Annual Report I Spring 2017
Dear Friends,
Heathwood’s annual report offers
an opportunity to celebrate the
generosity of those whose support
has a transformative impact on
the life of the school. In so doing,
it also creates an opportunity to
reflect on what makes a Heathwood
education so distinctive and worthy
of our donors’ investments.
For me, one of the defining
qualities of the Heathwood experience is its breadth—and
in particular, the way, for so many of our students, it extends
beyond the official 3:05 “end” of the school day. With almost
half of our Early Childhood and Lower School students staying
for Afternoon Express, and more than 80 percent of Middle
and Upper School students playing at least one sport, not to
mention those who participate in after-school enrichment
programs or spend hours after school rehearsing for plays or
preparing for competition in extracurriculars like Mock Trial
and Robotics, the hours of 3:00-7:00 p.m. are a defining part of
the Heathwood experience for the majority of our students.
That’s why “Heathwood from 3-7” is the theme
of this year’s annual report. Apart from the wide array
of opportunities offered for our students to explore
interests, discover passions, and develop talents, there
are a lot of reasons to value the activities that take place
at Heathwood after the formal school day has ended.
In many ways, after-school activities enhance or reinforce
what students are learning in the classroom. We typically
think of these activities as extracurricular, but they are often
more accurately described as co-curricular. Band practice, for
example, is an extension and hands-on application of what
students have worked on in music class, while Mock Trial and
Model UN draw on rhetorical skills developed in English class.
Our student athletes, as they work together in practices and
games, are honing vital skills like communication and teamwork.
Heathwood’s vision statement charges us “To inspire and
empower students to unlock their potential, develop their
character, and gain the confidence to transform a dynamic
world.” After-school activities enhance our ability to provide
that kind of distinctively Heathwood education in so many
ways. As I’ve seen over and over in my 20-plus years as an
IFC
The Highlander
2 01 5 -2 016 A N N U A L R E P O R T
educator, students learn significant life lessons and retain
new skills when they are happy, excited, and engaged
in something they love. They also take more ownership of
their failures and gain more authentic confidence from their
successes when pursuing after-school activities. Students
who are busy in productive ways after school spend less
time glued to the screens of their phones or video games and
learn time management skills that many of our alumni tell us
have benefited them enormously in college and beyond.
At Heathwood, all of this intellectual, artistic, athletic,
and personal growth takes place in a particularly supportive
environment. For example, while student athletes at larger
schools may have to navigate the sometimes conflicting
demands of their teachers and their coaches largely on
their own, Heathwood’s coaches have a long tradition of
working with teachers to make sure athletics don’t eclipse
academics and students are not overextended. Because we
are a smaller community where students are truly known
by their teachers, we are able to be nimble in creating new
after-school opportunities in response to student interests.
As students connect with peers and teachers in new ways
through extracurriculars, they build stronger relationships
that also enhance their classroom experiences.
Much of the growth—and the joy—our students experience
at Heathwood from 3-7 is made possible by the generous
support of Heathwood parents and friends. Parent groups
like the Highlander Club and HARTS contribute enormously
to the success of our athletics and arts programs. Parent and
grandparent volunteers who coach middle school sports or help
with costumes and choreography for school plays have a direct
impact on our students in even more ways than they may realize.
All this brings me back to the central focus of the annual
report—recognizing and thanking all of the many people who
have so generously supported Heathwood in countless ways.
We have had much to celebrate over the past year. Your support
has played a vital role in all that we have accomplished.
Thank you,
Chris Hinchey, Head of School

