Catherine Koller IC Chair: Marymount New York Schools Goal for the Year: To encourage and affirm personal growth The overarching benefit in chairing the IC is playing a key role in the ongoing vision of goals unification within the RSHM Network. The IC is on the frontline in reinforcing the reality that the identity of Marymount New York is intrinsically fused with the Schools membership in the larger international community of schools. It has been very rewarding to witness the growing appreciation of the Schools international dimensions among both students and staff. There is, however, a challenge presented by this mission of the IC to be the main advocate of the Schools goal-oriented, international character. It must be reviewed and reintroduced regularly to keep all segments of the school community within the loop. The challenge is two-part. The IC needs to develop strategies for keeping the concept fresh and dynamic in the minds of those who already know the RSHM story and are fully aware of the pivotal position of the goal within the context of the school year. The IC must also create appropriate ways in which to introduce the concept to new faculty and staff and to develop the concept in a compelling manner. A major part of the challenge is finding the time to do this. A great benefit of the year was the dramatic growth in staff acceptance of the IC and its role. As the concept of the goal-oriented year has become more and more entrenched, the need for an oversight committee has become much clearer. Marymount New York has a great advantage in the presence of the Values Committee which has been in place in the School for many years. The idea of a value for the year was not new to the community when it came under the umbrella of the RSHM goals implementation initiative. While the IC plays an oversight role, the Values Committee is the key element in infusing the goal into the daily life of the school. The Schools Annual Report on the RSHM Goals and Criteria includes numerous examples of student projects and activities that were spearheaded by the Values Committee. The Spiritual Life Department also greatly benefits the IC through the myriad ways in which it incorporates the goal into its classes and programs. The IC worked diligently to engage staff in the implementation process beginning with our opening September meeting in which each staff member was asked to write down goals for the year and place them in self-addressed envelopes to be mailed to them as gentle reminders on three occasions during the year. The School has made the Bziers immersion experience a top priority for staff development and the IC has benefited greatly from having so many colleagues who have participated in this area of the RSHM network. A challenge has been in how to most effectively use the knowledge and ideas they have gained in order to broaden the goal-implementation base. This year the IC sponsored a get-together in December at which the Bziers alumni shared their experiences and evaluated the very positive impact of Bziers on their overall commitment to the School and the broader RSHM mission. A highlight of the meeting was a discussion of the theme for the Faculty/Staff Retreat, subsequently held in April, in which everyones suggestions were actively elicited and consensus was reached. The Faculty/Staff Retreat was a golden moment for the IC which organized the event in conjunction with the Spiritual Life Department. From the consensus struck in December, the decision was made to continue to explore the relationship between Christianity and other major religions which was begun with the 2005 retreats focus on the relationship between Christianity and Judaism. This year the retreat, with a focus on the relationship between Christianity and Islam, highlighted an excellent speaker, Dr. Peter Awn from Columbia University, and included ample time for discussion of the theme and the sharing of individual concerns and opinions. A very important part of the day included Mass and a reception with the RSHM sisters who reside at Marymount Tarrytown where the retreat was held. Participants agreed that it was a great opportunity for personal growth, our goal for the year. The IC has targeted several additional implementation challenges for special focus next year in fulfilling our 2007 goal: To create unity through diversity. These will include added attention being given to engaging the Board of Trustees more actively in the implementation process with special concentration on reinforcing the RSHM culture upon which the goals are based. There will be a focus onL exploring the many ways the goal can be supported through Board decisions and commitments. There will also be continued emphasis on promoting student-generated activities, through such groups as student-government and the Retreat Team, aimed at the execution of the goal. Students will continue to be encouraged and supported in creating both in-school activities and participation in goal-related community involvement. The IC benefits enormously from enjoying full administrative support and from operating in a school whose culture is imbued with the key importance of lifes spiritual dimension and the vital need for the development of ethical, other-centered individuals. The members of the committee are very much looking forward to playing their part next year in advancing the cause of unity through diversity within the School.
