A LETTER FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL The concept of strategic planning can be challenging, to say the least, particularly in schools. The pace of life is so fast that as soon as you attempt to step away from the day-to-day so that you can “be strategic” and “plan,” the plan itself is out of date! Excellent schools like CSG are carried along, in part, by a mission that is compelling and relevant over time—even significant amounts of time—118 years, in the case of CSG. While much remains unchanged, so much does change—sometimes in ways that feel like evolution, sometimes in ways that feel like revolution—as we continuously strive to best serve our students. The opportunity to come together as a community to discuss what has changed and what remains the same serves as an important marker for schools that seek to proactively meet the needs of their students. Even a cursory look at the world we currently inhabit is all one needs to be assured that a school that “empowers girls to discover their distinct potential as learners and leaders” is as compelling and important now as it was in 1898 when Ms. Scott and Ms. Kelley founded CSG. CSG’s strategic plan, Inspiring Girls, Cultivating Leaders, reflects both the ideals set forth by Miss Scott and Miss Kelley and the imperatives for a world-class all-girls’ school in the 21st century. To provide an excellent educational experience for girls, we know they need not only an exceptional academic foundation, but they also need the skills and habits of heart and mind that will ensure their success in the world beyond CSG. Inspiring Girls, Cultivating Leaders does just that.
Lead, Deepen, Flourish, and Thrive Several compelling ideas emerged from eighteen months of research, surveys, focus groups, SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) analyses, and interviews. Those ideas have been captured by four overarching concepts in our strategic plan: Lead, Deepen, Flourish, and Thrive. Each of these concepts illuminates goals for an area of the school that, when achieved, will not only set CSG apart from schools in central Ohio, but will also rival excellent independent schools across the country in the ways we prepare our students for their place as leaders. CSG can and should be a national model demonstrating how girls develop the skills and dispositions to be women of influence in a global context, shaping their communities for the greater good. What an honor it is to share this plan with you now! This issue of Forte et Gratum focuses on elements of the strategic plan, highlighting ways CSG empowers girls to discover their distinct potential as learners and leaders. As we implement our plan, we will share updates and news with you on our website. We hope that you will follow our progress there, and that you will visit campus to see us fulfilling that mission in real time! Forte et Gratum!

Middle School students get a head start on writing their memoirs with author Larry Smith Who says you have to be a certain age to write your memoir? Not Larry Smith. In October, the author and creator of the Six-Word Memoirs project joined Forms VI, VII, and VIII in the Unicorn Theater to help the Middle School students tell their life stories. “I’ve rarely been in a room where people wanted to grab the mic more,” Smith said. “These girls unleashed unfettered joy in sharing these brief stories of their life (and I think having no boys around made them feel more empowered and unfiltered).” The Six-Word Memoirs project debuted under SMITH Magazine in November 2006. Since then, according to the website, nearly 1 million short stories have been shared on Six-Word Memoirs and the related SMITH Teens. Smith

The Semifinalists now have the opportunity to continue in the competition which will award 7,500 National Merit Scholarships worth about $33 million that will be offered next spring. About 34,000 Commended Students were named throughout the nation and are being recognized for their exceptional academic promise. Commended students placed among the top 5% of more than 1.6 million students who took the 2015 PSAT.
Form IX Biology Class Gets a Sneak Peek of Rina Goldberg’s The Magic Bracelet On September 22, the Form IX Biology class learned about the human side of science. The class received a special visit from parents and Bexley residents Stacy and Ari Goldberg who shared a sneak peek of their daughter Rina Goldberg’s film, “The Magic Bracelet,” before the film’s central Ohio premiere at the Drexel Theatre. The in-class discussion was not just about the film, but also about Mitochondria, a disease about which the students were learning as they explored the cell. Rina passed away from Mitochondrial Disease after her 15th birthday in 2010.
Form IX Biology with the Goldbergs and Make A Film Foundation Founder Tamika Lamison
Before that, she wrote “The Magic Bracelet.” One of Rina’s final requests was that her mother take care of her film. With the help of the Make a Film Foundation, the Goldbergs did just that. The film was adapted by Academy Award Winning screenwriter Diablo Cody and stars Bailee Madison, James Van Der Beek, J.K. Simmons, Hailee Steinfeld, and others. For the students, the visit showed that the lessons learned in the lab can have real life implications and that even at the age of 15, we all have the power to leave our mark on this world.

