The Year of the Griffin
Annual Report 2011 - 2012
From the Head of School Dear Friends, The Year of the Griffin was significant and momentous. A year of industrious, meaningful and successful endeavors in the classroom, on the athletic field, in the cottages, chapel, and through community service was capped off by exciting graduation day exercises held for the Class of 2012 on June 2. Various reports within these pages will speak of a school vibrantly living into its historic mission and seeking new forms within which our program and the people it Head of School Ned Sherrill with serves will thrive for years to come. his wife Lizette and their dogs Cetti and Griffin
We started the past year with the dedication of a bronze Griffin statue that now handsomely adorns the foot of Chapel Lane. The strength and majesty of this new symbol, one rising out of the experiences of a current generation of boys and their approach to the world, literally seems to defend and promote the very purpose of CFS that is also so stately and iconically represented by the Chapel on the hill above. Yet, as much as these two symbols give expression to things we want all who gather here to pursue and embody, it is the people who have learned to incorporate those values in their own faithful living that create the difference between ideas that slip away and those that take hold. Thank you for helping make ours endure. There are so many people to thank, but let me single out one here, since I am writing about the Year of the Griffin. J. Tyler Griffin believed in the vision of CFS. A former director and board chair, Ty did not simply make that belief a matter of prayerful reflection. He sought to bring a good idea to life and devoted significant energy, time, talent and treasure to see that happen. Marvelous! He is to us a true Griffin in every sense of the word his name and life embodies. We also celebrated his life and its example in a simple, elegant September ceremony, and you will read more about that in these pages, but I make mention of it here since the year was so well supported by that same spirit he held for CFS and one which so many others have, in their way, picked up and carried with him. No vision, mission or plan comes to fruition without the conviction and support of people who care. Simply put, we are here because you have decided to partner with us helping make the idea of Church Farm School a living reality. The boys we serve continue to flourish within these walls and beyond. Our alumni body testifies to that great gift of a CFS education. Do take some time to take in what we want to share with you in this report and celebrate with us the good work we are doing together. With sincere and abiding gratitude,
The Reverend Edmund K. Sherrill II Head of School

This past August my wife and I had the pleasure of visiting the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. It was a beautiful, clear day, and the freshman class of “zoomies,” who had been on campus for some weeks, was marching in noon formation to the mess hall for lunch. The sight of these dedicated, hardworking young people taking up the physical and intellectual challenge Mark Carroll and his wife Joanne of a great service academy certainly toured the Air Force Academy in filled us with pride. That sight also Colorado Springs during a westgot me to thinking—with pride as ern visit made this summer. In the background is the iconic Air well—about the achievements of the Force Cadet Chapel. young men who leave our CFS community upon graduation, and the challenges that they embrace. Church Farm School is a college preparatory school. Our mission is making students ready for the rigors of higher education. And in this we succeed quite well—most members of the 2011 and 2012 classes went on to college. But equally important is another goal—not “just” to see our students go on to college, but to give our young men from disadvantaged backgrounds the leg up they need to go on to the best college to which their talents entitle them. In this we also succeed quite well. In recent years, we have seen one of our graduates, who came from a program for “at-risk” students, go on to MIT. Another, from very straitened economic circumstances, is now at Cornell. Swarthmore’s 2010 Class Speaker was one of our graduates. These young men, and their dozens of graduating classmates over the last few years, have been able to attend the colleges and universities of their choice because they worked hard—and because they had the opportunity to go to Church Farm School. And who gave them that opportunity? Many people did—their families and friends, to be sure. But you did as well. If you are reading this report, it is most likely that you are a supporter of the CFS mission. Your generosity, particularly as a donor to our Annual Fund campaign, leads directly to disadvantaged young men “of ability and promise” getting the higher education that will fulfill their lives and the lives of those around them. I ask you to continue to be generous with your support, and to continue to take pride in our graduates. Sincerely yours,
Mark T. Carroll P ’00 & ’01 Chairman

