I couldn't stop looking — or reading!  An ambitious magazine undertaking with outstanding, professional results.  Exceptional photography.  Superb use of cutlines that created mini-stories of their own.  I was drawn into each article and learned "something new" on every page.  (Do they make Oaki suits for adults?)  Bravo, Gardner.  Well-done, indeed.

Lovely design, showcases all the aspects of the life of the school with really nice photography, an appealing offering for parents.

I thought this piece really knocked it out of the park.  Olney Friends quite naturally will appeal most readily to certain "types" of students: out-of-the box thinkers/learners who have a maturity and an intellectual curiosity that, likely, has already set them apart throughout their educational experience. This piece speaks to these impulses in an entirely "adult" manner.  I found the blend of Quaker tenets, academic program and co-curriculars to be well organized and appealing.  Excellent photography, too.

Well designed with clearly articulated philosophy...nice admissions piece!

Simple and effective, with a beautiful hidden depth, this is school marketing on a shoe string at its best. The content is warm and inviting and supported by images that resonate and pull on the heart strings of parents. I want to visit this school and meet this lady. Her charm and passion as an educator shone through and therefore makes this a very worthy winner.
