Transcript of Sabot at Stony Point 2012-13 Annual Report
CHANGE
2012–13annualreport
This year’s annual report is about the years to come.
Sabot at Stony Point has always been a small school with big ideas and audacious goals. And now more than ever, these ideas and goals are growing. The current generation of Sabot teachers, parents, and leaders has worked tirelessly and accomplished much. In the past six years, we’ve witnessed the creation of Sabot at Stony Point, the preschool’s move to this permanent home, the development of our curriculum and faculty, accreditation by the Virginia Association of Independent Schools (VAIS), construction of Founders Hall, and the launch of what will be an ongoing program of outreach and dissemination. This year, our enrollment at Sabot is at a record high. So, too, is the enthusiasm of our teachers and our community. Our work now turns to securing and growing the school for our current students and for the next generation of Sabot children and families. But this will be possible only if we receive both continued and new support from generous donors. With proper funding, we can construct a new classroom building that is already designed. After we move the
education program into permanent spaces, we will have the opportunity to restore the main house — the historic Larus mansion — and the Gillette Garden — one of the most significant walled gardens in Virginia — to their past state of grandeur. Additional scholarship funds for our ongoing financial aid program will help us grow our enrollment and keep our school economically accessible. Improved fields and playgrounds will enrich the extensive experience that our students enjoy outdoors. Additional technological equipment and expertise are critical to our ability to docu-ment and communicate about teaching and learning at Sabot as well as to provide our students with additional tools for their research and representations. Everyone receiving this report has played a part in our story. I ask you to stay tuned and stay involved, as our story continues. With your help, a new generation of children can find the world of ideas waiting for them at Sabot at Stony Point.

I am delighted to write to you on behalf of the Sabot at Stony Point Board of Directors and present the annual report. A great deal happened in the 2012–2013 academic year, and we are looking forward to an incredible 2013–2014.
This past year saw the beginning of the implementation of our three-year strategic plan, Our True North. This plan is based on our mission and values as a school community and focuses on three key areas: people, program, and place.
Each of these areas is at the center of who we are: • Ourpeople are our core strength. • Ourprogram has become a national model in how to deepen the inquisitiveness and knowledge of children. • Ourplace provides the context where our children experience the joy of learning and the understanding of society.
The goals outlined in the strategic plan are thoughtful but ambitious. During the first year, the Board of Directors assisted the staff, faculty, and administration in implementation. One important area of support is in fundraising and development. This past academic year we surpassed our Annual Fund goal, more than doubling total dollars donated in 2011–12. We must continue this momentum in giving if we are to realize the full potential of the plan.
Yes, we have had huge successes, but every organization has growing pains. Through a branding and marketing study completed recently, we recognized the need to better communicate who we are and what we do. Over the course of the next academic year, we will be working with staff, faculty, and administration to determine how best to communicate our mission and vision to our various constituencies.
We truly believe that Sabot at Stony Point is leading the way in creating an educational experience that is on the cutting edge. Since we are a process-driven school, our faculty and curriculum are at the heart of our community. To be the best at this requires maintenance and establishment of first-rate facilities, along with technology, professional development, and staff support. In the coming year, you will begin to see small changes across the campus that will enhance the Sabot experience.
Because we all believe in the possibilities Sabot creates in the lives of our children, our families, and our community, the past academic year was a great success. We have all chosen to be part of this school because we believe that a child’s education should be filled with joy, discovery, and understanding. We look forward to continued success as we implement our vision.
“
“you will ...see small changes across campus that will enhance the Sabot experience.”

hile many people in our country are saying that our education system must change, Sabot at Stony Point is doing something about it.
This year, we truly solidified our standing as a leading force in the Education Revolution. Tom Shields, the president of our Board of Directors and director of UR’s Center for Leadership in Education, traveled to Finland with Virginia educators and policy makers interested in the “Finland Phenomenon” and how Finland has overhauled its education system. Tom shared his experience and hopes for reform in his Style Weekly article “When Tests Fail: Why Our Public Education System Needs To Rethink High-Stakes Standardized Testing.” The following is an excerpt from this piece. “One of the most innovative schools in the region is Sabot at Stony Point … a program that allows students to exert considerable influence on the choice of questions and ideas that they study. “The program combines questioning and critical thinking, with extensive use of docu-mentation to make learning visible. Visitors to Sabot school often are amazed at the creativity, spontaneity and critical thinking in classrooms and art studios, the forests surrounding the campus, and on field trips. Through something called investigative research, children at Sabot experience the joys of asking questions, learning to fail, and pursuing and committing to an interesting topic or design process.” Studio teacher Anna Golden was interviewed by Orla Kelly of Practice.ie, the website of the first professional network in Ireland for artists working with children and young people. The site was developed by Kids’ Own Publishing Partnership in 2008.
WE’RE ON THE FRONT LINES OF THE EDUCATION REVOLUTION. And the world is hearing about it.

