PERKINS

Annual Report2015

A Time of Great Change

The mission of Perkins is to continue a tradition of leadership and innovation in providing a range of educational programs and human services to meet family and community needs and enhance human development. Our unique strengths-based approach provides the tools for children, adolescents, adults, and families to lead full and enriched lives.

Dear Friends:

Twenty years ago management guru Peter F. Drucker outlined a number of “deadly sins” he detected in the world of business. He included among them: slaughtering tomorrow’s opportunity on the altar of yesterday and feeding problems and starving opportunities. These two “sins” he identified have more than a kernel of truth and remind us of the perils of backward thinking and the exaggerated emphasis on problem-solving rather than opportunity-seeking. What shouldn’t get overlooked in the two intervening decades is that Drucker’s pronouncements were described in a book titled Managing in A Time of Great Change (1995).

For our FY2015 Perkins Annual Report we have borrowed Drucker’s description of the world in which we lived then and now as our report’s theme. A Time of Great Change elucidates not the global analysis to which Drucker alluded but rather the experience that Perkins has had in a similar time period. The era stretches back to 1987 and proceeds forward to the present. The years coincide with those of the current administration at Perkins which concludes this year with this report.

A Time of Great Change describes Perkins from four perspectives: Quality; Community Connections; Campus/Facilities; and Growth and Progress. The report will underscore the changes that have taken place not just this past year but for the previous twenty-eight years. In so doing, we will come to a better understanding not only of the most recent year’s notable forward steps, but also the remarkable changes that have taken place over the last quarter century plus. The document is an annual report, a retrospective mini-history, and a prospective view all rolled into one, since we believe that we are still very much immersed in A Time of Great Change.

Nowhere is ongoing change more evident at Perkins than in the change in administration. We all look forward with great optimism to future successes as we continue in A Time of Great Change.

Gratefully,

Charles P. Conroy, Ed.D. Charles W. Hughes II Executive Director President

Michael W. Ames, Ph.D. Chief Executive Officer

1 2015 Perkins Annual Report

QualityAs Perkins has evolved and grown over the years, so has our commitment to high quality kept pace with that evolution. Our reputation as a premier provider of special education and treatment programs is evident in our accreditations including approval by The Joint Commission. Originally awarded in 1997 and maintained through several studies thereafter, The Joint Commission accreditation highlights the priority we place on quality and ensuring that our students and residents experience the highest standards of care. Our devoted staff is crucial in providing that top level of care.

Despite monumental growth during A Time of Great Change, our commitment to academic excellence has never wavered. From serving 34 “residential only” students a quarter century ago to nearly 100 day students and 55 residential students today, our commitment to promoting academic achievement has expanded and is stronger than ever.

In 2013, Doctor Franklin Perkins School was accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) after many years of accreditation by the Association of Independent Schools in New England (AISNE). Perkins’s year-round, comprehensive curriculum adheres to today’s rigorous Common Core requirements and includes science, math, language arts, and social studies.

2015 Perkins Annual Report 2

Our students participate in statewide testing with the impressive result that 89% at the high school level passed the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System tests. Diplomas were awarded to 14 seniors who graduated from Perkins in June, 2015. Perkins is one of a handful of private special needs schools in Massachusetts that grants high school diplomas.

Perkins’s excellence in the complex services we provide translates into the best possible learning outcomes and overall well-being for those we serve.


Community ConnectionsOne of the key elements in the transformation of Perkins during A Time of Great Change has been the increasingly large part the community plays in the work that we do and the cooperative spirit shared. Today, we connect with the community in so many ways, enjoying the synergy that comes from our two parts coming together to create a greater whole.

Day and residential students and residents see what it means to be a “good citizen” when we demonstrate that principle as an agency. Senior citizens stay fit and active through their group use of our indoor swimming pool in the Swim for Life program and at the fitness center. In 2015, those resources were enhanced with the addition of new cardiovascular fitness equipment at the fitness center, and renovations and improvements at the pool. The Manor Lawn playground is a community magnet, drawing children and families from the area and beyond to gather and play. In addition, our facilities are regularly used for public forums and group meetings.

