Fine and Performing Arts Thrive at STS Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up. For this reason and more, the arts – theatre, chorus, band and visual art – are thriving at STS, and a sampling of spring events – Pablo Picasso proves this point.

Drama teacher Lynne Sizemore is quick to point out the multiple benefits of the performing arts. “Theatre teaches time management, gives students the opportunity to ‘think on their feet’, and serves as an outlet for students much as sports do,” she explained. “We are fortunate that our administration recognizes the impact of the performing arts on the creative abilities of students and how that impact influences them as they become adults.” In Tales, Long and Short, students selected nursery rhymes and stories and rewrote them with a contemporary twist. The story of David and Goliath, for example, was reworked to reflect the problem of bullying in today’s schools. “Humpty Dumpty, Grumpy continued on page 12 7/12/2010 6:06:50 PM Headmaster’s Letter A year has passed since our last St. Timothy’s School Spirit and we’ve done our best to capture as much of the past year as these pages will allow. As you will note, our Annual Report – usually a free-standing publication – is incorporated into this newsletter on pages 14-19. This was more than an editing decision; it was a necessity. Around the time that Lisa Ham, our Director of Development, would have sat down to begin the Annual Report, she was diagnosed with cancer. Around the time that the fiscal year-in-review would have reached mailboxes, she passed away. Michael S. Bailey were an emotionally devastated school, yet we found the strength to carry on. For the sake of the 500 bright, smiling faces that appear in our halls each day, we carried on to fulfill the mission of our school by committing ourselves to the educational excellence and the emotional, physical and spiritual growth of children in an environment where traditional Christian values are emphasized. “When we become what God has put us on this earth to be, we find that we have enormous reservoirs of strength.” Bishop Curry were overflowing with proud parents and family members for the graduation of our eighth grade class. The Rt. Rev. Michael S. Curry, Bishop of the Diocese of North Carolina, delivered the commencement address. In a Fast forward to May 27. The pews of St. Timothy’s Church “When we become what God has put us on this earth to be,” Bishop Curry said, “we find that we have enormous reservoirs of strength.” This has been a year when all of us – students, faculty, parents and administrators – have dipped into that reservoir. n It’s been a difficult year for St. Timothy’s School. Three faculty members buried their mothers, another lost a sister to cancer, and our cherished colleague was gone at age 39. By mid-year we Denisen Croom (left) and Rachel Erwin (right) share a moment with Bishop Curry at graduation in May. A W ord From the Rector The Reverend Jay C. James S This is an “old” model for overseeing the running of a parochial school. Some would say that it’s “antique” and even “old fashioned”. I prefer to call it “traditional” and “time-tested”. This model works very well for us in the Church and the School because of its simplicity, its proper alignment of priorities, and the fact that it lets me operate under my favorite administrative principle “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” t. Timothy’s School is an outreach of the faith and practice of St. Timothy’s Church. Our School exists and operates because the members of St. Timothy’s Church believe that teaching children is an important calling of Jesus Christ. If St. Timothy’s Church did not see the education of children as a calling then there would be no St. Timothy’s School. This calling is really what makes us a Christian School. We assume that when parents give us the honor and privilege of educating their children that the parents know that we are trying to carry out our calling. As St. Paul charges our own St. Timothy, But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. At St. Timothy’s Church we are only trying to “make full proof of (our) ministry” by reaching out to children with the ministry of St. Timothy’s School. In practice this model is successful because the ministries of the Church and the School are mutually beneficial and because of basic “good will”. The Church benefits because it has a ministry that truly reaches out to the community with its School. The School benefits because it is grounded in Christian principles and an Anglican Tradition that give it weight, purpose and stability. With this mutually beneficial relationship is the cooperation and unityof-purpose between our Vestry and School Board. The concerned, talented and faithful members of both the Vestry and School