FRIENDS IN DEED: STORIES OF THE QUAKER QUEST FOR TRUTH, JUSTICE, AND
EQUALITY

The All School Parents Association and Quaker Life Committees invite
all parents to an evening with Susan Sachs Goldman on January 24, 7-9
PM in the Middle School Drama Room. Susan has a longstanding interest
in Friends’ history, beginning in graduate school and continuing
through the education of her three children, all lifers at Sidwell
Friends. She served on the Board of Trustees for 11 years, serving as
Clerk for three. Susan believes that the history of Quaker social
action is an inspiring story that is largely unappreciated – and one
that should be shared. She is completing a book on this subject to be
published later this spring.


ARTRAGEOUS NEEDS VOLUNTEERS!

Friends, parents, patrons, lend us your love of all things art!
ArtRageous (Sunday, January 30 from 1-4 PM) promises to bring out the

School – BUT WE NEED YOU. Set up (morning), clean up (4-5:30),
assisting art stops and other events (1-4) – we’ve got a place for