HEATHWOOD FROM 3-7: ATHLETICS
Building a Championship Team:
It’s About More than
Developing the Talent
“Successful coaches… realize it is
about the players”: Heathwood’s
four recent coaches of the
year have much in common
An interview with Boys Cross Country Coach Cindy Scannella
Boys Cross Country Coach Cindy Scannella is one of
four members of the Highlanders athletics staff to be
named coach of the year in the past twelve months.
Scannella, who was SCISA 2016 Region Coach of
the Year and SC High School Sports Report State
Coach of the Year, led a young but talented team
all the way to a state title this year—a remarkable
achievement given that the Highlanders finished
8th at last year’s state meet and then lost their top
runner when Luke Spurrier moved to Oklahoma.
“What she did this year was truly outstanding,” says
Heathwood Athletic Director Jeff Whalen. “When
you look at where they came from, the progress
they made from last year to this year, and the age of
the team, that’s just a remarkable coaching job.”
Great coaching obviously had a lot to do with
the team’s success, but Scannella says the team
dynamic—and specifically the trust her runners
had in each other—mattered even more. Here she
talks about what it was like to coach a young team
through a Cinderella season and to realize after
the first few meets that the boys she had expected
to be grooming for future victory actually had the
potential to win championships in the here and now.
What were your expectations at
the beginning of the season?
If you had told me last year that we’d win the state
title this year, I’d have said you were from Mars. Two
of our top runners, Aidan Powers and Matthew
Quan, were coming back from soccer injuries. Rox
Pollard, Thomas Edwards, and Harrison Boorda,
4
S P R I N G 2 017
The Highlander
who had been strong performers in previous
years, all ended up injured over the first weeks of
the season as well. That left two middle schoolers,
Joe French and Hugh Willcox, as our top runners.
And we hadn’t won an invitational in years.
So what happened? How did a young
and injury-plagued team find itself
in contention for the state title?
It started at the cross country camp many
of the boys attended at Appalachian State
over the summer. There was such a sense of
purpose among them. And that’s where they
really bonded over their shared goals.
Looking back, what really stands out to me is
their trust—in each other and in the process. They
trusted that they needed to do all the things we
taught them. As a result, they were ready to start
training more rigorously. Midway through the
season, they won the Wilson Hall Invitational, and
then they just kept winning. And because of the
bonds of trust they had with each other, by the
time we got toward the end of the season and were
training for regionals and state, I could basically
stay out of it and let them prep themselves.
As a younger coach, I thought it was all about
developing the talent. But now I know that heart,
and a strong bond between teammates, are even
more important. These guys had the will to win.
And it was amazing to see them know that they
could do something and then go out and do it. That
experience will help them throughout their lives.
“It’s a race—it’s supposed to hurt.”
Cross country has a reputation as a tough sport. The
tagline on the team’s warm-up shirts this year was “It’s
a race—it’s supposed to hurt.” What makes all the
hard work (and even the pain) worthwhile?
Cross country is not an easy sport. It requires you to push yourself
physically and mentally and the training can be very difficult. But you
can do whatever you want after you’ve conquered cross country—not
just because of the toughness it develops in you but because of what
you learn about yourself. In my own experience, it’s taught me that
when I’m tired or things feel hard, I can still push through. These boys
are also putting themselves in the position to draw on that reservoir.
Now that you—and the boys—know what they’re capable of,
what comes next?
We can’t rest on our laurels, because Ben Lippen, Porter Gaud, and
Cardinal Newman will all come back with strong teams next year. But our
boys have tremendous potential. They’re still nowhere close to where I
can see them being—but they’re well on their way. So I’d like to think this
year’s state championship is the start of something for this program—
they have both the tools and the desire to keep performing at a high level.
Coaching requires a huge time investment, and you have
a lot on your plate already as the Upper School admin
and the faculty advisor for the yearbook. What makes
the hours you put in with these guys worthwhile?
It is an absolute blessing every day to go out there and help someone
change their life—whether it’s working with them to achieve
something they’ve never been able to do before, or helping them
realize they’re capable of stepping up to a leadership role. It is just
so fun and so rewarding to see them discover what they can do.
In the past year, four Heathwood coaches have earned
Region and/or State Coach of the Year Honors:
•Andrew Richardson, boys soccer—Region Co Coach of the Year, State Coach of the Year
•Ashley Jordan, volleyball—Region Coach of the Year
•Cindy Scannella, cross country—Region
Coach of the Year, State Coach of the Year
•Jeff Whalen, boys basketball—Region Coach of the Year
We’re proud that so many of our coaches have been
recognized for their great work with our student athletes.
Their success, says Head of School Chris Hinchey, stems both
from their individual talents and perspectives and from the
general culture of Heathwood’s Athletics Department:
“Heathwood Hall believes deeply that student-teacher
relationships are the foundation of a healthy educational
environment. Coaches are teachers, and good coaching depends
on strong coach-player relationships. Because our coaches remain
focused on team chemistry and player development, motivation, and
engagement, the improved performance of the individual players
and the team follows. Too often coaches look toward their win-loss
record. Great coaches focus on player and team development.”
“Jeff and Cindy have perspective and wisdom gained from
decades on the sidelines working with countless young people. Our two younger coaches have a strong knowledge of the
sport and a deep care for their players. They are also eager to
learn and value the mentorship of more experienced coaches. Ultimately, successful coaches are the same. They realize that it
is about the players. How can they help their players recognize
the individual investments and sacrifices required to maximize
the performance of a specific group during a unique season.”

