As a kid I never read a book that wasn't related to a sport, but my
English teacher, Beverly I Lmnett-Price changed that. Reading became
infectious an d o pened doors for Elie ihai wou ld otherw ise never
have been opened. I ended up taking Shakespeare in college
because of Mrs. I lannett's influence and later passed my love
of reading onto my daughter.
I cultivated sonic hick- my, friendships during my time at
Country Day and I still remain close to the friends I made
there. lb this day, out of the S5 students in my graduating
class, I keep in touch with about 20. In fad, for the past
decade, a group Of us Country Day alumni take an
annual trip together!
Today when I come in contact with patients from
Michigan zind I tell them I attended Country Day,
they don't ask inc about OR' school's well known
alumni...they ask, "Did you have Mrs. Hamlett as
a teacher?" and I'm proud to tell them that yes, I
did have that distinct privilege.
I think that speaks volumes about the influence
Country Day has on its students.
