Fall 2009Annual Report

VISIONS

You can make a differ-

Coe-Brown Northwood Academy is embarking on an exciting new pilot project to provide laptops to next year’s incoming freshman (the Class of 2014). The students will use the laptops throughout all four years of high school. Please help us (and these young people) with a contribution to the 2009/2010 CBNA Annual Campaign. Our goal is to contrib-ute $25,000 toward the laptop pilot program. Your gift is tax deductible and supports Coe-Brown Northwood Academy’s ongoing commitment to the education of its students.

Through your generosity, last year’s campaign raised more than $30,000. A portion of that money will be used to buy interactive white boards for the Academy’s classrooms. Your donations to the Annual Campaign also help support the grant program that is made available to CBNA faculty and staff each year. The grants cover the areas of Academics, Administration, Arts, Athletics and Vocational Education.

NOTE: We are no longer offering on-line giving via the CBNA web site. Only a few alumni took advantage of this option and the fees associated with this program were extremely high, making it cost prohibitive. We are still able to accept credit card payments (MasterCard or Visa) on the pledge envelopes; one is enclosed in this issue for your use.

The Annual Campaign closes June 30, 2010. Please make checks payable to CBNA Development and send to 905 First New Hampshire Turnpike, Northwood NH 03261. Thank you, alumni and friends of the Academy!

Annual Campaign 2009-2010We need your help!

Thank you for your support.

A letter from Headmaster SmithDear friends,

Academic year 2009/2010 is off to a strong start. This year we welcomed 182 freshmen on August 14 and the entire student body consists of 714 students from the towns of Northwood, Strafford, Barrington, Nottingham, Deerfield, Concord, Laconia, Manchester, Epsom, Dunbarton and Rochester.

I am proud to announce that Coe-Brown’s science scores in the statewide 2009 NECAP assessment tests earned us a tie (with Bedford High School) for the second highest in the state. Our 11th graders (this year’s seniors) earned a mean score of 1138, just behind Hanover High at 1141. Congratulations to our students, the science department faculty and the entire school as a whole.

We welcomed several new faculty members this year. William Clarke will be teaching algebra and general math, and will also be working with our basketball program. He is a recent graduate

of Keene State College. Ernesto Leonardo Gonzalez will be teaching Spanish I, II and III. Mr. Gonzalez has studied at the University of Massachusetts at Boston, Tufts University and Emerson College. Kathleen Hill has studied at the University of Lowell, the University of New Hampshire, Universidad de Valladoid (Spain) and Universidad de Costa Rica. She will be teaching Spanish I, II, and III and will also serve as the World Language Curriculum Coordinator.

April Pagnani will be teaching classes in the English department at Coe-Brown. She is a recent graduate of the University of New Hampshire with a MAT in teaching, and completed her undergraduate degree at UNH. Dorothy Rhodes joins the Coe-Brown faculty to teach World Cultures in our Social Studies department. She is a recent graduate of the University of New Hampshire with a MAT in teaching, and completed her undergraduate degree at UNH, as well.

We are also pleased to welcome a new member of our Board of Trustees. Tim Joslin of Barrington is employed by Banks Chevrolet in Concord; his daughter is a senior at Coe-Brown this year. Our trustees are a dedicated group of volunteers who devote a significant amount of their time to overseeing the operation of the Academy. Mr. Joslin will be a great addition to this team.

Construction is progressing on the expansion of the Academy’s automotive shop, with completion scheduled for the end of Semester I. In addition to gaining much needed space, the program will benefit from updated equipment and supplies.

I hope you’ll enjoy this issue’s coverage of our amazing girls’ softball team as well as the patriotic efforts of our students during World War II. As always, thank you for your continued support of Coe-Brown Northwood Academy.

Sincerely,

David S. Smith

Rebecca M. Paine, a member of the Class of 2009, was recently presented with CBNA’s highest agricultural honor, the DEKALB Agricultural Accomplishment Award, sponsored by the Monsanto Company. Rebecca received the award for excellence in academics, leadership and agricultural work experience. Her accomplishments include FFA chapter vice-president, Forestry Team, Dairy Judging and Agricultural Communications State Winner. Rebecca also placed nationally in that event under the direction of Sarah Ward ’83, agricultural education instructor at Coe-Brown. As the 2009 winner of this award, Rebecca’s name will be recorded on a permanent plaque displayed at Coe-Brown.

