from the towerDuring the past several months I have hadthe pleasure of meeting with countless alumni,parents, students, and prospective students.These interactions are often somewhat casualbut common to all is some discussion aboutTilton, the world in which we live, and how thetwo connect. During the past year I havedetected a change in these conversations. TodayI hear great anxiety if not fear about the future and an undercurrentof nostalgia or desire to return to the more comfortable, stable, andpredictable days of the past. Given the uncertainties of the world inwhich we live, I can understand these emotions. However, I believe itis important for Tilton School and all of us involved with it to remainfocused on the future and the capacity we share to make the futurewhat we want.The Tilton School Mission statement begins with the followingsentence: Tilton school challenges students to embrace and navigate aworld marked by diversity and change. Our stated goal is thus not to befearful about the future and the change which will occur as a part of it,but to embrace that change. We want our students to see the future asfull of opportunity and promise. The School’s job is to cultivate in ourstudents the skills, knowledge and understandings, the character andthe integrity necessary to pursue a life of personal success and service.I do believe that we each have the capacity to do something todaythat will make tomorrow better than yesterday. I am realistic and, attimes, cautious but I believe strongly in the capacity of our individualand collective heart, head, and soul to make a better world.I recently read a quote from Alfred North Whitehead, an educatorfrom England, who wrote: The art of progress is to preserve order amidchange and to preserve change amid order. This balance between orderand change plays out in the individual lives of students and in thebroader institutional life of Tilton. We do seek to preserve the besttraditions and customs of Tilton’s long history. But we also seek toutilize this special history in the real world of today and tomorrow.The words of Headmaster Daniel Knowles (1884-1891) bring hometo me this constant effort to use the past to shape the future:“Now take this simple lesson home with you. Don’t forget it. When you wantto do anything that is just right, when the heart yearns for it, that is thefood seed; but the soul has to say, What must I do now to get the harvest?What must I do? I must do something I must! I must get right at it.”The core message contained in Headmaster Knowles’ comment isthat we are individually responsible for making things happen, that itis only through hard work that desired outcomes will be achieved,and that seeking to get it right ought to be goal. This message is asimportant today as it was back in the late 1800s.So, my messages are simple: the future is ours to influence; as aschool we continue to work every day to instill in our students thevalues and characteristics that are a part of Tilton’s history and whichwill provide the foundation for success in the future; and lastly thatthe School is a better place as each of us remains committed throughword and action to its future.Join me in the challenge and opportunity to make the future ofTilton bright.Sincerely,James R. ClementsHead of SchoolIt is with humility that I embark on my secondtour as your Board of Trustees Chair. I promise todo all in my power to preserve and grow ourbeloved Tilton School. Reflecting on this pastyear’s enormous challenges and accomplishmentsgives me yet another opportunity to share my joy,pride and gratitude in being a member of thisgreat community.As we look forward we must keep our sights high and well beyondthe immediate details of our day to day challenges. We are strong andhave much to celebrate. Our enrollment hit a high in the year justpassed. Our Annual Fund participation rate saw a significant rise despiteunprecedented challenging economic times. Tilton’s continued prosperityand growth will depend on you and me to do all we can to ensure thatour school continues to move forward to strengthen the foundation ofour educational mission. Therefore, I invite your engagement in all thatTilton does to afford us all the opportunity to become involved in ourcontinued success.Following a successful career with Nike, Dick Newton ’59, helpedto lead the 50th Reunion of his class to a major milestone in achievingsignificant participation not only in attendance at the Reunion in Junebut in beating the 50th Class Reunion of New Hampton School inits annual fund goals! He is experiencing a great deal of joy in hisvolunteer work for the School. He recently called to tell me he hasnot had this much “fun” since he was one of the folks who startedNike Footwear years ago. Dick’s complaint is that he did not getreally involved with Tilton twenty years ago.Terry Judd ’70, a fellow Trustee, tells of Tilton being there in his youthand again having a meaningful role in his life as he faces retirement. Terryis, as Dick Newton, a volunteer who gives his time and significantexpertise to Tilton School. I share these stories for they are thefoundation of what makes a school, OUR School, so special – it ispeople who have valued and benefitted from Tilton giving back intheir unique and valuable ways.Join us at regional gatherings, come to campus and view the new,award-winning architecture, and meet with today’s students andfaculty. You will be invigorated and enthused and able to addyour talents and enthusiasm to the Tilton story of the “Power ofPotential” which we have each realized in our own way from ourTilton Experience.Sincerely,Stephen M.

Photo by Bill TruslowWEB 2.0: TILTON’STECHNOLOGY TITANSTilton School has a long history of providing a challenging educational program for itsstudents. As part of the School’s strategic technology and learning initiative, People FirstTechnology, Tilton encourages its faculty to view technology as an essential element of the21st Century teacher’s toolbox and to discover the particular instructional technologies thathave the potential to improve the educational process and engage students as activeparticipants in the construction of their learning. >>Fall 2009 | 3

Technology has increasingly become an important partof teaching but can create a challenge for faculty who mustchoose between the numerous online teaching tools andsoftware that is currently available. Technology helps bridgethe gap between the way students live today and the waythey learn.third is the most recent – the use of Web 2.0 tools inclassroom instruction and the student learning experience.This is the area in which Tilton School is using a range oftechnology tools to assess what best meets the School’seducational goals and students’ needs.According to Margaret Allen, Academic Dean, “This“WE ARE USING 21 ST CENTURY TOOLS TO TRANSFORM HOW STUDENTSUNDERSTAND THEIR WORLD. We cannot use these tools simply because they areavailable, or status quo, but we must choose them based upon how they fit with Tilton[School’s educational philosophy.” - Gaile Loomis, Director of TechnologyTilton School has launched technology integration intoits curriculum in an interesting way. Many aspects oftechnology integration are fully standard and expected asthe norm. There are several levels of activity. One has beenongoing and includes use of software tools that are essentialto 21st Century work and learning productivity, i.e. wordprocessing, graphics, database analysis, and presentationprograms. The second is the significant increase in the use ofclassroom technology tools such as interactive whiteboardsand projection technology, which was the strategiceducational element of the academic building plan. Thecollaborative drive to use new innovative teaching tools ispaying great dividends. We emphasize that our goal is notto use technology as simply a piece of software but as atool that redefines the learning experience and creates arich learning environment. If there is not a curricularpurpose for using technology to enhance the learningexperience, we don’t use it.”“Tilton School is discovering what is possible for ourstudents, our faculty, and their Tilton Experience,” saysGaile Loomis, Director of Technology. “We are using 21stCentury tools to transform how students understand theirworld. We cannot use these tools simply because they areavailable, or status quo, but we must choose them basedupon how they fit with Tilton School’s educationalphilosophy. Every day we see educational opportunitiesinherent in the emerging technologies. These tools are notabout hardware or software but about their usefulness.”As a campus partner, Tilton’s Technology Departmentprovides coordinated assistance and access to best practices,technologies and resources that support current, effective andinnovative teaching at Tilton. The department collaborateswith teachers to pilot and test new technologies. Loomis ispassionate about these instructional tools.“Technology is about teaching excellence today,”Loomis said. “It has moved to the forefront of teachingand can really impact the classroom experience. If4 | Fall 2009

