[but] let’s not forget the joy of receiving a handwritten note, or having a cup of tea with someone . . . ” Teach them what they need to know for life. (Saint Julie Billiart) You’ll hear these words frequently at NDA. From our earliest days, Saint Julie’s words have guided program planning in Notre Dame schools. It is important to us to make sure that our students graduate from NDA with the skills and knowledge necessary to be productive members of society in the 21st century. Among the many necessary skills today is the proper use of technology. Electronic devices have put the world at our fingertips and have made communication instantaneous. Keeping up with the growth of technology is certainly a challenge for every school. Equipment is always being upgraded and there is always something new on the horizon. And it’s all very expensive. But more difficult than keeping up materially is the challenge of staying out front ethically. Because we are a faith community as well as an academic institution, we can also address these challenges. All kinds of information are readily available to today’s students and so it is important to teach how to evaluate or analyze the material they are using. It is easy to jump to conclusions quickly and make judgments assuming that the information you have is correct or is the full story. What news sources are credible and what is shown or shared primarily for the shock value? It is also important to have a balanced approach to research. Do you ever wonder what Emily Post would say to us today about the use of technology and etiquette? Or do you wonder what the word “privacy” means today? We’ve all been at special occasions when someone’s phone starts to ring, or we’ve been stuck on a train near someone carrying on endless conversations. You never know today if someone is taking a picture of you and then, where that picture might show up. And I am always saddened when I see two or three people sitting together in a restaurant and, rather than talking to each other, they are texting someone else. Yes, technology has given us amazing tools that can be used to advance the good in society. We have a better understanding of what is going on around the world. We are connected in ways that were not possible a century ago. At the same time, let’s not forget the joy of receiving a handwritten note, or having a cup of tea with someone who is really listening to us. Merry Christmas to all our NDA friends!

Vita Winter '13_Layout 4 12/3/13 12:43 PM Page 2 from Main Street news | events | accolades It’s a Girl Thing Body Image Expert on Campus The Global Girl We were thrilled to welcome award-winning author Kjerstin Gruys to campus in September. Gruys is the author of Mirror Mirror Off the Wall: How I Learned to Love My Body by Not Looking at It for a Year. Her powerful story examines body image and society’s definition of beauty. In a presentation to the students, she shared stories about her own eating disorder and how she thinks the media and fashion industry impact how we feel about our bodies. She said, “We spend a lot of time looking at perfect images in the media. But perfect is hard to love. For me, lovable is the combination of kindness and quirks that make you unique!” e presentation was so well received by the students that they kept raising their hands to ask more questions after the bell rang. Above left: After her presentation, Gruys joined students in the library for a book signing. Above right: Seniors Jena Doyle (left) and Briana Tobin-Rosman created the display of student quotes. e International Day of the Girl was a global celebration on October 11 and to mark this day our students reflected on the educational opportunities available to girls around the world. ey viewed e Girl Effect video about the life of women in impoverished countries and Malala Yousafzai’s speech to the United Nations. (Both are worth Googling if you have the chance.) Students were also asked, “What is the value of my education?” eir responses were displayed outside the library and we think you’ll be impressed – check out page 12. value I my education because I will be able to support myself and be independent. — victoria, class of 2014 Vita Winter '13_Layout 4 12/3/13 12:43 PM Page 3 Professional Development focus on the faculty and staff Leaders in Their Field Director of Information Technology Mike Minihane is currently serving a two-year term as the president of the Massachusetts Educational Technology Administrators Association. METAA is the professional organization for K-12 leaders of educational technology in Massachusetts. Its mission is to unite Massachusetts K-12 educational technology administrators into one professional association for the purpose of advocating for and supporting the vision and policies for historical, current, and cutting edge technology within all aspects of teaching. METAA is also the Massachusetts state chapter of