HEATHWOOD FROM 3-7: ATHLETICS
Reflections on Being a
Heathwood Student Athlete
Balancing Sports and Academics:
Student-Athlete
Study Hall
—Rachael Whittaker, ’17
Athletics are an important part
of the Heathwood experience
for many students. We asked
Senior Rachael Whittaker—a
cheerleader and standout
member of the Basketball and
Track teams—to reflect on
what her time as a Heathwood
athlete has meant to her:
6
S P R I N G 2 017
As a student athlete at
Heathwood, the lessons and
experiences I’ve gained have
been invaluable. If you are
an athlete at Heathwood, the
word “student” always comes
before the word “athlete.” I don’t
remember ever being referred
to as an athlete without the
word “student” emphasized in
my title. Never was there any
doubt about my priorities.
Although my main
The Highlander
athletic focus has been as a track
and field sprinter, Heathwood
has afforded me the opportunity
to run cross country, play
basketball, and even be a
cheerleader. Reflecting on all of
these experiences, I think that
the most important take-aways
are fortitude and the importance
of being a team player.
I am being recruited by several
Division I and II colleges for track
and field, and I’ve won several
state championship titles in
my events. While I’m proud of
those accomplishments, I think
that running cross country has
taught me the most because
it doesn’t come easily
for me. At best, I’m
just average. However, I’ve
come away feeling that if I can
cross that finish line, I can do
anything. Thank you, Coach
Ware, for pushing me, and
never allowing me to give up!
If I never run another race
or shoot another basketball, I
feel like a winner because
of the life lessons that
being a student-athlete at
Heathwood have taught me.
“I’ve come
away feeling
that if I can
cross that
finish line,
I can do
anything.”
in Ms. Dawson’s Room
Juggling a demanding high school curriculum
and high-level athletic competition can be
a tricky balance. But for many Heathwood
student athletes, that balance comes easier
thanks to after-school study hall in Upper
School history teacher Gigi Dawson’s room.
Regardless of the season, anywhere from a
handful to a roomful of athletes are likely to
be found in Ms. Dawson’s room on any given
afternoon, making good use of the time between
the end of the school day and the beginning of
practice to complete homework, study for tests,
or slip out to get extra help from other teachers.
The study hall is
appealing, says basketball
player DQ Joseph, ’18,
because “Ms. Dawson
gives us food, and it’s
a community in here.”
More seriously, he adds,
“I’ve been coming here
since 9th grade, so this
room is a comfortable
environment for me. And
usually by the time I get
home from practice it’s
late or I’m tired, so it’s
great to get my work
done before practice.”
Fellow basketball
player Maurice Bell, ’20,
adds that “Freshman year is tough, so coming
here helps me keep up with my assignments.”
That, says Jaelen King, ’18, is because
“Ms. Dawson keeps us on top of things.”
In typical Heathwood fashion, the studentathlete study hall started organically, with a
group of football players who were encouraged
by Heathwood strength and conditioning coach
Jay Spearman to devote a little more time to
their studies between school and practice. As
increasing numbers of students came to appreciate
the opportunity to get much of their work
done before practice, the study hall continued
“This room is a comfortable
environment for me. And
… it’s great to get my work
done before practice.”
into the basketball and soccer seasons.
Ms. Dawson echoes the students’ feeling that a
strong sense of community is a key ingredient in
the study hall’s secret sauce: “Because I’ve taught
them in the 9th grade, they all know me, and they
know I won’t hesitate to look for them if they’re
not here,” she says. “Sometimes they just need a
gentle shove in the right direction. And the nice
thing is that having them here is usually a lot of fun.”