designed right it’s not platform specific; you can use aMac, PC or Linux operating system. The Tilton SchoolWeb 2.0 experience embraces diversity, in or out ofthe classroom.”Technology integration provides multiple pathways forstudents to gain access to, and develop mastery of skills in,Communication, Critical Thinking, Community,Creativity and Character (Tilton School’s CurricularDimensions for the 21st Century: the Five C’s).According to eSchool News: “Our country’s globaleconomic success in the future depends on K-20graduates honing their ‘21st Century Skills.’ Today’stech-savvy generation has no shortage of user-friendlydevices...and they know how to use them. But are theyputting these tech skills to good use? You’ve heard of the3Rs, but what about the Five C’s such as criticalthinking, creative problem solving, communications,collaboration and cross-cultural relationship building?Beginning in 2012, ‘tech literacy’ will be added to ourNation’s Report Card. This means student proficiencyin the application of technology will be measured forthe first time. It isn’t just layering technology overtraditional core competencies, though. It’s about totallyintegrating the two for success in an increasinglycompetitive world.”Tilton School is on the leading edge of the curve.Tilton faculty and their students are using Web 2.0 toolstoday. Meet some of Tilton’s teachers who are enhancingclassroom teaching and learning using different web basedmedia, formats and activities. One theme emerges: if it hasno purpose tied to the curriculum it makes no sense to usea Web 2.0 tool.Google Apps: Economics and a DynamicLearning ExperienceTeacher Brian Cook initially used Google Apps for hisown work in the Social Sciences but quickly realized thecollaborative aspects of Google tools dovetailed nicely withTilton School’s Standards Based Assessment and Reporting(SBAR) model. SBAR is a model for assessing and gradingstudent learning by comparing evidence of learning derivedfrom student performance against clearly defined standardsor learning outcomes.“TECHNOLOGY IS ABOUT TEACHINGEXCELLENCE TODAY. It has moved to theforefront of teaching and can really impact theclassroom experience.” - Gaile Loomis, Director of TechnologyIn fall 2007, he integrated Google Apps into thecurriculum for his Economics class and the course finalexam. By spring 2008, use of Google Apps was required ofall of Cook’s students. Cook has his students post both classwork and homework in what he refers to as a “formalizedvirtual classroom space,” which permits student and facultyinteraction anytime from anywhere. These tools also havefeatures which allow him to see input user by user so it iseasy to tell who is and is not fully participating.According to Cook, “If teaching is really about coaching,tools like Google Apps allow real-time and faster feedbackto the student. Standards-based learning requires a lot offeedback in formative work. The idea is that a lot ofungraded assessment goes on in a formal way. The teacherlooks for evidence of learning versus just grades on a test.Standards-based assessment requires a lot of teacher andstudent feedback and makes the learning process more fluid.”Integrating technology into his curriculum permits thedynamic exchange of informal feedback and also makes it[Integrating technology into Tilton’s curriculum provides opportunitiesfor teaching and learning that would not otherwise be possible. Someof the ways to achieve this innovative method of teaching are: Internetresearch, ePortfolios, wikis, Google Apps and blogging.Fall 2009 | 5

Tech @ TiltonWhat is Web 2.0?The Web has moved from a static information resource that providesinformation to an interactive and collaborative environment. Web 2.0offers opportunities for teachers and students to connect andcollaborate within a “virtual classroom” space. The Web hasbecome a platform for participation.Web 2.0 ToolsWeb 2.0 tools make it easier to navigate, manage and customizecourse information and content based on the unique needs of theclass and students.BlogShorthand for “Web log.” A blog is an online chronological collectionof personal commentary and links. Blogs are easy to create and usefrom anywhere that has an Internet connection. Considered a formof Internet publishing, blogs are viewed as a standard communicationtool which encourages people to share knowledge. A blog isoften thought of as an online journal.WikiA wiki is a Web page that can be viewed and modified by anyonewith a Web browser and Internet access.Google AppsGoogle Apps is a group of Web-based programs that run in a Webbrowser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Foxfire, etc.). Users do not haveto buy or install the software but can log into the service to accesstheir files. Google Apps offers tools such as G-mail, Google Talk andGoogle Calendar; Google Docs is used to create, store and sharedocuments, spreadsheets, presentations and online forms; andGoogle Sites is used to develop Web pages.[Source: ESchool News](continued from page 5)easier for more formative feedback to occur. It creates apersonalized, engaging learning experience. For example,students get to see their work on a continuum. Manyclearly see how learning units build on one another andalso see how their work improves.Using Google Apps, students generate their work andpost it to the digital space, making it easy for Cook andthe students to review and collaborate frequently.Using a Web 2.0 tool such as Google Apps also makesthe logistics of instruction easier and more streamlined, forexample, there are no technology impediments to turningin work, such as a broken printer or incompatibility withthe wrong version of Word.Web 2.0 tools also support student-to-studentcollaboration. Right now Cook is focused primarily onstudent-to-teacher collaboration, but his Economics classdoes use a Community Notebook through which eachstudent is assigned to post notes from class discussions forall students to view.Fathom: Virtual Patterns forUnderstanding Mathematical ConceptsJeff Nielson teaches Pre-Calculus and AP Statistics anduses Fathom software to help bridge the gap betweenconcrete and abstract mathematical and statistical conceptsby letting students see and manipulate data. He considersthe software to be a vehicle to teach problem-solving.“The software allows the kids to test conjectures veryquickly, to get immediate feedback and visually see theresults and then move forward to test new conjectures,”Nielson said. “Kids still need to learn how to think, and iftechnology can teach this – fine. The key is finding whyyou want to use the technology tool.”Technology tools help students learn how to deal withnew situations and how to apply those tools to thatsituation. In Nielson’s class, students using the softwareare quickly able to see patterns and then articulate andrelate back to the formula. The visual manipulation ofdata gives students an opportunity to generate and then6 | Fall 2009

