Leaving a Legacy
With 146 years of experience at OES between them, six longtime employees celebrate their retirement.
MARTY EASTMAN-BROWN
First Grade Teacher 13 years at OES
Marty has been in a school system all of her life as a teacher and a student. In addition to OES she has taught in the Head Start program, a public school system, and a private international school in Tokyo, Japan.
Favorite OES memory? My favorite memories are exploring with the children the magic of all the various habitats that the OES campus has to offer. My classes have observed changes due to seasons, weather, or growth cycles. Tey have discovered incredible plants, birds, and other wildlife that share our OES world. We always come away with a sense of wonder that can become an observation or a story.
What are your retirement plans? In the future I look forward to traveling to see all of my international school friends who live all around the world. I also want to maintain a connection with OES by substitute teaching and volunteering. I hope I will always feel a part of the OES community.

JOAN LOWE
Summer Camp Director 17 years at OES
Joan joined OES at the encouragement of her son, Nathan ’98, who was a student here. Under her guidance the summer camp program has grown from one camp with 35 students in 1998 to 286 camps that will host around 3,500 students this summer.
What kept you at OES for this time? Te incredible families and their children are what really make it a worthwhile experience. I also have loved OES’s commitment to excellence and quality programming. It has been such a pleasure to work in an environment where quality matters first and foremost.
What are your retirement plans? I am hoping to spend some time painting and pursuing art. I am also looking forward to having more time to spend gardening and cooking. My only grandkids live in Kyrgyzstan and I have not been able to visit, as you need a few weeks since it is a two-day trip each way, so I will definitely be doing more travelling, especially visiting the grandkids.
