Congratulations to senior Sally Swann for being named our first Spartan of the Week of the school year!

“Sally embodies what it means to be a true student-athlete and leader. She makes our team better with her ability to read the game, make strategic decisions, and win points. Sally brings incredible energy, focus, encouragement, and competitiveness to everything she does, and she is always striving to hone her craft and grow as a player. Just as importantly, she understands that success comes from being strong both physically and mentally, and she has taken the lead in helping our team embrace the mental side of the game. Sally leads by example, lifts those around her, and makes everyone better. It is a privilege to coach her and an even greater privilege to be her teammate.”  –Nikki Chester, Head Coach Varsity Volleyball

As part of her Girl Scout Gold Award project, freshman Berdie Bridges is collecting gently used orchestra and band concert attire this spring in order to create a free closet of performance clothes for students next fall. 

How To Donate: Bring your clean, gently used concert clothes (and shoes) to the PSO uniform donation bins in the Lower and Middle School offices, the Chambers Center and the Spartan Center. These clothes are only worn twice a year, and they are a great example of when new clothes don’t need to be bought, and old ones don’t need to be thrown away!

Honor Council Nominations

The student-led Honor Council is essential to the proper functioning of our honor system and the strength of our school community. In order to create an Honor Council that is representative of and has the support of the student body, the process for selecting candidates relies on nominations from the members of the class. 

First thing on Monday, May 4, you received an emailed Honor Council nomination ballot for your class. Read the instructions to see the number of people you can nominate – select those who you believe possess honor, morality, and integrity, and who have the strength of character to uphold the honor code and act as role models, even in difficult circumstances.

Nominations will close at 4:00pm on Tuesday, May 5.

The election of the members of the Judiciary Board will take place next week.

Ladies of the rising junior and senior classes–

Are you interested in an overnight field trip to attend the Global Women in STEM Leadership Summit ? This two-day conference will be held Monday and Tuesday, September 14 and 15, at the InterContinental Buckhead Hotel in Atlanta. It features inspiring keynote speakers, panels, and hands-on workshops—all focused on empowering young women to pursue leadership in STEM fields. This is our interim week, but if you are not otherwise engaged with the Costa Rica trip or college visits, this will be an excused absence from Interim Week activities on Monday and Tuesday.

In addition to looking great on a resume or college application, this is truly a fun and motivating experience. You’ll meet trailblazing women from a variety of STEM careers, learn about fields you may never have considered, and enjoy a meaningful couple of days of learning and fun with classmates. It is a professional conference, so professional attire and professional conduct are required! You must represent yourself, your family, and the school well.

A few details:

Location: InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta Hotel

Conference Dates: Monday and Tuesday, September 14-15, 2026

Hotel Stay: We will stay at the conference hotel Sunday night (9/13) through Tuesday (9/15), checking out after the event concludes. We will arrive back to school around 8:30 pm on Tuesday evening.

Estimated Cost: We have been given a 20% discount on registration by the conference founder and chair (and former ACAD parent). Cost will be around $1000 per student (includes registration, hotel, and most meals and snacks) 

Who Can Go: We need at least 4 students to make it happen. A maximum of 12 can attend

The science department will coordinate all arrangements—including registering for the conference and booking hotel accommodations at the group rate. Once final costs are determined, families will reimburse the school for the total amount. The more students we bring, the more affordable it will be per person. I’ve attended this event several times, and each time the students who came with me got so much out of the experience. It’s a great way to explore future possibilities in STEM while building confidence and connections.

If you’d like to hear more, consider reaching out to ladies who all participated last fall. They were Evangeline Bina, Maddie Lacey, Emma-Jane Kirk, Chloe McPherson-Kim, Copeland Cowart,Sophia Coppins, Bay Williams, Eva Saraf, Callie Bernstein, Wells Johnson, Mia Lee, and Maggie Cowart. I am sure they will give you their honest review!

Let Dr. Scott know if you’re interested with an email response as soon as possible please!

