the
year with a specific set of exercises. I
learned it works much better to move
things around, so no one gets bored."
To accomplish this, Matt is
committed to getting his students
into the studio as quickly as possible.
"There is always some sort of introduc­
tion at the beginning of class, but art
is a ‘hands-on’ affair."

“I remember the first ceramic piece
I ever made. I was five years old and it
was a molded chick that I got to put
glaze on and take home. I’ll never for­
get that feeling."
Shelley Stoffer, who earned a BA in
art education with an emphasis on cer­
amics from the University of Oregon,
teaches art to children in Primary
through fifth grade. “My career as a
ceramic artist really began in college
with a clay class.”
In her first job, Shelley designed
exhibits at OMSI. After a period of
teaching school in New York City, she
returned to Portland and helped create
the clay program at the Children’s
Museum. She then moved to Artists in
Education, first as a coordinator, then
as an artist. She came to OES eight
years ago.
Throughout, Shelley continued to
work in clay — porcelain almost exclu­
sively — exhibiting locally, nationally
and internationally, including shows in
Japan. “I like to push it as hard as I
can," she says describing her work.
Her last show, held at the Graystone
Gallery in 1992, was a series of painted
platters inspired by Oregon land­
scapes. “I work with lots of natural
forms and rhythms — leafy, grassy,
wavy. It feels right. It excites me. It's
the way I see the world.
“In the classroom, I don't have to be
theoretical. It’s all first person. I can
share from my experience in the studio.
I remember what it’s like to be a child
and visually connected to the world."
She explains why she’s always
loved working with kids and clay. “I
need their enthusiasm, ideas, whimsy
and playfulness. It’s invigorating for
me. And for them — I encourage their
playfulness. I firmly believe that teach­
ing art, especially for young children,
should be non-judgemental. There's a
language of design, yes. But there's no
right, no wrong.”
"It's the little things that give life
beauty...my job is to help them see.”

embarks into new territory
A student’s view —
My first week at Summerbridge was full of surprises. The surprise that
most effected me was how nice everyone was. I was surprised at how
much homework we had. I mean, that’s what I do when I get home; I do
homework, period.
I was surprised by my schedule. I got to learn what I wanted to learn,
not what other people wanted me to learn. I was surprised that everyone
knew my name. That was a very pleasant surprise
I was surprised at how early we had to wake up. But I am not saying
that is all bad. There’s a good side, too. (I’ll tell you when I think of it.)
I was surprised how small the classes were. There’s only two people in
my math class. At [my school], there’s 24!
I was surprised at the warm greetings we get everyday as we get
off the bus. And the warm goodbyes as we leave. That was a very
pleasant surprise.
I was surprised at how short the day felt! It felt shorter than my regular
school day, even though it was two hours longer. I guess time does fly
when you’re having fun.
I was surprised that there were no dull classes! The Summerbridge
classes are short and sweet! I was surprised at how many games we
played, and how fun they all were.
Finally, I was surprised at how every staff member puts in 12 hours a
day for my education. This was the most pleasant surprise of them all.

Last summer I worked in New Orleans Summerbridge. I was sent to New Orleans so I could help start up
Summerbridge Portland in ‘93. As a second year staff I was put in more of a leadership role because I
already knew the ropes. I am on the “A-Team” which is the administration committee. We meet twice a
day and deal with logistics.

June 18, 93 Today was the first day of staff orientation. I met the last two staff members that I hadn’t met yet — Mike
Doran and Ralina Landwehr. It’s nice to already know the local staff, A-Team members, and the people who came in yes­
terday. Jenny Lovejoy from San Francisco is staying at my house. She is very friendly and I think we will get along fine. ATeam greeted everyone with a really corny song. I wonder what they thought of us?
I think the best part of my day was having a long talk with Oye. We talked about my growing up in Summerbridge, high
school, college, and thinking styles. I really trust him because he seems willing to go out on a limb for me. He told me that
he knew last summer when he saw me teach in New Orleans that I would be a good teacher. I asked him why he put me on
A-Team when I was only in high school. He said that it seemed like the most logical step for me in my Summerbridge expe­
rience. I feel better about being the only high schooler on A-team now because I know that I have Oye’s 100% support.

June 20, 93 Yesterday we all went on the OES ropes course. I especially liked the challenge where we had four “blind”
people who didn’t know what was going on, including me, and four "mute” people who did know what was going on. Our
challenge was to swing across about ten feet of ground to a platform and have everyone standing on it. I felt like I was on
a big adventure because I had no idea what it was I was supposed to do because, of course, the mute people couldn't
tell. It was exciting to swing on the rope because I had no idea how high up I was.

June 28, 93 Today was the first day the kids came and it was very interesting to see their reaction to being crowned like
Max in Where the Wild Things Are. My classes were okay but not as good as I had hoped that they would be. The first day
is always hard because it’s difficult to balance the getting to know each other games and real academic work. Before they
came in the classroom I had hidden numbers on note cards all over the room and they had to find them and play a game
with them. My second period class is all girls and they seemed really nervous. However my third period class is wild. They

My classes were great today and so was my soccer minicourse. (Actually it’s also Mike's minicourse.) We
work really well together, and the kids seem to enjoy soccer because many of them come early, running at full speed

Today was Spirit Day, a time for clubs to present their names in a skit and a chant. A-Team members don’t
have a club so we did a rap instead. I never thought that I would see myself rap, but I had a lot of fun. Theresa and I had
our pants down really low, shirts around our waists, and backwards hats on our heads. We practiced outside, and it was
funny because the kids were spying on us through their classroom windows.

Every morning we greet the buses and every afternoon we wave goodbye. It is amazing because I already know all of the
kids names and I have talked to almost all of them. When ever I slap hands with Coung and Aaron they always want to do
the Summerbridge handshake. I have to be on my tippy toes to reach their hands.

The best part of the day was my class when we played a fraction game. The game went well except Kory got upset
because he lost and stopped participating and said that he didn’t care about math. The good part was that at the end of
class I had a little talk with Kory and he said “ Yeah, I guess I care about math.”
July 12, 93 I am so happy because I made the students sit down by raising my voice and they responded. I feel like
they respect me. I had a conference with Valinda’s and Kory’s parents, and I think I made a good impression. I had a
great 2nd period — they got into the measuring their heights. They seemed to really grasp the idea of multiplication and
division of fractions. Third period wasn’t as smooth because Kory acted out and Kristina told me that she didn’t do her
homework because “ I don't do homework on weekends.” During after school time, I really connected with Kristina. I got
her caught up in her work and we talked about her grades and her frustrations with her regular school. She says that she
is happy to be in a class of four people instead of thirty-two. I think I am going to see an improvement in her performance.
There will still be hard times working with her, but she is coming around.

August 8
I can’t believe Summerbridge Portland's first summer is already over. Our theme, Where the Wild Things
Are, still rings clear in my memory. I remember the hours that we spent decorating the school. We cut out leaves, hung
streamers, made paper trees, hung up welcome signs, and made 36 crowns, one for each student.
As I sit and write this, taking bits and pieces from my journal and adding things that I remember from the summer, I am
sad because it is over. I will hopefully see all of my students during the year through Saturday School and tutoring, but it
won't be the same. I love Summerbridge. I am going to miss the staff tremendously. Now I can just look forward to next
summer and hope I enjoy it as much as this summer.

three first place finishes plus
a second place.
Both the Girls and Boys
teams had impressive finish­
es at the State competition
too. The Girls 1600 Relay
team finished 3rd place.
Individual performances by
Lisa Hayward, who placed
3rd and set a new School

The National Merit Scholarship Corporation named
Alex de Weese and Lisa Hayward, both graduates of
the Class of ‘93, as Finalists in the 1993 competition for
National Merit Scholarships. Alex and Lisa, who placed
in the top half of one percent of Oregon seniors, both
received congratulatory letters and Certificates of Merit.
AJex also received notification that he is the recipi­
ent of a $2000 Merit Scholarship. Merit Scholarship
winners, chosen by a committee of college admissions
officers and secondary school counselors convened for
this purpose, are Finalists judged to have the strongest
combination of abilities and accomplishments needed
for future academic success.
Lisa was awarded a College-sponsored Merit
Scholarship to Carleton College. There are 3200 such
awards each year, designated for particular colleges,
and the awards are renewable for up to four years.
Kevin Holliday, who was competing in Special
Scholarship division, received notification that he has
been awarded a renewable $500 scholarship from the
May Department Stores Company Foundation.

Students and faculty receive Cum Laude

in the regional section of the
Oregon Law Related Eduction
Program, commonly referred
to as Mock Trials, qualified
the OES team to advance to
the State Competition.
Over 250 students from 77
schools throughout Oregon
spent months preparing their
cases. At regional competi­
tions, which took place in six
areas throughout the state,
the top 21 teams were select­
ed to advance to the State
competition.
OES Parents Keith
Meisenheimer, a Senior District
Attorney for Multnomah
County, and the Honorable
Judge Dorothy Baker, District
Court Judge for the State of
Oregon for Multnomah County,
co-coached the OES team to
the finals. The Mock Trials,
held Friday and Saturday,
lApril 2-3, culminated in a
final match between OES and
Grant High School.
In the fictitious case, a
security guard, who also hap­
pens to be a member of a
white supremist organization,
assaults an African American
employee of a research lab

�during an animal rights
demonstration outside the
lab. Arrested for assault with a
deadly weapon, the security
guard is brought to trial and
charged with disorderly con­
duct and assault in State of
Oregon v. Stover.
Despite the fictitious nature
of the case, the students’
enthusiasm was very real. In
this unique competition, not
only must students prepare
cases for both the plaintiff and
the defendant, as they will be
expected to act as counsel for
both the plaintiff and the
defendant, but they must also
role-play all the roles involved
in the case — attorneys, wit­
nesses and court officials.
The second place finish is
an outstanding accomplish­
ment for a team competing
for its second year. In fact,
this year's winner, Grant,
placed second in last year’s
Mock Trials.

“She’s coolIcrazyI

say her students

with obviously
intense adoration.

This can’t be science
it’s too much fun
Oh, but it is science. And fun.
Thanks to Lower School science
specialist Jane Kenney-Norberg,
OES students enjoy designing
houses for little piggies that the
wolf (a vacuum cleaner) can't blow
down, building LEGO® robots that
walk, squishing “flubber” in a sum­
mer unit called "Goop, Globs and
Slimy Stuff” and taking a walk
through the wetlands wearing
socks outside their boots.
What kind of teacher would call a
unit "Kaboom!!!”? Let alone admit
that she landed a job teaching
TAG in Portland because she said
“I like to blow things up and leave
spots on the walls”? Who is Jane
Kenney-Norberg, and how did she
become...well, herself?
“She’s cool/crazy/great/wonderful,”
say her students with obviously
intense adoration. “She’s a creative
inspiration for us all,” answers
Assistant Head of Lower School for
Curriculum Development Sidney
Gold.

Jane comes from a family of scien­
tists and doctors. “My father still
uses a hemostat as a repair tool,
and my mother doesn’t have dish­
es in the cupboard — she has bird
books,” says Jane calmly. “They
never really pushed me into sci­
ence. I thought for years that I just
wanted to teach.”

“It bothered me then. I knew it was
science and, therefore, was sup­
posed to be exciting. So I thought I
was missing something. The whole
reason I teach science the way I do
is that I want the kids (and myself)
to have as much fun as I didn’t.”

Jane’s middle school experience
was better. "In the eighth grade
I was selected as a mouse keeper,
learned all about mice, even
wrote a paper, thereby avoiding
a great deal of boring paper and
pencil science.”
“In high school, I didn’t have to take
the freshman course on "how to
work a lab scale” and other elemen­
tary procedures which was taught
by an English teacher. (No offense
intended — I couldn’t teach
Hamlet.) As a sophomore, I had a
woman biology teacher that was
rumored to favor bright male stu­
dents. Even with a teacher that
could have been a role model, I felt
like I had to prove myself everyday.”
“As juniors we were convinced our
chemistry teacher was just this
side of nuts,” she says, relishing
the memory. “But we learned and
had fun, especially with open-end­
ed lab experiments. I think there’s
a bit of him in me.” That year Jane
also joined Future Teachers of
America and taught science and

“My one memory of elementary
science was of a physicist (a friend
of my father’s) who came to my
class. He brought some neat new
things — plastic bags! He asked a
boy to help measure water, and
watching the results turn out ‘per­
fect’, I realized that even this Ph.D.
had set up this experiment to suc­
ceed.” She also remembers phony
plastic microscopes with “slides”
that were round photographs of
real magnifications. “The rest," she
says with considerable scorn, “we
read from the book.”

“It seemed like a good thing to do

“In my senior year, the most
important thing I learned was that
one should not take physics while
living in a house with a university
physics professor who ONLY
teaches graduate courses.” (Her
dad was a professor at Berkeley.)
“I went to the University of the

really wanted the science first, to
live and breathe the subject before
I taught it.” Because she pursued

her for four years, then stayed

They published twice in fruit fly
cytogenetics; the first article came
out her freshman summer.

“Working with Dr. Hunter made
me realize that I could contribute
something significant and impor­
tant in science." Jane decided
to go to medical school, but was
torn between the clinical and
research aspects.
Jane found a flier from Oregon
Health Sciences University about
their new PhD program in genetics
— a perfect combination.
“Ultimately it didn’t work out for
my career path, though, and I
went to the University of Oregon

For Jane, the science and fun are
inseparable. “Why shouldn’t it be
enjoyable?” The house for little
piggies is a design technology
project, the “slimy stuff” is polymer
chemistry. “It’s real science, not
tricks,” says science teacher and
colleague Lou Paff. “Science the
kids will never forget.”
Jane says she teaches for the
“WOW” factor. “Then I not only
have their attention, but I have their
interest and curiosity.” She builds
from the least to the greatest WOW
experiment, creating “an atmos­
phere of discovery”. I do not dis­
count any idea, unless it is a safety
hazard or interferes with another
student. I encourage students to
test their ideas — hypotheses.”

“I teach the way I do because I
believe it’s so important that kids
realize that science is part of every­
thing. They can do it themselves —
it’s not scary, or too hard."

▲ Sue Nicol

New Director of Development appointed
OES Headmaster Peter Stevens
announced the appointment of
Sue Nicol as the School’s new
Director of Development in July.
Sue has served the Admissions
Department at OES since 1982,
representing the School to parents
and friends in the PortlandVancouver area, across the coun­
try and around the world.
Peter explained that Develop­
ment is a broad concept that
embraces the advancement of the
whole school community on a
number of fronts. “It includes all
our external efforts to enhance
our lives here. Development
includes admissions, which is an
area that stimulates interest in the
School among prospective stu­
dents and parents. It includes pub­
lic relations, which is the School’s
effort to get its message out to the
local, regional, national and inter­
national communities. And it
includes fundraising, our efforts to
seek charitable contributions for
school enterprises, endowments,
programs, scholarships and build­
ings from all sources: parents,
past parents, friends, alumni,
trustees and faculty/staff, corpora­
tions and foundations.”

“This move comes at a time
when the School is working to
position itself firmly to meet the
development challenges envi­
sioned by OES/21. Most notably,
these include the raising of funds
for improved faculty and staff com­
pensation, and improvement in the
School’s facilities in the areas of
Middle School, fine and performing
arts, science and computer
instruction, libraries and additional
indoor athletic space,” said Peter.
“As Oregon Episcopal School
moves to implement the ambitious
and exciting plans created by
OES/21, the School’s strategic
plan, Sue Nicol will assume the
direction of those efforts,” said
Peter, noting that Sue was “a nat­
ural for the position".
Sue joined OES in 1981 as a
third grade teacher. A year later,
she was appointed as Director of
Admissions. "During Sue’s eleven
years in admissions, she has
become the first — for many a
continuing — contact at OES for
hundreds of children and families.
She has pioneered our admissions
and development efforts abroad
for the boarding program in the
Upper School. And she has gained

respect from admissions col­
leagues in independent schools
nationally for her interest in promo­
tion,” said Peter.
According to Peter, Sue will
work closely with the Board of
Trustees’ Development
Committee, a group which is
charged with implementing the
School’s Mission through provid­
ing non-tuition/fee support. She
will be a principal advisor to the
Headmaster and will work closely
with him and the three Division
Heads in the daily operation of the
School. She will also oversee an
office which will support and pro­
mote volunteerism at OES.
Louisa Zendt, who joined the
OES staff a year ago, has been
appointed as Interim Director of
Admissions. “Louisa’s experience
with independent schools and her
work as an associate with the
Admissions Office last year have
prepared her well to serve our
admissions process.” She will
work closely with Sue and the
Admissions Office staff. During the
fall, OES will begin a national
search for a new permanent
Director of Admissions.

Gifts that keep giving

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

Bequests — through wills or
revocable trusts — ensure the
future of Oregon Episcopal School.
Such gifts may be unrestricted
or designated for faculty growth
and development, financial aid or
other School programs.
Bequests are invested with the
School’s endowment funds which
are currently valued at $4.6 million.
Only the income is used each
year, and as the endowment grows
so does the annual income. An
original bequest continues to grow
over time.
The total amount of a bequest is
exempt from federal estate tax and
is also generally not subject to state
inheritance or estate taxes.
Bequests may be made in the form
of cash, real estate, securities or
personal property. It is sometimes
advantageous to designate OES as
the beneficiary of the remainder of

an IRA, KEOGH, tax-sheltered
annuity, qualified pension or profitsharing plan, since retirement plans
that remain in an estate are often
subject to both state and income
taxes when received by the heirs.
Types of bequests:
In a Specific Bequest, OES
receives an specified amount or
specified assets, such as securities,
real estate of personal property.
Under a Residuary Bequest, the
School receives all or a percentage
of the remainder of an estate, after
payment of specific amounts
bequeathed to other beneficiaries
named in the will.
A Testamentary Trust provides
income from the trust to one or
more individuals, upon whose
death(s) all or part of the principal
passes to the School.
A bequest to OES can be made
by creating or changing a will,

12

adding a codicil to a present will
or including the School in a revo­
cable trust.
The OES Heritage Society rec­
ognizes and honors alumni, par­
ents and friends who have remem­
bered the School in their wills or
revocable trusts.
Through the years, Oregon
Episcopal School has received
both large and small bequests
from individuals who wanted to
give a gift that keeps giving.
For more information, please
contact the OES Development
Office at 503-246-7771.

HEADMASTER'S REPORT
Dear Friends,

Every year at Thanksgiving I read to
the School a 1936 Thanksgiving
Proclamation first written and deliv­
ered by Governor Wilbur Cross of
Connecticut, and first read to me at
my father's knee. As I reflect on this
year past, this year symbolized by
summaries, names, pictures, and
statistics in The Mustard Seed, I am
reminded of Governor Cross’ ringing
prose of thanksgiving, for we have so
much to be grateful for:
“Time out of mind at this turn of the
seasons when the hardy oak leaves
rustle in the wind and the frost gives
a tang to the air and the duskfalls
early and the friendly evenings
lengthen under the heel of Orion, it
has seemed good to ourpeople to join
together in praising the Creator and
the Preserver, who has brought us by
a way that we did not know to the
end of another year.”
1992-93 was our 123rd year, and
The Mustard Seed is one way in
which we can pause and give thanks:
to thousands of named donors and
supporters and volunteers, and to
others who, over the years, have
made this school possible today. I am
told of years when mere survival was
at question. I am told of others when
pure faith kept the School going.
Many alumni have shared tales of
bygone days which live in your
memories as crystal clear as 1992-93
lives in ours.
Surely, with the support of the
Creator and the Preserver, and
often through ways that we cannot
fathom, we have come to a joyous
end of another year.

. for the blessings that have been
our common lot and have placed
our beloved State with the favored
regions of earth — for all the crea­
ture comforts: the yield of the soil
that has fed us and the richer yield
from labor of every kind that has
sustained our lives — and for all
those things, as dear as breath to
the body, that quicken man’s faith
in bis manhood, that nourish and
strengthen his spirit to do the great
work still before him... ”
In this era of beleaguered education,
we at OES are indeed among the
“favored regions of earth.” We are
rich in human resources, in dedicat­
ed and committed volunteer support­
ers, in near-sacrificial faculty and
staff, and in exciting, eager young
people. We have done great things.
And, as ambitious people always
will, we have “great work” still
before us, work that is achievable
with your steadfast help and our
quickened spirit.

. for honor held above price;
for steadfast courage and zeal in
the long, long search after truth;
for liberty andforjusticefreely
granted by each to his fellow and
so as freely enjoyed... ”

I believe that fine, moral education is
indeed about honor and truth, about
liberty and justice. And, with all due
regard for the national debate, fine
education is indeed about choice, as
we hope to make a difference in the
lives of people, enabling them to
make those choices. In fact, democra­
cy is about choice. Your support in
1992-93 is given to these ends; and so
is it received.

“... andfor the crowning glory and
mercy ofpeace upon our land; —
that we may humbly take heart of
these blessings as we gather once
again with solemn andfestive rites
to keep our Harvest Home.”
Well, we know that peace upon our
land is still elusive, but if we did not
believe in its possibility, we could
not continue, year after year, to dedi­
cate ourselves to these tasks.

How do we make a difference in the
grand scheme, any of us? We can and
do, I believe, through good works
aimed al small groups; through our
own faith in the process of the
growth of people, of boys and girls,
of men and women; through our
devotion and charity and gifts of time
and wisdom and love and resources
to effective organizations. I think that
Governor Cross would applaud the
OES-BDH-SHH family, which for 124
years has nurtured this community of
learners, scholars, athletes, drama­
tists, scientists, writers, artisans, care­
givers, teachers, gardeners, custodi­
ans, trustees, parents, grandparents,
great-grandparents, friends, corpora­
tions, leaders. I give thanks this
autumn for you all, and for this
school, indeed one of “the favored
regions on earth.”
Thank you for making it possible.

Most sincerely,

/.

�REPORT FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE ZOARD
Dear Friends,
If a saying could characterize OES in
the past year it is perhaps “carpe
diem”, seize the day! This has been
demonstrated by the results of the
energy and work of many people.
Our financial situation is healthy and
enrollment is high. OES/21 is in place
as our guide for future directions.
Many volunteers have committed
their talents and their time. It has
been a year of enthusiasm and excel­
lence and strength.

Fiscally the School is in sound condi­
tion and our budget is managed pru­
dently. Generous friends have con­
tributed over $550,000 during the
year. This condition has allowed us
to enhance our curriculum, to add to
our computer technology, to focus
on increases in faculty and staff com­
pensation, and to continue needed
maintenance.

OES/21 has been adopted as the
long-range plan for our School.
The Board of Trustees set priorities
within this plan, and committees
are working on two major issues.
One is faculty and staff compensa­
tion. The other is the updating of the
campus Master Plan, including excel­
lent facilities for each division of the
School.
Many of our successes are due to the
efforts of volunteers. Parent organiza­
tions have been active. Their work
has included educational programs
and numerous special projects. The
auction this spring was terrific fun.
The event raised nearly $75,000 for
professional development for our

faculty. The Annual Fund was a
tremendous success and raised an all
time record of $299,088. Our Alumni
Association brought together alumni
for numerous on and off campus
spirited activities. The enthusiasm
and efforts of countless volunteers
have been great throughout the OES
community.
Many of our successes are due to the
leadership of OES. Peter Stevens, as
Headmaster, has provided direction
and great energy to life on the cam­
pus. Sean Gilronan completed his 2
1/2 year term as President of the
Board in January of this year. His
wisdom and commitment have been
invaluable.

As another academic year begins, we
can be confident that the faculty, staff
and administration will continue to
foster excellence at OES. Our chil­
dren will be challenged and encour­
aged in a community that
values them as individuals. We are
fortunate to have such talented and
caring professionals.

In closing, I want to express my
appreciation to my colleagues on the
Board of Trustees for their
guidance, time and involvement. And
to all the friends of OES, thank you,
each of you, for your interest and
your support of our School.
Sincerely,

�REPORT FROM THE PAST PRESIDENT OF THE EOARD

Dear Friends,
I close my term as president of the Board of Trustees with some wonderful memories and a sense of
renewed “momentum" within the School.
It has been a time of transition. We have welcomed a new Headmaster. Under the banner of OES/21,
we have begun our plan for the future. We have achieved record enrollments throughout the School.
We have strengthened our financial position through prudent management, and have refocused our
development efforts.

All of this would not have been possible without the extraordinary commitment of my fellow trustees, the
faculty and administrative staff, and a wonderful group of dedicated volunteers. My special thanks to Tony
Adams for his leadership in “reenergizing” our development program and to Peter Bechen who as treasurer
helped to strengthen the financial base of the School.
To Peter Stevens, my congratulations for his leadership of the School during this transitional period and my
gratitude for his patience in helping me to better understand the unique complexities of an educational insti­
tution such as OES. It has been a wonderful two-year partnership.

My best wishes to Elisabeth Lyon as she takes on the presidency for the next two years. Elisabeth offers an
impressive combination of experience, enthusiasm and dedication. I cannot think of a better person to help
lead OES in the years ahead.

My very best wishes to the entire OES community for continued success. I am confident that our best days
are just ahead ...
Sincerely,

Sean Gilronan

THE COMMON LINK and
PARENT ASSOCIATION
LINKS
he Common Link
serves as the com­
munication link for
community-wide interests
and activities, and operates
in cooperation with the
Parent Association Links
(PAL). The Parent Associa­
tion Links provide a way for
the parents of OES students
to become involved with
the School. The PALs spon­
sor many activities through
the course of the year, and
involve hundreds of volun­
teers. This involvement is
what makes the OES com­
munity special — that is the
magic of a great indepen­
dent school.
We wish to thank
everyone who volunteered
at Common Link and PAL
sponsored events. We wish
to give special recognition
to those individuals who
stepped forward and
assumed leadership roles.
Thank you.

CLASS AGENTS
lass agents were a new
component of the
Alumni Program this year.
The Agents serve as liaisons
between their class and the
alumni office. Responsibil­
ities include encouraging
classmates to attend alumni
events and giving a personal
touch to Annual Fund letters
and telephone calls. The
program was very success­
ful, with an increase in the
number of alumni who con­
tributed to the Annual Fund
this year. Thank you to the
class agents for their time
and dedication to the School
and their class. Keep up the
good work!

SUMMERBRIDGE PORTLAND
O ummerbridge Portland was founded in the fall of
O 1992 as a collaborative effort between Oregon
Episcopal School and the Catlin Gabel School with
the intention of preparing high-potential middle
school students for success in rigorous college
preparatory high school programs.
Classes began in June with a diverse group of 36
students from ten Portland public schools. The pro­
gram focuses particularly on students who have had
limited educational opportunities. A talented faculty
of 17 high school and college students serve as
teachers and role models.
The academically stimulating summer sessions
emphasize reading, writing, math, critical thinking
and study skills. The program also stresses leader­
ship, heightened self-esteem and creativity. The sum­
mer sessions are complimented by school-year tutor­
ing, counseling and enrichment to ensure
comprehensive support.
In addition to preparing middle school students
for success in high school, Summerbridge also serves
as a training ground for a new generation of teachers.
For our young faculty members, Summerbridge is a
total immersion into the field of education.
Summerbridge Portland is modeled after the original
Summerbridge program in San Francisco. At present,
there are approximately twenty Summerbridge pro­
grams nationwide.
Oregon Episcopal School is grateful to the fol­
lowing donors for supporting this important pro­
gram. And we wish to extend special recognition to
the Meyer Memorial Trust for their strong support
and commitment to the program.

Though most students’ plans involve
attending school in the fall, a few
have chosen to defer admission for a
year. While most completed the col­
lege application process, these
seniors have expressed an interest in
taking some time out from the
intense academic routine, and/or
persuing a special interest — particu­
larly travel or living abroad. Colleges
routinely allow accepted applicants
to defer if they have a good plan for
the year. Courtney Sherwood, for
example, is interested in returning to
Costa Rica where she spent some
time in the AMIGOS de las Americas
Program, and Matt Berman plans to
spend a post-graduate year at
Phillips Academy in Andover, MA.

�Alumni Association
President’s Corner
My official duties as President of
the Alumni Association begin with
this issue of The Belltower and
President’s Corner. Please take
a moment to read about our
new Board members; we had a
great orientation in the summer
and the group is enthusiastic,
energetic and ready to meet the
challenges of providing first-rate
alumni programs!
Reunion Weekend was great! We
had wonderful people, food, enter­
tainment and for a change —
weather! I was sworn in as the
new Alumni Board President at the
Memorial Chapel Service and
received the President’s gavel from
out-going President Meridel
Prideaux ‘59 prior to the luncheon
on Saturday. I cannot thank
Meridel enough for her work and
dedication to the Board, I will work
very hard to fill her shoes!

Looking at my calendar for the fall,
I see some great events for you to
attend: Plan to be on campus for
the second annual Alumni Soccer
Tournament on Saturday, Sep­
tember 11. We had a great turnout
last year and hope for an even
better one this fall. Kris Van
Hatcher ‘70 is the master-mind
behind this tournament. We need
players from the classes of 1967 to
1993 to make up the teams. (That
includes you, Benji Sawyer ‘81
and Brad Whitcomb *81!) So
brush off your cleats and get on
the phone to call your old team­
mates — even I might play!

I would like to invite you to attend
our Founders’ Day Luncheon on
November 17, at the Multnomah
Athletic Club. We will be awarding
the third Bishop Benjamin Wistar

Morris Distinguished Alumni Award
to an alum; as always the program
will be an exciting one. Our fea­
tured speaker will be the 1993
Biship Benjamin Wistar Morris
Distinguished Alumni Award recipi­
ent, Dr. June Dunbar Phillips ’51.
Dr. Phillips specializes in geriatrics
and has been in practice for 30
years. In 1982 she was the first
woman elected Chief of Staff at
Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital.
Dr. Phillips will address the issue of
our national health care crisis.

whelmingly positive! Production is
right on schedule and we are look­
ing forward to having this wonder­
ful resource available for everyone
in the fall of 1994.

In the last issue of The Belltower,
we announced that the new
Oregon Episcopal School Alumni
Directory will be published by The
Harris Company. The response
from our alums has been over­

Beloved teacher named honorary alumna
“Many people ask me why I don’t teach anymore, I always tell them I have too many fond
memories of my days at OES to teach anywhere else.” — Eleanor Fass, honorary alumna
Former Middle School Dean, Social
Studies Teacher and Director of
Residence, Miss Eleanor Fass
received the Honorary Alumna dis­
tinction at the Alumni Association’s
annual spring luncheon held
Saturday, June 19, 1993, during
Reunion Weekend. Miss Fass is the
first faculty member to be honored
with the distinction, which recog­
nizes an individual who has shown
great commitment and service to
the OES community.
Miss Fass, who earned an MA in
Geography from Clark University,
taught “social science” — geogra­
phy, history and government — at
OES from 1969 until her retirement
in 1985. She served as Dean of the
Middle School from 1969 to 1983.
In addition to teaching and admin­
istrative work, she advised the
social service group and spon­
sored a cooking club in the dorms.

After retiring, she moved to King
City and now is an active volun­
teer, “helping all the people [she]
didn’t have time for when [she]
was teaching”. Currently, she
works with King City’s Budget
Committee and Health and Social
Service Advisory Board and is sec­
retary for the Dial-A-Ride trans­
portation program. She also chairs
the Education Committee of the
local chapter of the Oregon Retired
Educators Association and delivers
Meals on Wheels. Miss Fass wears
her King City Volunteer lapel pin
with pride — last April, the King
City Council named Miss Fass their
first Volunteer of the Year.

When alumni were asked to send
in their favorite School memories,
The Alumni Office received
wonderful accounts of how Miss
Fass shaped and influenced
peoples’ lives, both personally
and professionally:

key did tremendous things for
my self esteem. ”

�Alumni Profile

Tanja Horvat
Vasiljevic '74 —
mother, physician,
refugee
Half way around the world, peace is
only a dream for the people of former
Jugoslavia. Few families have been left
unaffected by the atrocities war
inevitably brings. Here in the United
States, reactions to the war have been
varied. Some Americans remain con­
fused. Others are angered by the media
images, many reminiscent of the holo­
caust. Still others cannot understand the
attitudes of leaders who seem to be
behaving like ill-mannered children in
refusing to allow UN convoys to bring in
basic necessities.
As the death toll continues to rise —
over 12,000 in the Bosnian capital of
Sarajevo alone — isolated pockets of
people here in the United States work to
help where they can. Recently, a group
of concerned OESians banded together
to offer a safe haven to one of their own,
Tanja Horvat Vasiljevic ‘74.
“With only 35 people in the Class of
1974, Tanja was an integral comrade in
our closely knit band of boarding and day
students," wrote Autumn Alexander ‘74,
who is Valley Life editor for the Yakima
Herald-Republic, in a front page story.
“Long after high school, traveling class­
mates would make the effort to get to
Sarajevo to seek her out as she studied
to be a doctor."
Like many Jugoslavians, Tanja, who
had spent most of her life in Sarajevo
which is a sophisticated city about the
size of Portland, gave little thought to the
ethnic and religious differences that are
an integral part of the region's history.
When World War II ended, many people
hoped that the creation of a single unified
country would allow people to bury the
ethnic strife of the past 1300 years.
Under the leadership of President Tito,
Jugoslavia earned a reputation as the
most progressive communist county. In
retrospect, many feel that it was unrealis­
tic to expect a country with 24 ethnic
groups, three major religions, two alpha­
bets and six different republics — Serbia,

Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herce­
govina, Macedonia and Montenegro —
to find peace within its borders.
Tanja seemed to be a living example of
what Jugoslavia might have become.
When, in her early twenties, Tanja met
Nino Horvat, the two never felt a need
to discuss their heritage — she is
Serbian and he Croatian. “We are both
Bosnians — there isn’t any difference,”
she explained. Later, Tanja would say,
“This (war) started with hate. After World
War II, hate wasn’t burned out; the Serbs
wanted to go get Muslims and Croats."
By May of 1992, despite efforts to keep
life as normal as possible — both for
themselves and their 5-year-old daughter,
Ivana, the Horvats could no longer ignore
the snipers who had forced them to live in
the hallway of their apartment for safety.
Life quickly began to disintegrate. First,
the scarcity of food forced Tanja and Nino
to save anything with nutritive value for
Ivana. Then the electricity and water
stopped, leaving only a shallow pool in the
bathtub. Tanja was torn between conflict­
ing desires — keeping her family together
or finding freedom and relative safety.
Tanja braved the snipers to scour the city
for a convoy that might take them to safety
and located one through the university
where she had worked.
When recalling the painful departure
from her husband, Tanja says, “I had the
feeling that I won’t come back.” After a
harrowing journey across the border,
Tanja and Ivana made their way to her
mother’s home in Montenegro.
In Montenegro, Tanja’s Serbian moth­
er shared stories of her treatment at the
hands of Croats during World War II.
“She had bad feelings about Croats,”
Tanja said. "Well, I had bad feelings
about Serbs. They were shooting at me
and my child. If they were Martians I
would be angry about that — it didn’t
matter what I am — what mattered is
who shoots at me from the hill."
As rumors of increasing fighting reached
the town, and money became increasingly
tight, Tanja realized the time had come to
move on. Despite letters of guarantee from
friends in Portland and a classmate in the
United States State Department who was
pulling for her, the only answer she
received from the U.S. Embassy in
Belgrade was “Sorry, sorry, sorry."
Finally, in September, Tanja accepted
a visa arranged by a refugee friend in
Germany. Hating to go even farther away
from Nino, Tanja and Ivana reluctantly
boarded the train for Munich. With the
help of her refugee friends, Tanja, who
spoke no German, found a place to live.
And, despite her experience as a derma­

19

tologist back home in Sarajevo, the only
job Tanja was able to find was menial
labor in a nursing home.
“I don’t care about money, nothing is
important,” she said. “After you have
everything, and now you don't have any­
thing, you start asking yourself, what is
important in your life."
One of the best things in Tanja's life has
been the rare letters from Nino. Each letter
carries gruesome details — friends who
are dead or have lost arms and legs —
and a sense of despair, since Nino feels
his chances to get out are “about zero".
In a letter she sent to Autumn, Tanja
wrote, "I am not a religious person but I
start to pray to gods to help him. It's the
only thing I can do.
I was listening to Radio Sarajevo the
last few nights, and I noticed that things
are changed and some new people are
on the air. The old people from the city
escape from Sarajevo, and new people
full of hate are in town. They are scared,
hungry, horrified with death but used to
it, they smell blood and they want blood.
That is a town I couldn't recognize and
the people I couldn't recognize.
I don’t have my country anymore, I
don't have my town, I don't have my
home, I don't have my family. What else
can I lose? Only mind!
The people without the land are
accursed to go around the world in
search for a place, but usually they don’t
find it. Dorothy, from the Wizard of Oz is
a lucky girl. The only thing she had to say
is: There is no place like home — and she
was in Kansas.
I don’t have magic shoes.
On April 6, it was one year from the
beginning of the war in Bosnia. That day
we were watching on the TV a journal
about the war in Sarajevo, and Ivana start­
ed to cry when she saw two dead babies,
telling me: “Why did we go out and leave
my father alone? He’ll be dead like those
babies and I’ll never see him again."
Then I started to cry — I usually don’t
do that in front of her — but...
Then she took two teddy bears, one
for her to hug and one she gave me to
hug, and then I started to laugh. It’s very
hard for me to be alone with her, but I'm
lucky to have her.
From my past life I have only three pic­
tures here with me (and lots of memories.)
Ivana doesn't want to look at it because,
she said, “I don't want my father on a pic­
ture, I want him here with me.
So my past was hard, my present is
hard and I have only a hope that my
future is going to be better. I'm happy
that I have a hope in spite of everything. I
must be brave or crazy. I don't know... “

Excerpts from a not-so-typical
letter from an OES Alum

Last May, Meredith Boatsman
‘88 returned from a six-month
Lewis &amp; Clark program in Kenya,
where she spent the first two
weeks taking Swahili immersion
classes which typically met to
cram in the shade of an enormous
tree. “We quickly progressed from
street greetings like habari yako to
the liberal use of hakuna matata,
hip for ‘no problem’.” Her homes­
tay families helped by translating
words she tossed out while trying
to cope with the numerous
dialects and the Kikuyu language.
“I adjusted to the pole-pole or
slow-paced tempo. We were
awakened every morning by the
Muezzin’s early prayer call, along
with donkeys braying, roosters
crowing and all sorts of other ani­
mals kicking up a symphonic
cacophony.
"Travel from Nairobi to
Mombassa by ancient train is a
book of experiences in itself. And
to Lamu by boat in a hand-hewn
dhow — definitely pole-pole. There
were leopards leaping, lions lunch­
ing, giraffes galloping and ele­
phants grazing...on the way to
Masa Mara, Kericho, Bilisu and
Samburuland.
“I rode on the back of a 100plus-year old turtle and climbed
a 9000-foot mountain that took
us through four climate/vegetation
levels. I learned how to pick out
dinner, kill it, skin it and roast it
on the spot...Our work project
was to build a school house out of
coral blocks.”
Only just home, Meredith pack­
ed her bags again to begin a year­
long tour with “Up with People".
“P.S. Many thanks to the great
people at OES who helped me
produce a 120-page thesis enti­
tled A Glimpse of the Sociocultural
Issues Which Surround Transracial
Adoption [from] A Transracial
Adoptee's Perspective. Over 90
copies have been sold and a pub­
lisher is interested.” [Note: Since
Meredith graduated in 1988, she
has “formally met" her biological
father, had a reunion with her bio­
logical mother, met a sister she
didn’t know existed and talked
about it all on AM Northwest.]

�Aimee Froom ‘87 has been
accepted as a doctoral candi­
date at New York University’s
Institute of Fine Arts. She grad­
uated from Brown University
Cum Laude with a double
major in French and Art History
in 1991. She spent the last two
years studying with Islamic Arts
expert, Walter Denny at the
University of Massachusetts at
Amherst and just received her
MA.

Apart from his work with
Tom Grant, Patrick Lamb ‘88
is already riding high, having
recently played at the annual
Salishan Jazz Festival with
bassist Ray Brown and pianist
Benny Green. Patrick also plays
regularly with bluesman
Norman Sylvester and his own
R &amp; B band. Look for a CD
from Patrick in the near future!

Courtney Boatsman ‘88
married Kevin Howard on
December 26, 1992. Kevin is a
sub-contract administrator with
the Boeing Company on special
assignment in Atlanta, Georgia
Courtney will join him in
Atlanta upon her graduation
from Lewis &amp; Clark with a
degree in Bio-Sciences. The
degree is her first step toward a
career goal in genetic counsel­
ing. When Kevin completes his
Boeing assignment, the couple
will reside in Seattle
Kristina Hodgers ‘88 is
studying in Barcelona, Spain
this year. Her husband, Chris
Lashbaugh Hodgers ‘88,
joined her at the beginning of
the summer to travel for two
months around Europe. The
Hodgers will return to Portland
in the fall when Chris will begin
his first year of medical school
and Kristy will finish her degree
at Portland Slate. “No family as
of yet — not for several years!
Our cal is enough for right
now.”

Ashleigh Asaph ‘90 spent
the past semester studying in
Dijon, France. She will be a
senior at Colgate University in
New York in the fall, majoring
in International Relations.
Charlie Adams ‘92
completed his freshman year
at Connecticut College and
his first season on the men’s
squash team. Charlie, who
competed in 17 matches, was
a big asset to the team. The
team came away with a 5-14
record earning wins against
Colgate, Babson and Wesleyan

�Tennis teams win State
In May, the OES campus buzzed with news of Boys and
Girls Tennis teams who took the State Combined A-AA-AAA
Tennis Championship on May 21-22 in Roseburg. Girls’
Coach Coleen Conkey attributes this year’s winning season
to “team effort”, a team effort that clearly paid off when OES
swept the court at the State Finals.

teams battling for 1st and 2nd place.
The tension of watching Kyle and
Tyler Freres battle Kazuya Suzuki and Stefan Sanne over­
came Coach Mike Devenney, who admitted that he couldn’t
watch. The fantastic match ended with a hard won victory by
the Freres brothers.
Though Joe Matheson, the School’s number one boys sin­
gles, injured himself the day before the match, he demon­
strated the mark of a true athlete, winning his first match by
switching back and forth between right and left handed play.

A A banner-toting airplane was just one of the many surprises
during the Opening Day festivities.

Greeted by perfect weather, over 700 students returned to campus
with their parents on September 7, 1994, to kick off the 125th Anniversary
of Oregon Episcopal School. The School’s long history in Portland was
honored on this occasion with the presence of SHH, BDH and OES
alumni and special guests, including the Royal Rosarians, who planted
the OES 125th Anniversary rose in honor of the occasion.
Over 1,000 brass bells were rung in succession by students, parents,
alumni, faculty and staff, and a banner-toting airplane proclaimed the
anniversary celebration. The 125th Anniversary Song was sung by all,
and the fifth grade carried out their traditional bell ringing. This year,
there were 125 rings of the bell that has followed the School since its
founding in 1869. A reception for alumni and special guests followed
in the 125th Commemorative Rose Garden, where the new School rose
has been planted.
In keeping with the momentous nature of this special year, this fall
edition of The OES Belltower is devoted to the memories of our alumni.
Reflected in the photos, quoted anecdotes, and excerpts from School
publications is the spirit of Oregon Episcopal School which has endured
throughout the past 125 years.

�Change and Continuity:
Cynthia Doran,
Counseling OES
Students Since 1965
A s the faculty member who
XAcurrently holds the longest
tenure at Oregon Episcopal
School, Cynthia Doran gamely
enters her twenty-seventh year of
teaching and counseling during
this 125th anniversary year.
“I don’t mind being a historic
relic!” she jokes.
Cynthia joined the staff of the
School in 1965, when it was still
St. Helens Hall for girls. Initially
a history, English, and religion
teacher for sophomores and
juniors, Cynthia filled her current
post of college counselor in 1977,
and has turned that program into
a curriculum staple for OES
juniors and seniors.
The college counseling pro­
gram includes a handbook for
OES students and their parents,
which Cynthia wrote, and period­
ic informational meetings, includ­
ing visits from college admissions
officers. Cynthia herself routinely
visits colleges and attends
National Association of College
Admission Counselors and
College Board meetings. During
Winterim, she holds a one week

introductory program for juniors,
called College Decisions, and
throughout the academic year
there is intensive, one-on-one
advising for Seniors before, dur­
ing and after the college applica­
tion process.
In an interview with The OES
Belltower in its Autumn, 1992
issue, Cynthia reflected on the
ways in which the School had
changed—and remained the
same—over the past 25 years
since she joined the staff:

OES has become a much
more informal place. When
Mrs. Fariss walked through
the Great Hall 25 years ago,
everyone stood up...Uniform
regulations were rigid. And 25
years ago, no one would have
dreamed of calling me Cynthia.
Some of the best things have
remained constant. This School
has always had a sense of com­
munity—almost like a family.
OES also has a love of—almost
celebrates—the individual...
And, I guess finally, we have
a respect for learning. It’s one
of our keystones. We are able
to inculcate a love of learning.
Today, Cynthia emphasizes
that, like OES, her job as college
counselor has evolved.

▲ Cynthia Doran counsels an
earnest member of the senior
class.
“The emphasis at OES has
always been on academic suc­
cess, and hand-in-hand with that
emphasis is the desire for our stu­
dents to go to what is thought of
as a ‘great college’,” Cynthia says.
“But I also think that students
today understand more than ever
that they need to find a good
match. They’re looking for a col­
lege experience that is right for
them as individuals.”