Significantly CSG PYC Artwork on Display at North Market
Student Athletes to Continue at College Level
Members of the PYC 4/5 Class are now exhibited artists as after having their artwork on display at North Market. The pieces, which included a variety of the fall pumpkins and gourds one might find on a trip to the popular farmer’s market, were on display in November at Market Blooms.
Congratulations to Lexie Armstrong ’17 and Miranda Donley ’17 for officially signing letters of intent to continue their athletic careers in college. The Schottenstein Alumnae Living Room living room was packed on National Signing Day, November 9, as their families, teammates, coaches, classmates and teachers celebrated their accomplishments. Lexie will play lacrosse at Butler University and Miranda will swim at North Carolina State University.
The budding artists created their “autumn bounty paintings” after a trip to the pumpkin patch this fall where they collected pumpkins and other gourds. After exploring the characteristics of each item – size, shape, color, and texture – they drew and painted their own versions for the display. The project was a lesson in observational drawing, where the students were to rely on what they really saw, rather than the idea of what a pumpkin should look like. Slowing down to look and then draw what they see is an important skill that is also used when learning to form letters and eventually putting letters together to write words. The students and their families took great pride in seeing their work exhibited in a public space!

Introducing CSG’s Strategic Plan THE NEXT YEARS AT COLUMBUS SCHOOL FOR GIRLS
2017 2018 2019 2020 2021
In October 2014, the CSG community set out to develop a strategic plan that would guide the School over the next five years. What followed was a series of meetings, discussions and research sessions that culminated in a four-part plan to move CSG forward. We are excited to share with you the steps we will take to Lead, Deepen, Flourish, and Thrive, living out our mission of empowering girls to discover their distinct potential as learners and leaders. Along the way we will share our progress.

Lead >
Deepen >
To lead is to influence. We inspire girls to grow into women of influence. Our distinct all-girl heritage provides us unique expertise in cultivating confident, poised, healthy women who are capable of flourishing in any culture, community, and economy. CSG girls develop the skills and dispositions to be women of influence in a global context, shaping their communities for the greater good.
Learning at CSG is innovative, relevant, compelling, and connected. Academic excellence is a commitment to a balance of rigor and wellness. CSG’s curriculum reflects national standards and best practices, while being mindful of our increasingly global, interconnected world. We seek to continuously examine what works and what could be improved, being nimble, responsive, thoughtful, and reflective as we better serve the needs of each student.
Flourish >
Thrive >
For over one hundred years, CSG has been a national leader in all-girls’ education. We understand that in order to continue to provide a stellar education into the twenty-second century, we must ensure that we have the resources to sustain and support our ambitious goals through enrollment, philanthropy, and sound fiscal management and forecasting. Being mindful of the impact that national and local trends in the economy have on our community, CSG will continue to look outward, being proactive, strategic and responsive, as we plan for our future.
CSG regards arts and athletics as critical components of academic excellence. Both arts and athletics help students to build core competencies such as teamwork, risk-taking, resilience, problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration, as well as self-esteem, integrity, and discipline. These skills and habits of mind are critical to both an excellent education and to the development of 21st-century citizens. CSG is committed to providing the resources to ensure that CSG students can thrive on the stage, on the field, in the pool, on the track, and on the court, as well as in the classroom and in the world beyond CSG.