Ladies of the rising junior and senior classes–

Are you interested in an overnight field trip to attend the Global Women in STEM Leadership Summit ? This two-day conference will be held Monday and Tuesday, September 14 and 15, at the InterContinental Buckhead Hotel in Atlanta. It features inspiring keynote speakers, panels, and hands-on workshops—all focused on empowering young women to pursue leadership in STEM fields. This is our interim week, but if you are not otherwise engaged with the Costa Rica trip or college visits, this will be an excused absence from Interim Week activities on Monday and Tuesday.

In addition to looking great on a resume or college application, this is truly a fun and motivating experience. You’ll meet trailblazing women from a variety of STEM careers, learn about fields you may never have considered, and enjoy a meaningful couple of days of learning and fun with classmates. It is a professional conference, so professional attire and professional conduct are required! You must represent yourself, your family, and the school well.

A few details:

Location: InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta Hotel

Conference Dates: Monday and Tuesday, September 14-15, 2026

Hotel Stay: We will stay at the conference hotel Sunday night (9/13) through Tuesday (9/15), checking out after the event concludes. We will arrive back to school around 8:30 pm on Tuesday evening.

Estimated Cost: We have been given a 20% discount on registration by the conference founder and chair (and former ACAD parent). Cost will be around $1000 per student (includes registration, hotel, and most meals and snacks) 

Who Can Go: We need at least 4 students to make it happen. A maximum of 12 can attend

The science department will coordinate all arrangements—including registering for the conference and booking hotel accommodations at the group rate. Once final costs are determined, families will reimburse the school for the total amount. The more students we bring, the more affordable it will be per person. I’ve attended this event several times, and each time the students who came with me got so much out of the experience. It’s a great way to explore future possibilities in STEM while building confidence and connections.

If you’d like to hear more, consider reaching out to ladies who all participated last fall. They were Evangeline Bina, Maddie Lacey, Emma-Jane Kirk, Chloe McPherson-Kim, Copeland Cowart,Sophia Coppins, Bay Williams, Eva Saraf, Callie Bernstein, Wells Johnson, Mia Lee, and Maggie Cowart. I am sure they will give you their honest review!

Let Dr. Scott know if you’re interested with an email response as soon as possible please!

For the last full week of Women’s History Month, we are highlighting some women who represent leadership, courage, and innovation.

Victoria Woodhull (1838-1927)

Victoria Woodhull was a prominent activist in the 1800s. Her first husband was an alcoholic and neglected their children, leaving her with the work of raising their family. She ultimately divorced him, and then became a strong advocate of divorce, especially to help women leave abusive husbands. From there, she went on to join the women’s suffrage movement in both the US and England. Additionally, she ran a newspaper, became the first female stockbroker on Wall Street, and ran for president. 

“Is it fair to treat a woman worse than a man, and then revile her because she is a woman?”

Buffalo Calf Road Woman (1844-1879)

Buffalo Calf Road Woman, or Brave Woman, was a Cheyenne warrior. During the Battle of Rosebud, her brother was shot off his horse. She rode into battle, saved his life, and rallied the allied tribes to victory. Because of this, the Cheyenne name for this battle is “The Fight where the Girl Saved her Brother.” She is also credited to be the one who knocked Custer off his horse at Custer’s Last Stand. 

“A nation is not conquered until the hearts of its women are on the ground.”

Sojourner Truth (1797-1883)

Sojourner Truth was an American abolitionist and women’s rights activist. She was born into slavery and escaped with her newborn daughter in 1828. She later took to court to free her son as well, and in 1828, became the first black woman to win a case against a white man. “Sojourner” isn’t actually her real name but an alias she chose to represent her god-given mission of spreading justice and truth by traveling all over the country, blending the Black and women’s suffrage movements.

“I feel safe in the midst of my enemies, for the truth is all powerful and will prevail.”

Thank you for reading! We hope that at some point this month, you felt grateful, inspired, and/or encouraged to work hard, be creative, and determine your own status quo by these revolutionary women–and the women in your own life! Please fill out the SEE the Women in Your Life Form to express some appreciation towards the women in your life who do so much for you!

Happy Women’s History Month,

This week for Women’s History Month, we are celebrating groundbreaking women in the STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and math). 