the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN) which is the national organization representing technology leaders. Technology teacher Susan Pratt is serving a one-year term as the president of the Massachusetts Business Educators Association, a group representing business educators at the high school and two-year college level. e organization believes students with strong backgrounds in business will become professionals who contribute to the prosperity of their communities. Minihane and Pratt are also featured in our cover story, please see page 6. Science Department Chair Renee Parry attended a one-week program at MIT where professors shared their current science and engineering research and suggested ways to apply it to high school classrooms. She also attended an Advanced Placement conference to review the changes to the AP Physics B curriculum. Science teacher Mary Sabelli attended the Advanced Placement conference to review the curriculum for AP Biology. Spanish teacher Marianne Martin attended a workshop, iPad in the Foreign Language Classroom, hosted by the Bureau of Educational Research. Social Studies teacher Joan Delany took a course, Imperialism in Southeast Asia, offered by the organization Primary Source. World Languages Department Chair Allyson Butler and Mandarin teacher Weiyang Merkel attended the Massachusetts Foreign Language Association conference, which focused on the integration of technology into World Languages curriculum. Science teacher Jana Loux-Turner attended a workshop sponsored by the Harvard Forest program which encourages teachers to initiate hands-on ecology research projects. Principal Kathleen Rowley Colin ’89, Technology teacher Sue Pratt, Director of Guidance and Academic Programming Joan Perrault, eology Department Chair Sister Mary Janice Bartolo, World Languages Department Chair Allyson Butler, and English teacher Andrea Shedlock attended a middle school conference offered through the Association of Independent Schools of New England. Sessions included technology in the classroom, middle school poetry and literature, social-emotional education, and team building. Maureen Meyer, chair of the visual and performing arts department, is enrolled in classes in graphic design, including typography, at Mass College of Art and Design. In conjunction with other Sisters of Notre Dame schools in Massachusetts, the eology and Campus Ministry departments, as well as other staff members, attended a mission integration workshop to discuss what the schools have in common and how each institution can work to enhance the unique mission of Saint Julie and the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. is summer, Science teacher Linda Muller took an online course through e Connecting Link called “Impacting Teaching and Learning with Brain Research.” She learned about techniques she could use in the classroom to help students study for long term retention. focus on women’s health This fall, the co-curricular club Cougars for the Cure initiated programs to raise awareness about ovarian and breast cancer. Announcements were made about the diseases and many sports teams wore teal and pink to bring attention to the cause. Each awareness campaign culminated in a dress down day where students paid $1 to wear their pink and teal sweats. The money went to organizations that find a cure for these two diseases impacting women. vita! winter 2013 | 3 Vita Winter '13_Layout 4 12/3/13 12:43 PM Page 4 from Main Street heritage scholarship raffle Each year, the entire NDA community sells raffle tickets to raise money for the four Heritage Scholarships that support four deserving students who cannot afford the NDA tuition. To keep up the energy and excitement, the campaign included a studentcreated video, prizes for the top homeroom, and a number of fun incentives for students who sold all 15 tickets. Thank you to everyone who bought a ticket and supported the scholarships! i dreamed a dream For the first full musical in the new Cushing Auditorium, the NDA Player’s performed in Les Miserables. The three shows were well attended and the new sound system really showed off the talent of our vocalists! Campus Ministry Director Michelle Kelley loved the show. She said, “My heart soared, sunk and rose again with each song of the musical. I was brought to tears at the end. I felt all of the hard work from each person.” heritage day 2013 Heritage Day, our annual celebration of community, included an amazing Talent Show, PowderPuff football, and a (rainy!) outdoor Liturgy where freshmen were officially welcomed to the community and received their Our Lady of Hingham medals. Above: Spanish teacher Jessica Kiely (in purple) poses with a member of each class. distractology NDA hosted the Distractology program for a week in September. There was a 36-foot-long neon yellow trailer in the parking lot where students could test their driving skills with