How did The Episcopal Academy evolve from its founding in 1785 to become a leading coeducational institution. What key milestones shaped its development over more than two centuries. How does the school maintain its commitment to academic excellence and holistic education in the modern era.
The Founding and Early Years of The Episcopal Academy
The Episcopal Academy, founded in 1785 by the Rt. Rev. William White, stands as one of the oldest educational institutions in the United States. Established just nine years after the country gained independence, the school’s inception coincided with a period of immense national growth and change.
Initially an all-boys school, The Episcopal Academy’s curriculum focused on classical languages, religion, and mathematics. This rigorous academic foundation set the stage for the school’s future commitment to excellence in education.
Notable figures were involved in the school’s early years:
- Two signers of the Declaration of Independence served as trustees
- The faculty included Noah Webster Jr., renowned for his dictionary work
- Bankers, merchants, and reverends contributed to the school’s governance
Navigating Challenges and Growth in the 19th Century
The Episcopal Academy’s journey through the 19th century was marked by periods of both struggle and resurgence. How did the school adapt to changing circumstances?
- 1798: Reconstituted as a free school
- 1816: Became a Second Classical Academy
- 1828: Returned to free school status
- 1846: Reconstituted again, beginning a period of continuous operation
These transitions reflect the school’s resilience and ability to evolve in response to societal needs and economic pressures. The Episcopal Academy’s commitment to providing quality education remained constant, even as its structure changed.
A New Home and Expanded Reach
In 1850, The Episcopal Academy moved to a new building at Juniper and Locust Street in Philadelphia. This location would serve as the school’s home for over 70 years, solidifying its presence in the city’s educational landscape.
The 20th Century: Expansion and Coeducation
The 20th century brought significant changes to The Episcopal Academy, propelling it into the modern era of education. What were the key developments during this transformative period?
- 1921: Relocation to the Merion campus
- 1974: Establishment of a new lower school in Devon
- 1974: Transition to coeducation begins
- 1984: First coeducational class graduates
The shift to coeducation was a carefully planned strategic move. Girls were initially admitted to the Devon campus kindergarten class in 1974, with each subsequent incoming class including female students. This gradual integration ensured a smooth transition to a fully coeducational environment.
The Impact of Coeducation
How did the move to coeducation affect The Episcopal Academy? The decision to admit girls reflected changing societal norms and educational philosophies. It broadened the school’s reach and enriched the learning environment by providing diverse perspectives and experiences for all students.
A New Era: The Newtown Square Campus
As The Episcopal Academy continued to grow, it became clear that the Merion and Devon campuses could no longer accommodate the school’s expanding needs. The dawn of the 21st century brought a bold vision for the future:
- A 123-acre tract of land in Newtown Square was purchased
- A $20 million donation kickstarted the ambitious project
- The total campus project cost $212.5 million
- The new campus opened for the 2008-2009 school year
What features does the Newtown Square campus offer? The state-of-the-art facility boasts cutting-edge academic spaces, advanced arts facilities, top-tier athletic venues, and dedicated spiritual areas. This comprehensive campus design supports The Episcopal Academy’s commitment to nurturing the whole student.
Honoring Tradition in a Modern Setting
While embracing modernity, The Episcopal Academy took care to preserve its rich history. Several elements from the Merion and Devon campuses were incorporated into the new Newtown Square location:
- Original stained glass windows in the Class of 1944 Chapel
- The historic clock now standing on the Clark Campus Green
- Various artifacts displayed in the Crawford Campus Center
These tangible links to the past serve as reminders of the school’s enduring legacy and values.
Academic Excellence in the 21st Century
How does The Episcopal Academy maintain its tradition of academic rigor in today’s educational landscape? The school offers a comprehensive and challenging curriculum designed to prepare students for success in higher education and beyond.
Key components of the modern Episcopal Academy education include:
- Advanced Placement (AP) classes across multiple disciplines
- Opportunities for international study and cultural exchange
- Interdisciplinary programs that foster critical thinking and creativity
- Online courses taught by internationally renowned faculty
This diverse array of academic offerings ensures that students are well-equipped to navigate the complexities of the global marketplace and higher education.
Beyond Academics: A Holistic Approach
The Episcopal Academy’s commitment to developing well-rounded individuals extends beyond the classroom. Students benefit from:
- A vibrant arts program encompassing visual arts, music, and theater
- Competitive athletics that foster teamwork and physical well-being
- Spiritual programs that encourage reflection and personal growth
This multifaceted approach to education helps students discover their passions and develop into confident, capable adults.
Athletic Excellence and Opportunities
The Episcopal Academy has a strong tradition of athletic achievement. How does the school support its student-athletes? The school’s commitment to sports is evident in its state-of-the-art facilities and comprehensive program offerings.
For girls interested in soccer, The Episcopal Academy offers exceptional opportunities:
- Caroline Mark (Midfielder, Class of 2022)
- Lauren Gage (Defender, Class of 2022)
- Maya Naimoli (Goalkeeper, Class of 2023)
- Gardner Huston (Midfielder, Class of 2025)
- Alexa Cohen (Midfielder, Class of 2023)
- Isabella Piselli (Midfielder, Class of 2022)
- Kendal Elison (Midfielder, Class of 2022)
These talented athletes represent just a small sample of the school’s sporting prowess. The Episcopal Academy encourages students to pursue their athletic passions while maintaining a strong focus on academic achievement.
Financial Accessibility and Commitment to Diversity
In an era of economic challenges, how does The Episcopal Academy ensure access to its exceptional education? The school has taken a bold stance by maintaining a “need-blind” admission policy, even in the face of economic recessions.
This commitment to financial accessibility is crucial, given the economic realities facing many American families:
- The middle class, defined as households earning between $19,000 and $91,000 annually, comprises the majority of U.S. households
- Incomes for 90% of Americans have remained stagnant for at least a generation
- Economic challenges disproportionately affect lower and middle-class families
By remaining need-blind, The Episcopal Academy demonstrates its dedication to providing opportunities for talented students regardless of their financial circumstances. This approach helps maintain a diverse student body, enriching the educational experience for all.