We extend our expertise to people from the area who benefit from our knowledge and programs. Circle of Learning remains a popular social skills-building program for teens and tweens from the community who participate on weekends and during school vacation periods. Rein in a Dream therapeutic horsemanship has expanded significantly to meet community demand and collaborate with other agencies, most recently teaming up with Spring Hill Recovery in 2015. Perkins Behavioral Health provides therapeutic services to children, adults, and families from the region. Our community-based adult vocational program in Clinton is approaching 50 clients. Our Perkins Child Development Center provides early education and care programs for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers from the central Massachusetts area. The Partners in Mental Health series is another example of addressing community needs and providing community education.



Lancaster and Clinton offer substantial goodwill and kindness to Perkins, too. Seven of our current thirteen Trustees, and over two-thirds of our Ambassadors, are from Lancaster and surrounding towns. The region is also a wellspring of supporters and loyal donors.

Every year, golfers, sponsors, and raffle participants help make our annual Perkins Golf Tournament the impressive and fruitful event it has become. The same is true for our Taste of Wachusett. Participants at the “Taste” appreciate the event’s unique opportunity to see Perkins students proudly showcasing their culinary talent alongside high-end restaurant chefs.

June of 2015 offered the exceptional convergence of a grateful community and the end of an era with the Legacy Gala held to honor Dr. Charles P. Conroy. Nearly 200 people attended the evening’s festivities which successfully raised $25,000 for Perkins programs and services. It was a night to remember thanks to trustees, ambassadors, staff, neighbors, supporters, and families of students and adult residents who came out to celebrate the tenure of the agency’s sixth Executive Director. For 25 of his 28 years, Dr. Conroy was part of a three-person team that included former COO Laura Beckman and current CFO Doug Reid, who himself has served Perkins for 31 years.


Perkins Rein in a Dream began in 1988 and expanded with the construction (2003) of an indoor riding arena behind the Main Street barn. Rein in a Dream sets us apart from other agencies in serving community participants, as well as our own students and residents. In 2015, we expanded the program even further with the addition of adaptive riding equipment and mounting ramps that enabled us to offer services to riders with physical impairments, including veterans.

In 1994, we constructed the Pappas Home, a 12-bed residence for young children. It came as a result of a generous bequest from the late Anna Pappas. Subsequent renovations and a playroom addition were completed through the interest and generosity of Mrs. Pappas’ sister, Christina Miggas. Today the residence is home to adolescent residents many of whom participate in our Building Educational Success Through Transitions (BESTT) program.

Campus/Facilities The most visually stunning evidence of A Time of Great Change at Perkins is the monumental growth on the 120-acre campus in Lancaster and expansion into the town of Clinton. Perkins strategically created a campus to meet new and emerging needs while simultaneously expanding existing services. The result has been the metamorphosis of Perkins from a small residential facility to a multi-service agency, serving people at all stages of life, and people who have (or may not have) special needs.


Perkins is firmly committed to our adult residents, some of whom have lived at Perkins for many years. Even as a change in our core client population occurred, we constructed four community-based apartments for developmentally disabled adults at the four-story, 40,000 square foot Barlow Center after it was donated to Perkins in 1999. This followed the earlier construction of Friends Hall as a Life Care Program. Today Friends is home to Perkins Behavioral Health. Davis Manor was constructed in 2000, to provide a comfortable home for our elderly, developmentally disabled residents so that they could live out their lives in familiar surroundings. The 1030 Main Street house, opened in 2009, is home to three long-time residents.

Demonstrating our commitment to wellness and supporting students in engaging in healthy lifestyle choices, The Hymes Indoor Swimming Pool (1993) and Hymes Fitness Center (1998) were constructed to create an on-campus athletic complex. Together with the Prentiss Gymnasium, outdoor soccer fields, basketball courts, playground, nature path, and biking trails, our assets for physical fitness help students and residents find good mental health through good physical health.