Board share and generate good will that redounds to the success of both the Church and the School. So what is the relation of the Church to our parochial School by virtue of being a ministry of our Church? From a spiritual perspective the relation is that the Holy Ghost has called the Church to minister to children by enlightening their hearts, minds, bodies and souls. This takes the shape, from a practical perspective, of the Vestry of St. Timothy’s Church giving authority to the School Board to govern the School. The Vestry of the Church allows St. Timothy’s School to exist and gives our School Board the authority to raise money, hire the headmaster and make major policy decisions for the School. The Rector of St. Timothy’s Church is the chairman of the School Board and appoints School Board members. These lines of authority are really that simple. st. timothy’s schooL STS_Spring2010.indd 2 simple 10-minute homily, the bishop said something that truly resonated. How thankful we should be to the men and women who volunteer so much of their time, talent and treasure to serve on the Vestry of the Church and St. Timothy’s School Board. God is truly working through their presence on both organizations to the benefit of our children. May God continue to bless the work He began fifty-two years ago because this work is a great blessing to our children. 2 s p i r i T SPRI N G 2010 7/12/2010 6:06:57 PM A Lisa Permar Ham: 1970-2010 s Director of Development, it was Lisa Ham’s job to cultivate goodwill and giving at St. Timothy’s. Bruce Ham (right) with Eric and Shari Frederick of “Team Ham” from First Presbyterian Church. Spring Sprint Remembers Lisa Ham C lose to $24,000 was raised at the fifth annual Spring Sprint, held this year in memory of Lisa Ham and in support of those struggling with cancer. Proceeds will fund an award in colorectal research at the Duke Comprehensive Cancer Center, where Lisa was treated for the cancer that claimed her life so abruptly last February. The Durham facility is one of only 40 nationwide designated by the National Cancer Institute as a comprehensive cancer center. The award in Lisa’s memory will be bestowed at an annual cancer conference at Duke University in the fall. A record number of runners, walkers and volunteers – over 1,000 – participated in the 5K Run/Walk, 1 Mile Fun Run and 50 Yard Dash in April. a sizeable contingent from Raleigh’s First Presbyterian Church, came out to honor the memory of a cherished friend and colleague. “When Lisa was diagnosed last fall,” said race coordinator and STS Director of Marketing Sharon Keen, “we decided immediately to designate the Comprehensive Cancer Center as the recipient of our proceeds.” It was suggested that the race be held In Honor of Lisa Ham. Not one to draw attention to herself, and always mindful of the trials and tribulations of others, Lisa resisted. She relented only when the phrase “and Others Struggling With Cancer” was added. n But fundraising, albeit an important part of Lisa’s job, wasn’t even what she did best. What Lisa Ham did better than anyone else was to develop relationships. She developed respected relationships with students, as a journalism teacher and their Student Council advisor. She developed mutually rewarding relationships with teachers, as the mother of three STS students and a member of the school’s strategic planning committee who sought and valued their input. She developed personal relationships with parents, as a fellow parent and the administrative liaison to Friends of St. Timothy’s. She developed milestone relationships with alumni, forming an Alumni Council to provide a lasting connection to the school. And she developed loving relationships within the STS administration which, in a small, independent school, operates much like an extended family. Some were avid runners who registered when the Sprint became part of the Second Empire Grand Prix, a series of nine local running races held each year. Others, including Above: It’s a race to the finish line for STS student Blake Koch. Left: First grade teacher Debbie Potter and husband Bob (right) pose with parents and students for a pre-race photo. st. timothy’s schooL STS_Spring2010.indd 3 Much can be said about her professional accomplishments, most notably steering a campaign that produced the new school building dedicated in 2006. Managing capital campaigns and annual funds was a part of the job that she tackled with enthusiasm and determination. 3 s p i r i T SPRI N G Diagnosed less than six months earlier, Lisa succumbed to colon cancer on February 24, 2010. Upbeat until the end, she threatened to expel from “Team Lisa” anyone who did not believe she would beat the odds. In the end, the odds were simply unbeatable. It has been written that Lisa Permar Ham was “the heartbeat of her entire family.” We at St. Timothy’s would like to add “and an entire school.” 