A Foundation of
Excellence
By Head of School, Jody Douglass
Tradition and innovation
are at the core of Sem
today, and the school
thrives because it values
both. A great school must
continue to evolve, but
always hold true to the
mission and values that
are its foundation.
W
e have worked together
to move forward with
great respect for our
past and with a passion
to educate our students for the world
of the future. This report reflects the
wonderful accomplishments of the
past year that have been achieved
through your strong support and
collaboration.
The start of the 2013-2014 school
year is a very special moment in
Buffalo Seminary’s history. For the
first time in more than 40 years, the
school’s enrollment will top 200
students. This size is one that is
remembered by alumnae of earlier
years when the expectation was
to have a class of 50 girls, but it is
a new experience for most cur-
rent students. We welcomed 80
new students to Sem this fall with
girls from 35 different schools in
Western New York, and residential
students from China, Korea, Japan,
and Germany, and France.
Understanding the issues confront-
ing the world will be vitally important
for our students. The Sem curriculum
integrates thoughtful analysis in our
classrooms. In English, mathematics,
science, international languages, art,
music, and drama, our students take
introductory and advanced courses to
prepare them for university work.
A look at the history curriculum
provides a glimpse of the nature of a
Sem student’s work today. The fresh-
man year, History 1 course empha-
sizes historical thinking skills, spatial
thinking, and the foundations of U.S.
government and politics. Students
spend the first trimester analyzing
primary and secondary sources,
creating narrative representations of
important events, and exploring the
multiple forces that produce change
over time. Toward the middle of the
year, they learn the five themes of
geography, become experts at reading
and creating maps, and contemplate
the significant role that space plays
in shaping human identity. Students
spend the third trimester studying
the elements of political participation
and examining the functions of local,
state, and national governments. An
interest in and a concern for Western
New York underlies all three trimes-
ters of History 1.
In sophomore year, students take
U.S. History, and in junior year, they
take World History. Advanced Place-
ment courses for college credit are
offered in each of these courses. In the
senior year, up to six elective courses
are offered: Contemporary Middle East
History; Freedom Triumphs: 100+
years of South African History; Chinese
History: Revolution and Controversy;
Her Story as History: A Survey of the
U.S. Women’s Movement Since 1848;
The Sixties in America; or AP Europe-
an History. The curriculum is exciting,
challenging, and comprehensive. Sem
students have had both a grounding in
skills and a range of advanced oppor-
tunities for study in history and in all
other areas of the academic program.
A Sem education continues to pro-
vide a foundation of excellence that
prepares girls for a future of leader-
ship and engagement. Thank you for
your support for the work that we do.

n June 2012, Jody Douglass was
informed that Sem had been
approved for a $50,000 match-
ing grant by the Edward E. Ford
Foundation. The purpose of the grant is
to provide faculty professional develop-
ment curricular initiatives in two areas:
leadership education for girls, and an
intensive experiential learning program
along with restructuring the academic
leadership team. In order to receive this
$50,000 Buffalo Seminary agreed to a
match on $1 to $2 basis cash contribu-
tions. Fortunately, generous donations
from Kathie (Heasly ’63) and John
Metzger, and Monica Angle and Sam
Magavern ensured the matching grant
and, therefore, the guaranteed dollars
from the foundation last spring.
The Edward E. Ford Foundation was
established in 1957 with the purpose to
provide grants to U.S. independent sec-
ondary education only. The mission of
The Edward E. Ford Foundation is “to
strengthen and support independent
secondary schools and to challenge and
inspire them to leverage their unique
talents, expertise and resources to ad-
vance teaching and learning throughout
this country by supporting and dis-
seminating best practice, by supporting
efforts to develop and implement mod-
els of sustainability, and by encouraging
collaboration with other institutions.”
Buffalo Seminary is very proud to have
secured a grant from a very competitive
pool of applicants, and the support of
Edward E. Ford Foundation will be
pivotal in strengthening SEM’s profes-
sional development program.

