FROM THE BOA R D C HA IR
In 2013-2014, our Board of Trustees oversaw exciting progress as we worked to
achieve our 2010 Strategic Vision to:
• Invigorate Teachers and Curriculum
• Sustain Faculty and Culture
• Influence Education Quality
UCDS’ Spark Team hired a marketing and web development firm to build out our online teacher
professional development resources and grow our audience of self-directed teachers seeking to improve
their art of teaching. The team also began the investigational stage of laying the groundwork for a Master
Teacher Program.
Skillful financial stewardship provided by our Board of Trustees continues to ensure our success. The
sustained financial health of the school is the result of outstanding effort on the part of the Board’s
Finance Committee (Michelle Goldberg, Jarrad Harford, Steve Hollomon, Howard Burton, Kobi Yamada
and myself), under the direction of chair Greg Headrick, and its Investment Subcommittee (Perry Atkins,
Greg Headrick, Chris Prentice, Steve Holloman, and Alex Washburn), under the guidance of chair
Michelle Goldberg.
UCDS financial health continues to benefit from our endowment and temporarily restricted Auction
funds, as we maintain competitive teacher salaries, sustain teacher excellence through the Teacher
Education Center (TEC) and support qualified families through financial aid. The value of our
endowment increased slightly more than 12% from June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014 and ended the
period at $12.4 million. In keeping with the Board’s Endowment Investment and Spending Policy, we
were able to release 4% of the endowment’s 4-year rolling average, or $392,621.
We concluded the year with an outstanding report from our outside auditors, who expressed no
concerns regarding the school’s financial operations. This strong result is a tribute to the school’s
financial management team led by Head of School Paula Smith and includes Assistant Head of School
Melissa Chittenden, Chief Financial Officer Betty Greene, Business Manager Charles Kapner and
Learning Specialist Abby Sandberg.
We end the school year with a strong leadership team, an inspiring school culture and an engaged and
inclusive community of families. We thank you for your partnership and support of UCDS.

A MESSAG E F R OM PAU L A
Our students and teachers enjoyed a tremendous Lift this past year. Last fall,
we opened our new Engineering Design Garage, the EDGe. This new classroom
space was inspired by our innovative teachers, designed by architect Don Carlson
and built by RAFN with funds raised over several years at our auction. Now with
the ample space and new tools, our students have everything they need to take
their ideas and problem solving to a whole new level, and our Specialist teachers have new opportunities
to work together, designing projects where art, science, technology, engineering, music and research can
collide.
Over this past summer, the school was, once again, buzzing with construction activity. We completed
the second phase of the EDGe project, a Tech Deck, located on the roof of the Labyrinth building.
Science as well as Design and Technology classes now have dedicated outdoor space to set up projects
that require sunlight and exposure to the elements. While on site, RAFN also completed a new PE
classroom off the gym (with its own roll up garage door for accessibility), a new work space for our
Spark Project Team and upgraded workspace for our Parent Association. In addition, we remodeled our
Teacher Education Center, adding new bathrooms, a kitchen and several new offices.
UCDS is fortunate to have exceptional support from our parents, grandparents and alumni. Our
volunteers continue to set new records for parent engagement on so many levels in the school: events,
workshops and service to our wider Seattle community. First, I would like to thank our Board of Trustees
for their strategic leadership and stewardship. Our parent leadership also continues to be incredibly
strong. A debt of gratitude goes to our Parent Association Officers: Adrianne Keffeler, Nikki Lundin,
John Robinson, Alice Ryder, Abby Hartman, Meredith Dorrance, Katie Jordan and Adam Carroll.
In addition, our Annual Campaign Chairs, David Brannon-Cirone and John Cirone and Alice and
Jim Ryder, were able to set a new Annual Campaign record for our school with 99% of our families
participating, and our Auction Chairs, Nikki Lundin and Cecilia Whatley, filled a new, expanded venue
to host our UCDS Auction–ART ON THE EDGe. To round out a year of incredible giving, our families
turned out in record numbers to build our community outside the school through our UCDServes
events: DigIt! Day and SewIt!
Thank you for your enduring support of UCDS!

