Windward Fall Preview

From the Head of SchoolEvery Fall, we invite parents to follow their child’s schedule during “Back to School

Night,” providing an opportunity to hear first-hand from faculty members aboutplans for the upcoming year. It is a great chance to supplement those little tidbits ofinformation – probably gleaned bit-by-bit during your dinner-table conversations –with more in-depth detail. But there’s even more to share about our many innovativeand exciting plans that will have an impact on students both inside and outside ofthe classroom.

That’s why, in this Fall Preview, we’ll be providing you with updates on programsthat are continuing in their development and highlighting new ideas that will help thelearning experience at Windward perpetually evolve. The partnership I have with ourtalented faculty and dedicated administrative team has continuously given rise to evenbetter ways to prepare our students for the future – even to prepare them for careersand challenges that may not even yet exist.

Whether studying Challenge Success to increase student engagement (pg. 9),building a Performing Arts program that will make Windward a home for creativeminds (pg. 4), or forging a Networking and Entrepreneurship Initiative to encouragepioneering exploration (pg. 10), we are constantly seeking out the best ways toensure that a Windward education remains truly dynamic and relevant for all.

As you will see in the pages that follow, there is much to be excited about in the2013-2014 school year. Advances are made on our many plans every day, so be sure tovisit our website – www.windwardschool.org – and social media channels for the latestnews and information. And after reading this Fall Preview, I hope you are as proud as Iam to be a part of the Windward Community at this time in our School’s history.

Here’s to a fantastic year!

CulinArt came to campus inAugust, and reviews so far have been overwhelmingly positive.Students, faculty, and staff appreciate the increased quality andselection of food; the new, more exciting menus; extendedservice hours throughout the day; and the option to choosefrom several different eateries. The improved structure andlayout of the dining areas has provided students with manyseating options and shorter lines.

Upgraded Security MeasuresMaking sure students, parents, employees, and visitors feel

as secure as possible every time they step onto the Windwardcampus is a top priority. We have added additional securitystaff, established a formal visitor check-in process, and areinstalling parking kiosks that will monitor the inflow andoutflow of all students, faculty, staff and visitors. We also areinstalling an upgraded safety camera system that providescontinuous visual coverage of Windward's main areas.

A host of other campus improvements – parking lotupgrades, new landscaping – have enhanced the pleasingaesthetic on the Windward campus. From new fields to newfood, all of the School’s operational efforts are focused onimproving usability of our campus space and the quality of theWindward experience.

New Educational Programs andExpanded Offerings

The Middle School Minimester Program and After School Programshave been expanded this year. Last year’s first-ever Minimester trip toWashington D.C. was a huge success. Students will never forget theonce-in-a-lifetime behind the scenes tours of the White House and StateDepartment and the opportunity to watch oral arguments in theSupreme Court followed by a private, 30-minute question and answersession with Chief Justice Roberts.

In addition to offering the Washington D.C. trip this year, Minimesterwill be going global with a trip to Costa Rica focusedon studying animal and plant habitats. The trip will take studentsthrough the different ecosystems of Poas Volcano and the lush Sarapiqui forest to our final destination of Earth University, wherestudents will participate in hands-on workshops that include organic farming, integrated recycling, urban agriculture, and bananaproduction. The trip will conclude with a rainforest canopy tour from above via ziplines for the more adventurous!

Windward also expanded After School Programs course selections. The WRED Dance and Adventures in Broadcasting Programswere wonderful additions last year. This year, we added the Middle School Visual Arts Workshop, an after-school enrichment programthat is designed to inspire and challenge our most talented and passionate young artists in the seventh and eighth grades, primarilyin the areas of painting, drawing, printmaking, and 2D design. The program will culminate with a gallery exhibit of student work forparents and friends to see. We have also added the Middle School Theater Workshop, a program for our most passionate seventh andeighth grade thespians. Students will be creating their own original script for a musical in the fall and a sketch show in the spring.They will then rehearse and perform the shows for an audience.

We are thrilled to announce an exciting new Upper Schoolelectives program for the 2013-2014 school year. After muchresearch and discussion, we have decided to redesign theexisting Period 8 program to encourage more students toparticipate in engaging, innovative, and dynamic academiccourses that will support their personal growth and fuel theiracademic and extracurricular interests. It is our goal to retainthe spirit of the Period 8 program while meeting the changingneeds of our 21st century learners.