2010 7/12/2010 6:07:41 PM Looking Back on 2009-2010 Another Great School Year! W ith the blink of an eye, another year goes by. And what a year it’s been! Before the school year even began last August, our Friends of St. Timothy’s machine was in motion planning a welcome breakfast for new students and parents. Meet the Teacher nights soon followed. Practice began for middle school students on the cross country, volleyball, tennis and soccer teams. We settled into routines. In September, students who read all summer long and completed challenging math packets were rewarded with an ice cream party and a bagel breakfast. Student Council elections were held, first graders met their fifth grade Study Buddies, and field trips took students to the Alice Aycock Poe Center, North Carolina Museum of History and Quail Corners Animal Hospital. October brought the Pumpkin Parade and Fall Festival, two of our perennial favorites. In November, we turned more introspective with our annual “We Can Share” food drive and kindergarten Thanksgiving program. Basketball and cheerleading dominated the Titan athletic scene; our hard-working scholars were inducted into the National Junior Honor Society. By December, students were mastering their roles for the 53rd performance of the STS Christmas Pageant. Our talented band and chorus performed at a joint concert. Student Council sponsored its annual toy drive so that parents could obtain presents for their children through North Raleigh Ministries. st. timothy’s schooL STS_Spring2010.indd 4 4 s p i r i T SPRI N G 2010 7/12/2010 6:08:20 PM Aloha! In January, kindergarteners learning about Hawaii enjoyed a luau with their fourth grade Biggles. The Science Fair brought esteemed local scientists on campus to judge the impressive entries of our students. And parents began to make summer plans for their children at our annual Camp Fair. dents as they wrote, directed and starred in Tales, Long and Short. May was soon upon us, but instead of winding down the year we went into overdrive! Open House highlighted our student accomplishments through classroom exhibits, art shows, and performances by band and chorus. Honors Reading participants handed in journals for each of the 15 books they had read since September and were honored at an ice cream social. If it’s February, this must be… Spirit Week! For one glorious week, the dress code was relaxed in favor of a daily theme for clothing – like Crazy Hat Day! Before winter break, Student Council and Friends of St. Timothy’s joined forces for Balloon Day. With the help of many parent volunteers, the campus was transformed into a bobbing sea of red and white balloons – the STS way of celebrating Valentine’s Day! March arrived, as did soccer, tennis and baseball. A new tradition that became an instant hit, the International Festival, moved from multi-purpose room to dining hall to gym to accommodate its rapid growth. Family Night Bingo was, as always, a huge success. And kindergarteners entertained us all at the Hat Parade, performing a seasonal song and dance revue in their creative Easter bonnets! There were no April showers at the Spring Sprint; it was glorious weather for the 1,000+ volunteers and participants in the 5K Run/Walk and 1 Mile Fun Run, held this year in memory of our beloved Lisa Ham and in honor of those suffering from cancer. April also showcased the many talents of our theatre arts stu- st. timothy’s schooL STS_Spring2010.indd 5 5 s p i r i T SPRI N G Our soon-to-graduate eighth graders traveled to Washington, DC to visit historic museums and monuments. Fourth graders headed for the beach to cement their study of ocean life by clamming, pulling in crab pots, shell collecting and pulling seine nets in the marsh. Blue and White Days brought the revenge of the Blue as they dethroned White from a dominance of many years. The Titan Sports Banquet honored student athletes for a year of accomplishments. And at commencement exercises rounding out the month of May, The Right Rev. Michael Curry, Bishop of the Diocese of North Carolina, urged our graduates to “go forth from this place and let your light shine.” n 2010 7/12/2010 6:08:50 PM t i t a n s W e lc o m e to T i ta n C o u n tr y ! I t’s hard to believe another year has passed in Titan Country! The Titans achieved not only incredible accolades in fierce competition, but also represented the school community with pride and determination showing great sportsmanship and learning valuable life lessons in and out of the athletic arena. Bringing home the Triangle Middle School Conference Tournament Championship looked easy as the Lady Titan Volleyball Team literally “volleyed” their way to victory under the experienced gaze of Coach Judy Whitley. The team ended