In our profession, we are often told that to move up, you have to move on. However, on every campus and high school, you'll find professionals who have spent most of their careers in one place.

Of course, both of your hosts took the path of moving on, with ten institutions between us, so we are incredibly fortunate to have two guests who can share their experiences and advice with you. Jessica Sant, Chief Engagement Officer at The Lovett School in Atlanta, Georgia and Past-President of Southern ACAC talks about the benefits of years-long connections to a school and a community while charting your career path.

A core value of The Lovett School, faith is considered a fundamental dimension of our students' growth personally and educationally. There is no other department on campus that is more directly responsible for that effort than our Chaplaincy program. Lovett's chaplains work to cultivate spiritual formation in our kids by providing students with opportunities for religious learning and development. All three Lovett chaplains-- Steve Allen, Upper School chaplain and Head Chaplain; Jennifer Arnold, Lower School Chaplain; and Wade Reck, Middle School Chaplain speak on this episode of Living Lovett with host Jessica Sant.  Find Living Lovett on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts or your favorite podcast app. Visit The Lovett School website Lovett.org for more information.

“Art is considered the domain of the heart.” This is how Sarah Kaufmann and her colleagues at the Washington Post put it in a 2017 article entitled, This is Your Brain on Art. This idea is likely why the arts at The Lovett School are a dimension of most of our students' journeys.  After all, when we think about whole child learning, our values, and our mission, the heart, in partnership with the head, is centered in all that we do. David Eccles, Dr. Tim Pitchford, and Amy Story join Jessica Sant (Lovett Chief Engagement Officer and host of Living Lovett) to discuss the arts education available to our students and why those opportunities seem to have such an impact. Each of our guests on this episode are practicing artists in addition to being educators—learn how that dynamic shows up in the classroom. This episode is a prescient follow-up to last week's episode where so many of the Class of 2012 noted how important the arts were to their development.

Lovett is one school made up of three: the Lower School, the Middle School, and Upper School. On this episode of Living Lovett, host Jessica Sant speaks with the leaders of each school: James Choi, Head of the Lower School; Joseph Moody, Head of the Middle School; and Patrick Boswell, Head of the Upper School. Many parents comment that depending on where a child is at Lovett, the experience might be remarkably different from school to school. While some of this dynamic may be to accommodate the developmental stage of students, the desire is for a culture of One Lovett. This wide-ranging conversation is sure to give understanding of the challenges and joys that can be found in each level, and what parents can expect as their children progress through Lovett. The topic of academic rigor arose during the conversation, so host Jessica brings on Chelle Wabrek, Associate Head of School to provide some insight about what rigor means at a place like Lovett.

S2E2   When we hear the words “philanthropy”, “fundraising”, or even “charity”, most of us default to the act of financial giving. And while development offices on independent school campuses certainly prioritize fundraising, there is no question our community deeply honors the sentiment that we are asked to offer something even greater - to make an investment of the heart. On this episode of Living Lovett you'll meet Matt Gould—new to The Lovett School serving as the new Chief Advancement Officer. You'll learn how Matt's office furthers the goals of the Lovett community. Pay careful attention to how Matt frames his day-to-day efforts, more specifically, how he centers the people on this campus, especially students. Lovett alum and Director of Annual Giving Maggie Dozier Carr also joins Living Lovett host Jessica Sant to discuss True Blue and what impact the annual fund has on student experience (in addition to the experience of faculty and staff.)

S2E1   Experiential learning shows up in opportunities all over Lovett's campus. It is just one strategy our faculty utilize to move our students closer to the practice of skill building and further from mere content acquisition. One shining example of this effort is in Ben Posten's classroom. Ben has been a Middle School social studies teacher at The Lovett School for the past 40 years. He's taught a variety of courses but in this episode you'll hear about his eighth grade civic leadership class. Fran Turner is Lovett's Director of Civic and Global Engagement. Mrs. Turner spends a great deal of energy not only supporting field work in the civic leadership program but also in curating a variety of service experiences, career engagements, and semester and exchange programs for our students. How could we hear about these tremendous opportunities for students without speaking to some civic leadership class participants? Lovett ninth graders, Anna Mefford and Will Byrne, speak with Living Lovett host Jessica Sant, discussing the impact of the class.  Find Living Lovett on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts or your favorite podcast app. Visit The Lovett School website Lovett.org for more information.

On this season finale of Living Lovett, host Jessica Sant, Chief Engagement Officer at The Lovett School speaks with two Lovett parents-- Kerry Izard and Alethia Love.

S1E3 The College Counseling team at The Lovett School is often called upon to discuss the latest in applying to college, especially as the admission process seems to grow evermore mysterious and mercurial. Anita Hua, Director of College Counseling joins Living Lovett host Jessica Sant to talk about the challenges (and joys!) of engaging the journey to college, keeping in mind the unique needs of students and families. With an eight-year history working together, Ms. Hua and Ms. Sant have a lot to talk about. All Lovett college counselors have experience “on the other side of the desk,” that is, they all have worked in college admission. How does that experience translate into advising and guiding Lovett students?   Why is the unofficial motto of the College Counseling Office, “It Depends”? How can students and families keep some perspective during the application process? What constitutes a “tough” conversation? Do the college counselors ever tell a student where they should (or shouldn't) apply? These questions and more are answered on this episode.

Carter begins with a sobering discussion of a viral video from a Las Vegas area high school that depicts the brutal beating of one female student by another, while classmates look on passively. He briefly touches on alleged blacklisting of parents by administrators at the Lovett School near Atlanta, GA, before taking a moment to laugh about Hollywood's pathetic praise of its own mediocrity. Next, he reads a recent editorial in The Globe and Mail about how the truck convoy has "weaponized freedom," and then he interviews two organizers of the Convoy to Save America: Daniel Wagner and Pennie Fay. The show ends with a critique of the Biden administration's performative outrage over a Florida parental rights bill dubbed the "Don't Say Gay" bill by dishonest leftists.

Ryan Greer of Northwestern is the 1st current college player to join us. I first met Ryan when he was in 8th grade while helping with his travel basketball team when I was a senior in high school. Now entering his junior season at Northwestern, Greer started out at The Lovett School in Atlanta, and then went to Northfield Mount Hermon in Massachusetts after his sophomore season. He spent one year at NMH and then reclassed back up to 2018 and moved on to Northwestern in the Big 10. He spoke with us about his unique high school path, his recruitment process, the importance of academics, majoring in journalism, and more.