Last April, Coe-Brown’s Concert and Select choruses received Gold Awards at the Heritage Festival held at Endicott College. The choruses, under the direction of CBNA music teacher David Deardorff, have also been invited to participate in the Festival of Gold, an invitation-only event open to elite performing groups. In addition, three CBNA students, Jacob Brownell ’10, Philip Shiere ’09 and Sophie Shiere ’12, were presented with the Maestro Award for outstanding individual excellence at the festival. The CBNA Chorus performed The Last Words of David by Randall Thompson, Animal Crackers by Eric Whitacre and Ol’ Man River by Jerome Kern, arranged by Russell Robinson. The Select Chorus performed Sure on this Shining Night by Morten Lauridsen and No Mark by Cecil Effinger.

NEWS FROM AROUND THE

Compiled by Betty Lent, CBNA faculty

Headmaster David S. Smith was inducted into the 2009 New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association (NHIAA) Hall of Fame during the association’s Annual Hall of Fame Banquet. The NHIAA created the Hall of Fame in 2001 as a way to recognize athletes, administrators, athletic directors, coaches and contributors for their extraordinary contributions to school-based interscholastic athletic programs for New Hampshire high schools. Mr. Smith was honored for his lengthy tenure as the Coe-Brown boys’ basketball coach.

CBNA sophomore Michaela Horvath has been appointed to D.A.R.E. America’s Youth Advisory Board (YAB). The board helps to give youth perspective and insight to D.A.R.E. and gives D.A.R.E. graduates an opportunity to speak to issues impacting the national and worldwide D.A.R.E. programs. The board is composed of 50 members, one student from each state. Student representatives are selected through a state-wide search. Michaela was nominated by the Nottingham Police

Department. Members of the YAB are eligible for the $20,000 D.A.R.E. America Scholarship upon their graduation from high school.

Michaela recently traveled to the D.A.R.E. America Youth Advisory Board National Conference held at the Drug Enforcement Administration Training Academy in Quantico, Virginia. There she met the other Youth Advisory Board representatives from across the country. Forty-six of the 50 states were represented and the students participated in tours, lectures, public speaking, games of trust and a mock drug raid, as well as practice at the F.B.I. firing range.

Congratulations to Aidan Cecchetti and Brianna Jean, members of the Class of 2009, who earned AP Scholar Awards in recognition of their exceptional achievement on AP Exams. The College Board’s Advanced Placement Program (AP) provides motivated and academically prepared students with the opportunity to take rigorous college-level courses while still in high school, and to earn college credit, advanced placement, or both for successful performance on the AP Exams. About 18 percent of the 1.6 million students worldwide who took AP Exams performed at a sufficiently high level to also earn an AP Scholar Award.

Italian planes. Plane sightings were called in to a central location and the spotters had to report on such things as number of aircraft; identify if it was known or unknown; single or multiple engines; if the planes were seen or heard; how far they were from the post; what direction they were headed; the altitude: high, medium or low; and speed: slow, fast or very fast. Notification had to be immediate.

“We would climb the ladder and go through the trap door above the third floor,” says Merl. “We had binoculars and when we heard a plane we would look for it. The tower

was the highest point around and you could see all the way to the coast. In a six-hour shift you might have three planes come by. The schedule was on the wall so you would know who had the shift after you.”

Connie Linnell Gates was another member of the Class of 1942 who participated in the aircraft warning service. “At the beginning of the war we didn’t realize how serious it was,” she says. “We didn’t have radios or television; most of our news came from the five minute newsreels they showed in the theater before a movie started. It was exciting to think we had a role in protecting our turf. My father and brothers were also aircraft spotters; everyone wanted to do their part.”

Connie’s memories of that era include the Academy canceling such

activities as baseball games, music festivals and even the senior trip due to gas rationing. “When I graduated from Coe-Brown and went to the University of New Hampshire I had to live on campus that first semester because gas rationing was still in effect. But I didn’t mind!”

A write up about the baseball team in the 1942 yearbook reads, “The boys were enthusiastic and expected to have a good season, but much to their disappointment and to the disappointment of the whole school, the schedule for this year was considerably shortened. This was because of the tire shortage and gas rationing which interfered with our transportation facilities. We accepted this decision with good will as we realize that sacrificing our baseball is only a small contribution towards the national war effort.”

Connie’s family, like many in the area, was self sustaining so food rationing was not as much of an issue. 4 Visions — Fall 2009

Looking Back: Coe-BrownstudentsdotheirpartduringWorldWarII

Tom Brokaw called them “The Greatest Generation.” They were people who came of age when our country was at war. Making sacrifices was second nature, whether it was on the front lines or at home in rural New Hampshire. Helping the war effort was part of the daily routine, and students at Coe-Brown Northwood Academy were no exception.

Many of the teenagers who attended Coe-Brown during the early 1940s were part of a civil defense effort called the Ground Observer Corps (GOC), a group of volunteers who were enrolled by the Army Air Forces to staff 14,000 observation posts positioned along the nation’s coastlines. With limited radar detection capability, the GOC’s mission was to visually search the skies for enemy aircraft attempting to penetrate American airspace.