with an overall record of 14 wins and 3 losses with a conference record of 6-2, placing them as the regular season conference runner-up. Through the leadership of the nine eighth graders on the team, the ladies were able to fight off a tough Bethesda Christian Academy team contending for the championship. Three team managers, Evan Fritsch, Victoria Griffin, and Maribelle Scoggin, helped the team stay organized both on the road and at Titan arena. The team will be losing 10 seasoned eighth grade players to graduation; however, both talent and skill should continue to reign on the squad next fall. The Titan Boys’ Soccer Team letes comprised the co-ed team, all of whom learned the benefits of cross country running as not only a competitive sport but also as a means to lifetime physical fitness. Spectators should expect to see another strong squad this coming season. finished second in regular season conference play with a conference record of 5 wins, 2 losses, and 1 tie against the Kestrel Heights Charter School “Hawks”. Coach Dan Williams had a core group of eighth graders who helped lead the team to their impressive record. Eighth grade goalkeeper Wesley Smith and defensive phenomenon Jarrett Cervi proved to be valuable assets during the season, according to Coach Williams. Only five members of the 19 member squad will be leaving upon graduation. The returning squad will be a potent threat for the Fall 2010 season! The Fall 2009 season also proved to be a fruitful time for the Lady Titan Tennis Team. The girls finished with 8 wins and 2 losses in the TMSC and 12-4 with their non-conference opponents added. Coach Matt Scheer finished his sixth st. timothy’s schooL STS_Spring2010.indd 6 season as head coach. The ladies clinched second place in regular season conference play and were awarded the runner-up trophy in the TMSC tournament, losing to a tough Magellan Charter School team. The team will bid farewell this spring to long time players and eighth graders Endia McCray, Katie Vaughan, and Catherine Monaco. However, the lineup should still be strong as nine players will be returning next year! Under the leadership and development of Coach Mike McConeghy, the St. Timothy’s School Boys’ and Girls’ Cross Country Team dominated the TMSC landscape with the girls winning first place in 8 out of 9 meets and the boys taking first or second place in 6 out of 9 meets last fall. Individual runners Chase McCord and Ryen Frazier both brought home individual championships in the TMSC championship race, leading both the girls’ and boy’s squads to another team championship! Thirty-two student-ath- 6 s p i r i T SPRI N G The Boys’ “White” Basketball Team displayed tremendous resolve and determination against some seasoned teams as they grew from a young team into an improved squad with depth, skill, and court knowledge. Coach Allen Patton focused on teaching the team fundamentals, plays, and how the game of basketball applies to everyday life. Teamwork and quick-thinking proved to be indispensable assets for the team as they matured at the end of the season. The team will prove to be a formidable foe as members approach a new season with important skills under their belts. 2010 7/12/2010 6:09:12 PM Finishing with a 7-3 record in the conference, only losing to a tough Kestrel Heights team, the Boys’ “Blue” Basketball Team under seasoned Coach B.J. Nowak slid into second place in the regular season and second place in the TMSC tournament. The boys were led by eighth grade captains Patrick Renegar and Jarrett Cervi. They demonstrated discipline and dedication while Coach Nowak focused not only on basketball skills, but on life skills as well like character and cooperation. Even though the team will be losing 8 out of the 11 players to graduation, the players left behind will develop into leaders for the rising sixth graders joining the squad. son. The girls continually closed the point gap as the season progressed, playing tough defense and improving offensively. Bringing home second place in regular season play and second place in the TMSC tournament, the Girls’ “Blue” Basketball Team also finished 7-3 in the conference like their boys’ team counterpart. Coach Judy Whitley depended on the leadership of the seven eighth grade girls to guide the team to its successful finish. The squad proved to be both tenacious and skilled in tough battles with opponents like Kestrel Heights Charter School, sometimes clinching victory in the last few minutes of the game by just a few points. one penalty kick to an exhausted Franklin Academy team. Captains Yasmeen Mustafa, Cameron Perry, Rachel Schwitzgebel and Meredith Burke led the team throughout the season, igniting a team that was extremely cooperative and intuitive on the field. The Girls’ Soccer Team headed, kicked, and dribbled