Two Seniors Reflect on the
Opportunities that SEM has provided
My name is
Marissa Egloff
and I’m a senior
at SEM.
Lately many people have
been asking me what I
plan to do with my life.
Where do you plan on at-
tending college? What
do you want to study in
school? What do you want
to be when you are older?
Luckily, because I attend
Buffalo Seminary, I can answer these questions confidently.
If I had not attended the West Side Rowing Camp the summer go-
ing into eighth grade, I probably would not have considered Sem as
my first choice high school. While attending the rowing camp, I met
my best friend Meghan Sullivan who also attends Sem and whose
mother and aunts attended Sem. They, along with Sem alumnae
Jen Persico and Sondra Maas, convinced me to consider Sem. I de-
cided to attend the open house and I immediately fell in love with
the school. The moment I walked through the big wooden doors I
knew that Sem was a very special place. I could see myself thriv-
ing at this school and that is exactly what happened. Now looking
back at my time at Sem, I can see how much I have changed. When I
first entered in September 2010, I was a shy young girl with an awk-
ward sense of style. I could never have imagined that as early as my
sophomore year I would blossom into a talkative and outgoing Sem
girl. On the first day of my freshmen year, I would have guaranteed
that I would never give a tour of the school. However, I was horribly
mistaken. I have given at least thirty tours of the schools and have
hosted many girls when they have visited the school. Sem has given
me the confidence to give the tours and host the guests.
Before attending Sem, I was too scared to even speak in
class. In Orchard Park Middle School, I would sit
in my chair fearing that the teacher would
call on me. After spending about
three days at Sem, I was able to
overcome my fear of talk-
ing in class. The teach-
ers taught me that I
should share my opinions and ideas in class and not worry about what
others think. Sem taught me that I have to be the person who I was
meant to be and stand up for what I believe in. Now, thanks to Sem,
I am no longer the quiet one sitting in the back of the classroom hop-
ing not to be called on. As I start to prepare for college, I realize that
I would be not be the person I am today if I had not attended Buffalo
Seminary. Sem has taught me many important life lessons that no
other school or person will ever be able to teach me. One of those
skills includes leadership.
My first leadership opportunity came with a sport that I learned to
play when I came to Sem. During my sophomore year, I was named
Junior Varsity Field Hockey Captain. This was a big honor for me;
however, at the time I did not know if I could handle the responsibil-
ity of running the team. Yet, the thing that scared me even more was
making announcements for the team in front of the whole school at
morning meeting. During my time as captain, I learned skills such as
responsibility, leadership, and public speaking. Even though I broke
out in a rash and stumbled through every word of my announcement,
I was able to stand up in front of the school and do it. Thanks to the
family community at Sem who supported me through my many an-
nouncements, I was able to conquer my fear of public speaking. The
people who attend Buffalo Seminary are special women, we learn to
stand up for ourselves and be who we truly are during our time at this
school. Now in my senior year and a captain of the varsity field hockey
team, a representative on the community service board, and the edi-
tor of the school yearbook, I see how the skills that Sem has taught
me can be put to use in the real world. Currently I am in the process
of applying to college. I am applying to College of Charleston, Wake
Forest University, University of Mary Washington, Canisius College, St.
Lawrence University, and Bates College. As a result of attending Sem,
I have confidence to reach my full potential in life and live the path
that life has set forth for me. After attending undergraduate school, I
plan on attending medical school. I am hoping to become a dermatolo-
gist who will help patients who are suffering with skin cancer just like
my father has. I want to help those people who are suffering with the
skills and life lessons that I have learned while I was at Sem. All of us
who have attended Buffalo Seminary share a special
bond. We are independent, strong women
who can stand up for ourselves; how-
ever, when push comes to shove,
we are a family unit who is
always there to support
one another no mat-
ter what happens.
“Thanks to the family community at Sem who supported me through my
many announcements, I was able to conquer my fear of public speaking.”