Sister Agatha Louise, the
principal, was my favorite teacher.
She was so firm, but so kind. The
strict regimentation was only a
part of the total experience, but
helped me realize the importance
of self-discipline. The Sisters
were wonderful!

holds life’s stories both joyful and
painful. We belong in a place that
remembers those who gave it life.
OES is such a place.
In the seven years I have been
a part of OES I have never seen
this school—this community—
look to the future without first
taking courage and wisdom
from its past. Whether on the
playing field, in the classroom,
in a faculty or board meeting or
in the dorm, there is the constant
question that underlies every
decision, and the life of this com­
munity: "Does what we are doing
today honor those who came
before us?”
I am pleased to say that it
does. I have never heard anyone
say “OES used to be such a
good school." Sure, the School
has changed—it’s designed to.
Life is supposed to go on. But
through the years and all the
changes, students, parents,
alumni, faculty and staff have
continued a tradition of excel­
lence that goes back 125 years.
Today we honor 19 people
who have lived that tradition
and passed it on to us. I teach

in the Middle School and...Mary
Reynolds is among those we
remember today. Her grand­
daughter, Margaret Reynolds,
just received the Faculty Award
for outstanding scholarship
and positive contributions to
the OES community.
The tradition goes on. The
lights of our past show the way
for our future.

�Still the Everglade
&gt; &lt; any S*' Helens Hall and
jLVAjunior College alumnae
have fond memories of the
leisurely weekends they spent
at Everglade, a house on Lake
Oswego purchased in 1930 to
be used for recreation, includ­
ing swimming, canoeing,
motor boating and tennis.
Appropriately, the Everglade
is now owned by an alumna of
St. Helens Hall, Shirley Fulton
Coan ‘32, who moved there
with her husband and three
children in the 1960s. The
house remains much the same
today as it was in the ‘30’s.
In 1950, The Rev. Lansing
Kempton purchased Everglade
from the Sisters who directed
St. Helens Hall, bur made only
minor changes to rhe house.
Shirley and her husband Ralph
have remodeled the house
over the years since they
bought it, but only under the
original roofline.

from St. Helens Hall and the
Junior College is now the mas­

vices on Sunday mornings.
Many of the same huge fir
trees still surround Everglade,
although a grove of about
twenty which stood by the lake
were cut down by Father
Kempton, presumably because
they blocked the view.
Shirley, who was a school
teacher for many years in West
Linn and Lake Oswego, and
remains a flourishing watercol­
or artist, has many memories of
her times at Everglade as a stu­
dent at St. Helens Hall.
“I remember the Sisters used
to pull their habits up and tie
them behind their backs, to go
out in the canoes and motor
boat,” she laughs. “We had a

Participation,
Top Facilities and Fun:
A Winning
Combination
■ n the past twenty years since
I Athletics Director Kris Van

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

Hatcher ‘70 first joined the staff
at Oregon Episcopal School, its
sports program has changed a
great deal.
“We’ve always had strong
teams,” Kris emphasizes, “but in
the past ten years the sports pro­
gram has really gotten stronger."
Over the past five years, more
than 80 OES athletes have
received individual recognition
including All-League and All­
State honors. The girls soccer
team won the State Champion­
ship in 1993, and the boys track
team was the District Champion
in 1994. OES fencers have been
the State Champions every year
since 1988, and both the girls’
and boys’ tennis teams have won
the State Championship for the
past two years, with the girls’
team taking the singles champi­
onship and the boys’ winning the
doubles championship for the
last two years.
The success, Kris says, can be
partly attributed to a variety of

facility changes at the School.
The new Yanagitani track, donat­
ed by OES parents Kazunori and
Tei Yanagitani in 1988, the addi­
tion of SPARC during the same
year, and the improvements to
the School’s three outdoor soc­
cer fields have given the sports
program an extra edge, in both
practice and competition.

Since Kris became the head of
the program 10 years ago, he has
also made a real effort to create a
philosophy among his staff which
reflects the belief that success in
athletics is only part of the equa­
tion. Participation and fun, he
says, are just as important. He
also emphasizes that a great deal
of the success of the OES athlet­
ic program can be attributed to a
staff that follows through on this

16

philosophy and brings it out in the
students who participate.
The “no cut policy” means
that as long as students have the
desire to play, they can be mem­
bers of a team and will play on a
regular basis, regardless of their
level of achievement. OES has
had 80% participation over the
past ten years, despite the chal­
lenge of balancing schoolwork
and sports.
“It’s got to be difficult," Kris
acknowledges, “But I really
believe that it makes the kids
more organized overall, and gives
them more energy.”
Another tribute to the success
of the athletic program at OES
came when four of its coaches—
Kris, Coleen Conkey, Mike
Devenney and Rich Sherwood—
were named Coach of the
Year on either the District or
State Level during the 1993-’94
school year.
“The bottom line is that OES
is blessed with talented kids
who are also really intelligent,”
Kris says. “Kids can get an
excellent education at OES,
as well as a strong athletic
program, where they’ll play
more and get more individual
attention than at other schools."

Eight years have passed since that terrible month of May and I am forgetting things I thought at that time
would be impossible to ever forget. That period was, without question, one of the most significant events in
my life, and, I know, for many of you as well...
The students we remember today were a lot like you in their interests, their passions, their highs and lows,
their constant struggle to find out who they were...My father died that same year and I spoke at his funeral
about those lost on Mt. Hood and those struggling to cope with survival. I said that I have come to realize
that life was like a book and that the number of pages one had was not as important as the quality of each
page. I made a promise to try and fill each page of my book with something of quality...
In closing I would like to mention two people who survived the tragic accident...Brinton Clark sends word
through her parents that she is using her drawing skills to illustrate health posters for the inhabitants of a tiny
village in Ghana where she works trying to improve the quality of life for people so desperate for care and
hope...Giles [Thompson] dropped into the office the other day with his fiancee Marie Lorraine and their 5
month old son Lewis. As we sat talking, catching up on all the years, I looked at Lewis and I thought to
myself that this is what this special day is all about. It is about remembering the past for the promises made,
for the lessons learned, and it is for looking to the future.

of the 125th anniversary of Oregon
Episcopal School Throughout the past cen­
tury and a quarter, the loyally of the
School's former students, faculty, staff, par­
ents and extendedfamilies has remained
true, as a tribute to the strength of its acade­
mics and to the spirit within its walls.

When my youngest daughter, Kathy, was graduated from
the OES Upper School in 1971, my wife Mary and I calculated
that our four children had been involved in over 50 years of
education at St. Helens Hall, Bishop Dagwell Hall and Oregon
Episcopal School! How did this happen, and what brought
about such loyalty?

One of thefinest examples of this allegience
has been displayed over the past five decades
by the Reynoldsfamily. Allfour children of
Carl and Mary Reynolds were enrolled in and
graduatedfrom the School during the ‘50s,
‘60s and ‘70s. Carl Reynolds and his father
were both faculty members at St. Helens Hall

I will have to start out by saying that
it was my wife Mary who got me
involved. It was she who was search­
ing for a pre-school for our second
oldest daughter, Becky, and discov­
ered the St. Helens Hall pre-school on
the old downtown campus at 13th and
Hall Street. At this time our oldest
daughter, Lydia, was attending a pub­
lic school on the East side of Portland,
and Mary had joined their PTA. Mary
became aware that she was having
problems in her class. We were about
to move to the West side of town, and
decided to try our daughter out in the
4th grade at St. Helens Hall.

self as an English teacher, and then had been appointed the
head of St. Helens Hall Junior College for 15 years. After the
Junior College was closed in 1947 (which she deeply regretted),
there was a period of uncertain leadership, until Mrs. Fariss was
brought back to take charge of St. Helens Hall in 1954.

There, her teacher noticed at once that Lydia seemed to have
trouble seeing. She would come to the front of the room to
sharpen a pencil, in order to see what was on the blackboard.
The teacher suggested that we have her eyes examined, and
we were shocked to find that she couldn’t read the big E on
the eye chart!

She had the challenging task of maintaining the School’s high
academic standards, small classes, and high moral and spiri­
tual reputation with a most inadequate budget. Mrs. Fariss, by
this time, had excellent connections with the academic world,
and a talent for finding dedicated and highly qualified teachers
who were willing or able to teach for embarrassingly low
salaries. This was possible, of course, because the teaching
conditions were so favorable, but it was not a healthy situa­
tion, and one of which Mrs. Fariss was acutely aware.

With proper glasses, the whole world became clearer for
Lydia. The value of the small classes, personal attention and
very caring teachers was dramatically evident to us. We soon
found that this was characteristic of the School. Mary quickly
became an active parent, attending meetings, joining work
parties and learning about the School.

One of the things we learned early on was that the School was
in a very precarious financial condition. When Mary and I
became involved in 1953, Gertrude Fariss had been asked to
take over as the head of the School. She had taught there her-

Enrollment was always a critical problem. The boarding
department was financially the strongest branch of the School.
St. Helens Hall had always been a boarding
school, one of the few still available in the
Pacific Northwest. Parents with girls from
remote locations all over the West sought it out.
The Upper School was hard put to find space
for those wanting to enroll. There was more
room for day students, however, and the prob­
lem was that of making sure that the School
only admitted students who were qualified.

This Mrs. Fariss did with rigorous protection of
the School’s academic standards. She was very
good at suggesting positive alternatives to par­
ents whose children did not meet the School’s
requirements. As Mary and I became more
familiar with the operation of the School, we
realized it was worth all of the support we could
give it.
The rising financial pressure had resulted in
many neglected aspects of the physical plant.
The front entrance area of the School had
become overgrown and unsightly. The rose gar­
den had disappeared amid tall grass, bushes
and overgrown trees.

Another crisis that came up was of a different nature. Just as
the School was about to begin a new academic year, Miss
McKirdie, the Upper School’s acclaimed history teacher,
became seriously ill and had to take the entire year off. Mrs.
Fariss was in a real dilemma about how to replace her, and the
upshot was that my father and I undertook to teach her class­
es. I was at that time teaching an introductory course in the
history of Western Art and Architecture at Portland State
College, and it was not hard for me to take over the Ancient
and Medieval history course. My father, as an experienced lec­
turer in sociology, took over the modern European History
course. We simply had to keep ahead of the students’ assign­
ments, and managed to do so!

My father, a pro­
fessor of sociology
at Stanford
University, had
recently retired
and returned to
Portland where
he had grown up.
He and I undertook
to clean up the
School’s front
entrance. We felled

area and had
George Otten, a
landscape architect working on our own property, do some
planting around the entrance leading up from the street to the
front entrance door. That fall, the traditional Old Girl-New Girl
Tea was held in the greatly improved front yard of the School.

All of these experiences gave Mary and me an intimate
knowledge of the School—its history, traditions, finances
and workings. Above all, it gave us a great respect for Mrs.
Fariss and her staff and the high quality of the teachers she
had assembled. There is a spirit about a school of this kind
that makes one feel that there are few things more worthwhile
that one can support. That is why we were ready to face a
new and more grave threat to the future of the School in
1964, when we learned that a freeway was being planned
to run directly through the property we had worked so hard
to improve.

That, however, is another story.

Across 13th Street from the main buildings, the Pre-School
was relocating to the lower part of the old Multnomah Athletic
Club wooden building, the upper part of which was being torn
down. Parent work parties were called for, and Mary and I
joined many others in cleaning, painting, and laying tile on
the floors.

Look for the rest of the Reynolds’ story in the spring
edition of The OES Belltower!

Much esprit de corps was generated by those work parties.
A number of parents were able to donate materials, or ask
others to do so. Elizabeth Wright was the head of the Pre­
School at that time, and we built a children’s tree house in
her honor. Another needed item, a covered play area for
Lower School children, was created at this time.
A more threatening matter of this era of rejuvenation was the
need to meet the requirements of the fire marshal, who was
threatening to close the School. By this time Mary was a
member of the Board of Trustees, so we knew the full story
of the School’s financial distress, and how real the threat of
being closed actually was.

It was unthinkable that the School be closed, and the neces­
sary funds to prevent this from happening were raised. In fact,
a number of fundraising activities were launched by the Board
and a group of active and committed parents. One was an
annual hobby and antique show, which eventually evolved into
the Country Fair.

his Mustard Seed shares with
you a record of the School’s
health as we stand proudly,
ready to take bows in celebration of
our 125th Anniversary'. In these
pages, we bear witness to the ser­
vice and generosity of friends during
1993-94, squarely in the tradition
that is a hallmark of our years.

•i!

i

1993-94 was a year of extraordinary'
faith in and support for Oregon
Episcopal School. We achieved a
record-breaking OES Fund. We con­
cluded the best auction in the
School’s history’, in support of our
faculty and staff. We began securing
funds to make the visionary dreams
of the Master Plan come alive. Our
enrollment of just under 700 stu­
&amp; dents met our strategic goals for the
year. We have poured more atten­
tion into our physical plant. And we
have continued growing our endow­
ment and other reserves to provide
protection for the future.
I add my' admiration and thanks to
Board President Elisabeth Lyon’s
tributes to our superb volunteers,
with whom we have flourished.
And I particularly applaud our
faculty, who are, as Elisabeth
boasts, the heart of our School.
The quality of their lives at OES
and their dedication to children
exemplify' our 125-year tradition of
teaching and learning.

Prideaux ‘59, our celebration year is
filled with very special occasions.

Dear Friends,

ow that the 124th year of
Oregon Episcopal School has
ended, and we have begun
the commemorative 125th year, I
want to share with you the state of
our School and the work of some
individuals who have helped to
make it such a strong institution.
The Mustard Seed provides the
opportunity to not only report to
you but also to say thank you. The
successes of the last year are due to
ihe efforts and the generosity of
many people.

Financially OES is in excellent
health. In the past year all external
debt has been eliminated, the
endowment has increased and the
budget has been well managed.
Prudent planning has permitted
increases in the maintenance account
and monies for the purchase and
expanded use of computers.
Interest in attending OES is strong.
Our classes and our “wait pools” at
all grade levels are filled, and by tal­
ented young people. After thought­
ful discussion, the Board decided to
continue the enrollment at the cur­
rent level and not expand the num­
ber of classes or the class size. This
decision was made based on the
nature of our programs and the
desire to maintain their excellence.
During the past year, the Board
approved a new [Master Plan for the
OES campus. This outlines the physi­
cal requirements of our School,
which are needed to insure our
excellence into the 21st century.
Subsequently, the Buildings and
Grounds Committee, chaired by
Dale Stewart, retained architects
who prepared schematic designs for
a new Middle School and a substan­
tially renovated Upper School. These
plans are based on the programmatic
needs of each division and were

developed in conjunction with the
faculty. Implementation of the new
Master Plan is the largest undertak­
ing by OES, since our School moved
to the current campus in 1964!
The participation of volunteers over
the past year was exceptional. Anne
Thanhouser and the Volunteers’
Common Link organized many
hours of volunteer commitment in
all three divisions of the School.
Wendy Hamilton and the creative
Auction Committee raised a record­
setting $117,000! And we all will
long remember that evening and the
fun of being “Wild Things!” With the
talented leadership of Pat
Karamanos, the 1993-94 OES Fund
reached a new high and exceeded
$331,000! Sean Kuni ‘81 and the
Alumni Association planned numer­
ous events, which brought even
more alumni in touch with current
life of the School. OES now has a
school store, the inspiration and
work of parents led by Darlene
Kaempf. And thanks to the 125th
Anniversary Committee, co-chaired
by Sheryl Acheson and Meridel

To our faculty I want to express my
great appreciation. They are the
heart of our School. Many of the suc­
cesses of the past year are due to the
commitment, work and leadership of
both our faculty and our administra­
tion. I want to thank our Head, Peter
Stevens, both for his management of
ongoing operations and his vision
and planning for our School’s future.
His three able division heads: Anne
Cass, Charyl Cathey and Harvey
Zendt, in addition to the Director of
Development, Sue Nicol, and
Director of Admissions, Louisa
Zendt. have worked tirelessly.
My colleagues on the Board of
Trustees have been diligent and
thoughtful participants in the discus­
sion and conclusion of numerous
issues this past year. In particular,
I want to express my appreciation
to the Executive Committee. The
Right Rev. Robert L. Ladehoff,
Sean Gilronan, Chris Kitchel, Jack
Spring and Paul Schlesinger have
provided great wisdom. This past
year the Drinkward Award, which
acknowledges outstanding leader­
ship. was given to trustee Peter
Bechen. He has served the Board in
many capacities including Treasurer
and Chair of the OES Pacific Rim
Council.
And to you, the friends of Oregon
Episcopal School, I want to say a
very' special thank you. Our students
and we are fortunate for your con­
tinuing support and interest.

Sincerely,

Elisabeth L. Lyon
President, Board of Trustees

Alumni Directory was
printed (the first in 13
years!) three regional
alumni events were held in
San Francisco, Seattle and
Tucson, and many new
and existing activities were
enjoyed by alumni of all
ages. The strength of the
Alumni Association contin­
ues to grow with the ener­
gy and support of all the
Alumni Board members!

The Pacific Rim
Advisory Council
In 1992, the Pacific Rim
Advisory Council was con­
vened for the first time by
Headmaster Peter Stevens
in Tokyo, Japan. In 1993,
OES parents Mr. Chai and
Mrs. Ing Sophonpanich
graciously hosted the sec­
ond gathering in Bangkok,
Thailand.
Seoul Korea was the
site of the 1994 meeting
convened in May by OES
Trustee and Pacific Rim
Council Chair, Peter
Bechen, and generously
hosted by Dr. Jae Kyu and
Mrs. Sun Park. As President
of Kyungnam University in
Masan, Korea and the Far
Eastern Studies Institute in
Seoul, Dr. Park arranged
Council discussions in an
international scholarly
environment that was
delightfully stimulating.
The purpose of the
Council is to offer advice
on the long term goals of
the School and its role as a

E5

Pacific Rim institution.
This year, Peter Bechen
and Board President
Elisabeth Lyon presented
the OES Master Plan,
which details the siting of
new and renovated facili­
ties on the OES campus
into the 21st century.
Hamilton Gregg, former
Director of the OES board­
ing program, then dis­
cussed “a day in the life of
a boarding student.”
Boarding is of particu­
lar interest to the Council
because a number of their
own children are current
or recently-graduated OES
students, and have come
to OES from across the
USA and around the
world. With a growing
awareness of global citi­
zenship, the Council views
the importance of the
boarding component in
the implementation of the
School’s long range plans.

SUMMERBRIDGE PORTLAND
Summerbridge Portland was founded in the fall of 1992
as a collaborative effort between Oregon Episcopal
School and the Catlin Gabel School with the intention
of preparing high-potential middle school students for
success in rigorous college preparatory high school
programs. The program focuses specifically on students
who have had limited educational opportunities.
This year, classes began in June with a diverse
group of 70 middle school students from 13 Portland
public schools and 2 Catholic schools. A talented facul­
ty’ of 26 high school and college students served as
teachers and role models.
The academically stimulating summer sessions
emphasize reading, writing, math, critical thinking, and

AFFORD IT!

i

I

Each day our telephone
and mail bring us solicita­
tions for donations. The
volume of requests numbs
our senses. Our immediate
impulse is to hang up or
throw it away. Yer there
are causes or organizations
which tug at our con­
sciences, those we really
embrace and want to sup­
port. However, die con­
stant throb of unwanted
requests creates negative
&amp;
conditioning. We just say
“no!” or think “that’s
impossible!” without really
examining the possibilities.
In truth, there are many
methods of making chari­
table gifts, both large and
small. With a little coach­
ing on the menu of
options, the seemingly
impossible can be done.

I

Writing a check is only
one method of making a
charitable gift. While sim­
ple, it is not necessarily the
proper standard by which
affordability should be
measured if you really
want to make a larger gift.
The picture has to be more
complete. “Non-cash”

sold because of the
income tax consequences
or because of the reduc­
tion or loss of income it
produces. Charitable gifts
can unlock this dormant
investment and income
potential without adverse
consequences. In fact,
income and financial secu­
rity can be greatly
enhanced by these efforts
while creating a sizeable
benefit for a charitable
cause at the same time.
One of the devices com­
monly used to take advan­
tage of hidden financial
capacity is the Charitable
Remainder Trust. It is
based on a veiy simple
premise: you transfer
property to a trust, retain­
ing an income interest for
a specific term, and your
charity receives the bal­
ance of assets when the
term ends. The tax laws
grant a very favorable sta­
tus to these arrangements,
and many first reactions
are “it’s too good to be
true." On the contrary,
these arrangements have
been around for a long
time. They have long ago
passed out of the “gim­
mick” category and into
the main stream of estate
and financial planning.

assets such as securities,
real estate, works of art,
etc. must be included as
well as income sources
and needs. With these
facts available, then your
real financial capacity can
be measured and the likely
sources for making a gift
can be identified.

Most larger charitable gifts
from individuals are not
made in cash. The tax
costs and resource reduc­
tion may be simply too
high to make it worth­
while. Instead, many peo­
ple resort to various other
devices which make use of
their “hidden" financial
capacity. This capacity is
found in their appreciated
stock or real estate which
they believe should not be

The Charitable Remainder
Trust begins just like all

56

other charitable contribu­
tions. You first make a
transfer of assets. In this
case, the transfer is to a
trust. The trust recites all
of the terms and condi­
tions of the arrangement. Il
names the beneficiaries
and the trustees and
defines the relationships of
the parties. Many of these
terms are required by the
tax laws in order to sub­
stantiate the charitable
nature of the trust, and
your entitlement to the
charitable deduction.

The amount of the deduc­
tion depends on the num­
ber of variables you estab­
lish in the trust when the
transfer is made. The initial
variable is the income
interest you retain. You
must first decide how
much income you want
and how often it is to be
paid. The income rate is
expressed as an annual
percentage of the value of
the trust assets, i.e. 5%, 9%,
etc. Income rates you
received from the assets
prior to transfer are irrele­
vant. You can set the new
annual rate arbitrarily
based on your expected
needs. The lowest allow­
able rate is 5%, but there is
no maximum rate. You can
receive the income month-

&amp;

Tl

�l

ly, quarterly, semiquarterly
or annually. Generally, the
charitable reduction goes
down as the retained
income rate and payment
frequency go up.

s

When the income rate
and payment frequency
are established, you must
then decide who will
receive this income. The
income payments can be
retained for either a fixed
number of years or for
one or more lifetimes.
For instance, you may
decide to retain the
income payments for a
fixed period of 20 years.
You may then designate
yourself and several suc­
cessive, alternate beneficia­
ries to receive it during
that term, depending on
who is alive at any given
time. Another option is to
retain the income pay­
ments for your entire life­
time. You can also extend
the term to include the
lifetime of your spouse or
of a child or children.
Again, the charitable
deduction decreases as the
length of the retained
income term increases
(either expressed as a
fixed number of years or
through the duration of
one or more lifetimes).

rr d\' m n T&gt; 9 1 v 1

The last significant variable
is the form in which the
income payments are
determined. You may elect
to fix the amount you
receive when the initial
transfer is made. The same
payment amount will then
be paid to you throughout
the term of the trust. This
is an “annuity” trust. The
income payment is not
affected by subsequent
changes in the value of the
trust fund. The second for­
mat is a variable payment
amount. The same income
percentage rate is used
throughout the term, but
the assets of the trust are
re-valued at the beginning
of each year and the rate
applied to the new value.
Thus the payment amount
will fluctuate with the mar­
ket and value of the trust
assets. This is a “uni-trust.”
Generally, the deduction is
higher for an annuity trust
than a uni-trust.

S

charitable deduction. They
are not necessarily the
source of the income inter­
est you retain. Most often,
the assets you transfer to
the trust are sold. The pro­
ceeds are then reinvested
more appropriately to pro­
duce the income payments
to you. The sale may cre­
ate a gain, but there is not
tax because the law attrib­
utes the gain to the “taxexempt” charitable benefi­
ciary, not to you. Thus a
principal motivation for
creating a Charitable
Remainder Trust is to com­
pletely escape the tax
cost of changing your
investments. The trust is
the key to a tax-free con­
version of low or no
income assets into higher
income assets or of a sin­
gle asset into a diversified
portfolio of assets.

The second key to release
dormant investment and
income potential is the
charitable deduction itself.
The gain on the sale of the
assets you transfer to the
trust is not taxable, but the
income interest you retain
is taxable as you receive it
over the term of the trust.
The charitable deduction is
used to offset the tax con­
sequences of these income
payments. It can also offset

When these variables are
established, the charitable
deduction can be calculat­
ed. This deduction is one
of the twin keys the
Charitable Remainder Trust
utilizes to release dormant
investment and income
potential. The assets you
transfer to the trust are
only used to measure the

other income sources you
have, too, if the deduction
is large enough. The chari­
table deduction thus cre­
ates tax-free income where
none existed before.

The amount of the deduc­
tion is calculated using
actuarial tables furnished
by the IRS. As noted
above, the deduction
amount is directly affected
by the characteristics you
choose for the retained
income interest.
Sometimes, the deduction
amount is the principal
focus in selecting these
variables, whereas other
situations attribute less sig­
nificance to the deduction
and concentrate on maxi­
mizing personal income
security. In either case, the
amount of charitable
deduction which may be
used to offset your taxable
income is limited to the
percentage of your “adjust­
ed gross income.” Most
commonly, this limit is
20% of adjusted gross
income. It is not unusual
for the total deduction to
exceed this limit. In that
case, the tax law allows
you to “carry forward” the
excess deduction and
apply it against your tax-

able income in the next
five years. For example, if
your total charitable
deduction is $10,000 and
20% of your adjusted gross
income is $4,000, then you
can only use S4,000 of the
deduction this year, but
the remaining S6,000 of
the deduction is still avail­
able for use in the next
succeeding five years to
offset taxable income with­
in the 20% limitation.
The financial aspects of
the Charitable Remainder
Trust reflect your choices
in the variables affecting
the income interest you
retain. Once fixed, these
issues are rarely confront­
ed again. On the other
y hand, the Charitable
Remainder Trust is not
something you sign and
forget. It is, after all, still
a trust. It must have a
trustee to supervise and
execute its affairs. There
are many applicable rules
and regulations governing
the trust administration,
but substantial flexibility
also exists. Many people
turn to their professional
advisors to act as trustees,
such as banks, accountants
and attorneys. Some chari­
table organizations will
even act as trustees of
trusts for which they are

I

at least partially the even­
tual beneficiary. Com­
munity foundations (i.e.,
die Oregon Community
Foundation) make it their
business to act as trustees
and fund managers for
these trusts. Within certain
special limitations in place,
you can act as your own
trustee, too.

created with specific bene­
ficiaries in mind, but cir­
cumstances change. A
Charitable Remainder Trust
is by its very nature a long
term plan. In response to
inevitable change, the tax
laws permit you to retain
the right to change the
charitable beneficiary if
you choose. So long as
all the beneficiaries at all
times are qualified charita­
ble institutions, you can
make as many changes as
you wish. Only the list in
effect at the conclusion of
the trust term determines
which charities actually
receive the remaining
trust assets.

The duties of the trustee
are not insignificant. They
include the proper invest­
ment of the funds and the
payment of the income
interest to you. Annual tax
returns and information
reports must be prepared
and filed. The fees and
costs of the trustee or
financial management ser­
vices may be an issue to
some people, and each of
the alternatives will pre­
sent different services and
efficiencies. The final
choice is important since
the long term performance
of the trust directly affects
the ultimate benefit
received by the charity.
Prudence and experience
are key elements in the
selection criteria.

The income interest char­
acteristics and manage­
ment choices cover quite
a broad spectrum of
variables. Only one
attribute is ironclad from
the inception of the trust.
A Charitable Remainder
Trust is irrevocable. This
means the arrangement is
permanent until its course
is fully completed. The
characteristics of the
income interest cannot be
changed. The distribution
of the balance of the assets
to charities at the conclu­
sion of the trust term can­
not be changed. Areas of
flexibility do exist, but sec­
ond thoughts after the trust
is in place cannot alter the

The last variable is proba­
bly the one that truly pro­
vides the impetus for the
whole arrangement. That
is the identity of the chari­
table beneficiary or benefi­
ciaries. Many trusts are

58

trust or the ultimate fulfill­
ment of its purpose.

Many details are involved
in the decision to pursue a
larger charitable gift. The
first rule is the most obvi­
ous, but also the most dif­
ficult: lake off the blinders.
They only confine your
vision of the available
resources for a gift. The
second rule is equally
compelling: consult com­
petent professionals. They
are the only ones who can
give you a complete expla­
nation of all the options
open to you and the many
variables affecting each
one. No description of
planned charitable giving
alternatives is complete
without a thorough review
of a Charitable Remainder
Trust. It can provide the
means to make a substan­
tial charitable gift. In fact,
it can actually increase
your income and strength­
en your portfolio by diver­
sifying your investments.
Happily, the tax laws
promote rather than dis­
courage these positive
results, and the investment
transition is tax-free. With
these kinds of benefits
potentially available, the
issue is not whether to
do it, rather how you can
afford not to do it!

The New
Middle School:
Tow All We
1 V Need Are
the Walls!

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

For 125 years, thousands of
individuals have been touched
by their educational experiences
at St. Helens Hall, Bishop
Dagwell Hall, and Oregon
Episcopal School. Not only stu­
dents, but parents, teachers,
staff, alumni, grandparents, and
friends have grown and been
nurtured within the School’s
inclusive community.
Mr. Jong-Hyon Chey, chair­
man of the Sunkyong Group,
one of the five largest conglom­
erates in Korea, recently stated
in reference to the future direc­
tion of his own business: “We
are not awaiting the 21st centu­
ry, we intend to shape it.” How
perfectly applicable this state­
ment is to the implementation
process of the OES Long Range
Plan for the 21st Century, which

is appropriately called OES/21.
The OES Statement of
Purpose articulates both the
School that we are and the
School we are becoming, and
OES/21 details the essence of
what we seek to accomplish to
shape our institution for the
21st century. Like Mr. Chey,
the OES Board of Trustees
realizes the prudency of its
charge for long-range planning
and articulated goals.
Wise and careful trustee
management during the past
decade has allowed the School
to achieve financial solidity with
no external debt, a well-man­
aged plant with provisions for
deferred maintenance, and an
enrollment that is both the
largest in the School's history
(with plentiful wait pools in
each division) and the earlierthan-expected realization of our
student population goal outlined
in OES/21.
Our moment is al hand. We
have implemented many of the
components of the Long Range
Plan, ranging from a growing
endowment for faculty profes­
sional growth and development
to technology components that
60

include laptop computers for
each third, fourth, and fifth
grader, and laptop PC’s for all
sixth graders beginning in the
fall of 1995.
We are now ready to launch
the most energetic campus facil­
ities upgrade ever seen in the
125-year-history of the School.
The Trustees and Middle School
faculty have worked together
with the OES Design Review
Committee over the past year to
develop a facility that meets the
programmatic requirements of
the Middle School.
The proposed new Middle
School building will secure an
academically excellent environ­
ment for all our current students
as well as the thousands of stu­
dents who follow them into the
21st century. We have a superb
Middle School program that is a
model of what a truly excellent
Middle School should be, and it
is racing towards the 21st centu­
ry! All that is missing is the
building that will fulfill the
space and programmatic needs
of the children who learn within
its walls. We need you to help
us build it!

an exciting time. I hope you have
the opportunity to attend some of
the events scheduled throughout
the year. Many volunteers and
dedicated staff have worked long
hours developing them.

Summer is always a busy time at
the School and this past summer
was no exception.
The Alumni Association welcomed
its newest members at the Senior
Reception held on June 9. The
Class of 1994 added 47 members
to our ranks, which total approxi­
mately 1,800. At the reception I
was pleased to introduce Jo-Anne
Landry as the 1994 Class Agent.
Jo-Anne, who is studying in
England this fall, will act as
liason between the School and
her classmates.

I

Class reunions are held each June
and this year we celebrated the
classes ending in “4” and “9”.

■

I was touched by the stories about
World War II, in particular D-Day,
which occurred close to their grad­
uation. One alumna remembers
how calmly Bishop Dagwell
announced the invasion and how
he allayed their fears. Another
classmate told of her fiancee who
lost his life landing off Holland that
same summer.

Most recollections, however, were
met with laughter and smiles. I
hope in another 30 years my 50th
class reunion is just as memorable.

My graduating class of 1974 cele­
brated its 20th reunion this past
summer. Eighteen out of 36 class­
mates were able to attend at least
one event. Brent Erensel and Max
Miller Jr. deserve much thanks for
organizing the gathering.
Our reunion was that much more
joyful with the recent news that our
classmates, Tanja Vaselijevic
Horvat, was granted entry to the
United States. Tanja, a citizen of
Saravejo, had been living in
Germany with her daughter Ivana
since escaping the war that has
destroyed her homeland. OES
offered Tanja, who is a trained
doctor, the position of laboratory
assistant in the science depart­
ment. Without a job, Tanja and
Ivana would not have been able to
enter the United States.

The OES Board of Directors,
Headmaster Peter W. Stevens,
the Development Office, the
Rosenlund family, Max Miller Jr.,
Autumn Alexander-Skeen, John
Wysham, Jenny Holden and others
are to be thanked for their efforts
concerning Tanja. Their concern,
humanitarianism and actions
exemplify the spirit of OES.

This fall and winter also promise
to be busy. Many activities are
scheduled to celebrate the 125th.
An example is the Alumni Lecture
Series, which runs throughout
the school year in conjunction with
the programs of the OES Parent
Education Committee. Guest
speakers from our alumni ranks
are scheduled to speak on a
variety of topics.

The Alumni Assocation extends
a special invitation to all alumni,
parents and friends of OES to
attend the 1994 Founders Day
Anniversary Gala. This year we
honor Betsy Johnson, Class of
1969, with the Distinguished
Alumni Award named in honor of
the founder of St. Helens Hall in
1869, Bishop Benjamin Wistar
Morris. The award will be present­
ed during the Founders’ Day Gala.
Chet Orloff, Executive Director of
the Oregon Historical Society will
be our guest speaker and Gerry
Frank will be our Master of
Ceremonies. It promises to be
an entertaining evening.
Another anniversary event will be
the appearance of actress and
UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador
Liv Ullmann, on December 8.
Ms. Ullmann will speak on “Making
the World A Better Place for Our
Children,” a very appropriate topic
for the OES community.
I am excited about this anniversary
and I hope you are too! As always,
your ideas and comments about
how the Alumni Association can
best serve the alumni community
are welcome.

A A banner-toting airplane was just one of the many surprises
during the Opening Day festivities.

Greeted by perfect weather, over 700 students returned to campus
with their parents on September 7, 1994, to kick off the 125th Anniversary
of Oregon Episcopal School. The School’s long history in Portland was
honored on this occasion with the presence of SHH, BDH and OES
alumni and special guests, including the Royal Rosarians, who planted
the OES 125th Anniversary rose in honor of the occasion.
Over 1,000 brass bells were rung in succession by students, parents,
alumni, faculty and staff, and a banner-toting airplane proclaimed the
anniversary celebration. The 125th Anniversary Song was sung by all,
and the fifth grade carried out their traditional bell ringing. This year,
there were 125 rings of the bell that has followed the School since its
founding in 1869. A reception for alumni and special guests followed
in the 125th Commemorative Rose Garden, where the new School rose
has been planted.
In keeping with the momentous nature of this special year, this fall
edition of The OES Belltower is devoted to the memories of our alumni.
Reflected in the photos, quoted anecdotes, and excerpts from School
publications is the spirit of Oregon Episcopal School which has endured
throughout the past 125 years.

�Change and Continuity:
Cynthia Doran,
Counseling OES
Students Since 1965
A s the faculty member who
XAcurrently holds the longest
tenure at Oregon Episcopal
School, Cynthia Doran gamely
enters her twenty-seventh year of
teaching and counseling during
this 125th anniversary year.
“I don’t mind being a historic
relic!” she jokes.
Cynthia joined the staff of the
School in 1965, when it was still
St. Helens Hall for girls. Initially
a history, English, and religion
teacher for sophomores and
juniors, Cynthia filled her current
post of college counselor in 1977,
and has turned that program into
a curriculum staple for OES
juniors and seniors.
The college counseling pro­
gram includes a handbook for
OES students and their parents,
which Cynthia wrote, and period­
ic informational meetings, includ­
ing visits from college admissions
officers. Cynthia herself routinely
visits colleges and attends
National Association of College
Admission Counselors and
College Board meetings. During
Winterim, she holds a one week

AUTUMN

introductory program for juniors,
called College Decisions, and
throughout the academic year
there is intensive, one-on-one
advising for Seniors before, dur­
ing and after the college applica­
tion process.
In an interview with The OES
Belltower in its Autumn, 1992
issue, Cynthia reflected on the
ways in which the School had
changed—and remained the
same—over the past 25 years
since she joined the staff:

OES has become a much
more informal place. When
Mrs. Fariss walked through
the Great Hall 25 years ago,
everyone stood up...Uniform
regulations were rigid. And 25
years ago, no one would have
dreamed of calling me Cynthia.
Some of the best things have
remained constant. This School
has always had a sense of com­
munity—almost like a family.
OES also has a love of—almost
celebrates—the individual...
And, I guess finally, we have
a respect for learning. It’s one
of our keystones. We are able
to inculcate a love of learning.
Today, Cynthia emphasizes
that, like OES, her job as college
counselor has evolved.

▲ Cynthia Doran counsels an
earnest member of the senior
class.
“The emphasis at OES has
always been on academic suc­
cess, and hand-in-hand with that
emphasis is the desire for our stu­
dents to go to what is thought of
as a ‘great college’,” Cynthia says.
“But I also think that students
today understand more than ever
that they need to find a good
match. They’re looking for a col­
lege experience that is right for
them as individuals.”

Sister Agatha Louise, the
principal, was my favorite teacher.
She was so firm, but so kind. The
strict regimentation was only a
part of the total experience, but
helped me realize the importance
of self-discipline. The Sisters
were wonderful!

holds life’s stories both joyful and
painful. We belong in a place that
remembers those who gave it life.
OES is such a place.
In the seven years I have been
a part of OES I have never seen
this school—this community—
look to the future without first
taking courage and wisdom
from its past. Whether on the
playing field, in the classroom,
in a faculty or board meeting or
in the dorm, there is the constant
question that underlies every
decision, and the life of this com­
munity: "Does what we are doing
today honor those who came
before us?”
I am pleased to say that it
does. I have never heard anyone
say “OES used to be such a
good school." Sure, the School
has changed—it’s designed to.
Life is supposed to go on. But
through the years and all the
changes, students, parents,
alumni, faculty and staff have
continued a tradition of excel­
lence that goes back 125 years.
Today we honor 19 people
who have lived that tradition
and passed it on to us. I teach

in the Middle School and...Mary
Reynolds is among those we
remember today. Her grand­
daughter, Margaret Reynolds,
just received the Faculty Award
for outstanding scholarship
and positive contributions to
the OES community.
The tradition goes on. The
lights of our past show the way
for our future.

�Still the Everglade
&gt; &lt; any S*' Helens Hall and
jLVAjunior College alumnae
have fond memories of the
leisurely weekends they spent
at Everglade, a house on Lake
Oswego purchased in 1930 to
be used for recreation, includ­
ing swimming, canoeing,
motor boating and tennis.
Appropriately, the Everglade
is now owned by an alumna of
St. Helens Hall, Shirley Fulton
Coan ‘32, who moved there
with her husband and three
children in the 1960s. The
house remains much the same
today as it was in the ‘30’s.
In 1950, The Rev. Lansing
Kempton purchased Everglade
from the Sisters who directed
St. Helens Hall, bur made only
minor changes to rhe house.
Shirley and her husband Ralph
have remodeled the house
over the years since they
bought it, but only under the
original roofline.

from St. Helens Hall and the
Junior College is now the mas­
ter bedroom, and the many

the Sisters, which later served
as bedrooms for the Coan’s
children. The Coan’s family
room now lies where St.

used to gather for chapel ser­
vices on Sunday mornings.
Many of the same huge fir
trees still surround Everglade,
although a grove of about
twenty which stood by the lake
were cut down by Father
Kempton, presumably because
they blocked the view.
Shirley, who was a school
teacher for many years in West
Linn and Lake Oswego, and
remains a flourishing watercol­
or artist, has many memories of
her times at Everglade as a stu­
dent at St. Helens Hall.
“I remember the Sisters used
to pull their habits up and tie
them behind their backs, to go
out in the canoes and motor
boat,” she laughs. “We had a
lot of fun here!”

Participation,
Top Facilities and Fun:
A Winning
Combination
■ n the past twenty years since
I Athletics Director Kris Van

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

Hatcher ‘70 first joined the staff
at Oregon Episcopal School, its
sports program has changed a
great deal.
“We’ve always had strong
teams,” Kris emphasizes, “but in
the past ten years the sports pro­
gram has really gotten stronger."
Over the past five years, more
than 80 OES athletes have
received individual recognition
including All-League and All­
State honors. The girls soccer
team won the State Champion­
ship in 1993, and the boys track
team was the District Champion
in 1994. OES fencers have been
the State Champions every year
since 1988, and both the girls’
and boys’ tennis teams have won
the State Championship for the
past two years, with the girls’
team taking the singles champi­
onship and the boys’ winning the
doubles championship for the
last two years.
The success, Kris says, can be
partly attributed to a variety of

facility changes at the School.
The new Yanagitani track, donat­
ed by OES parents Kazunori and
Tei Yanagitani in 1988, the addi­
tion of SPARC during the same
year, and the improvements to
the School’s three outdoor soc­
cer fields have given the sports
program an extra edge, in both
practice and competition.

Since Kris became the head of
the program 10 years ago, he has
also made a real effort to create a
philosophy among his staff which
reflects the belief that success in
athletics is only part of the equa­
tion. Participation and fun, he
says, are just as important. He
also emphasizes that a great deal
of the success of the OES athlet­
ic program can be attributed to a
staff that follows through on this

16

philosophy and brings it out in the
students who participate.
The “no cut policy” means
that as long as students have the
desire to play, they can be mem­
bers of a team and will play on a
regular basis, regardless of their
level of achievement. OES has
had 80% participation over the
past ten years, despite the chal­
lenge of balancing schoolwork
and sports.
“It’s got to be difficult," Kris
acknowledges, “But I really
believe that it makes the kids
more organized overall, and gives
them more energy.”
Another tribute to the success
of the athletic program at OES
came when four of its coaches—
Kris, Coleen Conkey, Mike
Devenney and Rich Sherwood—
were named Coach of the
Year on either the District or
State Level during the 1993-’94
school year.
“The bottom line is that OES
is blessed with talented kids
who are also really intelligent,”
Kris says. “Kids can get an
excellent education at OES,
as well as a strong athletic
program, where they’ll play
more and get more individual
attention than at other schools."

Eight years have passed since that terrible month of May and I am forgetting things I thought at that time
would be impossible to ever forget. That period was, without question, one of the most significant events in
my life, and, I know, for many of you as well...
The students we remember today were a lot like you in their interests, their passions, their highs and lows,
their constant struggle to find out who they were...My father died that same year and I spoke at his funeral
about those lost on Mt. Hood and those struggling to cope with survival. I said that I have come to realize
that life was like a book and that the number of pages one had was not as important as the quality of each
page. I made a promise to try and fill each page of my book with something of quality...
In closing I would like to mention two people who survived the tragic accident...Brinton Clark sends word
through her parents that she is using her drawing skills to illustrate health posters for the inhabitants of a tiny
village in Ghana where she works trying to improve the quality of life for people so desperate for care and
hope...Giles [Thompson] dropped into the office the other day with his fiancee Marie Lorraine and their 5
month old son Lewis. As we sat talking, catching up on all the years, I looked at Lewis and I thought to
myself that this is what this special day is all about. It is about remembering the past for the promises made,
for the lessons learned, and it is for looking to the future.

�I remember the nuns would
come down the halls ringing a bell
very loudly to wake us up in the
morning. If we didn’t immediately
throw back the covers on our
beds, we got what was called an
order mark. If we left out a pair of
slippers, we got an order mark for
each slipper—not one for the pair!
One night after we got in bed I
peered over the partition in the
bedroom [the beds were in cubi­
cles, with only a partial wall parti­
tion] to giggle and talk with my
dormmates. Sister came in with a
flashlight and caught me in the act.
For my misbehavior I received a
conduct mark, and I believe it took
10 order marks to make a conduct
mark. Although I don’t remember
my punishment, if it was cleaning
classrooms I must have been busy!

each pupil should bring a dressing
gown, two Balmoral skirts, (heavy

Scadding Hall. Mrs. Farris talked to
us and I noticed that she was
wearing black. I looked around
and saw that Mrs. Christensen,
the librarian, was also in a black
dress. Then they sent us up to
Chapel, and as I walked in I saw
Mrs. Paige, our math teacher, in
black. I always thought that was
so strange—all of them got up

that several boys were out in the

four dorm masters rushed into the

catch the criminals. We could hear
them always just ahead, but of

of the 125th anniversary of Oregon
Episcopal School Throughout the past cen­
tury and a quarter, the loyally of the
School's former students, faculty, staff, par­
ents and extendedfamilies has remained
true, as a tribute to the strength of its acade­
mics and to the spirit within its walls.

When my youngest daughter, Kathy, was graduated from
the OES Upper School in 1971, my wife Mary and I calculated
that our four children had been involved in over 50 years of
education at St. Helens Hall, Bishop Dagwell Hall and Oregon
Episcopal School! How did this happen, and what brought
about such loyalty?