The Value of a Diverse Community
Why is socioeconomic diversity important in an educational setting? A diverse student body brings varied perspectives and experiences to the classroom, preparing students for the increasingly globalized world they will enter after graduation. By ensuring access for students from all economic backgrounds, The Episcopal Academy fosters an inclusive environment that benefits every member of its community.
The school’s commitment to need-blind admissions also aligns with its founding principles of providing quality education to a broad range of students. This policy helps maintain the institution’s historical mission while adapting to contemporary challenges.
Looking to the Future: The Episcopal Academy’s Ongoing Evolution
As The Episcopal Academy approaches its 240th anniversary, how does it continue to innovate and adapt? The school’s history demonstrates a remarkable ability to evolve while maintaining its core values and commitment to excellence.
Key areas of focus for the future include:
- Embracing technological advancements in education
- Expanding global learning opportunities
- Enhancing sustainability initiatives on campus
- Continuing to diversify the student body and faculty
- Strengthening community partnerships and outreach programs
By addressing these areas, The Episcopal Academy aims to prepare students not just for college, but for the rapidly changing world they will inherit as adults.
The Enduring Legacy of The Episcopal Academy
What makes The Episcopal Academy unique in the landscape of American education? Its combination of historical significance, academic rigor, and forward-thinking approach sets it apart. From its founding in the early days of the United States to its current position as a leading coeducational institution, The Episcopal Academy has consistently demonstrated a commitment to excellence and adaptability.
As it moves forward, the school continues to honor its past while embracing the future. The blend of tradition and innovation creates an educational environment that is both grounded and dynamic, preparing students to become thoughtful, engaged citizens of the world.
The Episcopal Academy’s journey from a small boys’ school in Philadelphia to a renowned coeducational institution in Newtown Square is a testament to the power of vision, perseverance, and a unwavering commitment to educational excellence. As it continues to evolve, the school remains true to its founding principles while adapting to meet the needs of each new generation of students.
Our History – Episcopal Academy, The
It was 1785. A mere nine years after the United States gained independence from Britain, the Rt. Rev. William White founded The Episcopal Academy in Philadelphia.
Initially an all-boys school, The Episcopal Academy offered a curriculum focused on classical languages, religion, and mathematics. Trustees included two signers of the Declaration of Independence, as well as bankers, merchants, and reverends. The faculty was composed of notable figures like Noah Webster Jr. of Webster Dictionaries.
In its first 60 years, The Episcopal Academy endured tumultuous periods of debt and resurgence. It was first reconstituted as a free school in 1798, but then became a Second Classical Academy in 1816 and a free school again in 1828.
In 1846, The Episcopal Academy was again reconstituted and has operated continuously since. In 1850, the school moved to a building at Juniper and Locust Street, and remained there until its 1921 move to the Merion campus.
This major change would be followed fifty-three years later with the addition of a new lower school in Devon, as well as the transition to a coeducational learning environment.
The shift to coeducation was the product of years of strategic planning. Girls were admitted to Devon’s kindergarten class in 1974, and would be added to each year’s incoming class thereafter until the school was fully coeducational. The first coeducational class graduated from The Episcopal Academy in 1984.
Over the next few decades, The Episcopal Academy would outgrow its Merion and Devon campuses. A 123-acre tract of land in Newtown Square was purchased with a $20 million donation, and the $212.5 million campus project would be completed in time to open for the 2008-2009 school year.
Today’s Newtown Square campus boasts state-of-the-art academic, arts, athletic, and spiritual facilities. However, it also features keepsakes from the Merion and Devon campuses: original stained glass windows in the Class of 1944 Chapel, the clock that currently stands on the Clark Campus Green, and several artifacts in the Crawford Campus Center.
Today, students enjoy a rigorous curriculum that includes Advanced Placement (AP) classes, opportunities to study abroad, interdisciplinary study, and online courses with internationally renowned faculty. They are enriched by vibrant arts, dominant athletics, and inspiring spiritual programs.

Episcopal Academy is officially “need blind” despite economic recession – E-Scholium
Alex Rice ‘13
The present economic recession in the United States has impacted every American, but none have felt the recession’s sting more than the lower and middle classes. Last year, the Congressional Research Service defined the middle class as having an income between “$19,000 a year and $91,000 a year.” Under this definition, the middle class comprises the majority of American households in the U.S. According to CNN, “Incomes for 90% of Americans have been stuck in neutral, and it’s not just because of the recession. Middle-class incomes have been stagnant for at least a generation.” Outsourcing and the decline of labor unions are just two of many additional reasons for this trend. The housing crisis has further hurt the middle class by wiping out many Americans’ savings. In addition, job availability since 2008 has fallen. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate peaked at 10 percent in 2008 and has since slowly declined to a still stark 8.5 percent. The vast majority of those to lose jobs have been members of the middle class – further burdening their financial situation.
Episcopal Academy, although located in one of the wealthiest areas of the country, has not been sheltered from the consequences of these trends. The Episcopal Academy tuition for high school is over $28,000 annually. Although private school tuition is an expense many families are unable or unwilling to pay, Episcopal has dedicated itself to sustaining economic diversity as well as other forms of diversity on campus. Episcopal believes that diversity both enriches the learning experience for all students and offers greater opportunities for education and success than might be readily available to some people. For this reason, the Episcopal Academy has been making every effort to offer financial aid to families of applicants who, though able to get in to Episcopal, might not be able to afford it. Unfortunately, when many people are researching Episcopal Academy for application, they become “sticker shocked” by the high price of tuition. This shock often drives away prospective applicants, but EA’s expectation is not for everyone to pay full tuition, but rather for families to pay what they can afford. The external contractor School and Student Services (SSS) used by all private schools in the United States assesses what a family is able to pay and notifies Episcopal of this number. For example, if SSS assessed that a family could pay $10,000, Episcopal would attempt to cover the remaining $18,000. Bradley Cates, CFO of Episcopal, said, “If there are sufficient funds in the Financial Aid budget, EA will fund the student to attend.”
Unfortunately, the funds are not always available and some students must be turned away or wait-listed until the funds become available. The financial aid budget comprises 13 percent of Episcopal’s total budget, around $5 million. Justin Brandon, VI Form Dean, explained that Episcopal is officially “need blind.” This means that the entire financial aid process occurs after the admissions process. This dissuades admissions officials from taking financial need into consideration when determining if a student is worthy of admission to Episcopal.
