Giving to St. Francis .....................................................40
Alumni, parents, grandparents,
trustees, friends, faculty and staff:
It is with a joyful heart that I express my gratitude for all
that you have provided St. Francis Episcopal Day School.
You continue to be a crucial part of providing an extraordinary educational experience for our students and upholding
the mission of this fine institution.
Our community provided more than $756,000 in annual
fund contributions, and $974,231 in overall giving during
the 2007-2008 school year. Through your gifts, St. Francis
continues to live up to its well-established traditions of
academic excellence and providing an environment that helps
to raise students who are people for others.
Our students’ achievements are rooted in the sustained
support and involvement of the St. Francis community.
Your contributions to annual fund and capital gifts have
helped to make these opportunities possible.
Among the many areas of our school that have benefited
from your giving dollars this year, the following are just
a few examples of your gifts at work. Thanks to your
generous gifts, we were able to:
• Provide additional classroom supplies and support
• Send more teachers to valuable, pertinent training
• Enhance security to safeguard our campus and students
• Present students with the opportunity to enter and
participate in national academic competitions
• Give the lasting gift of education through student
scholarships
Mission Statement
In the Anglican tradition, St. Francis
Episcopal Day School challenges and
motivates students in an academically
and spiritually stimulating environment to become imaginative, critical
thinkers, and people for others.
• Enrich student learning through the renovation of
the Crum Library

and prominent community members. The makeup of the Board is

is required to be Church Communicants (members in good standing), as well as 51% of the Board
must have at least one child at the
day school at the time of their first
election. Anyone with understanding of Board governance is
eligible for nomination and may
volunteer for the role. Members
are elected to a three year term,
renewable up to three terms (nine
years), and act solely in the best
interest of the school.
to ensure that the school’s operations are relevant and uphold the
mission of the St. Francis community. In this role, members review
and maintain bylaws, hire and evaluate the Head of School, and establish policies and plans consistent
with the mission.
They are the financial keepers of
the day school, charged with the
fiduciary responsibility of providing financial direction, security
and long-term strategy. Yet, above
all, it is the board’s responsibility
These outstanding volunteers are
the pillars of our community and
the foundation of our success.
Thank you all for your tremendous donation of time and energy
over the past year.

Annual
Fund
2007-2008
I wish to express heartfelt thanks to the hundreds of Annual Fund donors
listed on the following pages. This thanks is offered on behalf of the 800+
students attending St. Francis Episcopal Day School. We all know that
St. Francis is a special and blessed place that nurtures young people,
ignites creative minds, and builds character and poise. No single fundraising effort supports our mission better than the Annual Fund.
Simply put, Annual Fund is about teaching and learning. The parents,
grandparents, alumni, alumni parents, faculty, and friends of the school
who give each and every year are the pillars of our campaign. The school
counts on you to help bridge the gap between tuition revenue and the
Bridget Hennessey actual cost of educating our students the St. Francis way. Thanks to your
Head of Institutional active partnership, our students receive a well-rounded and exciting
Advancement education from top-notch teachers.
I was once told that tuition is the apple, and Annual Fund is the polish
on the apple. Thank you for making our program shine!
Pl e a s e k n ow t h a t we have made ever y effor t to ensure the accuracy of this repor t
a n d t h a t a l l d o n o rs have been represented correctly. We apologiz e for any overs i g h t s a n d a s k yo u to please contact our office regarding corrections or concer ns.

Inspired teaching is often what makes the difference between a child merely
attending school and one who truly enjoys learning. It is in this spirit that
St. Francis Episcopal Day School established the Sarah W. Woolrich Fund for
Faculty — designed to enhance the educational experience of our students by
first expanding the horizons of our teachers.
Aetna Foundation, Inc.
Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Crystal
This fund is dedicated to our school’s first principal, Sarah (“Sally” as she is
known to many) Woolrich. Mrs. Woolrich made a life of teaching, guiding
and inspiring the futures of her St. Francis students. It was her belief that
there is a moment for each child when the “light bulb goes on.” Finding this
for her students was Sally Woolrich’s mission. She encouraged her teachers to
bring elements from the world into their classrooms in order to reach into the
imaginations of our children and make learning come to life.
In keeping with this philosophy, the Sarah W. Woolrich Fund for Faculty
provides funding to provide special learning opportunities for faculty and
staff members of the school. Each year awards are made from the Woolrich
Fund to underwrite unique professional development opportunities ranging
from teaching skills and curriculum development to travels abroad. In fact,
with the support of the St. Francis community, more than 37 teachers have
benefited from Woolrich Fund awards — bringing back invaluable skills and
experiences for our children. Students hear first-hand accounts of Spanish
life, retrace the steps of Christ in the Holy Land, and are exposed to cutting
edge technology as a result of the Woolrich Fund.

