/in , /by

Northwood, New Hampshire…Headmaster David S. Smith of Coe-Brown Northwood Academy announced today that Nikhil Chavda and John Zhang have been named as Semifinalists in the 2023 National Merit Scholarship Program, while Megan Adams has been named a Commended Student for her exceptional academic promise. In addition, six CBNA students have been awarded the National Rural and Small Town Award through the College Board National Recognition Programs, including Megan Adams, Ella Brooks, Drew Clinch, Brady Kouchoukos, Emma Larson, John Zhang. Letters of recognition have been presented to these scholastically talented seniors.

Officials of the National Merit Scholarship Corporation recently announced the names of over 16,000 Semifinalists in the 68th annual National Merit Scholarship Program, including those of Chavda and Zhang. These academically talented high school seniors have an opportunity to continue in the competition for some 7,250 National Merit Scholarships worth nearly $28 million that will be offered in the spring. To be considered for a Merit Scholarship award, Semifinalists must fulfill several requirements to advance to the Finalist level of the competition. About 95% of the Semifinalists are expected to attain Finalist standing, and approximately half of the Finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship, earning the Merit Scholar title.

Adams is one of 34,000 Commended Students throughout the nation who are being recognized for their exceptional academic promise. Although they will not continue in the 2023 competition for National Merit Scholarship awards, Commended Students placed among the top 50,000 students who entered the 2023 competition by taking the 2021 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT).

The National Rural and Small Town Award is one of four in the National Recognition Program, which includes three others that recognize students of Hispanic, African American, or Indigenous heritage. Adams, Brooks, Clinch, Kouchoukos, Larson and Zhang were all recognized through the National Rural and Small Town award for being academically competitive underrepresented students. Students who may be eligible for this recognition have a GPA of 3.5 or higher and have excelled on the PSAT/NMSQT, or earned a score of 3 or higher on two or more AP Exams; and attend school in a rural area or small town.

Coe-Brown Northwood Academy Theatre Program Features Musical

“The Wizard of Oz”

 

Northwood, New Hampshire… Coe-Brown Northwood Academy’s theatre program is pleased to announce their 2022 fall musical The Wizard of Oz! This award-winning musical about believing in yourself, and the eternal struggle between right and wrong, will feature music, scenery, and acting that will knock the Wicked Witch of the West right off her feet! Come join Dorothy, Toto, the Tin Man, Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion as they journey across the Land of Oz in search of the Emerald City and a way to help Dorothy get back to Kansas. Because as we all know, there’s no place like home!

 

Home has been a constant theme in this production. CBNA faculty member and production director Jennifer Moynihan revealed, “The most magical part of watching the process of a show like this unfold is seeing the community the students build up for one another. Our seniors have established a strong work ethic for our underclassmen, but more than that, they have set the tone that our theatre space is a home away from home and all are welcome and appreciated here.”

 

Senior Sam Marcotte spent some time interviewing the cast and crew, to learn more about what motivates them to be a part of the shows. Marcotte, who plays the Scarecrow, also noted that the CBNA Theatre cast and crew prides itself on their feeling of community. Malachi Turner, a freshman who plays the Coroner of Munchkin Land, found CBNA theatre to be extremely welcoming, and already loves the environment and the connections. Sophomores Emery Grady and Ethan Welch, both of whom play in the ensemble, credit the theater with conquering their stage fright, and are looking forward to playing roles in future productions.  According to Marcotte, “Most audience members don’t understand the amount of energy, endurance, and love put into the show they are about to watch. The props and the costumes are lined with our souls, hours upon hours are put out on that stage. The audience will witness this when they come to see our show.”

 

Moynihan made a special point of adding, “One of the central aspects of any CBNA Theatre production is providing a fully immersive learning experience for students. Our technical team has created almost all of the design elements you see on stage, from the costume design to the flowers you see in the land of Oz. We have incredible student choreographers, who are also performers on the stage, who have brought several really fun dance sequences to our production.”

 

Special thanks go to John Moynihan, The Firehouse Center for the Arts, and The Community Players of Concord who loaned costumes and building materials for this production. The CBNA Theatre program’s sincerest gratitude also goes to CBNA faculty members Kolby Hume, Dana Haley, Danielle Muir and their students for their organizational, technical, and artistic talents. Thanks as well to the entire cast and crew, including sound director Benjamin Place ’23, and logo designer Ian Helm ’23.

 

Evening performances will take place Friday, October 28 and Saturday, October 29 at 7 pm, with a matinee performance on Saturday, October 29 at 2 pm. Mobile tickets are available online now via our virtual ticketing program at www.coebrown.org

Tickets will also be available for cash purchase one hour before curtain on the day of the performances. Tickets are $15 for adults, and $10 for students/seniors. This show is appropriate for kids of all ages. Seating is general admission, although special need requests will be honored when possible.

CBNA Student Awarded New Hampshire Seal of Biliteracy

/in /by

“Though she is not a native speaker of Spanish, her work has been exemplary and she scored a perfect score of 5 on the AP exam.” – Jennifer Sommerer, Spanish Language Teacher and President Elect of the New Hampshire chapter of AATSP—American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese

 

Northwood, New Hampshire…Coe-Brown Northwood Academy Headmaster David S. Smith is pleased to announce that senior Emily Huebel has earned the New Hampshire Seal of Biliteracy. Although Huebel is not a native speaker of Spanish, her exemplary class work and perfect score on the AP exam resulted in this important recognition. She will be awarded this distinction at graduation with the Seal of Biliteracy on her diploma. Huebel is CBNA’s first recipient of this prestigious honor.