their way to an undefeated conference record, finishing 10-0. Led by Coach Judy Whitley, a former North Carolina State soccer player, the team finished 12-1-3 overall, between their conference and non-conference opponent games during the regular season. The girls clinched the trophy for regular season TMSC champions. After playing for over two hours – an hour of regular match play, two 10-minute overtimes and a round of penalty kicks – the Titan ladies lost by Sliding into second place in the TMSC regular season and bringing home second place in the TMSC tournament was the TITAN Boys’ Baseball Team led by Coach Tim Hart. Finishing 7-3 in the TMSC conference and bringing home a 10-4 record between non-conference and conference contests, the baseball team racked up a total of 193 runs throughout the regular season. Pitchers Jake The Girls’ “White” Basketball Team improved exponentially throughout the season. Some players began the season with little knowledge of the sport and had never played before. By the end of the season, the girls were working as a well-oiled machine to execute plays, pass and feed the ball around the court, and set up tough defensive maneuvers. The highlight of the season was the tremendous 19-9 victory over Saint Mary Magdalene School in Apex, NC. The girls proved their weight in gold to Coach Tim Hart, who was very pleased with their progress throughout the long winter sea- Guided by Coach Ashley Eubanks, the Boys’ Tennis Team finished fourth in the Triangle Middle School Conference this spring. The boys had an excellent season, ending with a record of 9-9 in regular season conference and non-conference play and including the two rounds of the tournament that they played. Everyone on the team improved both in skill and knowledge of the game. The team lost to a talented Cary Academy squad the first match of the year 1-8. By the semi-final round of the tournament, however, the TITANS had improved greatly and only lost to the Chargers 3-6, winning all three doubles slots. The team will lose three eighth graders, Walker Adams, Conrad Crounse and John Austin Luck; however, they have great depth and should be a powerhouse next spring! n – Josh White, Athletic Director st. timothy’s schooL STS_Spring2010.indd 7 Turley, Patrick Renegar, Bryan Hall and Joseph Ward enabled the Titan squad to shut down their opponents game after game. Three tough games against the Grace Christian School of Sanford Crusaders kept the Titan baseball team from clinching the conference title. The boys exhibited tenacity and heart in learning new skills in practice and executing them in game situations. 7 s p i r i T SPRI N G 2010 7/12/2010 6:09:31 PM a lu m n i n e ws Adult Alumni Meet at Annual Social in November T he Cardinal Club in downtown Raleigh was the scene of the annual Alumni Social last November. Close to 100 alumni from the greater Raleigh area were joined by classmates from across the state and beyond for an evening of reminiscing and catching up. Chrissy Bolin Rand received the unofficial prize for traveling the farthest, from Ponte Verde, Florida. The adult Alumni Social is held on the first Saturday of November each year. Plans are now being made for the next social on November 6, 2010. If you know of any alumni who were dropped from our mailing list due to relocation, please forward those names and addresses to [email protected] or phone 919-787-3011, ext. 1010.

Annual Young Alumni Dinner S TS Young Alumni (current high school students) were treated to dinner in the dining hall following the Titan Homecoming basketball game in February. The spaghetti supper was capped off with cupcakes, an homage to the monthly Cupcake Days enjoyed by students during their years at St. Timothy’s. Seven members of the Class of 2006, the first eighth grade graduating class at STS, freed their busy high school calendars to meet, eat and discuss upcoming college plans. [Editor’s Note: To find out where our first middle school graduates are pursuing their college careers, check out the next issue of the St. Timothy’s Spirit.] Darby-Tuttle Wedding K atie-Rose Tuttle and Max Darby were married in an Episcopal wedding service on the beach at Bald Head Island on October 3, 2009. Although both graduated from Hale High School -- he in 2000 and she in 2001 -- they hardly knew one another at the time. “We reconnected in 2006 around Thanksgiving,” Katie-Rose explained. “Max was acting out in LA and I was in the Raleigh area.” He visited a couple of times, love blossomed and Max moved back to Raleigh in April of 2007. Fellow Hale High School alumnus Evans Kistler (‘00) served as best man; Amanda Barbee (HHS ‘01) was a bridesmaid. Katie-Rose is now the Program Director at a non-profit called Leadership North Carolina. Max works at a start-up telecommunications firm in Raleigh.