According to a resent presentation by Cates at a town hall meeting hosted by the school, Episcopal’s Financial Aid Philosophy states, “The Episcopal Academy’s need based financial aid program enables students to attend the Academy regardless of a family’s ability to pay full tuition. ”
Perhaps the most important phrase in this statement is “need based.” Financial aid is based on need, not merit. Regardless of intelligence, if a family does not need financial aid, they will not receive it. Aside from SSS’s assessment, part of Episcopal’s official Financial Aid Policy, presented by Cates at the same town hall meeting reads, “…a family must look to all available resources…before and in addition to requesting financial aid from the school. [Also]…certain lifestyle choices must be examined when a family applies for financial aid.”
Another important factor of financial aid is diversity. Much like highly selective colleges “craft” classes that better the school, “EA tries to diversify its student body in the belief that diversity creates better learning opportunities for every student,” said Cates.
“Diversity” encompasses race and gender, but also socioeconomic status. Cates further explained, “The goal is to create a balanced school with input from the broadest possible spectrum of people – going beyond finding the best and brightest in an attempt to create the best learning situations possible. ”
About 20% of families that attend Episcopal receive financial aid of some amount. The current recession explains a relatively new trend: middle class families that at one point could or would have been able to afford the tuition now may not be able to due to the economy. Rachel Tilney, Head of Admissions, said, “Families have become very careful about how they spend their money. Admissions at Episcopal have not been affected as much as at our peer schools, but I think we see fewer people than we did in the past. There are also families that in a better economy wouldn’t have applied for aid that are now because of economic factors.”
Mr. Brandon corroborated this point, stating, “Giving financial aid has become a bigger factor at EA because of the rough economic times.”
Recent school closings in our area further illustrate the need for the increase in financial aid given to families at Episcopal. The Archdiocese of Philadelphia recently announced that it will be closing four of its high schools and 44 of its elementary schools. Schools Episcopal competes against in sports and other activities such as Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast were recently informed that their schools will be shut down at the end of this year. Although these schools are part of the Catholic school system, which is run differently than Episcopal, a private independent school, reasons for these closures are familiar. According to NBC 10 Philadelphia, “The schools have suffered for years from rising costs and dwindling enrollment. Higher tuition, shifting demographics and the rise of charter schools have siphoned off many students.”
Episcopal recognizes these economic trends and is making every effort to provide aid to those who need it. Junior Patrick McCarthy remarked, “EA is an institution that searches for the best students possible. Unfortunately, the economy has made EA inaccessible to some families – namely the middle class. For this reason, economic aid is necessary to maintain EA as a diverse and superior institution. ”
One student who wishes to remain anonymous said, “I think that EA should focus on what’s best for the school economically, not always on what socioeconomic diversity they can create.”
Junior David Burke said, “EA should give aid to the families who need it and the students who deserve it.”
Episcopal Academy and Greenwich Academy Continue High School Dominance
Episcopal’s Tyler Odell (Above) has played Cooper Briggs (Below) of Brunswick twice in the finals of the Division I U.S. High School Squash Championships, and both times Odell and Episcopal came out on top. In 2009, the freshmen squared off at No. 5, and this year at No. 2.
Episcopal Academy (PA) and Greenwich Academy (CT) once again proved too strong for the rest of the field as they won the Division 1 titles at the 2012 U.S. High School Team Squash Championships. For Episcopal, this is their fourth straight Boy’s championship while Greenwich has now taken home the Girl’s crown five straight years. After three full days of competition and over 2000 matches, then national champions were crowned in Connecticut. With 155 teams and 1240 players representing 16 states, the U.S. High School Championships was once again the largest squash tournament in the world.

Four for Episcopal
By Tyler Odell, Episcopal ’12
After our team won our fourth match to clinch the National High School Team Championship, I sat at the top of the bleachers watching the final match. I thought back over my five years playing in this competition. My first year on the team, Woody Hillyard was our captain, Penn Charter (Philadelphia) was the dominant team that year, and I played kids like David Hilton (Cornell), Parker Hurst (Middlebury) and Kevin Chen (Williams). We knew we couldn’t win that year, but we had a No. 1 player in Todd Harrity to look up to for inspiration.
In 2009, we played Brunswick over Thanksgiving weekend and lost. Todd and our coaches used that as incentive to push us harder—we won our league and went on to nationals. Of course as fate would have it, Brunswick and Episcopal met in the finals. I was on the glass court first, with the biggest crowd I had ever played in front of. I was playing another freshman, Cooper Briggs. Somehow I pulled out a win after getting killed in the first game. That set Episcopal off to a 6-1 victory. It was the greatest feeling in the world. We really wanted to win for Todd. He had achieved everything in squash, and we wanted him to finish off his high school career with the one national championship he hadn’t won.
In 2010, we won with Brandon McLaughlin and Trey Simpson as our captains. We played Chestnut Hill Academy in the finals, a team from our league and one that we always need to be ready for.
Last year, led by seniors Andrew McGuiness and Xander Greer, we played Taft in the finals. They have a great program with a few foreign players at the top of their ladder. I remember Taft School for their good sportsmanship and fierce competition.
So now it is my senior year and I, along with classmates John Heil and Billy Kacergis, felt the pressure to continue winning. Our team has an incredible junior class with Kevin Flannery, Devin McLaughlin, Patrick McCarthy and Jamie Ruggiero; a super sophomore in Andrew Stone; and three great freshmen in Clark Doyle, Will Ruggiero and Sean Hughes. We had a great season leading up to nationals, but we felt like we had to win the championship to finish the year. After some tough early competition, we reached the finals against Brunswick. I played first on the glass court against Cooper Briggs, just like freshman year. Cooper is one of the nicest guys I have ever played, and we had a long, tight match that I was lucky to win. Our team went on to clinch the championship 5-2—my last U.S. Squash event. I always put away the squash racquet for a lacrosse stick at this time of year. It is an incredible way to end the season and my high school squash career. The competition is always strong and sportsmanship after a match is always commendable. This is the tournament I look forward to every year for the competition, intense atmosphere, and the bonding that goes along with spending the weekend with my team. I hope next year another Episcopal kid will write a story about how it is to win five years in a row.
