a word from the president

interim president

joe hatcher

Change has been the theme for the presidential candidates of both parties in this election year. They could have visited the PA campus for an excellent example of change for the better and to see how change can be managed eff ectively and with excellent results.

In the 1990’s, I served on the PA Board and have spent little time on the campus since, ex-cept for going through the drop-off or pick-up line to deliver or retrieve my grandchildren. When I returned to the campus late this summer to assume my role as interim president, I was astonished by the complete physical transformation of the institution I knew as PA.

From two classroom buildings and a gym, PA has become a campus that feels more like a college than a school. In one summer, two separate physical plants that served diff erent purposes became a single institution devoted to educating young people. In a remark-ably short time, facilities were renovated and re-shaped to provide teachers who had long worked in cramped quarters with state-of-the art educational spaces. From a school where students from 3 to 18 had been elbow-to-elbow, PA has become a campus where Early Childhood, Lower, Middle, and Upper School students each have their own space—and yet the four entities comfortably share common spaces and interact productively. Seniors easily move to the Early Childhood classrooms to serve as senior brothers and sisters to the smaller children, but each age has wonderful classrooms designed for their particular needs—all on one campus.

PA has made great strides in a very short period of time. For the fi rst time in many years, the school has facilities that are worthy of the quality of the faculty and the academic program. There is still work to be done, but PA has made a quantum leap.

You who are recognized in this annual report for your contributions of time, your work with our students, and your fi nancial support have made these gains possible. The stu-dents of PA and all of us who work here on campus with them are grateful to you for your generosity. Yes, there is still work to be done, and we will be calling on you for additional help. We must continue to improve our programs, we must continue to grow the annual fund, and we must provide for additional capital needs. But much has been accomplished, and you can feel great pride in the “new” PA.

a year of changeThe 2007-08 school year was one of excitement,

activity, and anticipation like no other in PA history.

After two years of meeting upon meeting with FBC

representatives, city offi cials, architects, Board members,

and PA families, the school was fi nally ready to break

ground on its campus expansion project. Construction

crews, sheetrockers, and painters were welcome

additions to our little campus community as the school

year was coming to a

close.

And that’s when the

magic really began.

The Pulaski Academy Campus Master Plan was fi nalized.

2007-08 MILESTONESsummer 2007

The multi-phased Campus Master Plan was unveiled. Phase One would address campus expansion and renovation to be implemented by Summer 2008. Phase Two would identify additional renovation and campus projects for the future.Architects undertook design work for classroom renovation and other Phase One renovations.

85% of its goal for a total of $4.97 million to date.

THE MILLION DOLLAR CHALLENGE!To help PA reach its capital campaign goal and to encourage families to par-ticipate, an anonymous donor stepped forward last spring with a Million Dollar Challenge.

in the lives of PA students!

A wide range of naming and underwrit-ing opportunities are available to donors who would like to help the school, leave a legacy, and help earn the $1,000,000 Challenge all at the same time! From naming a building to underwriting a classroom, every gift will be matched by the challenge. For more information on naming and underwriting opportunities, contact Jeanie Berna, Head of Advance-ment, at 604-1938 or via email at jeanie.berna@pulaskiacademy.org.

NAMING OPPORTUNITIES STILL ABOUND!

DOUBLE CHALLENGE ANNOUNCED!An anonymous donor inspired by the $1,000,000 Capital Campaign Challenge has issued a second $100,000 Challenge for the Name a Seat Campaign! Make a gift or pledge of $250, $500, or $1000, and your gift will be matched by BOTH challenges for a total impact of $750, $1500 or $3000, respectively.

PA faculty members are experts in their fi eld. Many hold advanced

degrees and have worlds of knowledge and experience to off er young

minds. At the heart of the PA experience is the relationship that the faculty

and students share: one built on mutual respect and genuine concern.

Teachers take time to get to know each student as an individual, and PA

students thrive in this challenging yet nurturing environment. The faculty

at PA is dedicated to inspiring students with a lifelong desire to learn and

to reach their fullest potential, both in college and in life.

meyer endowed award recipi-

ents of years past

for teaching excellence

Each year, two outstanding PA teachers are the recipients of The Meyer Endowed Award for Teaching Excellence. These pres-tigious awards have come about because of a generous endowment established by alumni parents Chuck and Carole Meyer in honor of their daughters, Marley (Class of 1987) and Carissa (Class of 1990), whose lives were enriched as a result of their educational experiences at PA. Recipients of the 2008 Meyer Endowed Awards were Candy Anderson and Megan Abbott.

YEARS OF SERVICE AWARDSPulaski Academy’s faculty and staff are passionate about their work and their school. These awards serve as a testament to their dedication and commitment to PA. The following individuals have reached special milestones in their careers.

The group devoted three years to raising funds and aware-ness for the crisis in the Darfur region. Under the leadership of 2007-08 co-presidents Matt Swaim and Leslie Golden, the group brought the Darfur campaign to a close. The $6,000 raised will go to the International Rescue Committee, which helps to feed and house refugees from war-torn areas.

The success of many of the programs and activities at PA is a direct result

of the willingness of parents, alumni, and friends to give so much of their

time and energy. During the 2007-08 academic year, virtually every area of

the school benefi ted from the hard work and dedication of volunteers who

donated more than 47,000 hours of their time.

No matter the activity or program, PA volunteers can be found rolling up their sleeves, leading, organizing, decorat-ing, cleaning, serving, selling, and even working the concession stand at Bruin sporting events!

FACULTY/STAFF GIVINGPulaski Academy is truly blessed to have a dedicated group of faculty and staff , willing to give freely of their time and talents, whether in the classroom, on the playground, or in an admin-istrative offi ce. Even more amazing is how their giving spirits transcend their job duties, prompting them to support PA’s future on a completely diff erent level: with their paychecks. Pulaski Academy thanks its many faculty and staff members who took their generosity one step further and contributed to the 2007-08 Annual Fund.