Jane Goodall (1934-2025)

Dr. Valerie Jane Morris-Goodall was born in Bournemouth England on April 3, 1934. Growing up, Jane had always loved animals and had had numerous house pets like tortoises, dogs and others. Jane couldn’t afford college so she went to a secretarial school to perfect typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping skills. She worked multiple jobs and by age 23 she left to pursue her dream of living in Africa. It is there that Jane found her interest in chimpanzees. Jane made groundbreaking discoveries, revolutionizing the understanding of animal behavior by finding out that chimpanzees make and use tools. Jane recently died October first 2025. 

“Change happens by listening and then starting a dialogue with the people who are doing something you don’t believe is right.”

Margaret Hamilton (1936–)

Margaret Hamilton is an American computer scientist who created the term “software engineering.” Her most famous accomplishment was being a lead developer on the Apollo 11 software. During this time she wrote code for the priority alarm display,” which meant the computer would shut down less important systems if overloaded. This code saved the Apollo 11 mission during an emergency while landing!

“Every problem has two handles. You can grab it by the handle of fear or the handle of hope.”

Mary Anning (1799-1847)

Mary Anning was a British paleontologist who is widely renowned as the “greatest fossilist to ever live.” She spent her career examining the marine fossils that washed ashore in her hometown of Dorset, England. She had little formal education, typical of women in the Georgian Era, but taught herself basic anatomy and geology. She is credited with the first discovery of the Ichthyosaurus, uncovering almost a full fossilized skeleton at only 12 years old. 

“Science is the language with which we converse with nature, and its truths are revealed through the language of evidence.”

Thank you for reading! We encourage you to think about how these women–and all of the other hard working women in STEM–have impacted your lives!

Women’s History Month

Yayoi Kusama (1929–)

Referred to as the woman who invented polka dots, Yayoi Kusama is a world famous artist who adopted the polka dot as her signature motif to represent “self-obliteration,” hallucinations and infinity. Kusama was born in 1929 in Nagano, Japan and is now 96 years old and still creating. In the 1960s, she embraced hippie counterculture and organized “happenings” in which participants were painted with brightly colored polka dots. She is one of the world’s most successful living artists and a top-selling female artist. 

“With just one polka dot, nothing can be achieved.” 

Enheduanna (c. 2300 BCE)

Enheduanna was a Mesopotamian high priestess, princess, and poet. She is the first named author in all of recorded history! We have 42 temple hymns and three poems written by her. Her existence was not known until 1927 when objects belonging to her were excavated. 

“Your great deeds are unparallelled, your magnificence is praised! Young woman, Inana, your praise is sweet!”

Edmonia Lewis (1844-1907)

Nicknamed “Wildfire”, Edmonia Lewis was the first sculptor of African American and Native American descent to receive worldwide recognition for her artwork. She established herself as a professional artist, sculpting portraits of anti-slavery heroes. Lewis was determined to prove herself as an independent artist, and therefore did all her work herself, unlike other sculptors of this time. Much of her art dealt with her heritage and the oppression of African American people, breaking stereotypes and changing the narratives that policed Black people and women at the time.

“Sometimes the times were dark and the outlook was lonesome, but where there is a will, there is a way. I pitched in and dug at my work until now I am where I am”.

About HOBY

At HOBY, we teach students how to think, not what to think. We believe that in order to create positive change, you must first understand yourself and those around you. Based on the Social Change Model of Leadership, HOBY programs highlight paths toward self-awareness, taking courageous action, authenticity, and connection. 

Our flagship program welcomes nominated student ambassadors to a 3 day seminar taking place at Georgia Southern June 5-7, 2026. Students explore their personal leadership skills and values, and practice those skills while collaborating with diverse groups. They leverage their new abilities as they apply the value of service leadership to make a positive impact in their communities.

At HOBY, we believe all students have the potential to lead. Our seminars bring students together across different backgrounds, cultures, and communities, and are proven to cultivate personal growth and inspire action. Nominating sophomores from your school to attend HOBY is a benefit for both the individual and the community
