THE NAVIGATOR 2023-2024

Community, Dormitory, and Academic Regulations; Student Health Policies,
Procedures, and Practices

The Navigator is a fitting title for the document that shares the values,
expectations, and agreements by which we live here, and it provides guiding
information about our community’s rules, policies, practices, and resources. 

While at Stevenson, our students—supported by a constellation of caring
advisors—learn how to make their own way in the world by acquiring the skills,
experience, and confidence to serve them as their journeys continue.
Understanding how to live within a group while aligning with the values upheld
by the School is a crucial aspect of this process. In providing students with
the information they need to thrive, The Navigator invites students to join
faculty, staff, parents, guardians, alumni, and trustees as torchbearers for our
enduring mission.

Questions regarding academic and faculty matters should be directed to Aimee
Bates, head of the upper division. Questions regarding student life, including
student health and residential life, should be directed to Phillip Koshi, dean
of students. If in doubt about the office to which your question should be
directed, please contact Phillip Koshi.





KEY CONTACTS

If you have questions about School policies and procedures in this handbook and
are unsure whom to contact, please call the main School number and the
receptionist will direct your call.

OUR HONOR CODE, CORE VALUES, MOTTO, AND SCHOOL PRAYER

At the beginning of each year, advisory groups discuss the School’s honor code,
core values, motto, and School prayer, as well as the standards of conduct
described in this handbook. Students ask questions and reflect on how the
School’s values and practices align with their own. After doing so, each student
is expected to affirm that they have read and understood the School’s
expectations of their behavior. Our community takes time to reflect on the
implications of these principles throughout the year through assembly
announcements, Community Forum, advisory, and other social programming.

HONOR CODE

We assert a personal code of honor that compels honesty with ourselves and in
our dealings with others, the courage to accept responsibility for our decisions
and actions, and a commitment to seeking fulfillment in our best work. 

CORE VALUES

Our core values include safety, respect, trust, belonging, and inclusion. In
practicing these values, we create an environment that is conducive to
everyone’s personal growth.

SCHOOL MOTTO

The School’s Latin motto, Suaviter in modo, fortiter in re (Gentle in manner,
resolute in deed) emphasizes humility and perseverance. 

SCHOOL PRAYER

 

The School prayer, adapted from the writings of Robert Louis Stevenson, embodies
our ideals:

O Lord, give us the strength to encounter that which is to come,
That we may be brave in peril, constant in tribulation, temperate in wrath,
And in all changes of fortune and down to the gates of death,
Loyal and loving to one another. Amen.


A CONSTELLATION OF ADVISORS

The advisors in each student’s experience form a constellation, working together
to assist in each student’s learning and growth, and helping each student find a
balance between healthy self-sufficiency and living up to standards vital to
their success.

FACULTY ADVISORS

The integrity of the relationship among faculty advisors, students, and
parents/guardians is essential to Stevenson’s close-knit community. Every new
student is assigned a faculty advisor who is responsible for attending to that
student’s academic and personal progress. The faculty advisor is often the
primary link between the School and the advisee’s parents/guardians and
generally serves as a first point of contact for advisee communication.
Parents/guardians with concerns and questions about their child should generally
first call the faculty advisor.

Faculty advisors meet regularly with advisees individually and in a group, and
follow a common calendar designed to address their needs in a timely manner. 

At the end of each academic year, returning students can list faculty advisors
they would like to be assigned to for the following year. It is generally best
for students to remain with their advisor to create consistency and continuity
in their experience. Advisee groups are also limited in size in order to assure
equitable distribution of each faculty advisor’s attention. However, the School
makes every effort to assign students seeking a change to one of their preferred
choices. Students should rest assured that no faculty advisor begrudges a
student for seeking a change. Any questions or concerns regarding an advisor
assignment should be directed to the dean of students.

HEAD OF THE UPPER DIVISION (MRS. AIMÉE BATES) THE HEAD OF THE UPPER DIVISION,
REPORTING DIRECTLY TO THE PRESIDENT, SUPERVISES THE WORK OF THE TEACHING
FACULTY, AND OVERSEES—IN CLOSE CONCERT WITH THE DEPARTMENT HEADS—THE QUALITY AND
INTEGRITY OF THE PROGRAM OF STUDY.

DEAN OF STUDENTS (MR. PHILLIP KOSHI) THE DEAN OF STUDENTS, REPORTING DIRECTLY TO
THE HEAD OF THE UPPER DIVISION, OVERSEES THE SCHOOL’S DAY-TO-DAY OPERATIONS
RELATED TO NON-ACADEMIC STUDENT LIFE. THE DEAN OVERSEES THE WORK OF THE FACULTY
ADVISORS, COMMUNITY FORUM, THE HEALTH CENTER, AND ALL ASPECTS OF RESIDENTIAL
LIFE, STUDENT ACTIVITIES, OUTDOOR EDUCATION, AND STUDENT LEADERSHIP.