The Upper School Electives will be year long, graded coursesoffered during period 8 two times a week. Students will receivea grade and a ½ course credit on their Windward transcript.These courses will not have midterms or final exams. They areavailable to all Upper School students in grades 9-12, but arenot required. The Upper School Electives program is a

wonderful opportunity for a student who is developing a passion in a certain subject area to delve further into that area of study orfor a student who is curious about one of the intriguing topics offered to have a chance within his/her schedule to explore and learnwithout the pressures of a full-time course. The ten exciting, new electives are:

• Intro to Improvisational Theater• Advanced Improvisational Theater• Speech and Debate• Terrorism in the Modern World

• Global Ethics—Why Should We Care?• Advanced Spanish Grammar

and Conversation• 3-D Digital Design

• Creative Writing• The Imperiled Environments of

the World’s Oceans• Game Design for iOS.

Performing Arts InitiativeThe arts have always been an essential component of a Windward education. Whether mastering a musical instrument or

performing in a play or dance ensemble, our students are not only creating art, they are preparing for life. The arts serve as a mirrorthrough which our students examine themselves and their culture. The creativity that is sparked in our students enables them topursue diverse careers that rely on discovery, planning, research, critical thinking, problem solving, invention, and innovation. We arepreparing a future generation of citizens who will be culturally literate and who will appreciate and support the arts because theyunderstand the importance of the arts in a civilized society.

Despite the vitality of Windward’s performingarts programs and the accomplishments of ourstudents, faculty, and alumni, the performing artshave yet to reach their full potential as a laboratoryfor emerging talent. Through our newly createdPerforming Arts Initiative we plan to bring thesame level of innovation to the arts that we did tothe sciences. We plan to expand the breadth andthe depth of our performing arts programs so thatour students can fully explore their artistic passionsand hone their skills. This initiative also requiresresearch into what types of facilities will bestsupport the growth of our Performing Arts and bestdisplay the talent of our students.

Already, two outside spaces have been secured, so please save the date!

• Monday, December 16, 2013The Choral Group Performs at the Clive Davis Theater at the Grammy Museum

• Friday, January 24, 2014Windward Dance Company Performs at the Freud Theater at UCLA featuring top guest dancers and a conversation withProducer Jennifer Gibgot ’87 & Director & Choreographer Adam Shankman

Through the Initiative, we will provide increased opportunities for students tolearn from professional artists, establish partnerships that can lead tointernships and mentorships, and use the Windward Network to help students asthey become alumni and college graduates to pursue their performing artscareers. In the past few years we have seen an influx of talented, dedicatedstudent artists. The Performing Arts Initiative expands and invigorates ourperforming arts programming, creating curriculum, performance opportunities,and facilities to best prepare our students for future education and careers in thearts. Windward’s Performing Arts Initiative also provides a creative, challenging,and nurturing environment that offers the highest quality of instruction to everystudent; for both the bright and talented student coming to experience the pureenjoyment and appreciation of the arts and those seeking unparalleledpreparation for higher education and beyond. Now is the time to turn our focusto the performing arts to ensure that Windward student-artists both have theopportunity to benefit from a nationally prominent program and think ofWindward as their “home” for the arts.

Visual Arts InitiativeIn addition to the Performing Arts, the Visual Arts Department is hard at work in developing its program. The department, led by

Chair Jeff Miller, has engaged a consultant to review its curriculum and align it with what students who want to pursue the visual artsin college and professionally need in order to be successful. The Visual Arts Department will also be engaging guest artists to come tocampus and work with our students. By working with professionals in these fields, students will be able to discover and practice theskills needed to work at the highest level. In addition, the Visual Arts Department is looking at spaces off-campus to showcase studentwork. By creating opportunities for students to take their art work out to be seen by the public, we will make our students and ourprogram more visible to the public.

Global ProgramsWe are proud that Windward’s Global Program now includes 28 Global Scholars (students who

have applied for and been accepted into a program of specialized study on global issues), 24students in the Global Online Academy, and 35 students in the 10th grade Global Studies Honorscourse. Throughout the global program, students are challenged to tackle complex global issuesthrough multiple perspectives, innovative solutions, and collaborative problem solving.Windward’s emphasis on both global content (i.e. world languages, world cultures, global issues)and global skills (i.e. those that are necessary to succeed in an interconnected world such aspublic speaking, technological fluency, collaboration) is a hallmark of the program that sets itapart from similar global programs at other leading independent schools.

We are also excited to announce two groundbreaking university partnerships that will expandthe learning opportunities for our students. Working collaboratively with USC and the Universityof Queensland, we have taken Windward’s global program beyond the classroom in ways that wenever expected when we began to build this program three years ago and offer world-classlearning facilities and opportunities for our students.