Peggy Rinne
BOARD SERVICE 2008-2014
We are extremely grateful to Peggy Rinne for her Board and community leadership. Peggy
joined the Board after stepping into leadership roles in both of our previous strategic
fundraising campaigns. It was an extraordinary period in the life of the school, two ten million
dollar campaigns in a decade. Peggy and her husband, Bob, Co-Chaired the UCDS Forever
Endowment Campaign. Her passion for education at UCDS made her a visible ambassador
for the school, in front of the community and behind the scenes. During her six year tenure as a Trustee and throughout
our previous strategic planning process, Peggy provided grounded insight and gifted consensus building. She chaired
our Audit Committee, served as Board Secretary and was a member of our Development Committee. In each of these
efforts, Peggy inspired us to extend ourselves and to give back in ways that lift this community up, leaving it stronger
for those who follow. Peggy has given the school hundreds of hours of her precious time, all while balancing her civic
engagement outside of the school. Thank you, Peggy, for your extraordinary contributions, boundless generosity and
delightful sense of humor.
Eric Sanderson
BOARD SERVICE 2008-2014
From our entire community, thank you to Eric Sanderson for serving as a dynamic force of
good and a key driver in our school. By the time Eric joined the Board, he had already
Chaired the most successful Auction in the history of the school, the 2007 Surfin’ Safari
Auction. As a Co-Chair of the UCDS Forever Endowment Campaign, Eric created the
memorable tagline that helped all of us to stay on point. We built our endowment to “fund
the people” who make the biggest difference in the school—our incredible teachers and our families—by creating access
through financial aid. Eric inspired us all to be passionate advocates of our mission with his talent for articulating our
story, sense of humor and aplomb. The Development Committee has continued to rely on Eric’s leadership as we share
our Spark initiative, when we remind our community that our project is both “the right thing, and the smart thing”
for the school. Our gratitude extends to Eric’s wife, Caroline, who Co-Chaired our Endowment Campaign, for her
wonderful generosity and support, and to Caroline’s father, Marshall Blume, who provided an incredible service to the
school by managing the school’s assets following the market crash. For all of the energy, creativity and leadership Eric
has given to UCDS, while balancing his home and professional life, our sincerest thanks to the entire family.
Julie Prentice
BOARD SERVICE 2007 – 2014
We are immensely grateful to Julie Prentice, who joined the Board in 2007 while she and her
husband, Chris, Co-Chaired the UCDS Forever Endowment Campaign. Our goal to raise
our endowment up to 10 million dollars took incredible vision and focus, and Julie spent
hundreds of hours steering that campaign. It was a daunting effort, filled with highs and lows,
as the market soared and then crashed just as we launched to the public. Through all of the
phases of the campaign, Julie was able to raise the central questions and develop a strategy to move forward. As Chair
of the Board’s Development Committee, Julie inspired us to work exceptionally hard, and she set a brilliantly high bar
for all fundraising efforts to follow. Julie has contributed so generously over so many years, volunteering, leading events
and inviting prospective donors into her home. She accomplished all of this balanced with the incredible work she does
outside UCDS. During the UCDS Forever Endowment Campaign, Julie’s in-laws, Arnie and Deb Prentice, also became
the first grandparents to give a major gift to UCDS, and Chris remains a valued member of our Board’s Investment
Subcommittee. Our appreciation extends to the entire Prentice family; we owe you a huge debt of gratitude.
Caroline Probst
BOARD SERVICE 2010 – 2014
We have been so fortunate to have Caroline Probst serving at the Board level for the past four
years. With her ability to organize on many levels at once, to see the big picture and the detail
at the same time, she has pulled everyone in and given the credit to others. Caroline joined
the Board after stepping up to Chair our 2010 Click on a Dream Auction and assembling the
largest group of volunteers in our history. The funds raised during the two-year technology
initiative that spanned the 2009 and 2010 Auctions literally transformed the way that the teachers and our students
work together inside the school, ushering in a whole new phase of collaboration and innovation. As a Trustee, Caroline
served as a member of both our Development Committee and our Trustees Committee, and she generously took the
reins as Chair of our 100 Year Anniversary Celebration and planned the evening with such elegance and organizational
power. Caroline inspires everyone around her with her incredible leadership both inside the school and in the wider
community. We are deeply grateful for the positive impact Caroline has made on UCDS, and our gratitude goes also to
Caroline’s husband, Brad, for sharing her precious time with us. From all of us in this community, thank you for all you
have contributed to UCDS.