HEATHWOOD FROM 3-7: ATHLETICS
“You Represent Something
More than Yourself”:
Coach Marcus Lattimore on the Future of Heathwood Football
Newly hired Heathwood Head Football
Coach Marcus Lattimore is already working
hard preparing for the 2017 football season.
Heathwood Assistant Athletic Director
Andrew Richardson recently interviewed
Coach Lattimore on Facebook Live about his
plans, goals, role models and more. Here’s a
transcript of their January 27 conversation:
Andrew Richardson: Hey Highlander
fans. This is Coach Andrew Richardson here
with our new head football coach, Marcus
Lattimore. We’re obviously very excited
to have Coach. So, first off, what are your
goals? What are your plans? What are your
thoughts as we get ready to head into
year one of the Marcus Lattimore era?
Marcus Lattimore: Well, first off, I just want
to thank Chris Hinchey and Jeff Whalen for
believing in a young coach, a guy who may
have very little experience but loves the game
of football. I am forever grateful for them. I’m
blessed to even be in this position to lead
these young men. My main thing for this year
is to make sure these seniors have a great time
playing the game of football, that they go out
and they enjoy their last year because they
put in so much work in the classroom. Most
of the guys are playing other sports and they
work so hard at that. They’re just good kids
and they deserve it. So that’s really the main
goal for me, and to develop the younger guys
and make sure they’re in a position where
they can be successful in the years to come.
Andrew: As you mentioned, you’ll be a firstyear varsity coach this fall, but you do have
that quality year of experience. You were able
to work with the B-team this past year and
take a team that hadn’t won a game in two
years and turn them into the championshipcaliber team as they captured the first-ever
Region 1 title this fall. What lessons were
you able to learn about yourself as a coach
in year one that you’ll be able to take into
year one with the varsity this coming fall?
Marcus: You know, I’m so proud of those guys
for the way that they responded to adversity.
Those first two games didn’t go as planned,
but they fought and they started to believe…
They started to believe that they could beat
Ben Lippen; they believed that they could beat
Hammond and Cardinal Newman. They did,
and with all of those guys, the most impressive
thing was the leadership off the field. Those
guys are friends off the field. And when you
have that type of camaraderie, that type of
team chemistry, I think it helps a lot. So, it was
a great experience, and I learned personally,
for myself, that I have to be a little bit more
patient. I have to put them in a position to
be successful. I have to put them in the best
possible position and run things that they
like. I’m just so proud of those guys, again.
Andrew: Well, that’s certainly important.
Obviously, our community recognizes you from
8
S P R I N G 2 017
The Highlander
your time with the 49ers and your time as a
Gamecock, but before then, you were fortunate
enough to play for one of the most storied high
school football programs in the state at Byrnes
High School. What lessons, though, were you
able to learn from high school that you hope
that you’ll be able to bring to the Highlander
football experience here at Heathwood?
Marcus: You know, I’ve played in Death
Valley - both Death Valleys. I’ve played at
the Seattle Seahawks stadium. But there’s
nothing like a Friday night anywhere in the
state of South Carolina. Anywhere. And that
sense of pride, that sense of commitment,
that sense of dedication to your school, that’s
what I want to bring here. You represent more
than just yourself. You represent Heathwood
Hall Episcopal School, and it has to mean
something to you. I want these guys to know
that they represent something bigger than
themselves. They represent the class of 1978
and the class of 1986. They represent a lot
of people that came through Heathwood
Hall and represent them with pride.
Andrew: Well, I love the fact that you
said, “bigger than themselves.” And those
of us that have been fortunate enough to be
around you since you’ve been on campus
have just gotten accustomed to hearing
the phrase “bigger than football.” Can
you tell the Highlander community about
what exactly “bigger than football” means
and why it’s so important to you?
Marcus: Right. You know, that term, “bigger
than football,” is exactly what it sounds like.
When you hear that, you think about other
things outside of the game of football. Yes,
this game is great. It breaks down barriers. It
brings families together. Those things are
what matter the most, I think, and we’re in
a unique situation here at Heathwood Hall
because we prioritize academics more than
athletics, which is how it should be. And one
of the main reasons I took this job is to get a
different perspec tive on life - to get a different
perspective on education, because here in
South Carolina, we have a tendency to prioritize
athletics over academics. And when guys are
playing high school football and people are
telling them how great they are…that’s the only
place they find identity. And when football ends
for these guys, it can be detrimental to their
Heathwood Hall
9
HEATHWOOD FROM 3-7: ATHLETICS
“how will this affect my team?”
mental state… I want these guys to know that
through academics you find your gift. Socially,
I want these guys to know that you represent
something bigger than yourself. The choices
and decisions that you make, they have to buy
into Heathwood. Before you make a decision,
you have to say, “how will this affec t my team?”
Athletically, when these guys go out there
and play the game of football, you play as if
you’re doing it for the Lord… And spiritually,
which I think is the biggest component… You
know, I can sit here and talk about my walk
with Christ, but none of us are saints; none of
us are perfect; we all fall short of His glory. But,
I think, the biggest part of when I say bigger
than football is when you play this game, you
find your purpose. And when I say you find your
purpose, you find your life’s message. What are
you trying to leave on this earth? What is the
message that you’re trying to carry throughout
every aspect of your life? And for me personally,
I think it’s when you get knocked down, you
can get back up because of the people you have
in your life. I guess the biggest thing for me is
that I don’t want these guys, when football
ends, to feel like life ends. That’s my purpose,
and through this, that’s why I do this. That’s
why I’m a football coach. That’s why I get to
do this on a daily basis, and I’m just so excited
about the future of working with these guys.
Andrew: Think about these three people:
Bobby Bentley, Steve Spurrier, and Jim
Harbaugh. The last three people you’ve had as
head coaches have been iconic figures, hall of
fame-caliber coaches and men. As you start to
develop your own coaching style, what lessons
can you learn from those three in particular,
10
S P R I N G 2 017
The Highlander
and how will
you be able to
transform what
they’ve done or
haven’t done
into how you do
things here?
Marcus: That’s
a great question
because all three
of those guys are
similar in some aspect. They love the game
of football. They’re passionate about it. They
are all offensive geniuses. And they’re all great
men and they care about their guys. And that’s
absolutely one component that I’m going to
take from them. But on the football aspect, I
think all three of those guys focus on not the big
picture, but the little things, the little details
in the plays that matter the most. Because
this game is simple. People try to make it more
complicated than what it is. It’s who’s catching
better, who’s tackling more, who’s moving
better, and who’s blocking better. It’s a simple
game, and we break it down in a way where
technique and details matter the most… But
at the end of the day, when you take football
off the table, they cared about their guys. They
loved us and we recognized that. And we
followed that with passion for playing the game
of football. That’s what I want out there starting
in August with the Heathwood Highlanders.
Andrew: Obviously, those three guys
have been coaches and have been
involved in your life, more than just with
football, but particularly while you were
on the field. Tell me a little bit about the
people who have had a major impact on
you outside of the game of football.
Marcus: That’s huge. You know, I wouldn’t be
sitting here today if it wasn’t for my mother,
who moved from Atlanta when she was 18
years old with my older brother and sister and
started a life for herself. Because where she was
in Atlanta, there were a lot of drugs; there was
a lot of crime; there was a lot of violence. And
she wanted better for her children. What that
taught me was sacrifice. What that taught me
was commitment and dedication to something
bigger than yourself. And she’s given me
every opportunity to be successful in my life. I
never wanted for anything and it’s because
of my mother. Obviously, I was introduced to
sports at a young age and she’s done that. I
met Coach Bentley when I was seven years old,
and I start playing with his oldest son, who’s
now a strength coach. And Bobby Bentley is
another person in my life that if I was not – I
wouldn’t be sitting here today if it wasn’t for
Bobby Bentley and the lessons that he taught
me through the game of football. He gave me
the passion to coach. He gave me the passion
to be myself. And, you know, he just taught
me what a man is really supposed to look
like and really helped me with my walk with
Christ. I can go down a list of people: Adrienne
Despres, one of the chaplains at University of
South Carolina. My wife. She’s been through
a lot and she’s an amazing, amazing lady. I’m
just happy to walk with her in this life. And my
dad…just so many people. I’m a product of
investors. That’s how I’ll describe this whole
situation. They invested in me and it’s why
I sit here today. And I listened to them. You
know, that’s one thing that I think separates
people who are successful and people who
are not. You listen to these people who’ve
done it before and you take the hymn and you
make it your own. But yeah, it’s just been a
journey. I’m forever grateful to those people.
Andrew: We’re just going to finish with a little
bit of fun, a little bit of a word association game.
Marcus: Here we go.
Andrew: I’ll say a word or phrase and you say
the first thing that comes to mind. Family.
Marcus: Heathwood.
Andrew: Rivalry
Marcus: Skyhawks.
Andrew: Yikes. He
went after it early.
We’re ten months
out of that, but we’re
ready to go. Okay, last
one: South Beltline.
Marcus: Different.
Special. Unique. Home.
Andrew: I like that one.
Marcus: Family.
Andrew: Keep going.
Marcus: I could just keep going. I could go for
days. You know, this is something new for me,
something I’m excited about, and I’m only as
good as the people I surround myself with. We
have a great strength and conditioning coach
(Jay Spearman). We have great coaches around
here who believe in developing young people,
who want to see young people succeed. And I
couldn’t be happier to work beside this guy right
here, Andrew Richardson, who’s actually been
a good mentor to me. He’s passionate about
everything he does and is just a good leader.
Andrew: Thank you, Coach. And for you