The cupola atop Coe-Brown’s Pinkham Hall became one of these observation posts and Coe-Brown students took turns climbing to this vantage point for their aircraft spotting shifts.

Merl Seavey Bartels, a member of the Class of 1942, recalls that after the attack on Pearl Harbor the war really hit home. “At night we had to pull our shades so the lights wouldn’t show,” she says. “We had civil defense drills on a regular basis and in school we would crawl under our desks during the drills. There was a lot of rationing going on—sugar, meat, gas—and I remember that the owner of Demmons Store in West Nottingham would call us when bananas came in!”

Merl still has her rationing stamp book from those days. She took part in the aircraft warning service at Coe-Brown along with many other members of her class, including her now deceased husband, Phil Bartels. “But we didn’t have shifts at the same time,” Merl states. “Girls and boys were not allowed to be alone together in the tower; it was two boys or two girls at a time.”

The volunteers received training in how to spot the planes and to chart their location on a map. The Army provided identification books and flash cards to help in identifying different types of U.S., German, Japanese and

Spotters used schematics similar to this one to help identify the planes.

Generation, “The nation turned to its young to carry the heaviest burden, to fight in the enemy territory and to keep the home front secure and productive. These young men and women were eager for the assignment. They understood what was required of them, and they willingly volunteered for their duty.”

Special thanks to Merl Seavey Bartels and Connie Linnell Gates for sharing their stories!

Visions — Fall 2009 5

“We had civil defense drills on a regular basis and in school we would crawl under our desks during the drills.“ “We raised cows, fruits and vegetables on our farm,” she says. Connie remembers taking a welding course at one point: “The men were away fighting the war so women had to be trained to do their jobs at home.”

With the declining threat to America from German and Japanese air forces, the Army Air Forces disestablished the GOC in 1944. The Army issued thank you letters to its volunteers, saying, “It has been almost two and one-half years since that Sunday in 1941 when thousands of patriotic Americans sprang to the defense of their country by manning round-the-clock watches at Observation Posts, Filter Centers, and Information Centers. It is my conviction that there never existed a more sincere and loyal group of Americans than those who volunteered for this work.”

We are fortunate to count many Coe-Brown alumni among this loyal group of Americans. In addition to helping on the home front, young men from the graduating classes of the 1930s and 1940s enlisted or were drafted into the service during World War II. “My husband was drafted after graduation,” says Merl Bartels, “and other classmates, like John Crummey and Lawrence Hutchins signed up.”

Coe-Brown’s 1942 yearbook lists 34 alumni who were on active duty at the time (although some of them never graduated, having withdrawn from high school to join the service). Since then, many Coe-Brown alumni have chosen to serve their country by joining the U.S. Armed Forces. But we can’t forget those who stayed home and did their part to help protect the United States. As Tom Brokaw wrote in his book, The Greatest

The CBNA girls’ softball team had much to celebrate last spring with a 16-4 record for the season and a second straight trip to the Class I state championships. They faced the Portsmouth Clippers once again in the championship game and, in a strange twist of fate, lost to the Clippers by a score of 6 to 1—the same score as last year. But this did not dampen the spirits of the Coe-Brown Lady Bears. Players and the coaches alike were thrilled with the team’s accomplishments.

“Even though we had only one senior (shortstop Tia Beckwith) on the roster,” says Coach Tenasco, “it was still an incredibly strong team.”

In fact, Tia Beckwith, who played softball for four years at Coe-Brown, was named to the Foster’s Daily Democrat 2009 Softball Dream Team. Foster’s also named Tim Tenasco its 2009 Coach of the Year.

Sisters Corinne ’12 and Nicole ’10 LeMauk were a force to be reckoned with as pitcher and catcher, respectively.

“It’s sad we didn’t win the championship,” says Nicole. “But I’m proud of our team.”

The entire Coe-Brown community shares that pride—way to go, Lady Bears!

The last time CBNA’s Softball Team won a state title was in 1978. For the last two years the current girls softball team has made it all the way to the Class I State Finals. This year at the championship game a special group of CBNA alumni were present to cheer on the girls softball team. They were some of the members of the 1979, 1978 and 1977 teams.

Cash Gifts

Visions — Fall 2009 7

Coe-Brown would not be able to accomplish all of its educational and co-curricular goals without the generous support of our alumni and other friends of the Academy. Your gifts to the Annual Campaign and participation in the Alumni and Friends Golf Tournament or special efforts such as Buy a Tile or Buy a Key (a fund set up to help with the purchase of a grand piano for Coe-Brown’s music department) are vitally important to the Academy’s current and future students.