Deerfield Girls Squash at HS Nationals: Gaining momentum and building lifetime memories
By Hunter Sechrest Deerfield ’13
Flying down the center of the stadium steps to Yale’s Court No. 1 for the finals of High School Nationals was unquestionably the highlight of the team squash season. It was a very specific moment in time—a culmination of months of training, but more importantly, it was the moment at which we were most tightly bonded, forming a joint lifetime team memory among close friends.
After facing some very tough opponents, particularly the No. 3 seeded Baldwin in the semifinals, we were happy to be there, facing top-seeded Greenwich Academy on center court. It was the dream, unfolding as reality. We knew that GA, as always, would be a major challenge, particularly with four top college-recruited seniors in the starting lineup. While the February air was crisp outside Payne Whitney gym, it was even sharper inside. We had the support of ardent family members and the Deerfield boys team in one small corner of the bleachers on the right, and GA had the very enthusiastic and vocal support of three HS National GA girls teams, three Brunswick boys teams and their extended entourage overflowing the left. Furthermore, many of our squash friends, and parents from other teams, were hanging over the balcony showering their encouragement to both sides from above. On court, you could barely hear the score. And during game breaks, the entire crowd instantaneously shifted from Court 1 to a crammed Court 2 to follow the drama.
Greenwich Academy’s Lindsey Scott (L) needed four games to win at No. 2 against Deerfield Academy’s Victoria Dewey in the Div. 1 championship match, won by GA, 6-1.
We were clearly the underdogs but had gained considerable skill and team momentum as compared to the 2010 HS Nationals when we lost in the quarters, and 2011 when we also faced-off against GA in the finals. Last year we were squarely beaten but were delighted to be there, our first HS National Finals. Since 10 beautiful courts were completed at Deerfield in 2007, we were building toward that goal. The Deerfield courts are a magical place where warm sunlight streams through enormous windows that overlook the verdant Pocumtuck Valley, and our classmates often come to avidly cheer us on. It was also the site of the New England Championships last year where Deerfield narrowly defeated GA, 4-3.
Last year, we lost three starting seniors including the leading, co-captain Dewey twins, Hallie and Charlotte, who now play at Princeton and Middlebury. But we gained three extraordinary underclassmen, Samantha Chai, Carey Danforth and Lindsey Dewey, all top-ranked juniors. And more importantly, we continue to develop as teammates and friends.
Deerfield squash is so much more than squash. Not only do we travel together each week for team matches, often singing on the bus, but we regularly make a point to attend tournaments together. Since there are no Saturday classes at Deerfield, and with the support of faculty, we generally attend several matches during class weeks and often play during school breaks. Coach Heise has been most supportive of our efforts, fostering a very close-knit team and helping us to build our competitive edge. Last New Year’s Eve weekend most of us played the Mass Open at Groton where the parents rented a house, and we had about as much fun as is possible on the night before a match. Who knew that eating 12 grapes at midnight, concurrent with the strike of the neighboring church bell à la the Spanish tradition, could be so riotous? Furthermore, many of us traveled to Europe last summer to play tournaments coached jointly by Nadeem Osman. We also train together after school activities and on weekends in the fall. Most importantly, we encourage each other to be our best selves both on the courts and off. Whether eating together at the Greer, or warming up with the latest rap music blaring on the courts or getting ready for the Saturday dance, we are each other’s greatest supporters.
So, just getting to the finals of HS Nationals again was a wonderful team accomplishment. The first two players went on and the crowd went wild. After the first two matches it was DA-1 and GA-1. Such excitement was in the air. Many of the matches were extremely tight, including highlights like DA’s Addie Fulton against Isabelle Dowling, which was 15-17 in the second game and 14-12 in the fourth with Isabelle winning. This compares to last year when Addie was beaten by Isabelle in three rather short games. Also, while GA’s Nina Scott kept Emily Jones at bay, the games were quite close. Similarly, DA Captain Tori Dewey was tight on Lindsey Scott’s heels with four long games. DA’s Carey Danforth won the first and went 10-12 in the third against Sarah Haig. I won in three against Skylar Murphy. While the outcome was ultimately 6-1 to Greenwich, many of the matches felt as if they could have gone either way. Though disappointed, we came in as a great team and left with our heads held jointly high.
Squash, in most ways, is an individual sport. And that is part of what makes it such a great athletic experience. When you are on court, it is just you, your opponent and a tiny black ball—nothing else. When you are at High School Nationals, it’s different; your team is out there on court with you. There is nothing else like it.
A Novice Team’s Journey to U.S. High School Nationals!
By Kamran Jamil, The Bishop’s School ’14
I still remember the day in the fall of 2011, when our Bishop’s Squash Team coach, Renato Paiva, recommended that we enter the 2012 U. S. High School National Championships. We could not believe it—we were just starting our 3rd season playing this sport and we were presented the opportunity to play in a National tournament as a team.
The Bishop’s Squash Club was started in November of 2009 as a school club-sport and, since then, we have practiced year-round and competed locally. Overall, the scarcity of squash courts in San Diego, coupled with the distance from both our schools and homes, has been a hurdle for members of the team and has sometimes dictated whether they could commit to squash as a year-round sport. This, however, did not stop the majority of our team from continuing to practice throughout the year and, with each sea- son, our team became incrementally stronger through both returning players and new teammates eager to contribute.
With the announcement of the U.S. High School National Tournament, our team was incredibly excited to join. Within a short span of time, we had already compiled a team of eight enthusiastic players to compete in Division VI for The Bishop’s School.
As the eagerly anticipated day of February 2nd came upon us, we packed our squash gear and clothes, and headed off to New Haven with a feeling of nervous excitement. Talking with my fellow teammates at the airport, we all realized a similar question running through our minds: how would we fare against other high school teams coming from different parts of the U.S.?
