  • Dear Applicant Families
    Dear Applicant Families, As independent schools, we are varied in our educational philosophies and programs but united in our commitment to ethical practices in our admission offices. The Heads of the undersigned Los Angeles schools have agreed to the following principles of good practice for K – 12 admissions: In order to minimize timing dilemmas for applicant families, we have agreed to these common notification and reply dates for fall 2017 admission: Grades 9-12: Notification letters will be sent on Friday, March 10, 2017 Email notifications can be sent at 5pm on Friday, March 10, 2017 Replies will be due on Tuesday, March 21, 2017 Grades K-8: Notification can be sent on Friday, March 17, 2017 Email notifications can be sent starting at 5pm on Friday, March 17, 2017 Replies will be due on Monday, March 27, 2017 Once notifications have been sent, schools will not initiate visits, whether for individuals or groups (e.g., through open houses). We are mindful of the disruption to students’ education in their current schools that additional visits to prospective schools can cause, so we do not encourage such visits. However, schools that receive requests for newly admitted students and/or parents may grant those requests at their discretion. No applicant or applicant family will be contacted by any representative of the school – once admissions notification begins. Of course, admitted students and their parents are welcome to contact schools to have questions answered. We share an interest in making the independent school application experience as informative and enjoyable as possible. And we are joined in our conviction that the independent school world can offer unique and rich educational opportunities for young people.

The Association serves and strengthens its schools by setting standards of academic quality and ethical conduct, by providing for the professional growth of faculty, administrators, and trustees, and by promoting ra- cial, ethnic, and socio-economic diversity. Member schools vary widely, ranging in size from 32 to 1819 students; providing cam- puses that are urban, suburban or rural; enrolling student bod- ies that are coeducational or single sex; and offering boarding and day facilities. The majority of schools are secular, but many are religiously affiliated. About Independent Schools Independent schools are pre-collegiate, non-profit institutions that are independently governed by Boards of Trustees and supported by tuition revenue, charitable contributions, and endowment income, rather than by taxes or major funding from religious organizations.

    Chadwick Schools develop global citizens with keen minds, exemplary character, self-knowledge and the ability to lead. ANNUAL REPORT 26800 South Academy Drive, Palos Verdes Peninsula, CA 90274-3997 www.chadwickschool.org 2015-16 OUR GRATITUDE And the gifts that launched 4,000 lives. In 1935, Margaret Lee Chadwick started on the path to make her educational vision a reality— to establish a K-12 coeducational school whose graduates would develop keen minds, exemplary character, self-knowledge and the ability to lead. Soon, transformative gifts from Frank Vanderlip, Sr., and Fred and Edna Roessler put Chadwick School on the map, and the school flourished. Now in its 80th year, Chadwick boasts campuses in both Palos Verdes and Songdo, South Korea, with more than 4,000 alumni throughout the world. Our alumni include Rhodes and Fulbright ON THE COVER scholars, research scientists and doctors, visual and performing artists, Olympians, authors, Director of the Upper School Mark Wiedenmann, Gabi Martinez ’18 and Myles Rosenzweig ’18 and leaders in business, law and technology. With every entering Chadwick student and family, the impact of the original gifts—and those of all of our generous parents, alumni, trustees, faculty and friends—increases. Our gratitude grows as well for each member of the Chadwick community whose support brings the school’s mission to life. INSIDE 3 Introductions 7 From the Headmaster 8 From the Chair of the Board Thank you for helping to ensure an outstanding educational experience for every Chadwick student. 9 Board of Trustees Through them, you are shaping the future. 12 Financials 15 Recognizing Annual Giving 27 Annual Fund 45 Other Gifts 52 Endowment Funds 58 Planned Giving 62 Events 62 7th Annual Chadwick Golf Tournament 63 #LoveWick Day 64 Parent Organizations 2015-16 ANNUAL REPORT 3 AT OUR CORE Shared values and a supportive community.