The Year in Review Independent School Faculty Examines How Better To Model Ethical Values To Students and To Each Other Educators at Church Farm School pledge to consistently apply shared ethical values in own lives and toward colleagues This article was reprinted with the permission of The Ethical Leadership Institute. THURSDAY APRIL 12, 2012 ROCKPORT, Maine – Faculty members at The School at Church Farm (CFS) came together last month to examine how they could more consistently model their ethical values to students and to each other to build a culture of integrity at the Pennsylvania school. CFS is in the midst of a concerted, three-year effort to instill an ethical culture in its diverse community, using the principles and ethical decision-making processes espoused by the Institute for Global Ethics (IGE). Located in Exton, near Philadelphia, CFS is a boarding and day school for 190 boys, grades 7 through 12. Members of the student body come from across the U.S. and several foreign countries. Don Proffit, IGE’s Ethical Literacy® coach who helps guide the school in the ethical decision-making process, said the dialogue session was prompted by faculty members’ concerns that, “as they continued to uncover the layers in the culture of the school, they began to realize that it was important also to uncover and understand discrepancies, perceived or real, in consistently upholding the shared core values of the school as a faculty.” Proffit points out that the school is right on track. “They’re asking the right questions about their culture and values, especially how they can communicate ethics with a fearlessness or moral courage to each other with open and honest feedback, while looking for ways to help and counsel each other.” The full-faculty session is part of the IGE on-going ethics initiative at CFS spearheaded on site by Doug Magee, faculty member and
ethics team leader. The session was led by Mr. Proffit using ‘The World Café’ methodology, originated by the World Café Community Foundation, for engaging people in conversations that matter. “The process definitely helped us to sharpen our common purpose as educators,” remarked Magee.
The Rev. Edmund K. Sherrill II (far right), welcomed representatives of the Institute for Global Ethics to CFS in December. They are (from left) Don Profitt, Institute for Global Ethics Ethical Literacy Coach; Paula Mirk, Institute for Global Ethics Director of Education; Peter Hamilton, former CFS Trustee; and Susan Johnson, Institute for Global Ethics Development Director.
According to CFS Head of School, The Rev. Edmund K. Sherrill, “The professional and personal engagement at the meeting in discussing our goals and the character by which we wish to achieve these is indispensable in the modern educational era. All of us are busy trying to accomplish noble things, and sometimes we lose sight of the forest for the trees, yet I believe we left the meeting with a renewed sense of purpose and collegiality we have not felt in a long time.”
Our Shared Values: Remarks at Wednesday Chapel By Douglas Magee Director, CFS Ethical Leadership Program
K
ing David writes in a psalm, “How good and pleasant it is to live with your brothers in unity.” As I survey the members of The Church Farm School community, we are living into King David’s vision. There is no other school quite like CFS. It is a grand experiment in faith that our Founder had a vision to build a community such as this. Students come to CFS from many different walks of life and work out what it truly means to be living in a diverse community in their time here. A couple of years ago we set out on a journey to define the culture of The Church Farm School with the help of a former board member, Peter Hamilton, and the guidance of the Institute for Global Ethics. We posed the question to students, faculty, staff, and parents, “If we were to place a banner over the main door of Greystock with three core values that would define our community, what would those values be?” After many conversations, we identified four core values that we shared as a community. Integrity, Responsibility, Respect, and Brotherhood, would become the shared values that we would commit ourselves to living into as we continue to grow together. I have often spoken with members of our community about the power that exists within our School’s mission. I believe that we represent to those who are living around us a picture of what our world has the potential to be. One might envision placing the banner hanging over the entrance of Greystock on the inside of the building. We recognize that when we leave CFS, we have the opportunity to share the values Integrity, Responsibility, Respect, and Brotherhood with those whom we will encounter throughout life’s journey. The Church Farm School offers a unique context for exploring the meaning of those values in an incredibly diverse community. Our students learn to live well together in unity with their brothers. 4
The Year in Review Talmadge O’Neill Challenge Surpasses Goals
T
Alumni participation in the Annual Fund exceeds 30% “When Talmadge O’Neill ’86 approached CFS with his stunning $60,000 Alumni Annual Fund challenge one year ago, we were determined to succeed but knew it would take tremendous effort,” reflects Lori McDermott, Director of Alumni Relations. Walt Smith, one of Talmadge’s classmates, agreed to chair the 2011-2012 Alumni Annual Fund Campaign, and the hard work began to fulfill the two-part challenge.
Talmadge O’Neill ’86
Parent Annual Giving Grows 45% in 2011-2012
Twelve months later, alumni giving rose from $43,740 to $91,300 and participation more than doubled. More than 20 Class Representatives and members of the Alumni Executive Committee used their phones, computers and face-to-face conversations to contact their classmates who then contacted others. Their efforts have re-involved 150 graduates in the School and have forever transformed alumni giving to Church Farm School. As Head of School Ned Sherrill reflected, “We are deeply grateful to Mr. O’Neill for bringing us into the forefront of independent schools in terms of alumni participation in annual giving which exceeded 30%, up from less than 15% the previous year. An even more important challenge awaits us—to never lose this astounding momentum.”
he commitment of CFS parents cannot be overstated. Some drive hours to attend Parent Association meetings; others work in the student clothes closet making sure there is enough extra clothing to meet all needs; still others prepare special presents and treats for teachers and sell gift cards to purchase special Bob Brown P’14 and Gertrude Go items identified by teachers P’14 chaired a very successful 2011and coaches. Association 2012 Parents Annual Fund. President Nadine Sidoriak, Treasurer Heather Myers and Secretary Jackie Sharp spearheaded these activities throughout the 2011-2012 school year. Additionally, a dedicated cadre helped with annual giving. Parent Annual Giving, along with alumni and external giving, is critical to CFS’s ability to provide student scholarships. Parent commitment is also important to foundations and many key donors and, as a result, parent participation at any level is deeply appreciated. In 2011-2012, parent giving increased substantially thanks to strong leadership and dedicated class representatives. Co-chairs Robert Brown P’14 and Gertrude Go P’14 led an able team including Patti McLaughlin, Maureen Martinez, Sarah Pesha, Donna Zarycranski, Shauna Elvin, Ellen Ross, Heather Myers and Jackie Sharp. In addition Ms. Ae Sim Kim chaired the international parents’ efforts from her home in Seoul, Korea.
Portrait Photo of J. Tyler Griffin Presented to CFS
F
amily members of former Board Chair, J. Tyler Griffin, attended a reception last September to honor their father and present the school with a portrait photo of Mr. Griffin to be placed in the board room that bears his name. Wendy Palmer, Peggy Kinstler, and John Griffin, along with faculty, staff, students and other board members in attendance, heard current Board Chairman, Mark Carroll, speak about how much their father “was an integral part of CFS, and that his work was truly exemplary of what is best in a democratic republic like ours that leans on fellow citizens to help cultivate future generations of leaders within and contributors to a greater and common good. Certainly, J. Tyler Griffin was one of these special people.” CFS Board Chairman, Mark Carroll and Head of School Ned Sherrill accepted a portrait photo of former Board Chairman J. Tyler Griffin from Mr. Griffin’s children (from left) John Griffin, Wendy Palmer, and Peggy Kinstler.
Former Board Chair, Sam Ballam, also spoke to the Board’s work under Ty’s leadership. He told how he had been a wonderful and generous mentor to him as well as a generous contributor to the School. Head of School, Ned Sherrill, accepted the portrait on behalf of the school community in gratitude for the over fifty years of service Mr. Griffin so selflessly offered. And everyone who knew him on the board agreed that the newly framed image of Tyler befits the warmth, humor, grace and spirit of one of the School’s true saints.