• First, the 10th grade Global Studies students have already experienced the research and historical expertise of USC’s ShoahFoundation in the study of the Rwandan genocide. This partnership will continue, with Windward invited to be a USC ShoahFoundation Partner School. As a USC Shoah Foundation Partner School, Windward students will utilize the vast USC historicaldatabases, USC’s world-class faculty, and USC’s global network that includes a research base in Kingali, Rwanda and first-handaccess to interview and study Rwandan refugees.

• Second, this past spring, a team of faculty that included Peggy Procter, Eryn Hoffman, and Tom Haglund ventured downunder to the University of Queensland (UQ), in Brisbane, Australia, to develop a partnership with UQ’s Center for EducationalInnovation and the Research Partnerships Office. This exploratory trip was the first step in what will become a long-termcollaboration between Windward seniors and UQ faculty and students. We expect to send almost 30 Windward seniors to theUniversity of Queensland in Australia in the spring of 2015 to engage in university-level fieldwork and research at UQ’s HeronIsland Research Station, located in the middle of the Great Barrier Reef with first-class, research-grade labs and equipment.Our students will study the impacts of globalization and climate change on marine life using these incredible resources.

iPads 2.0In 2012-13, we piloted a 1-to-1 iPad program

in the eighth grade. This was not done simply toequip students and teachers with new gadgets;considerable planning was undertaken toincorporate new technology in ways that makesense from a pedagogical standpoint. Continuingdeep research into best practices and emergingtrends allowed our faculty to redesign the learningexperiences of students in ways that would enablethem to be more active, engaged learners, criticalthinkers, and innovative problem solvers.

In 2013-14, we have taken this program to anew level by adding iPads to the seventh and ninthgrade experience. In order to center and groundthe program, we have created the following goals:

For students: Teaching 21st Century Skills• Technological Fluency: Students will evaluate, effectively use, and adapt to changing technologies.• Self-Regulated Learning: Students use iPad apps to take control of, and understand their own learning through planning,

monitoring, and reflecting on their own progress and learning process.• Creativity: Students will have the opportunity to experiment with a variety of outcomes due to the nature of iPad technology—

the ability to go back and analyze the success of any one option allows for flexibility and revision in project creation.• Collaboration: Students will use electronic platforms and a variety of roles and responsibilities to complete group

assignments and projects. They will use the iPad to improve efficiency and quality of collaboration.

For teachers:• Active Learning: Teachers will promote technological fluency, self-regulated learning, creativity, and collaboration in order

contribute to a dynamic learning environment.• Cognitive Considerations When Teaching with Technology: Teachers will understand the complications and opportunities that

technology brings to the learning environment and adapt their teaching as necessary.

Throughout this year, the CTL will continue to lead the training on iPads and will work to create an assessment plan. There will bemonthly faculty workshops for the current 1-to-1 faculty, as well as training for the tenth through twelfth grade faculty on iPad basics andexplore the possibilities of teaching with the iPad. Students in the Middle School will have several special advisory sessions to helpthem focus on organization, one of the main issues that arose last year. Finally, the CTL is exploring ways to assess the iPad program thatmoves beyond surveys.

Teachers are continually finding new ways to incorporate iPads in their classrooms in order to enhance student learning. Forexample, Eric Mandel, Dirk Binkley, and Jim Bologna collaborated to create a new e-textbook for the Seventh Grade Introduction toAmerican Government class. This text, which replaced the traditional paper textbook, is custom designed for the course, containsmultimedia features to supplement the text, is provided to students free of charge, and does not add any additional weight to backpacks.

STEAM Programs:We are thrilled as a growing number of students are

benefiting from our efforts in STEAM, with over 70 studentsinvolved in the STEAM Scholars Program, as well as developingpartnerships and expanding opportunities on campus forall students. Our students were lucky enough to be the firstpre-collegiate students to learn about creativity, teamwork,and leadership from the experts at Disney, which was aresounding success.

Last spring, Windward forged a partnership with AECOM,a global leader in architecture, energy, transportation, andcivil engineering, to allow our students to learn by workingwith experts in these disciplines. We're ecstatic to build on thesuccess of June’s internship program by offering this amazingopportunity to even more students again this summer.

Windward has also recently partnered with Purdue University and their EPICS High program to offer human-centered designservice learning opportunities for our students. In this first year, the tenth and eleventh grade STEAM advisories and theenvironmental engineering class will engage students in engineering projects through community service, with plans to integratesimilar, authentic learning experiences in more STEAM classes in the future.