a simulated driving program. During the training, students faced a number of scenarios – including incoming text messages – to see how they would react. nationally reco gnized We are thrilled to congratulate five seniors who were named Commended Students in the 2014 National Merit Program: Megan Barrett, Christina Berlen, Jenna McKenney, Marisa Teixeira, and Eve Wenger. Commended students placed among the top five percent of more than 1.5 million students who took the Preliminary SAT. college fair One hundred and fifty colleges and universities were on campus for the annual fall college fair. Seniors walked from table to table asking questions and meeting with representatives from schools across the country. Vita Winter '13_Layout 4 12/3/13 12:43 PM Page 5 from Retreats retreats at nda Our robust Campus Ministry program offers a wide array of retreat opportunities to guide students in their personal faith formation. This fall, the Class of 2017 enjoyed their retreat in October and reflected on self, God, and their role in the NDA community. The day included icebreakers, small group discussions, and witness talks by upperclassmen. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors will also hold day-long retreats later in the year. Main Street Mother-Daughter Brunch Mothers, daughters, grandmothers, and aunts packed the Chapel and the Saint Julie Dining Hall for a very special annual gathering. After Liturgy, the group enjoyed brunch and had an opportunity to start their Christmas shopping at a variety of booths set up with jewelry, accessories, home décor and more. Also this fall, juniors and seniors from NDA and B.C. High participated in the Discover Retreat which helps students identify how to apply their unique gifts to their daily decisions and how to listen for the voice of God in their lives. Trips field trip! Students from the Engineering class attended the “Women in Engineering” day at Tufts University. The group learned about majoring in civil, mechanical, environmental, and biomedical engineering. Guest speakers discussed what it was like to work in a male dominated field as well as their particular projects.

Technology in the classroom is transforming learning by meghan rowley little ’92 in ways never before possible. Vita Winter '13_Layout 4 12/3/13 12:43 PM Page 7 “ We are at a crossroads in education, and it is both challenging and invigorating to think about how learning will change in the next few years, or even the next few months.” —CouRTney MuRRay Russillo ’00, enGlish DePaRTMenT ChaiR Invigorating Everywhere you look, technology is there. While some cringe at the impact of modern technology on our lives, others choose to embrace it. Notre Dame Academy recognizes the value and is putting technology to work across all disciplines. Devices and apps work together to expand the classroom experience from a traditional lecture-based format to a creative combination of lecture, digital, and real-time problem solving. “Technology has added a dimension to the classroom that the girls have gravitated to,” Principal Kathleen Rowley Colin ’89 says. “It makes learning so much more exciting — that is their world.” Incorporating a mix of devices, apps, and software into her classes has allowed Russillo’s students to both learn about a specific topic and gain hands-on experience with technology. Last year, one of her assignments was to create a PowerPoint presentation on a famous political artist. e students then converted the PowerPoint into a video using the Explain Everything app. Next, students narrated their videos and posted them on the class page of the student portal so that everyone in the class could listen to each other’s presentations. “By completing this project, students learned and shared their knowledge in a different way,” Russillo explains. Beyond the Text As part of a fellowship through the National Council of Teachers of English, Russillo will be looking at how digital media and digital tools like e-readers impact reading comprehension. Her study will take a comprehensive look at digital literacy at NDA. She says, “We are at a crossroads in education, and it is both challenging and invigorating to think about how learning will change in the next few years, or even the next few months.” Bringing technology to the classroom is critical for college preparation. In order to utilize these tools, however, teachers must first be comfortable operating them. “ere is always a period of growth in terms of learning how to use the technology appropriately while maintaining the desired level of instruction,” Allyson Butler, World Language department chair and Spanish teacher, says. “It is truly a challenging effort that all teachers are currently experiencing in their classrooms.” For Butler, it is time well spent as she sees her students’ classroom experience greatly enhanced. “My ability to access authentic resources, such as newscasts, podcasts, and