Celebrating the Legacy of Dr. Siri Akal Khalsa

More than 200 members of the CH-CH community gathered in the Beaver Gymnasium on Saturday, April 5, 2014 to honor the career and celebrate the legacy of Dr. Siri Akal Khalsa at Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall. Parents, alumni, trustees, city officials, and friends came together to pay tribute to Siri Akal’s contributions to CH-CH during his 14-year tenure. 
 
Dean of Faculty Cindy Ludlam shared her gratitude for Siri Akal’s mentoring, and credited the School’s evolution as the premier multiple intelligences secondary school to his vision and leadership.  Head of School Lance Conrad announced the creation of the Khalsa Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning as a way to perpetuate Siri Akal’s ideals, and screened a video (http://youtu.be/zowYjNaJgxg) showing the ways in which the Center, scheduled to open in fall, 2014, will serve as a hub for academic innovation on campus.  In her remarks, Board of Trustees Chair Anna Colton praised Siri Akal for his commitment to our students, and, quoting from Ithaka, C.P. Cavafy’s classic poem about one’s journey of discovery in life, expressed her appreciation for his tenure at CH-CH.