One of thefinest examples of this allegience
has been displayed over the past five decades
by the Reynoldsfamily. Allfour children of
Carl and Mary Reynolds were enrolled in and
graduatedfrom the School during the ‘50s,
‘60s and ‘70s. Carl Reynolds and his father
were both faculty members at St. Helens Hall

I will have to start out by saying that
it was my wife Mary who got me
involved. It was she who was search­
ing for a pre-school for our second
oldest daughter, Becky, and discov­
ered the St. Helens Hall pre-school on
the old downtown campus at 13th and
Hall Street. At this time our oldest
daughter, Lydia, was attending a pub­
lic school on the East side of Portland,
and Mary had joined their PTA. Mary
became aware that she was having
problems in her class. We were about
to move to the West side of town, and
decided to try our daughter out in the
4th grade at St. Helens Hall.

self as an English teacher, and then had been appointed the
head of St. Helens Hall Junior College for 15 years. After the
Junior College was closed in 1947 (which she deeply regretted),
there was a period of uncertain leadership, until Mrs. Fariss was
brought back to take charge of St. Helens Hall in 1954.

There, her teacher noticed at once that Lydia seemed to have
trouble seeing. She would come to the front of the room to
sharpen a pencil, in order to see what was on the blackboard.
The teacher suggested that we have her eyes examined, and
we were shocked to find that she couldn’t read the big E on
the eye chart!

She had the challenging task of maintaining the School’s high
academic standards, small classes, and high moral and spiri­
tual reputation with a most inadequate budget. Mrs. Fariss, by
this time, had excellent connections with the academic world,
and a talent for finding dedicated and highly qualified teachers
who were willing or able to teach for embarrassingly low
salaries. This was possible, of course, because the teaching
conditions were so favorable, but it was not a healthy situa­
tion, and one of which Mrs. Fariss was acutely aware.

With proper glasses, the whole world became clearer for
Lydia. The value of the small classes, personal attention and
very caring teachers was dramatically evident to us. We soon
found that this was characteristic of the School. Mary quickly
became an active parent, attending meetings, joining work
parties and learning about the School.

One of the things we learned early on was that the School was
in a very precarious financial condition. When Mary and I
became involved in 1953, Gertrude Fariss had been asked to
take over as the head of the School. She had taught there her-

Enrollment was always a critical problem. The boarding
department was financially the strongest branch of the School.
St. Helens Hall had always been a boarding
school, one of the few still available in the
Pacific Northwest. Parents with girls from
remote locations all over the West sought it out.
The Upper School was hard put to find space
for those wanting to enroll. There was more
room for day students, however, and the prob­
lem was that of making sure that the School
only admitted students who were qualified.

This Mrs. Fariss did with rigorous protection of
the School’s academic standards. She was very
good at suggesting positive alternatives to par­
ents whose children did not meet the School’s
requirements. As Mary and I became more
familiar with the operation of the School, we
realized it was worth all of the support we could
give it.
The rising financial pressure had resulted in
many neglected aspects of the physical plant.
The front entrance area of the School had
become overgrown and unsightly. The rose gar­
den had disappeared amid tall grass, bushes
and overgrown trees.

Another crisis that came up was of a different nature. Just as
the School was about to begin a new academic year, Miss
McKirdie, the Upper School’s acclaimed history teacher,
became seriously ill and had to take the entire year off. Mrs.
Fariss was in a real dilemma about how to replace her, and the
upshot was that my father and I undertook to teach her class­
es. I was at that time teaching an introductory course in the
history of Western Art and Architecture at Portland State
College, and it was not hard for me to take over the Ancient
and Medieval history course. My father, as an experienced lec­
turer in sociology, took over the modern European History
course. We simply had to keep ahead of the students’ assign­
ments, and managed to do so!

My father, a pro­
fessor of sociology
at Stanford
University, had
recently retired
and returned to
Portland where
he had grown up.
He and I undertook
to clean up the
School’s front

area and had
George Otten, a
landscape architect working on our own property, do some
planting around the entrance leading up from the street to the
front entrance door. That fall, the traditional Old Girl-New Girl
Tea was held in the greatly improved front yard of the School.

All of these experiences gave Mary and me an intimate
knowledge of the School—its history, traditions, finances
and workings. Above all, it gave us a great respect for Mrs.
Fariss and her staff and the high quality of the teachers she
had assembled. There is a spirit about a school of this kind
that makes one feel that there are few things more worthwhile
that one can support. That is why we were ready to face a
new and more grave threat to the future of the School in
1964, when we learned that a freeway was being planned
to run directly through the property we had worked so hard
to improve.

That, however, is another story.

Across 13th Street from the main buildings, the Pre-School
was relocating to the lower part of the old Multnomah Athletic
Club wooden building, the upper part of which was being torn
down. Parent work parties were called for, and Mary and I
joined many others in cleaning, painting, and laying tile on
the floors.

Look for the rest of the Reynolds’ story in the spring
edition of The OES Belltower!

Much esprit de corps was generated by those work parties.
A number of parents were able to donate materials, or ask
others to do so. Elizabeth Wright was the head of the Pre­
School at that time, and we built a children’s tree house in
her honor. Another needed item, a covered play area for
Lower School children, was created at this time.
A more threatening matter of this era of rejuvenation was the
need to meet the requirements of the fire marshal, who was
threatening to close the School. By this time Mary was a
member of the Board of Trustees, so we knew the full story
of the School’s financial distress, and how real the threat of
being closed actually was.

It was unthinkable that the School be closed, and the neces­
sary funds to prevent this from happening were raised. In fact,
a number of fundraising activities were launched by the Board
and a group of active and committed parents. One was an
annual hobby and antique show, which eventually evolved into
the Country Fair.

1993-94 was a year of extraordinary'
faith in and support for Oregon
Episcopal School. We achieved a
record-breaking OES Fund. We con­
cluded the best auction in the
School’s history’, in support of our
faculty and staff. We began securing
funds to make the visionary dreams
of the Master Plan come alive. Our
enrollment of just under 700 stu­
&amp; dents met our strategic goals for the
year. We have poured more atten­
tion into our physical plant. And we
have continued growing our endow­
ment and other reserves to provide
protection for the future.
I add my' admiration and thanks to
Board President Elisabeth Lyon’s
tributes to our superb volunteers,
with whom we have flourished.
And I particularly applaud our
faculty, who are, as Elisabeth
boasts, the heart of our School.
The quality of their lives at OES

Dear Friends,

ow that the 124th year of
Oregon Episcopal School has
ended, and we have begun
the commemorative 125th year, I
want to share with you the state of
our School and the work of some
individuals who have helped to
make it such a strong institution.
The Mustard Seed provides the
opportunity to not only report to
you but also to say thank you. The
successes of the last year are due to
ihe efforts and the generosity of
many people.

Financially OES is in excellent
health. In the past year all external
debt has been eliminated, the
endowment has increased and the
budget has been well managed.
Prudent planning has permitted
increases in the maintenance account
and monies for the purchase and
expanded use of computers.
Interest in attending OES is strong.
Our classes and our “wait pools” at
all grade levels are filled, and by tal­
ented young people. After thought­
ful discussion, the Board decided to
continue the enrollment at the cur­
rent level and not expand the num­
ber of classes or the class size. This
decision was made based on the
nature of our programs and the
desire to maintain their excellence.
During the past year, the Board
approved a new [Master Plan for the
OES campus. This outlines the physi­
cal requirements of our School,
which are needed to insure our
excellence into the 21st century.
Subsequently, the Buildings and
Grounds Committee, chaired by
Dale Stewart, retained architects
who prepared schematic designs for
a new Middle School and a substan­
tially renovated Upper School. These
plans are based on the programmatic
needs of each division and were

developed in conjunction with the
faculty. Implementation of the new
Master Plan is the largest undertak­
ing by OES, since our School moved
to the current campus in 1964!
The participation of volunteers over
the past year was exceptional. Anne
Thanhouser and the Volunteers’
Common Link organized many
hours of volunteer commitment in
all three divisions of the School.
Wendy Hamilton and the creative
Auction Committee raised a record­
setting $117,000! And we all will
long remember that evening and the
fun of being “Wild Things!” With the
talented leadership of Pat
Karamanos, the 1993-94 OES Fund
reached a new high and exceeded
$331,000! Sean Kuni ‘81 and the
Alumni Association planned numer­
ous events, which brought even
more alumni in touch with current
life of the School. OES now has a
school store, the inspiration and
work of parents led by Darlene
Kaempf. And thanks to the 125th

To our faculty I want to express my
great appreciation. They are the
heart of our School. Many of the suc­
cesses of the past year are due to the
commitment, work and leadership of
both our faculty and our administra­
tion. I want to thank our Head, Peter
Stevens, both for his management of
ongoing operations and his vision
and planning for our School’s future.
His three able division heads: Anne
Cass, Charyl Cathey and Harvey
Zendt, in addition to the Director of
Development, Sue Nicol, and
Director of Admissions, Louisa
Zendt. have worked tirelessly.
My colleagues on the Board of
Trustees have been diligent and
thoughtful participants in the discus­
sion and conclusion of numerous
issues this past year. In particular,
I want to express my appreciation
to the Executive Committee. The
Right Rev. Robert L. Ladehoff,
Sean Gilronan, Chris Kitchel, Jack
Spring and Paul Schlesinger have
provided great wisdom. This past
year the Drinkward Award, which
acknowledges outstanding leader­
ship. was given to trustee Peter
Bechen. He has served the Board in
many capacities including Treasurer
and Chair of the OES Pacific Rim
Council.
And to you, the friends of Oregon
Episcopal School, I want to say a
very' special thank you. Our students
and we are fortunate for your con­
tinuing support and interest.

Sincerely,

Elisabeth L. Lyon

The Pacific Rim
Advisory Council
In 1992, the Pacific Rim
Advisory Council was con­
vened for the first time by
Headmaster Peter Stevens
in Tokyo, Japan. In 1993,
OES parents Mr. Chai and
Mrs. Ing Sophonpanich
graciously hosted the sec­
ond gathering in Bangkok,
Thailand.
Seoul Korea was the
site of the 1994 meeting
convened in May by OES
Trustee and Pacific Rim
Council Chair, Peter
Bechen, and generously
hosted by Dr. Jae Kyu and
Mrs. Sun Park. As President
of Kyungnam University in
Masan, Korea and the Far
Eastern Studies Institute in
Seoul, Dr. Park arranged
Council discussions in an
international scholarly
environment that was
delightfully stimulating.
The purpose of the
Council is to offer advice
on the long term goals of
the School and its role as a

E5

Pacific Rim institution.
This year, Peter Bechen
and Board President
Elisabeth Lyon presented
the OES Master Plan,
which details the siting of
new and renovated facili­
ties on the OES campus
into the 21st century.
Hamilton Gregg, former
Director of the OES board­
ing program, then dis­
cussed “a day in the life of
a boarding student.”
Boarding is of particu­
lar interest to the Council
because a number of their
own children are current
or recently-graduated OES
students, and have come
to OES from across the
USA and around the
world. With a growing
awareness of global citi­
zenship, the Council views
the importance of the
boarding component in
the implementation of the
School’s long range plans.
Upon his return to
Portland. Peter Bechen

SUMMERBRIDGE PORTLAND
Summerbridge Portland was founded in the fall of 1992
as a collaborative effort between Oregon Episcopal
School and the Catlin Gabel School with the intention
of preparing high-potential middle school students for
success in rigorous college preparatory high school
programs. The program focuses specifically on students
who have had limited educational opportunities.
This year, classes began in June with a diverse
group of 70 middle school students from 13 Portland
public schools and 2 Catholic schools. A talented facul­
ty’ of 26 high school and college students served as
teachers and role models.
The academically stimulating summer sessions
emphasize reading, writing, math, critical thinking, and

study skills. The program also stresses leadership,
Summerbridge and OES
heightened self-esteem, and creativity. The summer ses­ faculty member.
sions are complimented by school-year tutoring, coun­

In addition to preparing middle school stu­
dents for success in high school. Summerbridge
also seives as a training ground for a new genera­
tion of teachers. For our young faculty members,
Summerbridge is a total immersion into the field
of education. Summerbridge Portland is modeled
after the original Summerbridge program in San
Francisco. At present, there are approximately
thirty Summerbridge programs nationwide.

For 125 years, OES has benefitted from the long-range planning and vision of thought­

Each day our telephone
and mail bring us solicita­
tions for donations. The
volume of requests numbs
our senses. Our immediate
impulse is to hang up or
throw it away. Yer there
are causes or organizations
which tug at our con­
sciences, those we really
embrace and want to sup­
port. However, die con­
stant throb of unwanted
requests creates negative
&amp;
conditioning. We just say
“no!” or think “that’s
impossible!” without really
examining the possibilities.
In truth, there are many
methods of making chari­
table gifts, both large and
small. With a little coach­
ing on the menu of
options, the seemingly
impossible can be done.

I

Writing a check is only
one method of making a
charitable gift. While sim­
ple, it is not necessarily the
proper standard by which
affordability should be
measured if you really
want to make a larger gift.
The picture has to be more
complete. “Non-cash”

sold because of the
income tax consequences
or because of the reduc­
tion or loss of income it
produces. Charitable gifts
can unlock this dormant
investment and income
potential without adverse
consequences. In fact,
income and financial secu­
rity can be greatly
enhanced by these efforts
while creating a sizeable
benefit for a charitable
cause at the same time.
One of the devices com­
monly used to take advan­
tage of hidden financial
capacity is the Charitable
Remainder Trust. It is
based on a veiy simple
premise: you transfer
property to a trust, retain­
ing an income interest for
a specific term, and your
charity receives the bal­
ance of assets when the
term ends. The tax laws
grant a very favorable sta­
tus to these arrangements,
and many first reactions
are “it’s too good to be
true." On the contrary,
these arrangements have
been around for a long
time. They have long ago
passed out of the “gim­
mick” category and into
the main stream of estate
and financial planning.

assets such as securities,
real estate, works of art,
etc. must be included as
well as income sources
and needs. With these
facts available, then your
real financial capacity can
be measured and the likely
sources for making a gift
can be identified.

Most larger charitable gifts
from individuals are not
made in cash. The tax
costs and resource reduc­
tion may be simply too
high to make it worth­
while. Instead, many peo­
ple resort to various other
devices which make use of
their “hidden" financial
capacity. This capacity is
found in their appreciated
stock or real estate which
they believe should not be

The Charitable Remainder
Trust begins just like all

56

other charitable contribu­
tions. You first make a
transfer of assets. In this
case, the transfer is to a
trust. The trust recites all
of the terms and condi­
tions of the arrangement. Il
names the beneficiaries
and the trustees and
defines the relationships of
the parties. Many of these
terms are required by the
tax laws in order to sub­
stantiate the charitable
nature of the trust, and
your entitlement to the
charitable deduction.

The amount of the deduc­
tion depends on the num­
ber of variables you estab­
lish in the trust when the
transfer is made. The initial
variable is the income
interest you retain. You
must first decide how
much income you want
and how often it is to be
paid. The income rate is
expressed as an annual
percentage of the value of
the trust assets, i.e. 5%, 9%,
etc. Income rates you
received from the assets
prior to transfer are irrele­
vant. You can set the new
annual rate arbitrarily
based on your expected
needs. The lowest allow­
able rate is 5%, but there is
no maximum rate. You can
receive the income month-

&amp;

Tl

�l

ly, quarterly, semiquarterly
or annually. Generally, the
charitable reduction goes
down as the retained
income rate and payment
frequency go up.

s

When the income rate
and payment frequency
are established, you must
then decide who will
receive this income. The
income payments can be
retained for either a fixed
number of years or for
one or more lifetimes.
For instance, you may
decide to retain the
income payments for a
fixed period of 20 years.
You may then designate
yourself and several suc­
cessive, alternate beneficia­
ries to receive it during
that term, depending on
who is alive at any given
time. Another option is to
retain the income pay­
ments for your entire life­
time. You can also extend
the term to include the
lifetime of your spouse or
of a child or children.
Again, the charitable
deduction decreases as the
length of the retained
income term increases
(either expressed as a
fixed number of years or
through the duration of
one or more lifetimes).

rr d\' m n T&gt; 9 1 v 1

The last significant variable
is the form in which the
income payments are
determined. You may elect
to fix the amount you
receive when the initial
transfer is made. The same
payment amount will then
be paid to you throughout
the term of the trust. This
is an “annuity” trust. The
income payment is not
affected by subsequent
changes in the value of the
trust fund. The second for­
mat is a variable payment
amount. The same income
percentage rate is used
throughout the term, but
the assets of the trust are
re-valued at the beginning
of each year and the rate
applied to the new value.
Thus the payment amount
will fluctuate with the mar­
ket and value of the trust
assets. This is a “uni-trust.”
Generally, the deduction is
higher for an annuity trust
than a uni-trust.

S

charitable deduction. They
are not necessarily the
source of the income inter­
est you retain. Most often,
the assets you transfer to
the trust are sold. The pro­
ceeds are then reinvested
more appropriately to pro­
duce the income payments
to you. The sale may cre­
ate a gain, but there is not
tax because the law attrib­
utes the gain to the “taxexempt” charitable benefi­
ciary, not to you. Thus a
principal motivation for
creating a Charitable
Remainder Trust is to com­
pletely escape the tax
cost of changing your
investments. The trust is
the key to a tax-free con­
version of low or no
income assets into higher
income assets or of a sin­
gle asset into a diversified
portfolio of assets.

The second key to release
dormant investment and
income potential is the
charitable deduction itself.
The gain on the sale of the
assets you transfer to the
trust is not taxable, but the
income interest you retain
is taxable as you receive it
over the term of the trust.
The charitable deduction is
used to offset the tax con­
sequences of these income
payments. It can also offset

When these variables are
established, the charitable
deduction can be calculat­
ed. This deduction is one
of the twin keys the
Charitable Remainder Trust
utilizes to release dormant
investment and income
potential. The assets you
transfer to the trust are
only used to measure the

other income sources you
have, too, if the deduction
is large enough. The chari­
table deduction thus cre­
ates tax-free income where
none existed before.

The amount of the deduc­
tion is calculated using
actuarial tables furnished
by the IRS. As noted
above, the deduction
amount is directly affected
by the characteristics you
choose for the retained
income interest.
Sometimes, the deduction
amount is the principal
focus in selecting these
variables, whereas other
situations attribute less sig­
nificance to the deduction
and concentrate on maxi­
mizing personal income
security. In either case, the
amount of charitable
deduction which may be
used to offset your taxable
income is limited to the
percentage of your “adjust­
ed gross income.” Most
commonly, this limit is
20% of adjusted gross
income. It is not unusual
for the total deduction to
exceed this limit. In that
case, the tax law allows
you to “carry forward” the
excess deduction and
apply it against your tax-

a

I

able income in the next
five years. For example, if
your total charitable
deduction is $10,000 and
20% of your adjusted gross
income is $4,000, then you
can only use S4,000 of the
deduction this year, but
the remaining S6,000 of
the deduction is still avail­
able for use in the next
succeeding five years to
offset taxable income with­
in the 20% limitation.
The financial aspects of
the Charitable Remainder
Trust reflect your choices
in the variables affecting
the income interest you
retain. Once fixed, these
issues are rarely confront­
ed again. On the other
y hand, the Charitable
Remainder Trust is not
something you sign and
forget. It is, after all, still
a trust. It must have a
trustee to supervise and
execute its affairs. There
are many applicable rules
and regulations governing
the trust administration,
but substantial flexibility
also exists. Many people
turn to their professional
advisors to act as trustees,
such as banks, accountants
and attorneys. Some chari­
table organizations will
even act as trustees of
trusts for which they are

I

at least partially the even­
tual beneficiary. Com­
munity foundations (i.e.,
die Oregon Community
Foundation) make it their
business to act as trustees
and fund managers for
these trusts. Within certain
special limitations in place,
you can act as your own
trustee, too.

created with specific bene­
ficiaries in mind, but cir­
cumstances change. A
Charitable Remainder Trust
is by its very nature a long
term plan. In response to
inevitable change, the tax
laws permit you to retain
the right to change the
charitable beneficiary if
you choose. So long as
all the beneficiaries at all
times are qualified charita­
ble institutions, you can
make as many changes as
you wish. Only the list in
effect at the conclusion of
the trust term determines
which charities actually
receive the remaining
trust assets.

The duties of the trustee
are not insignificant. They
include the proper invest­
ment of the funds and the
payment of the income
interest to you. Annual tax
returns and information
reports must be prepared
and filed. The fees and
costs of the trustee or
financial management ser­
vices may be an issue to
some people, and each of
the alternatives will pre­
sent different services and
efficiencies. The final
choice is important since
the long term performance
of the trust directly affects
the ultimate benefit
received by the charity.
Prudence and experience
are key elements in the
selection criteria.

The income interest char­
acteristics and manage­
ment choices cover quite
a broad spectrum of
variables. Only one
attribute is ironclad from
the inception of the trust.
A Charitable Remainder
Trust is irrevocable. This
means the arrangement is
permanent until its course
is fully completed. The
characteristics of the
income interest cannot be
changed. The distribution
of the balance of the assets
to charities at the conclu­
sion of the trust term can­
not be changed. Areas of
flexibility do exist, but sec­
ond thoughts after the trust
is in place cannot alter the

The last variable is proba­
bly the one that truly pro­
vides the impetus for the
whole arrangement. That
is the identity of the chari­
table beneficiary or benefi­
ciaries. Many trusts are

58

trust or the ultimate fulfill­
ment of its purpose.

Many details are involved
in the decision to pursue a
larger charitable gift. The
first rule is the most obvi­
ous, but also the most dif­
ficult: lake off the blinders.
They only confine your
vision of the available
resources for a gift. The
second rule is equally
compelling: consult com­
petent professionals. They
are the only ones who can
give you a complete expla­
nation of all the options
open to you and the many
variables affecting each
one. No description of
planned charitable giving
alternatives is complete
without a thorough review
of a Charitable Remainder
Trust. It can provide the
means to make a substan­
tial charitable gift. In fact,
it can actually increase
your income and strength­
en your portfolio by diver­
sifying your investments.
Happily, the tax laws
promote rather than dis­
courage these positive
results, and the investment
transition is tax-free. With
these kinds of benefits
potentially available, the
issue is not whether to
do it, rather how you can
afford not to do it!

The New
Middle School:
Tow All We
1 V Need Are
the Walls!

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

For 125 years, thousands of
individuals have been touched
by their educational experiences
at St. Helens Hall, Bishop
Dagwell Hall, and Oregon
Episcopal School. Not only stu­
dents, but parents, teachers,
staff, alumni, grandparents, and
friends have grown and been
nurtured within the School’s
inclusive community.
Mr. Jong-Hyon Chey, chair­
man of the Sunkyong Group,
one of the five largest conglom­
erates in Korea, recently stated
in reference to the future direc­
tion of his own business: “We
are not awaiting the 21st centu­
ry, we intend to shape it.” How
perfectly applicable this state­
ment is to the implementation
process of the OES Long Range
Plan for the 21st Century, which

is appropriately called OES/21.
The OES Statement of
Purpose articulates both the
School that we are and the
School we are becoming, and
OES/21 details the essence of
what we seek to accomplish to
shape our institution for the
21st century. Like Mr. Chey,
the OES Board of Trustees
realizes the prudency of its
charge for long-range planning
and articulated goals.
Wise and careful trustee
management during the past
decade has allowed the School
to achieve financial solidity with
no external debt, a well-man­
aged plant with provisions for
deferred maintenance, and an
enrollment that is both the
largest in the School's history
(with plentiful wait pools in
each division) and the earlierthan-expected realization of our
student population goal outlined
in OES/21.
Our moment is al hand. We
have implemented many of the
components of the Long Range
Plan, ranging from a growing
endowment for faculty profes­
sional growth and development
to technology components that
60

include laptop computers for
each third, fourth, and fifth
grader, and laptop PC’s for all
sixth graders beginning in the
fall of 1995.
We are now ready to launch
the most energetic campus facil­
ities upgrade ever seen in the
125-year-history of the School.
The Trustees and Middle School
faculty have worked together
with the OES Design Review
Committee over the past year to
develop a facility that meets the
programmatic requirements of
the Middle School.
The proposed new Middle
School building will secure an
academically excellent environ­
ment for all our current students
as well as the thousands of stu­
dents who follow them into the
21st century. We have a superb
Middle School program that is a
model of what a truly excellent
Middle School should be, and it
is racing towards the 21st centu­
ry! All that is missing is the
building that will fulfill the
space and programmatic needs
of the children who learn within
its walls. We need you to help
us build it!

e celebrate the 125th year
of OES during the 1994-95
school year and it promises
to be memorable. I feel very lucky
beginning my term as President of
the Alumni Association during such
an exciting time. I hope you have
the opportunity to attend some of
the events scheduled throughout
the year. Many volunteers and
dedicated staff have worked long
hours developing them.

Summer is always a busy time at
the School and this past summer
was no exception.
The Alumni Association welcomed
its newest members at the Senior
Reception held on June 9. The
Class of 1994 added 47 members
to our ranks, which total approxi­
mately 1,800. At the reception I
was pleased to introduce Jo-Anne
Landry as the 1994 Class Agent.
Jo-Anne, who is studying in
England this fall, will act as
liason between the School and
her classmates.

I

Class reunions are held each June
and this year we celebrated the
classes ending in “4” and “9”.

■

I was touched by the stories about
World War II, in particular D-Day,
which occurred close to their grad­
uation. One alumna remembers
how calmly Bishop Dagwell
announced the invasion and how
he allayed their fears. Another
classmate told of her fiancee who
lost his life landing off Holland that
same summer.

Most recollections, however, were
met with laughter and smiles. I
hope in another 30 years my 50th
class reunion is just as memorable.

My graduating class of 1974 cele­
brated its 20th reunion this past
summer. Eighteen out of 36 class­
mates were able to attend at least
one event. Brent Erensel and Max
Miller Jr. deserve much thanks for
organizing the gathering.
Our reunion was that much more
joyful with the recent news that our
classmates, Tanja Vaselijevic
Horvat, was granted entry to the
United States. Tanja, a citizen of
Saravejo, had been living in
Germany with her daughter Ivana
since escaping the war that has
destroyed her homeland. OES
offered Tanja, who is a trained
doctor, the position of laboratory
assistant in the science depart­
ment. Without a job, Tanja and
Ivana would not have been able to
enter the United States.

The OES Board of Directors,
Headmaster Peter W. Stevens,
the Development Office, the
Rosenlund family, Max Miller Jr.,
Autumn Alexander-Skeen, John
Wysham, Jenny Holden and others
are to be thanked for their efforts
concerning Tanja. Their concern,
humanitarianism and actions
exemplify the spirit of OES.

This fall and winter also promise
to be busy. Many activities are
scheduled to celebrate the 125th.
An example is the Alumni Lecture
Series, which runs throughout
the school year in conjunction with
the programs of the OES Parent
Education Committee. Guest
speakers from our alumni ranks
are scheduled to speak on a
variety of topics.

The Alumni Assocation extends
a special invitation to all alumni,
parents and friends of OES to
attend the 1994 Founders Day
Anniversary Gala. This year we
honor Betsy Johnson, Class of
1969, with the Distinguished
Alumni Award named in honor of
the founder of St. Helens Hall in
1869, Bishop Benjamin Wistar
Morris. The award will be present­
ed during the Founders’ Day Gala.
Chet Orloff, Executive Director of
the Oregon Historical Society will
be our guest speaker and Gerry
Frank will be our Master of
Ceremonies. It promises to be
an entertaining evening.
Another anniversary event will be
the appearance of actress and
UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador
Liv Ullmann, on December 8.
Ms. Ullmann will speak on “Making
the World A Better Place for Our
Children,” a very appropriate topic
for the OES community.
I am excited about this anniversary
and I hope you are too! As always,
your ideas and comments about
how the Alumni Association can
best serve the alumni community
are welcome.

OES better and to understand
from multiple perspectives where
the opportunities lie to make a
fine school even better. I hope to
have a relaxed conversation with
all faculty, staff, and trustees by
the end of the first year; my chats
so far have been stimulating and
illuminating, and are always a high­
light of the day.

A Letter from
the Headmaster
Dear Friends,
The past two months have been an
exciting time for my family and me,
and I would like to take this oppor­
tunity to share with you some
impressions from our first few
weeks as newcomers to Portland
and to the OES family.

After our move from the Cate
School in southern California in
early July, we got ourselves settled
in a very comfortable house in
Raleigh Hills, only a few minutes
away from school. I confess to feel­
ing real pleasure in having some
space in our new abode for two
growing and at times rambunctious
kids, since we lived in an increas­
ingly cramped dorm apartment at
the Cate School. But I also confess
to some genuine anxiety as a newly
minted homeowner, since now we
have a lawn that needs attention,
and we have never “done lawns”
before. I confess, too, to having
wandered down to OES’s playing
field more than once and, when no
one was looking, getting down on
hands and knees to admire with
considerable envy the fine state of
the School’s turf.
After traveling to the east coast and
then to Hawaii for two wonderful
conferences in July and August, I
began the new school year in
earnest in late August by having
conversations with faculty, staff,
and trustees in order to get to know

We kicked off the 1996/97 acade­
mic year in a more formal way
with a wonderful day-and-a-half
all-faculty-and-staff retreat at
Menucha, a breathtaking site on
the southern palisade of the
Columbia River, about an hour
away from Portland. There I had
an opportunity to share a few
thoughts about the importance of
vision, the connection of mission
to vision, and my belief in the
essential importance of OES’s
mission to educate our students
so that, in the words of the
School’s mission statement, “they
may realize their power for good as
citizens of local and world commu­
nities.” In future editions of The
OES Belltower I look forward to
sharing with you more thoughts
about citizenship and its role as
the central pillar upon which all of
our work at OES rests.
Following the Menucha retreat
came a dizzying whirlwind of events
surrounding the formal opening of
school, which involved meeting new
parents and students, some lovely
picnics, several speeches, my for­
mal installation as Headmaster and,

best of all, much laughter and fun.
It is here that my family and I felt in
its fullest form the warmth, care and
friendliness that lie at the heart of
the OES spirit, and we are grateful
to all for such an extraordinarily
warm welcome.
During the past two weeks, with the
start of regular instruction, I have
had a chance to observe several
classes in each of the three divi­
sions, and have been impressed
with the professionalism of our
faculty, the quality of their instruc­
tion and, most important, their
manifest love of their students.
Last year the Pacific Northwest
Association of Independent
Schools (PNAIS) completed its
report on OES, as part of our regu­
lar accreditation process, and what
I have seen in the classroom con­
firms overwhelmingly what the
PNAIS committee wrote in its sum­
mary, namely, that OES “stands as
an exemplar among independent
schools for whom establishment of
a mutually supportive, respectful,
and nurturing community is a
value.” It is a privilege indeed to
be working with such a dedicated
and spirited group of educators.

The first year for me will continue
to be one of getting to know the
many marvelous people who make
up the OES family; celebrating our
successes while listening carefully
for opportunities for improvement;
supporting the three divisions and
the admissions, business and
development offices; and getting
to know more about Oregon and
the Northwest. It is the start of a
rare and wonderful adventure, for
which I am very grateful. I look
forward to meeting and hearing
from as many of you in the OES
family as possible in the weeks
and months to come.
Sincerely,

Charles K. Bergman
Headmaster

New Headmaster Adds Life to OES
Charlie Bergman Joins OES Community
Charlie Bergman has accomplished
what the leader of any independent
school or non-profit organization
dreams of doing. During the few
short months since he joined the
OES community as its new head­
master, he has generated excite­
ment among faculty, staff, parents,
trustees, alumni and students
about what can seem a rather eso­
teric subject: its mission statement.

“You’re going to hear a lot about
this from me,” Charlie admitted
to many of the audiences of the
numerous gatherings he attended
in the first days of the new school
year. "OES has a wonderful sense
of mission, and I like to talk
about it!”
Since joining OES, Charlie’s
enthusiasm and optimism for the
School and its community has
been infectious. He is a self-proclaimed optimist. When he talks to
students, he emphasizes simple
things: Take care of yourself, he
says, and respect others. Respect
OES. Do everything as well as you
can. When he talks to faculty, staff
and parents, he emphasizes many
of the same things.
In venues ranging from his own
installation as headmaster to an
Upper School students’ "Town
Hall” meeting to the Menucha faculty/staff retreat, Charlie reads the
mission statement aloud, explores
the meaning of its components,
points out why it works, and pon­
ders how the OES community can
make it a living statement.

come on board, he’s
given it new life, and
his enthusiasm for our
mission has me excited

Charlie was appointed by
the Board of Trustees in
February of this year and
came on board in July.
He comes to OES from
Cate School, in
Carpinteria, CA, where
he was Director of their
Asian Studies program.

Charlie’s experience in China
influenced more than his profes­
sional life. In the early days of his
stint with IBM China he met his wife
Catherine (who also goes by her
Chinese name, Shu-lin) who was
employed there as a systems engi­
neer. After returning to the States in
1988 Charlie asked her to join him.
Catherine was no stranger to the
U.S., having done computer stud­
ies graduate work in Dallas and at
the University of California, San
Francisco. Within a few months of
her return, Charlie and Catherine
were engaged, and they were mar­
ried in March of 1989.
The Bergmans have two children,
Elizabeth, 6, and William, 3.
Elizabeth is in OES’ 1st grade, and
is treated to periodic classroom
visits from her father. In addition to
the customary and time-consuming
duties of any independent school
administrator, Charlie is diligent
about spending a part of nearly
every school day in various class­
rooms across the Lower, Middle
and Upper Schools.

▲ In the opening days of school, Charlie spread the word about his admira­
tion for OES’ mission statement.
“Charlie’s love of children and his
talents with them were evident
from the start.”
Ultimately, Charlie is quick to
praise OES’ excellent foundation,
and congratulates the School’s

“Among the principal commenda­
tions in the report is an extraordi­
nary statement: ‘OES stands as an
exemplar among independent
schools for whom the establishment
of a mutually supportive, respectful,
and nurturing community is a
value,’ Charlie points out.

“I hope that after an exhausting
year preparing for PNAIS review
that the entire community is pat­
ting itself on the back for a job well
done," he continues. “The faculty
and staff at OES deserve congrat­
ulations for all the great work
they’ve been doing. I’m delighted
that I will now be a part of such a
fine group of professionals, and
look forward to continuing such a
strong tradition.”
Judging by his first days in the
OES community, Charlie Bergman
is well on his way to making the
School’s mission, as he says, “a
living statement." Faculty, parents
and alumni invariably note that he
has infused the campus with a new
sense of energy and optimism.

“Charlie has made many visits to
the Lower School over the past two
months, and I’ve seen him mes­
merize a 3rd grade class with a
card trick and charm the Beginning
School with his singing,’’ says

percent vision and ninety-five
percent details—all the work down
in the trenches,” reflects Anne
Cass. “Charlie is doing a really
good job of reminding all of us
about that critical five percent.”

OES’ 1996 Founders’ Day Celebrates 100th Birthday
of Alumna Beatrice Paget 15
/f
(l

Vl regon Episcopal School
| j is delighted to announce

that Beatrice Thurston
Paget '15, Oregon Episcopal
School's oldest living alumna,
celebrated her 100th birthday on
October 11,1996. The OES com­
munity will have the opportunity to
celebrate with her at Founders’ Day
on November 12, when she will be
honored as the School’s Bishop
Benjamin Wistar Morris
Distinguished Alumna for 1996.

Beatrice Paget is a natural choice
for the award which recognizes
and honors alumni of St. Helens
Hall and the Junior College, Bishop
Dagwell Hall and OES for their
achievements in their professional
careers and their contributions to
the community.
Beatrice was born in 1896 in Wells,
OR, and upon graduating from
St. Helens Hall in 1915 attended
the University of Oregon. Her real
adventures began after her second
year at the University. Beatrice was
offered a job with the Chautauqua,
an organization which provided
culture prior to the radio age to
small towns across the U.S. and
the world with symphony concerts,
operas, plays and lectures.
Beatrice was a natural at pro­
motion, and decided to continue
her work with the Chautauqua
organization rather than return to
the University of Oregon. At age 19
she was traveling as far as New
Zealand and Australia to arrange
cultural bookings.

During her times with the
Chautauqua, Beatrice met her
husband, Lowell Paget, and they
were married in 1919. After
finishing their undergraduate
studies at Oregon State University
in 1921, Beatrice and Lowell Paget
entered Northwestern School of
Law and graduated in 1924.
Beatrice was one of only three
women in her graduating class. She
and Lowell became involved in
Oregon politics, and Lowell was
elected to the Oregon Legislature in
1932 and was appointed the

Wistar Morris Distinguished Alumni Award.
National Republican Party Chair­
man for Oregon in 1960, a position
he held until he died in 1967.
Beatrice became the President of
the Oregon League of Women
Voters in 1935 and successfully
lobbied for passage of Aid to
Families with Dependent Children,
arguing that single women should
receive support so that their
families would not be separated.

Oregon Episcopal School has en­
joyed Beatrice’s recent involvement
in many aspects of the School. She
was an honored guest at the 125th
Anniversary Founders’ Day Gala in
1994, and appeared on the cover
of the fall 1995 OES Belltower,
posing with other key OES
volunteers on the site of the nowcompleted new Middle School
building. She has truly been an
inspiration to the OES community,

14

and the School is delighted to
honor her with the 1996 Bishop
Benjamin Wistar Morris
Distinguished Alumni Award.

In addition to honoring the life and
achievements of Beatrice Paget,
Founders’ Day will feature
Northwest author Robin Cody.
Cody will talk about writing,
Northwest literature, and, most
notably, his 1,200-mile canoe trip
down the Columbia River. His
book, Voyage of a Summer Sun, is
an account of this trip, and each
guest will receive a complimentary
autographed copy at Founders’
Day. Tickets for Founders’ Day,
which will be held at the
Multnomah Athletic Club from
7:00-9:00 p.m. on November 12,
are still available for $25 per
person, and can be reserved by
calling the Alumni &amp; Development
Office at 768-3153.

�HEADMASTER'S

REPORT

Dear Friends,

Other thanks are also due to Sue
Nicol, Director of the Capital
Campaign, who finished her work at
OES at the end of August and is on
her way to new challenges and
adventures. Without Sue’s vision and
hard work, we simply would not
have the successful campaign that
we are blessed with today.

s the new Headmaster of
Oregon Episcopal School.
JL
I am pleased to be able to
congratulate the OES community on
all of its fundraising accomplish­
ments of the past year. Perhaps the
strongest of many wonderful first
impressions since my arrival this
summer is of the extraordinary dedi­
cation to the support and financial
well-being that I have seen evident
within the entire OES community.
A

This support manifests itself in many
ways: it can be seen in the hard
work of the volunteers who make
the annual fund and auction a suc­
cess; or in the dedication of the
trustees who do the essential leg­
work in making the case for OES
with major donors; or in the work of
the development office staff in keep­
ing the School’s development efforts
on track; or in the generosity of the
many donors who have ensured that
OES is able to reach its critical fund
raising goals.

One of the great pleasures in my day
is the opportunity to write a note of
thanks to each donor to OES, and it
is indeed a thrill to have said “thank
you,” and then step outside and
glance at the new Middle School
building, whose very real form is ele­
gant testimony to what generous
donors are able to accomplish at an
independent school.

▲ New Headmaster Charlie Bergman
with Lower School Assistant Head
Sydney Gold andformer Headmaster
Peter Stevens.

There are many volunteers who
need to be thanked for their invalu­
able efforts on behalf of our School.
The 1995-96 OES FUND had a
remarkable year under the leader­
ship of chairs Julie Drinkward and
Beth Warner, who worked with an
energetic group of volunteers and
raised a record total of over
$373,000. My wife Catherine and I
had the opportunity to join all of you
at the Around the World Auction in
May, which raised $167,000. Pat
Karamanos and her corp of volun­
teers put in many hours over the
school year, and are to be com­
mended on their dedication to what
was a spectacular event.
Peter Bechen also deserves thanks
and congratulations for his work as
Chair of the Middle School Campaign
Committee. His Herculean labors
along with the efforts of the numer­
ous other campaign committee
members have ensured that the
campaign has stayed on track—the
new Middle School building is the
clearest evidence of that! And, of
course, none of these volunteer
accomplishments would have been
possible without the direction of the
Board of Trustees, under the superb
leadership of its Chairman, the Most
Rev. Robert L. Ladehoff, and
President John von Schlegell.

I also want to lake the opportunity
to welcome OES’ new Director of
Development, John Lauerman, who
began work in September. John
comes to us with more than fifteen
years of development experience in
independent schools, most recently
with Lake Forest Academy in Lake
Forest, Illinois. John is a warm,
engaging man with a great sense of
humor, and OES is fortunate indeed
to have found a man of his profes­
sionalism and experience to assume
leadership of the development office.
My family and I feel honored to be
associated with a school as fine as
OES. 1 look forward with great antic­
ipation and much excitement to be
working with all members of our
community in the months and years
to come to ensure that OES builds
on its many successes, strives always
to be the very best that it can be,
and fulfills its destiny to be a citadel
of educational excellence in the
Pacific Northwest.

Sincerely,

Charles K. Bergman
Headmaster

�REPORT FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD
Dear Family and Friends of OES:
n behalf of the Board of
I ■ Trustees, I would like to officially welcome you to the
next stage of growth and achieve­
ment at OES. We are building on
over a century and a quarter of
accomplishments, setbacks, chal­
lenges and successes. As Bishop
Ladehoff recently observed, OES is
a decidedly different place from the
school envisioned by Bishop
Benjamin Wistar Morris 127 years
ago, yet we continue to build on
that same core vision and ethos.
I am particularly pleased to present
our newest steward and leader as we
approach the year 2000—Mr. Charles
K. Bergman. 1 hope you will all take
the time to get to know Charlie. He
is accessible with a sincere interest in
what you have to say. He loves chil­
dren, and he and his wife Catherine
(you should take the time to meet
her, too!) have two of their own.
Elizabeth is in OES’ first grade, and
William is three years old.

The Trustees selected Charlie
because he is a visionaiy, an enthusi­
astic educator with a passion for
excellence, and he has a deep
respect for teachers and what they
do. Furthermore, he understands the
healthy balance between “don’t fix it
if it isn’t broken’’ and our stated goal
to “take OES to the next level.”

We are building on a record year at
all levels of development, and our
volunteers are to be commended for
their tireless energy and attention to
our most successful fundraising
efforts over the past year. The OES
FUND, chaired by Julie Drinkward
and Beth Warner, raised $373,204,
exceeding its goal by more than
$18,000. The OES Around the World
Auction was headed by Chair Pat
Karamanos, and netted an amazing
$167,000 on proceeds of $205,000. It
has been exciting and gratifying to
see such commitment from the com­
munity to both of these annual
fundraising achievements.

The Rt.
Mr. John von Schlegell,
Ms. Sheryl Acheson,
Vice President

Ms. Christine Kitchel,
Secretary

Mr. Wayne Drinkward,
Treasurer

The first phase of the Master Plan
effort was led by Peter Bechen, and
successfully raised over $4.5 million
dollars from the OES community and
outside foundations for the new
Middle School and Bishop Dagwell
Hall renovations. It’s wonderful to
see the new Middle School, complet­
ed and in use—it’s truly a testament
to what this community can do!

Mr. Dick Alexander
Mr. Marty Brantley
The Very Rev. C. Roy Coulter
Ms. Harriett Dixon
Mr. Robert Durst
Mrs. Betty Hedberg
The Rev. Lucy Houser
Mr. Sean Kuni ‘81
Ms. Elisabeth Lyon,

As we approach the next level,
we can all take great pride in what
OES stands for and what has been
accomplished. We must also rededi­
cate ourselves to the time, energy,
money, volunteering and focus
required to make a great school even
better. I believe that we have as
much reason to be optimistic as at
any time in the long history of OES.

The Rev. Robert Morrison
Mr. David Munro
The Rev. Stephen Norcross
Mr. Chet Orloff
Mr. John Spring
Mr. Dale Stewart
Ms. Anne Thanhouser
Mr. Splinter Wrenn

I hope you and your families have
a productive and healthy 1996-97
school year.

Auction, poses in front of one of the numerous oral auction
items with master of ceremonies, Gerry Frank.

AUCTION
The 1996 Around the
World Auction raised a
total of $167,000. From this
total, $50,000 was added
to the Edward E. Ford
Endowment Fund. Income
from the Endowment sup­
ports the professional
growth and development
of our outstanding faculty
and staff. Another $50,000
will have an immediate
effect on faculty growth
and development, as it has
been added to the School’s
1996-97 operation budget
to pay for conferences,
graduate study, profession­
al leave, research, and col­
laborative pedagogical
efforts. The remaining
$67,000 is being used to
enhance parking on cam­
pus. Thanks to all the par­
ents, alumni, trustees,
businesses and special
friends who joined the
auction committee to sup­
port our faculty and staff.

