FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL
Dear families, alumni, grandparents, and friends:
When reflecting on the last few years, it is impossible to ignore how advances in technology have challenged Rowland Hall to change the way it educates its students. In fact, the ongoing technological revolution compels us to continually evaluate our pedagogy, and to adapt quickly, but thoughtfully, to better equip students for careers we could not imagine just five years ago.
In recent years, top educators from around the country have encouraged schools to focus on a new set of competencies for students. Pat Bassett, former president of the National Association of Independent Schools, has referred to these as the six C’s: creativity, character, critical thinking, communication, cross cultural competency, and collaboration. As we examine our use of technology, it is important to remember that although technology is not the only educational tool available to us, it is a powerful tool when used intentionally to meet well thought out educational goals. The Board of Trustees has made it possible for the school to take two important steps to achieve these goals during the coming years. One, the Board authorized the creation of a new full-time position, Director of Curriculum and Instruction, for which we are conducting a nationwide search. Two, we have recently hired Middle School mathematics teacher, Christian Waters, to fill the new position of Director of Technology Integration. These individuals will play vital roles in disseminating current research on how children learn, and, most importantly, in training and supporting our faculty as they adapt to new educational methods and best practices.
As we look to strengthen our program in all areas while maintaining the best of traditional education, we will continually question how new technologies, applications, and software can best help us realize an ever-changing set of targets. The collision of digital learning and traditional education is a major topic for the current strategic planning steering committee of the Board of Trustees. I have to say that it is an exciting time to be an educator exploring these issues. We welcome your suggestions and insights as we navigate the technological world and help our students acquire the competencies and confidence necessary to achieve success.
I hope you will enjoy reading about how much Rowland Hall has accomplished during the recent school year, and particularly call your attention to the stories of a handful of our successful graduates. Those who generously agreed to be featured are among the many we are proud to call our alumni.
Sincerely,
Alan Sparrow Head of School
FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
Since early June, mountains of dirt just west of the McCarthey gymnasium have been moved daily. Before the earth movers and cement pourers could get to work on our new athletic fields, scores of Rowland Hall loyalists like you removed obstacles from our path to help us reach this point in the school’s history: you gave money to pay for the construction; you gave suggestions about designs; you helped us plan future steps; and you nurtured the vision that all our students could, one day, learn, play, and grow together on one campus.
This is an era of change at Rowland Hall. Our facilities are improving. Beginning School students are using iPads. This year, the daily class schedule will change for the middle and upper school students.
These changes are taking place in an environment where there is one great constant – Rowland Hall’s teachers. They endeavor to integrate digital connectivity in the classroom, they adjust schedules and courses and incorporate best practices, and they excite our children about their possibilities and passions. Our faculty wholeheartedly engage with our children, and our efforts are directed toward reinforcing the relationship between teacher and student.
I hope you will join me in taking pride in the collective energy our community continues to generate, enabling us to break ground for new playing fields this summer and eventually new classrooms, gymnasiums, and art spaces that are fit for great teaching and learning.
Sincerely,
Bob Steiner Board of Trustees Chair
2012 - 2013 FINANCE REPORT
The finance committee of the Board of Trustees is pleased to report that the school enters the 2013-2014 year on sound financial footing.
For the recently completed year, our actual revenues and expenses were in line with forecasts; of particular note was the strong finish for the Annual Fund. With a few months to go the Annual Fund was below its target goal, but thanks to the generosity of community donors we reached the Annual Fund goal. The importance of the Annual Fund cannot be overstated. Without it, the school would be challenged to provide the breadth and depth of programs we all value.
Each year we benchmark the school against similar schools across the country, and from a financial perspective, our rankings remain impressive. Tuition costs are at the low end of the group of peer schools and the percentage of revenues directed toward faculty salaries is at the high end. Even with our comparatively low tuition, our faculty salaries remain above the peer school average. The most valuable aspect of the school is the quality of our faculty, and we are pleased to see that our budget reflects this belief.
Thanks to many generous donors, Rowland Hall enters the new school year in a strong financial position. The endowment fund has grown through Capital Campaign donations, financial controls are sound, and we have sufficient reserves to weather disruptions. Through the Board of Trustees’ strategic planning process, we will continue to explore ways to ensure Rowland Hall’s business model is financially sustainable well into the future.