One example, according to Nielson,is recording the distance and time of a falling object andthen using that data to describe a quadratic model. Thisputs the abstract model in perspective.Wiki: Collaborative Consolidation ofReference MaterialsFollowing Cook’s example, Josh Kirn has beenexperimenting with a Web page on Google Sites as thehome page for his World Religion and Philosophy class.This has proven to be a very useful resource for bothKirn and his students. It allows Kirn to store all classdocuments, assignment sheets, and other informationwhere they can be easily accessed by anyone who needsthem. It also allows him to update the class materialvery quickly.The site navigation is fairly straightforward: Kirn hastwo primary pages – one for his material and one that canbe modified by the class. This allows students to postassignments where he can find them without overloadinghis e-mail and allows students to share resources. Oneexample of this has been an ongoing bibliography project. Inorder for the class to learn proper documentation skills, thestudents create a cooperative bibliography for every religionthe class studies.For the spring 2009 senior Capstone projects, Kirn’sstudents used the site much more independently. They postedall work on their own page, which allowed him constantaccess to their work as they updated it and proceeded throughthe writing process. This significantly reduced the amount ofpaper the class used as they created outlines and drafts beforethey completed their projects in May.This is the first time Kirn has made such active use of aclass Web site, and he is looking forward to doing this againin the future. Next time, he plans to involve the class morein the creation of the site and will ask that all assignmentsbe submitted through the class site whenever possible.Blog: Personal Exploration Beyondthe ClassroomAnthony Monticello is using WordPress software to createa Blog in his English as Second Language classrooms.Students ‘blog’ every week and write on a number ofdifferent topics. Some of these writing exercises are done toreinforce the day to day lessons, while others give thestudents a chance to respond freely to the readings done inclass.

The feedbackThe feedback between teacher and student isshared, discussed, and refined ULTIMATELYSTRENGTHENING THE ACQUISITION OF[ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE.between teacher and student is shared, discussed, andrefined ultimately strengthening the acquisition of Englishas a second language.Network Access and SharedFolders: Focus on Learning versusthe Note TakingTilton School also integrates technology into thecurriculum through activities such as those used by TomDeRigo in his Mathematics classes. DeRigo records andposts notes from his class whiteboard lectures to a sharedfolder on the School’s network for ease of student access.This activity allows students to focus on the class lectureversus focusing on the note taking. What’s more, if astudent misses a class, access to the lecture notes makesfor quick makeup of the work.Tilton makes significant use of the School’s internalnetwork for storage and access to curricular information,from syllabus materials to homework assignments to workin progress and supplementary materials.8 | Fall 2009

A Look Back:The Water PollutionProgram at Tilton SchoolWRITTEN BY TERRY JUDD ’70Mike Sleeper ’70 slides out onto the frozen Pemigewasset River in winter1970 to retrieve a water sample under a bridge near the now-closedFranconia Paper Co. (Photo by Terry Judd ’70)Summer 1969 was a timewhen most Americans weremore concerned with theon-going Vietnam conflictthan with the purity of theair and surface waters; feweven knew the meaning ofthe word “ecology.” >>

But at Tilton School, a remarkable workshop was held thatsummer where dozens of students and teachers from areaschools worked side-by-side collecting and testing watersamples as they designed what would become the TiltonSchool Water Pollution Program.By that fall, Tilton School was the headquarters of aninnovative water pollution program founded at Tilton andmade available to eight area public schools. Forty years ago, itwas like no other program.There were no textbooks, lectures, exams or grades.Instead, students worked almost exclusively outside. Armedwith sterilized bottles and portable lab equipment, juniorsand seniors waded into waters to collect and analyze samples.Students wrote self-evaluations for each academic term ratherthan be tested.The program was hailed as the future of education withstudents and teachers working as partners, freed from theconfines of blackboards and textbooks.But despite all of the accolades and publicity, theprogram lasted only two full academic years – falling victimto administrative changes at Tilton and a resulting loss offederal and private funding.Rod E. Scheffer, Tilton’s Director of Studies at the time,remembers the program’s emphasis on active fieldwork.“The idea of interdisciplinary education is a good one andthat was the idea behind the water pollution program,” hesaid. “Kids were not so much in the classroom as they wereout on the job. They were in the rivers, the lakes, examiningwater. That was a very strong part of the whole program.”Tilton’s foray into environmental education was throughthe efforts of then Head of School Joseph H. Chadbourne,who created at The University School in Cleveland, Ohio asimilar program that attracted financial support from federaland private agencies.In 1968, Chadbourne was working for the NationalCommission for Resources of Youth in Washington, D.C.when he was approached by John Charles Daly ’30, thenPresident of the Tilton School Board of Trustees and therecent host of the “What’s My Line?” CBS television show.Tilton was searching for a new headmaster and Daly wasintrigued by Chadbourne’s unorthodox approach to educationand his ability to attract federal and foundation grants.Chadbourne eventually was hired and immediately pledgedto create a water pollution program for Tilton using about$120,000 in federal and Ford Foundation grants, or close to$700,000 in today’s money.“The initial goal of the water pollution program wastraining other people,” he said. “But underlying that was amore important issue – hands-on learning. I wanted toexpand the ways people could find their own learning style.”Tilton’s own water pollution class was led by Robert E.Graham, the legendary biology teacher remembered eventoday for his imaginative lab experiments and his Addams