videos, has grown,” she says. “Students are hearing a variety of dialectal accents from around the world, and at an authentic linguistic pace.” e availability of resources beyond traditional texts and language lab recordings allows teachers like Butler to explore alternative methods of instruction. At NDA, a wide variety of tools are available across curricula. With the help of iPads, Smart Boards, and Apple TVs in every classroom, teachers can get creative and be certain that their students understand the lessons. Courtney Murray Russillo ’00, chair of the English department, believes technology encourages students to own more of the learning experience. “By using iPads and having students research, create, and evaluate in real-time, they are invested in learning because it is an active process.” Technology at Work Renee Parry, Science department chair, has technology working hard in her chemistry, physics, and engineering courses. She uses computer-based measurement equipment to collect real-time data, apps to video and record objects, industry-grade engineering modeling software, and apps to record chemistry lab measurements. Parry also relies on virtual labs that run on Java for her physics classes. “e University of Colorado has an extensive set of virtual labs that enable our students to conduct experiments that may not be feasible in the classroom setting,” she explains. ese tools are beneficial to both teacher and student, particularly for ensuring that each student understands the lesson. In Parry’s chemistry classes, students use the Notability app to record lab measurements through photographs and annotations and then submit them electronically. “e students love this method of documenting labs because they enjoy the creativity inherent in the iPad.” Parry says. By recording lab work with photographs, she is able to review each student’s work and be sure they used every gauge correctly and recorded data precisely. vita! winter 2013 | 7 Vita Winter '13_Layout 4 12/3/13 12:43 PM Page 8 Cover story “you might expect that [students] be consumed by their own screen, but the contrary is true. They eagerly share their work with their peers and are very comfortable asking questions about each others’ work.” — R e n e e Pa R Ry, s C i e n C e D e Pa R T M e n T C h a i R There’s an app for That There are more apps out there than most of us know what to do with, but NDA has identified key productivity apps which are on all iPads: 30 Hands Pages Numbers Keynote iMovie Explain Everything Notability Other apps which teachers have used include: Book Press Book Creator Educreations Explain Everything Garage Band iTalk Readdle Shakespeare Science 360 Socrative TedTalks Vernier Video Parry also likes to conduct in-class surveys of her students’ comprehension of material, asking students to open their class website on their iPads and type their answer into a pre-made survey box. “I can immediately see their responses on my computer or iPad without the class seeing the results,” she says. “is way I can assess in real-time how each student is doing in our lesson and make adjustments in the instruction to ensure all students get the support they need.” In a similar way, Parry uses Apple TV to review and share students’ work, particularly model drawings. “e iPad enables students to draw science models — anything from atoms and cells to thermodynamic heat engines — with more creativity,” she says. “e ease with which they can create colorful, meaningful models greatly improves the students’ engagement, giving them a more conducive mental state for retention of information.” With the addition of Apple TV, a student can instantly project her drawing for the class to see with just one swipe of her finger. “In every lesson in which I have incorporated the iPad, students naturally collaborate,” Parry says. “You might expect that they be consumed by their own screen, but the contrary is true. ey eagerly share their work with their peers and are very comfortable asking questions about each others’ work.” Flipping the Classroom e flipped classroom model is on the rise with the continued implementation of technology. In this teaching model the traditional lecture and homework elements are flipped. Students watch short video lectures or related clips at home prior to the class. en, class time is devoted to problem solving, projects, and discussions. is approach offers a number of benefits for the student. First, the student can learn at her own pace and at a time of her choosing. Also, if the pace of a video is too fast, she can pause it or rewind to listen to complicated portions as many times as she needs. “e idea is a paradigm shift in education,” Michael Minihane, Director of Information Technology says. NDA has applications, such as 30 Hands Learning, in place to help faculty easily implement modern teaching techniques, such as video lectures, in conjunction with