Description
Newsletter, Vol. 10 No. 1, 5 August 1982
As was typical of the late-summer issues of the newsletter from Headmaster Robert C. Goodman, Jr., this August 5, 1982, issue included the dates and times for events scheduled around the opening of the school year. An interesting addition was the list of newly-elected members of the Board of Directors, and a note of thanks to those retiring from the board. Also included was a detailed list of upcoming practice sessions for varsity field hockey and soccer (boys).
Newsletter, Vol. 10 No. 2, 14 October 1982
This issue of the newsletter, distributed in mid-October 1982, was the first since late August, and was extremely lengthy and full of information. Along with announcements of club officers, new faculty, new library book donations, athletic successes, and a homecoming recap, this issue included notice of an annual giving telethon and challenge gift.
Newsletter, Vol. 10 No. 3, 15 November 1982
The newsletter recognized the varsity football team for a second-place Prep League finish. A $5,000 grant from the Flagler Foundation had been used for "additional mini computers." Headmaster Robert C. Goodman, Jr. invited parents of 8th, 9th and 10th grade students to a meeting for "an open discussion of the social scene of our young people."
Newsletter, Vol. 10 No. 4, 17 December 1982
Athletic success continued with an undefeated season by the boys' soccer team, which earned its first Prep League championship. This issue of the newlestter also touched on fundraising efforts beyond the customary sales and events: the annual giving campaign, which was pursuing unrestricted gifts; and the donation of 27 bonds (debentures), issued to raise capital for the founding of the school in 1971-1972.
Newsletter, Vol. 10 No. 5, 11 February 1983
The newsletter from Headmaster Robert C. Goodman, Jr. had become a less-frequent communications tool. This issue, from February 1983, was only the 4th published since the start of the school year in September. It was, however, lengthy and content-rich. It included the good news of a foundation grant for library acquisitions, and the less-upbeat news of the struggle to reach the annual giving challenge of $10,000.
