Winter Term-- Year in Review!

Wow. Hard to believe that our first season of NYSEF Winter Term is already in the books... and what a season it was! All told we had 11 athletes participate in our program:

Sebastian Galvan
Lily Silverstein
Olivia Reynolds
Julia Schneider
Hanna Petro
Calynn Cerniglia
Inez Burkard
Gavin Fritz
Max Klebba
Blake Piper
Quin Taylor

Congratulations to all of these athletes on a fantastic job this season! 

Here's a quick look back at a few great season memories: 

The Silverstein house-- a great place to start off our program!
Mmmmm. OTC!
Coach Putman's awesome workshop on mental focus and imagery came in useful this season

OK, NOW we've got Gavin and Sebastian in their element... cracking down during study hall

Dinner time!

Remember when Gavin rocked the homepage of NewSchoolers.com?!

Jacquie, Audrey and Inez checking out some bacteria strains. Thanks again to our friends Mrs. Walker and Ms. Fagan at Northwood School for letting us use the biology lab!

Dave, Quin, Inez, Calynn and Hanna chilling... just days before Sochi! The OTC was the perfect spot to follow the Games... some serious enthusiasm!

Our trip to the ski jumps!

This was from Elise Munn's awesome lecture and workshop on recovery... a blast, thanks Elise and the AMC team!

It's a NYSEF Super G podium! Trixie, Cecily and Olivia rockin' the top steps!

Thanks to all families and Winter Term participants-- it was a terrific season and we couldn't have asked for a more supportive group! Some major progress-- academically and athletically-- was made by all. 

Stay tuned to the NYSEF website for information on next year's Winter Term program!