Family-like deep voice and gray pallor. For the waterpollution class, Graham miraculously was transformed intoan outdoorsman straight out of an L.L. Bean catalog.The class met six times a week, with double periods onMondays and Thursdays. Students often targeted theWinnipesaukee River, and ventured around the now-closedTilton Tannery and the Town of Tilton’s riverfront, dottedwith rusty pipes and residue. The class also ventured to theFranconia Paper Company on the Pemigewasset River.By spring 1970, the program was declared a success.Chadbourne envisioned expanding the water pollutionprogram nationally and pursued additional funding.The program was nearing the end of its second academicyear when trustees and Chadbourne reached an impasseover how much administrative time should be devoted todeveloping a national water pollution program. During anApril 1, 1971 Trustee Executive Committee meeting,Chadbourne agreed to step down immediately and Tilton’swater pollution program abruptly lost its leading advocateand future public and private funding.Chadbourne returned to Ohio and formed the Institutefor Environmental Education to advance environmentaleducation programs nationally.Ken Didsbury ’67, who began his 31-year teaching careerat Tilton in 1971, remembers seeing much of the waterpollution testing equipment idle that fall. But the program’sbrief legacy was remembered.“I think the water pollution program was anticipatingand acknowledging the type of learning that really neededto be done then and now,” said Didsbury. “Even today, westill are trying to get people to be much more hands-onthrough a program that is student-centered, rather thanfaculty-centered.”Didsbury, now Dean of Academics and Faculty at TheBenjamin School in Jupiter, Fla., said Tilton’s +5 Program,linking the classroom to experiential learning, partially wasinfluenced by the water pollution program.Since then, participatory education is the norm at Tiltonand other schools, according to Dean of Faculty MichaelLandroche. But unlike the water pollution class, he saidtoday’s programs recognize the value of classroom instructionbefore students are sent into the field.“It takes a balance between both styles of learning,” hesaid. “All you are doing is discrete fieldwork if there is noattempt to put a framework around it for the kids.”Environmental education programs at Tilton have had amore mixed history. Physics and computer teacher Rod G.Page and chemistry teacher Biff Sutcliffe offered in the late ’70sand early ’80s classes and seminars with ecology components.Formal environmental education returned to Tilton eightyears ago when Science Department Chairman, Dr. DenisWang, created Introductory Ecology, a course offeringlaboratory, fieldwork and classroom instruction. In addition,the School offers Caribbean Marine Ecology, a yearlongacademic study with a week-long diving experience in Belize.*Wang sees Tilton doing even more in the “green” arena inthe future.“Ecology programs are important because we are now in aworld crisis,” he said. “I want kids to be active. I want kidsfinding solutions.”Chadbourne, who along with his wife, Mary, runs anenvironmental consulting firm in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, isglad to hear statements like that.“That’s exactly what I was trying to accomplish at Tilton40 years ago,” he said.Photos (opposite page, top to bottom): Students participating in thewater pollution class used meters and other equipment to test water inthe field (photo by Terry Judd ’70); The water pollution program requiredcollecting and testing water samples in sanitized beakers (photo by PeterWeiskel ’70); Lane Adam ’70, right, leads a demonstration of the TiltonSchool Water Pollution program at an area high school.

Victoria Sohn ’12 - Girls’ Varsity HockeyPaving the WayMichael Landroche, Dean of Faculty, remembers a time, in the early80s, when Tilton was a boys’ school that accepted girls. It was a periodillustrated by female athletes using the abandoned boys’ locker rooms.But he also recalls a time when girls’ athletics began to receive the creditit deserved. He was quick to point to former Tilton Headmaster MikeBaker. Baker coached the girls’ basketball team from the late 70s throughthe mid 80s and Landroche respected the job he did with the program.Baker was demanding, but fair and Landroche admired that. >12 | Fall 2009

“He took girls who weren’t real basketball players andencouraged them to think of themselves as athletes,” saidLandroche, who took over the team in 1994. “You can havefun and also take yourself seriously as an athlete and that’ssort of the best of both worlds that I wanted to bring back.”About to begin his 28th year on the Tilton School campus,Landroche has watched girls’ athletics explode over the last 20years. Girls now have 14 sports over three seasons in whichthey can compete within the highly-competitive LakesRegion Conference. In fact, last year’s senior class graduatedeight student-athletes to play for Division I (three), DivisionII (one) and Division III (four) colleges and universities.Two of those players – Amber Lanza ’09 and EleniDixon ’09 – were trained under the tutelage of Landroche,but he has since passed the torch to a new girls’ basketballcoach who is ready to take not only the team, but the girls’athletic program to uncharted heights.“The more and more I found out about Tilton, the moreI started to like it,” said Tara Brisson, who will take over asHead Coach of the girls’ basketball team as well as serve asAssistant Athletic Director and an Admissions Associate.“I’m getting the feeling that it must be an unbelievable placeif (faculty) are staying for 25-plus years and want to workeven harder in the 30th year than they did in their first.”Moving OnLandroche will now be able to devote more of his timeto training and developing faculty members, much in thesame way he guided and nourished his basketball programfor the past 15 winters.But Landroche’s decision to step down as girls’ basketballcoach was hardly on a whim. A member of the EnglishDepartment, Landroche was named Dean of Faculty in thefall of 2002. And while he managed his many hatsadmirably, the idea of spreading his wings even wider inthe teaching realm took precedence.“The conversation about my stepping down began fouryears ago,” Landroche said. “At that point, both I and (Headof School) Jim Clements were very interested in freeing upmy schedule so I could spend more time with faculty anddeveloping faculty in the classroom. But our agreement wasalways that we’ll keep looking until we find the right person.”In 2005, Landroche went back to the sidelines inwhat was a down year for the Rams. In 2006, the rightperson still hadn’t stepped up, so he “happily returnedto the team,” leading the Rams to a New EnglandChampionship. The 2007 season was sub-par for theRams, but last season provided a perfect going-out partyfor the bench boss, advancing all the way to Class Csemifinals, a first in team history.“Tara was actually recommended to the school by oneof my former players,” Landroche said of ’98 alumna JulieFoley. “She connected with (Athletic Director) KenHollingsworth and that’s how it got rolling.”“Tara has energy and connections in basketball – at thehigh school and college level – and her network of professionalcolleagues is a boon for admissions, but it’s also a boon forour current athletes,” he continued. “It’s become a muchmore complicated, much more time-consuming job since Istarted, and Tara has the polish to carry it out well. After mymeeting with her, I went right down to Jim Clements’ officeand said, ‘After four years, this is the one.’ ”Head Girls’ Varsity Basketball Coach Mike Landroche with team members: OsasaIgbinedion ’09, Habibat Tinubu ’09, Amber Lanza ’09, Aaleiyah Clifford ’12, CourtneyDobrowolski ’11, Alyssa Schlehuber ’10, Eleni Dixon ’09, Chelsea Whetstone ’10, JanelleMazzaferro ’09, Chelsea Emery ’10, Abby Polkinghorn ’09 and Stephanie Downs ’09.Fall 2009 | 13