SALUTE TO DEPARTING TRUSTEES
At this time each year we express our gratitude and fondly say goodbye to the trustees who have completed six years on the Board. We thank them for their service, support, and valuable advice.
Ben Logue served six years and was active on the finance committee and the new campus project. His knowledge of construction and development was valuable in helping make major decisions on building the athletic fields. He also provided good counsel on the implementation of the solar panels at the McCarthey Campus and on many other components of the school’s sustainability program.
Rhonda Nicoloff completed two terms on the Board and worked on the finance committee and the Capital Campaign for the new campus. She was an effective liaison with families and a reliable source of information and guidance for school administration. Her participation will be missed.
Priya Junnar Chodosh served the Board and school in many capacities during her five years of volunteerism. She explored efficient ways to improve the school’s food services as chair of the cafeteria/food committee. She brought insight to the diversity committee and sound advice to the education and nominating committees. Her influence was strong and she was known for never saying “no.”
Margaret McGann was instrumental during the legal process of acquiring the Mt. Olivet property, both as a neighbor and parent. She joined the Board six years ago and served on the finance and education committees. She brought her legal expertise to Board discussions and for the last two years served as the Board legal advisor.
Thank you to all of our outgoing trustees for their hard work and dedication to the school. All of our students and faculty benefited from your strong efforts.
MEET INCOMING BOARD CHAIR RICHARD BADENHAUSEN
We are pleased to welcome Richard Badenhausen as the new Chair of the Board of Trustees.
Richard is a professor and the Kim T. Adamson Chair at Westminster College, where he has spent the past decade directing its Honors program. He has also taught at Marshall University and the University of Michigan, where he received his Ph.D. in 1989. He concentrates his research and writing on T. S. Eliot and other modernist authors. Richard served on the board of directors of the National Collegiate Honors Council, an organization that represents over 700 collegiate honors programs around the country, and on the board of River Valley Child Development Services, the largest early childhood education provider in West Virginia.
He first joined Rowland Hall’s Board in 2006 and has served on various committees, including education (for five years as its chair), finance, nominating (for one year as its chair), strategic planning (twice), the World Languages subcommittee, and numerous search committees.
Richard is married to Katherine Venti, an attorney and shareholder at Parsons Behle & Latimer. They have two children who both entered Rowland Hall in 2001: Will, a 2012 graduate who attends Gonzaga University, and Liza, who started her junior year this fall.
WELCOME NEW TRUSTEES
Luz Robles holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Marketing and a Master of Public Administration from the University of Utah. In 2008, Luz was elected to the Utah State Senate to represent District 1, which encompasses the west side of Salt Lake City and parts of West Valley City. In 2012, she was elected to a second term and serves as the Senate minority caucus manager. She also serves on the Health and Human Services Appropriations and the Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Committees, and has focused her legislative work on public safety, veteran’s affairs, and health-related issues. In 2005, Governor Jon Huntsman appointed Luz to be the first director of the State Office of Ethnic Affairs to oversee the Offices of Asian, Black, Hispanic/Latino and Pacific Islander Affairs. She currently works as vice president for Zion’s Bank.
Luz is committed to equality and justice for all people and has been a member of the Diversity Committee at Rowland Hall since it was created. She has served on the boards of many non-profit organizations, both city and statewide. Luz is currently on the boards of Guadalupe School, Kingsbury Hall, Primary Children’s Medical Center, and the College of Social and Behavioral Science Advisory Board for the University of Utah.
The Robles have been part of the Rowland Hall community since 2007. Her daughter, Aileen, looks forward to beginning third grade in the fall.
Anna Topham spent her childhood years in the suburbs of Chicago, Boston, and New York City. She received her dual Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and Economics from Bowdoin College and earned a Master of Business Administration from the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration at Dartmouth College. Between degrees, Anna worked as a financial analyst in Merrill Lynch’s Investment Banking Group in New York City, where she met her husband, Reed. After graduating from business school, Anna joined American Stores Company, working in various marketing and project management capacities. She brought her organizational and leadership skills to Toysrus.com, where as director of product management she led a complete overhaul of the company’s fledgling website. She has advised several start-up companies and currently serves as manager of a private investment fund.
After the births of three children in as many years, Anna stepped back from corporate work, and has focused her energy on her children and home life. She has coached her boys’ sports teams, organized a family reunion, and managed her children’s performance violin group.
