Dear Parents,<br />

T<br />

here<br />

are some exciting activities going on<br />

throughout the school that will be coming<br />

to fruition as we move through the<br />

remainder of the school year. Most obvious is the<br />

structure that is rising above the current theater.<br />

The new Creative Arts Center is moving forward<br />

quickly and will be completed by the start of the<br />

next school year. This facility is the culmination<br />

of a significant planning process that involved all<br />

members of the school community from the<br />

board, administration, art faculty, to parents and<br />

students who were involved in the master<br />

planning process that took place four years ago.<br />

This facility will provide a well thought-out<br />

teaching area for the arts, a space that will house<br />

all students and faculty for assemblies and special<br />

activities, and a venue for special events for both<br />

the school and the upcountry community. There<br />

is still much to accomplish, but when it is<br />

completed, we will be blessed with an amazing<br />

facility.<br />

There are also some significant changes being<br />

made to the current May Day program. Although<br />

it has been a traditional event, it has always been<br />

difficult finding time to prepare for the<br />

performance and create a day-long program that<br />

reflects the mission of the school. With the<br />

addition of Kumu Napua Makua as our instructor<br />

of Hawaiian Studies and Language, we have<br />

created a committee to review and redesign the<br />

curriculum so it truly reflects its purpose: to<br />

provide an education experience that allows<br />

young people to better understand and appreciate<br />

the gifts that we receive from the our Hawaiian<br />

culture. Kumu Napua has solicited the assistance<br />

of several kumu throughout the Maui community<br />

to join her in working with the individual classes.<br />

The focus of the event will be on a quality<br />

experience for the students that provides a<br />

meaningful presentation for our guests and for the<br />

entire <strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong> community. The “May Day<br />

Court” will no longer be part of the event,<br />

because it truly does not reflect the Hawaiian<br />

culture but will include hula, chant, and song.<br />

The event will take place on Friday, April 28,<br />

from 9:30 until 11:00 am. Students will then<br />

feast on an authentic Hawaiian meal (we would<br />

love to invite families, but we are not able serve<br />

that many people). During the afternoon, students<br />

will be treated to a concert by a well-known<br />

Hawaiian musical group. School will end at the<br />

normal time.<br />

We are pleased with the increased number of<br />

academic extra-curricular activities that are taking<br />

place on campus. These activities are bringing<br />

notoriety to the school by providing opportunities<br />

for students to demonstrate their expertise in a<br />

variety of academic areas. The Upper School<br />

Math Team and Middle School Mathcounts<br />

program, led by Middle School instructor Steve<br />

Verno have been busy preparing for competitions.<br />

The Middle School MathCounts team recently<br />

(Continued on page 2)


(Continued from page 1)<br />

won the Maui County tournament. The Upper School Science<br />

department had several students to qualify to participate in the<br />

International Science Fair on the mainland in the summer.<br />

Students were also involved in the Ching Foundation’s “Inspired<br />

in Hawaii” contest and won the statewide grand prize for a video<br />

they produced. Students in both the Middle and Upper Schools<br />

are also involved in a new program with PBS and will be<br />

creating news and special interest stories that will be aired. We<br />

are also looking at expanding our Robotics program into the<br />

Upper School and are busy designing it in such a way that it is<br />

offered through an elective class next year.<br />

These types of activities are in line with 21 st century learning<br />

skills because they provide a project-based venue and place<br />

student in an experiential setting that requires them to participate<br />

in a dynamic environment. We will continue developing these<br />

types of programs in all disciplines within the school.<br />

Paddling, Girls Paddling, Girls Soccer, and Boys Soccer. The<br />

Boys’ Swim Team finished second in the MIL and was the top<br />

Maui team at the State Championships finishing fourth. Renny<br />

Richmond was a two event state champion. Also, sophomore<br />

sensation runner, Dakota Grossman was named runner of the<br />

year for the second straight year.<br />

So, as we move through the remainder of the school year, we are<br />

looking forward to celebrating the students’ successes in all<br />

endeavors in which they participate. We are all very proud of<br />

this fine school and its accomplishments. We pledge to never<br />

become complacent and to ensure that we provide the finest<br />

education possible for our students’ preparation for college and<br />

for life.<br />

Joseph J. Schmidt<br />

Headmaster<br />

Finally, we would like to congratulate the Athletic Department<br />

for an outstanding winter season. <strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong> won the MIL<br />