Members of Tilton School’s 2008 FieldHockey team: Miyoshie Lamothe-Aime ’09,Victoria Messuri ’10, Chelsea Emery ’10,Mercedes Kuzina ’11, Kerry Mead ’09 andAllison Wiesenbach ’09.Brisson won’t be the only new coaching face on campusthis year, however. Using a tactic that it hopes its owncoaches will utilize, Tilton recruited high-end coachingtalent that will push the girls’ athletic program evenfurther, yet still serve as important role models to allstudents within the Tilton community.“It’s easy to bring in high-profile coaches, that’s not hardto do,” said Assistant Head of School Steve Poirot. “Ourgoal is to bring in highly-skilled coaches who fit into theTilton community as teachers and dorm parents as well –coaches who understand the importance of athletics andthe idea of the student-athlete, because that’s what they arefirst and foremost, they’re students.”New RecruitsBrisson comes to Tilton after spending four years as the firstAssistant Women’s Basketball Coach at Williams College inWilliamstown, MA and most recently at Saint AnselmCollege in Manchester, NH. And while she admits that hertime at the universities was valuable, it was a volunteercoaching gig she held last spring that led her to Tilton.Brisson coached the Junior Varsity Softball team atGoffstown High School in Goffstown, NH and she wasimmediately recharged.“In college, dealing with 18 to 20 year olds was tough;they didn’t always appreciate the advice we gave them,”Brisson said. “That left a sour taste in my mouth, butwhen I got to Goffstown I was revamped. I was totallychanged because now I had 14 and 15 year olds who werelike sponges and wanted to know everything. They wereexcited about the same things I was excited about. Theywanted to learn.”CommunityGabe Bernstein and Sarah Wood are also new to Tilton.Bernstein takes over as Head Coach of the Girls’ Soccerteam, while Wood will help coach the Alpine Ski team thiswinter and assist Landroche with Softball in the spring.Bernstein played two years of professional soccer in theUnited Soccer League before going back to school to gethis Master’s degree in Sports Psychology at SpringfieldCollege, where he would also serve as an assistant coach forthe women’s soccer team. Wood also received her Master’sin Psychology, specific to athletic counseling. Both willwork in Tilton’s Learning Center.“When I interviewed at Tilton, I met with Steve and acouple other people and they all had the same message, andthat was that they were looking to develop students in alldomains: academically, socially, and athletically,” Bernsteinsaid. “The school really matches my approach, not only incoaching, but in the classroom also.”Staying in-house to find coaches has proved to be invaluablefor the girls’ athletic program. Jill Jones Grotnes, about to beginher sixth year at Tilton, takes over as Head Coach of the FieldHockey team. Previously serving as an assistant, Jones Grotnesalso coached Field Hockey and Women’s Lacrosse at WesleyanUniversity and Women’s Lacrosse at Saint Anselm College.“This is a natural progression for Jill and for the team,”Poirot said.“I’m a fundamentals coach and I love to teach thegame,” Jones Grotnes said, “but I also know what a college14 | Fall 2009

“Sofia was the definition of what I like to do...we taught her how to playfield hockey and now she’s playing at Holy Cross. She went from neverholding a field hockey stick to playing in College – that’s a big deal.”coach is looking for, so I know what it’s going to take toprepare these kids for the next level.”Take Sofia Spanos ’08. The Laconia, NH native will be asophomore on the Division I Field Hockey team at HolyCross this fall, something Spanos likely would havelaughed at as an incoming freshman to Tilton in 2004.“Sofia was the definition of what I like to do,” JonesGrotnes said. “We taught her how to play field hockey andnow she’s playing at Holy Cross. She went from never holdinga field hockey stick to playing in (college) – that’s a big deal.”“Jill’s always on campus, she goes to clinics, she’s alwaystrying to meet kids at admissions, she just really wants tocontinue to build that program,” Hollingsworth said. “Ourgirls’ team coaches are getting stronger and more committedand in turn they’re finding and bringing in higher caliberfemale athletes.”It’s important to note, however, that this is hardly aninitiative for Tilton. There are established coaches oncampus that have already set the bar high.Head Girls’ Lacrosse Coach Molly Rogers brings eightyears of experience to the table, leading her club to a 6-4record last season; John Elfring guided the Girls’ Tennisteam to a 7-3 campaign; and Landroche’s Softball teamclinched the Lakes Region Championship to cap off an11-1 spring campaign.But maybe the best example of what Tilton is tryingto accomplish is demonstrated by Girls’ Hockey CoachTim Healy.InspirationHealy was an assistant for the Boys’ Hockey team for threeyears before taking over the Girls’ Hockey team for the2008-09 season. Hockey, unlike other sports, tends toprepare athletes for several different sports, which makes itsrecruiting process that much more valuable. Instead ofrecruiting one athlete for one sport, Healy is able to recruitnot only an athlete for his team but bring in student-athleteswho can benefit other sports as well.“If you look at the overall improvement of girls’ athleticslast year, with the exception of girls’ basketball, it can betraced through female hockey players,” Healy said. “Youlook at girls like Bryanna Bourbeau ’12 and VictoriaBratton ’10 and what they did on the girls’ soccer teamand you can see that we’re bringing in high-end academicgirls who are also phenomenal athletes.”Landroche felt the effects as well. Janelle Mazzaferro ’09came to Tilton as a highly-touted soccer player. But by thespring graduation, the senior had made her presence felt inall three seasons.“She was a terrific soccer player, but I didn’t realize shecould play basketball, too,” Landroche said. “I saw her takea jump shot at the first day of tryouts and she just had abeautiful touch. Then it turns out she anchored ourdefense at second base in softball.”“These coaches we have now and we’re bringing inare getting more dedicated to finding the right kids,”Hollingsworth added. “And yes, winning is important, butthese coaches are not going to be judged on how many gamesthey win, but on what kind of experience the kids are having.“Are they coming back? Are they learning, progressing?Teach them the right way to play the game and the winningwill follow.”That’s where Brisson’s role in the Admissions Officebecomes momentous.“The fact that she has coached in college, recruited collegeplayers and has been on the other side of that process, knowingwhat it takes to recruit a high school player is just huge,” saidDirector of Admissions Beth Skoglund. “She’s enthusiastic,willing to learn new things and is really a triple threat withher work in admissions, athletics as a whole, and as a coach.”Landroche recognized the value of girls’ athletics whenhe arrived on campus nearly 30 years ago. Thirty yearsfrom now, Healy hopes to leave a similar legacy to the oneLandroche inspired.“It wasn’t long ago that girls went into the chapel to hearthe announcements on Friday about athletic teams and itwas all about the guys winning and girls losing – thatwasn’t good for the health of the school,” Healy said.“We’re heading in the right direction for sure, but I’m notgoing to feel good until I can come into the rink and seeone of our own (girls’ hockey) banners on the wall.”It’s a dream that isn’t far from becoming reality for all thegirls’ programs. And with coaches focused on everythingfrom fundamentals to winning to community, it’s easy to seewhy Tilton’s potential for success is not only an immediateone, but one without limits.Fall 2009 | 15

Maloney Hall DedicatedMarks New Era in Tilton School HistoryOn May 8, 2009, the Tilton School community gathered to mark thededication of Maloney Hall, a new dormitory for Tilton Schoolstudents, and to acknowledge the support and leadership of Thomas“TJ” and Nancy Maloney of Connecticut. The Maloney family wasofficially recognized with the dedication of the building named in theirhonor. The Maloney’s two sons, Jack ’05 and Thomas ’09 are graduatesof the Tilton School.16 | Fall 2009