I had visited Iran before, but this time I was on a mission, keen for answers to questions about my own culture that have dogged me for years. My AP Comparative Government class had prepared me with information, but I aimed to actualize my studies and penetrate the mysteries of a closed theocratic government. I hoped that this would help me understand the intricate dimensions of the lives of my family. My parents grew up in Iran. Their lives consisted of busy, six-day school weeks, saffron tea and ice cream, Friday prayers at the mosque, and morning Qur’an recitation. The Shahinfar Hospital in Mashhad, named after my great uncle, still stands today. Although my parents adopted a new lifestyle in the United States, they never abandoned the Iranian traditions that characterized their identities. Values such as “taarof,” or mannerly politeness, along with emphasis on familial unity and self-respect, have remained intact throughout my upbringing. Each time I visit, I am reminded of another part of me, a part that is connected to this authentic Iranian culture. Yet, whenever I walk down the streets, I seem foreign. I’ve lived a completely different life, where I choose what I want to wear in public, where I do not carry the burden of preserving the honor of my family. But Iranian women are bold. They are classy, confident, and valiant in their management of ambition and restriction. The typical young college student walks, chin held high with her fashionable, street style cloak and matching scarf, styling her hair so her luscious bangs freely flow from underneath as she nods her head. This could have been me… had my parents remained in Iran. In fact, later on that night I had a conversation with my cousin, who was the same age as I. She was shocked when I told her that I pray five times a day, fast during the month of Ramadan, and wear a headscarf in America. She couldn’t see why anyone would engage Islamic requirements when it wasn’t part of the law. I saw at that moment the difference between two cultures. I observe hijab because I choose to do so, while her freedom is tied to
studies and conversations within my family that he was a constraining force. And yet, Ebtekar. argued that his message to the people as a revolutionary leader and religious authority, preached that education formed a moral duty for all, encouraging women to obtain knowledge and enter the public sphere. Women in Iran today are doctors, engineers, journalists, activists, and yes, even drivers. In many ways, this is a land of contradictions, modern yet traditional, free yet controlled, enjoined yet apart. I took this experience with me to the International Affairs and Security session of the Yale Young Global Scholars program. There I encountered a young woman who asked me about my Iranian background. She wanted to know whether the 1979 Revolution truly helped improve the lives of women. I finally had an answer. Her questions stimulated my own continuing inquiry into the complexities of identity and the dimensions of my Iranian heritage. As my world gets larger, I come closer to the definition of self. As I read, write, meet new people, and immerse in intellectually stimulating discussions at school and beyond, I begin to see who I am—what makes me smile, what concerns me, what motivates me to grow. CSG has been there all along. *Note: Mina wrote a piece for the Columbus Dispatch’s First Person Forum column that further explores her decision to wear hijab. Read it in the News section of our homepage at www.columbusschoolforgirls.org. Hi, I’m Mina, and I am a senior at CSG. Outside of the classroom, I am a member of the field hockey team, co-editor-in-chief of the Upper School newspaper, Silhouette, and contributor to the Audacity literary magazine.

Kirk Campus is home to our field hockey, lacrosse, soccer, tennis, and track programs, as well as a place for girls of all ages to explore these sports through the physical education and Unicorn Sports programs. The fields, courts, and open area offer an escape from the classroom to a country-like setting, just a few miles from both main campus and downtown Columbus. Student athletes from across the city, their families, and fans are treated to games and matches in the natural surroundings. Athletes and coaches often comment that the Kirk Campus grass fields are some of the finest in Columbus. CSG’s maintenance and grounds team takes great pride in its work, and the value of Kirk Campus is displayed in the competitive teams and athletes we field each year. In an effort to maintain a tradition of athletic excellence, CSG’s Board of Trustees have approved the first phase of a multi-phase project to refurbish Kirk Campus. Under the leadership of parent volunteer Dave Presper ’P16, ’18, the school seeks to raise $500,000 in philanthropic gifts by June 30, 2017 to help fund the work. Phase I projects include: • Cleaning and refurbishing steps from Kirk House to lower fields (Completed—summer, 2016) • Repair of fences at front and rear of property (Completed— summer, 2016) • Review of campus with security consultants; exploration of safety and security enhancements (In process—autumn/winter, 2016/17) • Replace scoreboards for lower and upper fields (Planned —spring, 2017) • Resurface and renew courts at the Kieckhefer Tennis Complex (Planned—spring/summer, 2017) • Resurface the Zimmerman Track (Planned—summer, 2018) Work must be completed in time for the 2017-18 tennis season, and the 2019 spring track season. Fundraising continues for updates to tennis facility and track
The school has received a very generous seed gift of $100,000 to launch the fundraising effort, and is working to secure the remainder of the funding to complete Phase I by June 30, 2017. CSG’s Board of Trustees will finalize commitments by December Aerial View