traditional teaching methods. Minihane says, “We don’t want to have strictly an online learning model; we want to have a blended learning model.” Several teachers at NDA incorporate the flipped classroom model into their classes with positive results. Mathematics teacher Chris Bianchi uses it for all of his classes. “My classes run the whole educational spectrum, from traditional lecture to collaborative learning to discovery learning to the flipped classroom,” he says. “I believe that different topics lend themselves to different methods of presentation, and I believe that different students will respond to different modes of instruction.” Because students have watched the lecture before coming to class, they are mentally prepared for the topic. Bianchi says he can break students into groups at the start of class and work that way for most of the period. “By contrast, in a traditional lecture format, I might only be able to give the students five minutes at the end of class to work in groups,” he says. “With the flipped classroom, group work becomes a much more prominent component of the course, and many students find the group work to be both helpful and enjoyable.” Students are also taking advantage of the flipped classroom model. In Sue Pratt’s global financial systems classes, students use iPads to create voice annotated video presentations of their final projects. She shares, “Students create videos of themselves presenting marketing plans to potential investors on the Explain Everything app and post them in 30 Hands for their classmates to watch at home. Our time in class allows for richer collaboration and more thorough peer review. ey truly learn from each other.” Pratt notes that it is easy to archive the videos and she expects many students will be better prepared for college business classes which often take a student-centered approach. Vita Winter '13_Layout 4 12/3/13 12:43 PM Page 9 MoRe Than CanDy CRush & snaPChaT* Blended Teenagers and their mobile devices are never far from each other, but you might be surprised to learn just what they are up to. The iPad has enhanced my learning through a more hands-on experience and has helped me find more creative ways to make presentations. I am taking Mandarin this year and there are so many helpful apps on the iPad to practice writing my characters. CASEY CALLAHAN ’14 Dynamic Discussion JULIA MADDEN ’15 Sister Mary Janice Bartolo, SNDdeN, agrees. She, like Bianchi, uses the flipped classroom model as just one of many teaching methods in her eology classes and she considers it very valuable. “Students in general are more participative, as they have had time to process and consider the questions they want to raise,” she says. She believes this model, in the way she is using it, promotes critical thinking skills. “I find it is good for the girls to grapple with the concepts first, with some guidance from my PowerPoints or notes,” Bartolo says. “What they then bring to the table of discussion is more enriching with some thought put into it prior to class.” Using 30 Hands for geometry makes learning so much easier because my teacher posts videos which explain the materials very clearly. It helps me have a better understanding of what I am learning. In physics class I was able to perform a lab on velocity by using an app called Vernier Video Analysis. I created position and velocity graphs for my data, which made learning more fun and the project was easier to understand. KEELY COYNE ’16 ANA GALLOTTO ’14 For Bartolo, the greatest benefit of the flipped classroom is the increased time she has to engage with her students. Recently, she assigned two video clips and an article relating to International Day of the Girl to watch and read at home. “When we next met, we had the most amazing discussion on the plight of girls in other cultures based on their watching and reflecting on e Girl Effect and Malala Yousafzai’s speech at the United Nations,” she says. “It opened up discussion about other cultures and practices, the impact education can have on women and society in the broader context, as well as reflecting on the idea of forgiveness, compassion, and courage.” In the past, Bartolo would have taken class time to view the videos, but she found this approach allowed for a much richer experience for the students. With the explosion of so many new tools to share and access knowledge, Notre Dame’s teachers and students are transforming learning in ways that have never before been possible. NDA is committed to embracing technology and what future digital resources may offer. Colin says, “Whenever you can re-energize a classroom with a new approach to teaching and learning, the outcome is only positive.” *For those of us not under 25 . . . Candy Crush is Facebook’s most popular puzzle app with 46 million average monthly users. The Snapchat app is a social media platform where users snap a photo or a video, add a caption, and