For Immediate Release:

Four Coe-Brown Northwood Academy Students Awarded

New Hampshire Seal of Biliteracy

 

” None of these students are heritage speakers of Spanish, so they had to work even harder to meet NH state requirements to receive this distinction.”  — 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 four seniors from the Class of 2023 have earned the New Hampshire Seal of Biliteracy. This important recognition was awarded to Molly Sawyer ‘23, Eric Boheen ’23, Isabella Naves ’23, and Geneva Telehala ’23 for their exemplary class work and perfect scores on the AP exam. These students received their award of distinction at graduation with the Seal of Biliteracy on their diplomas. This is the second year in a row that CBNA students have received this prestigious honor, and the first year that the school has had four recipients at one time.

The Spanish AP exam is intense, with four components, including two multiple choice, and two written. In one section, students have to listen to and thoroughly understand an audio component before they can answer the questions. CBNA faculty member Jennifer Sommerer spent the year prior to the AP exam working with the students to improve their conversation techniques, listening skills, and understanding of Spanish culture worldwide and its influences. That in-depth immersion helped these four students complete the AP exam with confidence.

According to Michael Clauss, Dean of CBNA’s World Languages Department, the state of New Hampshire was one of the last in the nation to adopt the Seal of Biliteracy initiative, but finally did thanks to the efforts of a dedicated group of educators from the New Hampshire Association of World Language Teachers, led by then-president Cindi Hodgdon. Clauss commented, “The Coe-Brown World Language Department is proud to have our students be among the first in the state to receive this honor. We see it as yet another way to acknowledge the incredible achievements of our students and provide them with visible proof of their accomplishments that will set them apart from their peers as they head off to college and the workplace.”

CBNA World Languages faculty member and AP teacher Jennifer Sommerer feels the same, “The NH Seal of Biliteracy that these students have received is proof that Coe-Brown Northwood Academy has a robust World Language program that is dedicated to upholding its part of the school’s mission statement of producing ‘graduates who are academically and socially prepared to be responsible, caring and contributing members of the global society.’”

Sommerer goes on to note that, “None of these students are heritage speakers of Spanish, so they had to work even harder to meet NH state requirements to receive this distinction.  Having the seal on their diploma will make them more marketable to future employers since they have received proof of measurable proficiency in a non-native language.  Most of these students plan to work in a field for which proficiency in Spanish is a valuable and/or required skill.  Additionally, Molly Sawyer has plans to minor in Spanish as part of her college program of studies.  On behalf of the World Languages Department, we are very proud of their achievement.”

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.

Forty-six Coe-Brown Students Receive Statewide Recognition in the 2023 Scholastic Writing Awards of New Hampshire

 

Northwood, New Hampshire…Forty-six Coe-Brown Northwood Academy students were recently honored for their excellence in writing in the 2023 Scholastic Writing Awards–An Affiliate Partner of the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers, Inc. These awards are granted upon review by a panel of creative professionals. Since 1923, the awards have provided early recognition for some of the country’s most celebrated authors and artists.

Of the written works submitted by these Coe-Brown students, fifty-eight received statewide recognition in the form of twelve Gold Keys, twenty-six Silver Keys, and twenty Honorable Mentions. These pieces of writing included short stories, flash fiction, personal essays & memoirs, critical essays and poetry.

One of the twelve Gold Key works, a poem titled Posthistory by Coe-Brown senior Sydney Smith of Strafford, New Hampshire, was also one of only five works in the state to be nominated for the American Voices award. Smith’s brief yet poignant poem reflects on life’s before and after, creating a retrospective image of the author’s thoughts on the physical evidence of death and the march of time. Smith’s English teacher, CBNA faculty member Amy Usinger, noted, “Sydney’s an old soul. I was not surprised to see her literary works celebrated as enthusiastically as her visual art has been.” Jurors consider many factors in their review for these special awards, including the, “recognition of talent and the representation of diverse mediums, viewpoints, and backgrounds.”

Smith received three Gold Keys in total from the Scholastic Writing Awards for two works of poetry and a short story. She also recently received one Gold Key, two Silver Keys, and two Honorable Mentions from the Scholastic Art Awards of New Hampshire, where her Gold Key art was also nominated for Best of Show recognition. Smith plans to attend Keene State college next year where she intends to study graphic design.

The Scholastic Art Awards of New Hampshire

The Scholastic Art Awards of New Hampshire (SAANH) is a regional visual arts affiliate of the prestigious national Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. Each year in September, the call goes out from SAANH to all New Hampshire’s Art Educators, grades 7-12, to register and submit their outstanding student artwork.

 

There are seventeen individual categories that students may enter work in. They range from Drawing and Painting to Sculpture and Mixed Media. Seniors may also submit a body of six pieces of work in a portfolio to compete for a number of cash and scholarships.

 

The SAANH believes that a moment of positive recognition can inspire a student to pursue a lifetime of creative expression.  It is critical to provide each emerging generation of creative leaders with early encouragement and to support artistic development.  Acknowledging that these skills are best nurtured in an environment in which creativity is valued, it is also essential to recognize and reward educators for their classroom efforts to encourage creativity, and to cultivate support for young artists.

Coe-Brown Northwood Academy Students Receive Recognition from the 2023 College Board National Recognition Programs

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.

CBNA Theatre Presents- The Wizard of Oz

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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.