The Tophams have been part of the Rowland Hall community for seven years. During this time, Anna has volunteered on picture day, collected used books for donation, and helped out in the classroom. Anna has served as a room parent and Annual Fund liaison, and has participated on the Sustainability Committee, Food Services Committee, and the Auction Solicitations Committee. Reed, a Utah native, is an attorney with Stoel Rives. Their three children are Rowland Hall students: Austin and Cole are in seventh grade, and Natalie is in third grade.
Carol Clawson was born and raised in Salt Lake City, where she attended Rowland Hall Middle School. Carol received a Bachelor of Arts in History and a Master of Arts in Education from Stanford University. She later received her J.D. from the University of Utah. She has practiced law in Salt Lake City for 20-plus years, and currently is “Of Counsel” to Kruse Landa Maycock and Ricks, where she focuses on alternative dispute resolution.
Carol likes to spend the rest of her time training her dogs for sheepdog and agility competitions. She has served on a number of community organizations, including the Board of Trustees for Utah Legal Services, “and Justice for All,” and the Community Legal Center. Carol is married to Stephen Hull, also a long-time Salt Lake City attorney. They have recently moved to Charleston, Utah (near Heber City), where they share their home and pasture with five border collies and several sheep.
Their son, Robbie, was a “lifer,” having started in 2PreK and graduated in 2009. He recently graduated from Pomona College and is headed to Duke Law School this fall. While Robbie was at Rowland Hall, Carol served as a room representative and soccer parent representative. She continues to serve as school photographer for several of the school’s sports teams and has provided continual legal assistance to the school.
Oscar Wood Moyle IV, ’90, was born and raised in Salt Lake City and is a new member of the Alumni Committee of the Board. He received a Bachelor of Science in History from Lewis and Clark College and a Master of Business Administration from Westminster College in 2006.
Wood is director of the Board of Trustees for the R. Harold Burton Foundation and the Edward L. Burton Foundation. His heartfelt commitment to the Salt Lake City community is reflected in the charitable boards on which he simultaneously serves, including the Utah Museum of Natural History, Westminster College’s Board of Trustees, and the Western Folk Life Center in Elko, Nevada. His wife, Marianne, is also an active civic volunteer, focusing much of her efforts as a board member of the Utah Zoological Society (Hogle Zoo). Marianne also volunteers on Rowland Hall’s Home and School Board and has been a room representative for both 3PreK and 4PreK. Wood and Marianne will also be Annual Fund liasons this year.
Wood is an avid reader of military history and science fiction, and spends “way too much time” engrossed in college football.
Wood, Marianne, and their son, Ocky, reside in the Avenues neighborhood and are excited for Ocky to begin kindergarten this fall.
WE BID FOND FAREWELL TO THE FOLLOWING TEACHERS AND ADMINISTRATORS AND WISH THEM WELL IN THEIR NEW ENDEAVORS.
Johanna Edwards taught advanced levels of math in the Upper School for more than 10 years and leaves Rowland Hall to return home to England to be closer to her family.
Peter Hayes reluctantly retired last spring due to illness. He taught biology and study skills to Rowland Hall freshmen for over 17 years.
Lynne Peterson, long-time Lower School teacher, is returning to her home state of Montana to be a school administrator at the district level.
Lower School teacher Carolyn Schabel is relocating to Bend, Oregon.
We wish the best to Mary McIntyre, who guided the school in instituting its successful and award-winning sustainability program for the past five years as our Director of Sustainability. She also revamped our food services program to include more healthy food choices and composting.
Finally, Margaret Rose, Lower School assistant principal, and her spouse, Laurie, have moved to Saipan to pursue once-in-a-lifetime personal and professional adventures.
We will miss them all and wish each the best of luck and happiness.
GRADUATES OF THE CLASS OF 2013
The 84 members of the Class of 2013 clearly understood the counseling office’s philosophy that college choices are first and foremost about the fit between institution and student. We congratulate them as they matriculate this fall into 47 institutions both around the country and the world. As in previous years, more than half of our senior class received offers of merit scholarships. This class has the highest percentage of National Merit Scholars Semifinalists in the State of Utah, the highest percentage of Rowmark Ski Academy graduates ever, and the highest number of “lifers” of any class at Rowland Hall to date.