CSG COMMENCEMENT
Congratulations, Class of 2016 On June 2, 2016, as their closest supporters watched from both sides of that infamous, red-carpeted aisle, the Class of 2016 walked to what would be their final stage, both literally and figuratively, at Columbus School for Girls. With a bouquet of red roses and the undeniable stature of strength and grace, the 53 members of CSG’s 118th graduating class received their diplomas. The ceremony was beautifully draped in tradition, yet this day was uniquely theirs: their families, their friends, and a celebration of their accomplishments. It was that ownership of the present that this year’s commencement speaker, Susan Clatworthy ’69, encouraged them to hold on to as they ventured into their futures. As Senior Vice President of the Retail Division at CHANEL, Clatworthy is responsible for enhancing synergies on global activities for the fashion giant, while overseeing Client and Business Development, Buying and Merchandising, Fashion Operations, and Visual. A Midwest native and French major in college, Clatworthy, self-admittedly, was not an obvious pick to end up in the New York City fashion industry, working for Chanel, the Ultimate House of Luxury. But, as a former CSG student, from preschool to 9th grade, she says the learned practice of listening to her own voice was stronger than the idea of what shouldn’t have been. With that, she addressed the Class of 2016 challenging them to, “Stay True to You.”
An excerpt from Susan Clatworthy ’69’s 2016 Commencement Address: “Stay True to You” “CSG is committed to authenticity—you will all continue to be shining stars if you commit to honoring yourself with authenticity. But, hold on tight! Because I can assure you that you will inevitably find yourself off course. And, at times, those moments have the power to make you question yourself. You might not know this yet, you might not feel it yet, but you are a part of this committed “never give up mentality.” Who you are has been formed by the core values of your family, your friends, and CSG. I can confidently say that the essence of who you are will always be safe if you protect it through thick and thin. So, bottom line...always be the CEO of you!”

ALUMNAE HONORS AND AWARDS
Dr. Amy Crockett ’92 Wins Esteemed 2016 McNulty Award Dr. Amy (Hairston) Crockett ’92 is the recipient of the 2016 John P. McNulty Prize. The $100,000 prize recognizes leaders who harness the innovation and excellence that characterized their career success to create replicable and sustainable models for addressing seemingly intractable problems around the world. Amy was honored for her transformative work that is drastically improving birth outcomes in South Carolina, and influencing the way healthcare is delivered across the nation. She leads an expansion of Centering Pregnancy, an innovative model of group prenatal care that leads to healthier moms and babies and has cut costs across South Carolina. When Amy discovered that the social bonds created in group prenatal care significantly improved the birth outcomes of her own patients, she decided to make it her Fellowship venture to create state-wide access to the model. A distinguished international jury, including former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, determined the recipient of the 2016 award. CSG extends a hearty congratulations to Dr. Amy Crockett!

It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Carol Scheaf Tangeman’s husband, Philip, on June 27, 2016. Our thoughts are with Carol’s family during this time.
Karen Tweedy-Holmes writes, “In April, Lou and I felt that our 30 years of marriage should be celebrated with an adventure such as we’ve never had together. We decided to go hiking in southern Utah’s incomparable Red Rock Canyons. I’ve been hiking, camping, and trail riding there on my own for 32 years and have wanted him to see some of the parts of it that I love so much and return to each year. No camping was involved on this sojourn, but much driving and many serious hikes were on my agenda. I planned every day to take advantage of the three main areas we were visiting: the Bluff and Natural Bridges area, including a side trip to Monument Valley; Capitol Reef National Park, my all-time favorite hiking destination; and the Escalante area where we stayed with friends and took a side trip to Bryce Canyon. On the day before we returned to Salt Lake and the flight home, we visited Arches National Park. Lou was especially intrigued by the many rock art sites we visited created by artists who lived in Southwest more than a millennium ago.
1958 Class Representative Needed Nancy Draudt Forrest writes, “All is well with my family. However, my dear brother, David M. Draudt, passed away on March 15, 2016.

