<p>Dear 11<sup>th</sup> Grade Parents –</p><p>We hope you are enjoying the wonderful Fall weather and getting into the groove of the school season. Several upcoming Sidwell events, volunteering needs, and opportunities to see student performances in the arts and athletics are noted below for your calendar. Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions.</p><p>Your Parent Reps:<br /> Lisa Horowitz (mother of Erica Wang) – <a href="mailto:lisahorowitz@comcast.net" target="_blank">lisahorowitz@comcast.net</a><br /> Mary Kostel (mother of Philip DiMeglio) – <a href="mailto:marykostel@gmail.com" target="_blank">marykostel@gmail.com</a><br /> Kimberly Stephens (mother of Andrew Stephens) – <a href="mailto:kcstephens88@aol.com" target="_blank">kcstephens88@aol.com<br /> </a>Barbara Swoboda (mother of Joey Fredell) – <a href="mailto:bmswoboda@verizon.net" target="_blank">bmswoboda@verizon.net</a></p><p> </p><p><b>SCHOOL EVENTS </b></p><p><b>Monday, September 25 (tonight!) - Athletic Back-to-School Night - Robert L. Smith Meeting Room 6-7pm</b></p><p>Please join us for a special edition of our Athletics Back to School Night, Monday September 25th, for a chance to hear from a wonderful new member of our community, our incoming Athletic Director Keith Levinthal. Keith will offer his vision for the athletics program at Sidwell Friends, and discuss the important role sports can play in the educational process. Bryan Garman will introduce Keith, and the coaching staff will also be on hand to answer questions about the program for this year, or more general queries. Although primarily useful for the Middle and Upper school community, we’d be thrilled to have interested lower school parents join as well, and students who want to listen in. It should be a terrific chance to welcome Keith, get questions answered, and bring the community together on a critical issue.</p><p></p><p>Supper will be offered starting at 5:30 pm, outside of the Robert L. Smith Meeting Room, and the presentations will start at 6:00 pm, and will wrap by 7:00pm. Keith and the coaches will be available both before and after the event for questions and mingling. Child care is available for LS and MS kids in the classroom next to the Fox Den, and there will be pizza available. Please RSVP below if you can, so we get the food right!</p><p><a href="http://email.sidwell.myenotice.com/c/eJw9js0OgyAQhJ9Gj2T5UeDAgYvvIewSTRQapTV9-2KTNtm5TL6ZHXQoE3DqVyeAa7Bi4AY4WKZGYQ0bwYKXdvLS60lK3yk4V7xo29j-plzqGonFsveLs4LHFFSKiCEEreUw6DGkqAwAatL95pZaH10rEVO767rYr4vw-TUHATdz_iF6Ua4nm2uljPej5qUmLo3Uhgtl-8MtYUXKbdpRTtpLC1CmON_4Bx5nQ2k"> https://events.attend.com/f/1383781249 </a></p><p>Thanks, and looking forward,<br /> Your Athletics Committee Co-Clerks: Claire Shipman, Mark Chichester, Andrew Schwartz, Miriam Vogel</p><p> </p><p><b>Friday, October 6 - 11th Grade Parent & Guardian Coffee with Upper School Administration</b></p><p>Join fellow 11th grade parents for coffee with Mamadou and administrators from 8:00-9:00am in the Robert L.