It took us an almost 8-hour plane flight and drive to travel nearly 3,000 miles from San Diego to Connecticut. The next day, our team experienced an adrenaline rush arriving outside the grand Payne Whitney Gym at Yale—the intense pressure to play to our best level was on. After adjusting to the new courts and setting, we began our matches. The first match was lost by a narrow 4-3; a loss that I remember feeling was my fault as my game was a defining moment in the outcome of the match. My teammates, however, were supportive and helpful of each other and myself and allowed us to continue past our loss, which had placed us in the consolation rounds. By the first match at the tournament, our sense of togetherness and bond had exponentially increased. It was at this point in our trip that we realized an important fact: winning or losing, we would play in this tournament at our best individual levels and have a fun experience together.
We continued playing in the consolations and played three other matches, and were successful in winning two of them.
Throughout the weekend, each player on our team put up their best games and behavior, and everyone had taken the losses with grace. Due to this amazing experience that was shared by both the players and coaches, our team was definitely more closely connected. We learned how to win and lose together, and the experiences we shared have become invaluable memories.
Our restrictive friendships among the team that we had coming into the tournament were soon dissolved and new relationships formed throughout the trip transcended the previous age and social barriers that separated us. Our views on winning as equal to happiness were long erased; we received the ranking of 10th yet still had a blast of fun on the courts, at meals, and during the free time we had.
Coming out of the tournament, our team was more than just a collection of friends. We were a family that shared a common passion—squash.
Kamran Jamil is the Co-Captain of The Bishop’s Squash Team and a sophomore at The Bishop’s School, located in La Jolla, California.

Initially, there were two theories, according to one were Adam and Eve, according to the other, the monkey accidentally noticed that hitting a neighbor with a stick is much more painful.Both theories agree on one thing – a person has to work, “and in the sweat of his brow get his bread.” Further, laziness moved progress forward, and the bright goal of working less, and living better at the same time, illuminated the path of technical progress with an inextinguishable beacon.
It cannot be denied that since the days of subsistence economy and nomadic cattle breeding, a considerable path has been passed, and the main way to achieve material progress of mankind has been and remains the division of labor and specialization.
The transition from a subsistence economy to industrial production increased labor efficiency by several orders of magnitude, and this is a fact.However, the dynamics of specialization is not weakening even now, moreover, a further increase in efficiency is primarily associated with even greater specialization.
So, from the general trend, let’s move on to a particular consideration of the question, where does electronics in general and network equipment come from, as a special case of electronics in particular.
I have repeatedly come across the fact that when the words “equipment manufacturer” are used, the imagination of most citizens draws steel and glass cases filled with people in white coats, thousands of square meters of production space, strange cars, flashes on display screens …
Of course, there are plenty of cases, areas and cars, but the world has changed, and the very concept of “manufacturer” is now somewhat outdated.I would like to briefly describe the model by which the microelectronics industry is now living and this will answer many questions, starting with “why is a Chinese switch costing half the sum of the cost of its components?” and ending with “Why is not all the same things produced in Russia?”
So the overture is over, and the first act is about to begin. Cast:
The technology developer is the one who drives progress. Most of the technologies will not survive the next spring, but from this diversity, Darwin’s methods crystallize what the people need.These are laboratories of private companies, universities, independent research companies and government agencies. Talented loners and indestructible inventors of “perpetum mobile” stand a little aside. 03/20/2005
90,000 Prayer for Owen Meany. Irving John. Book. Read online.
What I remember best is Episcopal Sunday School. Both Owen and I were newbies there. When my mother married another man she met on the train, she and I changed churches.We left the Congregational to go to my stepfather’s church, ”Mom said, he was an episcopal, and although I never saw any evidence that he was truly an extremely zealous bishop, Mom insisted that we go to his church. This change alarmed my grandmother a lot, because we Whelwrights have been members of the Congregational Church ever since we ended our Puritanism (“ever since we almost ended our Puritanism,” Grandmother said, because In her opinion, Puritanism has never completely lost its influence on us Whelwrights).Some of the Wilwrights — and not just our founding father — were themselves clergy; in the last century – to the clergy of the Congregational Church. This change also greatly upset our pastor, the Reverend Lewis Merrill; After all, he baptized me, and now he was simply inconsolable at the thought that his choir would lose my mother. He knew her from a young age and, as she never tired of repeating, supported her with all his might when she, as usual calmly and benevolently, declared that my origin did not concern anyone.
This change of the church, as will be seen later, was not very easy for me. But Owen, when he wanted to sound mysterious, had a habit of hinting at something so creepy and terrible that it cannot even be mentioned. He, according to him, changed the church TO ESCAPE THE CATHOLICS – or rather, in fact, it was his father who escaped from them and went against them, sending Owen to Sunday school to be confirmed in the Episcopal Church. There is nothing special about a Congregationalist becoming an episcopal, Owen said; it is just a step “up” to more ritual, to all these FOCUS, as he put it.For a Catholic, on the other hand, going to the Episcopal Church is not just about giving up FOCUS; such a transition can incur eternal damnation. Owen darkly hinted that his father would undoubtedly be cursed for starting this transition, but, on the other hand, the Catholics inflicted on them INCREDIBLE INSURANCE – they irreparably offended his father and mother.
When I began to complain about kneeling down during an episcopal service – and this was new to me, not to mention the numerous litanies and the recitation of the Creed – Owen replied that I still didn’t know much.Catholics, they say, not only kneel down and mumble litanies without stopping, but they have so ritualized any attempt to turn to God, which prevents him, Owen, from praying – they prevent him from talking to God, as he put it, DIRECTLY. And what is confession worth! You see, I complain that I have to kneel, and what do I know about confessing my sins? Owen insisted that the inevitability of confession for a Catholic put such pressure on him that he often deliberately did something bad in order to get forgiveness later.
– But this is idiocy! – I said.
Owen agreed with me. And why there was a disagreement between the Catholic Church and Mr. Mini, I often asked. But Owen never answered. You can’t fix anything, he repeated every time. All he could say boiled down to one thing: INCREDIBLE INSURANCE.
Perhaps out of the chagrin of going from Congregational to Episcopal — amid the triumph of Owen RUNNING the Catholics — I took such pleasure in raising Owen.It seems to me now that we were all guilty, believing that he exists solely for our entertainment; but as for me – my fault, I think, is also that I envied him, and especially within the walls of the Episcopal Church. It seems to me that my participation in bullying Owen in Sunday school smacked of vindictiveness: he believed more than me, and although I always felt it, I felt it most acutely in church. I disliked the bishops: they seemed to have more faith — or more — than the Congregationalists; and since my faith was very small, it was more convenient for me with the Congregationalists: they require minimal participation from the believers.