My name is Hiba Al-Naji and I’m
a senior at SEM.
It’s mind boggling to think 4 short years ago I was in
the second month of my freshman year. Those first few
months were a challenge for me. I came from a small
Islamic School where my graduating class totaled 6 stu-
dents, 4 boys and 2 girls. SEM was never my first choice
school. My parents had drilled into my head that I would
be attending Grand Island Public school and there was no
question about it. In May of my 8th grade year, I saw a flyer outside
my guidance counselor’s office that said “SEM offers a 1-to-1 lap-
top program.” Right then and there I fell in love with a school that
I knew nothing about. I went home that day and did some research
and found that SEM had a lot to offer and brought the idea up to my
parents. The answer was no. I begged and even asked my guidance
counselor to speak to my mom. Luckily SEM was willing to accept a
late application. Without a definite answer from my mom, my previ-
ous school faxed over my transcripts and the next day my mother
received a phone call from Ms. Auwarter at SEM saying I needed to
come in the following day to take my entrance exam. I came in, took
the entrance exam, and the following day received a call from Ms.
Auwarter saying I scored exceptionally on both my math and English
and I would be a great addition to SEM. I was accepted and enrolled
into high school in 4 days. Too bad college isn’t like that!
Although many of us see SEM as a small school, it was like a college
tome;somanyclasses,somanydifferentfaces,allnewtome,andIwas
new to everyone, too. Itwasn’teasybeingtheonlygirlthatworeascarf
on her head when meeting all the incoming freshman for the first
time. I didn’t really feel welcome my first few days.
It wasn’t until Hornet/Jacket sleepover at SEM that
I made my mark on my class. Mr. Hopkins, the one
male teacher at the event, had gone home, leav-
ing nothing but a school filled with about 80 girls.
I went to the bathroom alone, took off my scarf,
fixedmyhair,andwalkedintothechapel.I felt like
a top model at that moment. Everyone came run-
ning up to me, feeling my hair, “your hair is so long
Hiba!” “your hair is beautiful” “you look like prin-
cess jasmine!” And in my head all I was thinking
was “yesssss, finally I can be a part of them.”
I soon learned that Sem is not about being
part of a group or clique. It is about being your-
self and giving it all you have to offer. I was nev-
er the type of person to speak in front of a large
crowd or confront people first. That changed
here. Freshman year I built up enough courage
to run for class president. I lost, but it was a great
learning experience. I ran again sophomore year,
again lost, but that didn’t stop me from running
another year, and finally I had talked my class-
mates into electing me. I can honestly say, I be-
lieve I was a great Junior Class president. I put in
a lot of time and effort. It was all worth it in the
end when my class showed great appreciation. I
had a great feeling inside knowing I was able to
give back to my school and community.
Throughout my years here I have been given the chance to
share my culture and religion with the school on numerous occa-
sions. I arranged for my previous principal to come in and give an
all school presentation about what it means to be a woman in Is-
lam. She explained how all the stereotypical ideas of Muslim wom-
an are false. Sophomore year, I traveled to Philadelphia for a stu-
dent diversity leadership conference where thousands of students
from around the world worked together and discussed topics re-
lated to diversity. We were introduced to activities which I brought
back to the student body of SEM. As co-president of Justice League
this year, I will be traveling to the same conference, this time in
DC, and hope to bring back more ideas. I am also president of Am-
nesty International and International Club. I want to open the eyes
of many to the human rights issues across the globe. We may be a
small school but we can make a difference, even if it just means
educating our communities about the reality of what’s happening
in many third world countries.
All that I’ve learned in past three years has truly prepared me for
a bright future. In high school I chose my pro-
fession early of pharmacy and have stuck with
it. This past summer I began an internship at
Roswell Park Cancer Institute in the depart-
ment of Urology, Robotic Surgery and Phar-
maceutical Sciences, and I am continuing my
internship during the school year. At Roswell I
have participated in labs where we test differ-
ent medicines that can show early stages of
cancer in the blood. I have also compiled a da-
tabase of over 1000 patients, that when com-
pleted, will be available to doctors, not only in
the hospital but very likely, nationwide.
I have great faith that my time and hard
work, my grades, job and my many hours of
community service each year will distinguish
my college application from other applicants.
I plan on attending the UB School of Pharma-
cy’s Early Assurance Program that allows high
school seniors to be accepted into the Gradu-
ate School of Pharmacy as a college freshman
and complete studies in six years. I know SEM
has prepared me well, not only for college, but
also for life after school. I’ve learned many les-
sons here that I will forever remember and I
feel very confident graduating this year know-
ing I’m prepared for bigger and better things.
“My goal for each
club is to give each
girl a voice and
unite our voices to
allow change.”

O
n a spring trip to Maine, Head of School, Jody Douglass caught
up with Nancy Hewitt Holler ’55 and Jane Genske Briggs ’52.
Barbara Fischer McQueeney ’74 asked Nancy, who recently
made a generous donation toward an endowed SEM scholarship, why
SEM was still so important in her life. Nancy’s SEM story will resonate
with our alumnae.
“By the time I was in 8th grade in School 16 on Delaware Avenue
in Buffalo, my mother was working as a substitute home economics
teacher in the city high schools. After
she spent some time at the high school
I was destined to attend, she decided
to look for an alternative and arranged
for me to take the scholarship exam
for Buffalo Seminary. The rest was his-
tory. I was able to go to SEM and three
years later, my sister enrolled as well,
also with scholarship help. My mother’s
foresight and wisdom at that time, and
the availability of scholarships, had a
lifelong effect on us.
“Being a student at SEM during my high school years gave me
many priceless gifts. Four years together in a small school resulted
in friends who still are dear to me. The chance to explore art, to learn
to sing parts in beautiful choral music, to paint sets and even have a
small part in a play--all this certainly enriched my life. But what was
Portland Maine Visit
unique at SEM was the culture of taking learning seriously.
“As I write this, it is clearer still that being a student at SEM
instilled in me the great gift of enjoying learning, which has
enriched my life ever since.”

entitled, I am an Animal, at the David Anderson Charita-

SEM and several other WNY community organizations.