Rex Jr., the husband of Anne McKee Rex, Robby died after a lengthy illness on February 24, 2016. He was 79. A memorial service was held on June 24, 2016 at St. Alban’s Episcopal Church in Bexley.
1959 Class Representative: Monin Lopez Dreebin Monin Lopez Dreebin writes, “In April, I returned from a wonderful tour on ancient Egypt—a journey along the Nile from Cairo and Abu Simbel. Just spectacular! My husband, Mike and I continue to enjoy skiing, him surfing, and just enjoying life. I still make miniature goodies and we both are enjoying our young two and a half year old grandson, Levi. Life is good! “This July/August was my ninth trip to Scotland and I was able to visit a number of new places. It began with a Runrig concert at Edinburgh Castle. Runrig is my favorite Scottish rock band and the motivation for several of my past trips. The trip ended with a visit to the Mull of Kintyre, featured in the song by Paul McCartney. After the concert, a friend and I rented a car and spent two and a half weeks driving around the Highlands, the beautiful Outer Hebrides and the west Argyll Coast. We searched for standing stones and circles and other Neolithic remains, tromping through sheep fields and cow pastures. We visited several museums, galleries, and distilleries and enjoyed a lot of that excellent single malt whisky. Mostly, we enjoyed soaking up the bleak beauty of the landscape on the islands of Lewis, Harris, North and South Uist, and Benbecula in the Outer Hebrides and the calm quiet of the small towns and coastal villages. The ever present Scottish rain followed us around, but that was even enjoyable to a point. We don’t get much of that in California these days. Finally, the Scots are terrific, friendly people and I can’t wait to go back to continue exploring.”

“In June, I flew to Rapid City, South Dakota and drove south to the Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary, a magical 13,000 acres of prairie, pines, rocks, and river, home to 600 wild mustangs living free. It was my fifth visit to the sanctuary, which I documented in a chapter of my book Horse Sanctuary a few years ago. This time I also visited Custer State Park nearby to see bison and pronghorns in numbers. I find the massive uncuddly bison as fascinating as their history is tragic. Some 1,300 of them live free at Custer, wandering along the park roads and wallowing in the dirt to repel the insects. The delicacy of the pronghorns is a remarkable counterpoint to the vastness of the bison.

“On the home front, I’ve been working hard on my third book. This one is about various kinds of equine therapy programs offered around the United States to help people with a range of disabilities including autism, Down syndrome, PTSD, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, muscular dystrophy, and addiction to injurious substances. I’ve documented programs in Arizona, Texas, Kentucky, and New York and completed about two-thirds of the photography. The text writer and I have prepared a proposal for our agent, who will be submitting it to publishers this fall. Fingers crossed! “I continue to run four times a week (on a wonderful track a mile and a half from home–my concession to age being that I rarely run hills or on concrete surfaces), and I take a lesson in western horsemanship with a beautiful quarter horse mare called Star every week. In September, I will travel to Dresden and Prague with Lou who has a nice eight day gap in his European tour schedule, then I head back to the Southwest for a month of hiking and camping on my own in October. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to experience and photograph so many wondrous parts of the world.” Sandy Ackley Kirk writes, “Gil and I went to Maine for a week with our eldest child, Kristin Kirk Florey ’84, and her family. Beautiful weather, beaching, lobsters and steamed clams. The kids even did some catch and release shark fishing. Our son, Zac, and his family spend their summer vacations in Hessel, Michigan in the UP with a lot of our Ackley relatives. Our youngest daughter, Lindsey Kirk ’01 has been coming back to Columbus from San Francisco with her husband, and daughter, California Summer, for various events, such as weddings and birthdays, and we have delightful visits with them. Cali was a year old on May 12th, so she is now, since July, walking and starting to talk. Facetime helps us share Cali’s developments. Hope our classmates are doing well. Love to you all.”