�SUMMERBRIDGE
Summerbridge Portland is a col­
laborative effort by Oregon Episcopal
School and the Catlin Gabel School
to prepare motivated middle school
students for success in rigorous high
school programs. The program stems
from a strong commitment on the
part of the two schools to focus on
students who have had limited edu-

and creativity. The summer program
is complimented by school-year
tutoring, Saturday schools, high
school counseling for eighth graders
and other forms of academic and
personal support.
In addition to preparing middle
school students for success in high
school, Summerbridge serves as a
training ground for a new
generation of teachers.
For young faculty mem­

total immersion into the
field of education. They

Final Report of Phase I of the Master Plan
W Dear Parents, Alumni and
w Friends of OES,
I
Over the past year, OES has
certainly proven itself as a
community which sets goals
and reaches them! The most
compelling evidence now
stands two stories high in the
middle of our campus—our
new Middle School facility,
which is now filled with
students and faculty.
W ,-w
We could not have reached
' this goal, however, without the
vision, dedication and support
of many people. In 1988, the
_ ~~ Board of Trustees adopted a
•—— • Strategic Plan which subsequently led to an 18-month
study, called OES/21, which
involved a large portion of the
OES community in designing a
plan to accomplish the goals
and objectives of the Strategic
Plan. Out of this study came
the campus Master Plan for
new and renovated facilities.
Among the components of
the new Master Plan was the
construction of the new Middle
School and subsequent reno­
vation of Bishop Dagwell Hall
(BDH), the former Middle
School building into a multi­
purpose fine arts facility. The
trustees determined that the
I new Middle School was the
i lynchpin of the entire Master
■ Plan, which also includes reno| vation of the Upper School and
I construction of a performing

liil

arts center.
J
In early 1995, the fundraisI ing campaign was launched in
a very quiet way, and by fall of
that year almost $2 million had
• been raised! Additionally, a $1
, million challenge grant from
I the Meyer Memorial Trust and
; a $100,000 grant from the

Collins Foundation were key
gifts which pushed us closer
to our goal. This past spring
and summer saw a surge of
gifts and donations from the
OES community, and we
reached our goal of $4.6 mil­
lion for both the Middle School
and the BDH renovations. On
October 29, 1996, the Middle
School, called Meyer Hall in
honor of the Meyer Memorial
Trust, was officially opened
and dedicated.
There are many people to
thank for this amazing effort,
not the least of which are the
numerous volunteers who
helped in so many ways.
Rocky Dixon and Tony Adams
ably chaired the hard-working
and very successful major gifts
committee. Parents Kip and
Sheryl Acheson and John and
Priscilla Longfield were extra­
ordinary chairs of fundraising
among our parent community,
and several parents had
neighborhood gatherings
which served to educate fel­
low OES families about the
need for a new Middle School.
Staff led by Peter Stevens and
Charyl Cathey provided lead­
ership and support, and Sue
Nicol and her development
group were enthusiastic, tire­
less contributers to the cam­
paign. Ultimately, of course,
the hundreds of people who
made such generous gifts to
the Middle School campaign
are to be thanked for their
support, because without
them we would not have
reached this milestone. A
complete list of all donors to
the Middle School and BDH
arts renovation is included in
this OES Belltower.

42

I am happy to say that
we now have another mile­
stone ahead: Following the
renovation of Bishop Dagwell
Hall, which has commenced
as we go to print with this
issue of The OES Belltower,
we will begin to phase into
plans for the renovation of our
Upper School. Another excit­
ing challenge for the OES
community! Let’s keep the
momentum building to take
OES to a new level as we
approach the 21st Century.
It has been an honor to
serve as the Chair of the
Campaign Steering Com­
mittee over the past two
years, and inspiring to see the
OES community come togeth­
er to build our new Middle
School. I thank you for your
generous support.

Sincerely yours,

Alumni Association
President’s Corner
The school year is off and running!
And what a great year this will
be! As future alumni look back
on this year they will remember
a new Middle School building
which has been constructed with
the help of numerous members of
our community.

▲ Jack McCann,
Jr. 84. Alumni
Association
President

We will also remember the begin­
ning of a new era under the leader­
ship of our new Headmaster, Mr.
Charlie Bergman. Charlie was for­
mally installed on September 10 in
the Parish of St. John the Baptist
on the OES campus. During the
ceremony your Alumni Association
presented him with a framed photo

of the original site of St. Helens
Hall. We hope this will remind
Charlie of the rich history of our
school, which started with St.
Helens Hall in 1869. We also pre­
sented him with an OES Alumni
Directory which we hope will help
him get to know us. Faculty, staff,
parents, students and alumni are all
thrilled that the Board of Trustees
and the headmaster search com­
mittee were able to find such an
well-qualified and exemplary head­
master. Charlie's guidance and
vision shall lead our community
well into the 21st century.

Alumni Association events are off
to a flying start! At the beginning of
the year we held our fifth annual
Alumni Soccer Tournament.
Although your alumni team fought
hard to win they were beaten by a
team made up of future alumni—
the current boy’s varsity soccer
team! It’s never too early to start
practicing for next year!
In October we kicked off the OES
FUND campaign under the leader­
ship of Liza Lilley ‘74, past Alumni
Association President and current
Trustee member. This year’s OES
FUND theme is Raising Community
Spirit, and the goals of the cam­
paign are to raise $380,000 and to
increase participation. All donations
to the OES FUND go directly to the
operating budget of our school.

The FUND allows for a diverse aca­
demic program while helping to
keep tuition at a reasonable level.
Without your continued support of
the FUND, many students might
not be able to enjoy the same level
of education that all of us had.
Please show your love for the
School by making a generous gift.

OES needs YOU! As a student at
the School you played a vital role in
its history, and as an alum you play
just as vital a role in its future! I
strongly encourage you to get
involved—the benefits you will
receive are as immeasurable as is
your love for your alma mater.
The OES Alumni Board would be
honored to have you back on
campus for lunch and a tour.
Come back and reminisce, visit our
beautiful campus and see the
changes, and reacquaint yourself
with our outstanding community.
Please call the Alumni Office at
768-3153 to arrange a date, and
we’ll look forward to seeing you.

◄ Among the many
gifts given to OES’ new
headmaster at his
installation was a
photo of the original
site of the School
where it was estab­
lished in 1869, pre­
sented by Alumni
Association President
Jack McCann Jr. 84.

This Feelin’ The Blues

Lazy slow, sticky summer,
in a bedroom
next to a window fan.
Smoking a cigarette
and leaning against
a chimney,
next to a bed.
B.B. King is singing
some roadside blues,
and I too am knowing
those chains and
thangs.

Bum bum ba dwat dum,
goes the slow sliding
slapping of the bass.
Heartbeat
stoned eyes, hot air
circulation
and betrayal.

Feeling like a sleeve
less tee-shirt,
and shorts, sitting in
a Harlem window
sill, cryin over loss
kind of guy.
In fades the radio,
“I got a cold hearted
wrong doin’ woman,
and a sssslave drivin’
boss.”

A Letter from
the Headmaster

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

Dear Friends,
One of the articles in this issue
of the Belltower describes our new
eighth-grade Leadership Program,
an exciting addition to the Middle
School curriculum introduced for
the first time this fall under the
direction of Middle School Head
Charyl Cathey. There is indeed no
challenge greater than developing
the leaders we will need to realize
the enormous potential for good in
the next century, and the eighth­
grade Leadership Program is an
excellent example of Oregon
Episcopal School’s commitment to
fulfilling its responsibility as an
educator of future leaders.
John W. Gardner has perhaps
written more eloquently than any
recent author about the challenges
of leadership and our need to do a
better job as educators in develop­
ing capable leaders for the tasks
that lie ahead. In his marvelous
book, On Leadership, Gardner
writes, “Most men and women go
through their lives using no more
than a fraction—usually a rather
small fraction—of the potentialities
within them. The reservoir of
unused human talent and energy is
vast, and learning to tap that reser­
voir is one of the exciting tasks
ahead for humankind. (And) among
the untapped capabilities are lead­
ership gifts.”
Gardner makes an excellent
point, and shows us that an essen­
tial first task we have as educators
of leaders is to come to an under­
standing of what leadership really
entails. This is especially important
since in the last two decades or so
the notion of leadership has unfor­
tunately become confused with
celebrity, and this confusion is par-

L

tute brought her that status, and
she had the great wisdom to use
her celebrity constructively to fur­
ther her cause.
Bringing clarity to the real nature
of leadership, as opposed to
celebrity, therefore becomes criti­
cally important. And in thinking
about the true nature of leadership,
we are fortunate at OES to have the
wisdom of the Episcopal tradition
to help guide us. Scripture, in par­
ticular, is illuminating, especially
since leadership is the subject of
one of Jesus’ greatest lessons—
namely, that the essence of leader­
ship lies in service to others. In
Mark 10:42-44, Jesus says, “You
know that among the Gentiles the
recognized rulers lord it over their
subjects, and the great make their
authority felt. It shall not be so with
you; among you, whoever wants to
be great must be your servant, and
whoever wants to be first must be
the slave of all.”
There is an important link be­
tween this notion of leader-as-servant, the mission of OES, and the
superb health of the School today.
OES’s mission is “to prepare stu­
dents of promise...so that they may
realize their power for good in local
and world communities.” Central to

2

this wonderful statement is the
concept of good citizenship. Last
year the faculty helped bring this
idea into sharper focus by writing
an elegant companion to the mis­
sion statement that lists what we
feel are the essential characteristics
of a good citizen. The first charac­
teristic in the list is that good citi­
zens are “those who commit them­
selves to lives of leadership in
service to others.” That the idea of
service, a cornerstone of OES’s
Episcopal foundation, is so clearly
alive and well at the School today is
tremendously reassuring and
should make us all feel very proud.
Gardner concludes On Leader­
ship by focusing on the trait of opti­
mism always found in great lead­
ers. He writes, "Out of a positive
attitude toward the future comes
much of the boldness and courage
to risk failure so characteristic of
the ablest leaders.” Gardner’s point
is extremely important for all of us
in the OES family, because we all
know the toll that a pervasive cyni­
cism has taken in the U.S. as we
close the twentieth century. As
adults who care deeply for the
welfare of our children, we have
much work to do to eliminate that
cynicism and reinforce in them a
sense of optimism, and it is pre­
cisely for this reason that a focus
on optimism is a key element of the
program that Charyl and her faculty
have designed for OES’s eighth­
graders.
In closing, I would like to ask all
of you in the OES extended family
to help me in our work at the
School by making every effort to
encourage a positive outlook in the
young people you know, help them
discover their capacities for leader­
ship, and do everything you can to
ensure that they develop a robust
faith in themselves and their ability
to shape their future. With this as
their foundation, they can go forth
with confidence, and harness the
full power of the spirit of service
that lies at the heart of Oregon
Episcopal School for the benefit of
all mankind.
Sincerely,

Charles K. Bergman

they step courageously out
into the spotlight. Each foot in front
of the other is carefully placed on
the wire. Fellow performers swing
in wide giddy arcs high above the
crowd below. Flinging herself from
a trapeze, a shimmering young
artist seems suspended for two,
three heartbeats. A friend swings
out toward her reaching at the right
moment and catches her hands.
They swing off together, precari­
ously hinged, triumphant.
We watch from below. We hold the
safety net. We are astounded,
thrilled, terrified by the perfor­
mance. These young people are
our daughters, sons, students.
They are adolescents stepping out
into the world, learning new skills,
taking risks, changing and growing
minute to minute. We are attentive,
supportive, encouraging. Every one
of us is needed to hold the net. Our
children, our students will make
mistakes and occasionally lose
their grip but we will be here to
support them. Those of us who
care about these young people
form a home-school partnership to
sustain them through these amaz­
ing years.
This fall we committed ourselves to
an exciting new middle school project-Leadership Week. It brought
together eighth grade students,
their parents, and school staff to
look at who we are, where we are
going, how we communicate, and
how we solve problems. We cele­
brated our strengths, defined our
challenges and considered some
solutions. We gave ourselves time
to strengthen our connections as a
community.

week ropes course activity.
The idea for this project came as a
result of our careful reflection on
potential areas of growth for our
middle school program. We wanted
a renewed focus on student leader­
ship, teamwork, communication
and collaboration between stu­
dents, faculty, and families. Pieces
were added and validated by the
work of the drug and alcohol task
force. Finally, the effort was
blessed by the NAIS theme for this
year of Family-School Partnerships.

Beginning just two days after the
start of school, teams of eighth
graders rotated through three full
days of activities. Peer counseling,
a business simulation, doing the
ropes course, and examining the
mission and goals of OES were the

4

agenda for the first days. Middle
School Head Charyl Cathey is
pleased with the opportunities this
new program brings. “The eighth
graders really set the tone for the
student-culture in the Middle
School. Setting aside these four
days at the beginning of the year
underscores the importance of their
role as leaders in their school.”
Humanities teacher Steve Brennan
found the activities to be wonderful,
inspirational, and very positive.
“The eighth graders were really up
to the challenge of these days, and
have shown themselves to be a
strong and thoughtful class-full of
leadership potential."

�Lisa Gordon, who teaches GALA
(Government and Language Arts),
worked with students on the ropes
course. She found it an exciting
opportunity to work and problem
solve in ways different from the
usual classroom model. Lisa saw
the students eagerly take on the
challenges. She noticed in several
cases how kids who normally might
not step up and lead in the class­
room were able to find a leadership
role in this physical environment.
The interplay among following,
leading, and supporting one anoth­
er to accomplish a goal was one
which Charyl Cathey had hoped
would be a central learning point
for the activity.

The workshop with parents and
students gave parents an opportu­
nity to have a structured discussion
with their children. In some cases
this was an eye opening experience
for the parents who had not yet
viewed their children in the role of
young adult. The students also
found this an interesting opportuni­
ty to see themselves through their
parents’ eyes.
“Our children have attended private
schools since they were in pre-K,”
says new OES parent Mignon
Mazique. “We have done this for a
number of reasons — support for
values, the academic challenge, a
sense of community. For the first
time, we feel like we have found
that. It’s a great feeling to have the
‘worth’ of a private education vali­
dated in this way.” Mignon also
found confidence in remarks made
by Headmaster Charlie Bergman.
“It was nice to hear the Head speak
about the long term and the future,
and know that at OES there is a
forward looking view." As a new­
comer to OES, she also enjoyed
the chance to meet other parents
and have developed, thoughtful
conversations. Coming into a new
school, her daughter Leah also
found the week to be a great intro­
duction to her classmates. Leah
does have one regret: “We should
have started doing this on the sec­
ond day!"
Cindy McEnroe knows the week’s
events have had a profound impact.
“As I walk in the halls, I hear differ­
ent conversations, conversations

about honesty, fairness, kindness,
and tolerance. These have always
been issues for students, but I
didn’t hear these things last year.
We are now, in October, where we
would normally be in March. We
will be able to accomplish some
great new things by getting this
early start.”
When asked if this will become a
yearly event, Middle School Head
Charyl Cathey replies, “We will
definitely do this again with eighth
graders as a ‘rite of passage’.
Because of the great parent
response, we are looking at some
similar types of things to do with
sixth and seventh grade parents.”

CITIZENSHIP AT OES
Growing from a faculty and staff retreat held in September 1996, a faculty committee spent part of
last year helping to bring a central idea of our mission statement into sharper focus. The idea of
“citizen” is expanded upon in this piece and lists what we feel are the essential characteristics of
the good citizen. Central to our definition is the idea of leadership.

The purpose of Oregon Episcopal School is to prepare students with promise for higher education
and lifelong learning and to enhance their intellectual, physical, social, emotional, spiritual, and
artistic growth so that they may realize their power for good as citizens of local and world com­
munities. OES believes that good citizens:

■ commit themselves to lives of leadership in service to others;
■ view themselves as part of a whole, working and playing cooperatively with others to better
the communities of which they are a part;
■ care deeply about the welfare of others and understand that love is the most powerful force
for bettering society;
■ hold their honor sacred, living lives of integrity and truth;

■ respect the rights and opinions of others, and the institutions that are the foundation of a
democratic society;
■ understand the power of optimism in engaging the forces of good;

■ fulfill their responsibility to society in exchange for the rights and privileges it confers;
■ work toward physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being in the knowledge that a vigorous
and active citizenship is impossible without it; and
■ act on their convictions with perseverance and courage.

JL: Who serves on the Board of
Trustees?

Interview with
Wayne Drinkward
On October 13, the faculty, staff, and
administration of OES spent the day
at a special retreat with the Board of
Trustees. This session, held at the
Franciscan Renewal Center near Lewis
and Clark College, gave everyone
involved a chance to get to know each
other and the work that each of us do.
To help share this knowledge, John
Lauerman, Director of Development,
interviewed OES Board of Trustees
President, Wayne Drinkward.

JL: Why does OES have a Board
of Trustees?
WD:The Board of Trustees is
charged with the responsibility of
managing the affairs of Oregon
Episcopal School, a nonprofit
corporation organized for the pur­
pose of operating a primary and
secondary school and offering its
students a superior education in a
Christian atmosphere.
JL: What does the Board of
Trustees do?

WD:The Board of Trustees has a
number of specific responsibilities.
Among them are determining the
School’s mission and policies,
hiring the Head of the School,
supporting the Head and reviewing
his or her performance, ensuring
effective organizational planning,
ensuring adequate financial
resources, determining and moni­
toring the School’s programs and
services, enhancing the School’s
public image, and assessing its
own performance.

WD: There are 25 members of the
Board of Trustees. Two of the
trustees are the Bishop of the
Diocese of Oregon who serves as
Chairman of the Board, and the
Rector of the Parish Church of St.
John the Baptist. The Diocesan
Convention elects nine Episcopal
Trustees who are recommended by
the Diocesan Nominating Com­
mittee. The Bishop appoints the
remaining trustees who are recom­
mended by a Committee on
Trustees. The Headmaster, the
Chair of Volunteers’ Common Link,
the President of the Alumni Associ­
ation and the Chair of the Pacific
Rim Council serve as ex-officio
trustees. Trustees are selected for
the talents they bring to the Board
and for their willingness to commit
those talents to the interest of the
School. We look at a breadth of
issues and diversity of skill sets so
we have legal representation, finan­
cial expertise, educational experi­
ence, etc. Finally, we look for a mix
of gender, race and other types of
diversity so the Board looks and
feels like our community.
JL: How long do trustees serve on
the Board?
WD: Elected or appointed trustees
serve three years terms and may
not serve more than two consecu­
tive terms.

JL: Are trustees paid for their
service?

WD:No, trustees are not paid, they
serve on a voluntary basis. In fact,
trustees are expected to provide
leadership in the area of fund rais­
ing and development. One hundred
percent of the Board contributes
each year to the OES Fund. Like­
wise, 100 percent of the Board
contributed to the most recent
capital campaign which raised
$4.5 million for the construction of
the new Middle School and the
renovation of Bishop Dagwell Hall.

JL: How is the Board structured?
WD:The Board structure includes a
Chairman who is always the Bishop,
a President, a Vice President, a
Secretary, and a Treasurer. There
is an Executive Committee of six
people that is charged with over­
seeing the work of the Board and
managing specific agendas. In
addition, there are several standing
committees that work in specific
areas to support the activities of
the Board. This year, we are experi­
menting with some smaller “mini­
boards” which will meet in alternate
months to discuss key issues relat­
ed to our Strategic Plan objectives.

JL: Are trustees the only people
who serve on committees?

WD:No. Committee membership
may include people from outside
of the Board of Trustees. These
people are chosen because they
represent expertise not represented
on the Board. Their input and rec­
ommendations as well as those of
the committee flow up to the full
Board for discussion and approval.
JL: How often does the Board
meet?
WD: Typically, the Board meets
monthly during the School year.
Committees may meet more fre­
quently.

JL: What is the role of the
Episcopal Church in the gover­
nance of the School?
WD:The Church is actively interest­
ed in seeing that the School is
managed in the spirit that respects
the Episcopal tradition, but the
Church does not determine the
curriculum or the specific nature of
how that education is delivered.
They have made specific efforts to
make OES a welcoming kind of
community for people of all faiths.

�our goals. We have a terrific student
body. Our emphasis on developing
global citizens is very exciting for
us as we implement programs for
the future.

JL: What is the trustees’ relation­
ship with parents?
WD:The trustees serve the organi­
zation as a whole rather than any
special interest group or constituen­
cy. We strive to maintain indepen­
dence and objectivity and do what
a sense of fairness, ethics, and per­
sonal integrity dictate. Many of the
trustees are parents, but they are
not members of the Board solely
by virtue of their being parents.
We do look to parents as well as
other constituents as being central
to our decisions, and they are wel­
come to attend our meetings.

JL: What is the trustees’ relation­
ship with the faculty, staff, and
administration?
WD: The Board’s mission is to work
on strategic planning and policy for
the long-term benefit of the School.
The faculty and staff, under the
direction of the administration, are
charged with the day-to-day man­
agement of the School. Our Board
meetings typically include the
Headmaster, the Heads of each of
the divisions, the Director of
Admissions, Director of Develop­
ment, and Chief Financial Officer,
so all issues that are discussed and
decisions that are made are done in
the presence of and with their full
input. We do look to them to imple­
ment policy and to deal directly
with parents and students on a
day-to-day basis.

JL: What are some of the current
issues before the Board?
WD: This year, we are looking at
several areas. We are currently
developing a Strategic Plan which
allows us to identify key issues for
the next five years and hopefully
beyond. We are updating some of
the past work and introducing some
new priorities so we can share a
common framework with parents,
students, faculty, and alumni about
what the School needs to be work­
ing on. We are also establishing
priorities for those items. Some of
the key areas in front of us are the
completion of the Master Plan,
continuing to improve faculty

compensation levels, building an
endowment that will help support
our financial plan and lessen our
dependency on tuition, improving
communication between our vari­
ous constituencies, and introducing
a higher level of understanding as
to evaluation and accountability for
delivering the product we promise.
These are long term discussions
that need to involve everyone, and
hopefully we will identify sub-issues
which we can work on to improve
the value of an OES education.

WD:My wife, Julie, and I have four
children. Daniel ‘95 and David '97
attended OES and are now in col­
lege. Our son, James, is in ninth
grade and our daughter, Anne, is in
third grade. Their OES education
has been very valuable and they
have turned out to be great people.
I want to give something back to
OES. I have about a 25 year span
of history in my direct family that
will be affected by what I give, and
I hope to be able to help improve
the kind of educational opportunity
not only for everyone who is here
now, but for future generations as
well. I thoroughly enjoy being a
part of OES and the volunteer
community. It is really an exciting
endeavor when people work
together as much as they do at
OES for the benefit of our students
and each other. I am fortunate to
be able to help.

JL: What lies ahead?
WD: I believe the School is in the
best condition it has ever been in.
We are fully enrolled and we are
doing a good job of delivering a
quality education to our students.
The educational world in general,
however, has a number of con­
cerns that will inevitably affect us.
We see these concerns in the pub­
lic sector and in a number of areas
around us in which people want to
understand and redefine the role of
education. We are also seeing
increased competition from other
types of independent schools in
our vicinity. The world around us is
changing and we need to under­
stand this and adjust accordingly.
We are excited about moving into
our second year with Charlie
Bergman as Headmaster and help­
ing to form long-term relationships
with the administration, faculty and
staff that will help us accomplish

espite its violent and deadly
roots the modern and safe

sport of fencing is gaining populari­
ty in the United States, especially at
Oregon Episcopal School.
Colleen Grace Olney was the OES
fencing coach from 1971 until her
untimely death in 1995. During her
years at OES she worked tirelessly
to share the sport she loved with as
many young athletes as possible.
The OES fencing facility at SPARC
was named in her honor in June
1995. Salle Olney (/a salle is French
for “room”) is one of the finest fenc­
ing facilities in the Northwest and
will host the Junior Olympic Qualify­
ing Meet this coming December.

Following the death of Colleen
Olney, Ed Korfanty assumed lead­
ership of the fencing program at
OES. Since 1993, Ed has been the
Head Fencing Master of the Oregon
Fencing Alliance, the Oregon Divi­
sion of the United States Fencing
Association, a role that he contin­
ues today. Before coming to
Oregon, Ed was the assistant
fencing coach at the University
of Notre Dame and coach of the
Indiana Fencing Academy. An
exciting aspect of coaching for Ed
is introducing the sport to young
athletes. “In the United States it is
hard to get kids. Every sport pulls
them—soccer, baseball, football—
so I start working with the kids
when they are young.”

Building on the already strong,
established program, Ed has con­
tinued to increase the popularity
of fencing at the School. There are
now nearly 40 students involved in
the program. Sixth grader Phillip
Koop has been with the program
for five years and has seen the
growth. “I used to be the only
fencer in my age group. Now
there are more.”
OREGON

A Sixth grader Phillip Koop practices his epee while Head Fencing Coach Ed
Korfanty watches his technique.
Seventh grader Patrick Ghattas
has been fencing sabre for four
years and has learned a great deal
from the experience. He credits his
coach with helping him to grow.
When asked what he has learned,
Patrick responds, “how to make
your opponent short, and when you
lose to go up and shake their hand.
Ed taught me that."
OES parent and fencing club
president Grant Farr confirms this
aspect of the sport. “Despite
fencing’s bloody roots, it teaches
honor and the rules of decorum.
It is also an unusual sport so it
fosters a sense of camaraderie and
a lot of pride.” Another exciting
thing about the OES fencing pro­

14

gram for Grant is that OES has so
many athletes who are ranked at
all age and skill levels.
This past July, The United States
Fencing Association held its
National Championships in Santa
Clara, California. Approximately
1,350 fencers competed in 68
events ranging from Under-10 to
Veterans and Wheelchair. Of the 41
states sending athletes to the
event, Oregon had the fourth
largest contingent with 59 fencers.

Ed was also awarded the Coach
of the Year Award for the Western
Region at the Summer Nationals
in Santa Clara. This award, given
by the U.S. Fencing Coaches Asso­
ciation, recognizes the breadth and
depth of his coaching career, his
achievements in coaching elite
fencers, and in promoting fencing
in his community. OES Junior Seth
Kelsey heartily endorses this recog­
nition. “My coach is the greatest in
the world!"

part of this past summer training in
Hungary with the United States
epee team. More than 300 athletes
from around the world had the
opportunity to meet and practice
their skills. He also finds that the
discipline of fencing helps him in
many situations. “The mental
aspect of the sport is at least 10
times much more important than
the physical. You can prepare for
a match all you want, but if your
mind isn’t in the game you can go
down in the first round. Everything
is like that.”
Once students graduate from OES
there are many opportunities for
them to use their skills. Seth hopes
to go to the Olympics and is very
matter-of-fact about the possibility.
“The opportunity is there. I just
have to seize it. The average age
of the mens’ epee team is about
30, so I have time. I am just at the
beginning of my career." Two other
examples of post-OES fencing
success are alumnae Claudette de
Bruin '92 and her sister Monique
‘95. Both received full-ride athletic
scholarships. Claudette attended
Notre Dame where she received a
degree in Mathematics and
Monique is currently studying at
Stanford University.

Seth has been fencing epee for
the past six years. He really enjoys
the opportunities for travel and
meeting new people that fencing
provides. For example, Seth spent

KNOW YOUR
WEAPON
The modern sport of fencing has
three different weapons. Each
weapon has a different method
of scoring touches and its own
strategy for offense and defense.

The foil is the modern version
of the court sword. A foil is very
light and about 35 inches long.
Touches with a foil are scored
only with the point on the trunk
of the body.
The epee is the same length as
a foil, but heavier. It also has a
larger hand guard and a more
rigid blade. Like the foil, touches
are scored only with the point,
but can be landed anywhere on
the body.
The sabre, similar in size and
weight to an epee, is a weapon
for cutting and thrusting—a
modern version of the slashing
cavalry sabre. The guard on a
sabre curves around the hand
to protect the knuckles.
Touches are scored any place
on the body above the waist.

HELEN CURTIS HYDE (1910 - 1997)
T T777”hen she graduated from St. Helens Hall in 1929, Helen Curtis
1/1/ Hyde “willed” to one of her junior classmates her “ability to
F F finish tests with lightning speed.” It was also predicted in her
Delphic Yearbook that one day Helen would be “touring the country with
Fanchon and Marco Stage Revues...as the chief dancer in the adagio
group.” Although never a performer, Helen continued with post graduate
classes at the Hall, worked at the English Hat Shop, cared for her mother
and aunt, and became involved with the Episcopal Church and the
Rosicrucian Order AMORC. And, while it is not known whether her friend
improved upon her test timing, Helen later created another will which is
certain to benefit many OES students.
Helen was known to plan for everything. Whether it was organizing her
sixtieth class reunion or preparing for potential disasters, Helen was ready.
The final proof of her diligence was evidenced in her estate plans. In
December, 1996, OES was informed that Helen had named the school
as a beneficiary in her will. Helen died on July 3, 1997. From her modest
estate, OES will receive approximately $300,000 for an “endowed scholar­
ship for deserving students.” This remarkable gift is a tribute not only
to the “Hall,” but to Helen, who thoughtfully and generously planned for
the future.

LOG ON TO EDUCATION..
GIVE TO THE
The 1997-98 OES Fund is off to a
fantastic start. Through the support
and dedication of alumni, parents,
past parents, grandparents, faculty
and staff, and friends of OES, the
goal of $375,000 will be easily
achieved.

The theme for this year’s OES Fund
is Log on to Education, celebrat­
ing technology’s growing role in an
OES student’s education. Many
members of the OES community
may remember when a typewriter
or calculator was a novelty in the
classroom. Today at the School,
students begin working on comput­
ers in the Lower School, and con­
tinue as they process through the
Upper School, where computer use
is as common as books are in the
classroom. To recognize this
importance, the OES Fund has
established a web site that
k
will keep the OES community abreast on the Fund’s
progress throughout

OES FUND
the year. You can visit the site at
http://www.oes.edu/give/OESFund.
The OES Fund helps Oregon
Episcopal School continue to be
financially strong. A student’s
tuition only covers 77% of the cost
involved with an education at the
School. The OES Fund helps to
bridge this gap. Excellent teachers,
small classes, and individual atten­
tion are just a few things OES is
able to provide for its students with
the support of the Fund.
When you support the OES Fund
you are helping to ensure that
students today are able to not
only experience what alumni of
the School fondly remember, but
also to move ahead and become
a part of OES’ history. There are
various ways in which you can
make a contribution to the
OES Fund. By using the
attached envelope you
can make a donation by check,

cash, or credit card. Or you may
want to consider making a gift
using appreciated stock. This
option of giving has grown in popu­
larity because the benefits to the
donor are three-fold: contributions
to OES are 100% tax deductible,
capital gains taxes can be avoided,
and, of course, you are helping
OES do what it does best—provide
an exceptional educational experi­
ence for its students.

The OES Fund is the only program
that requires the collaboration of
all of the School’s constituents to
be successful and reach its goal.

HEADMASTER’S REPORT

Dear Friends,

“¥"t’s a pleasure and an honor to
I thank the entire OES community
JLfor its wonderful generosity in
making 1996/97 another great
fundraising year. This year was my
first opportunity to observe closely
the extraordinary energy and dedica­
tion of die many individuals who
bring such success to our develop­
ment efforts. And as I review the
many marvelous impressions of my
first year as headmaster, the affection
for the School manifested by those
individuals has to rank among the
most moving and profound.

A few examples immediately come to
mind. First, it is no exaggeration to say
that OES has a team of volunteers that
is second to none in its sheer energy
and creativity, and this is nowhere
more evident than in their work with
our annual Auction. The Auction is a
stupendous production by any mea­
sure, and its success is a tribute to our
volunteers’ organization and vision.
Trustees, too, deserve mention for
their generosity and their vision in
ensuring the School has an endow­
ment big enough to provide a suffi­
cient financial base to serve OES well
into die future. And a special mention
goes to John Lauerman and his team
of professionals in our development
office who guided our development
efforts through the year and have
mapped clearly our needs and strate­
gies for the future. Finally, I would be
remiss if I failed to mention the many
donors whose generosity has been
the key to achieving our critical fund
raising goals.

This year was a “trial run” for our
new Middle School building, and I am
pleased to report that it has surpassed
all our expectations. It is simply a
marvelous building in which our fac­
ulty can now cany out their essential
work as educators, freed from the
many restraints with which they had
to live in the past. And as we begin
the 1997/98 school year, I am confi­
dent that the renovated Bishop
Dagwell Hall will bring a new energy
and vitality to the School’s curriculum
in the arts. To all of the donors who
made these two new buildings possi­
ble, it is my very great pleasure to say
“thank you” once again.

I want to take this opportunity to
thank all of the volunteers who dedi­
cated their time to the School’s vari­
ous fundraising efforts. Liza Lilley ‘74
is to be commended for her gallant
efforts heading up the 1996-97 OES
Fund volunteers, raising more than
$357,000 toward our operating ex­
penses. Judy Jensen and her corps of
volunteers set the stage for the “Lights!
Camera! Auction!", securing $130,000
to be used for faculty and staff devel­
opment and the construction of a
cover for the sport court behind the
new Middle School building.

Other thanks are due to two individu­
als who have spent the past few years
devoting their time to leading the OES
community. John von Schlegell step­
ped down this summer as President
of the Board of Trustees, after serving
with energy, creativity, and much
good humor for two years. I owe a
special thanks to John for his many
efforts to ensure a smooth transition
as my family and I began our new
lives as part of the OES community
last year. Wayne Drinkward has taken
over the helm, and has already begun
to address the challenges the job of
Board President entails.

Additional thanks go to Jack McCann.
Jr. ‘84 whose term as President of the
Alumni Association ended in June.
His commitment not only to OES
alumni, but also to the St. Helens
Hall, Junior College, and Bishop
Dagwell Hall alumni was far-reaching.
Jack’s strong leadership and
affection for OES provided a
vision for the Alumni
Association, and allows the
new President, Max Miller ‘74,
to easily step into place.
My first year at OES has been a won­
derful adventure, and I feel honored
to be in the company of a superbly
talented group of educators and pro­
fessionals. I look forward with great
excitement to what lies ahead, and to
working with the entire community in
carrying out OES’s marvelous mission
as a nurturer and shaper of the “citi­
zens for good” who will lead us into
the next century.
Sincerely,

Charles K. Bergman
Headmaster

�REPORT FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD

Dear Family and Friends of OES:

OREGON EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL
Board of Trustees
1996-97

TT f you serve long enough in a
| volunteer capacity at a school
JL like OES, it is possible to discern
trends and a little of where we are
on the continuum of the School’s
128 year history. Those of you who
donate your time, money, and loyalty
to OES are links in a chain—a chain
that grows longer and stronger each
year.

Certain "links” in our chain need to
be acknowledged in particular: Suzie
Gundle, who headed Common Link;
Liza Lilley 74, OES Fund Chair; Judy
Jensen, who ran our fantastic auction;
and Jack McCann ‘84, who represent­
ed the longest segment of our history
as Alumni President. New volunteers
will lake their places, each adding
their own style to the job, doing their
part, continuing the trend.
I have been fortunate to serve as
Board President with a Board of
T Trustees which is excellent and getting better every year. In particular,
H I’d personally like to thank Wayne
Drinkward (my successor), Chris
Kitchel, Sheryl Acheson, Bishop
JJ Ladehoff, and Elisabeth Lyon (my
predecessor). These trustees, and
many others, kept me on course.
This has not always been easy!

LIGHTS!
CAMERA!
AUCTION!

The money raised by the
1997 OES Auction is the
result of incredible commit­
ment from our community.
Thank you to Mary
McDonald-Lewis for creat­
ing our theme which kept
us happily brainstorming.
Thanks to Bob Greenberg
who seemed to reside in
the auction office while
updating our new comput­
er system. A special thank
you to Hal Phillips for cre­
ating magic with his hightech slide show. (And to
the Upper School A Capella
choir with their amazing
talents.) Also, thanks to the
continuous support of the
OES Development Office
and many other faculty and
staff members. Thanks to
Pat Karamanos for her wis­
dom and patience. And
finally, thanks to the literal
cast of thousands listed in
these pages who, through
hard work and donations,
made the Lights! Camera!
Auction! a success.

Alumni Association
President’s Corner
Dear Alumni:
If you are reading this issue of the
Belltower, the Alumni Board is
achieving one of its goals. If you
are reading the Belltower for the
first time in a long time, we are
achieving two of our goals. If you
are reading this issue of the
Belltower and having some fond
memory of a fall day at St. Helens
Hall, Bishop Dagwell Hall, or OES,
or of talking with a fellow alum or
former teacher, we are really regis­
tering success. “Not very lofty
goals,” you say. Not true. Our goals
are actually simple, but quite lofty.
We want to continue to reach you.
We want to reach again those we
may have temporarily lost. When
we reach you, we want to stimulate
your curiosity about other alumni
and about the school. Ideally, we
would like to get you on campus
and get you involved with some­
thing at the school. Those are our
goals. They may sound simple.
They aren’t all easy, though. There
are a lot of us, and we are spread
over multiple locations, multiple
decades, multiple schools, and
multiple campuses.

There are many vehicles for your
involvement. We just had the alum­
ni soccer tournament. The late-80’s
team won. Want to play next year?
There is also three-on-three bas­
ketball coming up. Would you like
to be a mentor to a recent grad?
Would you like to talk to students
about your career or theirs? Do you
want to have a reunion? Do you
want to attend an alumni function
at a local brew pub or art gallery?
How about attending an alumni
reception in New York, or maybe
you would like to host one in your
home town? You could come to
Founders’ Day and see one of the
truly great among us become an
officially "distinguished” alum. You
can attend the auction. You could
just come stroll around campus
and talk to a long time friend like
Father Roy, David Streight, or a
new comer like Sarah Markuson or
Wendell Lee. You could come to an
Alumni Board meeting. The next
one is December 9.
Our mission is to keep you
informed about these opportunities,
create more opportunities for you,
and get more of you involved. As
C.R. Duffie ‘71 says at every Alumni
Board meeting, “We don’t want any
of you to think that you only hear
from us when we are asking for
money.”

Sincerely,

�While he was a MBA student, Brent
wrote his thesis on commercial
banking. This proved to be a very
marketable area of specialization.
“With everything becoming increas­
ingly global, you are always looking
at odier banking systems to learn

Alumni Profile:
Brent Erensel ‘74

When Brent Erensel ‘74 first came
to Bishop Dagwell Hall in seventh
grade as a dorm student, he most
likely didn't imagine that he would
one day be working as an interna­
tional banking analyst in New York
City. Currently the Director and
Senior Latin Banking Analyst at
USB Securities, a subsidiary of the
Union Bank of Switzerland, Brent
states that “no one wakes up one
day wanting to be a banking ana­
lyst." However, “with the emergence
of free markets and democracy,
and elected officials realizing the
key to election is economic develop­
ment. most democratic governments
embrace foreign capital which
typically creates job growth. At
die center of this economic activity
is banking.”

and grow. At any given time, some­
where there is a banking crisis." It
is through studying the history7 of
the United States’ banking crisis of
1950, the modernization of U.S.
banking in die 1970s, and the moni­
toring of other countries' banking
systems that he is uniquely prepared
to analyze Latin American banking
in the 1990s.

order to efficiently and safely
circulate currency. “Prior to our
generation, banks required an air
of solidity—huge pillars with marble
and vaults. Now it's more about
convenience: plastic, access cards
to cash and financing."

Although he is graduate of Lawrence
University of Wisconsin with a
degree in Biology7 and received an
MBA from New York University
Graduate School of Business, some
of his most important learning
occurred at Oregon Episcopal
School. “At OES, I was taught how
to apply7 problem sets and look for
differences and similarities. This is
a skill I use every7 day." The School
also provided Brent with other
learning points. “Thanks to the
dorm masters. I learned the essential
escape and invasion technique,
and how to light a cigarette in a
rain storm at night without revealing
my position.” Today Brent continues
to be a student, studying Spanish,
which he describes as the language
of economics.
Brent and his w’ife Nina have three
children, Pearce, Hunter, and Esme.
They look forward to hosting the
New York Alumni Reception at their

Alumni Profile:
Muriel Gabriel Heltzel ‘30
As part of the 1997 Reunion Weekend
luncheon, Muriel Gabriel Heltzel, a
1930 graduate of St. Helens Hall, was
recognized for her service as President
of the Alumnae of St. Helens Hall and
as an OES Board Member. She gave
the following speech.

This little talk was written many
years ago for the Parent's Club ofSt.
Helens Hall, so it s somewhat dated,
at least the start of it is. The rest of it
is just as true now as it was then.
When Gertrude Faris (she was the
Head Mistress at that time) asked me
to speak tonight. I said, “You mean
three minutes?" And she said, “Oh
no—twenty." I told her I was strictly
a three minute speaker, but I would
try to stretch it to 3 1/2 minutes. I
did take a public speaking class
when we were living in Washington,
DC. but if the professor from the
University of Maryland could see me
now. reading my speech. 1 would
have flunked the course. Lady Bird
Johnson was in my class of 25 for a
period of 12 weeks. I guess she was
learning how to make a speech as
the wife of the President of the
United Stales, and I was learning
how to make a three and a half
minute speech to the Parent s Club
of St. Helens Hall.
Lady Bird 's name was great to drop
in 1966- rather passe in 1997.

Gertrude Faris suggested that I say
something about what St. Helens
Hall meant to me. I should amend
that statement and say what St.
Helens Hall still means to me.
i

To go back a few years, more than I
like to think about, my modier took
a look at her long-legged, tom-boy
daughter who did not like to study,
and said to herself, “What that girl
needs is more couth.”
OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

So mother made a date with Sister
Superior and we arrived at the por­
tals of the “Hall,” me with fear and
trepidation. We were ushered into
the beautiful parlor, and Sister
Superior was so charming that I
relaxed completely to the extent that
when she said something nice about
my lady-like, English-born mother, I
said, “Oh yes, my mother is a good
sport!" Well, that was the beginning,
albeit, not much of one. However,
when we told her I was Episcopal­
ian. she said, “Oh, one of our very
own girls."

One of the stained glass windows is
in the chapel on the campus, as is
the large bell that came around the
Hom and rings for Oregon Episcopal
School. Woe to the girl who giggled
in chapel when Sister Katherine
Angela s long fingers were coaxing
music out of the wheezy old organ.

I'm sure all alumnae will remember
the motto that hung over the proc­
tor's desk in the study, all done in
large old English printing “Dare to
be true, nothing can need a lie, the
fault that needs it most grows two
thereby.”

Gertrude was Miss Houk then, and
only a few years older than I She
drilled English into my head so that
I can still remember about nomina­
tive and objective cases. She also
taught Art History, and to this day,
I can probably still name a Doric,
Ionic, or Corinthian column.
The teachers did the academics, and
then there was the body building
department. There were horseback
rides at Nicol's Riding Academy,
where the campus is now located,
and the one tennis court. One of my
proudest moments was when Sister
Superior presented me with a little
silver cup for winning a tennis
match. The silver peeled off after a
couple of years, but 1 still cherish it.
The mainstay for the body beautiful
was the basketball court. You
played basketball, or else! It was an
open shed with just a roof and no
sides. Believe me, you kept moving
to keep warm. Well, I fancied myself
quite a player, always “center”
because I was so tall. This was just
before bobby socks and shorts; we
wore those awful lisle hose dial
bagged at the knees and ankles, and
large bloomers.
A few years ago, my husband pul
up a basketball hoop for our daugh­
ter and three sons. I was the first
one out saying, “Now, this is how
you do it, children," shooting for the
basket, and feeling pretty smug.
About that time, my husband came
out and said, “Look out boys, here
comes one of St. Helens Hall's origi­
nal bloomer girls." Believe me that
took the starch right out of my
bloo-I mean middy blouse.

The spiritual, ethical, and moral
departments were in the delicate
hands of, as my father used to call
them, the “little sisters." They saw
we were all blue veiled and lined up
for worship every morning. Their
ambiance permeated the atmosphere
of the quiet, peaceful chapel, from
the kneeling benches to the red
sanctuary light that mesmerized me.

▲ Muriel Gabriel Heltzel ‘30 speaks
about her experiences at St. Helens
Hall during the 1997 Reunion
Weekend Luncheon.
1 wonder how many St. Helens Hall
girls have turned out to be tireless
workers in their churches. I am sure
it can be traced to early training by
the Sisters and for the force of good
it represents in the community.

Well, the teachers and the Sisters
brain-washed, molded, scolded,
educated, loved, and understood us,
and in a few years’ time, a reason­
able facsimile of what young ladies
should be marched up the aisle of
Trinity Church to the tune of
“Ancient of Days.” We were in our
white robes and mortar boards,
clasping large bouquets.

The school's motto was, “that our
daughters may be as the polished
corners of the temple.’’ They had
polished the corners the best they
could with the material they had,
and it was up to us to build our
lives on the foundation they had
given us.

Dear Classmates,
Sorry to miss you all at the reunion.
I promise to show for the 35th. This
spring was very busy. Among the
normal events and leaching obliga­
tions, I was a chaperone for our
eighth grade s class trip to Jamaica,
spent two weeks camping in
California with the sixth and seventh
grade classes, and came to Portland
two weeks before the reunion for a
family celebration of birthdays—my
dad’s 80th and my daughters 25th.
(They were born on the same day!)
The reunion weekend is always dif­
ficult for me because it falls on the
weekend before our school lets out
and there is always a lot of prepara­
tion for those good-bye events at
school. I’d love letters or calls to
hear how you are doing and what
you all did at the reunion.

Chris DeBenedetti ‘92
OES Alumnus receives Watson
Fellowship

Chris DeBenedetti ‘92 has
watched with keen interest in
recent years as the centuriesold an of brewing beer has
undergone a renaissance of
almost staggering proportions
in the United States. More than
700 breweries, micro-breweries,
and brewpubs, many of them
based in Portland, have sprung
to life around the country.