championship in Boys Basketball, Girls Basketball, Mixed<br />

<strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong> Math<br />

Students Are the Best<br />

in Maui<br />

The <strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong> Middle School math<br />

team won the <strong>2012</strong> Maui County<br />

MathCounts competition in early<br />

February. Over 70 students from nine<br />

Maui County middle schools competed for<br />

the championship. The four students who<br />

represented <strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong> for the team<br />

score were eighth grader Bjorn Nelson,<br />

seventh grader Jesse Doan, sixth graders<br />

Shelby Ferrier and Melia Fong. Sixth<br />

graders Nick Endo, Townsend Roland<br />

and Darby Mulligan also performed at<br />

the event. Jesse Doan took first place<br />

individual honors as well as first place in<br />

the Countdown Round, a game show style<br />

head to head single elimination<br />

competition. This is the third straight year<br />

that <strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong> has won this prestigious<br />

event.<br />

This year’s math team also benefited<br />

greatly from the wisdom and experience of<br />

assistant coach Jasmine Doan, a ninth<br />

grade <strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong> student and Middle<br />

School alumni who has established herself<br />

as one of the top math students in the<br />

entire state. As Maui County champions<br />

the team has earned the right to represent<br />

Maui at the Hawaii State MathCounts<br />

Championship on Oahu.<br />

Grade<br />

Reports<br />

and<br />

Signups<br />

In the Upper School, as we approach<br />

Spring Break, two very important<br />

timetables are close to concluding. The<br />

first, of course, is the third quarter, which<br />

ends on <strong>March</strong> 8, the final day of school<br />

before the break. Coinciding with the end<br />

of the third quarter is the conclusion of the<br />

sign-up process for next year's courses.<br />

In the three weeks between Winterim and<br />

Spring Break students work closely with<br />

their advisors and grade-level deans to<br />

complete their four-year plans and course<br />

sign-up sheets for next year. Prior to the<br />

break, your child should bring<br />

home a completed course signup<br />

sheet. Please take a<br />

moment to compare your<br />

child's current performance<br />

with the offerings and<br />

descriptions for courses<br />

available in the fall. It is<br />

important that we all work<br />

together to create a schedule<br />

that is appropriate for your<br />

child's abilities and future<br />

aspirations. Once you have reviewed your<br />

child's course selections for the next<br />

academic year, please sign the form and<br />

have your student return it to his/her<br />

advisor prior to Spring Break.<br />

Planning for the future should be exciting.<br />

It is a wonderful venue to discuss future<br />

goals, likes and dislikes, and may be a<br />

wonderful catalyst for those of you<br />

embarking on college searches. In<br />

addition, the process will hopefully remind<br />

students of the importance of working<br />

until the end of the year.<br />

The beginning of the<br />

fourth quarter is a<br />

wonderful opportunity<br />

to process teacher's<br />

comments and apply<br />

suggestions so that one<br />

may end the semester<br />

on a high note. With a<br />

strong fourth quarter<br />

students can<br />

significantly improve their semester<br />

averages. Students should seek out their<br />

instructor's counsel on methods for<br />

improving as well as advice for the best<br />

methods of preparation for final exams or<br />

year-end assessments.<br />

Prom<br />

Although the <strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong> Prom is still<br />