Academics
The school year is one of continued successes in progressive education.
T
he 2011-2012 school year was one of continued successes in our progressive education efforts, and an introduction to, and preparation for, the major initiatives to be undertaken in the coming school year. Focusing on faculty professional development, enhancing our Student Advising Program, and developing a new school schedule highlighted our preparatory processes this year and will continue to be our priorities during the 2012-2013 school year. The key to any successful education process is its educators. Therefore, a healthy focus must be placed on the development of teaching faculty, as well as support staff, in providing successful educational outcomes for our students. Professional development for CFS faculty reached an all-time high this year, with faculty members attending internal and external workshops, round-table discussions, student development sessions, college certification courses, and a host of other academic and technology-related learning experiences. These activities resulted in greater student academic development and output; more effective faculty collaboration and teamwork; more effective pedagogy with lesson/course/curriculum planning and delivery; and overall, a more prepared and productive faculty, which increases the success of preparation and program completion for our students.
training in the various roles of an advisor, developing meaningful activities, and working towards generally enhancing the boys’ experience in our community. This year, we also began the process of developing a new school schedule, which involves dialogue, research, and the surveying of stakeholders to derive foundational ideas. In the coming school year we will work with consultants from Independent School Management Consultants, Inc. (ISM) to develop a new school schedule that will be implemented in the 2013-2014 school year. Due to our residential nature, this project will not only restructure the timing of classes and academic offerings, but also affect the overall timing of most movement and activities in our community. Therefore, it is a significantly impacting venture, and one that all of the community’s stakeholders will be involved in. Stay tuned! It was an exciting and very successful year of learning, growth and development for students and adults alike. As we carry forward our developmental experiences from this school year to the next, we look to our entire community – students, faculty, parents, and our external partners, to assist in the ongoing development of these major projects, and making CFS an even more amazing experience for our boys, and those who care for them.
At CFS we consider our Advising Program, and therefore our faculty advisors, to be central to the ongoing direction and development of our students. Advisors are also relied on to provide good communication with parents and guardians. In an effort to be most effective and further secure the overall living and learning experience, while providing appropriate activities for our students, we have begun the restructuring of our Student Advising Program. Faculty have begun exploring and

The extraordinary mission of CFS is challenging business! ”A lot of folks think the days of miracles are past. But, as you see, this is not true. All this is God’s handiwork.” — The Rev. Dr. Charles W. Shreiner, Founder - The Church Farm School

magine a business thriving on annual revenues that barely approach 20% of annual expenses. And, imagine that business thriving for nearly a full century! Welcome to CFS and the miracle of our financial endurance! Only through the generous donation of time and money of many heroes, CFS has been able to support a self-inspired strategy of charging families next to nothing for the opportunity to attain a quality education…turning financial challenges into financial opportunity. Today, more than ever, financial realities challenge us to the core. Disciplined strategies, careful planning, and prudent stewardship will ensure our solid financial future. Some of the more important and effective initiatives accomplished and/or put in place over the past year at CFS include: • Sharing financial realities - We continue a concerted effort to increase financial transparency and understanding of CFS finance. For the third straight year, we have provided relevant school budget and financial updates and peer school data comparisons to interested community members. We continue to welcome and encourage community participation and questions in all areas of finance.
NACUBO performers for the past 10 years…including entities with endowments considerably larger than ours. • Prioritizing safety and security on campus - Never has the safety of our students and staff been a higher priority. Our Safety Committee, comprised of a wide-variety of CFS staff, meets regularly in conjunction with our insurance carrier, its safety engineers and our business insurance group consortium to proactively identify and address risks. Risk management resources, including a soon-to-be-released Emergency Manual, will encourage our “SAFETY FIRST” goals. Proactive risk management efforts have enabled CFS to reduce insurance rates. And, CFS received a safety group dividend over $21,000 as a result of declining claim rates. • Participation in a local private schools (PAISBOA) consortium for the purchase of medical and property casualty insurance contracts, utilities, and equipment/supplies has enabled CFS to obtain very competitive pricing and high levels of service.
• Producing solid investment results - Our endowment portfolio reflects incredibly generous donations over many decades and is essential to our future. As measured by one key benchmark for institutional endowments, the NACUBO (National Association of Colleges and University Business Officers) Endowment Study, CFS ranks at the head of the class in regards to short AND long-term investment results! In fact, returns for the CFS endowment rank in the top decile of

