Resource Group 175 Page 2 Santa Catalina School Head of School Position Statement Start Date: July 1, 2022 SCHOOL HISTORY Santa Catalina School for Girls was founded by the Dominican Sisters of San Rafael in 1950 under the leadership of Mother Margaret Thompson, Mother General of the Dominican Congregaon. In its opening year, the School welcomed 40 girls, 32 in 5th through 8th grades and eight in 9th and 10th grades. Sister Mary Kieran led the School from 1950-1965, followed by Sister Carloa (1965-2002) and Sister Claire (2002-2016). Santa Catalina separated from the Dominican Order in the mid-70’s and became an independent school. A core group of six sisters remained in place and created exceponal programs and laudable stability. In 1971, the School expanded to include a coed Pre-kindergarten and Kindergarten, with its first coed eighth-grade class graduang in 1982. To its credit, the School made a remarkably successful transion to Margaret Bradley, its first “lay leader,” in 2016, and all agree that the School has connued to flourish. LOCATION, FACILITIES, AND FINANCES Santa Catalina is situated in a spectacular seng just a few miles from the Pacific coast in Monterey and near the seaside communies of Carmel and Pacific Grove. The campus is stunningly beauful, with tradional hacienda-style buildings, a gracious chapel built in 1954 as well as more modern architecture such as the “C2” science and math building, named for Sisters Claire and Chrisne, designed by a Santa Catalina alum and completed in 2016. Purpose-built arts facilies, commodious dormitories, and light-filled classrooms are nestled in rolling green open space, with a nearby athlec field, gymnasium, track, tennis courts, and pool. Gardens and lovely outdoor gathering spaces round out the beauful campus offerings. Resource Group 175 Page 3 Santa Catalina School Head of School Position Statement Start Date: July 1, 2022 Financially, the School has been consistently well-managed. Santa Catalina carries no debt and has set aside strong reserves (which will need to be replenished ajer the Covid crisis abates). The School enjoys a $47M endowment and recently completed a successful $50M capital campaign for endowment, building projects, and tuion assistance. There has been remarkable Annual Fund growth over the past several years, with the Santa Catalina community crossing the $1M mark in 2020. The singular challenge is enrollment, which, while on an upswing before the pandemic, has not filled the dormitories (or high school day student populaon) to capacity. Lower School enrollment vacillates depending upon Monterey Bay demographics and will need aSenon as well. THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY Students The coed Lower and Middle School currently numbers 247 students, PreK-Grade 8, with 27% students of color, primarily Hispanic and Asian. Financial aid is awarded to 47% of LMS students. The gender balance in the LMS is relavely even, although there is oen a slightly higher number of girls. The Upper School currently enrolls 209 young women, 103 boarding and 106 day students. (The capacity for the residenal program is 160 students.) Internaonal students in the residenal program currently hail from Mexico, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Jakarta, Switzerland, Germany, and South Korea. Domesc boarding students come from 13 different states with a majority from the west coast, 29% of whom are students of color. With the significant influx of internaonal students in the Upper School residenal program, Santa Catalina provides a defining global perspecve for all students.

    XXXXX SFChronicle.com | Sunday, March 11, 2018 | A9 CaliforniaAssociation of IndependentSchools Statement on Gun Violence and School Safety As the Board of Directors of the California Association of Independent Schools, we join our Executive Director and the undersigned colleagues from our member schools —aswell as other independent, religious, and proprietaryschools throughout California —inanguish over the February14school shooting in Parkland, Florida. We extend our deepest sympathy to the families of the victims of this and everyschool shooting, and we stand in unwavering support of the survivors. We also stand in full solidarity with concerned educators nationwide. Today,school shootings are appallinglyroutine. Innocent lives of flourishingyoung people have been cut short, and students of everyage in countless communities are afraidtogotoschool. These students are our futureleaders. They and others, with amyriad of different perspectives, are also eager to change this paradigm by navigating our democratic processes, by engaging in respectful civic discourse, and by acting as catalysts for needed change, which we heartily applaud. We need to listen to their voices and respond to their pleas to make schools safe. As educators and as citizens, we are proud Republicans, Democrats, and Independents who believethatour countryneed notchoose between the rightful protection of responsiblegun ownership and the necessaryprevention of gun violence. We believe thatthe epidemic of gun violence in schools is an issue of non-partisan urgency, one thatdemands ahigher duty of care. We recall with admiration the ability to rise above partisanship on this issue displayed by two former Presidents, DemocratJimmy Carter and Republican Ronald Reagan, both of whom owned guns. In 1994, they worked together to help reduce the number of dangerous weapons available to private citizens.

    2019 ANNUAL REPORT oliverscholars.org 1 WELCOME Dear Friends of Oliver Scholars, 2019 was a year of significant changes and transformation for Oliver Scholars. We welcomed a new CEO, along with new members of our senior leadership team; we embarked on a strategic planning process to ensure the long-term sustainability of our institution; we expanded our outreach to include the CEO Salon Series; we launched new partnerships to help our college scholars and recent college graduates access expanded career opportunities; our work together was featured on CBS This Morning and CNN Heroes; and we began the process of reimagining and deepening our work with scholars, partner schools, parents, and alumni. Luckily, we did not have to start from scratch. The truth is that Oliver Scholars has a long track record of engaging with scholars and other stakeholders in ways that reflect the kind of care, intention, and thought you’d expect from any world-class youth-serving organization. Our current scholars and accomplished and engaged alumni often bear witness to the transformative impact this organization has had on their lives. Time and time again, as we spoke with members of this amazing community, there was one unifying word that showed up in every conversation: FAMILY. As an organization that is not only committed to opening new Dr. Danielle R. Moss educational pathways for our young people, but one that also has a Chief Executive Officer long-standing commitment to nurturing future generations of Black and Latinx leaders, Oliver Scholars often talk about the sense of family and deep connection that have become hallmarks of this organization over the last 35 years.