Owen also disliked bishops, but he disliked them much less than Catholics; in his opinion, both of them have less faith than his own – but Catholics, more than bishops, interfered in his beliefs and spiritual practice. He was my best friend, and we forgive our best friends for being different from us. It was only when we were in the same Sunday school and the same church that I had to admit that my friend’s faith is much stronger, if not more dogmatic than anything that I have come across before – both in Congregational and Episcopal churches.
I do not remember the Sunday School at the Congregational Church at all, although my mother claimed that I always ate a lot there – both in the Sunday school itself and at various celebrations for parishioners. I very vaguely remember biscuits and cider, but very distinctly – with an unusual kind of even winter clarity – I remember a white, wood-paneled church, a black tower clock and a service that was always held on the second floor, with good lighting and in a relaxed atmosphere, as if in some prayer house.Branches of tall trees were visible through the tall windows. In the Episcopal Church, on the other hand, the service took place in the semi-basement gloom. This church was built of stone, and there was a musty smell everywhere, like in a cellar; a multitude of old wooden utensils were piled around, the dull gold of the organ pipes gleamed gloomily, and through the bizarre motley stained-glass windows it was impossible to see a single twig.
When I complained about the church, these were ordinary childish complaints – it’s scary and boring.But Owen’s grudge was religiously motivated. “EVERY PERSON BELIEVES HIS OWN, – said Owen Meany. – WHAT IS BAD IN THE CHURCH – SO IT IS A SERVICE. THE SERVICE IS CONDUCTED IMMEDIATELY FOR THE WHOLE MASS OF THE PEOPLE. As soon as I start to like the anthem, everyone else is slapping on their knees and praying. AS ONLY I LISTEN TO PRAYER, EVERYONE JUMPS AND STARTS SINGING. AND TO TAKE AT LEAST THIS STUPID SERMON – WHAT DOES IT HAVE RELATIONSHIP TO GOD? WHO KNOWS WHAT GOD REALLY THINKS ABOUT CURRENT EVENTS? And who cares about it? ”
These complaints, as well as others of the same kind, I could only answer by picking up Owen, lifting him above his head and passing him on to someone else.
“You tease Owen too often,” Mom used to say, although I don’t remember teasing him often, apart from our usual habit of picking him up. Perhaps my mother meant that I don’t want to understand how serious Owen is – any joke could offend him. After all, he read Wall’s Gravesend Story when he was less than ten years old, and not everyone can do this thing – at least you can’t read such a book in passing. Besides, he read the Bible – not at the age of ten, of course, but he read it all, from beginning to end!
And in front of him was the Gravesend Academy; theoretically, she loomed ahead of every boy born in Gravesend – girls were not accepted there at the time.But I didn’t do well in school, and although my grandmother could afford to pay for my studies at the Academy, I would still have to stay in a regular Gravesend high school if my mother had not married the teacher from the Academy and he had not adopted me. The children of the teachers – or, as we were called, the “professors’ sons” – automatically received the right to study at the Academy.
What a relief this must have brought to my grandmother: she suffered all her life that her own children could not go to Gravesend Academy – after all, she had daughters.My mother and aunt Martha both graduated from regular school; they were connected with the Gravesend Academy only insofar as – through their “cavaliers”. Although Aunt Martha managed to take advantage of this – she married a guy who studied there (one of the few who never preferred Aunt Martha my mother), so my cousins, as children of an Academy graduate, later also received the right to study there. (True, the relationship with the Academy graduate did not bring any benefits to my only cousin – but more on that later.)
However, Owen Meany could well count on admission to the Gravesend Academy: he studied brilliantly at school, and it was taken for granted that he would be accepted into the Academy. As soon as he submitted an application, he would be immediately accepted; moreover, he would have received a full scholarship – after all, his father’s company never flourished and his parents could not pay for the tuition. And then one day, when my mother drove Owen and me to the beach – we were both then ten years old – she said:
– I hope you will continue to help Johnny with his lessons, Owen, as homework is much more difficult at the Academy, especially for Johnny.
“BUT I’M NOT GOING TO THE ACADEMY,” Owen said.
– How are you not going ?! – Mom was taken aback. “You are the best student in all of New Hampshire, and perhaps in the whole country!
“ACADEMIES ARE NOT FOR LIKE ME,” Owen replied. – FOR LIKE ME, THERE ARE REGULAR MUNICIPAL SCHOOLS.
I thought at first what he meant – for people as small as me, in other words, that public schools are intended for small people. But my mother figured out much faster than me what he wanted to say:
– You will receive a full scholarship, Owen.Hope your parents know about this. You will study at the Academy for free.
“THERE NEEDS A UNIFORM BLAZER AND TIE EVERY DAY,” Owen said. – NO SCHOLARSHIP IS ENOUGH FOR JACKETS AND TIES.
“All this can be arranged, Owen,” Mom objected, and I understood that she was going to arrange it herself: if no one else did it, she would buy him whatever jackets and ties she needed.
“YOU WANT ANY OTHER DRESS SHIRTS AND SHOES THERE,” Owen continued.- WHEN YOU GO TO SCHOOL WITH RICH CHILDREN, YOU DO NOT VERY WANT TO BE LIKE THEIR SERVANT.
It seems to me now that then my mother heard in this remark the prickly proletarian intonation of Mr. Mini.
“Everything that needs to be done, Owen,” Mom said, “everything will be sorted out.
We entered Paradise and were just passing the High Apostles Church, and the breeze from the ocean was already blowing pretty hard. A man was carrying a pile of roof slats in a wheelbarrow, holding them with difficulty so as not to be blown away by the wind; the staircase attached to the roof of the sacristy was also about to fall.The man clearly needed an assistant – or, at worst, another pair of hands.
– WE SHOULD STOP AND HELP HIM, – suggested Owen, but my mother was so carried away that she did not notice anything unusual outside the window.
– Maybe I should talk to your parents about this, eh Owen?