over a month away on April 14, tickets<br />

will be going on sale during the week<br />

before Spring Break. The Prom is open to<br />

all 10 th , 11 th , and 12 th graders, who are<br />

welcome to invite guests. Prior to the<br />

break, tickets will be $65, but the price<br />

will go up ten dollars after the vacation.<br />

Specific details will be provided closer to<br />

the event.<br />

Also please take a moment or two over the<br />

Spring Break to appreciate being a<br />

family. Often times our schedules lead us<br />

in different directions and it is important<br />

Tour de Trash<br />

by Laura Mayron<br />

In January the members of the AP Biology, AP<br />

Environmental Science, Engineering, and<br />

Environmental Biology classes got a look at<br />

what happens to Maui’s trash during Maui<br />

County’s “Tour de Trash..” Presented by the<br />

Department of Environmental Management’s<br />

Solid Waste Division, the Tour de Trash seeks<br />

to show Maui’s students just what happens to<br />

their waste—be it garbage, recyclables,<br />

compost, and metals—and what they can do<br />

to help keep Maui clean.<br />

The first stop was the Central Maui landfill and<br />

Maui Eco Systems compost section. One of<br />

the highlights was a presentation by Pacific<br />

Biodiesel, the first commercial biodiesel<br />

business in the United States. Vice President<br />

Kelly King spoke to students on the production<br />

of various types of biodiesel and told them<br />

how they could become involved.<br />

Students were then taken to Hammerhead<br />

Metals, a scrap metal facility that processes<br />

metals from both the public and commercial<br />

businesses. Students watched a derelict car<br />

being crushed into a compact cube of twisted<br />

metal and glass.<br />

The tour continued on to Maui Disposal<br />

Company to see bales of compacted paper,<br />

glass, and aluminum, and hear how it is<br />

shipped abroad and to the mainland. The tour<br />

finished up at Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore,<br />

that sells donated residential construction and<br />

remodeling materials and also recycles<br />

electronics.<br />

Athletes of<br />

the Month<br />

If your child is a<br />

member of a spring<br />

team (Baseball, Boys<br />

We were very excited to recognize two<br />

young ladies who have been in the<br />

basketball program for four years. This<br />

year they overcame all obstacles to win the<br />

MIL championship. Megan O’Malley<br />

and Anna Rodgers have attended many<br />

summer and off season camps to hone<br />

their skills for their last year of high school<br />

basketball. Their efforts paid dividends as<br />

the team finished first in the MIL.<br />

Volleyball, Golf, Softball,<br />

Tennis or Track and Field)<br />

please check with your<br />

coach and find out when<br />

practices, matches or games<br />

are, so your child will be<br />

second, and the basketball and soccer<br />

teams won both of their league<br />

championships.<br />

In all, the winter sports competed in nine<br />

different leagues and came away with 6<br />

team championships. We’re very<br />

fortunate to have such<br />

wonderful youngsters<br />

representing <strong>Seabury</strong> <strong>Hall</strong>.<br />

A major reason for our success<br />

was the support of the families<br />

of all our athletes. Thank you<br />

to all of you who supported<br />

your child, or favorite team<br />

this past winter.<br />

We recognized three boys who contributed<br />

mightily to the swim team this year. All<br />

three scored points in the MIL where the<br />

team finished second in the MIL. Alex<br />

Armstrong has swum for four years.<br />

Tristan Loesberg has been on the team<br />

for three years while Cole Drake was able<br />

to compete for the first time this year.<br />

They have been tremendous models for the<br />

younger swimmers this season.<br />

Spring Break<br />

Spring Break is always a difficult time for<br />

our spring sports teams. Families go on<br />

vacation or it is difficult for the younger<br />

athletes to find transportation to practice.<br />

able to meet all of his/her commitments.<br />

Great Winter<br />

While many parts of the country were<br />

under snow, or in a very cold space this<br />

winter, our athletic teams were extremely<br />

hot. The paddling teams began the assault<br />

as both the girls and the mixed teams took<br />

the MIL title. Not to be outdone, the<br />

soccer teams both won their respective<br />

league championships. The swim teams<br />

both had outstanding efforts to finish

College Counseling News by Nancy Ulin<br />

Juniors<br />

Don’t forget to sign up for the SAT<br />

Subject Tests if you are taking them<br />

(formerly known as the SAT II’s)! The<br />

May 5 test is ideal for taking any SAT<br />

Subject Test as you will be taking AP<br />

exams around the same time. Register for<br />

the May 7 test by April 6th. Go to<br />

www.collegeboard.com and log into your<br />

account.<br />

Don’t forget to sign up for the ACT April<br />

14 exam (with writing) by <strong>March</strong> 9! Go<br />

to www.act.org. We are not doing this in<br />

class – you are expected to sign up on your<br />

own.<br />

I have scheduled family conferences with<br />

the juniors and their parents. Please<br />

remember, I need to have the Brag Letter<br />

back by <strong>March</strong> 9.<br />