RECIPIENTS OF 2013 MARQUARDT AWARD TO ATTEND IPAD PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT SEMINAR
Congratulations to the group of Lower School teachers and staff who were honored with the 2013 Marquardt Award for Faculty Development: Sarah Button, Tyler Fonarow, Patrick Godfrey, Sheri Harris, Brent Larsen, Mary Jo Marker, Chad Obermark, and Christian Waters.
The Marquardt Award was established in 2011 through a generous gift from Bob Marquardt, father of three Rowland Hall lifers and a long-time former trustee and Board chair. This gift to our endowment annually funds an extraordinary professional development
opportunity to benefit the school as a whole. A faculty member submits a proposal outlining the professional development opportunity he or she would like to pursue.
This group of fifth and sixth grade educators and staff submitted a proposal to attend a three-day iPad Summer Seminar at the Hillbrook School’s Center for
Teaching Excellence in Los Gatos, California. This summer they had an opportunity to reflect on how iPads have changed instruction in the classroom, discuss the changes with others who implement similar technology, and learn about best practices.

NICOLE PERSHING
“As an M.D./Ph.D. student at Duke University, the road I have taken has been long, and some might say crazy, but I feel lucky to be here. The support of family, friends, and teachers that started with my Rowland Hall education makes me excited to start each day with the hope of discovering something new or helping a patient through a difficult time. From my earliest years in Lower School, I remember learning about the magic of the world around me through both experiential and classroom learning. In high school, Mr. Hayes’ biology class sparked what would become my academic passion. The intensity of his interest in the subject was contagious. From the time we spent learning about the adaptive attributes of the flora and fauna of the Utah desert in southern Utah to pneumonic songs to remember the Krebs cycle, his teaching encouraged my curiosity in the biological world to blossom.
As strong as my science classes were, equally important were lessons I learned in more subtle ways. While learning French in Mr. Wortham’s class, I also garnered a respect for humanity and the integrity of the individual that informed my decision to go to medical school. The belief that I could tackle challenges helped me pursue my interests, even when obstacles made the road to accomplishing my goals unclear. The sense of community with my teachers, coaches, and teammates, and the friendships I carried throughout my tenure at Rowland Hall allowed me the confidence to explore and find what best suited me.”

GEOFF SWINDLE
“I was not the easiest child to raise. I had a lot of energy and liked to do things on my own terms. My parents still joke that at age three I told my mom, ‘I am the boss of my own person!’ That strong will and independence, although difficult to appreciate when I was young, drove my entrepreneurial spirit and fueled my passion to create and build my own business.
I came to Rowland Hall my sophomore year. Coming from the public school system, it was a welcome change. For the first time in my educational experience, I was encouraged to think outside the box and was given numerous tools to explore my creative thinking. One of the unique attributes of Rowland Hall is that it not only provides, but also encourages, students to pursue a variety of interests to help shape them for the future.
Whether it is debate, fine arts, science, or athletics, Rowland Hall provides a safe environment for kids to explore and learn. The small class sizes, relationships with teachers, and supportive culture give students the confidence to take risks and develop life skills. My experience at Rowland Hall allowed me to embrace my independent spirit and become an entrepreneur. Rowland Hall exemplifies the true meaning of a well-rounded education.”

LAWRENCE BENJAMIN
“Rowland Hall taught me the importance of seeking out mentorship throughout my academic career. The small class sizes of Rowland Hall always appealed to me, and they were one of the main reasons I wanted to attend the school. In the classroom, there was ample opportunity to interact not only with my fellow classmates but also with teachers and faculty. I built fantastic relationships with many of my teachers over the years; some have even been over to my family’s home for Thanksgiving dinner. Whenever I am in Salt Lake, I make it a point to try to visit the school, even though it has been several years since I walked its hallways as a student.
These foundational experiences set the stage for the rest of my academic career. The familiarity I had with my teachers at Rowland Hall, instilled in me the confidence to approach college professors with questions or when seeking advice. The Rowland Hall student-teacher relationship gave me the self-assurance that will benefit me throughout my life and my career.”

ASHLEY ROTHWELL
“Rowland Hall laid the foundation for who I am and taught me many things that I have carried into my adult life – most notably confidence, a strong work ethic, and persistence. I was lucky enough to be a Rowmark Ski Academy student beginning in eighth grade and went on to ski for an NCAA Division 1 program at St. Lawrence University in New York for which I was named MVP my freshman year. I learned how to be responsible, self sufficient, and confident. I experienced the ups and downs of competition and all that comes with success and failure. Just because I work hard doesn’t always mean I am going to make it. But I can never give up, and that’s what I learned from my experience at Rowland Hall.