send it to a friend. a BlenDeD leaRninG MoDel Director of Information Technology Mike Minihane notes that the Academy’s implementation of iPads, Smart Boards, and other technologies in the classroom is the result of careful and thoughtful planning. “Our emphasis has always been on enhancing teaching and learning and not just on the latest technology and new devices. It is important that new tools be integrated into teaching and learning and not layered on top of the curriculum.” This intentional approach allows teachers to experiment in the classroom, develop best practices, and thoughtfully add new technology to the curriculum. Minihane knows that building the comfort level of the faculty is critical. “Not everyone is going to adopt and change their classes overnight. It is a gradual process and it is important to provide training and professional development opportunities to ensure success.” For Minihane, access to the latest technology is a reflection of the Academy’s mission and Saint Julie’s directive to “Teach whatever is necessary to equip the students for life…” Resources include: • A secure state-of-the-art, wireless network enhanced to support full classroom use • Two general use computer labs • Classroom sets of laptops and iPads to use throughout the building, along with netbooks and printer access • A graphic design lab • A multimedia lab for World Languages • A music lab with full-size weighted electronic keyboards • Smart Boards in every classroom He adds, “Technology provides unprecedented opportunities for communication, collaboration, and critical thinking, all of which prepare our students to become lifelong learners. I’m always excited to see all the way our teachers and students are transforming learning!” vita! winter 2013 | 9 Vita Winter '13_Layout 4 12/3/13 12:43 PM Page 10 Advancing NDA campaign for cushing auditorium The Final Act As the removal of 870 seats began on June 13, one goal superseded all others: to have a renovated Cushing Auditorium ready for the first day of school. Each seat was painstakingly taken apart, the frames and hardware preserved, the cushions and fabrics destined for recycling. Electricians moved in to update wiring and prepare for the installation of a dynamic new sound and projection system. Contractors opened up the wall housing the projection room. Painters and carpet layers waited their turn. With dust and noise taking over one end of the building, fundraising continued at the other. As the school year began, more than 700 alumnae, parents, and friends made contributions totaling nearly $460,000, allowing students to return to an auditorium ready to accommodate them. “We still have work to do,” explains Lynn Page Flaherty, director of institutional advancement. “e basic renovations are complete, but we are still without a new stage curtain and some of the finishing touches. anks to the generosity of Signet Electronics, our audiovisual provider, and great project management by our facilities department, we saved money on many parts of the renovation, making us just $35,000 from our goal.” Included in that goal is another $10,000 to officially rededicate the auditorium stage in honor of Cappi and Ted Doyle P’72 ’73 ’76 ’82, beloved directors of generations of NDA dramatic and musical productions. Mrs. Doyle was also an English teacher. “Mrs. Doyle was the reason I succeeded and survived high school,” wrote Kristen Porter ’87. “She was my teacher, my mentor, and my director … She wrote all of my college recommendations and was my cheerleader when I lacked confidence.” e Campaign for Cushing Auditorium will continue until these goals are met. “It was wonderful to have the space usable for the girls’ return,” says President of the Academy Sister Barbara A. Barry, SNDdeN. “We’ve already hosted speakers who have been so impressed with our sound and projection capabilities. And it was really special to be able to rededicate the space on October 9 (see sidebar) and celebrate with so many people who have supported the project so far. But we’re not done yet. We can’t wait to celebrate again when the project is 100% complete.” To make your gift to e Campaign for Cushing Auditorium, visit www.ndahingham.com/cushign or call 781.749.5930, ext. 2246.

The gathering included a special ribbon cutting ceremony to re-dedicate the Cushing Auditorium. Senior Madeline Blackburn thanked guests for their generosity and the cast of Les Misérables performed two of their favorite songs to entice the crowd to attend the November show. The evening concluded with a cocktail reception in the Saint Julie Dining Hall. 1 Elizabeth Ballantyne Mullen ’63R and Anne Stonefield. 2 Barbara and Brad Caron P’12 ’16 joined Sister Barbara and the Pinches on the steps of the Cushing Auditorium for the official ribbon cutting ceremony. 3 The early support of Kitty and Tim Pinch P’02 ’07 ’12 was critical to the auditorium renovation’s success.