In order to realize these goals, ourstudents will learn 21st century engineeringskills and gain experience with complexdesign problems that involve all STEAMelements. We recently began offering a 3Ddesign class taught by a practicing architect,Erin Lani. Students in this course will acquire3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) skillsapplicable to a wide range of engineeringand design challenges. Now a variety ofstudents - from engineering, technicaltheater and art - will be able to realize their3D designs with an assortment of versatile 3Dprinters made by a Pasadena areamanufacturer, Deezmaker. This fall, in apartnership with Deezmaker, we will trainseveral of our faculty to use these machinesso that our students can begin producing 3Ddesigns by January.

This year in robotics, we have swelled the ranks of our three programs to over 60 students and added a third coach to the team,Karalyn Ramon. Finally, we will be hosting a Lego Robotics contest this November and we hope to host an additional VEX Roboticscontest in the late spring. Through these events, our added programs, tools and partnerships we strive to solidify Windward’sreputation as a premier STEAM school.

The Center for Teaching & Learning (CTL) and The Windward Institute:Pursuing Ongoing Educational Research

The Windward Institute is charged with looking outward for inspiration, while the CTL focuses on the internal needs of theschool. The significant partnership between these unique perspectives advances the Mission and Strategic Plan of Windward. TheWindward Institute is focused this year on building a database of potential university, business, and government partners, seekingthe best emerging practices at the university and business levels. The Institute works to ensure that our students demonstrate thecreative problem solving, communication, and technological skills that they will need to succeed in our ever-changing world.

This year, the Institute is looking to universities such as Stanford, Harvard, USC, Bowdoin, Babson, and Northwestern as leadersin innovative approaches to student learning. The CTL will be working with the Windward Institute this year to help further its workon instructional innovation, especially examining the possibilities that ePortfolios, experiential learning, and entrepreneurialpartnerships offer our students. In addition, the CTL’s working group on Information Literacy will be beginning to look foruniversity partners and best practices to align with and thus will be looking to have the Windward Institute help facilitateconnections for them.

Counseling Office and Challenge SuccessLast spring, Windward was accepted as a member school

in the Challenge Success Program, a project of StanfordUniversity’s Graduate School of Education. The ChallengeSuccess Program is focused on finding research-based solutionsto increase student engagement in middle and upper schoolswithout increasing the stress and pressure that students feel.Participation in this program will help Windward to continueto look at best practices both in and out of the classroom.

In May of 2013, students in grades 7 through 12participated in a survey designed to help Windwardbenchmark progress toward our goals related to studentengagement, student health and well-being, and themaintenance of a truly nurturing community. In early

October, a team of nine faculty, administrators, and students traveled to Palo Alto to participate in a Challenge Success conference.This is just the beginning of our work, and in the coming school year, participants will attend conferences at Stanford, conductresearch, and work closely with a School of Education coach. We will continue to gather data and, ultimately, return to Stanford fora second conference in the spring of 2014.

Studio for Writing and RhetoricThis year the Studio for Writing and Rhetoric begins its second year serving student writers at Windward. We began the year in

August with an intensive two-day training session for our 12 new peer tutors. Windward's peer tutor training program, already one ofthe best and most innovative in the country, was revised extensively based on our experience last year. Students read extensively fromscholarly literature on peer tutoring and participated actively in role-playing scenarios where they learned to deal with differentsituations that arise in the writing studio. Most importantly, students learned to reflect on their own writing process and anticipatehow to best help a diverse student body with students who have different ways of approaching the writing process.

The Studio for Writing and Rhetoric aims to serve all studentwriters at Windward, from 7th graders working on a one-paragraph essay to seniors developing extensive researchpapers. In 2012-13, the writing studio served over 100 students.In an end-of-year survey, students gave the studio a 4.1 out of 5when asked to rank their satisfaction.

This year we hope to build upon that success in three ways.One, we will be working closely with individual facultymembers and department chairs to develop plans toincorporate use of the writing studio into writing assignments.Two, we will redouble efforts to educate the student bodyabout the role the writing studio can play in helping themdevelop into better writers. And three, we want to make aneffort to encourage more use of the studio by all academicdepartments, including science, the arts, and athletics.

The Entrepreneurship & Windward Network InitiativeGiven the ever-changing nature of the world today, students must be flexible

problem solvers and creative innovators. Windward is building anentrepreneurship program to help our students construct new knowledge, createpioneering solutions, and to think “outside the box.” Windward is uniquely poisedto implement an entrepreneurship program. Creativity, problem-solving, and goal-oriented risk-taking, all key components to a successful entrepreneurshipeducation, are part of Windward’s institutional DNA.