“THE QUESTION IS STILL HOW TO GET TO STUDY,” Owen said. – IT IS POSSIBLE TO GO TO SCHOOL BY BUS. I LIVE OUTSIDE THE CITY, YOU KNOW. AND HOW DO I GET TO THE ACADEMY? I KNOW IF I DO NOT LIVE IN THE HOSTEL – HOW DO I GET THERE? AND WHAT WILL I RETURN HOME ON? PARENTS WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO LIVE IN THE DOMESTIC FOR NOTHING.THEY NEED TO BE AT HOME. YES AND IN GENERAL, LIVING IN A DOMESTIC IS HARMFUL. HOW DO THE STUDENTS GET TO SCHOOL DAY AND THEN TO HOME? – he asked.
“Someone takes them in a car,” Mom replied. “I could give you a ride, Owen, at least until you get your driver’s license.”
“NO, NOTHING WILL DO,” said Owen. —MY FATHER IS TOO BUSY. AND MOTHER DOESN’T DRIVE A CAR.
Mrs. Mini not only did not drive – and my mother and I knew that very well – she did not leave the house at all.Even in the summer, the windows of their house remained tightly closed: Owen once explained that his mother was allergic to dust. At any time of the year, Mrs. Meany sat in the house behind the dull window panes, scratched with fine grains of sand from the quarry. She wore old flying headphones with dangling wires on her head, as she could not bear the roar of the cutter machine and the screech of incisors biting into the rock. In the days when there were explosions in the quarry, she turned on the player at full volume, and then the sounds of jazz could be heard from their house.At times – when the explosion was especially powerful or the dynamite was laid very close to home – the needle of the turntable jumped several tracks ahead.
Mr. Mini went to the shops to shop. He would give Owen a lift to Sunday school and pick him up after school – although he himself was not present at the service in the Episcopal Church. Obviously, sending Owen there was enough to take revenge on the Catholics; and Mr. Meany himself either simply did not need to hurt the Catholic authorities even more with his personal attendance at the service, or the insult inflicted on him was so painful that he became deaf to the teachings of every church.
My mom knew he was just as tough about Gravesend Academy. “First, the interests of the city, – he said once at a meeting of the city council, – and only then – their interests!” The conversation was about asking the leaders of the Academy to widen the channel of our river and deepen the Skuamscott’s fairway in order to improve the rowing track for the Academy team: the fact is that the boats have already got stuck in the swamp several times during low tide. The section of the coast, due to which it was supposed to expand the channel, was a swampy promontory flooded with tides, directly bordering the Mini quarry.It was completely unusable land, but Mr. Mini owned it, and he resented that the Academy wanted to chop it off – “just for fun!” – as he said.
“We’re talking about a swamp, not granite,” said the representative of the Academy.
– And I’m talking about us and about them! – Mr. Mini shouted in his hearts, and this meeting went down in history. For a meeting of Gravesend City Council to go down in history, a good swara is enough. The squamscott was widened, the canal was dug. The city decided that if it’s just dirt, it doesn’t matter who it belongs to.
“You’ll go to the Academy, Owen,” Mom insisted. – And no talking. If anyone has a place in a decent school, it’s for you. Why, this Academy was created for people like you – but for whom else?
“WE MISSED AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO A GOOD DEED,” Owen said grimly. – THE MAN WHO REPAIRED THE CHURCH ROOF – HE NEEDED HELP.
“Don’t argue with me, Owen,” Mom continued. – You will study at the Academy, even if I have to adopt you for this.I will steal you if need be!
But such a stubborn person as Owen has never been seen before. We drove a full mile before he answered. He said: “NO, NOTHING WILL GET OUT.”
Gravesend Academy was founded in 1781 by the Reverend Emery Heard, the first follower of the first American Whewright and his outstanding convictions. Hurd was a childless Puritan who possessed, according to Wall, “an oratorical gift, capable of convincing of the advantages of Learning and its good property to cultivate Virtue and Piety in people.”I wonder how the Reverend Mr. Heard would have said about Owen Meany? Hurd planned to create an academy from which “a young man caught in a pernicious influence on his peers should be expelled within an hour”; academy, where each student “will work tirelessly and study hard in these labors.”
As for the money Mr. Heard had left after that, he used it to “educate American Indians and convert them to Christianity.” In the twilight of his life, the Reverend Mr. before him a hat, and young ladies who forgot to squat in a curtsy.In response to such an offense, Emery Heard happily shared with these young people a bit of his wisdom; at the end of his life, only grains of his wisdom really remained.
I had to watch my grandmother lose her mind bit by bit in the same way. When she was already so old that she remembered almost nothing – not even me, not to mention Owen Meany – she sometimes suddenly burst into reproaches against everyone who surrounded her at that moment.
– Why doesn’t anyone take off their hat? She moaned and sobbed.- Give back your obeisances! Return the curtsies!
– Calm down, grandma, everything will return, – I consoled her.
– Oh, but how do you know? – She said with annoyance, and then asked: – Who are you, by the way?
IS YOUR GRANDSON, JOHNNY, I replied, trying to portray Owen Meany’s voice as accurately as possible.
And then grandmother said:
– My God, is he still here? Is he still here, this weird boy? You locked it up there in the basement, huh Johnny?
Some time later, that summer, when we were both ten years old, Owen reported that my mother had come to talk to his parents.
– So what did they say? I asked him.
Owen replied that they hadn’t said a word to him about it at all, but he still knew that she had come.
“HER HOUSE STUFFED WITH HER SPIRIT,” he explained. – SHE, TRUE, HAS BEEN THERE A LONG BECAUSE IT SMELLED ALMOST AS STRONG AS IN YOUR HOUSE. MY MOTHER DOESN’T USE SPIRIT AT ALL, ”he added.
He didn’t have to tell me that. Mrs. Meany not only did not go out – she tried not to even look there.Whenever and at which window I saw her, every time it was a profile – she seemed to diligently avoid looking at the world and at the same time with her posture seemed to make it clear that she had not yet completely turned away from him. It somehow occurred to me that it was because of the Catholics that she became that way – whatever they did, it undoubtedly had reason to mysteriously be called the INCREDIBLE INSURANCE that Owen assured his father and mother suffered. There was something in this stubborn self-imprisonment of Mrs. Mini that suggested, if not about eternal damnation, then certainly about religious persecution.