Interest in CFS remains strong as admissions applications hit a new record.
T
here is a distinct and renewed spirit of forward-thinking permeating Church Farm School these days. From the 21st century curricular initiative to the bold campus master plan being finalized, as much time is being spent envisioning the promising future as is being invested in the thriving present. In the Admissions office, we cannot but join in this spirit. Indeed, our efforts are continually focused on the year ahead; the 2011-2012 school year was spent carefully recruiting and selecting our student body for September 2012.
2013 cohort includes some notable firsts; our first student from Alaska, as well as boys from Mexico, the British Virgin Islands, and Canada. CFS can make the rare – indeed, beautiful – claim that it is a population with no majority, and by corollary no minority. It is an undeniable joy to watch the boys, so different in background, culture, and circumstance, come together and celebrate that which they share – talent, passion, and brotherhood. The troubled world could learn much from the example of unity that is CFS.
By the numbers, interest in Church Farm remains strong. Inquiries about the school grew by 3% while applications surged 6% to a record 264. Of these applicants, 95 boys were carefully selected by the School’s new admissions committee and 61 ultimately chose to enroll at CFS.
Let us not forget, in this celebration of thinking ahead, to look back. Indeed, the Founder’s mission, so eloquently and indelibly framed 93 years ago, remains relevant, vibrant, and powerful today. This year, CFS students will be the recipients of a record $3.9 million in financial aid. 90% of students will receive a grant, which on average will cover nearly 75% of their costs. There are few schools that can avow that no student was prevented from attending because of financial circumstance.
This highly competitive admissions pool is a result of diligent efforts to increase awareness of the School. In the past year, the admissions team attended or hosted more than 80 admissions related events and visits, partnering with feeder schools, placement agencies, consultants, and peers. Our ambitious travel schedule took us as far north as Connecticut, south to Virginia, and west to San Francisco, as we spread the good word about the great opportunities available at Church Farm.
The promise of CFS’s mission is imbued with personal significance in the admissions office, staffed by two alumni, Marvin Garcia and I, and a past parent, Pat Ceschan. It is equally a humble honor and great joy for us to pay forward the opportunities from which we benefitted to the CFS Griffins and families of tomorrow.
In September, our 61 newest Griffins will join 133 returning students for a full student body of 194, including 174 boarders and 20 day students. The school has grown 11%, and the boarding population by 25%, in the past five years. In an era in which many schools are shrinking or closing, CFS continues to thrive, a testament to the good work of the many good people, staff, board members, donors, parents, and students alike, noted in this report. As ever, these 194 boys make up one of the most diverse student bodies at any boarding school or independent school in the nation, if not the world. Our students come from 16 states, nine nations, and some 40 distinct cultural heritages. Our 2012-

Athletics
CFS athletic program enjoys a productive and rewarding year.
T
he Church Farm School’s fall, winter and spring athletic programs enjoyed a productive and rewarding year, one that included many team and individual accolades. Fall sports began with Coach Jason Whipple’s soccer team qualifying for Districts as the #6 seed. The Griffins lost a close match to finalist Faith Christian in the quarterfinals. Cross country, coached by Tony Wrice, had a terrific season, improving upon team performance from the previous three seasons. Franky Mills ’12 set our home course record, finished 6th at Districts, and qualified for the State championship—the first CFS distance runner to do so. The golf team, led by History Department Chair Eric Fulmer, won more than half of their matches, led by Alex Kluka ’12 and Prinn Prinyanut ’14. Prinyanut became the first CFS golfer ever to qualify for districts by shooting an 80 at Kennett Country Club. Winter came, and our wrestling team, coached by Art Smith, brought home an astonishing 10 medals from the district championships, highlighted by a first place finish for Ethan Lyons ’12. Our basketball program had another impressive run, winning another district championship, our second in a row. Coach Marc Turner and his team continued to cruise through the state tournament before falling in the quarterfinals. Junior guard Howard Sellars scored his 1,000th career point late in the season. And Tony Wrice’s indoor track and field team took another giant step forward with relay teams placing at the indoor meets. Season highlights were the Sprint Medal Relay and the 4 x 800, with both receiving gold medals against some of the top track and field high school programs in the PIAA!
I am incredibly excited as CFS joins the Bicentennial Athletic League (BAL) this fall, and I am hard at work preparing for that transition. Membership in the BAL will align CFS with 14 PIAA schools in District One of similar size and philosophy, and will provide us with more consistent scheduling, better rivalries, and more opportunities for our student-athletes, and CFS, to shine. Those interested in learning more about the BAL can visit its website at www.balsports.com. Much of this summer’s work involved preparations for the BAL, but I am also excited to build upon the CFS Captain’s Program, which was hatched this year. We will work in conjunction with other School entities (student government, cottage prefects, etc.) to be more intentional about developing leadership in our boys. An aesthetic change to our facilities will be the addition of banners to the Gym and Founder’s Pavilion, recognizing our new league peers as well as CFS athletic history. Finally, we were thrilled to induct two new members into the CFS Hall of Athletic Honor during Alumni Weekend. Lamont Williams ’92 was a stellar all-around athlete, winning the independent school state championship in 1992, where he was also named the most outstanding wrestler of the tournament. And John Kistler, who has served CFS in many capacities for the past 32 years, was inducted for his work as coach and administrator. John spent 21 of those years as Director of Athletics, where he built one of the finest coaching staffs in the area and established the values that guide our program today.
The spring season saw all three programs involved in district competition. Jeff Holton’s tennis team had one of the best seasons in recent memory, with a 9-4 record. Baseball, coached by Andrew Louden, finished with a record of 6-4, qualifying for the district tournament. Track and Field, led by Coach Tony Wrice, took 2nd place in district championship competition, landing many individual awards. Aondofa Anyam ’14 established a new CFS record in the high jump, with a leap of 6’4”, overturning Dozie Mbonu’s ’88 record of 6’3”, which had stood since 1986.