Huebel has long recognized her interest in languages. Although she never had the opportunity to travel out of the northeastern United States and Canadian Maritimes as a child, she was exposed to the basics of the Spanish language in elementary school at Saint Mary Academy in Dover, NH, and junior high at Strafford School in Strafford, NH. In fact, when her junior high Spanish teacher became her homeroom teacher, Huebel enjoyed the interplay of Spanish in daily homeroom conversations. Huebel notes, “Spanish was cool. I liked learning it, and in junior high it was like a secret code we used with friends.”

The opportunity to pursue Spanish in high school was a welcome one, and Huebel started 9th grade at Coe-Brown in Spanish 2 Honors. She loved the language and how it sounded, expanding her vocabulary whenever possible, and reading Spanish-language articles over and over until she understood them perfectly. The year prior to the AP exam, Huebel’s Spanish teacher, CBNA faculty member Jennifer Sommerer, worked with the students to improve their conversation techniques, listening skills, and understanding of Spanish culture worldwide and its influences. That in-depth immersion made the difference on the AP exam, according to Huebel, allowing her to, in her own words, “get into the zone” and power through all four components of the exam with confidence.

With Biology and a pre-med track on the horizon at St. Michael’s College, Huebel plans to add a double major in Spanish in hopes that when she becomes a doctor, her knowledge of a second language will help her communicate more effectively with all of her patients, especially those in urban centers like Boston, where she hopes to be eventually.

The Seal of Biliteracy is a national award that has been adopted by more than forty other states across the country. The award recognizes students who have studied and attained proficiency in two or more languages by high school graduation. The New Hampshire Seal of Biliteracy award was made possible through collaboration between the NH Association of World Language Teachers (NHAWLT) and the NH Statewide English Learner Educator network. The NH Association of World Language Teachers has agreed to be the stewards of this award.

CBNA Student Receives Silver Medal in 2022 National Scholastic Art & Writing Awards

/in , /by

“We can say for certain then that a program like [The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards] doesn’t just honor artists. It creates them. It nurtures them. It gives them permission to shine brighter, to think differently, to be bolder.” – Jennifer Garner

 

When Coe-Brown Northwood Academy junior Samara Kern sat down to tackle her Flash Fiction writing assignment for her ‘Creative Writing’ class, she was not feeling particularly inspired. Kern notes, “Out of all that I have written, that was not the one that I thought would win anything. That was a surprise.” Kern’s writing piece titled “His Forgetfulness” was one of three works that Kern submitted to the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards at the New Hampshire state level where it won a Gold Key. The same writing piece went on to win a Silver Medal in the National Scholastic Art & Writing Awards.

In “His Forgetfulness,” Kern creates a snapshot into the lives of two old men living in the country, former farmers, who are coping with the passage of time. One of the two men struggles with the onset of what might be dementia, but together, the two of them work together to remember, and in doing so illustrate the power of friendship, companionship, and the power of memory, or in this case, the impact of the lack thereof.

Flash Fiction is characterized as much by its brevity, as the plot and character development required within its short framework. Although Kern excels at flash fiction, she doesn’t see herself as a fiction author, preferring other genres instead. “Personal narrative is easiest, but poetry is my favorite. Fiction, nope. I just don’t see myself as that creative.” The assignment that resulted in this award-winning work gave each student in the class 30 minutes to write only 5-1,500 words, using a teacher-provided photograph as a prompt.

Kern’s teacher for her Creative Writing course, Amy Usinger, a ten-year veteran of the Coe-Brown faculty, was impressed that a sixteen-year-old young woman could so accurately portray the voice of these elderly men. Usinger commented on Kern’s “economy of language and understanding of the breadth of human experience,” and says Kern’s, “mature insight captured the subtlety of gesture for these two men who were so nostalgic over a forty-year friendship that is fading fast.”

When the email from the National Scholastic Art & Writing Awards judges arrived in Kern’s inbox, she was very surprised and promptly texted her parents, “Guess what!” Kern plans to pursue her writing skills through workshops this summer, possibly at New York University or through The Knowledge Society’s Global Virtual Program.

The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards annually recognize student achievement in the visual and literary arts in twenty-eight categories, including drawing and illustration, photography, flash fiction, poetry, film and animation, journalism, and more. Since the program’s founding in 1923, the Awards have fostered the creativity and talent of millions of students, including renowned alumni who have gone on to become leaders in their fields, including Amanda Gorman, Tschabalala Self, Stephen King, Kay WalkingStick, Charles White, Joyce Carol Oates, and Andy Warhol. An Award signifies to parents, teachers, the community and colleges that a student is an accomplished artist or writer. The Awards offer opportunities for creative teens to earn recognition, exhibition, publication and scholarships.

In 2022, only twenty-four students from eight different New Hampshire high schools, both public and private, representing thirty-one written works, received National awards. Each work of art and writing is blindly adjudicated, first locally through the more than 100 affiliates of the Alliance, and then nationally by panels of judges comprised of renowned artists, authors, educators and industry experts. Works are judged on originality, technical skill, and emergence of personal vision or voice.

The National Writing Project in New Hampshire
Founded in 2002, The National Writing Project in New Hampshire is the New Hampshire branch of the National Writing Project. Through a network of teacher leaders, the project works to improve writing instruction throughout the state. Young writers will be published in a regional anthology, Middle/High School Voices, and honored at a spring conference.

Since 1998, the publication Middle/High School Voices has been providing an outlet for publication of New Hampshire’s student writing. In our regional competition, student writers will be recognized by the inclusion of award-winning writing in our regional anthology and at an award ceremony in the spring.
