The Admissions Office
At The Norman Howard School we are privileged to have highly
professional, dedicated staff. For many of our families the first point
of contact is Julie Murray, Coordinator of Admissions and Special
Events. Julie exemplifies a professional who is both competent and
caring. Whether it is that first phone call of inquiry, an admission
interview, or the student visit, Julie’s guidance allays the anxiety that
often accompanies this process. She is welcoming and is there for
incoming families at each step of the way. She attends to every detail
and makes herself available whenever potential parents and/or
students have questions, concerns, or need more information.
Julie’s work with incoming families and students is so effective and
meaningful, that often she remains their “point person” well after the
admission process is completed!

In addition to her admission responsibilities, Julie’s other important
role at The Norman Howard School is the planning and coordination
of special events. Julie is the guiding force behind Celebration of
Success, Graduation, and fund raising events. She is often behind
the scenes seamlessly taking care of details once again!
Julie is integral to The Norman Howard School community. It is a pleasure to work with such a consummate professional who also has a warm personality
and sense of humor. Thank you, Julie, for all that you contribute to life at NHS!
CEO’s Corner
Student Learning is First
After the 2010-11 NHS Graduation Ceremony one of the family members of a graduate called me to say that she
had seen more than 30 high school graduation ceremonies during her career as an educator and parent and that
our graduation was the best she had ever seen. She said, “I have never been to a graduation ceremony where the
focus remained on the students until now. Not once did the ceremony become about the institution, there weren’t
long speeches by adults, instead, your graduation did what every graduation should do, it celebrated each individual
graduate, their hard work, their success!”
Joseph M. Martino

NHS Volunteers Honored
Two important volunteers were honored at Celebration of Success this past
May. Assemblyman Joseph D. Morelle was awarded the 2011 Betsy McIsaac
Award and Mark J. Rosica received the 2011 New Horizons Award. Thank
you Assemblyman Morelle and Mark for all you have done to support NHS
over the years!
That phone call was just one of many reminders that The Norman Howard School is unique and special. As I reflected
on why this is true I started looking at a history that Trustee Judy Malone, a strong advocate and longtime supporter
of NHS, compiled of the school as it grew from a powerful idea among dedicated founders to its full realization.
The history includes highlights of the challenges of starting a new school and is a great record of our important
milestones. Our history shows us that we have had significant support and commitment from many supportive
individuals, local educators, parents, families, our teachers and staff and other institutions. From the very beginning
there has been a strong interest in partnership and in ensuring our educational program is solidly founded on what
works in helping students learn; there has been a real commitment to celebrate learning, to create a learning
environment that is fun, interesting and engaging. Indeed, from the beginning the focus has been to put student
learning first.
There are many important words that describe what is special and unique about the school and its culture. Some
of these include the commitment to individualized learning, best practices, a holistic, whole child approach and the
list could go on. But in the end when you walk in to a classroom there isn’t a “best practice” hovering above the
students and teacher–it is people who make the difference. At The Norman Howard School the combination of a
strong tradition, students, committed faculty, staff, leadership and a broad community of support are a big part
of why NHS is so special, so unique and quite frankly, an excellent place for students who struggle to learn.

Alumni News
Jeff Parker
Abe Saffer, Class of ‘98, attended The Norman Howard School from 8th–12th
grade. After graduating from NHS he pursued his post-secondary education at Arizona State
University. Upon receiving his degree in Political Science, Abe moved to Washington D.C.
to work in the political and legislative field. During that time, he served as a Grassroots
Manager and Lobbyist for a national health care company, a Legislative Aide for a Member of
Congress and he worked on multiple campaigns. Currently, he is the Campaign Manager for
a city council race and a Community Organizer and New Media Coordinator for Montgomery
County, MD for President Obama’s re-election campaign. Abe is also pursuing his Masters in
Political Management from George Washington University. He lives just
outside of D.C. with his wife, Tonya.
Vanessa Gell, After graduating from Norman Howard in 2004, Vanessa Gell spent
the next 4 years at Lynn University in Boca Raton, FL. She received her Bachelor's degree
in Hospitality Management in 2008 and spent a little over 2 years as a Front Office Agent
at the Boca Raton Resort and Club, a Waldorf Astoria Resort. She moved back to Rochester
about a year ago and is working for Karpus Investment Management in the office support
area. “Some of my favorite NHS teachers were Mr. Koffenberger, Mrs. Pudetti, Mrs.
McConville and Ms. Shearer. They all showed a genuine interest in me, encouraged
me and believed in me. I felt they went way beyond what was required of a teacher
and mentored me in many ways. The extra time and patience they showed me
changed my life for the better then and even now,” Vanessa said.
This past summer, Jeff Parker, NHS High School Writing & ELA teacher, took part in the Genesee Valley Writing Project
Invitational Summer Institute (Rochester’s chapter of the National Writing Project). He was one of eight local teachers
chosen to participate in this intensive four-week program designed to equip teachers with innovative strategies to
help students improve their writing skills. “I feel very fortunate to have had such a great opportunity to re-energize
my teaching and then use what I learned with my students this school year,” Jeff said. In November, Jeff attended
the National Council of Teachers of English conference in Chicago where he was asked to present to fellow educators.
His presentation focused on using the language and techniques of advertising with students in the classroom.
Jeff said, “I am very proud to represent NHS and share what we do with educators around the country.”
Nick’s Eagle Project
NHS freshman, Nick Pizzarello, wanted his Eagle Scout Project to impact The Norman
Howard School where he has been a student since the 5th grade. “NHS has done so much
for me in regards to my reading and learning and I wanted to give back. I also thought the
school grounds could use some help so campus cleanup and landscaping at NHS became
the focus of my project,” Nick said. Over two Saturdays, with approximately 50 volunteers,
Nick’s crew weeded, raked, trimmed bushes, planted an apple tree, installed new parking
lot timbers and laid mulch. The materials, equipment and food were donated by a number
of local businesses. His efforts paid off because the school grounds look great! Thank
you, Nick, for all of your hard work and good luck with the rest of the Eagle Scout process.
We look forward to hearing about your continued success!

