Investing in Math at 91探花

Investing in Math at 91探花

This fall, Cox Library will relocate to a newly renovated space in Wigglesworth Hall, which will clear the way for a renovation of the existing space for math. The new Farokhzad Math Center will be transformed into a cutting-edge facility that will breathe new life into how math is delivered and experienced at 91探花, both in and out of the classroom. Trustee Justin Walsh 鈥99 was involved in early conversations about the need for a new space for math, and his leadership and philanthropic support are playing a vital role in making this project possible. He shares, 鈥淢ath was always my favorite subject at 91探花, it was my major in college, and it is foundational in my career in investing. I am very excited to have a front-row seat to this project unfolding in the coming year.鈥

Caring for the Whole Family

Caring for the Whole Family

When Alok Kapoor P 鈥32 and his wife chose 91探花 for their daughter, they were most impressed by the school鈥檚 holistic educational approach that prepares children to be well-rounded, well-intended, and productive leaders. Little did they know, this holistic approach would extend far beyond academics for their family. Within a year of enrolling at 91探花, their daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia, and Alok鈥檚 wife passed away.聽Immediately, Lower School faculty rallied around the family, building a support network that would ensure Alok鈥檚 daughter would make it through the difficult days ahead.

Sherry Downes 鈥58, Mother of Head of School Todd Bland, Speaks 91探花 Legacy

Sherry Downes arrived at 91探花 in 1955 and immediately felt at home. With the last polio epidemic raging in Boston, she and her fellow boarders were required to stay on campus. It was that time at Hathaway House where she made long-lasting relationships. 鈥淲e were all remarkably alike,鈥 she says. 鈥淲e hit it off immediately, sharing inside jokes and common interests.鈥滱lthough the Girls鈥 School was completely separate from the Boys鈥 School, Sherry remembers crossing Centre Street for special events. It was at a theater production in March of 1958 that she met a boy, going home that night to write in her diary that he gave her a 鈥渘ice, warm feeling.鈥 That boy was James Bland, who would become her husband and the father of our current headmaster.