Class of 2012: College applications and acceptances were most in CFS history
M
embers of the Class of 2012 submitted more college applications than ever before: a total of 406, an average of 11.9 applications per student. Moreover, the seniors received 199 offers of admission, an average of 5.9 per student.

While the number of applications and acceptances was ground breaking, some numbers were not as favorable: I don’t ever recall a year when financial aid packages left seniors and their families with such large gaps to fill in meeting the cost of college attendance. Highly qualified international students found it difficult to gain admission to the schools of their choice if they found themselves in the position of needing considerable financial aid in order to attend. Many colleges and universities are able to admit and enroll plenty of very capable international students who don’t require financial assistance, unfortunately leaving those who do on the outside looking in. Despite these challenges, the Class of 2012 boasts some notable success stories. Doolun Anyam received early acceptance to and was fully funded by NCAA Division III Skidmore College (NY), where he will study and continue his basketball career. Dom Alston will attend Lebanon Valley College (PA) where he received a very favorable financial aid package, and Franky Mills will continue to run cross-country and track at Susquehanna University (PA), another NCAA Division III school that was very generous with its financial aid offer. Dontae Johnson has realized his long held dream of attending the selective Williamson Free School of Mechanical Trades in Media, PA. Finally, Bobby Sharp will continue his soccer career at Cabrini College in Wayne, and Jaemo Lee was accepted at several highly competitive schools, eventually choosing to attend Brandeis University.

Student Life
I can honestly say, more than ever before, that “We do this together.”
Community Service Program Energizes Students New Chaplain, Teacher, and Community Service Program Director, The Rev. John Daniels, brought enthusiasm and an entrepreneurial spirit to CFS’s already strong Community Service Program this year. As he worked to strengthen community partnerships and broaden activities, CFS students took part in a variety of excellent projects. Some spent their Saturday mornings at St. James School in North Philadelphia mentoring students and helping with grounds work around this innercity Episcopal School. Others worked regularly at Chenoa Manor, a sanctuary for abused and neglected farm animals, and at Main Line Animal Rescue, a shelter for dogs and cats. Students planted trees in Exton Park on Make a Difference Day and collected food and funds for the Chester County Food Bank. When the Malvern Retreat House staged its art show fundraiser, CFS students helped visiting artists with their exhibits. The boys also grew vegetables to feed the hungry with the St. Paul’s Church community garden and visited patients at the veterans hospital in Coatesville. Finally, students spearheaded CFS’s own 5K Race Against Hunger to raise money for people living in Chad. Looking forward, more than 30 students signed up last year to partner with the Rotary Club of Central Chester County in establishing an Interact chapter at Church Farm School to further expand community service activities.
Annual Report To Donors 2011 - 2012
Student leadership programs scaled new heights in the Cottage Curriculum this year with boys taking more responsibility for their own governance, their own values and their own recreation. The Ethical Leadership Program, for example, brought students and staff members together to identify shared values and practices, and I believe these meetings have been invaluable to the life of our community. As a result of planning with various leadership constituencies at school, the Prefects will be given more responsibilities, and, simultaneously, their level of training and effectiveness will increase. The boys will become certified in CPR, first aid, conflict resolution and peer mediation—skills all aimed at building community and safety. This year, the Prefects must commit to spending two weekends per month on campus. What have always been positions of honor are being professionalized and enhanced. Other students, team captains, Student Congress leaders, student Ambassadors, and participants in the Big Brother/Little Brother program are all being targeted to better know their roles. The Student Congress, for instance, took complete control of a couple of the School Weekends last year and designed an amazing carnival, resulting in one of the most fun weekends we have ever had. And finally, increased presence of faculty members in the cottages, along with cottage faculty members, in the evenings and over weekends has made a positive difference. Married couples staffed two cottages this year, and two other teachers were assigned to cottages every week to bridge the day and evening programs—all this in addition to other teachers being assigned to cottages on a regular basis as part of their on-duty rotation. Looking back on the past year, I can honestly say more than ever before that “We do this together.”

Shirley McKee graduated from the Ogontz School, a small, forward thinking preparatory school for girls, in 1945. That Amelia Earhart attended the same school illustrates something of the spirit of Ogontz women. Shirley then went on to Wells College in Aurora, New York where she earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry. In one of life’s interesting twists, her college roommate was the present Head of School, Ned Sherrill’s, aunt.
Returning to Philadelphia to work in medical research at the University of Pennsylvania, Shirley reconnected with longtime family friend Charles Wesley Shreiner, Jr. Charlie had attended Princeton University, then served in World War ll from 1942-1945, and finished his undergraduate degree at Temple University, where he was a star pitcher on their baseball team. Dr. Shreiner would later receive an honorary doctorate both from Temple and from PMC Colleges (now Widener University). The young couple married, and when Dr. Shreiner chose working with his father at The Church Farm School over playing professional baseball, the bride and groom moved into the rear apartment of the old Admissions Office, a home they called Sunnyacres, as it was surrounded by gardens and farmland. There they began their lifelong work at the School under the leadership of the Colonel. Dr. Shreiner became Headmaster in 1964 following his father’s death, and continued the work of leading the School community until his retirement in 1987. Mrs. Shreiner recalls raising her three children, Terry, Stacey and Alix, at a time when the School was a close-knit community, in many ways more self-contained than it is now. She never returned to the University of Pennsylvania but led a fulfilling life as a wife and mother, and also as the first lady of CFS for 23 years. She joined the former Board of ManMembers of the former Board of Managers reunited to celebrate The Griffin Award with Mrs. agers and still has many friends Shreiner. They are (front row, from left) CFS from this exceptional group, Board Member Sally Graham, Shirley Shreiner, which reached far into the comBrent Roehrs, and Anne Kellett, and (back row, munity to garner support for from left) Sanna Steigerwalt, Margaret Wolcott, CFS.