There was absolutely nothing at all for these children to do in this overwhelmed tent city.” Based in Graham, NC, the faith-based non-profit organization operates throughout Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean by means of national partners – natives who help equip local leaders for ministry, build churches, initiate self-support projects and develop children’s programs. A crash course in Creole gave Campbell a very rudimentary vocabulary, but words were not always necessary. In addition to entertaining the children with songs, skits and games, the group helped with food distribution and went on several unforgettable field trips reinforcing their knowledge that Haiti’s desperation far preceded the January natural disaster. They visited a residential home for HIVinfected children as well as Grace Children’s Hospital, Haiti’s leading medical facility for the treatment of children with tuberculosis. Here they encountered a 12-pound two-year-old, brought in from the countryside on the brink of death the previous afternoon. At the rural North Carolina corporate headquarters, Campbell shared the terror of not knowing who among NDI’s partners in Haiti had survived the earthquake. With a steady stream of photos from a ravaged Port-au-Price, he felt an overwhelming urge to help. “Intermediate accounting just didn’t seem as important as these suffering people,” said the Elon University Colin Campbell surrounded by children who lost their homes in Haiti’s finance major. devastating earthquake last January. When spring break arrived in March, Campbell joined an 11-person team of Alamance County Young Life leaders and NDI staff on a five-day mission to Haiti. “Our primary purpose was to entertain about 400 children each day, ranging in age from toddlers to teens,” he said. “We were in a When a four-year-old reached up for a hug, Campbell hoisted him onto his shoulders. “He started shrieking and I was afraid I had hurt him when I lifted him,” he said, “but he was screaming for joy simply because someone was paying attention to him. When I tried to put him down, he tightened his grip on my shoulders!” “He was too weak to smile,” Campbell said, “but we could see a glimmer of recognition in his eyes as we held him.” The group also visited Cité Soleil, one of the world’s largest and most dangerous slums with no sewer system, no electricity, and no police force. “We had driver/bodyguards,” Campbell said, “but even then, it was only safe to visit the periphery of the slum.” His time in Haiti was short, but the memories will last a long time. He would love to return, and just might have the opportunity. Upon graduation from Elon in May, Campbell took a position with NDI. n St. Timothy’s Joins Haiti Relief Effort W hen a devastating earthquake rocked Haiti on January 12, the first question at St. Timothy’s was not, “Can we help?” It was, “How can we help? The STS character trait for January was responsibility and, with a communal feeling of responsibility to aid the impoverished Caribbean nation, students, parents and faculty swung into action. In plastic milk jugs and other makeshift containers, homerooms collected nickels, dimes, quarters and bills. By the one-month anniversary of the earthquake, donations exceeded $2,000. Friends of St. Timothy’s added its monthly profits from the Titan Bucks program, an ongoing fundraiser whereby families order gift cards at face value, the school receives a discount for placing a bulk order and the difference is realized in profit for STS. Classroom donations and fundraiser proceeds were combined and donated to Hope for Haiti, a non-profit organization supporting the country, with a special emphasis on educating its children, for almost 20 years. Middle school students added to the effort by hosting a talent show in the gymnasium featuring vocalists, musicians, dancers – even a bit of magic. Faculty emcee Matt Scheer entertained the capacity crowd between acts st. timothy’s schooL STS_Spring2010.indd 10 10 s p i r i T SPRI N G with some impromptu dance moves, but the crème de la crème of the evening was a pie in the face for the cause! Five middle school teachers offered their faces as targets, with students buying tickets for a random drawing and the opportunity to hurl a whipped cream pie. The Middle School Talent Show raised an additional $1,500, donated to the American Red Cross for Haitian relief. 2010 7/12/2010 6:10:50 PM Second Graders Send Care Packages to Iraq, Enjoy Visit From Army Medic Home on Leave STS second graders joined forces with the North Raleigh Civitan Club again this year to pack military care boxes for soldiers in Iraq. Last year’s effort won the local club a first place award for ongoing contribution to the military from the NC Civitan District East. “I believe a lot of the reason we won first place was because we involved the school children,” said JoAnn Harper, president of the North Raleigh club. “With the help of the children from St. Timothy’s, we were able to send more supplies and add that special note from a child which is truly appreciated by our soldiers.” In addition to personal notes to the soldiers, students brought in hand sanitizer, hot chocolate and lemonade mixes, pens and pencils, crackers, beef jerky, hard candies, chewing gum and personal car items. An anonymous local dentist contributed AT&T gift cards. A number of soldiers responded with thank you notes to the students. Although the second graders never met their care package recipients, they enjoyed an informative visit from a soldier recently returned from the Middle East. Cpl.

Then he answered questions from the inquisitive young audience. “How far away is Iraq?” another asked. “Six thousand miles,” he replied. “Did you ever get hot in Iraq?” one student asked. “Every day!” Haunsperger responded, explaining that temperatures routinely reached 110º in the shade and 135º in the sun. It gets cold at night in the winter, he added, because the desert can’t hold heat and temperatures often drop into the 40s.