Maloney Hall represents a shift in housing to the smallfamily-style dorm that allows for increased residentialinteraction among faculty and students and representsTilton’s ongoing commitment to quality housing and toattracting new students. The 15,000 square foot dormitoryfeatures contemporary, bright and spacious dormitoryrooms, a recreation room and a common room forresidential gathering and communal space. Three facultyapartments in multi-level townhouse style are also integratedinto the residence hall which houses twenty 12thgrade and post graduate girls.Maloney Hall’s overall design compliments theSchool’s existing traditional architecture, new academicbuilding and the pastoral campus of a New Englandboarding school. It was in the Fred A. Smart Chapelwhere over 400 distinguished guests, alumni, faculty,administrators, staff, and students gathered for thededication ceremony. The ceremony was followed by theunveiling of the naming plaque at Maloney Hall whereresidents of the hall presented the Maloney family with aGiclée print on canvas, designed by Kellie Simons ’09,a Maloney Hall resident.Sharing the podium were Thomas E. Callahan ’58,Tilton School Board of Trustees President; Scott F. Willson,’09 Student Body President; Maloney Hall resident,Miyoshie Lamothe-Aime ’09; Trustee Dr. R. Thomas Finn,Jr.; Thomas “TJ” and Mrs. Nancy Maloney; and James R.Clements, Head of School. Clements, who began his 12thyear with the institution in July, is credited for instituting amodel with the Tilton School Board of Trustees forvisioning and planning for progress.Speaking on behalf of the Tilton School Board ofTrustees, Thomas Callahan ’58 Chairman of Board,said, “Today, we say thank you to all of the Trustees fortheir courage and commitment which made all of thispossible. In particular, we want to thank TJ and NancyMaloney and their family for their generosity to makethis residential hall a reality.” Willson then spoke abouthis relationship with the Maloney family, his gratitudefor their support of the Tilton School community, andhow privileged he felt to have been a part of the School’stransformation. Said Willson, “A simple thank you tothe Maloney family is not sufficient enough to conveymy appreciation given their generosity to everyone oncampus.” Lamothe-Aime recounted her decision tomove into the new dormitory, painted a vivid picture oftouring college residence halls, and longing to return toher beautiful home at Tilton.Prior to the unveiling of the naming plaque, Mr. andMrs. Maloney each spoke about the honor. In Mr.Maloney’s dedication remarks he reminded all in attendancethat “We are all here for the students of Tilton.”He went on to say, “When I first came to Tilton, whatimpressed me was the emphasis on students by JimClements and all of the Trustees. We are all here todaybecause we are dedicated to helping Tilton studentsestablish the necessary foundation for a successful life.”Maloney continued, “My wish for all of the students atTilton is that you believe in yourself, that you accept andlearn from life’s disappointments and that you savor life’ssuccesses.” Mr. Maloney is President of LincolnshireManagement, Inc., New York, New York. He is a memberof the Board of Trustees and the finance committee ofTilton School.Nancy Maloney recounted, “While it was the bricks andmortar that got us to Tilton, it was what was inside thisphysical plant that has kept us involved here. Tilton is aplace that succeeds in its spirit and its understanding ofyoung people.”Head of School, Jim Clements, closed the dedicationceremony with a moving tribute to “home.” Readingaloud Mary Oliver’s poem, “The House” from DreamWork, 1986, Clements cited the poem’s last phrase, “I’mhinging the doors – once they are up they will lift theireasy latches, they will open like wings.” Maloney Hall ismore than a residence hall. It is a home, open and full oflife, and it is with gratitude that we thank the Maloneyfamily for helping us grow our wings.”Fall 2009 | 17

Tom DeRigo, Director F.I.R.S.T. Program, and guestspeaker, spoke about his special connection to the class,especially to the four year seniors and reminisced how somany of the 9th Grade team of teachers had forged strongbonds with the class. DeRigo analyzed a poem, entitled,“Wild Geese” by Mary Oliver, to describe what everyteacher who loves kids is trying to explain to them, “notabout Calculus or Literature or Chemistry, but about life.”Said DeRigo, “The poem explains much about whystudents and teachers connect with one another, and whatwe can all learn from one another.” “To find our place inthe family of things we must always strive, with persistenceand joy, not to fall victim to loneliness…to feeling sorryfor ourselves. When we do feel like this, we must ACT…we are responsible to move a muscle and thereby changeour thoughts to those of humble pride and reasonablecontentment about who we are and what we do. When weare careful to behave with integrity in the service of others,we do find our place in the family of things.The following is an excerpt of Abby Polkinghorn’s heartfeltspeech during graduation:“Tilton allowed me to thrive, which I was once told Icould never do. John F. Kennedy said, ‘As we express ourgratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciationis not to utter words, but to live by them.’ I don’t know howto express the gratefulness I have towards Tilton other thanin thanks. But I do plan to live exactly how each Tiltonstudent has lived, with the knowledge that we each areallowed to succeed and never to stop when we have beentold that we have met our own capabilities – a right thatuntil it is taken away from you, you will never know howvaluable it is. I would like to thank each person who took achance on me when allowing me to be a part of this schooland to those who led me to know that I could once againbe a learner. I could never have known then what Tiltonwould do to change me but I will certainly never forgethow it has changed me.My classmates and I have each come to Tilton to betterourselves as people in some form. Boarding school, I havefound, is a bizarre situation where every type of person isbrought to coexist with one another. It has the amazingability to form relationships with the most unlikely ofpeople. For whatever reason we each were brought to theTilton School, my graduates and I all came here with theintent to be bettered solely by our teachers and our school.But I think that we have actually been bettered by oneanother. E.E. Cummings once said, ‘It takes courage toAbby Polkinghorn ’09Wild Geese by Mary OliverYou do not have to be good.You do not have to walk on your kneesFor a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.You only have to let the soft animal of your bodylove what it loves.Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.Meanwhile the world goes on.Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rainare moving across the landscapes,over the prairies and the deep trees,the mountains and the rivers.Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,are heading home again.Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,the world offers itself to your imagination,calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting --over and over announcing your placein the family of things.grow up and become who you really are.’ I once thoughtthat courage was found merely within one’s self. Butthroughout my time here it has become overwhelminglyclear to me that through the force of each other we have allbeen able to find out who we are as people during ourteenage years. I think that people are ever changing and wewill never stop learning things that make us differ how weact as human beings. I believe that we, the graduates, havetaught one another some of the most important tools thatwe will need in our lives. The eye can more easily see someof these changes that we have helped make in each other.But some of these changes we will only discover haveoccurred once we leave this place and each other for good.So I would like to thank each of my classmates now forwhat you have taught me during my time here. I humblywish you all the best in your future and hope you will findfurther success in whatever way the word may mean toyou. Congratulations to each and everyone. I wish you allthe best of luck!”Derrick Melan ’09Scott Willson ’09Fall 2009 | 19

