REMEMBERING MRS. PAPARA

The BA community is saddened to learn that Mrs. Emily Papara, one of our most beloved former teachers, has passed away. Mrs. Papara served at BA as a Level 1 teacher from 1975-1993.

We'd like you to share your favorite memories of Mrs. P. To do so, send your memories via email to the Advancement Office. We will keep you informed regarding memorial arrangements when details are made available.

ALUMNI HAPPENINGS

Anika Washburn '18 ended her 2022 collegiate soccer season with a bang. The standout BA soccer captain and 2017 State champion, finished her season with an appearance in another championship - the NCAA Division III National Championship.

Although her Case Western Reserve team lost in the championship game, National Runner-Up is an incredible accomplishment for the program. This is a program in which Anika dominates the record books. Now in her senior year, Anika has set school records at Case in points, goals, goals per game, game-winning goals, and shots on goal. She also tied the school record in career assists.

Congratulations to Anika on an incredible season and career at Case Western Reserve University!

Fawzi Ali '14 was recently on campus to share his insight during Mr. Jim Vaughn’s “Celebrate Computer Science Week.” Fawzi is a data scientist at Syneos Health. He works with healthcare claims and digital marketing data.

A.B.E. CLUB



The A.B.E. Club is a giving option that allows you to contribute monthly to the Annual Fund, scholarships, or other areas directed by you, the donor. Membership in the Club allows you to conveniently provide our students with all they need to succeed and helps ensure the success of BA into the next 60 years.

By donating to the A.B.E. Club, you will receive an A.B.E. patch. In the '70s and '80s, patches were awarded to Lower School students in Levels 1-5 in recognition of achieving the Honor Roll for a full term. Students proudly wore these patches on the sleeves of their jackets. As a member of the A.B.E. Club, you will receive an original patch.