HEATHWOOD FROM 3-7: PEAK
Uniquely Heathwood:
PEAK Outdoor Education and Leadership
Heathwood’s PEAK program touches
every student on campus through
its outdoor education classes, field
trips, after-school programs, and
leadership opportunities—one of
which is the PEAK Student Leaders
(PSL) program, through which
Upper School students undergo
comprehensive training and then
assist with PEAK outdoor programs for
both younger students and adults.
Some 40 Upper School students
currently serve as PEAK Student
Leaders. Two who have been in
the PSL program for four years
now, seniors Harrison Boorda and
Louise Tester, offered to share their
reflections on what they value
most about the PSL experience.
When you look back on your
PEAK experience, what makes
you glad you signed on?
Harrison: Being a PSL gives you a
perspective of greater empathy.
Working with so many younger
students, you see every type
of personality and character,
and it helps you see who they
are becoming and what kind
of person they aspire to be.
Louise: It’s given me such a great
perspective on the sense of unity
PEAK helps create within the
school. As Upper School students
working with younger students,
we feel like we’re all a family, all
part of a larger community. And I
love that the skills we’re teaching
younger students are things
many of them will in turn pass
down when they become PSLs.
What’s been your favorite
thing about being a PEAK
Student Leader?
Louise: I love working with
kids on the Odyssey Tower
and ropes course. So many
are afraid of heights, and it’s
great to help them conquer
that, and to be part of helping
them expand their horizons.
Harrison: For me, it’s taking kids
down the river and seeing their
reactions to the rapids and their

many different reactions when you
put a group of kids in a position to
rediscover the beauty of nature.
Being able to share that kind of
experience and to pass on an
appreciation of nature is one of the
greatest things about being a PSL.
What do you feel like you’ve
gotten out of the PSL program?
Harrison: It’s helped me so
much on a leadership level.
I’ve learned how to work with
people in any situation, and
how to communicate effectively
even in situations when people
are scared and anxious.
Louise: It’s given me a lot of
respect for parents. And it’s helped
me get good at thinking on my
feet. When you’re working with
younger kids, you don’t always
know how they’ll react, so you
have to be prepared to respond
in a supportive, productive way
whether they’re nervous or
having the time of their lives.
Harrison: It’s also helped me
with time management. It’s
kind of addicting to help people
work through PEAK programs,
but I’ve had to learn to balance
that with other obligations.
And I can’t sing Coach Wood’s
praises high enough. He just
gives and gives and gives. I
remember staying on campus
with him until really late one
night cleaning off muddy boats
and he never complained.
Louise: Yeah, his dedication
is infectious. A lot of us were
out here for most of this past
summer. But that’s also because
we honestly just love it!

