SUMMARY:The Well-Balanced Porter’s Student
DESCRIPTION:Last year\, students at Miss Porter’s School participated in the Challenge Success–Stanford Survey of School Experiences\, which offered a window into their experience of school. In this virtual session\, we’ll review the key findings from the survey and consider the implications for our community. \nWe’ll also explore the impact of broader trends in education on our students’ lives – from pressures around homework to grades and college admissions – and consider the deliberate steps Porter’s is taking to ensure that our students are not only prepared but healthy and equipped to navigate the challenges facing adolescents today. \nYou’ll leave with practical\, research-based tips for how you can support balance at home and partner with the school in creating a healthy\, meaningful educational journey for your child.

SUMMARY:Ancient Book Club Discussion: "Lessons in Chemistry" by Bonnie Garmus
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the Miss Porter’s School Alumnae Board Connections & Events Committee \nJoin your fellow Ancients for a discussion of the book “Lessons in Chemistry” by Bonnie Garmus. \n“Feminism is the catalyst that makes [this story] fizz like hydrochloric acid on limestone. . . . Beyond the entertaining subplots and witty dialogue is the hard truth that\, in 1961\, a smart\, ambitious woman had limited options. . . . To file Elizabeth Zott among the pink razors of the book world is to miss the sharpness of Garmus’s message. Lessons in Chemistry will make you wonder about all the real-life women born ahead of their time—women who were sidelined\, ignored and worse because they weren’t as resourceful\, determined and lucky as Elizabeth Zott. She’s a reminder of how far we’ve come\, but also how far we still have to go.” — Elisabeth Egan\, The New York Times Book Review \nLearn more about the novel here.  \n