Debenedetti, who graduated
with a degree in English from
Whitman College in 1996,
began his Watson studies in
Niger and other West African
countries where sorghum and
millet beers are brewed in a
manner similar to that which
was used in Mesopotamia thou­
sands of years before the birth
of Christ. He then traveled to
Europe, stopping in the United
Kingdom, where wood caskconditioned ale breweries dot
the isles; Belgium, where brew­
eries are operated in secretive
monasteries by cloistered
monks; and Germany and
Bavaria, from which American
brewing traditions are primarily
derived, and where beer and
brewing are staples of life for
everyone.

Now back in the Portland area.
DeBenedetti describes his trav­
els as an opportunity of a life­
time, and encourages all OES
students to look for colleges
which offer the chance to apply
to the Watson Fellowship
Program. Currently, he is com­
pleting liis final report for the
Watson Foundation and look­
ing for a job in the arts.

DeBenedetti recently returned
from a 12-month trek from
West Africa to Europe to study
a variety of ancient, traditional
brewing techniques. His over­
seas study project was chosen
for funding by the Thomas J.
Watson Fellowship Program.
More than 1,000 graduating
seniors competed for sixty 1996
Watson Fellowships. Recipients
were chosen on the basis of
character, leadership potential,
willingness to immerse them­
selves in new cultures, and the
creativity and personal signifi­
cance of their proposed pro­
jects. The Watson program is
designed to give individuals the
opportunity to pursue their
passions. Established by the
family of IBM founder Thomas
J. Watson in 1968, eligibility to
apply for the fellowship is lim­
ited to graduates of a select
group of about sixty small lib­
eral arts colleges.

DeBenedetti focused on
Africa's and Europe’s small, tra­
ditional brewers, those who
make only enough beer for a
household or a local communi­
ty. “My closest attention in each
place was on the traditional
brewing techniques, which to
some extent have been sup­
planted by technology. The
largest breweries in Europe and
Africa have astounding produc­
tion levels that span the globe.
They are a far cry from the
ancient brewers who produced
only enough beer for the
household, as the female
“brewsters” of Bavaria tradition­
ally did—or even for the local
community, as thousands of
tiny breweries have and contin­
ue to do throughout all of
Wales, for instance. Those are
the brewers which interested
me the most—those who
continue to craft brews from
generations-old recipes and

“Brewing is a passion and way
of life for a great many people
all over the world today,”
DeBenedetti states. "It is an art
form, a social uniter, a medium
for cultural differentiation and
beneficial to science. And it has
become a major part of the cul­
ture in which I was raised in
the Pacific Northwest.” His
study included analysis of sev­
eral questions, such as the
ways in which brewing perpet­
uates social roles, and the
nature of the relationship
between religion and brewing.
He notes that while the religion
of Islam prohibits the use of
alcohol in the former countries
of Mesopotamia, Christian
monasteries throughout France
and Belgium have brewed
some of the world's finest beers
for centuries.

A Letter from
the Head of School

Dear Friends,
Founded in the years following our
Civil War, Oregon Episcopal School has
witnessed 132 years of the history of the
United Slates and the world. During all
those years, teachers and students have
struggled to make sense of world events,
while at the same time laying a firm
foundation of knowledge, skills, and
judgment to provide students with the
ability to participate in the affairs of the
world to come. Thus, in December of 1941, students were
struggling to absorb and understand the onset of war, to learn
its causes, and to make sense of the fact that a beloved fellow
student, a girl from Japan, had just become “the enemy.”
The young women from St. Helen’s Hall were taught that
their minds and hearts were needed in the world. The
Sisters of St. John Baptist, in particular, recognized and cele­
brated the talents and commitments of the students they
taught, thus establishing a rich tradition of intellectual
achievement combined with civic responsibility. Our alumni
speak with one voice when they describe the legacy of their
years at St. Helen’s Hall, Bishop Dagwell Hall, and OES.
We are now facing a lime in our history when it is of
central importance that our students develop wisdom and a
commitment to being global citizens. The complexity of the
challenges facing our leaders in the light of September 11 th,
here in the United Stales and around the world, informs our
work here al OES as well. Now, more than ever, our interna­
tional focus will help our students to understand the
difficult choices our country faces.
Our program at school is designed to give our children a
developmentally appropriate level of awareness and concern
about current events. Thus, our youngest students, who are
only four years old, learn how to be good citizens of their
classroom. Older students in Lower School focus on projects
of material aids for the homeless in Portland and for chil­
dren in need around the world. Middle Schoolers learn

about global issues, and their service pro­
jects involve traveling around Portland to
offer services to a wide range of people
through local agencies. Upper Schoolers
have the benefit of studying with our res­
idential students from around the world,
as well as classes and activities that directly
address the major issues of the day.
The difference between the challenges
OES has always faced in shaping respon­
sible citizens, and the challenges we face today, have largely
to do with the increasing sophistication of the media and its
central focus on the violent occurrences of September 11 th
and since. It is now impossible to protect our young children
from the violent images of destruction, the understanding of
the death toll on the East Coast or of extreme poverty of
Afghanistan and other nations around the world. The
danger is that our children absorb these images before they
have the context or sophistication to understand them, or
the sense that something can be done to help or change a
situation.
Helping our students to become global citizens means
maintaining a balance between a sense of security in family
and school and a growing understanding of the world and
its problems. The balancing act is often a difficult one.
Together we must develop strong and confident graduates,
who are neither overwhelmed by the challenges before them
nor unwilling to use their talents for the greater good of our
country and our world. Rather, we strive together to help
our children become citizens of the world, wise and skilled
in their ability to build community wherever they are.

THE OES COMMUNITY RESPONDS
On the morning of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, The
Reverend LouAnn Pickering says she was up earlier than
usual when she turned on the television and learned of the
events unfolding on the East Coast. Within minutes, she
received a call from Head of School Dulany Bennett, and
they began talking about what was happening and how the
school could best serve the needs of its students.
These initial conversations also involved Cindy McEnroe,
Middle School counselor and coordinator of Counseling
Services. According to Cindy, all of the divisions needed to
“think on their feel” and draw upon the strength of the OES
community in order to cooperate and collaborate in devel­
oping a plan of action for the day.
Their goal was to maintain as much of the school day
routine as possible, while creating an environment where
children would feel safe and secure. They also wanted to
provide students with information to help them understand
what had happened, and with options and resources in order
for the students to care for themselves and each other. With
a rough blueprint on how to proceed, the school day began.

Gold spoke to the children, reassuring them that they were
safe and that the school would take care of them until they
returned home. Then, Rev. Pickering opened the floor to the
students to allow them to speak out, sharing their concerns
and questions, along with their confusion, fright, worry,
sadness and anger.
PROVIDING CHOICES

As students began to arrive in the Middle and Upper
Schools, the divisions found some students knew of the
events in New York City and Washington, D.C., while
others were unaware of what had transpired. At the
morning gatherings, faculty members explained the tragedy
that was unfolding, answering questions as best as they
could. In addition, all students were presented with options
for their school day. Televisions remained on in the Upper
School library and the Middle School Endeavour Commons,
allowing students to watch the news reports accompanied
by adults who offered additional perspective. Other students
returned to class and their normal routines, with each class­
room teacher prepared to talk further with students as
needed. Students could also choose to talk with a counselor,
chaplain or other adult. Some chose to walk the OES
labyrinth. Whatever choice they made, students were asked
to honor the diverse groups and beliefs represented by the
student body, and to be loving and supportive to one
another in this time of need.

MAINTAINING THE DAILY ROUTINE

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

For the Lower School, maintaining the daily routine
meant starting Tuesday with a regularly scheduled chapel
service. As the bell rang to call the children to the morning
chapel, Rev. Pickering noticed others joining with them.
Parishioners, faculty, staff and parents came also, silting in
the back or with their children. Both Dr. Bennett and Mrs.

came and walked. They held each other. They sat in the
center. They prayed.
One teacher said, “The labyrinth was like a rock in a sea
of chaos.” In response to a great desire to do something,
Shelley explains, “The ancient path of the labyrinth allowed
individuals, both young and old, to do two very simple, yet
profound things: people could walk and they could pray.”

Throughout the day. Lower School students also had
opportunities to express their fears, sadness and anger,
while wrapped in the security of the OES community. First
grade teacher Christine O’Toole appreciated this attention
to caring for the children. “I was very grateful that Dulany
and Sidney made both human and spiritual resources avail­
able to us.”

had experienced in his five years as a patrol officer.
Keith shared his anger and frustration with not being able
to help the individuals trapped in the twin lowers. He
praised the heroic efforts of his co-workers and other emer­
gency personnel who lost their lives as the lowers collapsed.
He thanked those who provided food, water, equipment and
resources to himself and others desperately searching for
survivors. He answered questions from students wanting to
know more, and Keith asked that his story be passed along
so others would fully understand the extent of the devasta­
tion and destruction.
RECOGNIZING OUR EFFORTS

▲ NYPD Officer Keith Chhe (right) and a coworker pause briefly
from their search and rescue work at the World Trade Center.

The school’s response has lasted longer than a day, a week
or a month, and has gone beyond the confines of the
campus. As we continue to carry prayers in our hearts for
those who suffered from the tragic losses, we have also acted
upon those thoughts and emotions. The entire OES commu­
nity has contributed in a variety of ways—from giving blood
to fundraising, reflecting the very best of what the OES com­
munity represents.
Upper School teacher Hope Stevens expressed the need to
acknowledge the efforts of all, and especially of the faculty
and staff who have continued to do their jobs since
September 11, making life as normal as possible for students
regardless of the impact of events on themselves. “We arc all
doing our jobs and would not do otherwise, but it does lake
its loll.”
The events of September 11, 2001 have taken a loll on all
of the country. Fortunately, the strength of the OES commu­
nity has allowed the school to take care of its own and to
extend a hand of comfort to those impacted, both near and
far. As Officer Keith Chhe remarked in closing his presenta­
tion, “In one way or another, we are all affected by this.” ■

large...it is the thought and gesture that counts.” Those who
did contribute added their words of sympathy and support
to cards to be sent to the appropriate departments in New
York City.
Sue acknowledged the many efforts and options to
actively respond to the day’s events. “While this (establish­
ing the fund) is the OES community’s gesture to help in a
positive way, this is not the only way to contribute. There
are many great needs in New York City. Many of us are
doing a variety of projects, and whatever we do to help is a
blessed gift received.” She also asked, “Please continue to
keep those who are in the midst of conflict or suffering in
your prayers.”
OPENING OUR DOORS

One of those individuals in the prayers of the OES com­
munity is Kowa “Keith” Chhe, a family friend of Middle
School parent Jill Scheer. On the afternoon of October 4, a
little over three weeks after that infamous day of terror, a
small group of Upper School students, faculty and staff
members gathered in a classroom to listen to Keith’s story of
his firsthand experience at the World Trade Center.
Keith, a police officer with the New York Police
Department, had spent three weeks digging through the
rubble of the World Trade Center, at limes almost non-stop,
looking for survivors, and as lime elapsed looking for
bodies. He had come to Oregon in order to find relief,
however temporary, from the rescue work which left him
both physically and emotionally tired.
Despite the freshness of the memories and the loss he
experienced, Keith shared his recollections and perspectives
on this painful event with the small, quiet audience. He
described how the day’s events unfolded for him, starting
with the time he signed off his weekly shift al 8:15 a.m. on the
morning of September 11. He had been working out of the
police headquarters, located only a few blocks from the World
Trade Center. What he thought was the start of his “weekend,”
turned out to be a nightmare going beyond anything else he

Adding On

Second grade students wrapped up their study of struc­
tures and architecture with a first-hand look at the
architectural profession. OES parents and architects Susan
and Stuart Emmons (William ’12) brought their design firm
to the Lower School library, allowing the children lo inspect
building models and to learn how a project is designed from
start to finish.

Eighth graders assisted with additions to the Middle
School play structure as part of their service activities
during Leadership Days this fall. With assistance from Jon
von Behren, director of Buildings and Grounds, the stu­
dents raised the safety rails that border the raised structure,
making it a safer spot for hanging out. Jon commended the
advisory group on their willingness to contribute to the
construction: “It was a lot of fun lo work on a hands-on
building project with the kids—they did a great job!”

Capturing the Human Spirit in Masks
Each year the eighth grade GALA class reads The Lord of
the Flies by William Golding. Students create masks to rep­
resent a character from the book, a natural element or a
selected theme such as compassion, wisdom or courage.
The students use the mask in a monologue to speak directly
to the boys in the book, especially in regard to resisting the
temptation toward violence. According to teacher Steve
Brennan, “The focus of this effort is on how to bring the
best qualities of the human spirit to the forefront.”

Trick or Treat for UNICEF
“Trick or treat for UNICEF” was the message shared by
students from Mrs. Hunger's fifth grade class during a
recent chapel service. The children dressed in Halloween
costumes presented a skit to other Lower School students,
reminding them of the opportunity to raise funds for
UNICEF while trick-or-treating on Halloween night. Money
raised this year will be used to assist children in Afghanistan.

Coming Full Circle
in the Same House
hen the 71st session of the Oregon legislature was
called to order on January 8, 2001, two individuals
with lies to Oregon Episcopal School stood among the 60
members of the House of Representatives wailing to be
sworn into office. One was Representative Ben Westlund of
Bend, and the other was Representative Elizabeth “Betsy”
Johnson of Scappoose.
Ben graduated from Bishop Dagwell Hall in 1968, one of
10 young men who made up the graduating class that year.
During his lime at BDH. Ben had played on the varsity soccer
team, ran on the track team, belonged to both the ski and
rifle clubs, and was a dorm monitor. He also had the honor
of being elected to the position of student body president.
Betsy, a 1969 graduate of St. Helen’s Hall, also had an
active student life. As one of the 18 young women who
made up the 1969 graduating class, Betsy’s involvement
included everything from the Altar Guild and Foreign
Affiliations, to the National Honor Society and the Modern
Dance Club. And like Ben, Betsy also had the honor of being
elected to the position of student body president.
At the time that Ben and Betsy attended BDH and SHH,
the two schools shared the current OES campus, although
most activities were kept separate. According to Ben and
Betsy, the students ate together in the cafeteria, and possibly
shared a class or two. For the most part, however, the

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

faculty and staff attempted to keep the boys and girls apart.
Despite this “corralling” by teachers and administrators, Ben
and Betsy admit that it was hard to keep the two groups sep­
arated. Therefore, it was inevitable that Ben and Betsy would
know each other as students. However, they had no idea
that the roads that brought them to BDH and SHH, and then
led them away in opposite directions after graduation,
would cross again in the Oregon legislature earlier this year
FOLLOWING HER FAMILY'S LEAD

When you learn about Betsy’s politically active family, it
isn’t surprising the path she look after leaving SHH would
lead her to the state legislature. Betsy’s father, Sam Johnson,
was a seven-term member of the Oregon State Legislature
and the mayor of Redmond, OR. Her mother, Becky, was
appointed by four governors to serve on various state-level
education boards and other commissions.
When Betsy graduated from SHH, she was very focused
on going to college, although the thought of a political life
was not out of the question. After graduating from Carleton
College and then the Northwestern School of Law al Lewis
and Clark College, Betsy went on to establish Transwestern
Helicopters, Inc., a helicopter company which she owned
and operated for almost 20 years.
During this time, Betsy followed her parents’ footsteps in

serving the community in a variety of capacities. She has had
the privilege of serving as a board member for numerous
non-profit organizations, including Docrnbecher Children’s
Hospital, Oregon Public Broadcasting, Oregon Health
Sciences Foundation, and the Portland branch of the Federal
Reserve Bank. In 1993, Betsy was appointed to manage the
State Aeronautics Division of the Oregon Department of
Transportation, a position she held until 1998, when she
became vice president for legislative affairs for the Oregon
Pilots Association.
Betsy’s involvement in and commitment to her local com­
munity of Scappoose, and to the broader Oregon
community, has not gone unnoticed. As early as 1981,
“Oregon Magazine” named Betsy as one of Oregon’s 100
most powerful women. In 1994, OES awarded her with the
Distinguished Alumni Award. Last year, Betsy was identified
as one of the lop 10 most influential residents of greater
Portland by The Business Journal.
Her involvement in numerous civic, community, and
political activities prepared Betsy for her current role as slate
representative for District 1, a position to which she was
elected in 2000.

“I used my youth wisely.”
Upon his graduation from BDH in 1968, Ben says he had
no political aspirations. Instead, he headed to the drier
climate of Eastern Washington and Whitman College, where
he received a great deal of attention as the first BDH gradu­
ate to attend Whitman. After earning a bachelor’s degree in
education and history, Ben returned to the Willamette
Valley in order to attend graduate school al the University of
Oregon. It was there that the road to his current political
position truly began.
Ben says that how he got into politics is a demonstration
of what real life is all about. He recalls silling in a classroom
al Oregon with BDH classmales Dan Driscoll and John
Floweree, listening to a professor talk about the vast
resources of diatomaceous earth in Eastern Oregon. This
type of soil is formed by the fossil deposits of a microscopic
one-celled alga with a stony cell wall that exists in sea and
fresh water.
Ben, Dan and John look the lead of their professor.
Together they moved to Eastern Oregon, scavenged equip­
ment needed to mine the diatomaceous earth, and created a
company that produced various household and industrial
products from the fossil material, the most notable being
kilty litter.
In lhe 1980s, Ben sold his interest in the business, bought
a catilc ranch in Wheeler County and moved to lhe small
town of Mitchell. There he got into lhe registered catlie
business, buying the finest catlie available and selling lheir
genetic products around the world.
This route, which led Ben to lhe high desert of Central
Oregon, also brought him to former Speaker of lhe House
Lyn Lundquist. Ben attributes Lyn with planting the seed in
the back of his brain about potentially getting involved in
politics. Ben’s daydream of a political career moved into
high gear one morning in 1996 when he called Lyn to
discuss the idea. About two weeks later, after many hours of

RETURNING TO HIS ROOTS

I

Ben spent much of his youth in the Mojave Desert area of
Southern California, attending a military academy with the
idea of perhaps going on to West Point or Annapolis after
graduation. His plans changed drastically, however, when
his parents moved to the Portland area and he entered
Bishop Dagwell Hall in the fall of 1966.
Ben found the differences in climate, school history, and
class size to be shocking. After being one of 150 high school
juniors in a military academy, Ben discovered himself living
in lhe verdant Willamette Valley, attending an Episcopal
school with only nine classmates. Ben adapted to his new
environment, at least temporarily, and now wryly remarks,

soul searching and discussions with his family, Ben decided
to run for the District 55 House seat. He figured that even if
he didn’t win the race, the campaign would at least be edu­
cational and interesting.
Ben says his mother prepared him for a loss as he under­
took his first political campaign, but the feedback he
received on the campaign trail encouraged him. He felt he
would win and the rest is history. Ben is now serving his

Ben acknowledges the difficulties of his role as co-chair of
this powerful committee. “The budgeting process is intense,
demanding and high-pressure, where each session 1 receive
thousands of requests for funding. My job is to give each
one a fair hearing, so that the individuals pitching their pro­
grams walk away knowing they have
been heard.” And Ben feels he has

Betsy has repeated Ben’s accom­
plishment of obtaining a position

tees. She praises the work and
accomplishments of Ben, and he
returns the compliments.

�THE BELL SOCIETY
The Bell Society honors and
recognizes individuals who have
either made a current gift to (he
Endowment or included Oregon
Episcopal School in their estate
plans. In the past year the school
has received gifts from trustees,
alumni, faculty, current and past
parents, and members of the
greater Portland community.
A gift to the Endowment pro­
vides funds that continue to grow,
in perpetuity, for the benefit of the
entire school community. By gen­
erating income beyond tuition, the
Endowment directly helps stu­
dents and teachers at Oregon
Episcopal School through
increased funding for student
financial aid, faculty salaries, teacher
professional development, and
enrichment programs for students.
A gift to Oregon Episcopal
School Endowment allows the
school to attract and retain teachers
and students of the highest quality.

LS and MS pep squads. The fun-filled day,
organized by US parent Kathy Wiest, included
a MS-organized latte bar, a booth featuring

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

When Ben Sadler graduated in the
spring of 2001, he left OES with more
than a quality education documented
by the diploma held in his hand. He
also left with a place in the school’s
history as one of only two students
who had earned 12 athletic “letters” for
participating on the school’s varsity
sports teams. Ben had spent his four
years in the Upper School playing
soccer, basketball and lacrosse al the
varsity level, in order to gamer those
dozen letters. Who was the first
student to achieve this goal? Kris Van
Hatcher, the school’s athletic director
for 26 years and a 1970 graduate of
Bishop Dagwell Hall.
According to the OES Upper School
Handbook, “Coaches will set their own
standards for giving athletic letters to
Varsity players ... Coaches look for
loyally, altitude, and diligence from
players to whom they wish to award a
letter.” So, the accomplishment shared
by Ben and Kris didn’t occur just
because they had the ability to play on
the varsity teams, but because they
brought something more to the sport
and to each team.
When Kris came to Bishop Dagwell
Hall in 1966, he didn’t have a goal of
earning 12 letters. What he wanted to
do was to play competitively and as
much as possible at the varsity level.
And so he did. During his four years at
BDH, Kris played on the varsity teams
and received letters in soccer, basket­
ball, tennis and lacrosse. He attributes
his successful participation on these
teams to his organizational ability and
discipline.
Kris also admits that playing on the
various sports teams required him to
sacrifice free time that he might have
spent in other endeavors. Although the
focus of Kris’ life may have been on the
playing field, he made a commitment
to play and succeed in sports and to do
well academically.
Kris’ devotion to competitive sports
went beyond the after-school practices

and games. During his junior and
senior years at BDH, Kris assisted his
math teacher who also coached the
Middle School basketball teams. This
required Kris to coordinate his free
period during the school day to coin­
cide with a Middle School P.E. class,
enabling him to take on the role of
coach’s assistant.
His effort and determination did not
go unnoticed by the school’s faculty
and staff. When Kris graduated in the
spring of 1970 with plans to attend
Springfield College in Massachusetts,
Fred Wood, principal of BDH, sug­
gested that there might be a job
wailing for Kris al BDH after he got his
college degree. And in his senior year
at Springfield, Kris received a phone
call from Mr. Wood offering him a
position as P.E. teacher, dorm parent
and coach for three sports. Without
much hesitation, Kris accepted the
offer. The following year in 1975, Kris
was named Athletic Director, a role
that he still holds after 26 years.
Kris says that his time at BDH as a
student prepared him for his current
role by teaching him the benefits of

who graduated from OES in 1998

28

▲ Kris Van Hatcher during his
senior year at BDH, 1970

discipline, the importance of doing the
right thing, the rewards of working
hard to be better, and the value of
community. He also learned organiza­
tional skills while al BDH, especially
important now when it comes to bud­
geting his available time between
various demanding activities.
The factors of Kris’ successful ath­
letic career al BDH carried over into
his adult life. His office wall is covered
with the plaques and awards he has
received over the years. He has been
chosen as Head Coach for both the
Girls Oregon All-Star Soccer Team and
the Oregon All-Star Lacrosse Team. He
has been appointed to the National
Soccer Rules Committee for high
schools for the past four years. His
accomplishments also include being
selected as Oregon High School Girls’
Soccer Coach of the Year; Region 7
National Girls’ Soccer Coach of the
Year; and two times as the 2A Oregon
Athletic Director of the Year. Despite
his obvious success, Kris remains
modest about his accomplishments,
saying, “I try to do my job. Awards are
not what I’m shooting for.”
Over the years al OES, Kris has seen
a constant change and improvement to
the OES sports program. This includes

�the addition of a Middle School athletic
program, which could not have
occurred without the purchase of the
facilities at SPARC. He also notes the
switch from a focus on competitive
athletics to one of physical education
for all students, not just those who
want to compete on a team. Finally, he
mentions the improvements to the OES
athletic facilities, such as the
Yanagitani track and the recent addi­
tion of the scoreboard and field lights.
Kris has seen many student athletes
come and go at OES, including Ben
Sadler. Kris watched as Ben’s athletic
skills and abilities improved, along
with his leadership qualities, during
his four years of competing on the
varsity soccer, basketball and lacrosse
teams. “Ben is an incredible athlete. It
is impressive how he came in as a
freshman and lettered in three sports,”
remarks Kris. “Ben succeeded at all
three sports and enjoyed them, without
the need for year-round training. Ben is
probably one of the best athletes that
ever attended OES.”
Just as Kris remains modest about
his accomplishments, so does Ben. He
grew up at OES as the son of faculty
member Lynne Sadler, and earned the
designation of “lifer” by virtue of
attending the school since his pre­
school days. During this lime, Ben says
his perspective on sports at OES

A Ben Sadler showed early promise in
athletics, playing throughout Middle
and Upper School at OES.

changed. “In Lower School, I idolized
the Lipper School players as they
seemed so large and great at what they
did. In Middle School, there seemed to
be less emphasis on competing on the
sports teams. When lacrosse started,
however, it seemed as if the whole
school got excited about it.”
Lacrosse was also a sport about
which Ben got excited. Unlike soccer
and basketball that he had played most
of his life, Ben didn’t start with lacrosse
until he got a stick in his 8th grade P.E.
class. As Ben tells the story, “Coach
Van Hatcher handed it to me and said,
‘You’ll need this in high school.’” Ben
used that stick to earn four of his varsity
letters and to gain recognition as a High
School All-American lacrosse player.
Like Kris, Ben also had to balance
his student life between academics and
athletics. However, he didn’t consider
it a balancing act. He had always been
involved in sports, and playing com­
petitively was just part of his
structured day. “Besides, being able to
play on a team gave me the incentive to
gel my homework done quickly,” he
says. He also admits that he did not set
out to earn 12 varsity letters; he only
considers it as a “nice accomplish­
ment.” Il is even nicer considering that
Ben was also on the Honor Roll for the
four years that he played competitively
year-round.
In reflecting upon matching the
accomplishment of Coach Van
Hatcher, Ben says he considers “Hatch”
as a friend more than as a coach and
acknowledges their common back­
ground of loving to play sports and
leach others. He adds, “I wish I could
have seen Hatch play in his heyday.”
When asked what they consider as
their greatest accomplishments while
at OES, you might think that Kris and
Ben would include the earning of their
12 varsity letters or being recognized as
one of the best in what they do.
However, neither mentions these
achievements. Ben talks about the
ability to compete on the different
teams while keeping open time to
study and socialize. Kris humbly iden­
tifies the environment that he has
created for sports at OES. This sup­
portive yet competitive environment is
the result of a no-cut policy that
encourages all students to participate

no matter what level of skill they bring
to the game. He has found that the
competitive players support their less
skilled teammates, thus resulting in a
high level of student participation.
Ben encourages prospective and
current OES students to participate on
lhe sports teams, saying, “It won’t
overtake your life. Playing sports pro­
vides you with another level of
experience, one that you may remem­
ber more than a score on a math test.
The relaxed atmosphere allows you to
play, win games and have a good lime.”
Speaking as a parent of current OES
students (Addison ’06 and Dalton ’03),
Kris appreciates how the school
encourages a balance between athletics
and academics. He wants his sons to
enjoy playing competitive sports and
do well in school, and not have a one­
sided approach where they focus on
one or lhe other. It isn’t an “either or”
situation, but one where a student can
fully participate in both. After all, Kris
reflects, “Athletics offer so many life
skills and experiences. They leach you
about working hard as a team, not
giving up, and learning how to handle
both failure and success.”
What else would you expect from an
individual who played well, showing a
dedication to his teams that went
above and beyond, earning him 12
varsity letters for his “loyalty, attitude,
and diligence.” ■

A Letter to
the Alumni

◄ Marietta Kuykendall '55,
Alumni Association President.
Above: From the 1955 year­
book, Marietta, in her "while
bucks," gets acquainted with
students visiting from Sweden
and Italy.

Dear Fellow Alumni,

I

o

R E G O N
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

Getting acquainted with a new person is an adventure. Do
you have something in common? Can you relate to this
person? Is this person friendly, funny, quiet or thoughtful?
Getting acquainted takes time, but it’s worth it. The process
is similar if you are gelling acquainted with a new school or
a new job. Getting reacquainted is similar, but there is the
history upon which you may draw.
Have you had the opportunity to gel reacquainted with
OES? Perhaps you can lour the campus and visit with those
who are here today. Alumni are encouraged to attend many
OES activities. OES and the Alumni Board have planned
many events specifically for alumni. Most are in the
Portland area, but events are also planned for Seattle,
Boston, New York City and San Francisco this year. Make
contact with some of your classmates. Class years ending
with a “2” or a “7” are featured al reunion this year. Don’t
forget to let us know what you are doing so it can be pub­
lished in The OES Belltower. At least be sure that we know
where you and all your classmales are.
A primary goal of the Alumni Board is to facilitate com­
munication between alumni as well as between the school
and alumni. We meet al least five limes a year. We have
members from St. Helen’s Hall, Bishop Dagwell Hall and
OES representing all decades from 1954 to 1995. We are
here to represent you.
I would like to thank Chuck Reynolds for the excellent job
he has done as the president of the Alumni Association for the
past two years. His insight as an alumnus, a former faculty
member and a current OES parent has been invaluable. We
are fortunate that he will continue as a member of the board.
When I joined the OES Alumni Board a few years ago, I
30

thoroughly enjoyed gelling acquainted with the other
members. However, I fell a need to get acquainted with OES
itself, or was it reacquainted? Was this a school I could rec­
ognize or not?
I attended St. Helen’s Hall in the fifties. We went to school
in the old building al 13th and Hall streets in downtown
Portland. If you have seen some of the black and while pic­
tures of girls in what were navy uniforms, navy blazers and
while blouses, look for one of those in while buck shoes and
that is me. I graduated with a class of 18 after having
attended throughout my high school years.
Today, as 1 lour the OES campus, visit classes, speak with
teachers, staff and students, I feel very much al home. Of
course, the old building is gone. The uniforms for older stu­
dents are gone and those for the younger students are much
more reasonable. The curriculum is more extensive and
appropriate for the 21st century. The graduating classes are
much larger than 18. However, the class sizes are still small.
The faculty is still striving for excellence. Chaplains are still
available to visit with students. The spirit of St. Helen’s Hall
is very much alive at OES.
We would appreciate the opportunity to gel reacquainted
with you. I have found the alumni of all eras to be an out­
standing group of people. Let us hear from you.

for 2001 which is very exciting for me.
I think fondly of the small class (29
seniors) 1 was in at OES, the inspiring
faculty (keep going Dr. Lamb, who
started his first year by leaching us
Texas linguistics in chemistry class),
and the uniqueness of the OES school
experience. Education is a priority in
my life as a result. Best wishes to the
current generations at OES
Brian Litzenberger ’86

Unfortunately, 1 was unable to attend
the reunion. Life on the East Coast
continues to be busy but being in
private practice (psychology) for only
one year leaves me until less disposable
income and less free lime than I might
like. Not to say that things aren’t going
well. Life is good and busy until work,
planning a commitment ceremony,
taking care of our two cats and dog,
and chairing the music committee at
church. Nonetheless, I wanted to pass
on my well wishes to all of my class­
males. 1 think of them fondly and
wonder about how everyone is doing. 1
hope very much that we will be able to
see each other at the 20th reunion.

I have been in Las Vegas for three years
now. In that time, I have finished a
master’s degree in political science at
UNLV and began leaching on an
adjunct basis for UNLV and the local
community college. I married Dr. Amy
D. Smith, an optometrist, on March 10,
2001. Jim Nudelman, Mike Danies and
Scott Klemp were in the wedding
parly. Amy and 1 are expecting our
first child on Christmas Day.

have a house in Lake Oswego with two
dumb, happy mutts and a cat who
thinks she owns everything. I’m in

still have way loo much energy for

my habit of running around like a

understand. My wife says I still look like
I’m 16. If you’ve read this far, send me

Howdy OESians! After OES, I went to
OSLJ for four years. Then went to grad­
uate school at LJSC in L.A. for a year.
Ended up with a masters in electrical

July 12, 2001

OES was greatly saddened to hear of
the death of Sally Reed Stout. Her
presence in the OES alumni commu­
nity was truly a blessing, and she will
be greatly missed. After graduating
from St. Helen’s Hall, Sally went on to
graduate from the University of
Oregon. During World War II, she
served in the US Women’s Army
Corps, returning afterwards to marry
Lansing Stout, Sr. She served for over
20 years as a piano teacher at Lewis
and Clark College. Sally was a faithful
member of the OES community, best
known for her wonderful history of
the Hall: Saint Helen’s Hall, The First
Century. Sally could always be
counted on as a reference for school
history. She was a faithful volunteer
with a warm heart. In 1998, the
Alumni Association honored Sally
with the Distinguished Alumni Award
for her years of service to the school.
Sally is survived by her her son
Lansing, Jr., and three grandchildren.

In Memoriam

Apparently I’m incapable of keeping
my mind made up! After transferring
from the University of Chicago to Case
Western Reserve University after only
one year, I have decided to change
majors. I was a geology major, pursu­
ing my kindergarten dream of being a
paleontologist. I’ve decided to give
writing a try, instead, and to that end,
I’ve become an English major (geology
minor). You never know whether you
can make it if you never try! Please,
English teachers, don’t rub the Science
department’s nose in it too much. I still
love my dinosaurs! Wish me luck.

�Y^AK-^NP d?U£STlONS
As you finish up your financial affairs for 2001, you will likely be thinking about your charitable
giving goals and aspirations. Here are a few questions to help you plan:

1. Am I aMe, fo Mafc&amp; a tfiarifable- ^iff fo

in 7-001?

The close of the calendar year, coupled with our current economic and political times, means
you are probably receiving many charitable requests from worthwhile organizations. During
this period, we hope you will remember OES and our ongoing financial needs. We are eager to
conclude this year in good financial shape so we can confidently face the opportunities and
challenges of the future. Your special year-end gift will strengthen us considerably. Of course, if
you have already made your gift to OES this year, we want to thank you once again.

2. Whaf are-

fax otli^fion^ for 7-001?

Many taxpayers consult with their accountants before the end of the year to determine tax lia­
bility. Perhaps you’ve done this already or maybe you simply have a good idea where you stand.
In any case, we encourage you to take advantage of the tax benefits offered by the government.

y Po I harfc appre-6-iafe-d Qtoofc. ok re-al

I c^ould donate fo OE&gt;S?

You may find yourself in a situation where you want to give more to Oregon Episcopal School
but cannot afford to decrease your annual income. Please consider these options:

A Gift of Stock
In most cases, the out-of-pocket cost of your gift is reduced substantially due to the "double"
tax benefit you realize when you contribute appreciated stock.
• First, you are entitled to an income tax charitable deduction for the full market value of
appreciated stock if it has been held for at least one year.
• Second, you pay no capital gains tax on the transfer or the sale of the stock by OES.

A Gift of Real Estate
Consider the family who purchased raw land years ago at a very low price; as an example,
$5,000. Now the land is appraised at $100,000, and the capital gains tax has slowed down any
ideas of selling it.
• The land could be donated to OES as a named capital or endowment gift; both would leave a
long legacy in the family’s name.
• The land could go into a trust, creating income for named family members for life or a period
of years and naming OES as the remainder beneficiary.

To help further your year-end gift, please call Kevin Cott, Director ofAnnual and Planned
Giving, in our Development Office at 503-768-3179 or email at cotek@oes.edu.

enrolling a few nonwhites, they said. Students from different
backgrounds must feel that they are welcome and that their
culture is respected.
Recruiting faculty from diverse backgrounds makes a school
more welcoming, but the South Africans said that task is difficult
because during the apartheid era black teachers did not receive
the level of training that white teachers received. Some schools
have instituted their own training programs, but as in the United
States, well-educated people of color often are lured away by
more lucrative pursuits than teaching. Rosa and others on the
Diversity Committee created by the OES Board of Trustees have
worked on that same challenge. While no targets or quotas are
used, the heads of the Upper, Middle and Lower Schools actively
seek faculty from a variety of backgrounds.
Another element the delegates identified as important in creat­
ing a welcoming environment for all students is achieving a
“critical mass” of different cultural, ethnic and racial groups so

students don’t feel alone in an alien place, but can share their
thoughts and feelings with others from similar backgrounds. The
educators saw an example of that on their trip when they visited
Sacred Heart School in Johannesburg, where about half the stu­
dents are white and half are black or “coloured,” a South African
term for people of mixed race or non white people who have
immigrated from India and other Asian countries. The students
at Sacred Heart told Rosa that they not only attend classes with
students of different races, they also socialize together and estab­
lish friendships. While having a critical mass of students of
different races is important to the quality of the interaction at
Sacred Heart, Rosa also saw the importance of historical factors.
Sacred Heart was in the forefront of schools that challenged
apartheid by enrolling nonwhite students, and the students
expressed pride at attending a school that was in the forefront of
the changes in their nation.

The Boorse family is headed to Thailand soon, but they aren’t
waiting until they step off the plane to begin learning about
Thai culture. They have already had an immersion experience
right in their own home.
It happened like this. They were planning a trip to the Asian
country for the Christmas holidays, and they read in the OES
Action newsletter that international students from the Upper
School often appreciate an invitation to visit with an American
family. So Dawn Boorse called Moneeka Settles, who oversees
that boarding program. “Does OES have any students from
Thailand and would a couple of them like to come to dinner?"
she asked. Moneeka checked with the students and promptly
responded, yes, they would like to go to the Boorse home for
dinner — all six of them!
And is there a particular American food they would like to
sample? No, they agreed, they would really love to have Thai
food. So Howard Boorse whipped up a Thai dish - which
received rave reviews - and they supplemented it with Thai
takeout. An international soiree ensued.
"They were a little shy, of course," said Dawn, “but we had
maps of their country and books about their country and asked
them to tell us things they liked about their country and what
they thought we should see.”
The students told them which temples they should visit, and
which would not be worth their effort. They told them where
they could ride elephants. They warned them about how
crowded the cities are, and one student told them about his
visit to the island of Phuket, where the Boorses plan to go.
The international and multicultural aspects of OES were part
of what attracted the Boorses to the school. They want their

daughter Andrea, who enrolled in the First Grade this year, to
experience different cultures, and they take her with them on
international trips, including their upcoming trip to Thailand.
Even though the international students were much older than
Andrea, they got along well.
“One of the students wrote my daughter’s name out in Thai
characters and she really thought that was great,” Dawn said.
The students from Thailand apparently enjoyed themselves-as
well. As they were leaving, a freshman girl told Dawn that it was
the first time she had ever been in an American home.
“I offered if they ever wanted to come over again, they are
welcome," Dawn said. “It was really a good experience." ■

not have many of the opportunities that are taken for granted
here, but they tenaciously grasp any chance for education that
arises. Rosa talked with students whose families spent all their
extra money just to buy a uniform so they could attend school.
Aware of that sacrifice, the students were striving to learn every­
thing they possibly could. She visited a high school called
Prestige College where the science program had one computer
and a single probe for inputting data, and she couldn’t help but
compare it to OES where dozens of probes make it possible for
all the students to use them to conduct experiments.
She thought Prestige College seemed poor. But then she
visited the Ikaneng School in Soweto, where she learned that the
school has no eighth grade because it has no money to pay a
teacher. The school was trying to organize a library so that after
finishing seventh grade, students could have a place to study on
their own for a year before entering the ninth grade at a high
school. Rosa knew that some of the South African students she
talked with would never go to high school. Those who did go to
high school might not be able to afford to continue through
graduation, much less attend a university. Nevertheless, they
spoke with the conviction that they could improve their lives
and help forge a democratic future for South Africa.

prison where Nelson Mandela and other political prisoners were
incarcerated before apartheid finally crumbled in the early
1990s. Her guide, a man who had been imprisoned at Robben
Island for opposing apartheid, showed the delegates a sign that
had been used at the prison to designate the amount of food to
be given to each prisoner. The daily allocation of protein for
blacks was less than the amount given to white prisoners.
“The harshness of the prison really got to me,” Rosa said.
“How can you see two people and not know that they need the
same nourishment?”
It was amazing to her that people emerging from such segrega­
tion and injustice seemed so willing to put the past behind them
and work toward a better future.
“It’s very touching to meet the children and see how hopeful
they are even though there is extreme poverty; you don’t always
see the same kind of hope regarding race issues in the United
States that we saw there,” she said. “There’s a lack of resentment
about the past. A lot of that has to do with the leadership Nelson Mandela and Bishop Tutu. I’m not a very political
person, but it is interesting to see how a brand new democracy
that guarantees rights tries to get those rights to all its people.”
TOWARD THE FUTURE

INJUSTICE AND FORGIVENESS

The child of a Mexican mother and a Mexican-American
father, Rosa has experienced the intermingling of cultures. She
grew up in the diverse culture of San Antonio, Texas, and in her
youth she encountered discrimination because she is Hispanic
and because she is female. However, the virulence of the
apartheid system shocked her. She visited the Robben Island

Head of School Dulany Bennett chose to send a representative
of OES to South Africa, and chose Rosa for that role, because
Dulany recognizes the importance of a multicultural education.
In discussing the path OES is charting into the future,she distin­
guishes between the terms “diversity” and “multicultural.” The
former simply indicates racial composition, whereas “multicul­
tural” describes the educational environment.

brought Glenn Hawkins’ future into
focus. He already knows what he will do
next summer. He foresees where he will
spend time abroad during college. He’s
thinking about where he will someday
seek a job. All those plans involve board­
ing an airplane for Japan.
Glenn's six-week visit last summer with
his friend Akira Takahashi ’02 fanned his
smoldering interest in other cultures. And
although Japan captured his imagination,
he also wants to experience other Asian
cultures. After he graduates from OES in
June, he will take a trip that likely will

include China, Thailand, Hong Kong, and
Korea in addition to Japan.
“I might make it into a gigantic Asian
tour," he said, explaining that he would
visit with friends in each of those coun­
tries. He has obtained a commitment for
funding from his mother, and he crosses
national borders as easily as most
Americans cross state lines.
Glenn came from Boise, Idaho, last
year to attend OES as a boarding
student, and the experience has given
him a view over the western horizon to
lands where people live, eat, and com­
municate differently from Americans.

“Diversity is more about numbers,” Dulany said. “Multiculturalism is more about the fabric, about welcoming, about
integration, and about everyone’s experience and culture being
equally valued. Multiculturalism means everybody is trying to
learn about each other rather than asking international students
or minority students to come and learn Anglo culture and not
have an opportunity to share their own religious background,
their own ethnic heritage and the histories of their countries.”
Including a variety of cultures in the curriculum is important
to a multicultural school, she said. OES focuses on the Western
tradition because politically, economically and socially the
United States has grown out of that tradition. However, in the
religion department, in the ninth-grade humanities classes and in
English classes, many other cultures are represented. That knowl­
edge of cultures is an essential part of a 21st century education.
“Our kids are going to grow up and they are going to have to
be savvy about international multiculturalism and within the
U.S. because they are going to have to work with people of all
kinds,” Dulany said. “They are going to have clients or partners...
in whatever walk of life they end up in, they are going to have all
these different interactions. Plus as citizens they are going to
have to make important decisions about what kind of culture we
are going to have. If they experience personal interactions with
lots of different kinds of people, their experience is much richer
and their wisdom is greater. If they think the whole world is like
them, they are at a great disadvantage. They will have the oppor­
tunity to interact with whomever they want and will have the
skills to do that. If you talk to any student who has had that
opportunity, they’ll tell you how great it is to get to know people
who are different from them.” ■

ESL students from Vose Elementary School, a public
school in Beaverton in which 13 languages are spoken.
The Vose students are predominantly Hispanic and are
learning English as a second language. Students from
OES tutor the students two afternoons a week, working
one-on-one on their reading skills, in a program called
AASK (Aardvarks Advocate Skills and Knowledge). During
one year of participating in AASK, the Vose students
average a two-year gain in reading skills, and both OES
and Vose students gain from the cross-cultural interaction.