After college I spent roughly 10 years in an advertising career in San Francisco before taking the plunge to open my own business. Owning a business had always been a dream of mine, and fashion is my passion, so on September 8, 2007, I married the two concepts and opened Apt. 202 Boutique, named after my apartment number in San Francisco, in the 9th and 9th area of Salt Lake City.
I spent a year conducting market research and preparing myself for the opening with the hopes that it would be well received. Here I am six years later, with a beautiful new location that also houses my husband’s business, Salon MC (a hair salon). We bought and remodeled the building and together we enjoy a wonderful clientele and two businesses that we are proud to own and operate.
My store is truly a unique shop. I love fashion and I love styling, but I also understand that many women appreciate a little help getting dressed, and that’s where I come in. Whether you are a repeat customer or a first-time shopper, I take time to help customers choose the right outfit for the occasion—be it a cocktail party, wedding party or just some great day-to-day pieces. I take the stress and labor out of shopping and make it a fun and easy experience.”

SAM McCONNELL
“Growing up I always knew I wanted to do something in the arts, and I hoped I might have some positive impact, but I had no idea what that might look like, or how to get there. Luckily, Rowland Hall gave me the freedom to explore my imagination, the confidence to pursue my own path, and an appreciation for the community around me.
Rowland Hall offered an abundance of creative opportunities, and I dove right in. I played saxophone in the band, I acted in plays and musicals, and I took as many ceramics, drawing, and painting classes as I could. I was also drawn to storytelling, whether it was memorizing Shakespeare with Tony Larimer or analyzing Toni Morrison with Leslie Helm Stone. These experiences provided a window into the world and gave me the confidence to develop and believe in my own perspective.
I am enormously grateful to teachers who went beyond their specific subjects and taught us about humanity. In French class Doug Wortham taught us French, no doubt, but he did so using Renaissance paintings, Edith Piaf, and existentialist philosophy. George Henry taught all the history relevant to the AP exam but gave equal weight to the history of the oppressed, whose stories are under represented. Being a young gay kid growing up in Utah, I felt particularly drawn to the stories of those who struggled on the margins of society, and I was inspired to learn more about the civil rights movement, the labor movement, and the movement for LGBT equality.
My work today as a filmmaker and activist has been directly influenced by my years at Rowland Hall. A documentary I produced, “The Out List,” which explores LGBT identity in the United States premiered on HBO in June. My next project, a feature length adaptation of the novel In the City of Shy Hunters, tells the stories of individuals living in the NYC downtown arts scene in the 1980s, who were decimated by the AIDS epidemic. I continue to seek challenging and engaging stories to tell that will hopefully bring some enlightenment. I have Rowland Hall to thank for teaching me that there is a compelling story to be found in just about every subject.”

IN MEMORIAM
We extend our deepest sympathy to the family of Rowland Hall parent Steven Philip Goldman, age 53, who passed away August 13, 2013, in Salt Lake City. His daughter Julia, a senior this year, has been at Rowland Hall since 4PreK and is an active participant in debate and service learning. His wife of 20 years, Kris McHugh, is a familiar and welcome face at the school.
Steve attended The Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania where he received two bachelor of science degrees in political science and economics. He received his law degree from UCLA and was admitted to the bars of California and the District of Columbia. He married Kris McHugh on September 25, 1994 in Seattle, Washington.
He loved cooking, photography and travel, but he mostly loved his family.
We extend our sympathy to Stewart Ellington, ’89, on the death of his father Stewart Ellington, Sr.
Marie C. Hurley Larmier
May 9, 1922 - May 25, 2013
Rowland Hall lost a good friend on May 25, 2013. Our love goes out to her family and friends. Her sparkling personality will be greatly missed.
Marie C. Hurley Larimer passed away at the age of 91. A native of Staten Island, N.Y., she is survived by her children:
Jack Newman, Pat Newman Miller, Gael Newman Pardi and Merri Newman, ’80; her two stepsons, Tim Larimer, ’86, and Grant Larimer; seven grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren.
Marie resided in Salt Lake City for approximately 40 years and was employed by Rowland Hall as an assistant registrar, but is fondly remembered as the “Band Aid” lady.