Mock
Trial
Over the past few years, Heathwood’s Upper School Mock Trial Team has become a force to be reckoned with. Under
the guidance of coach (and Heathwood parent) Barb Petit, they have won regional and state competitions and are
currently nationally ranked. Their success is in no small part a result of the countless after-school hours they log in
Heathwood’s mock trial room, which is set up to resemble a courtroom, prepping relentlessly for each competition.
IN HER OWN WORDS: EMMA SHEALY, ’18
“The Mock Trial Program at Heathwood Hall was the
first club that I joined when I arrived at this school
in ninth grade. I had no idea who anyone was on the
team and I had no idea what kind of commitment I
was making by joining the team. But neither of those
things stopped me from walking up to Barbara Petit
during a lunch meeting and introducing myself.
Since that fateful day in the dining commons, I have
competed in state competitions and international
competitions. I have been awarded most effective
attorney and witness and this summer I will
be going to the National Youth in Government
Competition. I would not have been able
to do any of these things without
the support and guidance of
Ms. Petit and the rest of the
Heathwood mock trial team and
the countless hours we spend preparing for trial.
16
S P R I N G 2 017
The Highlander
Mock trial combines all of the things I want to do
into one activity: speaking, performing, arguing,
and most importantly striving for justice. Though
the cases that we argue in mock trial never actually
happened and there are no consequences at the
end of the case’s outcome, the point of the trial is
to address issues that make us question what we
stand for. Mock trial teaches you to think about why
you believe in something and to examine it from all
angles. And once you figure out where you stand,
you can protect your beliefs and
the beliefs of others.”
This is 7th grader Daniel Sobel’s third year
playing chess at Heathwood. He participates
in both the Middle School Chess Club and
weekly after-school classes with National
Master player Sam Copeland. In that
relatively short time, Daniel has already won
three tournaments, including last year’s
SCISA State Middle School Tournament.
He’s also discovered that chess competition
is a great way to meet like-minded people
and to develop life skills that have served
him well in school. “There’s always a clock
running when you play,” he says, “so it
helps with time management—and
with planning and organizing what
you do.” He feels that the program at
Heathwood has helped him improve
his game considerably, which is good
because “my ultimate chess goal is to
become a Grand Master and be able
to teach others and
get them excited
about chess.”
“…so it helps with
time management—
and with planning
and organizing
what you do.”

Honors Science Students
Robotics:
Hands-on High Tech
Gain STEM Experience
Through Independent Research
Creativity
While Heathwood’s youngest
students gain hands-on STEM
experience in our Tinker
Lab, older students have the
opportunity to tinker in evermore-ambitious ways through
the Middle School and Upper
School Robotics Clubs. The
Middle School team, coached by
parent Denise Davis and science
teacher Jason Giovannone,
has a strong record of success
in regional and statewide
competitions. The Upper School
team, newly formed this year and
advised by computer science
teacher Tom Simpson, recently
turned a storage space near the
band room into a practice space
where they can meet after school
to fine-tune their robot and test
its capacity to perform various
tasks. In addition to exploring
the basic mechanics of building
and operating their machine,
the students take advantage
of cutting-edge technology,
using a 3D printer to build parts,
and operating the robot via
an app on their cellphones.
Many of the students on
the Upper School team, the
HighTechLanders, have

in a host of different ways:
Riley Haywood and Noah Schumacher’s
honors science research project about the
amounts of ethanol produced by two different
kinds of mushrooms actually started out as a
project about the respective strengths of two
different kinds of bulletproof materials. But
after weeks of planning, the two boys, both 9th
graders in Jim Morris’s honors science research
class, discovered that not all the supplies they
needed for their original experiment were
available. So at a point in the year when most of
their classmates were well into their projects,
they had to begin again, shifting gears from
physics and materials science to biochemistry.
“It was disappointing to have to start
over,” said Noah. “We had planned our
whole project and then it fell apart.”
But the project they completed, which
explores the capacity of mushrooms to
produce biofuels, goes beyond the typical
high school science project in that it has
meaningful real-world implications. As
Riley and Noah explain in the introduction
to the 15-page summation of their
results, “The demand for biofuels has risen
tremendously,” and current sources like
corn are becoming inadequate to meet
that demand. Mushrooms are a promising
alternative, and Riley and Noah discovered
that Portobello mushrooms produce almost
20 times as much ethanol as Shiitakes,
making them a particularly viable option.
Like most of Heathwood’s honors science
students—all of whom have elec ted to take
honors-level science classes and to choose
a science research class as one of their
electives—Noah and Riley put in significant
time after school to complete their research
and the accompanying paper, which they will
present both at Heathwood’s own Science
Research Symposium and at the annual
meeting of the SC Junior Academy of Science.
“All told, between procuring materials,
conducting the experiment, writing the
paper, and creating our presentation,
between the two of us we probably spent
35-40 hours outside of class,” Riley said.
That time was well spent, said Noah,
because both are interested in STEMrelated careers and “We gained a lot of
experience from doing the project.”
“The fact that we had to start over two
months in but still caught up in the end gave us
a great feeling of accomplishment,” Riley said.
“We gained a lot of
experience from
doing the project.”

