3 4 Baccalaureate The Baccalaureate for the Class of 2016, held at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church on Friday, May 27, 2016, was a beautiful service. The Honorable Scott Makar, who delivered the Baccalaureate Address, encouraged seniors to strive for “the joyous freedoms that come from pursuing a righteous life.”

After Baccalaureate, a senior reception allowed families to enjoy conversation and hors d’oeuvres. Attendees also enjoyed a slideshow in celebration of the Class of 2016 as well as a video of “advice” from seniors’ Grade 1 Buddies.

The 6th Annual St. Johns Celebrates! took place on Sunday, January 31, 2016 and was a fun-filled day for the entire family. Through St. Johns Celebrates! we share the very best of St. Johns with our broader community, to showcase how our students truly can “do every- thing” and “become anything.” This year’s event was no exception as choral, dance, and drama performances took place throughout the afternoon and soloists and chamber groups performed in the Pace Lecture Hall. The Kindergarten hosted games in the Lower School, and Pre-K3 and Pre-K4 danced and sang in French at the Chapel Oak. A cool kitchen chem- istry demonstration had the kids making ice cream and having a blast in the Upper School, while Grade 4 showed Book Creator projects and iMovie trailers across the Quad. Grade 9 hosted a poetry slam and there were Spartan Games for all ages in the gyms.

The 3D printing showcase helped newcomers to the technology understand 3D printing and its applications to daily life, and the ever-popular Frisbee dogs jumped and flew through the air to great applause.

The event also featured temporary tattoos, face painting, and food trucks and the fabulous International Food Café made another appear- ance in the Upper School.

Mr. Newsom surprises Jack Scheiner with a selfie during the Grade 5 Since the first St. Johns on Broadway in performance of South Pacific’s 1983, the show has come a long way. But “There is Nothing Like a Dame.” some things remain the same, including the way the show garners the support and involvement of the whole school. According to Mrs. Brenda Scott, Chair of the Performing Arts Department, “St. Johns on Broadway is a great experience for the kids. It’s a wonderful opportunity for them to see what goes into a production like this, from costumes to staging, rehearsals to the technical components. It gives the students a chance to shine on the stage or behind the scenes, and they just love it.”

Dear St. Johns Families and Friends:

We are thrilled to report that we have just put the wraps on another fantastic year of fundraising at St. Johns. For the fifth year in a row, the St. Johns Annual Fund set a new high-water mark in total funds raised. As of today, the School has received 543 gifts totaling more than $480,000! We cannot thank you enough for the tremendous outpouring of support we received from so many of you! Jonathan Montgomery and Ed Ellison

We owe a great deal of thanks to our Chairs, Tanya and Bill Powers, for their outstanding leadership of the Annual Fund. Working closely with our tireless and dynamic duo in development, Amy Weaver and Michelle Kirk, they organized a terrific group of parent, trustee, and alumni volunteers who made countless phone calls and wrote personal notes urging parents from every grade as well as other members of the St. Johns community to participate in this year’s Annual Fund. These energetic volunteers were strong advocates for the school and shared a positive message about philanthropic support, resulting in increased participation by parents and alumni this year.

So what have we been doing with these funds? For starters, gifts earmarked specifically for upgrades to our baseball facilities have turned our diamond into the envy of every other baseball program in Clay County. We were able to make substantial improvements to the sound and lighting systems in the Performing Arts Center – just in time for St. Johns on Broadway. Along with the theater upgrades, we were able to purchase percussion instruments for our concert and symphonic bands. This summer, we will put the finishing touches on the much-anticipated and long-overdue upgrades to the physical education locker room project we began with funds from the 2015 Gala & Auction event. In addition, we were able to support additional travel and workshops for faculty professional development and we acquired additional technology hardware to support the expanded roll-out of the iPad program. Of course, a healthy portion of the funds were used to support day-to-day operation of the school not entirely covered by tuition.

The best investment money can buy isn’t about money. It’s about the right environment for children to learn and discover themselves, a place which opens doors for students and instills the character and confidence to walk through them. At St. Johns we accomplish this through an academic program whose challenges students are intent on meeting; teachers who understand their students and bring out their best; plentiful and accessible arts, sports, and other enriching activities that enable students to find and develop all their talents; a peaceful and safe campus with some amazing facilities; and a caring community where all are welcomed and respected. The funds you have so generously committed to our mission will be used to ensure that an investment in a St. Johns education remains the best investment a parent can make.

Please accept our most sincere thanks and appreciation for your incredible generosity this year. We hope you are enjoying a relaxing summer vacation with your family and friends.

Warm regards,

Edward M. Ellison Jonathan C. Montgomery Headmaster President, Board of Trustees

St. Johns Country Day School Annual Fund 67 SUPPORTING TheAnnual Fund

What is the Annual Fund? Each year St. Johns Country Day School seeks contributions to the Annual Fund, primarily in unrestricted gifts, to help enhance the St. Johns experience. All St. Johns constituents (parents, alumni, alumni parents, faculty and staff, grandparents, and friends) are asked to consider an annual gift to ensure that St. Johns can fulfill its mission of providing a superior college preparatory program to all students. How are contributions used? In past years the Annual Fund was a project-based fundraiser, but the Annual Fund now supports all aspects of the school’s mission. Gifts to the Annual Fund ensure that current and future St. Johns students continue to experience the fine education that this wonderful school has offered for over 60 years.

Gifts to the Annual Fund provide St. Johns with the resources to enrich the learning environment and support:

• Faculty professional development • Curriculum and program enhancements • Special events and activities (field trips, athletics, arts programs) • Technology and facilities Every gift, large and small, is important. Invest In St. Johns Today

68 Why We Give

Our family has been a part of St. Johns for the last ten years and our St. Johns experience is more than academics. It’s the things that our son has learned beyond the classroom – such as self-discipline, responsibility, compassion, and teamwork. Plus, Jackson has gained a sense of confidence and a level of independence required for success in life. We also feel a sense of family at St. Johns with the close network of parents who share a similar goal and with teachers who put their hearts into teaching our children.

~Tanya and Bill Powers, parents

Our grandson, Shane, has attended St. Johns since Pre-Kindergarten and is now in Grade 3. He is learning so much and has had so many amaz- ing experiences at St. Johns. We can see firsthand that Shane is receiving a wonderful education. Our family is proud to support St. Johns!

~Ford and Sandy Cox, grandparents

Giving is a practicality, as well as a way to demonstrate we understand we have the privilege of being a part of something important. I like that my participation is ongoing, because on those many occasions my children demonstrate profound and visible evidence of their St. Johns education, I know I have already tangibly, and repeatedly, said “thank you.”

~Leslie Ritch, administrator/teacher and parent of alumni