Both my son and daughter have visited with their children so I have had a lively summer and am now enjoying some adult-oriented time up North with Susan. Recently, we had lunch with Betsy Kurtz Argo ’63 who has taken up knitting, a favorite activity of both Susan and me.” Susie Wyker LaPorte writes, “Barney and I are well and happy and will celebrate 52 years of marriage in October. One daughter and two children live in Cincinnati and the other daughter, husband and two children live near us in Florida. I also look forward to the sister visits twice a year with Becky Wyker Hawksley ’59, Debby Wyker Hoster ’61, and Marty Wyker Anderton ’63 who are all fine in spite of growing older.

Lisa Platt Carmalt, our class Philadelphian, is hosting it, doing a wonderful job getting us settled in a hotel not far from her home, and helping us line up activities that satisfy our myriad interests. On schedule so far are an exploration of revolutionary war sites, a docent-led tour of the amazing Barnes Foundation collection (more than 3,000 masterpieces from the impressionist, post-impressionist, the early modern periods, and more, to paraphrase its website), and a visit to Chanticleer Garden, an estate and botanical garden located just outside Philadelphia. Mostly, however, we’re planning to just be together and share our memories, stories and plans, as we have been doing for six or seven decades, depending on where you start counting. We’ll have pictures for the next Forte et Gratum.”

1966 Class Representative: Kay Jeffrey Kathy McClure Whitlow writes, “I was one of the fourteen who attended our fiftieth reunion in April. I have been to quite a few reunions, but this one was the absolute best! For one thing, we looked great (congrats to us who will be seventy in two years), and we had some quality time together. We really got to share at a deep level with one another, especially on Friday night at Lynn Byers Barno’s house. We went around the roo—before and after pizza– Skyping with Jane Schiff, who unfortunately could not be there. As each lady shared, we laughed, we cried, we applauded, and most importantly, we listened with our hearts! Not all of the ladies had graduated with our class, moving to Bexley High freshman year, but the comradery was seamless. In fact, we had such a great time that we have unofficially decided to meet somewhere other than Columbus for our 70th Birthday celebration.”

Class Representative: Marla Lumbert-Smith Cole AmySue Greentree Taylor writes, “It’s been an exciting year. I moved my law office after 22 years from downtown Columbus to Powell which cut my drive time by over an hour twice a day. It’s a small office space but close enough to my husband of 35 years that we can have lunch! What’s more important is my family. My 19 year old/youngest, Kip just finished his 1st year at Kent State.

In every single day and every single way, life is getting better and better.” Katharine Ireland Conley writes, “I’m currently teaching freshman English at the local girls’ high school in Phoenix.

We also shared this presentation at the Center for Western Studies in Sioux Falls as part of the art exhibit, “I Have the Honor to Report,” by the Blood Run Artists of the Big Sioux, South Dakota. In late April, we presented an update on the work of the Keepers at the 48th Annual Dakota Conference at the Center For Western Studies. Most recently, in May, we gave the asylum presentation in Canton, South Dakota as part of that city’s 150th anniversary and as part of the annual Honoring Ceremony for the 121 Native American inmates who remain buried on the asylum grounds. We are in the process of making plans to share this presentation on the Rosebud Reservation here in South Dakota and with the Gila River Indian Community in Arizona later this year. “The S-Corp I began with four colleagues on April 1, 2015 (Journey Counseling Services LLC) continues to expand here in Sioux Falls.

Since her address was about a mile from my house, I decided to deliver it personally and take the opportunity to make a new acquaintance. Jean Kramer Findeis ’51 kindly invited me into her home and we spent a wonderful half hour or so chatting about our CSG experience and what we’ve done since. We had a lot in common in spite of the years that separate our classes. The meeting was really special.