spring sports highlightsBOYS’ VARSITY BASEBALLWith a number ofplayers graduated fromthe 2008 Lakes RegionChampionship squad, itlooked as though thiswould be a rebuildingyear for the VarsityBaseball team, however,the Rams exceededexpectations and won a share of the Lakes Region title –its third in four seasons.After losing its first two games, the Rams rebounded withbig come-from-behind wins over KUA and Vermont. Tiltondefeated Holderness three times and also swept Brewsterand Proctor en route to nine consecutive league victories.The team finished its season at 12-5 (10-2 in league play).The MVP award went to co-captain Eddie Dobrowolski’09, who batted a stellar .613, while leading the team inevery offensive category (five home runs, 32 RBI). The MIPaward went to co-captain Eric Hollingsworth ’09, whoplayed second base and was second on the team in hitting at.444. Both Hollingsworth and Dobrowolski “will be sorelymissed,” said Coach Ken Hollingsworth, “but will leaveknowing that Tilton earned an unprecedented three LakesRegion championships over their four years on the team.”Will Emerson ’09 and Josh Chronopoulos ’09 were namedto the Lakes Region All-Star team, while Dobrowolskiearned League MVP and Pitcher of the Year honors.Coach Hollingsworth is looking forward to next yearwith the likes of underclassmen Scott McMenimen ’11,Ricky Miller, Troy Morin ’10 and Pavel Pluhar ’10returning to the club.Hollingsworth also bid “thanks to all the team’s playersfor their hard work and positive sportsmanship throughoutthe season,” as well as a special thanks to “the graduatingplayers – John Falco, Matt Schwalm, Alex Slater and MattWrenn – for their contributions to the program.BOYS’ JV TENNISThe spring Boys’ JVTennis team was “thestrongest group ofplayers” Coach GeoffreyBlum has seen in hisfour years at Tilton. Thiswas due in large part to astronger group of playersat the varsity level,creating a trickle down effect. Unfortunately, the league wasalso stronger and Rams finished the season at 3-7. But mostof the matches were close and had a couple of close individualmatches broke in the Rams’ favor, the record “could easilyhave been reversed,” according to Blum.Many players showed improvement throughout theseason, making the choice for MIP a tough one. But thedistinction went to Jiong “Sonic” Xu ’10, who started theseason playing only doubles matches. After the first coupleof matches, however, Xu showed a determination to improvehis game, challenging the players above him on the ladder.By the midpoint of the season Xu was flourishing at No. 2singles despite battling a lingering wrist problem. At onepoint, the wrist bothered him so much that instead ofsitting out of practice he played left-handed.The MVP award went to Yunzheng Jiang ’11, a playerwho quickly established himself as the player to beat at No.1 singles. Jiang had many impressive matches – highlightedby a 9-7 loss to Brewster Academy’s No. 1 – that theBrewster coach called it the best match he’d seen all season.Jiang also worked hard to improve his game, losing his firstmatch of the season, 8-6, to Proctor Academy’s No. 1, onlyto defeat the same opponent, 8-2, later in the season.BOYS’ LACROSSEThe Boys’ Varsity Lacrosse team finished the season witha record of 5-9 in the Lakes Region and Northern NewEngland lacrosse leagues.

The solid production landed himon the NNELL All-League team, along with Livingston, for hisrole as the Rams Defensive Player of the Season. In addition tothese honors, Andy Dustin ’10, Morgan Weireter ’10 andDavis were announced as All-League Honorable Mentions.Most notably, however, the team was unanimously votedas this year’s recipient of the Bill Pottle Award, given to theteam that best exemplifies team sportsmanship.CYCLINGThe Cycling teamcelebrated its springseason with threereturning riders, SashaGilbert ’10, Andy Nagel’10 and Guliang “Andre”Fu ’10, adding muchneeded experience to theyouthful squad.

Assistant Coach Sean Doherty helped theteam ride safely and was a key factor in training rides.Doherty also played an instrumental role in developing thespeed and endurance of the Rams’ top two riders, Gilbertand Kessler, who were able to increase their speed anddistance over the season. As a result, “The duo becamemore experienced and more confident riders, making iteasier for them to stay with their competitive groupsduring each week of the New England Prep School Leaguecampaign,” said Head Coach Jeff Nielson.Kessler scored in the Kimball Union Academy PointsRace, Exeter Time Trial and the Profile Road Race. Gilbertadded points in the Proctor Road Race – held at NewHampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon – as well as theProfile Road Race and the season finale around NewfoundLake in the New Hampton Championship Road Race.Coach Nielson noted that “the goal of the program is tobecome better cyclists, where competitions help measurethat growth,” but it’s not the only way to developimprovement. The team’s youngest member, Zhu, hadnever ridden a road bike prior to coming to Tilton, butfrom the very first day she showed that she understood thefundamentals of smooth pedaling and consistent effort.Likewise, Nagel and Fu demonstrated growth during theirrespective second seasons. The pair completed races androde more aggressively; moreover, Nielson saw “Confidencein their ability to ride longer distances.”SOFTBALLWith a 14-4 win overBrewster Academy in thefinal game of the season,the Varsity Softball teamclinched the LakesRegion Championshipto cap off a successful11-1 spring campaign.The Rams went outof the chute fast, beatingKimball Union Academy (twice) and Holderness.

The team’s other 10th grader, Melissa Lee, showed alot of heart despite spending most of the season recoveringfrom injury. Eleventh graders Yariana Clas (.273) andCourtney Popsie (.433) provided offensive and defensiveconsistency along with quiet, yet effective, team leadership.30 | Fall 2009