My experience to travel to Israel was one I will never
forget. I want to thank each one of you for making my
trip possible and allowing me to walk where Jesus ministered. As I look back on my experience, I am excited to
share with the kids the places I was able to see and the
lessons I learned – from the boat ride on the Sea of Galilee,
reading Matthew 5 on the Mount of Beatitudes, walking
down Massada, floating in the Dead Sea, Qumran, praying at the Garden of Gethsemane, reading Psalm 23 at
the Shepherds field, crossing the border to Jordan, walking around Petra, and so many more experiences I could
write about. When I read the Bible I can now say I have
been in some of those places and share that experience
with others. I thank you again for allowing me to have a
life changing experience and pray the kids will learn from
my journey!

There is no greater gift to give a child than
a passion for reading. For it is within the
pages of a book that the imagination of a
child comes to life. It is where the impossible becomes plausible and where dreams
take flight. In reading, children begin
to learn about and interact with a world
outside their own and gain an inherent
awareness of others.
To create excitement around reading is to
create of lifelong passion for knowledge. It
is for this reason that the Library Club was
created, and remains, a trademark of the St.
Francis Episcopal Day School program.

Gifts made to Library Club enable the St.
Francis Crum Library to purchase ageappropriate books and technology to enrich
the library’s existing collection. Materials
purchased with Library Club contributions
have a special nameplate affixed on the inside cover indicating the name of the honoree. When a student is honored, he or she
is invited to have the book read aloud to
his/her class, or to be the first to check the
book out of the library. These special books
then become a permanent part of the Crum
Library collection.
There are few people unable to name a book
that has had a lasting impression on their life
and success. The opportunity to share this
gift makes Library Club donations an especially popular gift for children’s birthdays,
special occasions or as acknowledgement of
teachers and staff.

St. Francis Episcopal Day School
would like to thank the Class of 2008
for the generous gift of two
custom podiums for the
Fine Arts Center!
Good evening and welcome to the graduation ceremony of the
greatest class ever to walk the halls of St. Francis. As one of
my best friends told me recently, “Don’t cry because it’s ended;
laugh because it happened.” I’m Calhan Hale, and it has been
my absolute privilege to be a part of the class of 2008. Tonight,
let us not be sad about the separation of such an amazing class,
but let us celebrate our many accomplishments. While we have
had many individual achievements in the world of PSIA, region choir, athletics, visual arts, and academics, our class is
defined by its unity.
Our class is a very accomplished one. We have put on two
amazing plays: Jailhouse Rock in fourth grade and The Best
Christmas Pageant Ever in eighth grade. We also put on one
phenomenal musical called Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, which, I must say, -- to beat Mrs. Chisholm to
the chase -- was the best musical St. Francis has ever had. We
survived Hurricane Rita and were people for others by serving as a refuge for those escaping the hardships of Hurricane
Katrina. We helped raise over $25,000 to aid the victims of
the 2005 tsunami. We painted a 6-foot-tall fiberglass mustang
and won third place in the Rodeo Contest. We were a part of
the Varsity Choir that won state five years in a row. There are
many more things our grade has done, but we all know what
an outstanding group of people this has been, and will be in
the future.
Out of our many accomplishments, Joseph and the Amazing
Technicolor Dreamcoat was definitely a standout. The opening
night was truly one to remember. When we broke from circle
backstage, Mr. Linhart instructed us to be silent and to take
our places. Being backstage on opening night was a very different feeling from anything I’ve ever experienced before. The cast
and crew were all one big family. Many of us were hugging and
saying how much we loved each other. It was an overwhelming
feeling because we were so excited. Yet, we all knew there was
only so much time to say all these things before the moment we
had all been waiting for arrived. That night, I tried to describe
to my parents how we felt backstage before the curtains opened.
The feeling, I said, was similar to how I think I’ll feel just before I die and go to heaven. That’s just how I think it will be:
overwhelmed by the desire to say how much we love one another
before it’s too late, and yet, so excited for what is to come.
I didn’t really think how graduation might relate to these feelings. Graduation is what we’ve all been working toward during our years at St. Francis. Now that it’s here, we realize how
hard we’ve worked, how much we have loved, and how much
we have been loved. As the curtain opens on the next chapter
for all of us, I think that we, the class of 2008, will take this
love and these experiences with us into the next opening night
of our lives: high school.
A thread of memories has woven each of our childhoods together, and this same strand of recollections is what will tie
our futures together as well. As we go our separate ways, we
will still be connected by these memories that have wound us so
closely together in our years at St. Francis.
Class of 2008, it is opening night once again. I hope we can go
out and embrace our futures with great enthusiasm, but never
forget where we came from. Thank you, St. Francis and class
of 2008.

Prayer attributed to St. Francis of Assisi
Lord, make us instruments of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let us sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is discord, union;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
Grant that we may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Courage