FORMER FACULTY AND STAFF It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Mary Fry on August 1, 2016. Mrs. Fry taught Upper School English and Drama from 1966 until her retirement in 1992. Mrs. Fry taught for many years alongside her husband, Mr. C. Edgar Fry. He passed away in 2001. Mrs. Fry was remembered by Meg Mass ’89, “Even among excellent teachers, she stood out. Many happy memories and so much intellectual curiosity fostered in her classroom. I learned so much from both of them—that the foundation of social sciences is being curious about and loving people, that in theater and in life, the most important changes happen when nothing appears to be happening, that it’s okay to have fun while you’re teaching.” It is with great sadness that we report the death of David M. Hamilton. Mr. Hamilton served on the CSG Maintenance Team for more than 10 years, from 1981 until he retired in 1993. We offer our sympathies to Mr. Hamilton’s family.

She proudly lived independently right until her final day, with an active and inquisitive mind. She loved her iPhone and Buckeye football! It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Dorothy Sehring on June 26, 2016. Mrs. Sehring was a Form IV teacher from 1963 until 1990. She has been remembered by the way she brought life into the classroom, and taught more than just academic lessons. Masu Haque ’91 wrote a tribute on social media, “Mrs. Sehring was the most memorable teacher I’ve ever had. She made learning so much fun and I loved absolutely everything she taught me in 4th
grade—from calligraphy, to the beauty of Shakespeare, drama and comedy, to our class’ first overnight trip to Marietta, Ohio, some of my best childhood memories are all a direct result of the love, care and creativity she poured into her craft and inspired in all of us. I am so sorry for your family’s loss -- if she impacted her students this much, one can only imagine how much you all will miss her in your daily lives.” This year, we would like to implement a Former Faculty/Staff Representative, very much like the Class Representatives. If you are interested in acting as the Representative for CSG’s Former and Retired Faculty/Staff, please let us know.

Greetings from the 2016-2017 Alumnae Board Hello Alumnae! We on the Alumnae Board are thrilled to kick off another year full of exciting events and opportunities to connect with each other and the school. The school is growing and changing and the alumnae are vital to its continued success. The Alumnae Board has three goals this year: 1) Continue to raise funds for the Alumnae Board Scholarship. The Alumnae Board Scholarship is the only donor-funded merit-based scholarship at CSG, and it is awarded to either a current or incoming student in Form IX. This scholarship is invaluable to attracting and retaining the best and brightest women in Columbus, and we are so proud to be able to be a part of it. 2) Become a better resource for you, the alumnae! We have an astounding network of extremely accomplished women in all fields of employment in cities across the country and the globe. We want to develop that network! Be on the lookout for a new resource that will help identify CSG alums both by geographic location and area of expertise. 3) Increase engagement in our community. We want all alumnae, whether you are in Seattle, DC, New York, or here in Columbus, to have the opportunity to participate in meaningful events that will remind you of the best parts of your CSG experience. We are planning book clubs, discussion groups, and volunteer activities that will give you the chance to engage in thoughtful discussion and also introduce you to CSG alums in your area! But most importantly, we want to hear from you! If you have ideas for events, questions about how to get involved, or even if you just want to say hi, please email me at Kacey.Chappelear@gmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you, and I hope to see you soon! Kacey Chappelear ’98 Alumnae Board President

Dear Friends of CSG, THANK YOU! We are thrilled to offer this 2015-16 “Annual Report on Giving” celebrating the truly generous spirit of our community. This past year was a great success in the classroom, on our stages and athletic fields, and in the many other extracurricular activities in which CSG girls of all ages and Forms participate. We celebrated alumnae and student leaders hard at work in their communities. And we vigorously applaud the Class of 2016 — talented young women who earned remarkable college acceptances. I know you join me in taking pride in all of this success. And it is because of you that Lavea Brachman ’80
this is possible.
As a member of the CSG Board of Trustees, I am truly inspired by this community’s on-going support in all ways. Contributions of time, talent, and treasure are all gifts to the school that are valued and are investments in our girls’ young lives. As a Board, we are proud of our stewardship and on-going commitment to maximize these gifts and all of our school resources — human, financial and reputational — to hire the best faculty, maintain world class and appropriate campus facilities, assert our community leadership, and ensure the well-rounded and competitive curriculum that is the hallmark of a CSG education. As I complete my tenure as Chair of the Board, I am pleased to hand the reigns to my friend and colleague, fellow CSG parent Ronald “Rocky” Robins P ’20, ’28. I am excited to see Rocky, the rest of the CSG Board, and our tremendous Head of School, Jennifer Ciccarelli, partner to lead the school to its next stage of growth and excellence. As our new strategic plan states, CSG is “educating and empowering girls to reach their full potential as learners and leaders.” CSG’s vision is clear, and the future is bright. Thank you, again, for your generous support of the school and our girls.