Following in the great tradition of

serious musicianship, joy, and wit

to their performances. Members
choose their own music and
rehearse on a schedule that
would rival that of any athletic
team. The singing group’s size
can range from eight to fifteen.
“People ask to join,” said
Jack Falvey, a junior who has
been a member since eighth
grade. There is an audition
process, but experience is not
required. “It’s for people who
have an interest in singing. It’s
a good group and a way to
become friends with people
you wouldn’t otherwise know.”
Paul Smith, a freshman who
also joined in eighth grade,
said, “It’s difficult to fill the room
with our sound. (Accomplishing
that) is what makes it great.”
Paul’s older brother,
Emerson, was one of the
founding members of the
group. Emerson graduated
from Clemson and has started
his own company, which offers
field trips using virtual reality.
In addition to singing at
concerts throughout the
year at Heathwood, Men
in Plaid have entertained
locally and nationally.
Janis Corley, their director,
said the group’s origin was
organic and unplanned. “Our
choir had performed at an event
and on the bus ride back to
Heathwood, the guys
started harmonizing
and improvising songs.
We were so impressed
with their a cappella
sound, that I asked
them to form an a
cappella group. That
was the beginning
of Men in Plaid and
it has continued to
be an integral part of
our choral program.”

Open Art Sessions
On Wednesday afternoons from 3:15-4:15, Upper School Art Teacher
Scotty Peak offers Open Art sessions, to which all Heathwood
parents, faculty and staff, and Upper School students are invited. It’s
a chance for serious art students to get in more studio time and for
more casual artists to sketch or paint in a relaxed, informal setting.
One Heathwood student who has frequently taken advantage of
the Open Art program this year is Freshman Constance McCants,
who reflec ts here on what the program has meant to her:
Whenever my Wednesday afternoon is
free I always try to make it to the
open art session. It’s a great
way to escape school
related stress and do
something art related!
I don’t usually draw
people for fun, but it’s
definitely helped me get
out of my comfort zone
and explore new areas
of art. From the open art
sessions I am now able
to look at a 3D figure and
transfer it on to paper as a
2D form picture. I’ve gained
a lot from this experience
and hope to continue
through the rest of the year.

HEATHWOOD FROM 3-7: ARTS
“Our students are
capable of so much”:
Drama Teacher EG Engle, ’01, Reflects on Participating
and Teaching in Heathwood’s Theatre Program
Heathwood Hall drama teacher EG Engle’s drama career began when
she was tapped for the role of Mary in Heathwood’s 1988 Kindergarten
Nativity Play. Now she and Lower School music teacher Barbara
Bryan, who directed her in that play, work side by side, along with
Middle and Upper School music teacher Janis Corley and a dedicated
group of parent volunteers, to create multiple opportunities a
year for Heathwood students to explore the dramatic arts.
Here, EG, ’01, talks about what she got out of her own experience
as a student in Heathwood’s drama program, why she finds her job
rewarding, and what impresses her about the students and parents
whose hard work keeps Heathwood’s drama program thriving.
What was your theatre experience like at Heathwood?
I caught the theatre bug in middle school, when we did classic children’s
plays like The Chronicles of Narnia. Dan Palma, who taught drama at
the time, also let some of the Middle School kids get involved with
the big musicals the Upper School students performed, and I loved
that. It was great to work with older kids and be part of something that
was shared with the whole school. We also had a wonderful chorus
teacher, Tamara Stevenson, who directed competition plays, and I got
a lot out of doing that as well.
For me, and for many of my
classmates, the availability of all
of those options and the fact that
we were able to immerse ourselves
in drama so fully as young artists
was very formative. It felt like we
were really encouraged and that
our enthusiasm was celebrated.
As a result, a surprising number of
us—at least 10 that I can count—
22
S P R I N G 2 017
The Highlander
have gone on to have careers in the arts, many
with considerable success. Monique Coleman
(Taylor in High School Musical), Manish Dayal
(recent roles in The Hundred-Foot Journey and
Halt and Catch Fire) and Harry Katzman have
all done well in TV and/or film, while Josh Leib
has had a distinguished career as a TV writer.
What opportunities do current
students have to get involved with
the Heathwood drama program?
For Lower School students, there are the
Kindergarten play and the 2nd grade play.
Middle School students put on a spring play
each year, while Upper School students
can participate in our one-act plays, which
are performed on campus and in statewide
competition. Both Middle and Upper School
students take part in the fall musical, which
typically features 50-55 student actors as
well as 10 or more backstage workers.
What impresses you about the
students you work with?
Honestly, just so much. The students
who choose to get involved in theatre
at Heathwood are so committed and so
“I’m continually
impressed by
the talents and
the work ethic
of our students.”
supportive of each other—and I see that
supportiveness playing out in other areas of
their lives as well. I feel like that’s something
we really encourage at Heathwood.
I also see over and over that our students
are capable of so much, and that they rise to
the occasion so gracefully whenever they’re
asked to—or even without being asked. So I
just want to keep challenging them more.
I’m always struck by how welcoming
the Upper School kids are to the younger
ones, which creates a fun and supportive
environment for art to happen in.
And I’m continually impressed by the
talents and the work ethic of our students. For
example, several Middle School kids ran the
boards for the musical and they did a great job.
They have such an intuitive understanding of
technology. I have a great group of tech kids.
And the students involved in the Upper
School one-acts last year turned in such
amazing performances at the PDA/SC
Thespians High School Drama Festival,
including superior ratings for individual
acting, student directing, and their overall
performance. Two of our students were even
honored with college scholarships. There are
600-800 students competing at that festival,