WIn an appropriate kickoff to the Peg Spangenthal Memorial Lecture series, author Paul Tough spoke on his best-selling book at Sabot on June 13.
Mary Driebe, Dr. Irene Carney, and Andrea Pieriotti presented Redefining the Teachable Moment — Learning with Children About Critical Thinking, Creativity, and Constructing Understanding at the 16th Annual SURN Leadership Academy at the College of William & Mary. Published in 2013, Nature Education with Young Children: Integrating Inquiry and Practice featured a forward by Lella Gandini and chapters from Marty Gravett and Anna Golden. Anna wrote “Preschool Children Explore the Forest: The Power of Wild Spaces in Childhood” and Marty wrote “Putting the Forest on the Map — Using Documentation to Further Natural Inquiry.” Dr. Irene Carney presented at The Woman’s Club of Richmond, where speakers throughout the years have included Robert Frost, Amelia Earhart, John F. Kennedy, George H. W. Bush, Tom Wolfe, and Frank Lloyd Wright, to name just a few. Sharing observations from her decades as an educator, and channeling the thinking of others whose voices have figured prominently in the national conversation about education, Dr. Carney addressed both that the American systems of education, public and private, must evolve, and that the goal of high standards has morphed into high-stakes testing, crippling our schools. She discussed some of what each of us can do — in the face of what sometimes feels like a monolithic challenge — to support and make way for changes that are, many argue, critical to our future success as a nation. We also introduced the Peg Spangenthal Memorial Lecture series this year, designed as a tribute to Peg Spangenthal (1927–2011), Sabot School’s founding director. Peg was an outstanding early childhood educator, with a long career distinguished by wise leadership and advocacy for children and their parents. Through this series, we aim to highlight voices and views like Peg’s and keep them at the forefront of our work. Best-selling author Paul Tough was the inaugural speaker of the series, discussing his book How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character. The audience for the evening included civic and corporate leaders and members of public and private agencies — particularly those serving children and families who face the challenges of living in poverty. We were pleased to host school board representatives of Henrico and Richmond,
City Council representatives, independent school heads, senators, delegates, Foundation directors, child welfare advocates, nonprofit directors, and educators from the Richmond region. In July, 31 Richmond- and Charlottesville-area students played the World Peace Game under John Hunter’s masterful facilitation. If you have seen the documentary about John and the game — World Peace and Other Fourth Grade Achievements — you can imagine the energy and intensity generated by 4th through 8th graders striving to solve the real and complex problems that threaten world peace. The camp was paired with a Master Class including 12 teachers from Sabot; other area and regional VAIS and public schools; and public and private schools in Minnesota, Tennessee, Colorado, Pennsylvania, and Vermont. A student in the documentary is quoted as saying, “Mr. Hunter’s class makes my brain explode!” We dare say all the teachers and students assembled for that week in Founders Hall would agree.
John Hunter helped children focus on major global issues during July’s World Peace Game camp.

WE’RE EDUCATING THE WORLD ON A SUCCESSFUL MODEL FOR TEACHING.
he year was 1995. Sabot became the first Richmond-area preschool, and among the first in the country, to adopt the Reggio Emilia Approach (REA), a model in which children
and teachers together explore the questions and ideas through which young children build their budding understanding of the world. Fast forward to the fall of 2005, when a group of Sabot preschool parents, working with the school’s administration and board, began to envision an elementary education that would build on some of the Reggio-inspired practices of the preschool, and thereby sustain their children’s curiosity, engagement, initiative, critical thinking, and capacity for collective, creative problem solving. Sabot School’s kindergarten program began in the fall of 2006 and served as the foundation on which the curriculum and pedagogy of Sabot at Stony Point have been developed over the last several years. In spring of 2011, Sabot’s work was featured at a conference in Calgary, Alberta — the first meeting of its kind for educators working with or contemplating the Reggio Emilia Approach with elementary school-aged children. In April 2013, we launched our first Sabot Institute — Personal Pathways and Paradigms — to further disseminate this model and the
T lessons we have learned about its implementation. The Institute was offered in partnership with University of Richmond’s Center for Leadership in Education and it attracted more than 130 educators from Canada (our colleagues from Toronto) and all parts of the United States. We hosted early childhood educators, independent school teachers, administrators, and public school personnel. Over the course of three days, participants toured our campus and classrooms; heard from Sabot faculty about their own paradigm shifts and pathways; and learned from featured speakers Lella Gandini of Reggio Children and David Kelly from the Blue School in New York City. Institute attendees joined for one evening with Richmond-area educators to discuss the larger issues of the Education Revolution — a conversation that we hope to keep alive through an array of presentations and forums each year. The response to the Institute was overwhelming. After eight years of developing and refining our own educational program, we were given the gift of seeing our work through the eyes of colleagues, drawn to Sabot by shared beliefs about and interests in children, teaching, and learning. It was, and continues to be, tremendously rewarding to connect with a larger network of engaged, committed, and talented educators, pursuing a common, transformative vision of what childhood and education can hold. This first Institute will serve as the threshold to an ongoing outreach effort as we continue to extend the impact of our work beyond our campus gates.
David Kelly and Lella Gandini reflect on their Institute experience.