The Shreiners retired to Cape May, New Jersey, and also spent significant time in Ft. Myers, Florida. In 1998, the couple sold their beloved Cape May home and moved to Dunwoody Village, a retirement home in Newtown Square. Dr. Shreiner died in 2004, fondly remembered for his life of dedication, service and accomplishment. Mrs. Shreiner continues to live at Dunwoody, with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren nearby. She still hears from many of the boys, now men who, in the words of Bill Seymour, former Executive Director of Development, considered her a “second mother.”

Church Farm Profiles It All Started at CFS... Andrew Carrigan ’87 Award winning writer maintains a passion for new experiences and diverse cultures
A
ndy Carrigan ’87 and his classmates sport the same loud Madras blazer in their formal class picture hanging in Alumni Hall. Visitors still gravitate to that picture, so different from the others, and ask if the boys all wore the same jacket or if each had his own. Beyond the blazer, it’s necessary to use a search engine to find out about Andrew Carrigan as he doesn’t talk much about accomplishments and awards. But look for one of his TV ads and see a stunning video of Captain Morgan executing a high dive and summersault off the plank of a pirate ship. Or find a Super Bowl ad that imagines the return of Budweiser to a parched country at the repeal of Prohibition. There are also spectacular print ads for NIKE and Schwinn. Did it all start at Church Farm School? “CFS is the embodiment of diversity. The School began my lifelong love of learning, working hard, seeking out new experiences and creating stories from those experiences,” says Andy.
Andy Carrigan ’87 (right) on the set of one of his commercials.
Now a successful creative director, writer and producer living in New York City, Andy arrived on the CFS campus as a 7th grader. He quickly got over the shock of independence and the novelty of attending a “school in the middle of a cornfield” with its all-embracing diversity and came to see CFS as a microcosm of the real world. He studied hard and played some sports, while gravitating to creative writing, under the influence of teachers Ray Greenblatt and David Schoettle. Rich Lunardi, then Guidance Department Chair, recommended that Mr. Carrigan look into a small college in Chestertown, Maryland called Washington College, where he majored in American Studies and delved into varied areas including jazz and opera. When he communicated his blossoming writing interest to his former CFS English teacher, Mr. Schoettle drove to Chestertown to talk to him about what it means to be a writer! And a writer he did become, but not before embracing a range of experiences. The summer following college graduation, he purchased a journal to record his experiences, boarded a Greyhound bus for Wyoming, and took a job collecting trash and ashes on a dude ranch. Later, in Baltimore, he worked at a succession of odd jobs, all the while creating a portfolio of his work. Wanting a career in advertising led Andy to The Portfolio Center in Atlanta, the dean of advertising schools, where he met his future wife Amee. Graduating near the top his class, he began a string of jobs with small, highly respected advertising agencies. Later, working in Miami, he and Amee (an Art Director) helped launch an advertising campaign for the US debut of the MINI Cooper. Moving to New York City in 2002, Andy worked for a succession of agencies, and is currently with Anomaly NY. He has written sketch promos for the MTV Movie Awards and created campaigns for top athletes and celebrities, including Michael Jordan, Carmelo Anthony, Sarah Silverman, Britney Spears, and Russell Brand. In 2008 he directed the much-lauded 1-Second Super Bowl campaign for Miller High Life, which won a Silver Film Lion at the Cannes Advertising Festival and was featured on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Andy’s passion for telling stories and his willingness to take chances have spurred him in many directions. Interested in entertainment, he has written screenplays and recently produced a documentary short film about a community of real bearded Santa Claus’s living in Florida. He visits India every year with his wife and two daughters (the “apples of his eye”) and is developing a pilot for a drama series in Mumbai. To view Andy’s Captain Morgan commercial, scan the QR code
But, harking back to his CFS days, Andy concludes, “I continue to find inspiration and thrive in situations where I interact in different cultures. I am grateful that Church Farm School made me comfortable with diversity so many years ago.”