from public and independent schools all
across the state. For our students to shine
that brightly really is a reason to be proud.
What might people be surprised to know
about Heathwood’s drama program?
I don’t think it’s any surprise that our student
actors and techies put in a ton of time for each
show, but they’re not the only ones. It takes
so much support to put on productions at
the level we want to achieve at Heathwood—
where we’re really trying to create the
world the characters are living in, so it feels
absolutely real to our audience. That takes
a tremendous amount of work on costumes
and props and choreography and more.
For The Music Man alone, we needed more
than 100 costumes. None of that would be
possible without a huge amount of help from
some really dedicated parent volunteers.
For example, when our usual choreographer
wasn’t available for The Music Man, Danyele
Gardner, whose son John David was in the
play, stepped in and did an amazing job. And
we owe so many of our wonderful costumes
and props to past parents like Kim Davant,
Janet Noble, and Jacqueline Finklea.

Speaking of long hours—if your students
and volunteers are logging them, then
obviously so are you. What do you find
especially rewarding about working
with Heathwood’s drama students?
There’s so much about my job that’s
rewarding. In artistic discipline, there’s just
a lot of heart. The kids love what they’re
doing and want to be here. And of course, I
love this art form, and sharing it with them
is so exciting. It’s a joy to work with them,
because they are so willing to try new things.
There’s no right or wrong in the arts, and
many students relish that kind of gray area.
I felt so at home in the arts when I was
a Heathwood student, and many of the
students I work with now say the same thing,
that it feels to them like a safe environment
to take risks and express themselves.
That is a wonderful thing to be a part of.

working here
is the people,”
Carrie, a native of Columbia, had lived
in New Jersey for 33 years before being
summoned home to take care of her
mother, who had health issues including
Alzheimer’s. “I came back to take care
of Mama. I would do it again the same
way if I had to. That was my sweet Mama.
You don’t get but one of those.” Carrie
lovingly cared for her mother for 11 years.
After her mother passed away last year,
her brother, Arthur Price, who has been a
Heathwood employee for 30-plus years
as a bus driver and mechanic, encouraged
her to get a job at Heathwood. “He told
me I was going to like it, and after my
mom had passed, he didn’t want me to
stay in the house. He said, ‘Let’s see if
we can get you a job at Heathwood.’”
“It’s a good place to work. I enjoy it very
much. I like what I’m doing, and I do the
same thing I’d do at home, so I might as well
get paid for it. I don’t have anyone breathing
down my neck and I know what I’m
supposed to do and I get it done. That makes
a big difference. That makes me want to do
more to make it better. I dust the tops of
things in the library and around the building.
I don’t like dust so I take care of that. My kids
say I have OCD but I don’t,” she laughed.
Carrie loves to bowl, though she
hasn’t had time to since she moved back
from New Jersey. “I used to bowl five
days a week, Monday through Friday. I
league subbed on Fridays and Sundays. I
bowled all over the state. I got money
and trophies and stuff,” she said.
Her bowling average was 178. “My highest
game I bowled was 298. I’ll never forget that
night. I made the papers that day!” she said.
When she’s not keeping the Campus
Center sparkling clean, Carrie likes to
cook for her family, and Arthur grows the
greens that she cooks. “Arthur grows
collards all over his front yard. He is
generous with them, too. And he grows
cabbages in five-gallon buckets,” she
said. “The cabbages grow bigger than the
buckets—I wonder what is in that soil?”
Carrie enjoys cooking for large crowds.
“My family loves my oyster dressing, my
mac and cheese from scratch—with fresh
eggs and I make the roux. And I always
serve my family greens. They won’t eat
unless I’ve got something green. I like
kale, and mustard, and collard greens.”
While Carrie is a whiz in the kitchen with
the greens, she
confesses to

Life is good. Life is even
better at Heathwood for
our students, teachers,
and parents. We often
fail to stop and recognize
when things are going well
in life, but now is one of
those times. Enrollment
is increasing, curriculums
and extracurricular
programs are being
expanded and enhanced,
and athletics are becoming even more competitive
thanks to generous investments and dedicated coaches.
Heathwood has a renewed focus on alumni engagement,
starting with the creation of an Alumni Committee and
the hiring of Julie Benoit, our new Alumni Relations
Coordinator. Julie is going to be a great resource for us, as
her passion for Heathwood is equally as impressive as her
background and qualifications. Please let this short note
serve as an inspiration to connect back with Heathwood
in some way. We want to hear from you! Please send us
class notes about yourself or fellow classmates, keep your
