Annual Report 2007-08 We believe… Annual Report 2007–08 We believe… …in a vision of educational excellence that began over 175 years ago. Our definition of excellence is constantly evolving, yet the fundamentals remain. Our goal is to equip boys with the skills and values they will require — to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world — while also nurturing strong character development. This Annual Report reflects our community’s belief in the UCC experience. Each gift of time or financial support reveals a shared commitment to an educational experience that will help shape tomorrow’s thinkers, creators, dreamers and leaders. It is this collective belief that sustains the school’s vision and safe- guards the College’s legacy. For this belief in our boys and their future, we thank you. Please note: This Annual report is a statement of the fiscal health of Upper Canada College and its related Foundations for the period ending June 30, 2008. This report contains a listing of gifts provided by members of the UCC community. Our donors and friends are important to us. Those who have requested anonymity do not appear in this listing.

While my experience at Upper Canada College gave me the confidence and inspiration to dream of, and then pursue, a career in film and television, it also taught me to believe in myself, my capabilities and my potential. As a realist as well as a dreamer, I believe it is a critical time to demonstrate our collective belief in our students and their capabilities as they embrace a world of complexity and change. Our boys face a future in which technology and media reduce geographical distance, giving them a working familiarity with other cultures unfathomable even a decade ago. It will be a world in which environmental and political challenges will compel our boys to become engaged and connected members of both local and international communities. Tomorrow’s leaders and thinkers will be those equipped with the judgment and skills required to actively contribute to a world of diverse perspectives, cultures and backgrounds. As we teach our boys to navigate this changing world, the College plans to increase accessibility to UCC so that even more outstanding students, regardless of financial means, will receive an excep- tional education. The cornerstone of the plan is an ambitious effort to greatly increase the level of financial assistance available, from a current level of approximately six per cent, to 20 per cent over the next decade. Equally exciting is the College’s renewed commitment to the revitalization of the boarding program which will see the development of an exemplary and focused residential program that will better meet the needs of outstanding boys drawn from across the country and around the world. Our belief in our students unites us as a community and drives us to offer our support to the school. This past year, the College was fortunate to have received more than $7 million in total donations. On behalf of the Board of Governors, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our donors for their generous gifts, for volunteering their time and talents, and for demonstrating their belief in, and commitment to, both the UCC educational experience and to our boys. — Michael MacMillan ’74 2 Message from the Principal In today’s world, memorization of facts and figures is no longer considered a central facet of a balanced education. While an encyclopedic memory may help at Jeopardy, we believe it is our mission to gradu- ate students who possess strength of character and who are able to effectively navigate change while managing ambiguity. That is why UCC’s new Strategic Plan, announced in October 2007, placed a renewed focus on character development and integrity. Our goal is to graduate students who can grasp and analyze the scope of global challenges; students with emotional and practical intelligence; students with the skills required to respond and adapt to a world in flux. In essence, we aim to support the development of young men who demonstrate sound intellect, personal integrity and a deeper understanding of, and compassion for, the world in which we live. Global and community outreach work continues to play a central part in our efforts to produce world citizens equipped with the skills required to problem solve tomorrow’s dilemmas. Indeed, over the past year, UCC students have tested their mettle by connecting with communities both locally and globally. Highlights from the past year include: • A children’s book drive, held at the Prep, by Form 1 students in October 2008. Books collected were then shipped to a YMCA in Liberia. • An excursion made by eight Upper School students to one of the poorest regions of Mexico where they helped to build village cabanas. In addition, 21 students spent March Break in the Amazon, helping to build a school. • The continued evolution of the Horizons’ Program saw more than 100 gifted inner-city students spend two weeks with its new media studies program, test-driving and developing programs for sturdy, child-friendly laptop computers, some of which were shipped for use in developing world classrooms. So, we have a lot to feel good about. However, sitting on our laurels is not our way. We are always striving to improve UCC, and I’m confident this coming year will be an even better one. While these initiatives broaden students’ perspectives outside the classroom, the new Strategic Plan also aims to widen the scope of student experience closer to home. In an effort to offer “big school” opportunities in a “small school environment,” UCC will continue to expand and enhance its programs and facilities. The entire UCC community will benefit from the newly-opened double-pad William P. Wilder Arena & Sports Complex, while students will enjoy more “small school” experiences with the introduction of smaller, seminar-style classes that have been designed to address the learning needs of different age groups. We are always looking to see how we can be better tomorrow. For our boys, focused on their school experience, tomorrow may seem worlds away. Through the dedicated efforts and support of teachers, parents, Old Boys and friends, we are able to arm our students with the skills they will need to engage and connect with an increasingly globalized world, regardless of the path they choose in the future. — Jim Power 3 Board & Governance Members of UCC’s Board of Governors are elected.