She was predeceased by her husband of 25 years, Emmet (Tony) Larimer, who taught at Rowland Hall for more than 30 years and was instrumental in the activities of the Alumni Association.
A celebration of Marie’s life was held on May 30, 2013, at the Salt Lake Acting Company, where she and Tony were very involved for many years. She received a rousing standing ovation for a life well lived.
Donations to the Alumni Scholarship Fund are encouraged in remembrance of Marie.
GROUNDBREAKINGCELEBRATION
After decades of dreaming, details, and determination, Rowland Hall officially broke ground on the first phase of the future Richard R. Steiner Campus on May 29, 2013.
Alumni, parents, faculty, and staff celebrated the occasion with balloons, speeches, laughter, music, and shovels. The afternoon culminated in cheers as parent Rin Harris climbed aboard a brand new D-7 bulldozer to ceremoniously begin construction. Rin, as the highest bidder for this experience at Rowland Hall’s auction last fall, relished the honor of driving the big machinery.
This first phase of the Steiner Campus consists of: leveling, grading, and setting the infrastructure for the entire campus project; building two synthetic-turf playing fields; establishing the entranceway and parking; and the construction of a storage building that will also house restroom facilities. Additionally, the phase calls for establishing a community garden and creating a large, grass playing field to be used until construction on the final phase begins.
“This first phase of the Steiner Campus is evidence of the marvelous results that emerge from members of a community coming together with a sense of common purpose,” incoming Board of Trustees Chair Richard Badenhausen said. “Thanks to all of you who had a hand in bringing about this amazing moment.”
The first phase is slated for completion in November 2013.
FOND FAREWELL TO DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT
LIBBY ELLIS
Libby Ellis, who for the past seven years has served as Rowland Hall’s Director of Development, has resigned to explore the next phase of her career in the fundraising world. About her departure, Libby said, “With the funds raised for the first phase of the Capital Campaign and a fantastic team in place, I believe it’s the perfect time to seek new opportunities.”
Associate Head of School Julie Barrett had this to say, “Libby has been an incredible asset to the school and responsible for the success of the new building project start on Phase 1 of the Capital Campaign. Her team and the Campaign Steering Committee and many generous donors help us successfully meet the dollar goal that allowed us to break ground this summer.
Libby was also largely responsible for the school’s increase in its endowment from $4 million to nearly $10 million during her tenure. She felt passionately about this project and can leave the school knowing her efforts left Rowland Hall on secure footing for future stability.
Julie continued, “We expect to hear great things from Libby. Her son, Ellis, continues as a student entering the eighth grade and I know Libby is looking forward to being just one among many wonderful school parents.” Thank you, Libby, for all you have done in behalf of Rowland Hall.
CAPITAL CAMPAIGN PHASE 1A GOALS EXCEEDED
Who would have guessed that during one of the worst recessions in decades the Rowland Hall community would come together to raise $21 million to begin the work of building exceptional, state-of-the-art facilities for its older students?
As the first shovels broke ground on the new campus, Associate Head of School Julie Barrett expressed appreciation for the hard work of many and the leadership of Capital Campaign Chair, Jennifer Price-Wallin.
“Jennifer never wavered in her vision and commitment to the project,” Julie said. “All of our students will benefit from her hard work, tenacity, and positive focus.”
TOTAL GOAL - $19,350,000 TOTAL RAISED - $20,725,837
*The total costs of Phase 1A have been donated and pledged. The project came in a bit under the budget.
CAPITAL CAMPAIGN OUTCOMES
• Ownership of 13 acres in the heart of SLC, adjacent to the existing McCarthey Campus
• Two advanced-technology synthetic turf athletic fields athletic storage and restroom facilities

MIKE ROBERTS’ RUN 4 ROWLAND HALL
Eighth grade English teacher Mike Roberts wanted to donate more to the new campus than his personal income would allow. So he combined his passion for the school with his training as an ultramarathoner.
Mr. Robs (as he is affectionately known) raised $25,000 in donations, which was matched to total $50,000, by running from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas. Cheering fans and television news cameras waved him into high temperatures on the morning of June 5, 2013, as he left the McCarthey Campus. Mike successfully completed the run, all 451 miles, to Las Vegas on June 21, 2013.
“I appreciate the school letting me play out this crazy idea,” Mr. Robs said after some recovery time. “It turned out far better than I could have ever imagined.”