Living in the international culture of the
dorms and going to school with people
from many countries has stimulated his
innate interest in the world.
“If I hadn’t come to school here, met
these friends, and gone to Japan, I think
my idea of what I want to do in my life
would be different," he said. "I'm happier
having had this experience."
Being in a foreign culture is not intimi­
dating for Glenn, and as a matter of fact
it is more comfortable in some ways. He
prefers Japanese food to American food,
and he appreciates the way the Japanese
treat one another.
“Even though I didn't understand the
language, I always felt comfortable
there," he said. "People are more

friendly there. It’s ingrained in their
culture to be polite."
He studied Japanese here for a year
before going to Japan, which allowed
him to communicate simple ideas in the
language and gave him a base for learn­
ing more. He stayed for two weeks in the
home of his friend Akira, and Akira’s
mother spoke slowly so he could under­
stand her. As he and Akira traveled
around the country, Akira translated for
him some of the time, but at other times
Glenn managed on his own. He is contin­
uing his study of the language so he can
communicate better the next time he
goes to Japan. He wants to become
fluent enough that he understands not
just the words but also the different style

OES AUTUMN 2002

in which people communicate.
“People are more reserved, and con­
versation is less to the point,” he said.
“They say something and you’re sup­
posed to understand what they mean by
inference. You have to learn the literal
meaning of a phrase and also what to
think when someone says this.”
It helped Glenn to have Akira explain­
ing Japanese culture, and Glenn has
become a translator himself for others,
explaining America to his Asian friends.
In the dorms, he conducts study sessions
about American history.
“They ask questions and I explain
things to them,” he said. “By explaining
it to them, I make sure I know myself
what’s going on.” ■

others,” Chris said. “The beauty of Primary is it has academic
work in the morning and individualized reading, writing and
playtime in the afternoon.”
The room itself reflects that mixture of work and play, with
desks at one end and a rug with a rocking chair at the other. The
children effortlessly pass between the two parts of the room, in
one moment engaged in an activity that seems like kindergarten,
in the next moment doing a lesson on a first-grade level. They
also get personal attention from the teacher in the afternoon.
While classmates are playing or working individually, each child
takes a turn sitting with Chris in the hallway. The student reads
to her from a book or shows her a journal entry. It allows Chris
to check how each student is doing.
“Usually the main focus is reading,” she said. “I have children
who are emergent readers to children who are reading on the
third- and fourth-grade levels. It’s a huge span of skills, but
because I have that one-on-one time I can take the child from
wherever he or she may have been and move them along.”
Attending to the needs of each child, which is a hallmark of
OES, was the reason the Primary program was created. In the
1970s, educators began to take note of research showing that
children develop at different rates, and that not all 6-year-olds
are ready to sit at a desk for long stretches of reading and writing
and math. The research explained why some bright children did
not do well in class, and schools responded by moving up the
cutoff date so children would turn six before they started first
grade. That helped, but OES took an additional step. If some
children are not ready for first grade, then why not create a level
at which they can begin doing academic work but with more
flexibility than first-grade classrooms generally permit? The
Primary class was instituted in the 1973-74 school year to
provide that flexibility.
A thorough admissions process is designed to make sure each
child is in an environment where he or she can succeed. The
children are evaluated by teachers and specialists,
who look at the academic, emotional, and social
development of the child. If the student can
benefit from more time to develop in one of those
areas, then a year in the Primary class is recom­
mended. The decision is then discussed with the
child’s parents,
“It’s a hard concept for parents to grasp that
children are being asked to use a huge array of
skills to learn to read and to write and to under­
stand math concepts,” Chris said. “All of those
things require a great orchestration of attention

and memory. The children are being asked to delay gratification
and to stay focused on something even if they are really not that
interested.”
Some children may have the requisite academic skills but need
more time to develop emotionally so they will be able to apply
those skills. Otherwise, their emotions may interfere with their
learning.
“They must be able to put aside the emotional pieces that are
going on inside their heads and focus on something else,” Chris
said. “We as adults have trouble doing that sometimes too, but
children have way more of those things coming into play.”
Boys are often advanced in gross motor skills but lag in fine
motor skills, which are needed for writing. Some people believe
boys simply mature more slowly than girls, but Chris believes
that the activities boys are more likely to participate in can slow
their development of writing.
“Commonly boys come to Primary because the focus of their

early years has been on fast, active play, and they haven’t taken
up a pencil for writing or a drawing tool for drawing, and so
their fine motor skills are not developed,” she said. “Also, the
fast, active children aren’t keen on sitting for a long period of
time.”
Other children simply don’t develop an early interest in
reading and writing because they are busy doing other things. If
academic work is forced on them, they will dislike school, but if
they come to it in their own time, they become interested. In
Primary, instead of a heavy diet of academics, the children have
an opportunity to do fun, enriching activities. They explore the
forest habitat on campus and sometimes create theater produc­
tions. Chris is also developing a computer lab outside in the

“Some children just really need more time to play,” Chris said.
“When you give them more time to play, toward the middle or
end of Primary they suddenly see all these children around them
learning how to read, and they think, ‘Hey that looks like fun; I
think I’ll stop playing now and I’ll learn how to read.’” ■

graduating as a valedictorian of
the OES Class of 2001. "Looking back at it now, I think it was a
great decision."
When Kenny's Kindergarten teacher told his parents, John and
Susan Gundle, that Kenny should go into the Primary class, they
were quite surprised. Susan explained their reaction: "He was
extremely bright so we said, really? His teacher felt the added
year would give him more advantage socially. She said she
thought it was best, and we thought she knew best because she
saw him in a classroom setting. She knows the kids and she
knows the first-grade curriculum."
Kenny’s birthday is in June, which means he would have been
one of the younger children if he had entered the First Grade. He
says he is glad he was allowed to grow up a little more in the

over again. I didn’t see any similarities between Kindergarten and
Primary, and I didn’t see a lot of repeat in First Grade from
Primary. It flowed very well,” he said. Of course, the year of
Primary meant that he was one of the older children in his class
in First Grade and thereafter. That allowed him to fit in better
socially, and he says that later on he reaped a big reward from his
elder status.
"As soon as Middle School hit and people realized, ‘That kid is
going to have a car his freshman year,’ it became a huge advan­
tage to be older," he said. And the benefits just keep accruing.
Even in college he feels fortunate to have an extra year of maturity.
"Overall it’s a great social advantage to be six months older
than it is to be six months younger,” he said. ■

Middle Schoolers Tour Memorials
A pilgrimage to 14 memorials and sacred spaces on the OES
campus culminated with the blessing of the new Wetlands Mural on
the west wall of the Middle School. For the “Sacred Path Chapel”
service in October, MS students toured the sites, saying a prayer at
each one. At the end, they converged on the new mural, which was
created by students guided by a professional artist and encouraged by
teacher Toni Holmberg. The mural was completed last summer and
represents the community’s commitment to caring for the Earth
through passion, study and hard work.

Pre-Kindergarten Goes Camping
The adventurous Pre-Kindergarten class of Sherry Eder and Candelaria Davis went on
an October “campout” in the OES forest. The children hiked to the woods, where parent
volunteers had set up tents and built a fire. The children sang around the campfire,
roasted marshmallows, made leaf rubbings and played games. Then they hiked back
down to school, smelling of woodsmoke. Parents who helped out were Melanie Gilbert,
Margie Nielsen, Bill Pavlich, Charles Nielsen, Dan Clark, Chih-Ching Chang, Ella Essieh,
Atiq Bajwa, Adrienne Wilson, Kimberly Crouch and Keith Packard.

Great Gourds, What a Halloween!
Lower School children brought their jack-o-lantems to school
in late October for the annual Pumpkin Carving Celebration.
Their creations reflected plenty of youthful imagination as well as
some technical help from the parents. The jack-o-lantems were
viewed by the judges, who ruled, as always, that everybody wins.
Each child received a prize for his or her entry.

Jean-Michel Cousteau discusses OES wetlands studies with chemistry stu­

Filmmaker and ocean conservationist Jean-Michel Cousteau
talked with OES students about their studies of the school wet­
lands during his visit in October. Cousteau, whose father
Jacques popularized oceanography, first gave a talk to a gather­
ing of all Middle School students. He told them a story about a
boy who made it his life mission to bring wells to dry African
villages. “Don’t ever give up,” he urged the students. “You can
make a difference.” A number of students stood up and
described aspects of their wetlands studies. Then Cousteau
walked to the wetlands with Upper School chemistry students
who are conducting experiments on water quality. They told
the conservationist how they are using internationally accepted
methods of documentation so their work will be useful to those
who will make decisions about protecting the watershed.
Cousteau’s visit was part of the Science, Technology and Society

Elizabeth Shipe Jones ’45
I gave up committee and volunteer work
several years ago. We do some traveling,
but mostly stay close to home where we
care for our four-legged animals. We still
have three horses, but don’t ride very often.
Our grandchildren are scattered around the
world with careers and schooling - the
nests are empty, and that is good. Our farm
requires a minimum of care so we have
time to pursue retirement activities:
reading, shop work, and throwing away all
the stuff we no longer need to keep.

Eight members of our family live in the

OES AUTUMN 2002

�KATHERINE EKLUND STEEN '88
INTERVIEWED BY HILARY HELGESON ’04
Years at OES... Katherine was a “lifer" at
OES. She lived in the same house the
whole time she went to school here,
which meant she made the same drive
every day for 12 years.
Avoided “clothing crime"... Her mother
had a hard time with her when she was in
Middle School because she took so long
to choose her clothes in the morning. She
says it was almost a crime to wear the
wrong shirt. Everything had to be perfect.
Looking back, she thinks it might be a
good idea for the students to continue wearing uniforms through Middle School,
even though she recalls the uniforms as being “not terribly fashionable."
Tears at graduation... "Graduation was beautiful. The choir sang and I just wept
the whole time."
Fourteen years after OES... Katherine went to Vassar, earned a teaching certifi­
cate, and then returned to Portland and earned a master's degree in education.
She started "slinging espresso" while teaching private lessons in the afternoons,
and then managed the kids’ section of festivals.com.

kids... I will be happy to know more about
you and other guys with us in the same class.
Jennifer Trudeau Graylands ’84
I’m finally back in Portland! (Well, Tigard
actually... but close enough). I decided the
commute from Seaside to St. Vincent’s was
too far (after 1.5 years!) and talked my
family into moving back to the city. So, new
house, same job. If anyone has a need for a
computer geek, my husband is looking for
work. Our daughter started middle school
and is loving it so far. Our two dogs aren’t
so sure about not having the beach to run
on, but they are adjusting! Hope to run into
some fellow alumni downtown, at the mall...
Julie Reid Douglas ’85
I am always anxiously awaiting the latest
Belltower, as I love to read the alumni notes
and hear about my classmates, and/or
dorm-mates. I thought I should share some
info too! I live in Nashville with my
husband Scott and our two boys, Dylan (5
years) and Ethan (11 mos.).

Greg Simon ’85

We recently transferred to the Seattle area
where I am the district manager for an
international logistics firm called Danzas
AEI Intercontinental. Charmian and I are
enjoying our 13th year of marriage. We
have been blessed with two boys, Hayden,
4, and Chandler, 2. They keep us busy
pretty much from sunup to sundown.

was not good for me. However, I would love
to hear what everyone in the Class of ’87 is
up to. I am currently a national sales trainer
for a mortgage company here in San Diego.
Bobby Lee *88
Left Eugene and currently living in
Portland, working as a director for a non­
profit in downtown. I often work out with
Dylan Coulter from class of 1989.
Mary Waite Garvey '89
I just had a baby... Edward (Ned) Hugh
Garvey, Aug. 31, 2002.
Cris Harris ’89

Mary and I are well, if very busy with work
and efforts to restore the property we
bought (in Ohio). We love it, and the last
owners did great work on it, but they left us
a bit to do. We’ve been wiring, and replac­
ing a boiler (did you know that an old cast
iron boiler weighs like 3000 lbs. and has to
have its pipe elbows broken out with a
sledgehammer? Did you know that if you
don’t wrap a towel around the elbow, the
pieces of cast iron can fly across the room
and put you in the emergency room waiting
for sutures while people who are hurt by
reasons other than their own stupidity get
care?) painting, mowing, planting gardens,
and trying to keep a 100-year-old barn
from doing what gravity and the weather
have been convincing it to do all this time.
I’m finishing my second week of class
today, teaching humanities and junior
English to a diverse bunch of kids who talk
with a different accent than OES kids, but
are pretty much the same good souls.

Lorca Fitschen Smetana ’87
I couldn’t make the reunion but I thought
I’d write with an update. I was married
(near Bozeman, Montana) on July 28 of
this year to Dusan Smetana, a wildlife pho­
tographer from Czechoslovakia. I am
teaching critical thinking to freshmen now
at Montana State University, and am pretty
darned happy. I hope you’re doing well,
too! See the link

I apologize for this late response regarding
the OES Reunion. I would love to attend,
but my girlfriend is moving down to San

CHUCK REYNOLDS ’69

Griffith Owen ’92

INTERVIEWED BY KENT SAITOH '03

CampusPoint is doing very well, we have
very good relationships with local employ­
ers of all sizes, gas in the tank, and
phenomenal employees.

History was captivating... Chuck remembers
the history teachers, especially Donald
Coldberg, being extraordinarily interested in
their subject and extremely passionate in their
teaching. “The history teachers got me
hooked," he said. From 1976 to 1986, Chuck
taught history at OES.

:

Strict dress code... A corduroy jacket, slacks, a
white shirt and a tie were required to be worn
every day. He said students expressed their
individuality by wearing garish ties.

Tessa Williamson White '92

Tessa works at Yahoo in the Bay Area. She
got married at the Governor Hotel in May,
Corbet did the wedding. In the wedding
party was Courtney Brown ’92. In atten­
dance were Kyle Williamson ’97, Tricia
Kreinberg ’92, Shannon Dooley ’92, and
Tara Sorensen Witt ’92.

Science has changed... When Chuck attended
Bishop Dagwell Hall, there were no science projects or individual research assign­
ments. However, one teacher did take forays into the wetlands —with his shotgun
and dog!

*=

Vietnam War years... A Green Beret soldier spoke at a school assembly in 1965 or
1966. It was before opposition to the war had grown, but Chuck remembers that
some faculty members and students questioned the soldier about why the United
States was involved in Southeast Asia. By the time he graduated, anti-war sentiment

?

was quite strong among the faculty, but he doesn't remember students expressing
opposition, perhaps because they were too busy with their schoolwork.
Thirty-three years after Bishop Dagwell Hall... Chuck is an attorney and a graduate
of Stanford University. His daughter Margaret graduated from OES in 2000, and his

il

son Mackenzie is a senior.

Tara Sorensen Witt '92
Thanks to everyone who was able to make
the reunion on Oct. 5. It was great to see
old friends and catch up. I was amazed at
the people who traveled in for the event.

SUSANNAH VALATKA '60
INTERVIEWED BY ASHLEY MORGANSTERN '03
Describes St. Helens Hall In the 1950s...
The whole school was very formal, which
pleased Susannah. “I liked the formality and
wished it had been even more formal," she
said. There was a daily uniform inspection,
first by faculty, then by students. Untidy
clothes, such as a torn stocking, were not
tolerated, and untidy students were forced
to clean up. The purpose of OES, as
Susannah understood it, was to teach
young girls how to be ladies. At St Helens
Hall they were taught proper manners,

Erin Boyle ’95

Hey! After graduating from Lewis and
Clark College in 1999 with a degree in
anthropology and sociology I took off for
six months and traveled around India and
the Middle East. After reluctantly coming
home I settled in Olympia, Washington,
and worked with at-risk youth in a crisis
residential center. Now I am living in
Miami, working for the University of
Miami on a CDC research grant looking at
HIV/AIDS in the Haitian community and
getting my masters in special education.
Would love to hear from everyone and
anyone and all are welcome to come visit

attire, and conduct, while being provided with a rigorous academic schedule.
Remembers traditions... A "silly" tradition were initiations for new students,
which were modeled after initiations of college sororities. Students would wear
radishes around their necks or have to roll around in spaghetti. On the serious
side, there was a formal Christmas Pageant each year and it was an honor to be
chosen to portray the Virgin Mary.
Changes she recalls... The curriculum emphasized science and math more after
the Russians sent Sputnik into space.
Forty-two years after St. Helens Hall... Her profession is being a college registrar,
in which she is aided by the command of English she gained at St. Helens Hall.

Adam Greene ’96

I finally finished my undergraduate degree
at Bowdoin College (Com sci major, Bio
minor) in December. The six-year program
actually does exist... and it is not so bad! I
went on to do some graduate research in
Computational Chemistry (surprise,
Rosa!), but was sucked away to Wall Street
to work with a group that does quantitative
and statistical modeling of the market. I
never saw myself working on the street, but
I still avoid having to wear a suit and a tie!

mouthful, you should see the invitations!).
Some of my OES friends attended, and
Rose Whitmore, Class of’98, was one of my
bridesmaids! We had the reception at the
Oswego Heritage House, and we honey­
mooned on the coast!... It was very nice to
see Father David again, and we both really
enjoyed our pre-wedding chats with him he is as wise as he is funny. And of course, I
had asked Father David to officiate at my
wedding when I was in middle school, so I
had to follow through :)

Just wanted to drop a little note hoping you
haven’t forgotten about me, because I still
remember all of you from OES and miss
you a lot! Currently, I’m a sophomore at
Zagreb Med School and am living in the
dorms with some friends. This summer I
had Kristi McKean visit me in Croatia for a
few days, but I hope I’ll be able to come to
Portland again sometime soon and see
some of the “OES people” as well. Wishing
all of you well! Ciao!

Correction
A room shown in a photograph in
the summer issue of the OES magazine
was misidentified as the “Wreck
Room.” The room at St. Helens Hall
was actually called the “Round Table
Room” and was used as a senior study
hall and for club meetings. We regret
the error.

ANNUAL REPORT

Building Our Children’s Future
THE CAMPAIGN FOR OES
In the fall of 2001, under the leadership of Wayne Drinkward,
OES began the early stages of a multi-year $28 million capital
campaign designed to maximize the potential of each of our stu­
dents. Plans call for the ambitious capital investments in three
defining elements of an OES education: a school community
made up of students of promise, an unmatched and dedicated
faculty, and top-notch facilities supporting world-class teaching
and learning. The outstanding generosity of the donors listed
below made it possible for us to break ground in June for our
new Math, Science, and Technology Building. Gifts were also
made for the renovation of the Upper School and for the
school’s endowment. We are grateful for their support.

�Dear Friends,
Late in April, OES teacher
Kathy Narramore’s fourth
grade class invited me to their
“-ology” presentations. Unable
to resist a fourth grade
invitation, and, eager to
satisfy my own curiosity, I
went along. Before reaching
Kathy’s classroom, however, I
was waylaid by the extraordi­
nary, high tech, large-scale
constructions of Jane KenneyNorberg’s LEGO® Maniacs: a
five-foot, hydraulically
operated “suspension" bridge,
a couple of helicopters and
several other creative
inventions — some fantastic
and some recognizable, built
in an After School class.
After watching how each
extraordinary piece worked
and trying to understand the
fascinating explanations of
our young engineers, who
articulated their designs and
construction — a remarkable
combination of mathematics,
electrical and hydraulic
engineering, architecture,
kinesthetics, aesthetics and
sheer practicality — I entered
the wonderful world of fourth
grade “-ologies”.
What a day this was! With my
engineering training I felt wellequipped for Kathy’s girls
and boys. But wow! I encoun­
tered a musicologist who
expounded on Beethoven
and a mineralogist who taught
me about a plethora of semi­
precious and exotic items that
I might otherwise have
dismissed as mere rocks and

stones. The pathologist was
dissecting a fetal pig and was
delighted to show me the vital
chest and cranial organs,
wondrously revealed under
her 4th grade scalpel with
sections awesomely magni­
fied under her neighbor’s
microscope. An ornithologist
and I discussed the fate of the
peregrine falcon and the
beauty of the American eagle,
and I debated the speed and
strength of leopards with a
young zoologist.

When I met with these young
scholars, it seemed only
natural that I should think of
Peter Relic, President of the
National Association of
Independent Schools, who
visited our campus in late
April. While in Portland to
address the spring meeting of
Heads of members of the
Pacific Northwest Association
of Independent Schools (our
regional accrediting group),
Peter admonished us to ask
our students — and ourselves
— “Why?” He reminded us of
the need to break out of the
molds of the past, to take the
lid off, to explore, to attempt
the road less travelled.

Both Kathy and Jane are
venturing in ways that great
teachers pursue. They’re
called “high risk/high gain”.
And judging from this
observer’s visits on that one
day, our young scientists/
scholars have indeed
achieved “high gain”. They
are asking questions, and
they are understanding.

And this is what it’s all about,
this teaching and learning
process of ours. Our teachers
are learners themselves — all
the time. Our students are
also teachers, of each other
and of their teachers, not to
mention humble visitors like
me.
In this issue you will read
about my recent trip to Tokyo,
where I joined in the first
meeting of the Pacific Rim
Advisory Council of OES. We
asked our friends from four
East and Southeast Asian
countries many questions.
“Why send your young people
to America for schooling?
Why send them to OES?”

Their answers were clear.
“You encourage children to

ask questions, to try new
things, to attempt (and
possibly fail), to explore and
to dare. You validate effort."
This answer lived for me that
one day in our wonderful
Lower School, along with
echoes of Peter Relic’s
prescriptions. And I know why
OES — and schools like ours
— thrive, and why great
people like Kathy and Jane
teach and work here, anc why
great kids like Hideki and
Edwin, Dwight and Jessica
Kathryn and Laura, Alexander
and Alexandra, Susan, Erik
Chris, Lynn, James, Kyle,
Liam, Evan and Anees can
become “-ologists” for a day
or a week — and scholars
and humanists for a lifetime!
And I am heartened about the
future of education in our
land.

Visit us. Meet these kids and
teachers, and wonder with
them, as I do!
Sincerely,

Peter W. Stevens

First meeting of the OES Pacific Rim Council held
in Tokyo
On April 16 and 17, OES Headmas­
ter Peter Stevens and Director of
Admissions Sue Nicol met with
delegates at the first meeting of the
OES Pacific Rim Council, which was
held in Tokyo. The purpose of the
initial meeting was simple — to find
out why East and Southeast Asian
parents send their young people to
America for school, and why many
parents choose OES. The Council,
which was the brain child of former
OES Headmaster The Rev. Canon
Malcolm H. Manson, also explored
a wide range of ideas of what it
means to be a Pacific Rim institu­
tion.

Guests and projects make Africa
come alive for young students
A long time ago in
Africa

The people were sad.
the people were mad,
They had no stories to
make them laugh or
cry.
The stories belonged to
the God in the Sky7

Ananse knew just what
to do

For he was smart and
clever too.
He made a web up to
the Sky7

And asked Nyame to let
him try

To earn the stories He
kept hidden away...

...So Ananse t&lt;M&gt;k the
golden box of stories
back to earth,

To the people of his
village.

▲ This year's Lower School Global Studies program involved students in
Pre-Kindergarten through 2nd Grade in an intensive, hands-on study of
Africa. Many parents and guests, including Marianna Bomholdt, shared
a wealth ofstories, photographs, knowledge and artifacts from the huge
and varied continent.

Students explore the art of international
negotiations
Pretend you’re a Japanese diplo­
mat. The U.S.S.R., as such, no
longer exists, but “Russia” is actively
seeking foreign aid. You are
interested in Russia’s oil reserves
but so are the United States, Great
Britain and France. What are you
going to do?
“Think Japanese!” was history
teacher Corbet Clark’s often
repeated advice to the nine Upper
School students representing Japan
in a multi-school international
negotiation simulation. “For OES
students, understanding the
problems facing Japan was easy.
The challenge was how to think, and
then act, in the way a high-level
Japanese diplomat would think and
act — not as a typically forthright
and assertive American.”

i

The International Negotiation
Project (INP) is offered as an activity
at OES. It is run by Joyce Kaufman,
Ph.D., of the political science
department at Whittier College and
supported by a grant from the
United States Institute of Peace.
Communications equipment links 15
West Coast schools, allowing the 15
countries represented to send
messages via computer and phone
lines. In its second year of participa­
tion, OES is still the only Oregon
school involved.

Seniors Ramon Palanca and Mike
Punja, who are both in their second
year with INP.

participate out of an interest in
international affairs; others enjoy
working with computers.

Students received background
material on Japanese political,
economic, military and diplomatic
conditions which they then applied
to a scenario set six months in the
future. Other countries represented
included The United States, China,
Great Britain, Korea, The Philip­
pines, India, Taiwan, France,
Germany, Mexico, Brazil and
Russia, which the OES team called
“Country X” since the recently
dissolved U.S.S.R. had not decided
on a permanent name at the time of
the simulation.

Modeled on a similar program from
the East Coast, INP seeks to let
students experience something
close to international negotiating
and learn more about international
issues in the process. The simula­
tion is also designed to teach
students how to deal with language
barriers and translations by
presenting some on-line transmis­
sions in Spanish.

Though Corbet was allowed to give
examples, he was not permitted to
help during simulations. Students
noted, however, that he provided
lots of paper, referring to the
considerable research and prepara­
tion required for the project.
According to Corbet, some students

The International Negotiation
Project this year were Freshmen

Seeley, Vincent Staffer and Kris Van
Vactor, Junior Gerald Park and

With three to six countries on-line at
once — sending messages fast and
furiously — the one-hour confer­
ences are always the highlight of
the simulation. Students have to
deal with personality conflicts and
transmission breakdowns — it's
hard to make other countries think
what you want them to think.

‘There were no winners. No end of
the game. Just real-life sense of
some problems solved and some
left hanging,” said Corbet. Learning
about the art of negotiating included
some fine distinctions for the
students: be assertive but not
aggressive, let others believe they
are receiving important things, and,
sometimes, say and do nothing —
it’s best.

�Mock trial team wins spectacularly in debut case
Each year, organizers of the Oregon
Law Related Education Project,
commonly referred to as Mock
Trials, draft a fictitious case for high
school students in public and private
schools throughout the state to
argue. The Oregon Law Related
Education Project is unique because
the students involved must prepare
cases for both the plaintiff and the
defendant.

This year’s case involved a civil
lawsuit against a school district.
The plaintiff — a student who had
passed all his classes, yet was
unable to meet the basic graduation
requirements — brought an educa­
tional malpractice suit against a
school district. The student asked
for $20,000 to pay for schooling, so
he could acquire the skills needed to
meet criteria established for
graduation.
In this, their first year competing in
the Mock Trial competition, OES
Upper School students gave a
spectacular performance during the
first round of the Mock Trials which
took place March 6 and 7. Of the 24
teams competing, OES was one of
only three teams to win all three of
their cases. This is particularly
noteworthy considering their
opponents — seasoned teams with
members who had as many as three
years prior experience.

“The people who organize this
competition were pretty impressed
that a team competing for the
first time did so well,” remarked
OES parent Keith Meisenheimer,
a Senior District Attorney for
Multnomah County, who co­
coached the OES team with fellow
parent the Honorable Judge
Dorothy Baker, District Court
Judge for the State of Oregon
for Multnomah County.

The OES team’s impressive
performance won members a place
at the State Competition on April 3
and 4. Before the State Competi­
tion, Keith confided, “I’m more
nervous for these kids than I am at
my own trials.”
With less than a month to prepare
for the State Competition, OES
Students — Kyle Freres, Tyler
Freres, Courtney Kaempf, Genny
Konz, Heather McDougall, Larisa
Meisenheimer, Toby Menely,
Margaret Spring and David Moser
— once again surprised spectators
and competitors when they won
the first two rounds at the State
Competition. In the hotly contested
third round, however, the OES team
lost to the experienced Grant High
team, which went on to finish
second. “They finished in the top
four and built a great reputation,”
Judge Baker said. She attributes

much of their success to significant
parent support. “They’ve been very
supportive — especially with tactical
support — getting the kids from one
place to the next. It takes a lot from
parents and kids."
Beyond learning about how the court
system works, these students gain
knowledge of a different variety.
“Each kid involved in this program
learned something different, based
on individual skills and personalities.
These kids are videotaped, vhich
helps them realize the importance
breathing, appearance and projection.
They learn the difference between
written and verbal communication
and how to convey their thoughts
most effectively depending on the
medium. They build self-confidence;
develop public speaking skills and
leam to think on their feet. And they
also leam that things aren’t always
fair and a whole lot of things about
the world.”

OES co-sponsors science lecture series, hosts
so little attention to time, his primary
area of interest.

For the second year, OES joined
Oregon Public Broadcasting and
Portland State University along with
Waggener Edstrom and CH2MHill
as sponsors of the 1991-92 Science
Technology and Society Lecture
series. Presented by the Institute for
Science, Engineering and Public
Policy, this year’s series brought six
scientist/authors to Portland for
public lectures — and to the OES
campus to meet with students. The
series is part of the School’s
intensive science education
programs.

In October, Dr. Barrow made a brief
presentation and then fielded
questions from students on “the
anthropic principle.” This theory
holds that the existence of intelligent
life doesn’t fit into many traditional
views of the universe and that,
therefore, the universe was de­
signed to lead to intelligent life — or,
ultimately, to humanity.

After a school-wide presentation on
the technology of the pencil on
October 31, Henry Petroski, Ph.D.,
visited a conceptual physics class to
field more serious questions on
engineering and structural design.
Dr. Petroski, an engineer as well as
an historian and philosopher of
design and the technological
process, uses not only large
engineering structures, but also
such familiar objects as table

knives, paper clips and children’s
toys, to explain — without jargon —
the basic ideas underlying structural
design and its failures.

Paul Davies, Ph.D., professor at the
University of Adelaide, considered
by many simply the best popular
writer on modern physics and the
most credible physicist/philosopher
in fifty years, discussed “New
Discoveries in Nature’s Creative
Ability to Order the Universe’’ with
students on Thursday, December 5.
Drawing on recent discoveries in
many fields including brain re­
search, biological evolution,
computers and astrophysics, he
argued that all matter and energy
have the ability to self-organize, with
increasing complexity, according to
common holistic principles.
Chemist and systems scientist, Ilya
Prigogine, Ph.D., was the fourth
guest speaker to visit OES in the
Science, Technology and Society
Lecture Series. The Nobel Prize
winner from the University of Texas
and the University of Belgium visited
OES on Thursday, March 5th. Born
in Moscow at the outbreak of the
Russian Revolution, he shared his
unique perspective on history in the
making. Prigogine and his family
fled Russia, first to Lithuania, then to
Berlin, before settling in Belgium. It
was perhaps because of his early
interest in history and philosophy
that he wondered why science paid

10

How can science and religion both
make sense? It's a question many
students — not to mention adults —
find difficult. On April 9, The Rev.
Dr. John Polkinghorne told OES
students “they do”. After the group
presentation, he debated more
specific issues with a small group of
interested students. Polkinghorne,
who taught mathematical physics at
Cambridge for 25 years before
resigning to study theology and
become an Anglican Priest, is now
president of Queens’ College,
Cambridge.

Lynn Margulis, Ph.D., explained her
work with the Gaia Theory as the
keynote speaker for the OES
community Earth Day celebration on
Friday, May 1. Greek for Mother
Earth, “Gaia” was chosen by
scientists to name the hypothetical
system that regulates the Earth.

▲ Winner of the Nobel Prizefor
Chemistry, Dr. Ilya Prigogine shared
his struggle for acceptance by the
scientific mainstream.
Gaia Theorists believe that the
Earth is a biological — as opposed
to physical or chemical — construc­
tion. Lynn Margulis is a botanist who
has gained recognition for pioneer­
ing fundamental insights about the
central role of symbiosis (coopera­
tive relationships) in evolution, and
is a distinguished Professor of
Botany at the University of Massa­
chusetts, Amherst. After the
presentation, she met with students
to continue a discussion related to
her remarks.

In the past 10 years, three OES
students have been selected to
attend the International Science and
Engineering Fair and have won
numerous first, second, third,
honorable mention and special
awards at the NW Science Expo. In
1989, OES received the OMSI Award
as the school with the most outstand­
ing research program in Oregon.
Other winners of that award include
Nyssa (1988), Gold Beach (1990),
Rainier Middle School (1991) and
Joseph Junior-Senior High School
(1992). “This year, the OES students
did an excellent job in an increasingly
competitive field,” says Bill, who is an
Upper School science teacher and
holder of the Winningstad Chair in the
Physical Sciences.

Pacific University in Forest Grove,
host to the NW Science Expo in 1991
and 1992, provided $6000 scholar­
ships to all 3rd, 2nd, and 1st place
winners and $10,000’scholarships to
the four students chosen to attend the
International Science and Engineer­

�Award-winning Middle School community
service program promotes health
“The MS Health Curriculum has four
aspects: health of the body, health
of the mind, health of the spirit and
health of the community. These are
not taught as separate components
but rather as a whole. We teach
students how each relates to the
other,” explained MS health teacher
Mike Devenney.

To accomplish these goals, the MS
Health curriculum was expanded to
include a community service unit
four years ago. This program has
been designed to expose students
to life outside OES while providing
opportunities for meaningful service.
Each MS student must spend half a
day, six times a year, serving the
community. The assignments are
varied, ranging from visits to nursing
homes to helping out at the Wash­
ington Park Zoo.
The careful development and
steady growth of this program
brought national attention when
the program was recently honored
by the Council for Religion in
Independent Schools (CRIS). The
OES program was selected as one
of only two Middle School programs
in the United States to receive an
Honorable Mention Community
Service Award.

The CRIS awards aim to inform
other schools of notable policies and
practices, recognize and inspire
excellence in moral consciousness,
action and student leadership and
stimulate the growth of service
programs. In their letter of notifica­
tion, CRIS wrote, “The committee
was particularly impressed that the
program evolved from and is
integrated into the curriculum and
commends the outstanding commit­
ment of the faculty.”

Mike attributes the success of this
program to two major factors:
support — from parents, faculty and
administration — and consistent
evolution. ‘When we first started this
four years ago, it was like pulling
teeth,” Mike recalled. “When I told
organizations that these were
Middle Schoolers, they kind of went
‘eeegh’. Now, all I have to do is pick
up the phone, and they’re glad to
have us. In fact, now we even have
people calling us.”

“Most programs try to do it all the
first year, and everyone loses
because they discover either the
kids or the organizations are not
prepared. This program was
allowed to evolve. Now the kids
see it as part of the curriculum.
We spend time preparing for service
assignments before we go out and
debriefing during the class that
follows. Students know that their
input counts,” Mike concluded.
Through the work they do, students
often have opportunities to apply
what they have learned in other
classes. Working at Tryon Creek
State Park, for example, applies
what 8th grade students have
learned in their GALA (Government
and Language Arts) classes about
disabilities. “We help clear and
maintain the trail — to make it
barrier free. Its one way we can help
them see the whole picture, to see
how their work can help others.”

increased from four to six; students
now take part in the selection of their
assignments and are guaranteed
their first choice at least twice during
the year. Next year, students will
begin to select the organizations
they would most like to help.

awards is the submission of ?.

and are in trouble that you start to

... So the program is educational
and it leaves both the giver and
recipient happy.”
Mike has been pleased with the
student’s response to this program
and says, “Knowledge of a job well
done and the thanks they receive
help students see how they can
make a positive difference."

An outcrop of growth is evident in
changes that have taken place in
the program over the last four years.

OES boasts record high spoils participation
A conversation with OES Athletics
Director Kris Van Hatcher '70 about
why that’s good news

be enthusiastic and do a good job,
know their sport. With this, the winning
will come naturally."

The BellTower: What percentage
of Upper School students play
sports?

The BellTower: But, don’t you need
some players who are simply good
at sports?

Kris Van Hatcher ’70: This year
we have 83% participation — 151
out of 183 US students, our highest
ever. Usually we have 75 %, which
is considered high. For 91-92, our
lowest class has 75% participation
and the highest has 88%.

Kris: Of course, a team needs some
talent, but it’s not the most important
factor.

The BellTower: Why is participa­
tion at OES so high?

Kris: Our program allows kids to
play at an earlier age and builds
confidence so that by 9th grade,
playing a sport is natural. We work
very hard on encouraging participa­
tion. We make it fun. And we give
kids opportunities. If we have
enough students come out, we
make a 3rd team, rather than cut
the extras. We also communicate
with teachers. We have faculty
support; teachers understand the
role of athletics and we try to
minimize time out of class.

The BellTower: What’s average
participation?
Kris: Public school participation in
a sport probably averages 20 to
30%.

The BellTower: What does such
high participation do for OES?

Kris: Even if kids don’t have
experience playing a sport, we
encourage them to try it. We make
kids feel good. The students here
are good about making other
students feel good. At OES, sports
help kids learn to balance — not to
stretch themselves too thin. Studies
have shown that sports help kids
get better grades, stay healthier
and learn to be better organized.

The BellTower: How do you define
responsible competition?

▲ OES Athletics Director Kris Van
Hatcher '70 challenged Headmaster
Peter Stevens to a friendly game of
basketball at the January re-opening
ofSPARC.
The BellTower: Why are sports
important to our philosophy of
education?
Kris: Sports also teach kids reality,
commitment and how to cope with
pressure. Sports are like life. If you
don’t come to practice, you don’t
play; if you don’t come to work, you
get fired. As with having a job,
participating in sports requires being
on time, coping with winning/losing,
improving skills and working as part
of a team.
The BellTower: What do you
mean by a “meaningful physical
activity” as stated in your
program goals?

Kris: In order for sports to be
meaningful, kids need ownership,
fun, structure, ways to measure
improvement and the teamwork of
pulling it all together so the experi­
ence is good — win or lose.

The BellTower: What about
winning and losing?
Kris: You can only practice so long
before you need to test yourself
against someone else. The “thrill’’ of
competition is healthy — the pre­
game butterflies are actually good
for you. When I interview coaches, I
say “the kids need to have fun and
be well organized. Coaches need to

14

Kris: I have a list of criteria that
includes good coaches, being pre­
pared, safety, both team and personal
achievement goals for kids and
worthwhile effort.

The BellTower: What does participa­
tion do for students?
Kris: We all know kids have a lot of
energy. Sports allow constructive
release and help kids cope with
academic stress. There’s also camara­
derie, discipline, commitment, respon­
sibility and learning to win as well as
lose. Sports complement what
happens in the classroom.

The BellTower: What competitive
sports do we offer?
Kris: In the Upper School we offer
soccer, cross country, basketball,
skiing, tennis, track and fencing for
both boys and girls, and volleyball for
girls. In the Middle School we have
soccer, basketball, tennis, track and
fencing for boys and girls as well as
volleyball for girls.
The BellTower: How about facili­
ties?

Kris: We have outstanding facilities.
And it helps the program — particularly
SPARC (The OES Sports and Recre­
ation Center) for tennis. SPARC has 3
indoor tennis courts, four outdoor
courts, a basketball court, 2 racquetball
courts, a fencing room and a studio/
exercise room. We have the allweather Yanagitani Track with a 6lane, 400-meter, latex polyurethane
surface. There are three soccer fields.
And in the main gymnasium we have a
basketball court, weight room and a
movement-exercise room.

“The Sisters were very kind,”
Beatrice Thurston Paget ’15
recalled. “I’ll never forget arriving at
the Hall. Here I was, a perfect
stranger, and Sister Elisa Monica
walked right up to me and kissed
me on the cheek to welcome me. It
was just the right effort. A very nice
transition from my home in Wells.”
Bom in 1896, Beatrice’s early
school-age memories were of the
one-room school she walked to
each day, dinner pail in hand.

Beatrice Thurston Pagel ’15
Though she was accustomed to the
rural community of Wells, Oregon,
the decision to attend St. Helens
Hall was an easy one for Beatrice
and her family. “We lived in an area
where there was no adequate
education. The Bishop’s [Benjamin
Wistar Morris] idea of providing a
place where people like me could go
to continue their education was so
wonderful."
And so, Beatrice became a
boarding student at St. Helens Hall.
She attended the Hall for three

years before her graduation in 1915.
“As a boarder, everything was
scheduled. We had so many
activities. We were always going on
hikes; the Sisters used to walk every
day. We had chapel every day,
played ping-pong, and every night
after dinner, the girls danced. Since
it was all girls, you were very
popular if you could lead. A number
of the Sisters didn’t think we should
dance on Sunday, but Sister Elisa
Monica insisted that it was much
healthier for us to dance than to sit
around and gossip.”
In the summer of 1914, the Vista
St. Clair building burned. Though no
one was hurt, there would only be
limited space available the following
year. For this reason, the only
students allowed to return were
those who had planned to graduate
in the class of 1915. “Those of us
allowed to return lived in the
Bishop’s house on 19th and Elm. It
was very intimate with just our class
and 2 or 3 sisters," Beatrice
recalled.
Life with the Sisters, however, was
not always easy. They were quite
strict and took their responsibility for
parenting young girls very seriously.
“We were very protected. When we
went out, we were expected to have
a chaperone — either a sister or a
teacher,” Beatrice recalled. “And
there were so many rules. We
always thought they had eyes in the
back of their heads.”
Remembering her years at the
Hall, Beatrice said, “It was a
wonderful experience. So much a
part of my life. I’m grateful for what
the School gave me. I’m not afraid
of anything — I’ll try anything."
Following her graduation from St.
Helens Hall, Beatrice found work
with Ellison-White, arranging
Chautauqua bookings. Originally
founded in 1874, this Chautauqua,
New York based organization grew
to more than 400 groups nation­
wide. The “chautauquas”, as they
were called, were one of the first
organizations to pay fees to
speakers, thus they attracted
notable speakers and supplied
culture-hungry small towns with
symphony concerts, operas, plays
and lectures.
While attending college, Beatrice
did advance work for the lecturers
and performers who traveled the
circuit. “During WWI we travelled to
Australia and New Zealand. I can
18

still remember discussing the future of
Chautauqua with Mr. Ellison who
predicted, ‘If radio ever gets started, it’ll
be the end of Chautauqua’.” Mr. Ellison
was right. After reaching its peak in
1924, the success of the chautauquas
declined. Radio and the increased
mobility made possible by the automo­
bile contributed to the decline of the
chautauquas’ popularity.
Despite its ultimate demise, Beatrice
said, “Chautauqua was the biggest
event in my life.” Not only did Beatrice
have an opportunity to travel — an
option open to few women at that time
— but she met her husband, Lowell
Paget, who was also an Ellison-White
employee.
They wed in 1919, but not without
certain conditions laid down by
Beatrice’s mother. “Mother said I could
get married only if I continued to go to
school. I had to graduate.” So Beatrice
and Lowell enrolled together in the
Northwestern School of Law in 1921. “It
was fun. I was one of only three
women in the class, so we women had
a little more attention. The professor
used to say ‘I can see the wife is the
smart one’.”
When asked whether or not the
professor’s compliment was fitting,
Beatrice modestly responded, “I did a
lot of theory, but Lowell was working
full time for the Paget Mortgage
Company, so he had a better under­
standing of what was going on outside
school. Also, I was able to concentrate
on school, while Lowell had to work.”
After graduating in 1924, Beatrice
joined Lowell. ‘We were very fortunate
to be able to work together at the Paget
Mortgage Company.” The following
year the Paget’s first child was bom,
and as the family continued to grow
(four more children were bom in the
next 14 years), the demands of family
life took Beatrice away from full-time
legal practice.
In 1932, Lowell ran for a seat in the
Oregon Legislature, which he won, and
in 1935, Beatrice became state
president of the Oregon League of
Women Voters. While serving in this
capacity, she successfully lobbied for
passage of Aid to Families with
Dependent Children, arguing that
rather than separating families, the
mothers should receive the support
they need to keep their children at
home.
Beatrice attributes her many suc­
cesses and activities to “good parents,
good health and good people along the
way".

Weekend in June, the birthday could
conclude with a Music and Arts
Festival on the OES campus for the

It is hard for me to believe that my
first year as Alumni Board President
is complete. I have enjoyed meeting
so many of you and look forward to
seeing even more of you at events in
the year to come.

Our April Alumni Board meeting
focused on the School’s upcoming
125th birthday in 1994. We came up
with some great thoughts to com­
memorate this momentous occasion!
The celebration will begin in the fall of
1994 and culminate in June of 1995.
The Alumni Association will work with
a committee of students, parents,
trustees, faculty and staff in planning
a year long celebration. The birthday
will officially kick off on the first day of
school in September of 1994. A gala
Founder’s Day dinner in November
will bring all alumni, friends and
family together for a festive evening.

Some of the plans in the works
include a commemorative seal,
designed to unite St. Helens Hall,
Bishop Dagwell Hall and Oregon
Episcopal School for introduction
next year, publications and
notecards featuring the seal, limited
edition sketches and a possible
book emphasizing the past 25
years.
I hope many of you will want to
become involved with our 125th
birthday. This is an unique and
exciting opportunity for all alumni, to
show our loyalty and share wonder­
ful memories of our school days in
such a grand way. I hope to see
many of you involved in this project,
and if you are called upon to help, I
hope you will give freely of your
time.
I am happy to report that our two
new alumni events, Alumni Night at
the Theater and After Hours have
been very successful! For the
Upper School Spring musical
Something’s Afoot, a record number
of alumni attended the wonderful
production. Alumni Night at the
Theater has become a very popular
event! Thanks to the help of

Jean Ladehoff dies February 22
Jean Arthur Ladehoff, wife of The
Rt. Rev. Robert L. Ladehoff, Bishop
of Oregon, died February 22 in
Portland of cancer.

A memorial service was held
February 29 at the Cathedral of St.
John the Baptist, Portland. The Rt.
Rev. Jerry A. Lamb, Bishop of
Northern California, was the
celebrant. Bishop Lamb had served
as executive assistant to Ladehoff
until his election as bishop. The Rt.
Rev. Rustin Kimsey, Bishop of
Eastern Oregon, was the preacher.
I"
Jean Arthur
Ladehoff
1930-1992

A second memorial service was
held March 4 in St. Andrew’s
Episcopal Church, Durham, North
Carolina, her family church. The Rt.
Rev. Hunt Williams, Suffragan
Bishop of North Carolina — a long­
time friend of the family — was the
celebrant.

Jean Arthur was bom November
28, 1930, in Durham, NC. She
taught school in North Carolina
after her graduation from Duke
University. She also taught in
Washington, D.C., prior to her
marriage.

The Ladehoffs moved to Oregon
six years ago when Bishop
Ladehoff was elected. Jean
Ladehoff accompanied her
husband on his visitations through­
out the Diocese and shared
actively in his ministry in many
ways. She also served as presi­
dent of the Friends of William
Temple House, a Portland-based
Episcopal counseling agency.

In addition to her husband, Mrs. Ladehoff
is survived by her son Robert L.
Ladehoff, Jr., of Orlando, Florida, and a
sister, Frances Richardson, of Durham.
Remembrances are suggested as
donations to the Diocese of Oregon’s
Triangle Lake Conference Center, care
of the Diocese of Oregon, PO Box 467,
Lake Oswego, Oregon 97034. The
Ladehoffs met as young people at a
church camp in North Carolina, and this
ministry was a very important one to her
all her life.