1. Blowin’ in the Wind
As the year LIFTed off, Early Elementary classrooms
soared into a study of kites: from exploring the
classroom read aloud Windblowne, by Stephen
Messner, to designing kite tails in Math Vitamin and to
investigating the history and culture of kites. Inspiration
struck us to collaborate in Science and Design and
Technology to deepen our exploration of kites.
For students, engaging in one topic through
multiple disciplines facilitates the kind of
integrated thinking crucial for navigating
today’s interconnected world. Strengthening
ties between specialty areas allows students
to access knowledge through different
pathways and gives them multi-sided tools
to solve complex problems. As Specialist
teachers at UCDS, we observe a positive
feedback loop when we collaborate with
each other, with classroom teachers and with
experts in our community. Each new window
into a topic reinforces the skills developed in
other areas, and as our students move along
an interdisciplinary thread, they realize
they’ve begun to think “like the experts.”
While they certainly haven’t covered every
content area, they have uncovered the
kind of in-depth and connected thinking
necessary to push a field forward. Here, we
describe three collaborations inspired by the
2013-2014 school-wide theme, LIFT.
In Science, we centered our investigations on wind,
an essential element for lifting kites into the sky. Since
wind is moving air, we began with the properties of air.
Through modeling and data collection experiments,
we determined that air pushes in all directions, air
takes up space, air has power, and when hot air rises
cold air rushes in to create wind. Students measured
wind speed with anemometers and implemented the
Beaufort Scale to use visual cues to estimate wind
speed. Students went on wind walks, looking for and
recording evidence of rustling leaves, flapping flags
and swaying trees. For each investigation, students
documented their findings with drawings and teachers
recorded students’ written observations. Class
discussions before and after the investigation allowed
students to share their predictions and results with
their peers.
Continued >>
Later in the year, during a blustery recess, a
Labyrinth student skipped over and remarked,
“Look at those branches, Katie! I bet it’s a four on
the Beaufort Scale today!”
By applying the concepts and discoveries learned
in class to their own experiences, our children
are developing the tools they need to explore,
understand and spark innovation in our world.
In Design and Technology we used our 12-foot
tall wind tunnel (left) to study the floating ability
of student-crafted paper designs. As the designs
LIFTed off inside the tunnel, students observed
which creations made it to the top of the vertical
tube. Students implemented the iterative design
process while also learning about gravity, drag,
surface area, air resistance, structure and mass.
Many based their original constructions on their
findings from their studies of the properties
of air in Science. Applying what they learned,
students built their own original kites. We also
had a unique opportunity to visit a professional
testing facility, the Kirsten Wind Tunnel at the
University of Washington, reinforcing the realworld application of their studies. We learned that
in addition to aircraft, the Kirsten Wind Tunnel
has tested kites, cars, cyclists, speed skaters and
even a model of the space needle! Concepts,
vocabulary and understanding about air and
wind were reinforced during Science and Design
and Technology through experiments and class
discussions.
2. Flying Over the Arctic
With Katie
3. Lifting Boundaries,
Making Forms With Ben
During the 2013-2014 school year, students in the
2-3s launched a multi-disciplinary study of seabirds
and climate change. In collaboration with local
ornithologist Dr. George Divoky, I had the opportunity
to spend part of the 2013 field season in the Arctic
helping collect population data on a colony of Black
Guillemots, an Arctic seabird. I loved bringing the
tools and techniques used in the field back to the
classroom for my students. My students got to analyze
data, simulate measuring chick weights and egg size
and explore the effects of changing pack ice on the
ability of these birds to forage for fish. Back in the
classrooms, Black Guillemots, their ecosystem and
climate change appeared in Math Vitamins and in
Writer’s Workshop fiction stories. Collaborations with
experts like Dr. Divoky add depth, authenticity and
excitement to my Science curriculum.
A 4-5 collaboration between Design and Technology
and Art moved between domains as students
asked, “What makes a print?” They used traditional
techniques such as monotype print making and
Intaglio as well as contemporary processes like vacuum
forming, 3D printing and CAD software to explore
this question. After learning how Miro made his
bronze sculptures, a student remarked on a visit to
the Seattle Art Museum, “Wow! That’s how we have
been casting our chocolates with the vacuum former
in Design and Tech class.” Students connected Design
and Tech concepts to the real world, beginning steps
towards innovation. This bridge between art and tech
helped Art Specialist Jessica Garrick and me expose
the relationship that can exist across domains and the
connectedness of subjects. Drawing from each of our
strengths, we evolved our respective understanding
of prints and print making. This collaboration made
the project more exciting and engaging for me and my
students.

