The Upper School Robotics team 12H finished as division champions and advanced to the finals at the VEX Robotics World Championships in Dallas – the largest robotics competition in the world. They finished second in the world – a school and Virginia State record. Seniors Ben Bartlett, Claire Coker, Rohan Iyer, and sophomore Elaina Song competed hard. Upon their return to school, the team was greeted by US Head Doug McLane, parents, and students with a surprise party! The IS Robotics teams gleefully welcomed them as well. The event was presented by the Northrop Grumman Foundation and the REC Foundation, and some sponsors include NASA and Google. Congrats to our robotics program!
Potomac celebrated our planet with a variety of activities throughout April. All 100 LS and MS classes and IS and US Advisories were invited to get outside in honor of our natural world. Check out this photo gallery to see how our K-12 students enjoyed being outdoors together to love nature and live responsibly during Earth Month 2023. Potomac also held a wonderful Farmers Market on Friday, April 21, during which K-12 students purchased produce from local farms, as well as honey, fresh fruit, vegetables, and healthy baked goods generously donated by members of our community. A big thank you to PEA leaders Lauren Flanagan and Marie Hasan for spearheading this meaningful environmental stewardship event. Thank you also to our food service staff from Meriwether Godsey for providing fresh produce and helping with the popular smoothie station.
Last Friday, our connected community celebrated Potomac’s time-honored tradition of May Day, which marks winter’s transition to spring and summer. We hope this year’s blend of music, dance, poetry, and learning will be a model for many May Days to come. It was a beautiful day to be together on campus! Enjoy the colorful photo gallery.
Over the weekend, 17 band students in Middle, Intermediate, and Upper School and four string students in Middle and Intermediate School participated in the 2023 VBODA Solo and Ensemble Festival at Rocky Run Middle School. These students chose a piece of music to perform as a solo or with a small ensemble, spent extra time outside of class learning the piece, and performed it before a judge for a rating. Their hard work paid off, as all Potomac students that participated earned a rating of 'Superior' or 'Excellent.' We are very proud of all our student musicians for taking on this extra challenge and representing Potomac so well!
Thanks to the Fathers Association of The Potomac School for hosting a successful Campout, which drew more than 400 members of our community. It was a memorable experience for everyone, and the smiles were contagious! The kids enjoyed “helping” parents set up campsites with all the essentials, roasting s’mores, hiking, and singing songs. Families were glad to be together in nature, and the event was an excellent way to celebrate the great outdoors. Thanks to everyone who helped to organize the Campout! Enjoy the photo gallery.
Next Friday, May 12, is Grandparents and Special Friends Day for the Lower, Middle, and Intermediate Schools. We are excited to welcome our guests, with more than 400 already registered. For guests visiting multiple students, we encourage you to consult the schedule and plan their visit to make the most of the day; view the full schedule. Because we are expecting so many grandparents and special friends, we cannot accommodate parents. Please encourage your grandparent or special friend to register to attend if they have not done so already.
The PEA would like to thank everyone who contributed to their Earth Month efforts. Special thanks go to Mr. Cort Morgan for leading Stewardship Day’s weeding and planting efforts; Ms. Lisa McLane for her help with the Farmers Market planning; and Mr. Albert Pingree ‘00 and Mr. Sean Conroy, whose time, expertise, and hard work made each Earth Month activity possible. A big thanks to the teachers for bringing their classes to the Farmers Market and managing their honey stick-fueled energy for the rest of the day! The PEA also thanks Bartlett Tree Service for donating saplings, and all the parents and families who walked, weeded, baked, donated, and volunteered.

After the May Day celebration on Friday, students, including leaders in the sixth grade Students for Environmental and Service Learning Action committee, repurposed May Day flowers to create 30 bouquets. The students delivered the arrangements to older adults at Chesterbrook Residences, one of Potomac's community partners. The delivery coincided with dinner at Chesterbrook, and the students were met with applause and smiles from everyone in Potomac's first in-person visit since the start of the pandemic. Thank you to the PA Service Learning Committee for donating gently-used vases used for the service project, and thank you to our students for spreading May Day joy to older adults in our community!

Seventh graders collaborated for their “Our Life in the IS” art unit. First, they explored and scouted meaningful IS locations, took photographs of themselves in these environments, worked in pairs, and chose a photo to work from for their large painting. The students mixed all their colors from a palette of primary colors. It was wonderful to see the students work together on all aspects of this project.

On Tuesday, April 25, the College Counseling Office hosted Victoria Dawe, senior assistant dean of admissions for Johns Hopkins University. Ms. Dawe met with the entire junior class during Panther Time to talk about jumpstarting the brainstorming process when writing their personal essay. Students learned about the role of the essay in the admission process and critiqued two essays to assess the effectiveness of each. Last week, the College Counseling Office and Compass Education Group hosted a webinar to share information about the landscape of standardized testing and the shift to adaptive, computer-based testing. A recording of the webinar can be found here.
On April 20, sophomore Adam Bhatti hosted an insightful discussion featuring Dr. M. Hisham Naji, renowned anesthesiologist and DC chapter president of the Syrian American Medical Society. Dr. Naji shared firsthand information about the devastating impacts of the earthquake in Syria and emphasized the significance of supporting fundraising efforts for the Syrian people.

