Message from the HEAD OF DEVELOPMENT

Assuming the role of Head of Development last May has been a deeply rewarding experience, both personally and professionally. As a longtime parent in the AIS community, it has been an honor to work with so many faithful volunteers that care so much about AIS and its wonderful community—Thank You!

KENDYL MOSS

The 2014-2015 Annual Fund push for 100% parent participation showed great success reaching 75%—a special congratulation to Grade 4 for reaching 100%. Growth in leadership giving through The 1984 Club increased, including new members—many of whom were new parents to the school. Gifts to The 1984 Club traditionally make up 84% of the total raised in the Annual Fund.

Head of Development

Additionally, through increased community participation in the Georgia Financial Aid Tax Credit Program, AIS awarded $452,202 in scholarships in 2015 for the school’s financial aid program. Since 2008, we’ve been able to raise over $2 million for student scholarships at AIS and we look forward to continuing this program for our students. We are so appreciative and grateful for all the parents, faculty, staff, trustees, alumni, parents of alumni, grandparents, friends and organizations who supported AIS in the 2014-15 school year. Without the amazing generosity of our community, we could not have raised $862,437 through the Annual Fund at Atlanta International School. Please know that your gift makes a difference at AIS every day. We are thankful for your participation and couldn’t carry on without your support. We are AIS!

AIS ANNUAL GIVING / AIS ANNUAL FUND Atlanta International School / 2014-2015 Annual Fund

All contributions raised through the Annual Fund go directly into the operating budget to help fill the gap between tuition revenue and our operating expenses. Contributions help underwrite the expenses for all areas of the school including teacher training, technology upgrades, financial aid scholarships and improvements to the classrooms. To accomplish our goals, it takes the support of the entire community: parents, trustees, faculty and staff, alumni, alumni parents, grandparents and friends. In 2014-2015, AIS raised over $860,000 through the Annual Fund. Annual Fund Participation The AIS community continued on its mission to reach 100% parent participation in the 2014-2015 Annual Fund--we would like to congratulate Grade 4 on reaching the 100% goal! 3K came in a close second at 90%. This year, across all grades, 75% of our parents participated with a contribution to the Annual Fund. Faculty and Staff and the Board of Trustees held their long-standing tradition of 100% participation. The 1984 Club In 2014-2015, there were 196 members in our leadership giving society, The 1984 Club, named in honor of the year the school as founded. Their gifts raised 84% of the Annual Fund total!

FINANCIAL AID TAX CREDIT

Through the Financial Aid Tax Credit Program, eligible taxpayers may redirect a portion of their Georgia tax liability to support financial aid for the school of their choice. Since 2008, the Financial Aid Tax Credit Program has provided AIS with over $2 million in financial aid funding. These funds compose a significant portion of the AIS financial aid budget, supporting students who dually qualify under the state guidelines and the school’s need-based qualifications. By redirecting your taxes (up to $2,500 filing jointly or $1,000 filing single), you will receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit at the state level against your Georgia income tax liability while providing scholarship assistance to incoming AIS students who are currently enrolled in public schools. Individuals who receive pass-through income, such as a partnership in an LLC, can contribute up to $10,000 and C-corporations and trusts with a tax liability can redirect up to 75% of their state tax liability. In 2015, the state of Georgia set aside $58 million in tax credits and the AIS community was able to apply over $450,000 towards student scholarships through this program. Thank you to the following individuals who participated in 2014-15 to benefit Atlanta International School:

SPRING BENEFIT 2015

Passport to

MEXICO

On April 18, 2015 Atlanta International School hosted the 29th Annual Spring Benefit, Passport to Mexico. Guests were transported from cityscapes to mountaintops to the Riviera Maya of Mexico as we as explored the cultural richness and diversity of this wonderful country. Attendees were welcomed by the Pepe Lopez Mariachi Band, entertained by Aztec dancers from Danza Azteca San Jose, and wowed by a live wine painting demonstration from artist David Quiroz. Primary school students performed a musical number led by Karen Peters as well as vibrant traditional Mexican Hat Dance led by Rocio Fabbrini. A very special thank you to alumnus Saurav Bhandary ’12 for sharing his journey from a small village in Nepal to AIS graduate. Such a memorable evening! This year’s Spring Benefit raised more than $500,000 for Atlanta International School—The Stand & Pledge campaign for financial aid, which took place after the live auction, raised an unbelievable $189,213. This amazing night in Mexico was all made possible by the dedicated Spring Benefit Council. We would like to thank Myrna Antar, Alison Newton Bartnick, Scott Britton, Linda Bruner, Lorraine Charman, Tosha Hays, Rakhee Parikh, Rupal Romero, Julie Schoen and Morgan Stewart. The Spring Benefit began in the late 1980s to support AIS’s mission of providing the increasingly global Atlanta community with an outstanding independent school. All proceeds from the Benefit contribute towards financial aid scholarships, faculty development programs and continued preservation of the historic campus buildings AIS ANNUAL REPORT / 2014-2015

Message from the PARENT ORGANIZATION PRESIDENT

I was recently asked a question by a prospective parent during WorldFest, our Parent Organization’s largest annual event—“Why choose AIS?” Rather than

explaining the International Baccalaureate curriculum or raving about all the wonderfully committed teachers who have shaped my children’s lives, I took a moment to really think about the question. While these factors are important qualities for a school to have, there must be other influences that allow a community to thrive.