A few pages of hits, that is. A 2009 graduate of St. Timothy’s, where she began her cross country career, Frazier started turning heads in September of her freshman year at Ravenscroft when she shattered the state girls’ record in winning the Seahawk Invitational at UNC-Wilmington. She caught the eye of editors at ESPN RISE magazine and was named a Regional Athlete of the Week, cited for “a pair of sub18:00 5K performances in the first two meets of her career.” The second, the article noted, was a 17:36 at a tri-meet where she beat everyone (including boys) by more than two-and-a-half minutes. By mid-year, Frazier was named the 2009-2010 Gatorade North Carolina Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year. She racked up an impressive array of accolades, including the nation’s sixth fastest 5,000-meter time (17 minutes, 5.09 seconds) and a tenth place finish in the distinguished Foot Locker Nationals in San Diego. Not bad for a 14-year-old who Fine and Performing Arts, continued from page 1 stands five feet tall and weighs about 80 pounds! After her impressive debut in cross country, Frazier was equally daunting during track season. At the Phoenix High School Classic at Elon University last March, she shattered meet records in the 1600m and 3200m races. A week later, she ran the third fastest two-mile time in state history (10:37:37) at the Raleigh Relays. So how does one attempt to improve upon a season like Frazier’s freshman year? “I’ll just continue to train and work,” she said, “and hopefully, as I get older and stronger, the improvements will come.” Training and working, it appears, will occupy most of Frazier’s summer. After the Outdoor Nationals in June, she will focus her efforts on preparing for cross country in the fall. Karyn Macdonald leads her daughter, Neve, around the roller rink at last fall’s Roll Out for the Arts. (of the Seven Dwarfs) and the Wicked Witch (from the Wizard of Oz) were in an anger management group,” Sizemore added. Thirty theatre students in the sixth, seventh and eighth grades performed. Parental support for the fine arts and performing arts is abundant at STS. More than 20 parents assisted with the recent theatre production through set building, ticket sales, make-up and other roles. Three dozen parents volunteered over two days before Open House to set up for the massive visual art show. Several years ago, Friends of St. Timothy’s established a Fine Arts Committee to help with ongoing needs. And last fall, a “Roll Out for the Arts” roller skating party was held to raise additional funds for the fine arts and performing arts programs. “At a time when fine arts in the public sector are facing a tsumani of budget cuts,” Bierer said, “the support of our parents and administration is phenomenal.” n Modest and ever gracious, Frazier has kind words for her alma mater. “I enjoyed all aspects of my experience at St. Timothy’s,” she said. “It prepared me well for high school at Ravenscroft.” n Top Awards for Eighth Graders Wesley Frazier clocked in with an impressive 10th place finish at the prestigious Foot Locker Nationals last winter. st. timothy’s schooL STS_Spring2010.indd 12 Headmaster Mike Bailey is flanked by Jennifer Koenig (left) and Grace Todd (right). Todd was awarded the Headmaster’s Cup, an honor bestowed upon the eighth grader nominated by the faculty who best exhibits the outstanding qualities of a St. Timothy’s student. Koenig received the Faculty Cup, another distinguished honor given to an eighth grader who exhibits outstanding qualities. 12 s p i r i T SPRI N G 2010 7/12/2010 6:11:30 PM Blue Dominates at Blue and White Days B lue and White Days, an STS tradition that dates back as far as anyone on campus can remember, is a spirited competition among students in grades 1-8 randomly assigned to either Team Blue or Team White. In recent years, Team White dominated the three-day event in activities including the scooter race, Frogs in the Pond, basketball shoot and Koosh in the Can. It was no secret that Team Blue was aiming to change that trend, and that’s exactly what happened when the results were tallied in May.

Right: An exhausted but happy Taylor Newell relaxes after her event. Perfect Score for Whitley Lee Whitley achieved a perfect score on the 2010 Introduction to Latin National Latin Exam last spring. Only 795 students out of over 18,800 who participated in the U.S., Australia, Canada, Mexico, England, Italy, New Zealand, Poland, Bulgaria, China, Guam, Japan, Korea, Singapore and Zimbabwe attained this distinction. Gaudeamus igitur, Lee! Derby Day When the date for Founders’ Day 2010 was announced last fall, co-chairs Benji Jones and Kate Duncan had no trouble picking a theme. Coinciding with the running of the 136th Kentucky Derby on May 1, the event was quickly dubbed “Derby Day.” As is the custom at Churchill Downs, ladies donned their most stylish hats for the occasion. But unlike the event in Kentucky, the race was not the focus but merely the prelude to a fabulous evening of fun, fellowship and fundraising. A silent auction, raffle and live auction dominated the evening’s activities. In the end, $41,645 was raised to finance a covered walkway on campus. Top: Adam Schneider was high bidder on a class project entered in the live auction, a birdhouse featuring thumbprint birds of each first grade student and teacher.