2nd Annual NHS Reaching
for the Starz Golf Tournament
NHS Café–Open for Business!
This Fall, a new program was launched that offers students an opportunity to
learn real world job skills. The NHS Café, which opened in October, sells subs
to students and staff during lunch on Wednesdays. Interested students filled
out a job application, interviewed for a variety of positions and were hired
based on their interview and qualifications. Cheryl Granville, NHS Counselor,
said, “Student employees will be responsible for all aspects of running the cafe;
including taking orders, selling, advertising, accounting, etc. just as they would
be in a part-time job in the community. We believe this opportunity will allow
students to further develop their interpersonal and organizational skills, skills
that are so important to academic and vocational success.”
A special thank you to all of our donors, golfers and volunteers who helped
make the golf tournament a huge success! Over $25,000 was raised for NHS
experiential learning programs. Visit http://reachingforthestarz.wordpress.com
to view tournament photos. Congratulations to Cynthia Woolbright who won the
JetBlue Airways tickets!

Conservation Days
Service Learning enters its 6th year at NHS
4th, 5th & 6th grade students participated in Conservation
Days at Ellison Park. Students learned about conserving
our natural resources and how to make bird feeders and
art out of items found in nature.
NHS Service Learning is a year-long program that partners with a 1st grade
class at School #7. Coordinated by NHS Teachers, Marie Lindley and Chuck
Koffenberger, seniors must apply to the program in September and discuss
why they feel they would be a good role model for a 1st grade student.
Seniors visit their “buddies” throughout the school year and work on reading
skills and arts & crafts. In addition, NHS Art Teacher, Paul Wagner, partners
with Service Learning to complete a long term art project with the students.
The project is designed to be a keepsake for the 1st graders symbolizing
their year of fun and work together. This year the 1st graders will design and
make banjos with their buddies. After each school visit, seniors meet and
discuss how the visit went and submit a written reflection. One huge benefit
that teachers at NHS and School #7 see as a result of this program is a boost
in attendance—students don’t ever seem to be absent on the day a Service
Learning visit is scheduled!

Science on Seneca
In October, Living Environment and Chemistry classes headed out on
Seneca Lake for an environmental study. “Science on Seneca gives students
an opportunity to conduct some real aquatic research,” says NHS Science
Teacher, Sally Shearer. Students collect plankton and water samples,
meteorological conditions are recorded and sediment samples are gathered.
All of the data collected by our students is recorded in the Hobart and William
Smith Colleges database as part of their long term monitoring of Seneca Lake.
A very special gift

The Norman Howard School fosters the academic growth of students
with learning disabilities while promoting their development as respectful,
responsible, resilient citizens.The school advances the understanding
of learning disabilities and serves as a resource for the community.
The Norman Howard School received a very
special gift from our 6th grade student
Dayvionn.
To Whom It May Concern:
From my church, we received two dollars
to give to someone to benefit from this and
I decided to give this money to my school.
I know that it is not a lot of money but I love
my school and I wanted to give it to you.
From,

Board Member Highlight
Dr. Raffaella Borasi, dean of the Warner School at the University of Rochester,
and a Norman Howard School Board Member, is having a tremendous impact
on preparing future teachers for the classroom. Dr. Borasi was instrumental
in the U of R being awarded the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship, a highly
competitive program designed to interest math and science majors, and
professionals in science and technology, to become secondary teachers in
districts where they are needed most. The scholarship program, a division
of the National Science Foundation, dispenses scholarships to universities
identified as having exemplary undergraduate programs in science, technology
and mathematics, in addition to stellar teacher preparation programs. Borasi,
who joined the U of R faculty in 1985, has promoted and improved the
inquiry-based, student-centered approach to teaching mathematics ever
since. We are proud of her hard work ensuring future generations of teachers
are well-equipped for the classroom and we are glad she’s a member of the
NHS Board of Trustees!

A tribute to Sam Goodwin
Sam retired from East High School after 30 years of teaching
and one would think after that amount of time in any profession
you would want to relax and enjoy your retirement years. However,
lucky for us Sam wasn’t done sharing his love of science! He
joined the NHS Science department in 1989 where he taught
Physics & Chemistry part-time for another 20 years! “It was really
fun to teach with Sam. He was always so upbeat and knowledgeable
and fearless with his Chemistry experiments! He was an amazing
man,” says Sally Shearer, NHS Science teacher.
In June 2011, the NHS High School Science Lab was dedicated
to Sam as a token of appreciation for his 20 years of exemplary
service to the NHS community. He was also nominated by the
East High School Class of 1960 to receive a News 8 Golden
Apple Award which he received shortly before he passed away.
Sam will not only be remembered for his love of science and
teaching, but also for his love of music, his joyful personality
and the impact he had on others.