– How did Mini go there? I asked my mother.
– Did they tell Owen I was there? She wondered.
– No, they didn’t say. He just recognized your perfume.
– Well, still, – my mother smiled. I think she knew that Owen was in love with her – besides, all my friends were in love with her. If she lived to see the time when they became adolescents, undoubtedly, their passion for her would grow into a passion that is unbearable for them and for me.

1. History.
(History)
Derived from the Episcopal School, which opened in 1724 by decision of Bishop Paul. but a year later it was closed due to lack of funding. In 1730, in Vologda, Bishop Athanasius Candidi opened the “Slavic-Latin School” for the Spiritual Regulations of Peter I. It was later renamed the Theological Seminary. The documents were summoned to the school and the Slavic-Latin seminary.this school was intended for the children of the clergy and the training of future ministers of the church.

The first teachers were Ivan Tolmachev, a student at the Moscow Slavic-Greek-Latin Academy, and N.G. Sokolovsky. “Since the 1740s, the most capable students sent the Metropolitan to the Academy of Training” for the teaching rank. “Apparently, the first teacher was Ivan Klyucharev from Vologda, who graduated from the Moscow Slavic-Greek-Latin Academy in 1751 and taught philosophy.
In 1808, four junior classes of the theological seminary were separated into an independent religious school.The library of the seminary was the largest book depository of the Russian North.
In 1918, simultaneously with the abolition of monasteries, the Vologda Theological Seminary and the Diocesan Women’s School were closed.
In the same year, pastoral and theological courses for senior students were established in Vologda; the seminary, which operated until the early 1920s, was abolished.
In 1921 – 1924 in Vologda they acted in a pastoral school to train candidates for the adoption of the priesthood.

90,000 Ritta Nazarova: “I make people beautiful!”
Hardware cosmetology, which has enormous potential today, began to develop in the 70s of the last century, and gained popularity only 30 years later.She is considered the sister of physical therapy, the effectiveness of which has been confirmed by time. The use of special devices has microcurrent, ultrasonic, vacuum, light and other physiotherapeutic effects on the skin. Our heroine, a Mountain Jewess, now a resident of Moscow, Ritta Nazarova, professionally, skillfully and masterly helps beautiful ladies to cope with their problems both with the help of hardware techniques and manually. She is constantly studying, improving her qualifications, no longer imagining herself without her favorite work.
– Ritta, traditional question, where are you from, what was your childhood like, what did your parents do?
– I am a mountain Jewess, I was born and raised in the wonderful resort town of Pyatigorsk, and my ancestors are from Dagestan.
My grandfather has always been an unshakable authority for me, I would like to say a few words about him. Nazarov Vladimir Alekseevich worthily went through his difficult life, in the 90s he repeatedly participated in negotiations with the militants to free the hostages, thereby saving more than one human life, during the invasion of militants into Dagestan he was on the front line with the militias, for which he received state awards.His word became decisive in many conflicts. He inherited firmness of character from his father, which will be discussed below. Great-grandfather Nazarov Aleksey Amalovich participated in the Great Patriotic War, was awarded the Order of the Red Star, and received a medal “For Courage” for taking out a seriously wounded commander from the battlefield. Dad moved to Pyatigorsk at a young age, and my mother was born there. Parents observed all Mountain Jewish traditions at home and instilled them in us, their children, taught us to honor the Torah and customs.
Pyatigorsk is famous not only for its historical events, but also for sanatoriums, health resorts and healing mineral water. Guests of the city always came to us in droves for another portion of beauty and health, and my mother Elena was just a medical worker. I believe these factors could have influenced the choice of my future career in the field of beauty. My dad Arthur is a very creative person, immersed in creativity, engaged in interior design projects. I recall with nostalgia my carefree, happy childhood, surrounded by devoted friends, and with several friends I even chose one educational institution.
– Why do you love your specialty? What skin problems does the laser machine on which you work help solve?
– You can talk for a long time about the importance of different professions, but personally for me it was important to make people healthy, happy and beautiful, I perform all procedures with knowledge of the matter, soul and love. The gratitude of my clients, the beautiful half of humanity, is a great pleasure. I do not stop training in various fields of cosmetology, as I understand that highly qualified specialists constantly need new knowledge, experience, diligence, and in-depth research in their field.Hardware methods almost immediately give a visible effect, even if a course of several sessions is required. Unlike surgical intervention, it does not require a preparatory and long rehabilitation period. However, their main advantage is a wide range of solutions for anti-aging face and body problems. There are several laser developments, they are distinguished by the type of apparatus used and the price per session. Laser device, my “friend and colleague” – the Italian alexandrite laser has unique technologies that have no analogues: painless, impeccably effective, safe, with a sapphire tip and a cooling system.In my beauty parlor, he helps to remove age spots, remove unwanted hair. In addition, I develop my hobby, make architecture and botox of eyebrows, their correction with tweezers or wax, their coloring, teach beginners, do facial massage using personally developed techniques. I plan to open my own beauty salon, putting my soul into it and developing it according to the highest world standards.

I am thinking about attending classes in the MEOTS, in the youth club “Jewell”, while I look closely, I read reviews about various events of the creative artist Mikhoel Stavropolsky. I am impressed that in the classroom in the Maryina Roshcha community they talk about the Jewish family, the Jewish home, reveal the secrets of caring for children, building harmonious relations between spouses, I want to learn in this regard all the features and subtleties that will definitely come in handy in the future.

– Fortunately, “heavy” clients did not come to me, at the same time I try to find an individual approach to everyone, to establish a common language with everyone, since we are all different.I noticed that if a person comes to me in a negative mood, then he goes home, after the procedures, always happy and elated.
– How to keep your beauty for many years?
– First of all, you should lead a healthy lifestyle, a lot depends on our diet, on how much water we drink per day. Unfortunately, not all people fully follow these guidelines. And we, the workers of the beauty industry, will be happy to come to the rescue and provide all the necessary services for restoration and rejuvenation, because it is not for nothing that they say that beauty will save the world.