The road to despair is paved with “the best intentions.” When closed minds lead, and others follow, the best intentions often yield tragic and unexpected results. The townspeople in the upcoming US play, The Diviners, have nothing but the best intentions in mind – but will someone pay the ultimate price for their cause?
The Potomac Upper School Theatre will present The Diviners for their final show of the season on Friday, May 12, at 6:30 pm and Saturday, May 13, at 2:00 pm and 7:00 pm. Please pre-register for tickets; admission is free. There will be a 10 minute audience discussion after the performance on Friday and Saturday evening. Poster artwork designed by senior Lina Jaeger.
This year's “Guess the Grad” presentation in honor of our seniors is now available. Viewers get to see an adorable baby picture and guess which amazing Potomac graduate that little person grew up to be. Enjoy the slideshow – and see how many you can guess correctly!
The Upper School Spring Concert was an entertaining evening of music that featured more than 100 performers and six ensembles. The audience enjoyed a moving choral setting of the poem Where Your Bare Foot Walks, the motet O magnum mysterium by Spanish composer Tomas Luis de Victoria, and others.
The Concert Handbell ensemble shared multiple rhythmic pieces entitled Friend of Mine, Bound for South Australia, and the Bruno Mars hit Grenade. The Honors Handbell Ensemble closed out the first half with Rondo Borincano, Fancye, and Britney Spears’ critically acclaimed Toxic.
The String Orchestra performed a piece by Mozart, followed by John Williams’ Theme from Schindler’s List. Faculty member Mr. Nicholas Tkach once again had one of his original compositions on the program, this one entitled Dramatic Overture from his opera Antigone. The string orchestra finished with the classic 12-bar blues Green Onions featuring many soloists.
Fresh off their NYC tour, Concert Band first performed After Pandora, a piece of contrasting themes before closing their portion of the performance with the title theme from Stephen Sondheim’s musical Into the Woods. Jazz Band’s first piece was the Grammy-award winning song No Time to Die before bringing the house down with the jazz standard Take Five, written by Paul Desmond for the Dave Brubeck Quartet.
Photos from the evening can be found here.
Last Thursday, our Active Minds Club led by seniors Max Revis, Ella Adamec, and Will Hart sponsored an assembly and lunchtime conversation featuring guest speaker Abraham Sculley. During his freshman year, Abraham fell into a deep depression. At the time, he did not know it was depression due to growing up in a Jamaican-American household where mental health and seeking help were not discussed. After a concerned friend reached out, Abraham sought support from the counseling services on his college campus. Abraham decided to take a 3-month break, which helped him return to school with a new outlook. Abraham graduated with a bachelor's degree in psychology and is now a mental health advocate speaking around the country to raise awareness and break down the stigma.
We were lucky to have a strong turnout and beautiful weather for this year's Junior/Senior Prom. Our students enjoyed a wonderful opportunity to be together with dinner, dancing, and time together.
Ben Schirmeier '23 recently auditioned for and was selected to perform with the Virginia Band and Orchestra Directors Association (VBODA) All-Virginia Concert Band on percussion, a highly competitive honor for high school musicians. This past weekend, Ben traveled to Richmond, Virginia, and the All-Virginia Concert Band, featuring Ben on percussion, gave a stunning performance at the Greater Richmond Convention Center. Congratulations, Ben, on this remarkable achievement!
We’ve got spirit - yes we do! Our community has six opportunities to cheer on our scholar-athletes in a variety of matchups that will occur during Grills and Games:
The Potomac track team set 25 personal bests this past weekend at Chantilly High School's XBC Invitational. In the 800m Alex Mathews '24 ran 2:03, Noah Altschuler '25 ran 2:12 and Ella Lu '25 ran 2:38. For the 2 miler, Sasha Minsky ‘24 ran 9:44 while Arielle Kouyoumdjian '25 and Kate Tuttle '24 both broke 12 minutes, with Emmy Holland ('24) breaking 13 minutes. Nasir Yankey '26 improved by over 10 feet in the discus. Michele Horton '26 improved by over 6 feet in the triple jump and placed third overall. We compete next at the Dogwood Invitational at UVA on May 6.
The varsity baseball team enters the final week of the regular season with a record of 16-4, and is tied for first in the MAC with a 8-2 conference record. Over the past two weeks, the Panthers had three mercy-rule wins over St. Andrew's (twice) and St. James, as well as a 6-3 win over cross-town rival Flint Hill. Davide Bertuzzi '23, Paul Witkop '24, Jack Graham '24, and David Boehm '24 all delivered strong performances on the mound, with Witkop and Graham throwing complete games in their starts.
On the offensive side, the top of the lineup set the tone, as Marcus Burrell '23, Kelly Crittenberger '23, Owen Peterson '24, and Witkop combined for 22 hits and 25 RBI across the four games, and there were additional contributions from everyone on the roster. Coming up Friday, the Panthers will take on Sidwell Friends on senior night in a matchup that will likely decide the MAC regular season title.