Financial Highlights Through the careful stewardship, planning, and management of CSG resources led by Board Treasurer, Bernie Ostrowski P’16 and CFO Julie Eikenberry, along with the philanthropic generosity of the CSG community, the school ended FY16 in sound financial shape. The modest profit realized during FY16 was the result of a successful fund raising program, including realization of a generous estate gift. In addition, consortium buying strategies resulted in lower energy costs, while employee turnover created short-term lower payroll expenditures.

Alumna’s Trust Benefits Future of CSG A graduate of Duke University, Cynthia Black Jeffrey ’54 created an estate intention to support Columbus School for Girls after her death to acknowledge the special relationship she had with her school. Mrs. Jeffrey was a superior horsewoman with a passion for education, generously giving back to CSG during her lifetime through her time and talent, serving in leadership positions on both the Board of Trustees and the Alumnae Board. CSG was greatly saddened by her untimely passing in 1996, and twenty years later, was honored to be one of six institutions across the country included as a beneficiary of the Cynthia Black Jeffrey Trust. This past May, the Board of Trustees chose to celebrate Cynthia’s legacy and love for the school by designating a portion of her gift to fund a new initiative to fortify outreach efforts and strategically welcome new students into our school community. In her memory, and under the leadership of Director of Admission, Jenni Reeb Biehn ’88, CSG is working to remain both creative and tactical to ensure that the brightest girls in central Ohio girls have an opportunity to be part of CSG, following Cynthia’s path as they grow as learners and leaders. Cynthia’s late husband, Joseph Jeffrey, Jr., was also quite fond of CSG and very generous to the school. In March of 1999, over 97 acres of land proximate to Rocky Fork Creek, The Cynthia Black Jeffrey Woodland Preserve, (lovingly referred to by CSG as “Cynthia’s Woods”) was deeded to the school in celebration of Cynthia’s memory. Mr. Jeffrey wished to preserve the forested areas on land his father had owned on Crooked Mile Road in Gahanna, property on which there were extensive trails. Cynthia had enjoyed riding her horse on these same trails. By giving the property to CSG, Mr. Jeffrey was able to make certain that the land remained undeveloped, yet available as a living/learning laboratory for students who follow in Cynthia’s footsteps.
To honor and celebrate a special relationship with her school, Cynthia Black Jeffrey ’54 created an estate intention to support CSG after her death. If you have included CSG in your estate plans, or would like more information on the Golden Unicorn Society, please contact Dana Booth, Chief Development Officer at (614) 252-0781 ext.130, or at dbooth@columbusschoolforgirls.org.

IRA CHARITABLE
ROLLOVER The IRA Charitable Rollover is Now Permanent! transfers as a giving vehicle to CSG are now a permanent option for eligible donors. The Charitable Rollover provision allows CSG alumnae and friends ages 70 ½ and older to gift up to $100,000 annually directly from an Individual Retirement Account to CSG (or to any 501 (c)(3) organization) without treating the distribution as taxable income. Married couples with two individual IRAs may take up to $200,000 tax free each year. This vehicle creates a planning opportunity, allowing satisfaction or reduction of the personal tax impact of a required minimum distribution while making a personal impact on the people and programs at CSG. For information on how to make a gift to CSG, contact Dana Booth, Chief dbooth@columbusschoolforgirls.org.