AWARDS MADE IT AN EVEN MORE REWARDING YEAR.
n the spring of 2013, we celebrated several student victories at the Virginia Junior Academy of Science Annual Symposium. Nine
of our 7th and 8th grade students were selected to present at the symposium, and three of the nine were awarded prizes. The VJAS process is a nearly yearlong effort by our 7th and 8th grade students. Working with our science specialist Dan Daglish, students identify a “problem to be studied” and design a research project. Complying with the designated regulations, the students conduct the research and record their findings, including all collected data, observations, and experimental notes. Once the research project is complete, students write a comprehensive paper describing each aspect of their project from hypothesis to conclusion. Papers are then submitted to a Sabot faculty panel for review and may be selected to submit to the VJAS. Once submitted to VJAS, judges read the papers, score them, and choose the winners. Winners of the written papers are invited to present their papers at the annual research symposium.

Here, learning is also for educators.If we’re going to keep bringing our children new ways of thinking, we must go beyond our four walls to stay at the forefront of advances in education. To that end, we are extremely supportive of professional development opportunities for all faculty and staff.

JAS VICTORIES
( 10 )
he 2012–2013 school year was unprecedented in the richness and variety of our initiatives and relationships. We welcomed more than 300 visitors to Sabot at Stony Point. Through our series on the Education Revolution,
visitors participated in tours, a film screening, a presenta-tion, or a forum. Throughout the year, hundreds of additional citizens, educators, civic leaders, and policy makers came to our campus to engage in conversation about teaching, learning, and the future of the enterprise of education. Founders Hall has enabled us to assemble our entire school community for defining rituals and traditions including our annual Winter Circle, our observance of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, Grandparents’ Day, the 8th Grade Play, and Graduation. It has given us a place to join together as a school, as a community, and as a collective force to further the positive evolution of education.
Pat’s support for our school took so many forms. As a director of the Jackson Foundation, she participated in the Foundation’s decision to grant Sabot at Stony Point our first and most significant capital gift for the construction of Founders Hall and for seeding a Scholarship Fund to which Pat also made a generous, personal contribution. These acts were critical to setting us on a path of growth and stability. But Pat’s unwavering belief in the value of our educational approach was her greatest gift to us. Well beyond the years during which her beloved grandsons were enrolled at Sabot, Pat loved coming to campus for lunches and meetings. She would start to smile the moment she crossed the threshold and commented without fail, “This is just tremendous, Irene. It really is.” Sabot is but one of many, many Richmond-area nonprofits on which Pat had a tremendous impact as a donor, mentor, volunteer, leader, and ambassador of good will. The generosity of Pat and her family has made a permanent, positive impact on our region, particularly in the areas of education, poverty, and social justice. We will miss seeing her bright blue Cruiser coming up the drive and her bright red hat coming through the door. The brightness of her memory, and her lasting gifts to us, however, will never be diminished.
On September 29, 2012, we dedicated Founders Hall to the vision and pioneering work of the founders of Stony Point School, Sabot School, and Sabot at Stony Point.
Educational innovationnow has its place.
In memory of Pat Asch.(1924–2013)Pat Asch was a woman of action. Her career path was one based on a passion to improve the lives of others. We are fortunate that our school was one of her passions.

Founders Hall honors those forward-thinking men and women who, for over four decades, have believed in the power of children’s thinking and who desire a better educational foundation for children. Founders Hall is part of the school’s master plan to enhance facilities and resources. In September of 2012, we celebrated all founders and benefactors to date and dedicated Founders Hall to their legacy. The gifts below were made in honor of this significant event.

Founders Hall Memorial & Honor Gifts
Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is a yearly fundraising appeal to bridge the gap between the total cost of running the school and tuition revenue. Tuition alone does not cover the entire cost associated with a private education at Sabot at Stony Point or any other independent school, much less initiatives and priorities beyond the base operating budget. We rely on gifts to sustain our commitment to providing each student with the highest-quality education possible and extend our greatest appreciation to all donors to the Annual Fund.

SABOT AT STONY POINT 3400 Stony Point RoadRichmond, VA 23235
At Sabot at Stony Point, our very existence is dedicated to the intellectual growth of children. To accomplish this, we, too, have grown by leaps and bounds.
A STORY OF GROWTH
In our six years at Sabot, we have passed a
number of significant milestones. We now have
an integrated campus. We’ve received a
prestigious accreditation. We have completed
our first phase of building, and we continue to
expand our community.
In the midst of all this change, our culture
and educational approach have remained
constant. Our guiding principles are our true
north, and each change we make will be based
on keeping these principles intact.
Our goals of strengthening our financial
flexibility and independence will allow us to
attract and keep top talent; enrich extracurricular
programs; expand and refine curriculum; support
students’ academic, social, and emotional growth;
provide a foundation for the second phase of
building; fund financial aid; and so much more.
In turn, the possibilities for every child who
comes here will keep growing, too.
