Olney Friends School
By Grayce H. Mesner
Olney has announced that
Richard Sidwell will be the new head of the school as of July 2003.
He was a student at Olney as well as a teacher, about thirty four years
ago, then came back four years ago to join the staff as the business manager.
He has been working closely with Ken & Katharine Jacobsen and all the
staff and he seemed to be the natural person to guide the school onward.
Dick Stratton '63, has been
hired to be the next business manager and Peggy Conant '78 will be the
assistant head with specific focus on outreach and academic development.
As of the end of March they were still looking for a science/math/dorm
resident and a technology coordinator/dorm support staff.
On Feb. 17, the Olney community
was set for their 4th Service Day of the year. The plan was to have
projects on campus during the morning and then make a trip to the Wheeling
YMCA for an afternoon of swimming. Well, their plans got changed!
Twenty-two inches of snow fell that day. Because several staff members
could not get to work, groups were re-organized and projects went on.
Most of the groups shoveled snow!! Since they were on Level 3 snow |