NICCI DOZIER President

Surrounded by all the unique smells and the colorful expressions of cultural heritage and diversity of WorldFest, the answer became clear. It was easy to articulate why this rich fabric made of so many distinctive threads is a tapestry any family would want to weave itself into. I then asked the prospective parent to take a full, slow spin around at that very moment— there were 20 different countries represented, promoting their native foods and wares, but the most important component of this festival was that it was entirely put on, from start to finish, by parent volunteers. Our headmaster, Kevin Glass, once commented that we have the “Cadillac” of Parent Organizations. This is true because of our parent volunteers who can always be counted on to lend their time and talents to any cause—various cultural clubs, teacher appreciation luncheons, or parent presentations that bring unique world perspectives directly into the classroom. From our signature events like WorldFest and the German Christmas Market, to the smaller events like a parent coffee or a Parent Program book club, these functions ensure that we, as a community, stay connected. One of the most important roles of the Parent Organization is continually finding ways to invite families to become engaged in the school. Parent involvement is crucial not only for our children, but for us as well. As we guide our children through this sometimes-messy maze of life, this task is made easier with the support of our fellow parents. Studies consistently show that students whose parents are involved with their educational environment perform better academically. They are more likely to go on to higher education and possess higher self-awareness and confidence. Schools with dedicated parent involvement are vibrant places where teachers and staff feel supported, and students benefit from the attention of so many caring adults. Our school embraces the age-old African proverb “It takes village to raise a child.” I am grateful to be part of the AIS village and privileged to support the Parent Organization.

Our Mission To meet the challenges and opportunities of our interdependent, fast-changing world as responsible citizens, young people require flexible intellectual competence, self-discipline, and a global outlook. To achieve these goals, they need rigorous academic preparation and a passion to become the best they can be. To thrive in and contribute to this world, they must have a solid sense of self and respect for others—as individuals, as members of a group, as citizens of their nations, and as members of the global community. Extraordinary individuals will be called upon to shape the 21st century. The mission of Atlanta International School (AIS) is to develop such individuals. To fulfill this mission, AIS commits itself to the following goals: – to sustain and grow the exemplary level of teaching and learning that has earned it a world wide reputation for excellent standards in international and multilingual education within the framework of the International Baccalaureate; – to develop each child fully by helping each one to live our core values: the joy of learning and purposeful effort as well as mutual respect and understanding in a diverse setting; – to maintain an optimal size and composition of faculty and students to maximize the opportunities for learning and shared understanding that are necessary for a healthy community; – to help shape and improve local and global communities through the committed participation of its multilingual students, alumni, parents, faculty, and staff.

Our Core Values What We Believe Is Fundamentally Important We believe that encouraging each student to discover the intrinsic joy of learning and purposeful effort will help each one to set and achieve high academic standards. Furthermore, we believe it is vital to nurture mutual respect and understanding among all members of our community. Together we cultivate a spirited sense of hope in human potential. We believe the diversity of our community provides an extraordinary opportunity to enable our students to communicate, create, and collaborate in order to build a peaceful future. The joy of learning and purposeful effort We want our students to experience joy in their intellectual, physical,social, and emotional development. At AIS we will create a safe, stimulating educational environment, promoting the wonder and curiosity that motivate a student to explore learning in and beyond the classroom throughout life. We believe that achievement derives from sustained, purposeful effort and that our potential is best developed by learning to think critically, debate confidently, and push our limits. Ours is a community that nurtures and celebrates disciplined and myriad intelligences, and we approach teaching with the expectation that every student will be successful. Mutual respect and understanding in a diverse community We believe that every human being is valuable and deserves respect. We further believe that respect springs from understanding and that the best way to understand others is by learning to see the world from other points of view. Since each language reflects the values, history, and way of thinking of those who use it, learning another language is a particularly effective means of understanding and respecting others. We believe that a cohesive community of students, faculty, staff, and parents from many backgrounds—socio-economic, ethnic, racial, linguistic, national, and religious—provides an ideal setting for the development of respect and understanding and helps prepare students to thrive in a diverse, interdependent world.

AIS Non-Discrimination Statement Atlanta International School practices a full non-discriminatory policy in all school-administered programs and will not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, national and ethnic origin, age, disability, religion, sexual orientation or gender preference in all of its admissions, educational and employment policies, programs, and practices.