On a rainy Seattle evening in March, hundreds of UCDS supporters arrived at Fremont Studios
to LIFT our community spirit at ART ON THE EDGe, our 2014 Auction. The spectacular event
raised over $500,000 with over 450 parents, teachers and students attending the festivities. The
funds raised support Teacher Excellence, Financial Aid, the summer construction of a new Tech
Deck and outfitting our EDGe classroom for UCDS students. From the creative and beautiful class
projects to the personal, inspiring video and the amazing array of live and silent items, the event was
sophisticated and fun for everyone.
At the event, fifth-graders put on a show-stopping, spoken-word performance that honored UCDS
Teachers. Here’s a snippet of what they had to say:
“Teachers are always urging you to try something new. They
can put a spin on things and get you to see the positive side.
Teachers turn work into things that kids like doing. They
encourage you. They ask, ‘Is there another way to figure it
out?’”
A million thanks to co-chairs Nikki Lundin
& Cecilia Whatley for their boundless
energy and incredible vision. A special
thank you also goes to Josh Taft & Cindy
Gantz for creating the outstanding video
and to the hundreds of volunteers who
created a beautiful evening for our school.

The Teacher Education Center (TEC) at UCDS is a branch of the school that
provides professional development opportunities for teachers to connect with
other teachers around the world. Started in honor of John Neilson in 2001,
we continue to strive toward offering access to excellence in professional
development.
In the 2013-2014 school year, the TEC published another edition of our
popular Spark educational magazine on the topic of “Fostering a Culture of
Independence.”

With a focus on learning more about
social and emotional thinking, our Experienced Teacher Cohort
spent the year studying the research on how social-emotional
thinking intersects with the development and acquisition of
academic skills. This cohort of teachers shared their findings with
the entire UCDS faculty, and they worked throughout the year
to involve everyone in the creation of a social thinking tool for
students and teachers to use in the classroom.
In addition to the publication and internal studies, the Teacher
Education Center staff worked with teachers to expand our
online professional development tools for educators around the
world. With continued funding from the UCDS Board in 2014,
the TEC group brought in a marketing and technology design
firm to expand our brand and outreach. They also helped us
create an online experiential professional development tool. This
new resource for teachers is set to launch in the winter of 2015.

UCDServes is the Parent Association’s family community
service committee.
Now in its eighth year, UCDServes organizes annual events for UCDS
families, who are interested in developing community service values in their
children and serving together with other families. The committee selects
local non-profit organizations with which to collaborate, and rather than
raising funds for these organizations, UCDServes look for projects that
require hands and energy! In 2013-2014, for the seventh consecutive year,
our families partnered on DigIt! Day with the Nature Consortium, a group
dedicated to teaching environmental lessons through the creative arts
and hands-on conservation projects. This year, families also worked with
ConKerr Cancer, a venture that provides cheerful, handmade pillowcases
to children with chronic illness. Special thanks to parent Julie McCleery
and the many families who volunteer their time and energy for these worthy
community events!