The centerpiece of our five impressive educational buildings – the Janeway Education Center – opened in 2002. In addition to addressing the unique needs of our academically-able students, the Janeway facility is a popular community site.


Four other educational buildings: The Memorial Building; Wyman Center; Hermann Center; and Bowman A-Frame all underwent substantial renovations and modernization as the classroom facilities in the Janeway Center became the standard of excellence for all education buildings, including climate control and technological and audio-visual advances.

In addition to expanding the campus to serve our own students and residents, Perkins also expanded services and programs for children and families in the community. We opened the Perkins Child Development Center in 2008. This early education and care facility provides services to infants, toddlers, and preschoolers right up to kindergarten age. It has been at or near capacity (65 children) since it opened, and serves typically developing children from the region. Our community mental health group practice, Perkins Behavioral Health, opened in 2005, and serves families and school systems in the region.

In the last 28 years, we have purposefully created a campus that is homelike, comforting, and filled with an array of facilities that helps people of all ages develop, flourish, and succeed.


● The BESTT program provides education and employment skills training for students ages 16 to 22. The program offers valuable vocational opportunities for students to develop work experience, job expectations, and daily living skills. This year, BESTT students ran a successful Farmers’ Market, selling produce from their vegetable and flower garden, baked goods, and crafts. They also launched a “Snack Shack” in 2015, which has become a hot spot for students and staff to pick up coffee or snacks prepared by our own BESTT baristas!

Growth and ProgressThe extraordinary growth and progress that occurred at Perkins during A Time of Great Change were fueled by an overarching desire to help children, adolescents, adults, and families lead full and enriched lives. To that end, we sought opportunities to utilize our skills and resources in order to serve new groups of people in new ways. Whether optimizing existing programs or developing new methodologies and approaches, the focus of all we do is the goal of making a positive difference in the lives of the people we serve.

Following the creation of Rein in a Dream, Perkins Behavioral Health, Davis Manor, Barlow Apartments and the Perkins Child Development Center, we have continued to expand and diversify. Recent examples include:


● Perkins became the first special education school in Massachusetts to equip every student – elementary, middle, and high school – with tablet technology, boasting a 1:1 student-to-computer ratio. We have adopted the latest and most useful technologies available today, including SMART Boards in every classroom and a Wi-Fi-enriched campus.

● Our programs for adult men and women with developmental disabilities have steadily grown in recent years and the day vocational program has flourished, with nearly 50 workers on the vocational team. The “Clean Team” assists Perkins’s Facilities Department and works in a variety of vocational placements in the community. The men and women who participate in the program enjoy the independence and satisfaction of their own hard work.


In our 28 years together, we built a lot of buildings and made Perkins a great place to work for our valued employees. But most of all, we created a culture of caring. Doug Reid

Our profound thanks for the wonderful life Teddy and his friends have so richly experienced. Martha Bayles, Peter Skerry & The Fightmaster Family

You have instilled in your team and your Board the love of helping others reach their potential. That’s what makes a difference at Perkins. Dave Dunn

Charlie always lives for something greater than himself and his hard work became his labor of love. Susan C. Templeton

You are truly an innovator! Thank you for your leadership and vision these 28 years with Perkins. Dr. Michele Moran Zide

Thank You for A Time of Great Change


“No one gives what he doesn’t have” is a familiar legal axiom. For me, so much of what I now have and take with me – my experiences and memories – was given to me by Perkins because it had so much to offer and to give. Charles P. Conroy, Ed.D.Executive Director

Dad – Your 28 years of success at Perkins have been rooted in your deep love for this extraordinary place and the remarkable people it serves. Missy and Jan

With great respect, admiration, and gratitude to a mentor, friend and hero. Christopher Philbin and Jessica Aten

New York’s loss 28 years ago, but a huge win for Massachusetts! Russell E. O’Connell

Thank you, Charlie, for all you’ve done for your students, Perkins and our community. Frank and Elaine Doherty