OES named beneficiary of charitable remainder
annuity tmst
OES was recently informed that
Elizabeth Reeves SHH ’32/JC ’35
made a substantial gift in the form
of a charitable remainder annuity
trust, and named Oregon Episcopal
School as the recipient of the
principal of the Trust upon her
death.
When a charitable remainder
annuity trust is created, the donor
turns over cash, marketable
securities or other assets to a
trustee. The donor, or a selected
beneficiary, receives a fixed annual
payment for life. In this case, the
remaining trust assets eventually
pass to OES for use in accordance
with the donor’s wishes.
Following a brief visit to campus in
September with her sister, Margaret
Reeves Yick SHH ’30/JC ’33, Beth
Reeves moved into a retirement
community in Cupertino, California.
In a letter to Headmaster Peter
Stevens announcing the gift, she
requested that OES accept this gift
on behalf of both her and Margaret.

“We are pleased to honor Beth’s
intentions, and thrilled with her
confidence in our wonderful
School. Current and future OES
students benefit because of the
thoughtful support and vision of
people like Beth Reeves,” said
Peter.

News of this nature brings great
excitement to the OES Commu­
nity. When received, this gift will
help assure a financially strong
and educationally sound School
for the future. Perhaps even more
important is the signal it sends to
our community that education is of
paramount importance, worthy of
substantial long-term support.
There are a number of ways an
individual can make a lasting
legacy to OES. Some are espe­
cially appealing because they
provide the support necessary to
continue and enhance the

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

22

School’s mission, while offering
substantial benefits to donors. All
play a significant role in securing the
School’s future.
Bequests need not be large. As the
total of Annual Giving to OES
demonstrates, it is the cumulative
efforts of many donors and various
amounts which build our endowment
and secure our stability year after
year.
The School recognizes and respects
that bequest intentions are a
personal matter, which should be
kept in strictest confidence. Knowl­
edge of a donor’s intentions, how­
ever, is helpful to financial planning.
We recommend those considering
such a gift seek legal/financial
counsel. For more information on
planned giving opportunities, please
call or write the Development Office.

�Students design OMSI exhibit on
salmon
Retna Surya — began with an April
14 field trip to OMSI to meet with the
exhibit design staff. OMSI designers
shared their insights of the design
process and the challenge of taking
an idea and translating it into a final
product.

What is it like to be a wild salmon in
the Columbia River Basin? To find
out, come experience an exhibit
created and produced by ninth
grade biology and art students from
OES at the Oregon Museum of
Science and Industry (OMSI) from
May 29 to June 15.

The exhibit will be installed May 2628, with a special exhibit opening for
the OES community on Friday, May
29, from 7-9 pm at OMSI.
Under the direction of OES teachers
Sue Jensen and John LeCavalier
and the OMSI staff, students have
created a salmon-eye view of drift
nets, hydro-electric dams and
gravel-bottomed spawning grounds
— an opportunity to experience the
life-cycle of the anadromous wild
salmon.

This collaborative effort between
Sue’s Art Trek class and John’s
Ecological Biology class — Greg
Coffeen, Joe Ferguson, Alyssa
Gregg, Shane Hoffman, Jesse
LeCavalier, Jason Mehr, Aaron
Murray, Jon Reali, Jessica Reuther,
Zach Russell, Ethan Scheible and

Following their meeting with OMSI,
the students worked through initial
concepts and designs. Says John,
“The small group process inherent
in the project gave them a unique
opportunity for collaborative
decision-making.” After the students
had preliminary exhibit designs, two
designers from OMSI — Greg
Garrett and Patricia Thornton —
visited the OES campus for critique
sessions.

The Biology students, acting as the
writing and research team began
their work with support text. “The
group editing required to distill one
page of text into one paragraph of
careful, age-appropriate language is
a challenge not often encountered
at such an early age,” says John of
the process some students found
quite challenging.

grade class invited me to their
“-ology” presentations. Unable
to resist a fourth grade
invitation, and, eager to
satisfy my own curiosity, I
went along. Before reaching
Kathy’s classroom, however, I
was waylaid by the extraordi­
nary, high tech, large-scale
constructions of Jane KenneyNorberg’s LEGO® Maniacs: a
five-foot, hydraulically
operated “suspension" bridge,
a couple of helicopters and
several other creative
inventions — some fantastic
and some recognizable, built
in an After School class.
After watching how each
extraordinary piece worked
and trying to understand the
fascinating explanations of
our young engineers, who
articulated their designs and
construction — a remarkable
combination of mathematics,
electrical and hydraulic
engineering, architecture,
kinesthetics, aesthetics and
sheer practicality — I entered
the wonderful world of fourth
grade “-ologies”.
What a day this was! With my
engineering training I felt wellequipped for Kathy’s girls
and boys. But wow! I encoun­
tered a musicologist who
expounded on Beethoven
and a mineralogist who taught
me about a plethora of semi­
precious and exotic items that
I might otherwise have
dismissed as mere rocks and

stones. The pathologist was
dissecting a fetal pig and was
delighted to show me the vital
chest and cranial organs,
wondrously revealed under
her 4th grade scalpel with
sections awesomely magni­
fied under her neighbor’s
microscope. An ornithologist
and I discussed the fate of the
peregrine falcon and the
beauty of the American eagle,
and I debated the speed and
strength of leopards with a
young zoologist.

When I met with these young
scholars, it seemed only
natural that I should think of
Peter Relic, President of the
National Association of
Independent Schools, who
visited our campus in late
April. While in Portland to
address the spring meeting of
Heads of members of the
Pacific Northwest Association
of Independent Schools (our
regional accrediting group),
Peter admonished us to ask
our students — and ourselves
— “Why?” He reminded us of
the need to break out of the
molds of the past, to take the
lid off, to explore, to attempt
the road less travelled.

Both Kathy and Jane are
venturing in ways that great
teachers pursue. They’re
called “high risk/high gain”.
And judging from this
observer’s visits on that one
day, our young scientists/
scholars have indeed
achieved “high gain”. They
are asking questions, and
they are understanding.

And this is what it’s all about,
this teaching and learning
process of ours. Our teachers
are learners themselves — all
the time. Our students are
also teachers, of each other
and of their teachers, not to
mention humble visitors like
me.
In this issue you will read
about my recent trip to Tokyo,
where I joined in the first
meeting of the Pacific Rim
Advisory Council of OES. We
asked our friends from four
East and Southeast Asian
countries many questions.
“Why send your young people
to America for schooling?
Why send them to OES?”

Their answers were clear.
“You encourage children to

ask questions, to try new
things, to attempt (and
possibly fail), to explore and
to dare. You validate effort."
This answer lived for me that
one day in our wonderful
Lower School, along with
echoes of Peter Relic’s
prescriptions. And I know why
OES — and schools like ours
— thrive, and why great
people like Kathy and Jane
teach and work here, anc why
great kids like Hideki and
Edwin, Dwight and Jessica
Kathryn and Laura, Alexander
and Alexandra, Susan, Erik
Chris, Lynn, James, Kyle,
Liam, Evan and Anees can
become “-ologists” for a day
or a week — and scholars
and humanists for a lifetime!
And I am heartened about the
future of education in our
land.

Visit us. Meet these kids and
teachers, and wonder with
them, as I do!
Sincerely,

Peter W. Stevens

First meeting of the OES Pacific Rim Council held
in Tokyo
On April 16 and 17, OES Headmas­
ter Peter Stevens and Director of
Admissions Sue Nicol met with
delegates at the first meeting of the
OES Pacific Rim Council, which was
held in Tokyo. The purpose of the
initial meeting was simple — to find
out why East and Southeast Asian
parents send their young people to
America for school, and why many
parents choose OES. The Council,
which was the brain child of former
OES Headmaster The Rev. Canon
Malcolm H. Manson, also explored
a wide range of ideas of what it
means to be a Pacific Rim institu­
tion.

Guests and projects make Africa
come alive for young students
A long time ago in
Africa

The people were sad.
the people were mad,
They had no stories to
make them laugh or
cry.
The stories belonged to
the God in the Sky7

Ananse knew just what
to do

For he was smart and
clever too.
He made a web up to
the Sky7

And asked Nyame to let
him try

To earn the stories He
kept hidden away...

...So Ananse t&lt;M&gt;k the
golden box of stories
back to earth,

To the people of his
village.

▲ This year's Lower School Global Studies program involved students in
Pre-Kindergarten through 2nd Grade in an intensive, hands-on study of
Africa. Many parents and guests, including Marianna Bomholdt, shared
a wealth ofstories, photographs, knowledge and artifacts from the huge
and varied continent.

And when he opened

All the stories scattered
to the corners of the
world, including this
one...

Students explore the art of international
negotiations
Pretend you’re a Japanese diplo­
mat. The U.S.S.R., as such, no
longer exists, but “Russia” is actively
seeking foreign aid. You are
interested in Russia’s oil reserves
but so are the United States, Great
Britain and France. What are you
going to do?
“Think Japanese!” was history
teacher Corbet Clark’s often
repeated advice to the nine Upper
School students representing Japan
in a multi-school international
negotiation simulation. “For OES
students, understanding the
problems facing Japan was easy.
The challenge was how to think, and
then act, in the way a high-level
Japanese diplomat would think and
act — not as a typically forthright
and assertive American.”

i

The International Negotiation
Project (INP) is offered as an activity
at OES. It is run by Joyce Kaufman,
Ph.D., of the political science
department at Whittier College and
supported by a grant from the
United States Institute of Peace.
Communications equipment links 15
West Coast schools, allowing the 15
countries represented to send
messages via computer and phone
lines. In its second year of participa­
tion, OES is still the only Oregon
school involved.

Seniors Ramon Palanca and Mike
Punja, who are both in their second
year with INP.

participate out of an interest in
international affairs; others enjoy
working with computers.

Students received background
material on Japanese political,
economic, military and diplomatic
conditions which they then applied
to a scenario set six months in the
future. Other countries represented
included The United States, China,
Great Britain, Korea, The Philip­
pines, India, Taiwan, France,
Germany, Mexico, Brazil and
Russia, which the OES team called
“Country X” since the recently
dissolved U.S.S.R. had not decided
on a permanent name at the time of
the simulation.

Modeled on a similar program from
the East Coast, INP seeks to let
students experience something
close to international negotiating
and learn more about international
issues in the process. The simula­
tion is also designed to teach
students how to deal with language
barriers and translations by
presenting some on-line transmis­
sions in Spanish.

Though Corbet was allowed to give
examples, he was not permitted to
help during simulations. Students
noted, however, that he provided
lots of paper, referring to the
considerable research and prepara­
tion required for the project.
According to Corbet, some students

The International Negotiation
Project this year were Freshmen

With three to six countries on-line at
once — sending messages fast and
furiously — the one-hour confer­
ences are always the highlight of
the simulation. Students have to
deal with personality conflicts and
transmission breakdowns — it's
hard to make other countries think
what you want them to think.

‘There were no winners. No end of
the game. Just real-life sense of
some problems solved and some
left hanging,” said Corbet. Learning
about the art of negotiating included
some fine distinctions for the
students: be assertive but not
aggressive, let others believe they
are receiving important things, and,
sometimes, say and do nothing —
it’s best.

�Mock trial team wins spectacularly in debut case
Each year, organizers of the Oregon
Law Related Education Project,
commonly referred to as Mock
Trials, draft a fictitious case for high
school students in public and private
schools throughout the state to
argue. The Oregon Law Related
Education Project is unique because
the students involved must prepare
cases for both the plaintiff and the
defendant.

This year’s case involved a civil
lawsuit against a school district.
The plaintiff — a student who had
passed all his classes, yet was
unable to meet the basic graduation
requirements — brought an educa­
tional malpractice suit against a
school district. The student asked
for $20,000 to pay for schooling, so
he could acquire the skills needed to
meet criteria established for
graduation.
In this, their first year competing in
the Mock Trial competition, OES
Upper School students gave a
spectacular performance during the
first round of the Mock Trials which
took place March 6 and 7. Of the 24
teams competing, OES was one of
only three teams to win all three of
their cases. This is particularly
noteworthy considering their
opponents — seasoned teams with
members who had as many as three
years prior experience.

“The people who organize this
competition were pretty impressed
that a team competing for the
first time did so well,” remarked
OES parent Keith Meisenheimer,
a Senior District Attorney for
Multnomah County, who co­
coached the OES team with fellow
parent the Honorable Judge
Dorothy Baker, District Court
Judge for the State of Oregon
for Multnomah County.

The OES team’s impressive
performance won members a place
at the State Competition on April 3
and 4. Before the State Competi­
tion, Keith confided, “I’m more
nervous for these kids than I am at
my own trials.”
With less than a month to prepare
for the State Competition, OES
Students — Kyle Freres, Tyler
Freres, Courtney Kaempf, Genny
Konz, Heather McDougall, Larisa
Meisenheimer, Toby Menely,
Margaret Spring and David Moser
— once again surprised spectators
and competitors when they won
the first two rounds at the State
Competition. In the hotly contested
third round, however, the OES team
lost to the experienced Grant High
team, which went on to finish
second. “They finished in the top
four and built a great reputation,”
Judge Baker said. She attributes

much of their success to significant
parent support. “They’ve been very
supportive — especially with tactical
support — getting the kids from one
place to the next. It takes a lot from
parents and kids."
Beyond learning about how the court
system works, these students gain
knowledge of a different variety.
“Each kid involved in this program
learned something different, based
on individual skills and personalities.
These kids are videotaped, vhich
helps them realize the importance
breathing, appearance and projection.
They learn the difference between
written and verbal communication
and how to convey their thoughts
most effectively depending on the
medium. They build self-confidence;
develop public speaking skills and
leam to think on their feet. And they
also leam that things aren’t always
fair and a whole lot of things about
the world.”

OES co-sponsors science lecture series, hosts
so little attention to time, his primary
area of interest.

For the second year, OES joined
Oregon Public Broadcasting and
Portland State University along with
Waggener Edstrom and CH2MHill
as sponsors of the 1991-92 Science
Technology and Society Lecture
series. Presented by the Institute for
Science, Engineering and Public
Policy, this year’s series brought six
scientist/authors to Portland for
public lectures — and to the OES
campus to meet with students. The
series is part of the School’s
intensive science education
programs.

In October, Dr. Barrow made a brief
presentation and then fielded
questions from students on “the
anthropic principle.” This theory
holds that the existence of intelligent
life doesn’t fit into many traditional
views of the universe and that,
therefore, the universe was de­
signed to lead to intelligent life — or,
ultimately, to humanity.

After a school-wide presentation on
the technology of the pencil on
October 31, Henry Petroski, Ph.D.,
visited a conceptual physics class to
field more serious questions on
engineering and structural design.
Dr. Petroski, an engineer as well as
an historian and philosopher of
design and the technological
process, uses not only large
engineering structures, but also
such familiar objects as table

knives, paper clips and children’s
toys, to explain — without jargon —
the basic ideas underlying structural
design and its failures.

Paul Davies, Ph.D., professor at the
University of Adelaide, considered
by many simply the best popular
writer on modern physics and the
most credible physicist/philosopher
in fifty years, discussed “New
Discoveries in Nature’s Creative
Ability to Order the Universe’’ with
students on Thursday, December 5.
Drawing on recent discoveries in
many fields including brain re­
search, biological evolution,
computers and astrophysics, he
argued that all matter and energy
have the ability to self-organize, with
increasing complexity, according to
common holistic principles.
Chemist and systems scientist, Ilya
Prigogine, Ph.D., was the fourth
guest speaker to visit OES in the
Science, Technology and Society
Lecture Series. The Nobel Prize
winner from the University of Texas
and the University of Belgium visited
OES on Thursday, March 5th. Born
in Moscow at the outbreak of the
Russian Revolution, he shared his
unique perspective on history in the
making. Prigogine and his family
fled Russia, first to Lithuania, then to
Berlin, before settling in Belgium. It
was perhaps because of his early
interest in history and philosophy
that he wondered why science paid

10

How can science and religion both
make sense? It's a question many
students — not to mention adults —
find difficult. On April 9, The Rev.
Dr. John Polkinghorne told OES
students “they do”. After the group
presentation, he debated more
specific issues with a small group of
interested students. Polkinghorne,
who taught mathematical physics at
Cambridge for 25 years before
resigning to study theology and
become an Anglican Priest, is now
president of Queens’ College,
Cambridge.

Lynn Margulis, Ph.D., explained her
work with the Gaia Theory as the
keynote speaker for the OES
community Earth Day celebration on
Friday, May 1. Greek for Mother
Earth, “Gaia” was chosen by
scientists to name the hypothetical
system that regulates the Earth.

▲ Winner of the Nobel Prizefor
Chemistry, Dr. Ilya Prigogine shared
his struggle for acceptance by the
scientific mainstream.
Gaia Theorists believe that the
Earth is a biological — as opposed
to physical or chemical — construc­
tion. Lynn Margulis is a botanist who
has gained recognition for pioneer­
ing fundamental insights about the
central role of symbiosis (coopera­
tive relationships) in evolution, and
is a distinguished Professor of
Botany at the University of Massa­
chusetts, Amherst. After the
presentation, she met with students
to continue a discussion related to
her remarks.

I Northwest Science Expo Results

...If the science expo
were scored like a
track meet, OES
would have finished
second...
The Northwest Science Exposition
research competition is the State
science fair for Oregon and southwest
Washington. It includes competition
for individuals and groups at the
junior high (6 categories) and high
school (13 categories) levels.
According to Bill Lamb, “If the science
expo were scored like a track meet,
OES would have finished second
behind Nyssa High School, which
provided 3 of the 4 students selected
to attend the International Science
and Engineering Fair.”
In the past 10 years, three OES
students have been selected to
attend the International Science and
Engineering Fair and have won
numerous first, second, third,
honorable mention and special
awards at the NW Science Expo. In
1989, OES received the OMSI Award
as the school with the most outstand­
ing research program in Oregon.
Other winners of that award include
Nyssa (1988), Gold Beach (1990),
Rainier Middle School (1991) and
Joseph Junior-Senior High School
(1992). “This year, the OES students
did an excellent job in an increasingly
competitive field,” says Bill, who is an
Upper School science teacher and
holder of the Winningstad Chair in the
Physical Sciences.

Pacific University in Forest Grove,
host to the NW Science Expo in 1991
and 1992, provided $6000 scholar­
ships to all 3rd, 2nd, and 1st place
winners and $10,000’scholarships to
the four students chosen to attend the

�Award-winning Middle School community
service program promotes health
“The MS Health Curriculum has four
aspects: health of the body, health
of the mind, health of the spirit and
health of the community. These are
not taught as separate components
but rather as a whole. We teach
students how each relates to the
other,” explained MS health teacher
Mike Devenney.

To accomplish these goals, the MS
Health curriculum was expanded to
include a community service unit
four years ago. This program has
been designed to expose students
to life outside OES while providing
opportunities for meaningful service.
Each MS student must spend half a
day, six times a year, serving the
community. The assignments are
varied, ranging from visits to nursing
homes to helping out at the Wash­
ington Park Zoo.
The careful development and
steady growth of this program
brought national attention when
the program was recently honored
by the Council for Religion in
Independent Schools (CRIS). The
OES program was selected as one
of only two Middle School programs
in the United States to receive an
Honorable Mention Community
Service Award.

The CRIS awards aim to inform
other schools of notable policies and
practices, recognize and inspire
excellence in moral consciousness,
action and student leadership and
stimulate the growth of service
programs. In their letter of notifica­
tion, CRIS wrote, “The committee
was particularly impressed that the
program evolved from and is
integrated into the curriculum and
commends the outstanding commit­
ment of the faculty.”

Mike attributes the success of this
program to two major factors:
support — from parents, faculty and
administration — and consistent
evolution. ‘When we first started this
four years ago, it was like pulling
teeth,” Mike recalled. “When I told
organizations that these were
Middle Schoolers, they kind of went
‘eeegh’. Now, all I have to do is pick
up the phone, and they’re glad to
have us. In fact, now we even have
people calling us.”

“Most programs try to do it all the
first year, and everyone loses
because they discover either the
kids or the organizations are not
prepared. This program was
allowed to evolve. Now the kids
see it as part of the curriculum.
We spend time preparing for service
assignments before we go out and
debriefing during the class that
follows. Students know that their
input counts,” Mike concluded.
Through the work they do, students
often have opportunities to apply
what they have learned in other
classes. Working at Tryon Creek
State Park, for example, applies
what 8th grade students have
learned in their GALA (Government
and Language Arts) classes about
disabilities. “We help clear and
maintain the trail — to make it
barrier free. Its one way we can help
them see the whole picture, to see
how their work can help others.”

increased from four to six; students
now take part in the selection of their
assignments and are guaranteed
their first choice at least twice during
the year. Next year, students will
begin to select the organizations
they would most like to help.
One of the requirements in submit ting an application for the CRIS
awards is the submission of ?.

and are in trouble that you start to

... So the program is educational
and it leaves both the giver and

Mike has been pleased with the
student’s response to this program
and says, “Knowledge of a job well
done and the thanks they receive
help students see how they can
make a positive difference."

An outcrop of growth is evident in
changes that have taken place in
the program over the last four years.

OES boasts record high spoils participation
A conversation with OES Athletics
Director Kris Van Hatcher '70 about
why that’s good news

be enthusiastic and do a good job,
know their sport. With this, the winning
will come naturally."

The BellTower: What percentage
of Upper School students play
sports?

The BellTower: But, don’t you need
some players who are simply good
at sports?

Kris Van Hatcher ’70: This year
we have 83% participation — 151
out of 183 US students, our highest
ever. Usually we have 75 %, which
is considered high. For 91-92, our
lowest class has 75% participation
and the highest has 88%.

Kris: Of course, a team needs some
talent, but it’s not the most important
factor.

The BellTower: Why is participa­
tion at OES so high?

Kris: Our program allows kids to
play at an earlier age and builds
confidence so that by 9th grade,
playing a sport is natural. We work
very hard on encouraging participa­
tion. We make it fun. And we give
kids opportunities. If we have
enough students come out, we
make a 3rd team, rather than cut
the extras. We also communicate
with teachers. We have faculty
support; teachers understand the
role of athletics and we try to
minimize time out of class.

The BellTower: What’s average
participation?
Kris: Public school participation in
a sport probably averages 20 to
30%.

The BellTower: What does such
high participation do for OES?

Kris: Even if kids don’t have
experience playing a sport, we
encourage them to try it. We make
kids feel good. The students here
are good about making other
students feel good. At OES, sports
help kids learn to balance — not to
stretch themselves too thin. Studies
have shown that sports help kids
get better grades, stay healthier
and learn to be better organized.

The BellTower: How do you define
responsible competition?

▲ OES Athletics Director Kris Van
Hatcher '70 challenged Headmaster
Peter Stevens to a friendly game of
basketball at the January re-opening
ofSPARC.
The BellTower: Why are sports
important to our philosophy of
education?
Kris: Sports also teach kids reality,
commitment and how to cope with
pressure. Sports are like life. If you
don’t come to practice, you don’t
play; if you don’t come to work, you
get fired. As with having a job,
participating in sports requires being
on time, coping with winning/losing,
improving skills and working as part
of a team.
The BellTower: What do you
mean by a “meaningful physical
activity” as stated in your
program goals?

Kris: In order for sports to be
meaningful, kids need ownership,
fun, structure, ways to measure
improvement and the teamwork of
pulling it all together so the experi­
ence is good — win or lose.

The BellTower: What about
winning and losing?
Kris: You can only practice so long
before you need to test yourself
against someone else. The “thrill’’ of
competition is healthy — the pre­
game butterflies are actually good
for you. When I interview coaches, I
say “the kids need to have fun and
be well organized. Coaches need to

14

Kris: I have a list of criteria that
includes good coaches, being pre­
pared, safety, both team and personal
achievement goals for kids and
worthwhile effort.

The BellTower: What does participa­
tion do for students?
Kris: We all know kids have a lot of
energy. Sports allow constructive
release and help kids cope with
academic stress. There’s also camara­
derie, discipline, commitment, respon­
sibility and learning to win as well as
lose. Sports complement what
happens in the classroom.

The BellTower: What competitive
sports do we offer?
Kris: In the Upper School we offer
soccer, cross country, basketball,
skiing, tennis, track and fencing for
both boys and girls, and volleyball for
girls. In the Middle School we have
soccer, basketball, tennis, track and
fencing for boys and girls as well as
volleyball for girls.
The BellTower: How about facili­
ties?

Kris: We have outstanding facilities.
And it helps the program — particularly
SPARC (The OES Sports and Recre­
ation Center) for tennis. SPARC has 3
indoor tennis courts, four outdoor
courts, a basketball court, 2 racquetball
courts, a fencing room and a studio/
exercise room. We have the allweather Yanagitani Track with a 6lane, 400-meter, latex polyurethane
surface. There are three soccer fields.
And in the main gymnasium we have a
basketball court, weight room and a
movement-exercise room.

Fund Raising Standards High at
OES
Ethical standards in fund raising
today have come under close
scrutiny, so perhaps you may have
wondered about Oregon Episcopal
School’s policies and procedures for
institutional advancement. Amid a tide
of eroding trust and confidence in
society, OES stands tall and proud.
Firmly grounded in the School’s own
values and traditions, we also
subscribe to ‘The Principals of Good
Practice” held by the National
Association of Independent Schools
and the code of the National Society
of Fund Raising Executives.

The OES Development Program
strives to exemplify the best qualities
of the institution and the highest
standards of personal and profes­
sional conduct. Everyone involved in
our development operations adhere
to the following principals of good
practice, are motivated by positive
forces to improve the cause they
serve and seek to inspire others
through their own sense of dedication
and high purpose.

“The Sisters were very kind,”
Beatrice Thurston Paget ’15
recalled. “I’ll never forget arriving at
the Hall. Here I was, a perfect
stranger, and Sister Elisa Monica
walked right up to me and kissed
me on the cheek to welcome me. It
was just the right effort. A very nice
transition from my home in Wells.”
Bom in 1896, Beatrice’s early
school-age memories were of the
one-room school she walked to
each day, dinner pail in hand.

Beatrice Thurston Pagel ’15
Though she was accustomed to the
rural community of Wells, Oregon,
the decision to attend St. Helens
Hall was an easy one for Beatrice
and her family. “We lived in an area
where there was no adequate
education. The Bishop’s [Benjamin
Wistar Morris] idea of providing a
place where people like me could go
to continue their education was so
wonderful."
And so, Beatrice became a
boarding student at St. Helens Hall.
She attended the Hall for three

years before her graduation in 1915.
“As a boarder, everything was
scheduled. We had so many
activities. We were always going on
hikes; the Sisters used to walk every
day. We had chapel every day,
played ping-pong, and every night
after dinner, the girls danced. Since
it was all girls, you were very
popular if you could lead. A number
of the Sisters didn’t think we should
dance on Sunday, but Sister Elisa
Monica insisted that it was much
healthier for us to dance than to sit
around and gossip.”
In the summer of 1914, the Vista
St. Clair building burned. Though no
one was hurt, there would only be
limited space available the following
year. For this reason, the only
students allowed to return were
those who had planned to graduate
in the class of 1915. “Those of us
allowed to return lived in the
Bishop’s house on 19th and Elm. It
was very intimate with just our class
and 2 or 3 sisters," Beatrice
recalled.
Life with the Sisters, however, was
not always easy. They were quite
strict and took their responsibility for
parenting young girls very seriously.
“We were very protected. When we
went out, we were expected to have
a chaperone — either a sister or a
teacher,” Beatrice recalled. “And
there were so many rules. We
always thought they had eyes in the
back of their heads.”
Remembering her years at the
Hall, Beatrice said, “It was a
wonderful experience. So much a
part of my life. I’m grateful for what
the School gave me. I’m not afraid
of anything — I’ll try anything."
Following her graduation from St.
Helens Hall, Beatrice found work
with Ellison-White, arranging
Chautauqua bookings. Originally
founded in 1874, this Chautauqua,
New York based organization grew
to more than 400 groups nation­
wide. The “chautauquas”, as they
were called, were one of the first
organizations to pay fees to
speakers, thus they attracted
notable speakers and supplied
culture-hungry small towns with
symphony concerts, operas, plays
and lectures.
While attending college, Beatrice
did advance work for the lecturers
and performers who traveled the
circuit. “During WWI we travelled to
Australia and New Zealand. I can
18

still remember discussing the future of
Chautauqua with Mr. Ellison who
predicted, ‘If radio ever gets started, it’ll
be the end of Chautauqua’.” Mr. Ellison
was right. After reaching its peak in
1924, the success of the chautauquas
declined. Radio and the increased
mobility made possible by the automo­
bile contributed to the decline of the
chautauquas’ popularity.
Despite its ultimate demise, Beatrice
said, “Chautauqua was the biggest
event in my life.” Not only did Beatrice
have an opportunity to travel — an
option open to few women at that time
— but she met her husband, Lowell
Paget, who was also an Ellison-White
employee.
They wed in 1919, but not without
certain conditions laid down by
Beatrice’s mother. “Mother said I could
get married only if I continued to go to
school. I had to graduate.” So Beatrice
and Lowell enrolled together in the
Northwestern School of Law in 1921. “It
was fun. I was one of only three
women in the class, so we women had
a little more attention. The professor
used to say ‘I can see the wife is the
smart one’.”
When asked whether or not the
professor’s compliment was fitting,
Beatrice modestly responded, “I did a
lot of theory, but Lowell was working
full time for the Paget Mortgage
Company, so he had a better under­
standing of what was going on outside
school. Also, I was able to concentrate
on school, while Lowell had to work.”
After graduating in 1924, Beatrice
joined Lowell. ‘We were very fortunate
to be able to work together at the Paget
Mortgage Company.” The following
year the Paget’s first child was bom,
and as the family continued to grow
(four more children were bom in the
next 14 years), the demands of family
life took Beatrice away from full-time
legal practice.
In 1932, Lowell ran for a seat in the
Oregon Legislature, which he won, and
in 1935, Beatrice became state
president of the Oregon League of
Women Voters. While serving in this
capacity, she successfully lobbied for
passage of Aid to Families with
Dependent Children, arguing that
rather than separating families, the
mothers should receive the support
they need to keep their children at
home.
Beatrice attributes her many suc­
cesses and activities to “good parents,
good health and good people along the
way".

�In conjunction with Reunion
Weekend in June, the birthday could
conclude with a Music and Arts
Festival on the OES campus for the
entire community.

PRESIDENT’S
CORNER
It is hard for me to believe that my
first year as Alumni Board President
is complete. I have enjoyed meeting
so many of you and look forward to
seeing even more of you at events in
the year to come.

Our April Alumni Board meeting
focused on the School’s upcoming
125th birthday in 1994. We came up
with some great thoughts to com­
memorate this momentous occasion!
The celebration will begin in the fall of
1994 and culminate in June of 1995.
The Alumni Association will work with
a committee of students, parents,
trustees, faculty and staff in planning
a year long celebration. The birthday
will officially kick off on the first day of
school in September of 1994. A gala
Founder’s Day dinner in November
will bring all alumni, friends and
family together for a festive evening.

Some of the plans in the works
include a commemorative seal,
designed to unite St. Helens Hall,
Bishop Dagwell Hall and Oregon
Episcopal School for introduction
next year, publications and
notecards featuring the seal, limited
edition sketches and a possible
book emphasizing the past 25
years.
I hope many of you will want to
become involved with our 125th
birthday. This is an unique and
exciting opportunity for all alumni, to
show our loyalty and share wonder­
ful memories of our school days in
such a grand way. I hope to see
many of you involved in this project,
and if you are called upon to help, I
hope you will give freely of your
time.
I am happy to report that our two
new alumni events, Alumni Night at
the Theater and After Hours have

Jean Ladehoff dies February 22
Jean Arthur Ladehoff, wife of The
Rt. Rev. Robert L. Ladehoff, Bishop
of Oregon, died February 22 in
Portland of cancer.

A memorial service was held
February 29 at the Cathedral of St.
John the Baptist, Portland. The Rt.
Rev. Jerry A. Lamb, Bishop of
Northern California, was the
celebrant. Bishop Lamb had served
as executive assistant to Ladehoff
until his election as bishop. The Rt.
Rev. Rustin Kimsey, Bishop of
Eastern Oregon, was the preacher.
I"
Jean Arthur
Ladehoff
1930-1992

A second memorial service was
held March 4 in St. Andrew’s
Episcopal Church, Durham, North
Carolina, her family church. The Rt.
Rev. Hunt Williams, Suffragan
Bishop of North Carolina — a long­
time friend of the family — was the
celebrant.

Jean Arthur was bom November
28, 1930, in Durham, NC. She
taught school in North Carolina
after her graduation from Duke
University. She also taught in
Washington, D.C., prior to her
marriage.

The Ladehoffs moved to Oregon
six years ago when Bishop
Ladehoff was elected. Jean
Ladehoff accompanied her
husband on his visitations through­
out the Diocese and shared
actively in his ministry in many
ways. She also served as presi­
dent of the Friends of William
Temple House, a Portland-based
Episcopal counseling agency.

In addition to her husband, Mrs. Ladehoff
is survived by her son Robert L.
Ladehoff, Jr., of Orlando, Florida, and a
sister, Frances Richardson, of Durham.
Remembrances are suggested as
donations to the Diocese of Oregon’s
Triangle Lake Conference Center, care
of the Diocese of Oregon, PO Box 467,
Lake Oswego, Oregon 97034. The
Ladehoffs met as young people at a
church camp in North Carolina, and this
ministry was a very important one to her
all her life.

OES named beneficiary of charitable remainder
annuity tmst
OES was recently informed that
Elizabeth Reeves SHH ’32/JC ’35
made a substantial gift in the form
of a charitable remainder annuity
trust, and named Oregon Episcopal
School as the recipient of the
principal of the Trust upon her
death.
When a charitable remainder
annuity trust is created, the donor
turns over cash, marketable
securities or other assets to a
trustee. The donor, or a selected
beneficiary, receives a fixed annual
payment for life. In this case, the
remaining trust assets eventually
pass to OES for use in accordance
with the donor’s wishes.
Following a brief visit to campus in
September with her sister, Margaret
Reeves Yick SHH ’30/JC ’33, Beth
Reeves moved into a retirement
community in Cupertino, California.
In a letter to Headmaster Peter
Stevens announcing the gift, she
requested that OES accept this gift
on behalf of both her and Margaret.

“We are pleased to honor Beth’s
intentions, and thrilled with her
confidence in our wonderful
School. Current and future OES
students benefit because of the
thoughtful support and vision of
people like Beth Reeves,” said
Peter.

News of this nature brings great
excitement to the OES Commu­
nity. When received, this gift will
help assure a financially strong
and educationally sound School
for the future. Perhaps even more
important is the signal it sends to
our community that education is of
paramount importance, worthy of
substantial long-term support.
There are a number of ways an
individual can make a lasting
legacy to OES. Some are espe­
cially appealing because they
provide the support necessary to
continue and enhance the

OREGON
EPISCOPAL
SCHOOL

School’s mission, while offering
substantial benefits to donors. All
play a significant role in securing the
School’s future.
Bequests need not be large. As the
total of Annual Giving to OES
demonstrates, it is the cumulative
efforts of many donors and various
amounts which build our endowment
and secure our stability year after
year.
The School recognizes and respects
that bequest intentions are a
personal matter, which should be
kept in strictest confidence. Knowl­
edge of a donor’s intentions, how­
ever, is helpful to financial planning.
We recommend those considering
such a gift seek legal/financial
counsel. For more information on
planned giving opportunities, please
call or write the Development Office.

�Students design OMSI exhibit on
salmon
Retna Surya — began with an April
14 field trip to OMSI to meet with the
exhibit design staff. OMSI designers
shared their insights of the design
process and the challenge of taking
an idea and translating it into a final
product.

What is it like to be a wild salmon in
the Columbia River Basin? To find
out, come experience an exhibit
created and produced by ninth
grade biology and art students from
OES at the Oregon Museum of
Science and Industry (OMSI) from
May 29 to June 15.

The exhibit will be installed May 2628, with a special exhibit opening for
the OES community on Friday, May
29, from 7-9 pm at OMSI.
Under the direction of OES teachers
Sue Jensen and John LeCavalier
and the OMSI staff, students have
created a salmon-eye view of drift
nets, hydro-electric dams and
gravel-bottomed spawning grounds
— an opportunity to experience the
life-cycle of the anadromous wild
salmon.

This collaborative effort between
Sue’s Art Trek class and John’s
Ecological Biology class — Greg
Coffeen, Joe Ferguson, Alyssa
Gregg, Shane Hoffman, Jesse
LeCavalier, Jason Mehr, Aaron
Murray, Jon Reali, Jessica Reuther,
Zach Russell, Ethan Scheible and

Following their meeting with OMSI,
the students worked through initial
concepts and designs. Says John,
“The small group process inherent
in the project gave them a unique
opportunity for collaborative
decision-making.” After the students
had preliminary exhibit designs, two
designers from OMSI — Greg
Garrett and Patricia Thornton —
visited the OES campus for critique
sessions.

The Biology students, acting as the
writing and research team began
their work with support text. “The
group editing required to distill one
page of text into one paragraph of
careful, age-appropriate language is
a challenge not often encountered
at such an early age,” says John of
the process some students found
quite challenging.

I think, too, of leaders these pages
have featured before: Ruth Jenkins
*20 who went on to lead the way
for the education of young people
in Episcopal-related schools on the
West Coast.

A Letter from
the Headmaster
Dear Friends,
The story of Oregon Episcopal
School, of St. Helens Hall and
Bishop Dagwell Hall, is one of
inspired leadership by so many,
many women and men. This
issue of the BellTower carries
more vignettes to you, touch­
stones in this almost-125-year
story, this continuum of extraordi­
nary education.
People, of course, make up the
stories of this school: Bishop
Morris who founded the Hall over a
century ago. The Rodney sisters,
who carried on the work of The
Hall, along with Gertrude Fariss,
along with the story of The Rev.
David Leech, so eloquently por­
trayed in this issue by Sally James
*73 in her wonderful 20-year-old
“th.ank-you letter”. Harvey Zendt,
dynamic Lower School Head,
venturing off to Australia to test the
waters for a Pacific Rim exchange
with an Anglican school there.
Commander Elizabeth Reeves *32
SHH &amp; *35 JC, who led the way in
astronaut training for the United
States Navy. And this BellTower
carries a note about Trustee Paul
Schlesinger *70, who makes time
in his own professional and family
life to bring so much character,
strength and leadership to our
Board of Trustees with his service
on the Executive Committee.

You will read here, too, of
Summerbridge, a fascinating new
program that brings middle school
youth of Portland to our campus
under the leadership of Edward
Liu, a 1992 graduate of Yale
University, and his counterpart at
The Catlin Gabel School, Oye Carr.
Youthful leadership here has given
us new zest, purpose and direc­
tion. Together Ed and his co-director have raised over $200,000,
selected 35 Portland-area fifth
graders from an applicant pool well
over twice that and chosen the
most promising student-teachers
from across the nation.
This wonderful school community
gives birth to, rears, supports, nur­
tures and challenges leaders. And
such it should be. I hope in these
pages in the future you’ll meet
people and characters like Jeff
Marsh, who manages our allimportant food service; like Diana
Chenoweth, who leads probably
the most exciting after-school pro­
gram in the country; like Rich
Sherwood, who has pioneered the
teaching of Japanese in our Upper
School and will lead a student trip
to Japan this summer; like firstyear teacher Moneeka Settles,
who directed our ten-week ski
team this winter; like Rosa
Hemphill, who leads every day in
her Chemistry lab/classrooms; like
David Streight, one of the few
ancient-language Proven^ale spe­
cialists in the world; like Matt
Lyon, preeminent potter currently
specializing in replicas and figures
from pre-historic Japan; like Judy
Lynch who is quietly "writing the
book” about global/interdisciplinary/multicultural studies for mid­
dle school children. What wealth
of leadership we have!

2

This June, Upper School Head Ed
Rubovits will retire after a decade
at OES. Ed follows, of course, in
the rich SHH-BDH-OES tradition of
leadership. He has led before and
he will, no doubt, in years after
OES, continue to lead without fan­
fare, and show grace, style, poise,
character, service and love.
And, you know, at the heart of the
leadership fostered by this remark­
able School are service and love.
At Oregon Episcopal School today,
these are not anachronistic con­
cepts. This is OES.

Most sincerely,

/
Peter W. Stevens
Headmaster

�Funding launches
Summerbridge Portland for 1993
Oregon Episcopal School and
Catlin Gabel School have joined
efforts to offer a program that pre­
pares Portland middle school stu­
dents for the demands of rigorous
high schools and colleges that will
begin in June 1993. This year
Summerbridge Portland will serve
approximately 40 diverse, highpotential seventh grade students
from schools around the city. The
Portland project is co-directed by
Ed Liu of OES and Oye Carr of
Catlin.

Encouraged by the success of the
12 Summerbridge programs
nationwide, The InterPacific Group
of San Francisco has pledged to
support the Portland project over
its first three years with a donation
of $25,000 per year. Locally, The
Meyer Memorial Trust granted
Summerbridge Portland $160,000
over the next three years. Add­
itional funding has come from
First Interstate Bank, Nike, Viking
Industries, the Wheeler Foundation
and individual donors.

t

Founded in 1869. Oregon Episcopal School is a
pre-K through 12, coeducational, independent,
college preparatory school in the Episcopal
tradition. A full boarding program is offered in
grades 9 through 12. Exceptional teachers engage
students in small classes that stress participation,
creativity and a passion for active learning and
living. Within a traditional framework, dynamic
programs in the Gne and performing arts and
athletics encourage student participation. Located
on the Pacific Rim, the School emphasizes global
studies and an international outlook. Virtually all
graduates attend fine colleges. Responsible
citizenship, ethics and community service are
important at OES—a School where students are
encouraged to reach their fullest potential in a
loving and caring environment.

Summerbridge students, who rep­
resent the economic and ethnic
diversity of Portland, have been
recruited through classroom pre­
sentations given by Ed and Oye.
There is no tuition.
Since 1978, when the original
Summerbridge was established at
San Francisco University High
School, twelve other programs
have begun across the country,
with six new programs planned
for this summer. In 1991, The
Summerbridge National Project
was established to give support
and guidance to the individual
programs.

Newsweek Magazine said the pro­
gram was “designed to get the
younger kids into learning and the
older kids into teaching”. Using tal­
ented high school and college stu­
dents as teachers and role models,
Summerbridge provides academi­
cally stimulating summer sessions
which emphasize reading, writing,
mathematics and study skills. The
program also stresses leadership,
heightened self-esteem and cre­
ativity. School-year tutoring, coun­
seling and enrichment ensure con­
tinuing support.

�Lower School goes
The Lower School Global Studies Focus turned its attention
“down under” this year with a study of Australia. For the
Focus, Program Coordinator (and LS Art Teacher) Shelley
Stoffer organized a fantastic series of visits, activities and
information sessions to build excitement and help students
learn about the fascinating history and culture of the
Australian continent.
The Australia Focus kicked off with a presentation where LS
teachers dressed up to represent a different aspect of our
Southern Pacific Rim neighbor. Highlights included 2nd Grade
Teacher Eileen Preston dressed as a kookaburra singing (you
guessed it) the Kookaburra Song, 3rd grade teacher Kathy
Gross as a regal embodiment of the Sydney Opera House and
LS Librarian Patty Walhood who came as Vegimite, the
Australian equivalent of our American standby—peanut butter.

▲ lb is one 's real—Sissy Koo,
a Bennet wallaby, delighted
everyone with her visit.

The first guest speaker was Steve Einhorn, who brought a
didgeridoo—an aboriginal musical instrument. A few lucky
students had a chance to play the didgeridoo, and after the
January 12 presentation, some classes constructed their own
didgeridoos, which they played happily for parents at the
Lower School Open House.

According to Shelley, when Australian teachers Leeann
Doughty and Justine Thompson visited OES and read from
Wombat Stew by Mem Fox—Australia’s most famous chil­
dren’s author, “Even the older kids were laughing their heads
off.” Students from Pre-K through 5 really enjoyed their read­
ing, particularly with Leeann and Justine’s accents. “Even
though they are very humorous and easy going, Leeann and

“Down Under
Justine expected students to be unusually quiet [by American
standards], attentive and to ask good questions. Even the lit­
tle ones.”
While students enjoyed all aspects of the Global Studies
Focus, the two most popular visitors were Sissy Roo and
Lynn Hilbert. Sissy Roo—a Bennett wallaby who has gained
fame starring in local television ads—delighted children and
adults alike as she hopped around the OES Gymnasium.
During her visit, students literally held their breaths to keep
quiet and not startle the young marsupial, proving they can,
indeed, be amazingly quiet.
Though Lynn Hilbert, the final visitor for the Australia Focus,
could not come until March, it was well worth the wait. After
demonstrating how to card, spin and dye wool, Lynn Hilbert
brought out his special “companions”—baby lambs and
goats—who universally enchanted students and teachers.

Next year during the Global Studies Focus, students will
explore China.

�Lower School Head explores exchange
possibilities in Australia
As an outgrowth of this year’s Global Studies Focus on Australia, the Lower School is plan­
ning to set up a variety of exchanges with St. Paul’s School near Melbourne. “Supported
and encouraged by the Anglican Church in Australia”, St. Paul’s was founded in 1856 and is
similar to OES in size and scope. In March Lower School Head Harvey Zendt flew to
Australia to explore possible future interactions with St. Paul’s. He also visited a variety of
schools and took time to catch some surf. According to Harvey, who kept a brief journal on
his trip “down under”, there are no definitive plans yet, but there are a number of exciting
possibilities.