The Titcomb siblings walked the halls of UCDS for
over a decade, beginning in the late 80’s until Qxhna
graduated in 2004. Since then, all have completed
successful college careers; brothers Zahlen, Xtehn and
Vehro attended University of Chicago, Rohre went to
Dartmouth, and Qxhna is finishing up her studies at
Tufts. Zahlen is currently attending THNK School for
Creative Leadership in Amsterdam, which develops
the next generation of creative leaders in business,
entrepreneurship and innovation. When asked what he
remembers most about UCDS, Zahlen says “I remember
school being fun—each day I wanted to go to school and
always looked forward to it… I felt like I was treated as
a mature adult and not a kid. I [recently] visited UCDS
and was amazed at what was going on—the new learning
spaces are incredible.”
With an idea and a vision rooted firmly in the belief that
a successful business creates a sense of community,
the Titcombs have been making waves as leaders in the
Ultimate Frisbee scene for nearly ten years. The siblings
started Five Ultimate in their parents’ garage back in
2005. Zahlen says problem-solving and teamwork, skills
UCDS helped instill in the family, have led the company
to develop a successful line of technical and casual
apparel. Their success, coupled with a deep sense of
responsibility to the Ultimate community, has created a
loyal and committed fan base, and if you ask Zahlen, they
don’t plan to slow down anytime soon.
The business is smartly-run, sharply in tune with its
customers, and blends the quirky aesthetic of Ultimate
Frisbee with a true sense of fun. That quirkiness comes
through in the tradition of honoring “unreasonable
requests” made by customers when purchasing products
from the Five Ultimate online store. One customer boldly
asked for a dinosaur egg and the crew at Five Ultimate
made it happen; nestled in the customer’s delivery box
was a fake dinosaur egg: unreasonable request granted!
Requests can’t always be accommodated, but that type
of personalization has propelled Five Ultimate to global
leader status. The business has grown, with plans to open
a European office in Amsterdam next year.
A deep love of the sport and an appreciation for what it
represents—“high level athletics, but also sportsmanship,
trust and collaboration”—keep the Titcomb family busy
outside of work. All siblings have played or coached at a
high level, ranging from competing in the World Ultimate
Club Championships, to coaching Ultimate tactics at a
Chinese military school, to playing in the newly-formed
professional Ultimate league, which launched in April
2013. The Titcomb siblings have also cultivated a strong
family bond that has deepened over time and served
them well in business. Zahlen says, “Growing up, we split
ST E L L A DU DL E Y
M OVING O N CLASS O F 2005
our time between the USA and Italy, so we developed
a consistency of friendship with one another. We have
disagreements sometimes, but at the end of the day, we
are business partners and also best friends, so it’s easy
and fun to work through problems together.”
Five Ultimate also gives back. In addition to donating
around 10% of revenues back towards support for teams
and programs, they partner with Ultimate Peace, which
runs youth Ultimate camps in the Middle East. The
camps help instill conflict resolution tactics and mutual
respect in kids as they learn to play Ultimate from
professionals. Zahlen remembers UCDS class meetings
with Diane Chickadel as the springboard for learning
about cooperative group consensus and trust-based
learning. In Ultimate, teammates have to call and discuss
their own fouls, so teamwork and collaboration is
celebrated as a tool; the camps allow young players to
develop skills Zahlen fondly remembers as some of the
most formative of his young life.
Not only does Five Ultimate serve up successful products
that Ultimate teams love to wear, they build connections
and are creating a rich community of employees, Ultimate
players and supporters. When asked what advice he has
for young UCDS students, Zahlen said “Don’t be afraid
to take risks—no one else is going to change the world
for you; you have to do it yourself. UCDS does a great
job of engaging kids in the creative process; teachers ask
questions and create dialogue around issues. I learned
that you have to be flexible, respect individuality and
create win-win situations for yourself. A positive attitude
really helps.”

Stella Dudley appreciates the impact UCDS made on
her educational path. Having attended schools across
the Puget Sound and around the world, Stella values the
foundation she gained by attending UCDS as a young
student. She credits her strength in math and physics to
the Math Vitamin and the brainstorming and problemsolving that she learned in UCDS classrooms.
Stella brought her love of learning with her to Scotland
where she attended Gordonstoun, an esteemed school of
the royals, to complete her secondary education. Stella
took full advantage of her two years at Gordonstoun,
studying math, physics, and the arts. Upon completion in
2014 she received the prestigious Founders Award. Stella
is now venturing on to Syracuse to pursue an architecture
degree. Stella’s sister Laura is currently taking classes at
the University of Paris, where she attends a myriad of art
classes, from painting to sculpture. Their brother Donald
just finished a summer internship with Pacific Crest Realty
Advisors, focusing on real estate investment and analysis.
Stella’s father, Donald Dudley, appreciates that UCDS
gave Stella, Donald and Laura “the confidence that they
could deal with a challenge and overcome it, and to not
just memorize things but learn how to think through
problems.” Donald says, “We are all a work in progress,
but it’s about really trying to get better and grow and all of
my children are committed to that concept… a spark that
was ignited in them early at UCDS.”

for current students. Below are their responses:
DENN I S I G AWA , 2 0 0 9 : I believe UCDS really
Moving on Class of 2007 – Seniors in high school
helped me see knowledge as a reward, not just something I have
to remember. UCDS is the foundation of my curiosity. The most
important thing you can take away from UCDS is how to learn and
work with others. You can learn math, writing, reading and endless
other tidbits of information in middle school and beyond.
EMMA KI N G , 2 01 0 : Because of music class at UCDS,
I realized how much I love music, and I have a continued passion for
it. Enjoy every minute of elementary school and work hard!
CAITL I N G AY LO R D, 2 0 07 : UCDS taught
me to always be curious about the world and to think critically and
creatively about everything I do. Being able to think outside the box
and ask good questions has been useful to me—from the classroom,
