community. The recipient of the Oakley Service Award is that
person determined most closely to follow Charlie's example
of dedicated, highly effective service to others. All

The Surdyk Award
A Lovett family made a memorial contribution to the school's endowment which
generates funding for an annual award to be presented to a
Lovett faculty member or administrator who has provided an exceptionally high
degree of individual attention to and concern for students in
all areas of school life. The recipient must be actively
involved in classroom teaching. The Surdyk Award Committee,
consisting of the Headmaster, the Principals, and the Academic
Dean, meets each spring to select the person who best
exemplifies these characteristics. Any faculty or staff member
may recommend a nominee to the committee. Neither length of
employment at Lovett nor intentions to return for the coming
year are considerations. While the use of the award is
unrestricted, the donors are hopeful that some of the proceeds
can assist with the recipient's development of the craft of
teaching.