Excerpts from Harvey Zendt’s Australian journal:

▲ Peter Wilson and me

▲ The Minimbah Pool

▲ I tried
a little teaching

Sometimes life works. So far this trip has fallen into place as things rarely do. It’s 530
am and lam watching a brilliant pink pre-dawn sky over the strait, listening to the activity
of the magpies and crickets with occasional reminders from the sheep and cows. .After an
incredibly long flight, my Aussie experience began with a quick trip through customs
(always say you have something to declare) and a friendly greeting from Peter Wilson from
St. Paul’s.
Peter Wilson’s school Minimbah (“a place of learning in Aborigine”) is a cozy, alive
campus for 200 children, ages 4-11, located on the outskirts of Frankston, a smalt city of
20,000 on the Mornington Peninsula...
I am struck by the openness ofMinimbah... the mild weather allows for a more commu­
nalfeeling. It doesn’t quite have the facilities we do in some areas, but in others it is better—
art studios, swimming pool, compact campus.
There is no real financial aid program... but they receive tremendous support from the
state—1-3 thousand per child, so their needfor development is less...
The classrooms are ALIVE-—walls covered, animals, etc...
We drove out to the peninsula to Peter’s 300-acre cattle and sheep farm...
I borroived a “Trigger Bros. ” board from a shop and bad a good go [at surfing]. ..so nice
to be in warm water again... between surfsessions, saw a country school—not wellfunded
but cheerful...
Talked shop at dinner with Peter’s two assistants...

Farewell dinner at hotel... the only eating establishment within 20 km... included a true

and individuals had been formed. I hope to encourage others at OES to further this new
relationship.

—a remarkable kind of learning
\AZ
happens when a group of
V V students join the Head of the

Upper School to spend a week in
March cycling through the San
Juans, another group goes with
the Director of Experiential
Education for backpacking in the
Utah Canyonlands, an US English
teacher takes students mountain
biking around the Portland area
and the ESL director shares quilt­
ing secrets? The answer is sim­
ple—Winterim.
Each year, Upper School students,
faculty and staff take a week to
explore opportunities for learning
which are not offered in the regular
academic program. While fresh­
men and sophomores travel the
world, take cooking or unlock the
mysteries of stained glass artistry,
seniors explore career options
through Discovery, an experiential
apprenticeship program which is
required for graduation.

The hands-on learning experiences
inherent in Discovery offer unique
opportunities to develop skills and
attitudes which aid in the identifi­
cation of realistic career choices.
Discovery also helps bridge the

▲ Vince Staffer and Ben Cbessar help Gary Crossman check a tentfor their

gap between School and profes­
sional life—allowing students a
first-hand glimpse at careers they
may only have read about in the
past. Students are responsible for
identifying an organization, busi­
ness or non-profit agency they
would like to work with and then
designing their own project. Elena
Jakubiak, for example, is very
interested in theatre, so she spent
a week working with Tygre’s Heart,
a Portland-based Shakespearean
theatre group.

For Juniors, Winterim is used
for College Decisions—a pro­
gram designed to introduce
and/or familiarize juniors with
the college search and appli­
cation process. An important
part of the OES curriculum for
more than 10 years, College
Decisions acquaints juniors
with resource materials, tech­
niques and the college visita­
tion and interviewing process.

J

▲ Ed Rnbouitz and Kay Washington work
together at the Winterim bike clinic.

Since College Decisions is a
half-day course, juniors also
participate in other half-day
classes offered during
Winterim. Like many students
who prefer to remain in
Portland during Winterim,
juniors had a variety of selec­
7

tions from which to choose: Middle
Eastern cooking, beginning sailing,
woodworking and how to make
research data dazzling, to name
just a few.

In addition to the 15 half-day and
full-day courses offered on cam­
pus, eight different trips introduced
students to a variety of areas in the
world beyond OES.

The enthusiasm of both student
and adult Winterim participants is
contagious. After returning from an
archaeological site in Arizona
where students were kept busy
digging for artifacts and branding
cattle, Rich Sherwood, who teach­
es Japanese and coaches the Girls
Varsity Basketball Team, said “I’m
sure it was the greatest Winterim
ever. The trip was great; the kids
were great. It was just fantastic."
Though others might hold that their
experiences were “the greatest",
there is little doubt that Winterim
‘93 succeeded in giving students
and teachers the opportunity to
explore learning in enjoyable new
contexts, as well as broadening
perspectives and horizons.

Upper School science students explore current
events through mock hearings
“We’re talking stewardship not domain.”
“Jobs are more important than some stupid bird or fish.”
“If we only worry about the human species, and nothing else, we’ll all die.”
Students continued to hotly
debate the question “Should the
Endangered Species Act be
changed?” as they filed out of
the Mock Public Hearing, held
annually as part of John
LeCavalier’s 9th grade biology
class. The passions of Upper
School students who had been
part of the audience at the public
hearing on Tuesday, February 2,
had obviously been fired.

The February hearing opened with
an introduction by the mock con­
gressional committee, charged
with final responsibility for deter­
mining whether or not the law
should be changed, and if it
should be changed, what those
changes should be. The commit­
tee explained the agenda for the
mock hearing and advised partici­
pants to keep in mind that this
was not a forum for debate.

Such reaction doesn’t surprise
John, who requires his students to
research issues at the fore of the
public conscious each year. John
selected the Endangered Species
Act (ESA) because it will go to
congressional committee this year
for reauthorization. “We’ve done
the spotted owl and the salmon in
past years. The ESA is a real issue
this year; it’s pretty timely.”

Due to the depth of the legal
issues involved in the ESA, the
first group to present was
charged with explaining the legal
aspects of the issue—information
they felt was essential to discus­
sion of the ESA.

The “public hearing” is the culmi­
nation of weeks of research on the
part of students. After John
selects the topic, students work
together, brainstorming to create a
list of potential special interest
groups who they think might be
in this case,
involved in the issu&lt;
groups included the Sierra Club,
Bonneville Power Administration,
Native American Tribes, National
Marine Fisheries Service and
Weyerhauser. As representatives
of these organizations, small
groups of students gather informa­
tion to support their positions.

Since information on some of the
organizations was limited, stu­
dents personally contacted many
of the selected special interest
groups for additional facts. After
completing the research phase,
the small groups prepared brief,
two-minute presentations for the
mock public hearing.

Presentations by the special
interest groups went smoothly
until a group of irate loggers,
(represented by fellow students
in stereotypical buffalo plaid) inter­
rupted the hearing during the
Sierra Club’s presentation. Sierra
Club presenters quickly recovered,
and the hearing continued.

After the students had concluded
their presentations, the “public”
was invited to speak. Opinions ran
the full gamut. Though John
expects his students to make a
decision based purely on biologi­
cal, as opposed to environmental,
data, ninth grader Kay Washington
observed, “This is a multi-faceted
issue involving more that just
those who are for it and those who
are against it.”

In addition to increasing students’
awareness of career opportunities
and familiarity with the environ­
mental and economic issues sur­
rounding controversial issues like
the Endangered Species Act,
this unit provides “a chance to
organize thoughts and speak in
front of a large group. Since
they’ve learned about energy flow
and bio-diversity, I want them to
pursue this issue from a biological
rather than an environmental
view,” explains John.

"From the biological perspective, it
is imperative that students use
hard scientific data to support
their positions, particularly on
issues like the Endangered
Species Act, since special interest
groups often gain influence based
on economic or emotional
appeals. People often confuse the
two arguments—biological versus
environmental, or scientific as
opposed to special interest argu­
ments. If you believe in science,
however, you have to believe the
ecologists (who are scientists and
are not to be confused with envi­
ronmentalists). In many cases,
whether we like it or not, the facts
are there; I know this as a biolo­
gist. Economic issues, however,
often persuade people that the
scientists aren’t legitimate.”
One of the most insightful obser­
vations came from Junior Mikael
Sterner, who is from Sweden.
Mikael, who had been part of the
legal group said, “It seems that
this is becoming an issue of the
Environmentalists vs. Industry,
but life is not black and white.
People need to recognize there
are grey areas. Since we can’t do
everything right, it’s time to focus
on compromise.”

curriculum. “It’s very important
that science classes tackle current
events from a scientific perspec­
tive,” Joan explained. “With the
Timber Summit, we had an issue
that’s receiving both local and
national attention. Students need
to know how science affects cur­
rent events. After all, science is
basically trying to make sense out
of the world around us.”
Students began studying the
issues surrounding the Forest
Summit when they returned to
School on Monday, March 29. In
preparation for their forest sum­
mits, which were staggered from
April 2-5, Joan and Tye had gath­
ered pertinent articles for students
to read. Students then prepared
presentations for their classmates.

The OES Forest Summits—sepa­
rate summits for each Middle
School class—lasted two days. To
create the most realistic summit,
Joan and Tye devised roles for
each student, basing these roles
on real people but altering their
names. Each student had three
minutes to present her/his testi­
mony, followed by a three minute
question period. Three students
from each class, chosen randomly,
represented President Bill Clinton,
Vice-President Al Gore and Interior
Secretary Bruce Babbitt and
Agriculture Secretary Mike Espy,
who became a combined charac­
ter: “Bryce Espitt”.
With the varied dynamics of differ­
ent classes, the decisions were
mixed. Though four of Tye’s five
classes "leaned toward conserva­
tion” the fifth group was much
more pro-timber. According to Tye,
although one group did decide to
put a ban on logging exports,
most of the groups chose to con­
centrate on specific recommenda­
tions (e.g. no logging within a cer­
tain number of feet from a stream)
“While most of them created some
sort of specific recommendation
on how much old growth could be
harvested, these recommenda­
tions varied. One group allowed
harvesting dead or dying old
growth while another opted for
selective removal. A third, innova­
tive option proposed the creation
of cycles in new timber growth to
develop new old growth forests.”

Since the testimony varied, it was
inevitable that the conclusions,
too, would vary. Yet, regardless of
the decisions, the Mock Forest
Summits gave students a unique
opportunity to apply scientific
principles to current events.

Students in Upper School Biology
Teacher John LeCavalier’s Wetlands
Ecology course are involved in an excit­
ing project, thanks to a S3,150 grant
from the Metropolitan Greenspaces
Education program of METRO.
Together with third graders, they are
producing a video featuring the OES
Marsh which focuses on the water qual­
ity and flood control values of wetlands.
The US students scripted, directed and
filmed the younger students.
OES was also fortunate to have Larry
Johnson from the Northwest Film and
Video Center’s Video/Filmmakers-inSchools program instruct US
students in the wide range of skills
required to produce an educational
video. During May, Larry came to OES
about four times a week to guide and
instruct the US students—Adam Price,
Pam Bowler, Ibong Subagio. Ali Ajami,
Fredy Surya, Courtney Sherwood. Lisa
Hayward, Zanette Johnson and Elliot
deBruin.
In addition to studying the art of
video production, the US students
learned about third graders—observing
third grade classrooms and reading
age-appropriate curriculum guides in
order to effectively interact with the
younger OESians. As part of the regular
curriculum, OES third grade students
study the wetlands both in the fall and
spring to leam about water quality,
plants and animal life. Visits to the OES
Marsh and Woods Creek wetlands on
campus allow them to practice scientif­
ic observation.
Script writing and other pre-produc­
tion activities for the video were done
by the first week in May. and the
actual filming took place during the re­
mainder of the month. Over the sum­
mer, John will work with Larry'Johnson
and student volunteers to edit the raw
footage. Educational support documen­
tation to accompany the video will also
be developed and written.
In the fall, OES students and teach­
ers, together with representatives from
the Unified Sewerage Agency of
Washington County (USA), will make
presentations at several area schools.
Copies of the video will also be distrib­
uted to other schools and groups inter­
ested in the importance of urban wet­
lands.

Anne Cass to head
Upper School

▲ Anne Cass

Anne B. Cass, who is currently
Director of Studies at the Derryfield
School in Manchester, New
Hampshire, has accepted appoint­
ment as the next Head of the
Upper School at OES. Derryfield is
an independent college preparato­
ry school enrolling about 300 stu­
dents in grades 7-12.

Anne, who is looking forward to
OES and loves to write, describes
herself as “a leader who can work
with people, directing when neces­
sary, to create an ordered but
relaxed atmosphere, friendly cli­
mate and enthusiastic morale
behind a clear mission.”
She also admits that she is “a
good listener who responds to
chaos by creating order.” She
writes, “I’ve been coordinating
all my life, and have learned to
balance my professional and per­
sonal priorities. As a child, I
demonstrated determination and
recognized the importance of
order. As a high school student I
discovered I liked connections
among people, and in college and
graduate school, I developed my
respect for the clarity and power of
language. A career in teaching
English seemed natural; combining
it with administering to the needs
of people in a school’s community
is what I like and do well.”

A graduate of Colby College in
Maine, Anne holds an MA in English
from the The Bread Loaf School of
English at Middlebury College.
She began her teaching career in
public schools in Vermont and New
Hampshire, and then taught
English and served as college
counselor at Cushing Academy in
Massachusetts, where she also
lived in the school dormitory. There,
she worked with both American and
international students in a college
preparatory program.
At Derryfield, Anne’s responsibili­
ties have included academic
scheduling, curriculum develop­
ment, hiring, evaluation, counsel­
ing and teaching. She has served
as a school evaluator for the New
England Association of Schools
and Colleges, has been active in
the Council for Women in
Independent Schools. Anne is a
graduate of the Harvard Health
Services counseling institute and
has both written and presented on
various pedagogical topics.

Says OES Headmaster Peter W.
Stevens, “Anne brings us consider­
able professionalism and a love for
schools, for students and for
teachers.” Anne and her husband
Richard, a free-lance writer, will
move to Portland in the summer.

Anne was selected after a national
search that brought four final can­
didates to campus in January.
Students, faculty and parents par­
ticipated in the search process.

“Anne brings us energy, wisdom,
experience, a passion for being at
OES, international experience, a
commitment to student intellectual,
artistic, moral and ethical growth,
tremendous enthusiasm and more,
much more.” says Peter. “I know
you will join me in welcoming her!”

�LouAnn and her “assistant chaplain” teach love

f

“They couldn’t keep us away," Lower
School Chaplain LouAnn Pickering
recalled. “My husband, kids and I visit­
ed once a week. Right up to the day we
were supposed to pick him up, we still
hadn’t decided. On the 49th day,
though, when we went to get him, he
made the decision for us. He looked up
with those eyes that said ‘I'm the one’.’’
Those who know LouAnn realize that
she’s talking about that special day in
June of 1991 when the Pickering family
welcomed a four-pound standard poo­
dle puppy into their home. Few people
realized the impact this little white bun­
dle of love would have on the communi­
ty outside the Pickering home.
"On the way home, we were trying to
think of creative names when Jim
[LouAnn’s husband] said, ‘I don’t care
what you call him, I’m calling him
Bruce.' I told Jim there was no way he
was going to call him ‘Bruce’, but every
time Jim saw him, he’d say ‘Bruce’, and
the puppy wagged his tail and seemed
to love it. So, much to my dismay, and
not my choice, he had his name. It was
really Bruce’s choice."
Though impressed by their intelli­
gence—citing a recent study that
demonstrated standard poodles have
the vocabulary comprehension and
problem-solving skills of a 7-year old
human child. “I got Bruce in the first
place to complement my ministry. I
knew how powerful the animal stories I
told were, and I had read a number of
articles in psychiatric journals which
pointed to the benefits of animals.” So,
just one week after joining the Pickering
family, Bruce made his first visit to OES.
In his first two years at OES, Bruce
has been such a help that he now holds
the official title of Assistant Chaplain.
“He’s helped me so much. A lot of
times, kids won’t want to talk, but while
loving Bruce, they begin to talk to him.
He breaks down barriers."
LouAnn believes Bruce benefits
equally from their joint ministry, con­
vinced that standard poodles need to
be employed to be happy. Though he
has regular jobs at home—retrieving the
newspaper and waking the kids with a
friendly face-licking—Bruce is most
happy at OES. On those days when she
is unable to bring Bruce to OES,
LouAnn says he “picks up his ball,
slinks back to his bed and gives me that
'how could you leave me?’ look.”
With Bruce’s mission, which LouAnn
defines as "making people feel loved
and appreciated, loving and being loved

and providing calm, softness and
friendship", it comes as little surprise
that LouAnn would find a way to
expand their ministry beyond OES.
LouAnn heard about Dove Lewis in
June of 1992. Though the Dove Lewis
Memorial Emergency Veterinary Clinic is
primarily recognized for its work in
emergency and critical care for pets,
this clinic is fast establishing an out­
standing reputation for its pet visitor
program.
The process involved in becoming
part of the Dove Lewis program is
intense. After filling out the application,
LouAnn and Bruce visited the Dove
Lewis Facility, where program organizers
observed Bruce’s temperament, obedi­
ence and skills. He passed with flying
colors.
There was no question in LouAnn’s
mind that Bruce, whose strong point is
children, would be most effective if such
a role could be found. After another
observation—this time by the director of
the Dove Lewis Pet Visitor Program—
everyone agreed that LouAnn and Bruce
should visit Doernbecher Children’s
Hospital and the Neurology ward at
Oregon Health Sciences University
(OHSU). So Bruce faced his next test.
This time LouAnn and Bruce met with the
director at OHSU, who checked Bruce
for temperament, obedience and cleanli­
ness. After passing this test, Bruce was
finally introduced to the ward. "He was
so clearly calm and together," LouAnn
recalls, pride evident in her voice.
After their first visit, LouAnn returned
to her classes at OES and discussed
the experiences she and Bruce had
shared. While Bruce lay quietly at her
feet, LouAnn slowly wove her story for
the spellbound students in Marilyn
Connell’s first grade class.
She began by thanking the students
for helping Bruce and her to do some­
thing very special. First, she told of the
man who had brain surgery, explaining
that, since the man couldn’t talk, his
wife told LouAnn how much the man
missed his own dog who wasn’t
allowed to visit him in the hospital.
Bruce, seemed to sense just what the
man was feeling, put his paws up on the
bed and licked the man's hand. LouAnn
concluded this story by telling her lis­
teners, “The man had tears on his
cheeks, but he was smiling," she said.
“Then I went up to Doernbecher
where we visited with kids,” she contin­
ued. “This is where you helped me. The
children who were in the hospital held

the ball and took turns throwing the ball,
just like you taught him, and Bruce
caught it. He shook hands with them.
You helped us with all of this."
LouAnn’s special gift for working with
children is obvious. Though she
describes her student teaching experi­
ences as being “so horrible I decided to
go into public relations", LouAnn
returned to the job years later as a
/have an
Sunday School teacher. “After a while, I
extraordinary
realized my love for children was as
job.
I get to
strong as ever, so I spoke with Father
tell stories
Roy [Coulter, Dean of the Cathedral
Church of St. John the Baptist]. I shared
and collect
my plans with him, explaining that,
hugs.
while I wanted to teach, I wanted to do
it within the framework of the Gospels.”
The rest, as they say, is history. Later
that same day, Father Roy told LouAnn
to "get down to OES because the
Lower School was looking for a
Chaplain. I auditioned for
the job—telling a story to
the Kindergarten, 3rd and
5th grade classes—and
was hired.” Eight years
later, she remains passion­
ate about her position.
“When I was hired, I basi­
cally wrote the job
description, creating as I
▲ LouAnn Pickering and Bruce
went. I’m lucky to have a
job where I'm working in the ministry.
There are chaplains in Episcopal
schools but very few lay people. I have
an extraordinary job. I get to tell stories
and collect hugs.”
“I feel we are all called to work
toward health...to pursue a healthy
body, mind and spirit. It’s most impor­
tant for me to be honest about who I am
when working with the kids. I share the
tough things, like when my first dog
died, and they saw my sorrow and my
tears. It makes it easier for them to
understand that we all struggle. In this
way we can share it all—the good and
the bad."
As she looks toward the future,
LouAnn’s plans continue to expand. She
now has the endorsement of the Cath­
edral and is an aspirant for Holy Orders.
One problem remains to be resolved:
Oregon has no seminary, and three
years of seminary are required. “In order
to do this, I would have to travel and be
away, so I don’t know how this is going
to happen. I don’t know when it’s going
to happen. But that’s ok. If it is to be, it
will have to be healthy for me and my
OREGON
family."

tour—visited the OES campus
on Wednesday, March 3, the
OES Gym was transformed
into an 1890s pioneer settle­
ment. Students in grades
Kindergarten to Grade 5 had a
unique opportunity to journey
back in time to life 100 years
ago—a learning experience not
found between the pages of a
textbook. During their journey,
students explored the self-suf­
ficient life style of America’s
pioneers through hands-on
exhibits.
The eight individual learning
centers, complete with dis­
plays of historical artifacts,
included the Kitchen, where
students churned butter,
ground wheat and rolled bread
dough and Pa’s Daily Living,

Parents join students for ceremonial Native American feast
Each year, 4th grade students at OES invite parents to join them for a Potlatch—a ceremonial
feast among Indian tribes living on the Northwest Pacific Coast. This year, students gathered on
Wednesday, March 17, for their Potlatch.
During the Potlatch ceremony, the host distributes gifts requiring reciprocation. (Potlatch is
derived from the Chinook/Nootka word for gift patshatl.) Together with the entire 4th grade, Chief
Alex Ames shared “the tribe’s” wealth with the parent tribe and Krishna Potluri, was the speaker
for the day.
Dressed in blankets and bare feet—the entire 4th grade had a part to play in the Potlatch which
is based on related research projects. Everyone was involved in the gift giving, singing and feast­
ing. Additional highlights included the Full Moon/Half Moon Dance, performed by Julie Grauert
and Melissa Radecki. Students also read legends. James Aslaksen, Kelley Brault, Kelly Kitchel,
Stefanie Kleber, Jake Sunshine and Andrew Weis acted out skits.

State of Oregon v. Stover
Though the case is fictitious, the enthusiasm of high school
students competing in die Oregon Law Related Education Project,
commonly referred to as Mock Trial, was very real. Over 250 stu­
dents from 77 schools throughout Oregon spent months preparing
their cases. Regional competitions, which took place in six areas of
the State in March, narrowed the competition from 77 teams to die
top 21.
Only in its second year as an activity, the OES team gave an
impressive performance at the regional competition, involving stu­
dents Rachel Frank, Erin Boyle, Margaret Spring, Britta Mauritz,
Damien Ritter, Toby Menely, Dan Drinkward, Courtney Kaempf,
Larisa Meisenheimer, Jennifer Thomas, Tyler Freres, Kyle Freres,
Joe Ferguson, Hank Failing, Nancy Whang, David Moser and
Courtney Voelker. They advanced from regionals to the State
Competition.
OES Parents Keith Meisenheimer, a Senior District Attorney for
Multnomah County, and the Honorable Judge Dorothy Baker,
District court Judge for the State of Oregon for Multnomah County,
co-COached this team to the finals. The Mock Trials, held Friday and
Saturday, April 2-3, culminated in a final match between OES and
Grant High School, who placed second in last year’s Mock Trials.
“This competition is unique in many ways. First, students must
prepare cases for both the plaintiff and the defendant, and second,
students role-play all roles including attorneys, witnesses and court
officials in the fictitious trial.”
In the Mock Trial activity, student learning goes far beyond the
workings of the court system. Though skills acquired differ from
one student to the next, videotaping helps students realize differ­
ences between written and verbal communication. The process
also forces them to develop public speaking skills and helps build
self-confidence.

may be a mother, father, sister or brother. Sometimes it’s an aunt or great aunt. In the world of indepen­
dent education, we call the student whose immediate relatives also attended the School, a “legacy". The
dictionary describes a legacy as something of value that is handed on. For each of our legacies, an OES

AMIGOS
AMIGOS. Though the word is
Spanish in origin, most Englishspeaking Americans recognize that it
means friends. To a small but very
dedicated group of American stu­
dents, however, the definition of AMI­
GOS has a meaning far more complex
than this. For them, AMIGOS—short
for Amigos de las Americas—is a
youth-directed, non-profit, interna­
tional, private volunteer organization
composed of high school students
who, over the last 26 years, have
been serving the people of Latin
America in an effort to promote good
health practices.
Since 1965, Amigos has placed
over 15,500 volunteers in 15 Latin
American countries. As the guests of
their host country’s government,
these student health educators pro­
vide vital services that include human
inoculations, community sanitation
and education, dental health, oral
rehydration therapy and education,
community development, environ­
mental education and animal health
and rabies inoculation.
This year, OES students Scott
Kremkau, a junior, and Shane Hoffman,
a sophomore, will spend part of their
summer in Latin America. Their partici­
pation in this program is due, in large
part, to the tireless efforts of Upper
School Head Ed Rubovits. Ed has been
involved in and chaired the local chap­
ter of AMIGOS for the last 10 years.
During his long term commitment
to the AMIGOS program, Ed has
seen, firsthand, how participation in
AMIGOS changes a student’s life.
“Students come with a perspective
about values that only exposure to a
different culture will change. After
AMIGOS they look at the world and
themselves in a different light. They
grow.”
Student Amigos also gain practical
experience. “The program offers rare
opportunities for students, aged 1618, to accept real responsibility, exer­
cise leadership and further cultural
exchange. Don’t fool yourself,”
admonishes Ed. “These are opportu­
nities you don’t get working at
McDonalds. This also looks mighty
good on a college application.”
Since the organization is youth

gives dedicated students
a unique
opportunity to help

directed, repeat student volunteers
often move quickly up the ladder of
responsibility, ultimately working as
project directors and liaisons to the
host governments.
In contrast, the adult organizers
(e.g. Ed) seldom have opportunities to
gain the same kind of first hand expe­
rience as student volunteers. So,
when an opportunity to join directors
from other chapters throughout the
United States for a mini-Amigos
experience arose, Ed jumped at the
chance. "I was lucky enough to be
placed high in the Andes," he remem­
bers. “It was a classic experience.
The meals were cooked in a separate
hut over a fire, and they had to clear
the kids out of the bed so I’d have
somewhere to sleep. Going down
there, even for a week, took it out of
the realm of theoretical for me. It
gave us—the adults—a sense of what
the kids go through. We got to see
and hear firsthand both the good and
the bad.”
The AMIGOS program is funded
through the efforts of students, par­
ents and local chapters. With $2945
needed to send a volunteer to Latin
America, students sell grapefruit and
tulips, seek outside contributions and
often contribute their own funds.
AMIGOS criteria for selecting the
countries and the projects is solid:
the volunteer’s health and safety must
be ensured and projects must provide
a sense of accomplishment and satis­
faction for students. Since AMIGOS
only works in a country at the invita­
tion of a host government, it is vital
that volunteers are sufficiently trained
to ensure the cooperation of local
communities. Countries where AMI­
GOS has gone in the past include
Mexico, Costa Rica, Dominican
Republic, Ecuador, Paraguay and
Brazil.
Preparation requires five months of
training. Students take Spanish lan­
guage courses (in addition to the one
year prerequisite), paramedical skills,
human relations—how to get along in
a strange community and different
culture and, finally, they learn about
the unique culture of their host coun­
try. Volunteers must also be prepared
to deal with unusual situations—rules

16

may be different from what they
would expect, or there may be no
rules.
In mid-June, students are paired
with 1-2 partners at their point of
departure—Houston or Miami. At the
conclusion of a 3-4 day in-country
orientation, AMIGOS volunteers are
loaded in the back of a pickup truck
and sent to rural areas where they
begin the jobs for which they have
been trained.
The arrival of an AMIGOS volunteer
in town is quite an event. Since every­
one in the village knows they’re com­
ing, typically, both the host family and
the mayor of the city are on hand for
a greeting ceremony.
For most people here in the United
States, it is difficult to imagine the life
these young volunteers lead. In most
cases there is no electricity or phone
and, sometimes, no sanitation. Yet,
students continue to take part in AMI­
GOS, some for a number of years.
Why? "These are kids with a sense of
adventure—a mix of idealism and
caring about making a difference in
the world,” explains Ed. “Its a self­
selecting group. Typically, these kids
have a lot; they feel they should do
something for others."
On-going communication is essen­
tial since a project is not complete
simply because the latrine has been
built, an area reforested or a tooth
filled. A project is only successful to
the degree that public health is
explained and understood.
Ed often becomes impassioned
when discussing this part of the AMI­
GOS job. “Sure you can dig a latrine,
but if the people don’t understand
why you built it, they’ll just smile
politely, and when you leave, they
won’t use it. Someone has to explain
the basics...if they don’t use the
latrine, they will get diarrhea, which
means dehydration, which leads to
death. A lot of people in developed
countries live under the assumption
that native populations develop
immunity to bacteria; that’s not true.
They just die.
“We all live a pretty good life. If
we can help someone else, then it’s
our duty, as human beings, to do
so—in whatever fashion we can."

�Retiring Upper School Head reflects on years at OES
“When I arrived at OES ten years
ago, it was very small—about 135
students in the Upper School,”
said Upper School Head Ed
Rubovits who is retiring at the end
of this school year. “The program
was modest by today’s standards
and most of the teachers had
taught primarily at OES.” He noted
that the School was “much more
provincial in those days—very
Northwest”.

What about kids? Are they differ­
ent? “I think they continue to
reflect their parents views as well
as contemporary points of view,
as they always have,” he said.
"Some kids are more adventurous
today—more willing to try new
things. And that's good.” Some
things don’t change either, like the
“unofficial official” student quote:
“I’d love to, but I have too much
homework.”

The ensuing 10 years had
their ups and downs. “The
changes have been the most
satisfying,” said Ed. “Most
have occurred in a collegial
atmosphere, where the par­
ticipants have had an invest­
ment in the School’s future.”

Over the years, Ed said that he
has most enjoyed the people who
work here. Originally a native of
Chicago, Ed spent from 1959-82 in
Southwestern schools, including
terms as headmaster at Verde
Valley in Arizona and at Colorado
Rocky Mountain School. “Oregon­
ians are different—kind, gentle,
thoughtful.” he said. “Oregon is
like that, too—the weather, the
landscape. It’s tempting, desirable.
It makes you want to stay.”
Perhaps as a contrast and
because he admits to having
a well-developed sense of
adventure, Ed also enjoys
the rest of the West. “It has
a rough rawness not so
easily found in the Pacific
Northwest.”

“Really I truly believe that
OES is at a wonderful posi­
tion in its history. This means
we can do almost anything.
This is exciting. This forces
us to say what we are about,
to define our goals. This is
harder, I think, than facing
adversity.”

He believes the best change
he has seen is that “opportu­
nities for kids have blos­
somed within the traditional
college prep framework at
OES”. For example when he
first arrived, art was “only an
activity”. Other important
growth areas he sees have
been athletics, a revamped
science curriculum and expe­
riential education. “We have a
vision of what experiential
education can be—beyond
four hiking trips each year.
We give so much time and
energy to these things, it’s
good to see them grow and

pie, was difficult to start but
group.

is now flourishing.” Ed also is
pleased with the increased oppor­
tunities for students to take
responsibility—or not, as he said.
“We recycle ideas in Schools.
Schools are the only place, in fact,
where it is possible to reinvent the
wheel legitimately. With new stu­
dents and new teachers, you have
a new wheel.”
Ed notes that all of this growth and
positive change happened despite
challenges, including the Mt. Hood
accident and a budget shortfall.
“It’s important that the School has
recognized and accepted these—
Mt. Hood particularly—as part of
our history.”

Fun has been another important
component, although he considers
OES to be a “primarily serious
place”. Longmont Turkey Day
stands out in his mind. “It was a
perpetuation of something basical­
ly silly," he said, explaining that it
began when students found turkey
meat stickers left by the kitchen
after preparing a meal. First every­
body just wanted the stickers, then
it grew into an annual event that
included turkey costume and class
gobbling contests—and of course,
turkey for lunch.

In the future, he believes
that OES has a chance to
model the way education can
be in the face of Oregon’s
property tax limitation,
Measure 5. “This is a long­
standing charge of indepen­
dent education. OES has a
role to play."

As for himself, Ed plans to
keep busy, and will continue his
involvement with AMIGOS. (See
related story on page 16.) For the
moment, though, he’s getting
ready to participate in Cycle
Oregon in September. Ed, who is
an avid cyclist, was recently noti­
fied that he was among an “elite
2000" accepted for the well known
cycling tour.

When this letter
from Sally James ‘73
arrived on the OES

campus, it seemed
only fitting that it

should be shared

with the entire
community of the
School. Sally takes
time to reflect back

on a difficult time in

her life when OES
reached out a help­

ing hand to some­
one in need.

Thank you letter recalls 20Twenty years is a long time to wait to write a thank-you letter. Sometimes it takes 20
years to know just what you received. I am writing to thank Oregon Episcopal School.
How does one thank a school? Is a school a collection of people in one place at one time,
or is there a community ethic, or some institutional soul that remains constant through
the years?
I offer my thanks to repay a debt, as a kind of emotional housekeeping and in hopes
that these thanks may offer others a view of the institutional soul of OES.
My story begins on a Wednesday in October of 1972. I was a returning senior, full of
the confidence and self-absorption of youth. I lived with my mother, who was a high­
school teacher, on a Willamette River houseboat. She was looking forward to an empty
nest after a long haul as a single mother of five children. I was ready for college.
Part of my routine was staying late at School to work the switchboard for the dormi­
tories. When I closed up at 11:00 pm, I called mom. I can’t remember what we talked
about. Then, I would close up and spend the night in the dorms to avoid a commute. I
liked this slice of dorm life. It made me feel closer to the boarding students and closer to
college.
Thursday morning I was halfway through my morning classes when students in the
hallway said, “Mr. Wood is looking for you.” I wasn’t alarmed. The principal, Fred Wood,
was trying to quit smoking. He wasn’t buying himself any cigarettes. In those days, stu­
dents were allowed to smoke at School, in an outdoor hangout called The Gazebo, and I
was a smoker. I assumed Mr. Wood just wanted to bum a cigarette.
When I reached his office, he looked pale. He wouldn’t meet my eyes. “I don’t know
how to do this,” he said, in a very deliberate tone, almost pleading with me to make it
easier. My mother had been in a car accident in the foggy reaches of the Sylvan hill. She
was in St. Vincent’s Hospital and not expected to live, although he didn’t tell me that part.
Headmaster Rev. David Leech drove to the hospital. I don’t remember any conversa­
tion. I disappeared into the maelstrom of waiting and hushed conferences and relatives
arriving and phones ringing. Mom was in surgery for five hours. It was night when I was
standing in the hall outside the intensive care unit, watching through the window as the
light on her respirator flickered yellow, which meant she wasn’t breathing on her own. A
hand on my shoulder jolted me out of my thoughts. It was Mr. Leech, offering me a free
place to live at School until mom was out of the hospital. All I needed was a few hundred
dollars for my food.
Thus began the subtle but unmistakable adoption of a waif by OES. I had a home, in
my school, were I could pretend to be an ordinary 16-year-old. I could goof around with
my friends, without needing a ride. I could eat without needing anyone to cook for me. I
could continue to finish high school, even though I was eaten away by grief. I could pre­
tend to live, and by pretending, learn that life does go on.
My mother spent three months in the ICU in a coma. When she regained conscious­
ness, she thought I was her sister. Her brain damage was permanent, although it
improved to the point that she did know who I was. She lived in a nursing home, and
finally went to live with my grandmother for a while. My four brothers, none of them
older than 25, were themselves overwhelmed by the financial and medical questions.
Never mind the emotional ride they were on. They weren’t worrying about me.

I filled out all the forms for college by myself. I searched through shoe boxes of
bills and letters to find out what my mother’s salary had been, so I could fill in the
applications for financial aid. Where it asked for her signature, I wrote mine, and foot­
noted that she was unavailable. When I got my letter from Pomona College, at least I
knew where I’d be living in September.
When I left School to live with my recovering mother at my Grandma’s house, the
drama coach, Marci Nolan, asked me to take the lead role in the school play. It would
mean somehow commuting home from School for play practice every night for weeks.
A fellow student and co-star of the play, Max Miller, said his mother would give me
that crucial ride.
As a mother of three myself, I am belatedly shocked at this generosity and at all
the small details of my care that went unnoticed by me at the time. From what reser­
voir of love did they draw to find extra time for me?
Where had the School found the collective courage to let me remain, without any
“legal guardian” to accept liability for me? Who authorized giving me free rent? I mar­
vel at the speed with which they stepped outside the lines of bureaucracy, insurance,
procedure and offered a hand to someone drowning.
My ties to the School did not end when I graduated. I was living with my brother
and his wife, and my mom, in Portland over the summer. Fred Wood and several other
teachers organized an after graduation backpacking trip in Northeast Oregon. I was
invited and will never forget how much fun it was.
Another School parent, Sue Bogue, offered me a ride to college in Claremont,
California. Her daughter, Nancy, was going to Pitzer, which is on the same campus as
Pomona. She loaded my footlocker in her station wagon and drove me the 1500 miles or
so to my new life. She visited my dormitory room and admired it. She made sure I had
brought a blanket and alarm clock and she gave me a crazy mobile to decorate my
room. Her touch helped make me feel less like a refugee and more like the other stu­
dents whose families where in their rooms.
All this care and attention from the School and from parents might have made
more sense if my mom and I had been part of the close-knit West Hills or Dunthorpe
community of day students that made up a large part of the OES student body in those
days. But we were outsiders in every sense of the word. Mom didn’t have time for vol­
unteering at Country Fair. She had no antiques to donate to the auction, and she didn’t
go to teas with the headmaster.
For some reason, the School community was able to throw its collective arms
around me. Looking back as a parent, I value what happened more than ever. As I
weigh the merits of schools for my children, I often think about OES. Compassion is not
what parents talk about when they compare schools. They talk about academic excel­
lence, small classes, about good libraries and sports programs. It is hard to talk about
the intangibles of community spirit, of compassion, of taking time to care. But, I hope in
speaking of them now, I can inspire those shaping OES today. I hope on the 20th
anniversary of my graduation, that today’s OES is worthy of these belated thanks.

Without a doubt, I am most proud
of the increased involvement I have
witnessed from our alumni con­
stituency through athletics, the
class agent program and alumni
special events. Moreover, interest
in the School continues to gain
momentum. The Alumni Board has
traditionally met on a quarterly
basis, but in the last 4 years, we
have been able to establish consis­
tent monthly meetings, which I
attribute to a renewed sense of
commitment and dedication to the
School. I am proud to say that we
have almost doubled the number
of Alumni Board members attend­
ing meetings, and we have diversi­
fied the Board to include a broader
range of ages, from 25-75!

It’s not hard to feel nostalgic as I
reflect upon my four years on the
OES Alumni Board and especially
my presidency these past two
years.

and mission of the School, to fur­
ther involve alumni with programs
for all—old, young, SHH, BDH and
OES—to educate and involve the
community in the School.”

The success of the Founders’ Day
Luncheons of 1991 and 1992
stand out in my mind. In 1991, we
gathered in record numbers at the
Multnomah Athletic Club to hear
photojournalist John Nance give
an intriguing speech about the
changing world around us. A year
later, in the same location, we cele­
brated our 123 years among a
diverse group of headmasters,
trustees, parents and alumni. Our
featured speaker, newly appointed
Superintendent of Portland Public
Schools John ‘‘Jack’’ Bierwirth,
spoke on the partnership between
public and private education.

Fond memories and reminiscences
were exchanged at a memorable
Reunion Weekend in June, 1992.
Headmaster Peter Stevens
addressed alumni and friends with
a State of the School address
which was followed by featured
speaker John LeCavalier, Upper
School Science teacher and envi­
ronmentalist. He spoke to us about
the importance of preserving our
ecosystem, specifically the wildlife
within our wetlands.

In 1991, the Alumni Association
established the Bishop Benjamin
Wistar Morris Distinguished Alumni
Award which is presented each
year at Founders’ Day to an out­
standing alum. In 1991, our first
recipient, Muriel Gabriel Heltzel
‘30, entertained those present with
stories of The Hall. The 1992 recip­
ient was Ruth Jenkins ‘20, who
charmed students on campus with
a visit the very next day.

In October of 1992, members of
the Alumni Board assembled at the
Franciscan Renewal Center for our
first ever Alumni Board Retreat. As
part of our initial assignment, we
defined the alumni mission state­
ment; “To promote the interests

Meet Sean Kuni ’81
Sean Kuni ‘81 will take over as
Alumni Board President for 199394 in June. After graduating
from OES in 1981, Sean earned
his B.S. in Business from
Willamette University and then
continued on at Willamette
where he receive his M.S. in
Management. In 1987, he mar­
ried Paige Parker ‘84, and this
fall, their daughter Kristine will
join the OES family in Pre­
Kindergarten. Currently, Sean is
the BMW Sales Manager at Kuni
Cadillac and BMW.

BellTower: As president of the
Alumni Association, what goals
have you set for the coming year?
Sean: It’s hard to set specific goals
when you’ve only been in office
one year, but I’d like to develop a
plan in the fall for the entire year,
outlining and creating activities
sponsored by the Alumni
Association that appeal to all alum­
ni. One goal I feel is shared by the
entire Board is continuing to
increase the number of alums
involved in the School and Alumni
activities. I have seen much more
alumni involvement in my three
years on the Board, and I hope it
will continue to grow.

BellTower: As a prospective OES
parent, how did you come to the
decision to send your daughter to
OES?
Sean: Paige and I wanted an open,
creative environment where Kris
could develop both socially and
intellectually. We looked at both
alternatives—public and private—
and felt that OES met our criteria
and expectations. I was attracted
to the concept that there was no
“one right way” to do things. The
teacher worked with a central
theme, like trees, and then allowed
the kids to cut trees, draw trees,
read about trees—anything, as

The faculty of any school is
important, but at OES, the fac­
ulty are not expected to do
everything—they’re just one
part of the whole picture. The
School expects parents to be
involved with their kids at home
and at School. There is a recog­
nition that learning doesn’t just
happen. Parents are expected
to be a part of the process. And
that just seems right.

CAPTAIN ELIZABETH REEVES, MCS, USN (RET.)
by Bob Chumbook
Assistant Headmaster for Development
he year was 1943, and the
country was involved in
the global conflict of World
War II. Patriotism was the
order of the day, and like countless
thousands, Elizabeth Reeves, SHH
‘32 and SHH Junior College ‘35,
stepped forward to serve her
country. That year marked the
beginning of a distinguished career
and a lifelong adventure for Beth
Reeves with the US Navy. After 27
years of service, she retired in
1970 as a full Commander and
now holds the rank of Captain.
Commander Reeves, a pressure
physiologist in the Navy, made
major contributions to the space
program and to underwater depth
research. The year of her retire­
ment she was awarded, by a select
committee of representatives from
23 nations, the Paul Bert Award in
Operational Aerospace Physiology.
The award is given in honor of Paul
Bert, the physician-balloonist
known as “the father of pressure
physiology” who started aviation
studies in 1878.
During the early years of her
career, Reeves lectured on high
altitude flying in English, French,
and Spanish to pilots and crew
members from many countries
(parlaying skills acquired at St.
Helens Hall). Among her favorite
students was Alan Shepard with
whom she later worked on the
space program.

body, she completed her master’s
degree in physiology at the Univer­
sity of Pennsylvania. The last five
years of her career, Reeves served
in the Environmental Stress Divi­
sion of the Navy Medical Research
Institute in Bethesda, Maryland.

Among the many milestones in this
remarkable woman’s career, one
time in particular holds special sig­
nificance for her. When NASA
selected the team to make the first
space flight, Reeves was there to
work with John Glenn, Alan
Shepard and the other five original
astronauts. She was responsible
for putting the astronauts through
the many tests to determine the
effects of weightlessness and
microgravity forces in space.
Reeves credits her successes to
the benefits of a superior early
education. She took full advantage
of the liberal arts education she
had received at St. Helens Hall,
acquiring tools for the future,
fueled by her already keen appetite
to learn. After a sterling career in
the Navy, she entered an excep­
tionally rich retirement phase in her
life, a time she uses to expand her
interests even more. She attended

Foothill Junior College for two
years and received an AA degree
in ornamental horticulture. In addi­
tion, she passed her real estate
broker’s license and took the U.S.
Power Squadron Boating course.
Beth Reeves continues to live
life to its fullest, and gives all
those around her inspiration to
do the same.

Behold us, gracious Savior,
In girlhood’s morning
bright—
Look on us in thy mercy,
And guide us with thy light.
Life’s journey lies before us,
Go with us all the way,
So shall we love Thee truly
And serve Thee day by day.

St Helen’s Hall Commencement
Hymn

In 1948, she went into the Navy’s
medical service corps and com­
bined her flying knowledge with
her girlhood dream to pursue a
medical career. In 1955, while she
was a project officer in physiology
studying the effects of accelera­
tion, altitude, and cold on the

EVENTS

Keeping in touch with our alumni
outside of Oregon took on new
meaning this year when the School
sponsored three regional events in
the first months of 1993. The
events, which took place in San

offered wonderful opportunities for
alumni to “connect” with other
graduates who live in or near their
city and to hear the current news
about OES. Look for information
on upcoming regional events in
future issues of the Belltower.
San Francisco

ment of Secondary Education)
Conference, hosted the event.
Peter spoke of the new long-range
plan for the School—OES/21—and
discussed the future of education
in Oregon.