Already, Windward offers students experiences outside of the classroom thatreinforce adaptive skills, including the UCLA-Bain Business Case Competition, theBuy it on the Bridge events, and internship opportunities, such as the one lastsummer with AECOM, the second largest engineering company in the world.

This year, we plan to build on that success and research best practices andemerging trends in entrepreneurship at universities and in business to launchprograms, real-world experiences, and internship and mentoring opportunitiesthat help students develop the skills and cultivate a mindset that prepares themfor the next stage of their educational journey and for the world of tomorrow.Expanded opportunities for experiential learning will be offered this year as wellas additional experts and speakers coming to campus to provide their guidanceand advice to students.

The Windward Network is a natural partner for the Entrepreneurship Program. The Windward Network strives to build lifelongconnections and opportunities among the entire Windward Community – parents, students, parents of alumni, alumni, andgrandparents – that:

• Provide career support through all professional stages• Support the ongoing pursuit of knowledge• Serve as resources for personal lives

A student and his or her family’s connection with the school do not end at graduation. Through the Windward Network, anongoing relationship that provides value will develop. Resources and opportunities appropriate for each stage of a person’s life willbe available. For our most recent alumni, The Network will offer hands-on mentoring and networking guidance as well as invitationsto affinity group and general networking events.

Already this year, the Alumni Program reached out to graduates from the Classes of ’08 & ’09 to better understand their currentcareer circumstances and their future goals. Remarkably, 80% of the responders are presently in their desired field. What’s more, welearned that the top industries for the group are business/finance, Entertainment, STEAM, and Education.

This data will be used to create the plans for this year. We will focus on broadening the research of our alumni base; launch threeaffinity groups – Entertainment, STEAM and Business/Finance; and host events for each group. In addition, we will provide hands-oncareer support for our seniors through the Senior Experience by helping secure internships, hosting resume-building workshops, andholding mock interviews, all designed to help them be better prepared for their first professional experience.

The top industries of theresponders are:

1. Finance/Business: 20%2. Entertainment: 14%3. Education: 12%4. STEAM: 11%

Diversity and InclusivityGeraldine Loveless and Tammy Clem are working

this year to build upon the excellent work thatAlesia Young has done over the past several yearswith diversity at Windward. Students, parents,faculty, staff, and administration are joining theirefforts to continue this work.

In addition to new leadership, the work, events,and groups previously known as “Diversity” havebeen renamed to “Inclusivity.” There is muchdiscussion in the realm of diversity about theperception of these two terms, and ultimately“Inclusivity” addresses the responsibility of everyperson within our community to be respectful,understanding, and nurturing. Windward has made great strides throughout the years toward improving diversity on campus. Everyperson (those who self-identify as diverse, and those who do not) is a part of the community and has a deep responsibility to ensurethat it is inclusive of all of its members.

Community members worked together to bring several exciting events designed to improve diversity to Windward last year. In thespring, a group of faculty working together on the Diversity Task Force began to look at how best to continue the work of making ourcommunity ever more inclusive and open minded for students, parents, faculty, and staff. The Inclusivity Task Force is continuing tomeet and preparing to facilitate the faculty in-service in March, with a focus on interpersonal interactions, classroom dynamics, andcurricular choices.

The spring also brought the creation of an official student group on campus, the Student Diversity Leadership group, which consistsof students especially committed to improving the inclusivity of our community through events, awareness, and support. This studentgroup sprang out of the experience of two students who attended the NAIS Student Diversity Leadership (SDL) Conference last winter, andis advised by Ernie Levroney and Geraldine. This year, we are planning to send four students and two faculty members to the conference.

Last year, the Gay-Straight Alliance student group hosted two movie nights on campus, as well as several other events to increaseawareness of LGBT issues, while providing support to LGBT students and straight allies. This year, the GSA will continue to organizespecial events on campus, provide student leadership opportunities and community educational events, and host three movie nightson campus, sponsored by the GSA and the SDL.

In addition to the SDL Conference (for student leaders) and the People of Color Conference (for adult leaders), we are looking atother opportunities to best inform our practices and program at Windward, including working with consultant Dr. Corey Olds andconference opportunities for faculty and students related to identity, diversity, gender, and privilege.

As well as participating actively at school celebrations such as Homecoming and Founder’s Day, the Inclusivity Program willprovide the community with several opportunities to build inclusivity through special events, such as the Fall Welcome, the WinterBowl, the International Party Book Party, and guest speakers on diversity and inclusivity. There will be monthly meetings of theInclusivity program in order to plan and prepare for events, and to provide a consistent space for community members to cometogether to talk about how to address and improve inclusivity on campus.
