Ford Foundation The mission of The Edward E. Ford Foundation is to strengthen and support independent secondary schools and to challenge and inspire them to leverage their unique talents, expertise and resources to advance teaching and learning throughout this country by supporting and disseminating best practices, by supporting efforts to develop and implement models of sustainability, and by encouraging collaboration with other institutions. 10 As of June, 2018, the Edward E. Ford Foundation Board has awarded more than 2,000 grants valued at over $122,000,000 to over 900 different schools since its inception in 1957. Over the last few decades, the Foundation has required schools to raise matching funds, which has resulted in over $110,000,000 in additional support for the projects funded. 11 Policies of the Foundation • Must be an NAIS member school with a 9-12 program • Mission to serve a diverse population • Head of school must have served at least 2 years • Schools and Associations must wait 4 years between applications • Good stewardship 12 The EE Ford Foundation Grant Cycles Traditional Grants June, November $25,000-$100,000 Leadership Grants April (School Initiated) $250,000 13 Abington Friends School The Lawrenceville School Academy of Notre Dame de Namur Linden Hall School for Girls The Agnes Irwin School Malvern Preparatory School Archmere Academy Moorestown Friends School The Baldwin School Moravian Academy Church Farm School Mount Saint Joseph Academy Delaware Valley Friends School The Pennington School Doane Academy The Perkiomen School The Episcopal Academy Princeton Day School Sanford School ADVIS schools that have The Shipley School received grants from EE Ford over the years Friends’ Central School Solebury School Friends Select School St. Andrew’s School Delaware George School St. Joseph’s Preparatory School Germantown Academy The Tatnall School Germantown Friends School Tower Hill School Harrisburg Academy Valley Forge Military Academy The Haverford School Westtown School The Hill School William Penn Charter School Holy Ghost Preparatory School Wilmington Friends School Kohelet Yeshiva High School The Woodlynde School Lancaster Country Day School Wyoming Seminary16 38 Leadership Grants have been made since 2008 2008 2009 Garrison Forest (MD) Punahou (HI) George School (PA) Westminster (GA) Germantown Friends (PA) Winchester Thurston (PA) Hathaway Brown (OH) Windward (NY) Lawrenceville (NJ) 2010 2011 Harpeth Hall (TN) Cambridge School of Weston (MA) Norfolk Academy (VA) Harley School (NY) Prairie School (WI) Santa Fe Prep (NM) Tabor Academy (MA) 17 38 Leadership Grants have been made since 2008 2012 2013 2014 Flintridge Prep (CA) Castilleja (CA) Hawken (OH) Metairie Park Country Day (LA) St. Johnsbury Academy (VT) The Lovett School (AL) Riverdale (NY) The Taft School (CT) Seattle Academy (WA) Thacher (CA) Washington International (DC) University School of Nashville (TN) 2015 2016 2018 Emma Willard (NY) College Prep - BlendEd (CA) Deerfield Academy (MA) McDonogh (MD) Cate School (CA) John Burroughs School (MO) Parish Episcopal (TX) The Roeper School (MI) St. Andrew’s Episcopal (MD) Wildwood School (CA) 18 Collaborative Innovation Grant After almost 50 years of Traditional Grants (approximately 25 schools per agenda -- over time grants ranging from $25,000- $100,000) the Foundation began the Educational Leadership Grant Program ten years ago ($250,000 grants to a handful of schools. In April, 2017, the Foundation gave one single $2 million grant to the Mastery Transcript Consortium. We’d solicited larger, multi- school (certain parameters) partnerships. We had 100 inquiries, 20 semi-finalists and 3 finalist proposals. We *may* do this again. 19 Of all the prejudices of pundits, presentism is the strongest. It is the assumption that what is happening now is going to keep on happening, without anything happening to stop it. If the West has broken down the Berlin Wall and McDonald’s opens in St. Petersburg, then history is over and Thomas Friedman is content. If, by a margin so small that in a voice vote you would have no idea who won, Brexit happens; or if, by a trick of an antique electoral system designed to give country people more power than city people, a Donald Trump is elected, then pluralist constitutional democracy is finished. The liberal millennium was upon us as the year 2000 dawned; fifteen years later, the autocratic apocalypse is at hand. Thomas Friedman is concerned. -- Adam Gopnik, The New Yorker, March 20, 2017 20 Dear L+D, Every time my friend wants to go out for Professional Development, we always end up in some generic, soul-sucking establishment, serving watered-down PowerPoint brewed by textbook-touting sages on the stage. I hear you serve local, organic, craft professional development experiences… I have a friend of a friend who may be thirsty, and we were wondering where we can find some of your moonshine?

    Westtown School

    Upper School Principal West Chester, PA Westtown School, an independent, PK-12, day and boarding Quaker school in West Chester, Pennsylvania, seeks an experienced, dynamic educational leader to serve as Upper School Principal. The principal will provide strategic guidance for the Upper School, support its faculty, oversee its daily operations, and guide the division through both joys and challenges with skill, sensitivity and grace. The principal will partner with other senior administrators to develop and implement school- wide strategic priorities that further the school’s mission, and will ensure the alignment of Upper School initiatives with those priorities. The School: Westtown is a spirit-led school where students are empowered to discover their unique gifts and guiding purpose in a values-based community, while acquiring the skills and knowledge they will need to impact — and to better — the world they will inherit. Founded in 1799 by members of the Philadelphia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends, Westtown educates not just for the sake of college preparation, but for an engaged and reflective life. The school’s academic program is rigorous, and its college admissions record is impressive. At the same time, the school places a strong emphasis on reflection and mindfulness, both in weekly Meeting for Worship and in students’ everyday lives. Westtown’s beautiful 600-acre campus, located just 25 miles west of Philadelphia, encourages investigation, relaxation, and play, as well as illustrating the school’s commitment to sustainability. Quaker values and practices pervade the curriculum and culture, encouraging each community member to value diversity, to seek peace and justice, and to demonstrate respect for self and others.

  • An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England

    An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England, We, the heads of independent schools, comprising 176 schools in the New England region, stand in solidarity with our students and with the families of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The heart of our nation has been broken yet again by another mass shooting at an American school. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who died and are grieving for the loss of life that occurred. We join with our colleagues in public, private, charter, independent, and faith-based schools demanding meaningful action to keep our students safe from gun violence on campuses and beyond. Many of our students, graduates, and families have joined the effort to ensure that this issue stays at the forefront of the national dialogue. We are all inspired by the students who have raised their voices to demand change. As school leaders we give our voices to this call for action. We come together out of compassion, responsibility, and our commitment to educate our children free of fear and violence. As school leaders, we pledge to do all in our power to keep our students safe. We call upon all elected representatives - each member of Congress, the President, and all others in positions of power at the governmental and private-sector level – to take action in making schools less vulnerable to violence, including sensible regulation of fi rearms. We are adding our voices to this dialogue as a demonstration to our students of our own commitment to doing better, to making their world safer.
