As a parish school, St. Francis Episcopal Day School is governed by a board of trustees. The makeup of the board is dictated by its by- laws, and it is led by the rector and his designated chair. Sixty percent of the board must be St. Francis church communicants (members in good standing), and 51 percent of the board must have at least one child at the day school at the time of first election. Anyone with understanding of board governance is eligible for nomination and may volunteer for the role by contacting a current trustee. Members are elected to a three-year term, renewable up to three terms (nine years).

Trustees hold the school in trust. They are therefore charged with the fiduciary responsibility of providing financial direction, security and long-term strategy for St. Francis Episcopal Day School, keeping the school’s best interests in mind. Members also review and maintain bylaws, hire and evaluate the head of school, and establish policies and plans consistent with the mission while leaving the day-to-day management of the school to the head of school and her staff.

These outstanding volunteers are the pillars of our commun- ity and the foundation of our success. Thank you all for your tremendous donation of time and energy over the past year.

Duncan Jr. ’69, Chair of the Investment Committee

As chairman of the Board’s Investment Committee, and sponsor of the school’s Investment Club, I am often asked about the school’s investments and, in particular, our endowment. To provide a better understanding of the important role our endowment plays in the school’s finances, I have prepared the following questions and answers. What is an endowment? The technical definition of an endowment is “funds or property donated to an institution, individual or group to an investment that will provide a source of income.” Typically, endowment gifts are held in perpetuity—that is to say that the earnings from the gift may be spent, but the corpus, the original gift, must remain in tact. At St. Francis Episcopal Day School, the endowment is made up partially from permanently restricted donations, but it also consists of funds that the board of trustees may use at its discretion to best serve the mission of the school. What are the goals of the St. Francis endowment? The board has established a policy through which the endowment supports the school’s operating fund annually. The school follows a conservative policy of drawing only 3 percent of the endowment’s three-year trailing average balance for this purpose. This policy allows the school to have a predictable source of income annually while permitting the endowment itself to grow. How are gifts to the endowment different from gifts to the Annual Fund? Both share the primary purpose of supporting the school’s operating fund. Gifts given to the Annual Fund are used the following year by the school. Gifts to the endowment have a greater impact on the school’s long-term goals and continue to provide support year after year. Who manages the endowment? The endowment is managed by the board of trustees’ Investment Committee with the assistance of investment specialists. The com- mittee currently retains two financial consulting groups to assist in the day-to-day management of the endowment and to provide counsel toward future investments. Overall, our approach is conservative and focused on long-term stable growth that provides for future generations of St. Francis students. The Investment Committee also operates within an asset allocation matrix approved by the board. How are gifts to the endowment received? Donations designated to the St. Francis Episcopal Day School endowment are immediately invested in the unrestricted portion of the endowment. Stocks, bonds and other items for which a donor does not want to pay capital gains tax may also be donated directly to the endowment in their current form. The school’s policy is to sell securities immediately and invest the proceeds. The donor receives the full, fair-market value of the gift on the date the contribution is received by St. Francis and a corresponding charitable income tax deduction. The St. Francis endowment is comparatively young and will need continued investment to grow. The school’s operating fund budget for the 2008–09 school year was $12 million, and it is recommended that a sufficient endowment should equal at least two-and-a-half John H. Duncan Jr. is chairman times an organization’s annual budget. However, the decrease in investment asset values that has affected us all caused our endowment of the Investment Committee.

As the Board of Trustees Finance Committee meets each year, its members are called to assess the short- and long-term needs and goals of the school, while also serving the St. Francis community as responsible stewards. This means taking into consideration the financial needs of programs, places and people; considering the im- pact any changes would have upon them; and continuing to provide a balanced tuition that takes into account market fluctuations. In light of this charge, and with the 2008 economic turn fresh in our minds, the committee developed a stra- tegic financial plan in spring 2009. Taking into account the needs of the school’s three educational divisions as well as its overall long-term goals, the plan uses a “just looking at dollars” approach to weigh the various stability markers, projected inflation and operating costs that will impact additions to the program. It further uses these data to determine the optimal timing of taking on new costs such as head count, program and facility additions and improvements. The board and the school’s administrators had been charged with identifying those projects that were truly a priority. As we went through the exercise of creating a strategic financial plan, we did just that. The group then looked at how to add those top-priority projects to the budget without creating major spikes in tuition or inhibiting the school’s ability to grant financial assistance or remain fiscally sound. The following were among the items we considered as we formulated our 2008–09 strategic financial plan: • The school’s long-term needs regarding improvements to facilities and programs—especially the needs of St. Francis’ Primary School and athletics programs • Long-term overviews of tuition and ways to keep tuition increases to a minimum while maintaining a quality program • Competitive and fair compensation for our faculty and staff • Adequate financial aid resources to further the mission of the school Patricia “Patti” Turner is chair of St. Francis Episcopal Day School’s Finance Commit- • Sufficient reserves for the PPRRSM fund (PPRRSM relates to building maintenance and ongoing tee.

I consider myself blessed in many ways from the experiences that my family and I have had with St. Francis through the years. As an alumna and a parent of an alumnus and two children currently at the school, I have seen firsthand the benefits afforded to our students. St. Francis provides so much more than just a competitive academic environment—it also offers an educational experience that goes far beyond the walls of the classroom. At St. Francis, important qualities such ast as self-confidence, honor, compassion, responsibility and respect are nurtured. eadm er’s C Our exceptional faculty dedicates itself to developing in our children these distinc- H ir tive qualities that will carry them far beyond their eighth grade year, and do so cl much more than just prepare them for high school.

I am so excited about the wealth of information and experiences I could bring back to my classroom. I was able to spend a week going to school in Costa Rica and living with a family. We attended class four hours each day and then took excursions each afternoon. Being immersed in the language and the culture was such an energizing and en- lightening experience. It is truly the best way to understand a different way of life. It gave me a new perspective on how children must feel when trying to learn another language and communicate successfully. I know it strengthened my proficiency immensely. I sincerely thank all the donors who made this trip a possibility and look forward to sharing the experience with my students for years to come. Inspired teaching is often what makes the difference between Lucy Ross, Spanish Department Chair a child who merely attends school and one who truly enjoys learning.

31 To the Class of 2009,

Thank you; I am overwhelmed by this selfless, far-reaching and generous gift. I would say that I am truly surprised except for the fact that this gift is coming from the Class of 2009. This class has been an exceptional class in countless ways, and this gift reflects accurately who you are: people for others. Not only have you served as leaders in this community, but your parents’ tireless dedication and support have been remark- able beyond that of any class that I can remember. This endowed fund is a first for our school and will have a lasting impact by providing financial aid for students in the years to come. The families of the Class of 2009 recognize how important a good education is to your future. You can see, even now, the many doors that are opening to you because of it. The fact that you are giving a gift that will enable others to receive a St. Francis education is symbolic of the positive impact you can make in the lives of others when you work together. Let me tell you what this means for St. Francis: It means that future students will benefit each year from your thoughtful gift by having the opportunity to walk these halls, make lasting friendships, learn from great faculty and deepen their faith. They will have a greater chance of attending the high schools and colleges of their choice and of successfully navigating the many challenges that lie ahead. We are so blessed that you have passed this gift on to our community. When you look back on your days here at St. Francis, remember that there will always be another student roaming the campus and enjoying a St. Francis education because of you.