DEAN OF ACADEMIC LIFE (J.D. GLADDEN) THE DEAN OF ACADEMIC LIFE REPORTS TO THE
HEAD OF THE UPPER DIVISION AND WORKS IN CLOSE COLLABORATION WITH THE HEAD OF THE
UPPER DIVISION AND THE DEAN OF STUDENTS. 

DIRECTOR OF RESIDENTIAL LIFE (LUCY STOCKDALE) THE DIRECTOR OF RESIDENTIAL LIFE
REPORTS DIRECTLY TO THE DEAN OF ACADEMIC LIFE. THE DIRECTOR OVERSEES ALL ASPECTS
OF SUPERVISION OF RESIDENTIAL LIFE, AND LEADS THE DORMITORY HEADS TEAM.

DORMITORY FACULTY

Our dormitories are places of shelter, safety, rest, study, spontaneous fun, and
leisure. They are where students mature intellectually, emotionally, and
physically, and learn to live well with others in preparation for the greater
liberties of college and adult life. Our dorm teams tend this aspect of the
School’s mission with integrity, enthusiasm, wisdom, and dedication. Each team
of dormitory faculty is supervised by a dormitory head; daily and weekly dorm
duty assignments rotate among dorm team members.

PREFECTS

Prefects are Grade 11 and 12 students who are carefully selected for their
generosity of spirit and exemplary approach to the academic and social demands
of School life. They live among their peers, are alert to their needs, and help
care for their well-being. Working under duty schedules and in close concert
with dorm faculty, they help guide community life and health in the dormitory. 

SENIOR FORUM AND COMMUNITY FORUM

Senior Forum enlists Grade 12 students (selected and trained by the dean of
students) to help our Grade 9 students with a healthy transition to high school.
The program begins with the Wendy Ann Hayward ’86 New Student Orientation, which
includes an off-site retreat and ongoing peer-to-peer discussions throughout the
year.

COACHES

In addition to teaching a particular sport, athletics coaches (supervised by
Justin Clymo ’93, director of athletics) cultivate students’ appreciation of
values-driven participation, helping students master skills required to thrive
both on a team and on the field. In this sense, athletics here is not just a
game but an opportunity to be a part of something bigger than oneself. The bonds
that players make with players and coaches as a result of this team experience
are often long-lasting and transformative.

TEACHERS

Teachers assume many roles here: faculty advisors, athletics coaches, and
dormitory faculty. However, they are singularly focused on classroom work, where
they counsel and train students in critical academic, intellectual, social, and
emotional learning. They model, and help students develop honor and integrity,
collaborate productively and peacefully, and nurture student ambition in the
healthy pursuit of excellence. The upper division head is the primary supervisor
of upper division faculty, working in concert with the dean of academic life,
academic department heads, the director of athletics, and the dean of students.

DIRECTOR OF COUNSELING (DIERDRE NEWELL)

As a licensed mental health professional in good standing with the state of
California, the Director of Counseling works with students individually and in
group settings on issues relating to mental health. The Director of Counseling
works with advisors and faculty to track student wellness; they also develop and
implement educational and experiential student interventions. The Director of
Counseling collaborates with families and the Health Center for all outside
mental health referrals. The Director of Counseling works closely with the dean
of students, head of the upper division, dean of academic life, the Health
Center, Learning Center, and reports to the dean of students. 

LEARNING CENTER (LETI MOSES)

The Learning Center provides services to students who might need additional
learning support outside the classroom. Students are full partners in developing
plans to:

 * Implement organization strategies
 * Manage time effectively
 * Learn to use assistive technologies
 * Communicate with faculty
 * Thrive using sustainable techniques

Students interested in academic support may meet with an appropriate team member
by appointment or on a drop-in basis. Additionally, the Learning Center offers:

 * Individual and group sessions
 * A distraction-reduced study space
 * Classes in learning skills and strategies  
 * Referrals to qualified tutors in specific subjects
 * Assistance in applying for accommodations on standardized tests
 * Implementation of classroom accommodations based on documented needs
 * Opportunities to enhance boarding students’ study hall experience


GUIDED BY PURPOSE

Because we believe that education is the means by which we both discover our
world and contribute to its transformation, Stevenson School has long committed
to a mission described by three central aims:

 * To prepare students for success in school and their lives beyond school;

 * To foster their passion for learning and achievement;

 * To help them shape a joyful life.

In keeping with this mission, Stevenson seeks to:

 * Train students in critical academic, intellectual, social, and emotional
   skills;

 * Help students develop honor and integrity;

 * Teach students to engage productively and peacefully with others;

 * Nurture student ambition and the healthy pursuit of excellence;

 * Balance convention and innovation so we remain true to the enduring values of
   the School while relevant to emerging student needs.

 We therefore expect all members of our community to be:

 * Devoted to our tenets of scholarship and citizenship;

 * Honest, honorable, and empathetic;

 * Able to examine and be responsible for their beliefs and behavior, and
   respectful of the consequences that may attend both;

 * Willing to risk failure in the pursuit of wisdom;

 * Committed to embodying and sustaining our core values of safety, trust,
   respect, belonging, and inclusion.