The Year of the Griffin From the Chairman of the Development Committee Dear Friends, On behalf of the Development Committee, I want to express our gratitude for your generous and tangible contribution to advancing the School’s mission. Your partnership with CFS really makes a difference, and the students are inspired by this extended family of supporters and cheerleaders that have invested in their future success.
Stephen Darby Chairman CFS Development Committee
Your financial support helps us equip young men to become leaders and influence their world. I invite you to consider the impact of your CFS investment in three strategic areas: youth, education and underserved communities. • Youth: CFS enjoys a unique opportunity and privilege to recognize, nurture and encourage young talent. It is exciting to admit each cohort of boys brimming with potential, make our best effort to educate, mentor and raise them, and share in their families’ special pride at graduation as we send off young men who are inspired to soar high in life and enter the world in pursuit of their dreams. • Education: A CFS education is challenging and rigorous, but it is not just about lessons in textbooks. We form a support system
for our students to excel in life as influential leaders and active citizens. The students learn that their education does not end here, but that it is a lifelong process. • Underserved Communities: We remain steadfastly committed to making this remarkable experience affordable and to boys and their families who could otherwise not hope to have access. Your generous and regular financial assistance is essential and greatly appreciated. I hope the stories, news and events contained in this year’s report engage you in an insider’s look at the deserving boys who are inspired to dream big and accomplish great things. Your financial support makes it possible for us to offer our students the resources and direction they need and deserve to achieve great things and become productive citizens. We thank you,
Steve Darby Chairman CFS Development Committee

The Year of the Griffin 2011 - 2012 Endowment
T
he CFS endowment is vital to the School’s founding mission and business model. It is designed and managed to generate revenues to support operations and scholarships. The Board and administration continue to be prudent stewards of the fund. Careful management of this diversified portfolio over the long term has delivered an average annualized rate of return of 9.3% during the last 17 years. In 2011-2012, the endowment funded 69.2% of the School’s operating expenses. This represents a 5.9% draw against the fund’s 12quarter rolling average (@12/31/10) as we strive to achieve and maintain an annual spending discipline of 5% over the long term. The Board of Directors and administration continue to carefully monitor expenses and consider new efficiencies and/or revenue opportunities to better support the mission of CFS.

2011 - 2012 Operations
In fulfillment of its mission, CFS offers an excellent, affordable education, particularly to students whose means would otherwise preclude it. The average tuition paid is $7,325, and remains one of the lowest of any private boarding school in the country. Each and every CFS family receives a substantial cost subsidy to attend the School. Families are asked to pay only a tuition they can afford, to a maximum rate that is well below 50% of the real cost. The average gross income of a CFS family who received financial aid this past fiscal year was $64,000.
Contribution Revenue (Gifts)
In 2011-2012, tuition fees provided 15.1% of CFS’ operating expenses. The balance of expenses was funded through endowment (69.2%) and fund raising (8.2%).

The Year of the Griffin The Griffin Scholars Program We salute The Church Farm School for the important work it does educating America’s future leaders. — Richard C. Weber Managing Director, DNB First Wealth Management The CFS Griffin Scholars program invites donors to sponsor one or more students, boys of “ability and promise,” who are poised to take advantage of a CFS education. According to Ned Sherrill, Head of School, “The School’s financial model is dedicated to underwriting most if not all of a deserving boy’s educational needs, and we seek to do better every year. Indeed, no qualified student should ever be turned away from Church Farm School because of an inability to pay the School’s full tuition.”
Gathering for the first Griffin Scholars luncheon held in April were John Burns ’10, Kevin Oreshko ’15, CFS Board of Directors member Matthews Burns P’10 and Donald Albritton ’17. Great conversations, wonderful food including s’mores, and games highlighted the luncheon; guests agreed that they would all look forward to the fall luncheon.
Though the program only began last January, 16 students were sponsored by the end of the school year. The boys benefited first and foremost, but Griffin sponsors and companies that contributed through the EITC program also had the pleasure of getting to know students at the spring Griffin Scholars luncheon where they met the wonderful young men whose education they help to support. Griffin Sponsorships are $6,000 for the 2012-2013 school year. Donors who would like to experience first-hand the effectiveness of their generosity are welcome to contact Suzette Baird for more information (sbaird@gocfs.net or 610.363.5383). Alumni and friends who live too far away to attend the luncheons can receive updates about the scholars they sponsor and/or visit when they are in the area.
Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) Program
Bequests and Planned Giving To make a planned gift to CFS is to leave a living legacy enabling boys in need, as I was 53 years ago, and to set them on a path leading to a life filled with meaning and purpose. — Gordon Schleicher ’62, Legacy Donor
The EITC program allows businesses to receive State tax credits (up to 90%) for making contributions to approved scholarship organizations such as Church Farm School. Federal tax deductions further reduce the cost of these gifts. Since the program’s 2003 inception, CFS has received more than a quarter of a million dollars in EITC contributions.
As The Church Farm School moves towards its centennial in 2018, it is the strength and generosity of generations of faithful friends, parents and alumni that sustain this unique enterprise. Look what a bequest can do to help change the lives of promising young men:
All of the gifts to the School provide scholarships for its students. Representatives of businesses that give $6,000 or more receive Griffin Sponsorships and attend the fall and spring Griffin Scholars luncheons as well as the spring Corporate Recognition Breakfast. The Bryn Mawr Trust Company, Burns Engineering, Inc., the Greater West Chester Chamber Education Foundation, DNB First, IMC Construction, Meridian Bank, and the Philip Rosenau Company, Inc. all provided EITC Scholarships to CFS students in fiscal year 2011-2012!
• An honor student who is the son of a disabled veteran studies hard, participates in community service, and readily expresses his gratitude to those who have made his attendance at CFS possible. • A warm and enthusiastic student from North Philadelphia with a talent for track and field sports, who is attending Susquehanna University this fall with a full scholarship. • A young orphan, who bounced around from school to school before coming to CFS and loves everything about the School, especially his science and biology classes. He seizes every opportunity and never stops trying to learn everything he can.
While most tax credits are captured on July 1 when the application process opens, millions of dollars in credits remain in the new Opportunity Scholarship Tax Credit Program (OSTC ) which also provides scholarships to Church Farm School students. Companies may submit on-line applications through the fall of 2012. Those wishing more information should contact Annual Fund Director Suzette Baird (610.363.5383 or sbaird@gocfs.net).
16
All of these boys will succeed in life. The list could be ten times as long, but the point remains: When making estate plans, please consider a bequest or planned gift to The Church Farm School. For information on tax-wise ways to make a legacy gift, please contact Suzette Baird (610.363.5383 or sbaird@gocfs.net).