We know it is not always easy or even possible to write a check to Coe-Brown to support these efforts. But there are a number of other ways that you can contribute to the Academy’s future and, in some cases, enjoy substantial tax benefits at the same time. As a public academy, Coe-Brown is designated as a non-profit organization under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Service tax code. This means that gifts made to the Academy are potentially tax deductible as a charitable contribution.

Here are some charitable gift ideas that will benefit Coe-Brown while reducing your taxable income. Gifts can be restricted to specific funds, such as the Academy’s endowment fund, or to specific areas such as academics, arts or athletics.

This is the most common type of charitable giving. All cash donations are deductible if you itemize your tax return. And there are some creative ways to make a cash gift. You can give a gift in memory of a loved one who has passed. Or you can make a cash donation in honor of anyone you choose on the occasion of a birthday, graduation, anniversary or other event. What a great idea for the person who has everything!

Don’t forget that many employers offer a matching gift program. If you make a cash gift to Coe-Brown, your employer’s match might double that gift! Check with your human resources department to see if this benefit is available to you.

People often send flowers to friends and family when a loved one passes. Why not suggest a charitable donation in lieu of flowers? If the deceased person had a connection to Coe-Brown or placed a high value on education, cash donations made in his or her memory would leave a lasting legacy.

Gift planning with Coe-Brown Northwood Academy

A lasting legacy:Bequeathing a portion of your estate to a charitable organization

reduces the size of the tax burden on the estate. Bequests can be a specific dollar amount of a percentage of your estate. Another option is to bequeath a share of the remainder of your estate after making provisions for your primary heirs. Gifts can also be contingent on one or more of your heirs predeceasing you.

You can name Coe-Brown as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy. Many people have employer-funded group life insurance in addition to personal policies. If you own more insurance than you need, or if your beneficiaries no longer need the coverage, consider donating one or more of the policies to Coe-Brown. In many cases you will receive an immediate income tax deduction (depending on the type of policy contributed). You can also name Coe-Brown as the beneficiary of a retirement account or pension plan, or of a bank account or certificate of deposit with a “payable-on-death” designation. As with bequests, these options are revocable and can be changed by you at any time.

This is just a brief overview of the many options that are available to you within the realm of charitable and planned giving. Your financial consultant can provide information about more sophisticated options such as charitable trusts, charitable gift annuities or gifts of stock or property. You should always check with a professional tax advisor before making any major decisions that could affect your financial circumstances.

Whatever choices you make, we hope you will consider donating to Coe-Brown as an option. Your gift, whether immediate or deferred, large or small, makes a big difference!

The fourth annual Coe-Brown Northwood Academy (CBNA) Alumni and Friends Golf Tournament was held on June 12 at Candia Woods Golf Links and raised $3,700 for the academy’s endowment fund. The lead sponsors for the tournament were Graystone Builders of Strafford and Fred Fuller Oil Company of Hudson.

Thirty-five golfers participated with the team of Steve Leighton, Donna Leighton, Jim Kelly and Brad Kelly emerging as the winners with a gross score of 66. The second place team consisted of Randy Burgess, Robert Woodman, Jim Langley and Bill Wainright; their gross score was 68.

Northwood Power Equipment was the hole-in-one sponsor again this year, although no one was lucky enough to win a tractor. Hole sponsors for this year’s tournament were Holy Rosary Regional Credit Union, Northwood Physical Therapy, Northwood Diner, Meyer Family Dentistry, Coe-Brown Alumni Association, M.D. Tasker Construction of Northwood, Civil Consultants of Dover, Whitcher Builders of Strafford, Dowling Corporation of Portsmouth, Sign Spectrum of Northwood and The Inn at Deerfield, a home for elders with dementia.

Raffle and tournament prize sponsors were Wal-Mart Rochester, Hannaford Concord, Spinelli Cinemas, Chadbourn’s Restaurant and Gift Shop of Northwood, Smuttynose Brewing Company, Dunkin’ Donuts of Northwood, Irving Mainway of Northwood, Northwood Garage, Nippo Lake Golf Club, Candia Woods Golf Links, Collins Sports Center, Shaw’s Supermarket Concord, Fisher Cats Baseball, the Lazy Lion Café of Deerfield, Mountain Road Trading Post and Coca-Cola of Northern New England.

Heritage True Value Hardware of Northwood sponsored the Closest to the Pin Contest, which was won by Trevor Mauck ‘02. New England Dragway donated the prize for the Longest Putt, which was won by Joy Wood.

Next year’s tournament is scheduled for Saturday, June 12, 2010, at Nippo Lake Golf Course

in Barrington.