Arthur Bates P’81, 1984-1989 04/25/2009George B. Law, 1974-1992 03/07/2009Howard Kanovitz ’45, a pioneer of the Photo Realismstyle of painting, which emerged in the 1960s as a reactionagainst abstraction in general and Abstract Expressionismin particular, passed away on February 2, 2009. He was 79and lived in Southampton, NY.Rather than entirely deconstructing or obliterating therecognizable in their painted imagery, the Photo Realistssought nearly, but not quite, to recreate the real and thussuggest an ambiguity between that and what is imagined.They drew on actual photographs as research for theirpaintings, sometimes as virtual blueprints, and presentedtheir images with photographic detail.Mr. Kanovitz’s technique was to project photographicimages onto a canvas and paint over them, allowing themto guide the work in composition and scale. Workspresented in his first solo show as a Photo Realist, at theJewish Museum in Manhattan in 1966, put him at theforefront of a movement that gathered momentum in thenext several years and included Chuck Close, RalphGoings and Richard Estes.“His influence was that he made working fromphotographs seem like a good idea,” said Mr. Close.Often misunderstood as photographic replication,Photo Realism was actually more about questioning whatis thought of as reality than about representing it. In asignature work called “The Opening,” (1967), for example,Mr. Kanovitz painted a gallery-show opening attended byprominent members of the New York art scene – painters,critics, curators and the like – all of whom would berecognizable to visitors at the gallery where the paintingwas being shown, and whose images were drawn fromphotographs taken at actual art openings. As a companionpiece, he created stand-alone canvases of individual people(also from images snapped at openings) who are seen gazingat the painting, an implicit query into the relationshipbetween looking and being looked at.Howard Earl Kanovitz was born on Feb. 9, 1929, in FallRiver, MA, where his father was a clothing manufacturer. Hegraduated from Providence College and later spent twoyears at the Rhode Island School of Design; he also studiedart history at New York University. As a painter, Mr.Kanovitz was a student of Franz Kline, and his early work,in the 1950s, was in the Abstract Expressionist mode, thenongeometric, emotion-infused style favored by Kline,Jackson Pollock and others, which he came to see as astifling trend. He broke away from it in the early 1960s.“It was an orthodoxy, like a religion,” he recalled in a1969 interview with Grace Glueck in The New YorkTimes. “You were into it or you were out.”Mr. Kanovitz actually grew up not wanting to be apainter at all but a musician. Before becoming an artist, heplayed the trombone professionally, including a stint inGene Krupa’s band. He continued to play throughout hislife, often in the company of his friend and fellow painterFall 2009 | 47

He was both feared and respected.“As the climate of the sixties changed and the School movedinto the difficult period marking the end of the decade,schools like Tilton suffered from the perception of a tightlystructured approach to school life with outmoded standardsfor academics, dress, and behavior. It was at this ratherunattractive moment that that John Daly, Tilton Trustee,turned to his old friend John MacMorran, who had up tothat point taught languages, worked in admissions, led theTiltonaires and the discipline committee, and asked him tobecome the School’s headmaster.” 1John Mac was quick to remind the School that the “offer”was extended on April Fool’s Day but graciously acceptedthe offer and held it for eleven years. Mac set a profoundexample of commitment and integrity in everything he didon behalf of Tilton School inspiring others to do the same.“John made it a point to learn the name of each student inschool within the first days of each new year. Such a50 | Fall 20091 Office of Communications Press Release “John MacMorran ReceivesDaly Award from Tilton School,” 8/27/91

“Many students keep in touch with me by phone, letters or e-mail. Whatfascinates me is that some of the most appreciative letters are from studentswho while at Tilton found me quite demanding but now express thanks forhaving standards and holding students to them.” - MACMORRAN, 3/08/03memorable feat did much to show new students that theymattered and were of special interest to ‘the man at the top.’He was always willing to spend time with students. In fact,he often moved students to his house to live if he felt that hisinfluence could help those struggling with bad decisions toget back on track.” 2MacMorran served as the school’s 21st headmaster from1971-1982. In Mr. MacMorran’s eleven years as headmaster,the student enrollment increased 50% and the endowmentdoubled. In addition, the School’s physical plant wasenhanced through a new field house, student center, artscenter, science laboratories, swimming pool, and a newtheater auditorium.From 1949 to 1951, John taught countless students inFrench and Latin except for the one year he was off campusto study for and receive a masters degree. He returned toTilton in 1963 where he again taught French, served asDirector of Admissions, and Director of Dormitories untilhis appointment as Headmaster in 1971.John MacMorran was born in St. Stephen, NewBrunswick, Canada on August 17, 1924, son of Albert Ernestand Olive Folsom MacMorran. He graduated from CalaisAcademy in 1942 as class valedictorian and entered BowdoinCollege after winning a scholarship from the state of Maine.At Bowdoin, he majored in French and minored in Latin andreceived his A.B. degree in 1946. He continued his educationat the Ecole Francaise at Middlebury College in the summerof 1949 and received his MA in French Literature fromBoston University in 1950. In 1981, Bowdoin Collegeawarded him its Distinguished Educator Award.After retiring as Headmaster in 1982, MacMorran stayedon at Tilton School as Dorm master of the 9th grade boysHarrington House and also as a Latin teacher. Upon his retirementas Headmaster, he commented, “Philosophically, I amconvinced that academic institutions are best nourished andserved by the infusion of new perspectives and leadership everydecade; and I have personal plans with respect to family, andmy native part of Maine, that need my attention and service.”In 1982, Tilton School initiated the MacMorranEnrichment Program supported by an endowment establishedin his name. The program helps full-time classroom andLearning Center faculty create opportunities for professionalrenewal and enrichment. It encourages work, study notspecifically focused on an advanced degree, and independentprojects designed as summer “mini sabbaticals.” Grants offera stipend and cover project expenses. The MacMorranEnrichment Program has inspired authentic professionalgrowth of Tilton School faculty and has meaningfullycontributed to the School’s educational program. The fundhas helped an average of 5-10 faculty members each year.The MacMorran Scholars Program recognizes the excellentscholarship and effort of Tilton students who achieve at thehighest academic performance level at the school. Students,who earn academic grades at the High Honors level, earneffort grades at the Effort Honors level, miss no commitments,and have no tardiness and detentions are recognized as aMacMorran Scholar. MacMorran Scholars earn specialprivileges and have their names placed on a plaque in themain lobby of Plimpton Hall. In John MacMorran’s honorMemorial Gifts may be made to Tilton School.After his retirement in 1987 from Tilton School, hetraveled extensively and continued to be active in music,drama and art – all lifelong pursuits. He retired to a housethat had been in his family for five generations, BenjaminPomeroy his great-grandfather being the first settler on whatis now known as Pomeroy Ridge.“It seems that John can leave Tilton School, but TiltonSchool is reluctant to leave John Mac. No matter where yougo, your Tilton connections seem to catch up. I hope youdon’t mind that. I’m sure that alumni appreciate the chance“On the other hand, after 41 years ofworking with students, I miss them, sincethe great majority were really good andonly a handful were disagreeable.”- MACMORRAN, 11/02/97to keep in contact with their old school master.” 3 Fall 2009 | 512 Office of Communications Press Release “John MacMorran Receives Daly Award from Tilton School,” 8/27/913 Robert B.