Two fun facts: He lost six pounds over the entire run and ate far too many Egg McMuffins. Read more about the results: http://www.mikesrun4rowlandhall.com/blog.html.
WEINHOLTZ FAMILY ESTABLISHES ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIPS
Michael and Donna Weinholtz were so moved by their Rowland Hall experience as parents of Chase, their Rowland Hall “lifer,” that they created an extraordinary opportunity for future students. With a gift of $1 million, the couple established the Weinholtz Family Scholarship Fund for McCarthey Campus students.
The Wienholz’s sum up their feelings with this: “We feel that our son not only received a worldclass education at Rowland Hall, but a transformative overall experience as well – one based on caring, support, and individual attention from the most amazing faculty and staff imaginable. We wanted very much to provide others with the opportunity to share in the Rowland Hall experience of academic excellence and well-rounded personal development.”
The fund will be put to use immediately. This fall, two incoming Lower School students will receive full scholarships. Income generated from the endowed fund will support the students throughout their years at Rowland Hall.
“Donna and Michael are two of the finest people you will ever meet,” former Director of Development Libby Ellis said. “They are selfless, give from the heart, and besides that, they are just really fun. Our school community has benefited tremendously from their energy and generosity.”

ENTREPRENEURS CIRCLE ACTIVATES RH STUDENTS IN 2012-2013
The Entrepreneur’s Circle is a group of Rowland Hall alumni, parents, and friends who gather to share their business expertise, to network, and to give back to the school. We are grateful to the members who hosted two interactive events this year.
Early last fall, Sarah Evershed Penna,‘02, co-founder and owner of media company Big Frame and the Bammo channel, and her husband, Joe Penna, who maintains the YouTube channel MysteryGuitarMan, spoke with Rowland Hall students about turning ideas into functioning businesses. Their presentations were inspirational while providing useful information, particularly in the realm of social media.
In addition, 12 Upper School students participated in an entrepreneurial Interim trip this spring. The first stop was the University of Utah’s Pierre Lassonde Entrepreneurial Center. Students were presented with the challenge of identifying a problem, creating a solution, generating a business plan, and pitching their concept to the team. The next stop was Silicon Valley, where they attended a Launchpad class at Stanford University. They met with venture capitalists and founders of several start-up companies to learn the basics of business.
“I loved visiting all the start-ups,” then freshman Haley Fort said. “The Da Vinci robot from Intuitive Surgical was probably my favorite. Participating made me see all the hard work involved in starting up a business.”
We would especially like to thank parents and trustees Alex Bocock and Mike Levinthal for hosting and shaping these experiences for our students. A list of all the members of the Entrepreneurs’ Circle can be found on page 49.
THE LEGACY SOCIETY
During the past year, Rowland Hall was fortunate to be the beneficiary of a number of gifts from families who planned ahead and made either a lasting gift through their estate plans or via other life-income-generating mechanisms. These gifts will provide the school with financial options for scholarship funds, funds for the new campus, and vital operating income.
Individuals and families who work with the school or have notified us of their intentions to make bequests to the school become members of “The Legacy Society.”
This year we acknowledge Anne Sheldon DeBruin, ’43, Claudia Lang Eland, ’52, and Sally Lehman Boynton Murray, for their generosity to Rowland Hall.
If you have named Rowland Hall-St. Mark’s School in your estate plans or would like to discuss options on how to give a tax-wise planned gift to the school, please contact Robyn Payne at (801)924-2961 or email robynpayne@rowlandhall.org.
ANNUAL FUND 2012-2013 SURPASSES GOAL
This year’s Annual Fund successfully raised $764,682.00. During a year in which the school held both an auction and a capital campaign, our community pulled together to surpass the 2012-2013 Annual Fund goal. Congratulations!
The funds provided support for an art specialist in the Beginning School, a mathematics-teaching consultant to the middle and upper schools, technology integration, and professional development for faculty. These new positions and initiatives furthered Rowland Hall’s charge to offer an extraordinary learning environment. Thank you, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends for your generous contributions!
Very Special Thanks to Annual Fund Chairs Jill and David Lang
A huge thank you goes out to Jill and David Lang for their tireless dedication as this year’s Annual Fund chairs. They worked hard to educate our community on the importance of contributing to the Annual Fund and were an invaluable part of the campaign’s success. We are thrilled that they have agreed to chair the Annual Fund again next year.