Lane Collins ’58 With a doctorate in business administration from the University of Southern California and two degrees from Baylor University, Lane Collins ’58 believes that The Church Farm School instilled a sense of worth and responsibility in him and his fellow students. He lived up to those lessons, first serving in the United States Air Force and later teaching accounting at Baylor University for more than 30 years.
Greystock Society Gifts of $500 - $999
More than fifty years ago, a generous Lane and Kaye Collins at home in couple, friends of Colonel Shreiner, Waco, Texas. the School’s first Headmaster, brought Lane from his East Falls, Philadelphia neighborhood to CFS where he flourished through high school, eventually winning the Headmaster’s Watch, the School’s top graduation award. A member of a class of only six, he did everything from heading a Milk Squad to lettering in several sports and doing some coaching of the JV basketball team. Along the way he learned lessons about confidence and integrity that stayed with him throughout his life. While a student, Lane gravitated towards CFS’s outstanding math program. At the same time, he sincerely enjoyed his role as Captain of a Milk Squad where he learned the value of rising early while assuming responsibilities that went far beyond milking. To this day, the Best Milker award he won as a freshman, against the older boys, is one of his most cherished memories. After graduation, Lane attended the University of Pennsylvania for a year but sought a better fit. At age 19 he entered the highly selective and rigorous Air Force Aviation Cadet Program, where he earned his commission and navigator wings. He flew missions in Korea and Japan as well as in Thailand and South Viet Nam during the early years of the Viet Nam War. After serving eight years he left the Air Force with the rank of Captain. After the military, Lane and his wife Kaye and two sons moved to Waco, Texas, to attend Baylor University. After earning an undergraduate degree and a master’s, he moved to Los Angeles where he taught accounting while earning his doctorate at the University of Southern California. Five years later, he returned to Baylor where he taught in the business school until his retirement in 2007 as Professor Emeritus of Accounting. Today, his family, travel, Air Force reunions, and golf are among his favorite pastimes. “Looking back I have fond memories of everything at The Church Farm School, even the food,” says Dr. Collins, adding with a wink, “I must have milked 1,000 cows.”

“Church Farm School was a pivotal experience for our son.” Alex Kirwin ’02, Senior Sales Development Manager at The Wall Street Journal, exudes confidence, and his parents credit Church Farm School for the wellrounded and fulfilling life he leads today in New York City. “CFS challenges and guides young men, forcing them to stick to their tasks Alex Kirwin with his parents on a cycling trip and see them through,” in 2011 says his father, John, adding that, “When you enter the School you immediately meet well-groomed, polite and disciplined young men.” Alex’s mother, Minnie, grew up aware of Church Farm School, for her father received gift boxes (sausage and scrapple) from the farm as all donors did in those days. Her grandfather, a Coatesville attorney and an Episcopalian, likely knew the Colonel. Years later, when seeking a school for their son, the Kirwins read about a CFS open house in the Daily Local and decided to attend. Subsequently, Alex entered and flourished at CFS. An honor student, he sang in the choir, participated in the Pageant, was named Citizen of the Month, received a Union League Good Citizenship award, and was elected captain of the tennis team his senior year. When Alex entered CFS in eighth grade, he became very involved right away. And, according to his parents, these interests have continued. He worked in the School kitchen and still loves to cook. He belonged to DECA (an international association of high school marketing students), attending the national competition in Salt Lake City, and now works in advertising and marketing. He played many sports but especially enjoyed tennis and body building and still engages in these activities. And, in the early days of the CFS laptop program, he became passionate about technology, so it was no coincidence that he worked on the IBM account for Ogilvy & Mather as a young Emory University graduate. According to Alex’s parents, the diversity at CFS is wonderful. In fact, as a college student, Alex was surprised that, while his college was diverse, there was little friendship among students of different races; a stark contrast to the atmosphere at CFS! Even Alex’s sister, Caroline, was influenced by working in the CFS Summer Camp. Today, she is a volunteer math tutor with Girls Hope Boys Hope in Brooklyn. “If I had to sum up what CFS did for Alex, I would say that it helped mold him into a competent, confident, compassionate and content gentleman. And I feel that he is a better person because of the School than he would have been without CFS,” concludes Minnie.

The Year of the Griffin The Angel Fund The Janet C. Hartzell “Angel Fund” was created in memory of long-time employee and devoted servant, Janet Hartzell. Both the School and Janet’s children (CFS Director of Alumni Relations Lori McDermott, Ginny McCann and Diane Hartzell) established this fund in her honor with an initial investment of what Janet would have received in added incentive had she been able to take advantage of a retirement package being offered by the School. It is intended to help certain families bridge an existing financial gap in tuition fees should their financial circumstances change unexpectedly. Mr. & Mrs. Walter S.