Reunion Challenge 2014 Reunions are full of memories – and ruminations – as graduates reflect on the girls they were and celebrate the women they have become. “Reunion is such a special time,” says Alumnae Director Stevie Lee Taylor. “To witness the friendships that have endured and others that are rekindled during the celebrations is really wonderful. And to hear all the things that our graduates have accomplished since they left NDA is truly amazing.” Planning for the 2014 reunion celebrations kicked off with a reception on October 22, attended by interested volunteers from all reunion classes. Reunion Weekend will feature tours and activities for all reunion class members – highlighted by the Alumnae Memorial Mass and a complimentary cocktail reception – as well as individual class banquets and celebrations. Part of the kickoff conversation focused on reunion class giving. “e Reunion Class Gift is a growing tradition that has made a very visible impact at NDA,” explains Lynn Page Flaherty, director of institutional advancement. “In the last two years alone, our reunion classes have upgraded the desks and chairs in our classrooms, supported scholarships, and financed the renovation of rows of seats in the auditorium. Every donation makes a difference at NDA. e Reunion Class Gift represents the collective donations made by a class during their reunion year, regardless of the purpose of the gift. is year, reunion classes are being asked to support the students themselves, with donations in support of financial aid. “e average financial aid grant is $5,000,” says Flaherty. “We’re asking our alumnae to consider how many girls they can ‘sponsor’ as a class, to make NDA possible for the young women who follow in their footsteps.” “With the reopening of the seventh grade next fall, financial aid becomes an even bigger need as families consider making a six year commitment. We want to make NDA accessible to the best and brightest. Our alumnae have always understood and supported this and we can’t wait to see how many girls we can help with their generous donations.” annual fund campaign 2013-2014 Whether you give to the Alumnae Fund, Parent Fund, Medallion Fund, or the general Annual Fund itself, your contribution touches every part of the NDA experience. These unrestricted dollars help bridge the gap between tuition revenue and the actual cost of an NDA education. Donations make a diverse list of school programs possible – from One Book One School activities and student support presentations, to production costs for the annual musical and even financial aid. Each year, a corps of committed parents and alumnae share their passion for the school by lending their efforts to the Annual Fund Campaign.

We know that NDA is a place where young women feel comfortable raising their hand, sharing ideas, and speaking their mind. Our faculty members encourage this and push each young woman to find her voice. is fall, we celebrated the second annual International Day of the Girl and we asked our students to reflect on the value of their education. Here are few of our favorite responses: Education helps me have my own view of the world. It makes me respect myself and makes others respect me. — Qianping, Class of 2016 It gives me a future that is in my own hands. — Meaghan, Class of 2015 I value my education because it enables me to think critically in different situations and helps me to help others. — Lauren, Class of 2017 I value education because I know it can help me stand up for what is right and just. —Carly, Class of 2015 Educated, empowered women have the dignity and strength to accomplish anything. — Jillian, Class of 2015 ese comments confirm that – with your support – we are succeeding in Saint Julie Billiart’s charge to “Train up strong women ... ” Your donations provide the resources, programs, and opportunities that allow our students to cultivate their unique gifts and develop the confidence to share them with the world. We are grateful for your faith in us and we count on your continued participation to ensure a brilliant future for NDA. ank you! Sincerely, Sister Barbara A.

Puzo Bailey `96 Patricia McCusker Bailey `62R Financial Aid & Scholarship Giving The Academy's commitment to financial aid and scholarships is at the heart of who we are as a school sponsored by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. Endowing a scholarship is a meaningful way to provide the gift of an NDA education to a student who may not have the financial resources to cover tuition and books. A scholarship fund can also recognize merit or special talents. Current-use gifts help NDA fulfill the more than $700,000 annual commitment to these girls and their families. If you are interested in establishing a scholarship at NDA, or wish to support current funds, please contact Lynn Page Flaherty, Director of Institutional Advancement, at 781.749.5930, ext. 2246 or lflaherty@ndahingham.com.
