LJCDS Philanthropy, whether for greatest needs or programmatic support, funds every area of campus. Because of that, it touches all students, age 3 through Grade 12. At the same time, our Torreys learn about the practice and importance of giving back and the impact it has on their campus, as well as locally, nationally and globally. ljcds is well known for graduating scholars, but it also launches young people into the world ready to make it better. Whether big or small, their efforts matter and model compassion and altruism.

Philanthropy makes so much possible. On behalf of every student, faculty and staff member, thank you!

FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL

BOAR D OF TR UST EES 2019–2020

Dear Philanthropist, A S A M E M B E R O F L A J O L L A C O U N T R Y DAY S C H O O L’ S P H I L A N T H R O P I C C O M M U N I T Y,

you model a powerful predictor of success—giving. Generosity of time, treasure and talent is a core Torrey trait, one that is correlated with higher productivity and efficiency.

Studies also show that giving promotes well-being, meaning and purpose, all of which are necessary for happiness and achievement.

Another powerful predictor of success is resiliency, and I believe our school community has exemplified it in recent months. While 2020 has challenged—and changed—us, along with the rest of the world, it has also offered important silver linings. Chief among them has been the opportunity to learn how to adapt. Like anything worthwhile, to do it well requires positivity and practice, and we are making both top priorities.

Now in my sixth year as head of school, I truly understand why the Torrey pine tree is our mascot. Because of its dynamic root system, it has an exceptionally strong foundation, allowing it to adjust—and thrive—in harsh weather. Our ability to offer educational opportunities that create the same resiliency in students is only possible with philanthropy.

Tuition revenue is not enough, and it never has been.

I would like to thank you for what you have done, are doing and will do for our students and alumni. Your gifts make lasting and far-reaching differences.

This year’s Report on Giving represents our multi-faceted, dynamic, nimble and ambitious community and showcases just some of the programs and people of excellence— limiting content is no small feat! While there are many reasons our school is exceptional, our faculty is the greatest among them.

Our school has a long tradition of valuing and teaching to the whole student. Because of this, LJCDS is a lightning rod for educators, who—like our founder, Louise Balmer— expertly leverage and blend traditional and progressive curriculum and instruction. As practitioners, they ask what if? and why not? and invite our students to do the same. This unlocks each student’s potential and unique excellence.

I am grateful to you for making LJCDS a philanthropic priority during the 2019–2020 academic year. Together, we can continue to co-create an environment that is preparing our students to handle life with goodness, flexibility and determination. With the tumult we continue to experience, they will need all three qualities to navigate and shape a world we can only begin to imagine.

In gratitude and partnership,

• Enrollment grows by more than 100 students.

• A successful capital campaign raises more than $450,000 ($4,000,000 in today’s dollars) to build its new campus on Genesee Avenue.

Since its founding in 1926, La Jolla Country Day School has relied on private donations from parents, grandparents, alumni, faculty, staff and friends. In fact, an ljcds education is funded by both tuition and philanthropy.

Together, these revenue streams fund a blend of traditional and progressive curriculum and instruction that prepares students for a lifetime of intellectual exploration, personal growth and social responsibility.

GREATEST NEED

Country Day Fund (CDF)

Philanthropy is critical to advancing the mission and promise of La Jolla Country Day School. LJCDS relies on philanthropy from every member of our school community, including parents and grandparents of current and graduated Torreys, alumni, students, faculty/staff, corporations and friends. Why? Tuition is not and has never been enough to fund a school that is academically, artistically and athletically the caliber of ljcds. cdf dollars, like tuition revenue, flow into the school’s budgeting process to ensure every age 3 through Grade 12 student will benefit from them. By design, they are flexible and have a reach that is both far and wide. Because of this, CDF gifts make a great deal possible and are the school’s number one philanthropic priority year after year.

Donors to LJCDS’s greatest need donors are noted by [•] in the column titled “CDF” on the 2019–2020 list of donors located on pages 14–25.

Education is highly valued in our family, and we know our grandkids are getting an exceptional education at ljcds.

We believe that all children deserve a great education.

BLUE BASH

Goes Virtual

Once a year, ljcds’s community joins together to celebrate our school and raise money to support areas critical to our campus’s success. With gourmet food, libations and dancing, Blue Bash is a time-honored tradition that raises money to further fund ljcds’s many needs. Ticket sales, sponsorships, silent and live auctions and fund-a-need paddle raises contribute to tuition assistance, faculty/staff professional growth, Parents Association activities and the school’s endowment. In recent years, event proceeds have surpassed $500,000. The 2019–2020 gala was no exception, despite having to go virtual because of covid-19.

In a matter of days, Blue Bash became Blue Bash Goes Virtual, thanks to its planning committee’s ability to reimagine and retool the historically in-person gala—and it was remarkable!

Donors to Blue Bash Goes Virtual are noted by [•] in the column titled “BB” on the 2019–2020 list of donors located on pages 14–25.

We are so proud to be part of a community that can pull together in such a challenging time. We feel the connection, despite the distance. It is the result of collective strength and kindness made up of individual strength and kindness.

FUN DS RAI SE D BE N E FI T E D :

Tuition Assistance: At LJCDS, a diverse community representing a variety of cultural, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds is achieved through tuition assistance.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion: The Parents Association directed a portion of proceeds from Blue Bash to fund LJCDS’s efforts around diversity, equity and inclusion.

Faculty/Staff Professional Growth: To remain on the leading-edge of pedagogy, faculty and staff must continually ensure their craft is second to none. From conferences to global excursions, new learning experiences keep them current, equipping our educators with ways to innovate in their LJCDS classroom. All of this is to benefit our students.

Endowment: A strong endowment provides LJCDS with a steady source of revenue and is essential to the long-term stability of a first-class educational institution.

WELLNESS PROGRAM In partnership with Rady Children’s Hospital, the LJCDS Wellness Program is the first of its kind.

With mental illness on the rise and occurring at younger ages, Rady Children’s and LJCDS experts are designing a model that can be easily adopted and scaled for other schools across the country. With philanthropic support from members of our school community, much has already been accomplished.

Phase I of the wellness framework and pilot program from age 3 through Grade 12 has been deployed; teachers and parents/guardians have been surveyed to assess campus culture, climate and co-vitality, resulting in the identification of opportunities to

leverage and barriers to overcome; real-time input has been gathered from the student body and school staff to inform outreach and prevention, including multiple parent and faculty workshops; one-onone and small group wellness sessions have been facilitated; an empowerment/leadership cohort, Youth Advisory Group, for Grades 7 through 12 has been created; and professional development and classroom integration across pre-K through Grade 12 has been provided. Much more is taking place or being planned. None of it would have been possible without the shared vision and philanthropy of generous members of the LJCDS community.

Donors to the Wellness Program are noted by [•] in the column titled “WP” on the 2019–2020 list of donors located on pages 14–25.

The health and well-being of our children is paramount.

We are honored to partner with ljcds and help fund this innovative wellness program. The program is one of a kind and is making a real difference for our community and beyond. I applaud Dr. Krahn and the entire wellness team for bringing this program to life and for serving as a model for other schools.

COMMUNITY SUPPORT FUND COVID-19 created havoc that was unimaginable

in 2020. In response, important and timely decisions were made to keep the LJCDS community safe and whole. Among them was the establishment of the Community Support Fund to mitigate financial hardships experienced by many families. Specifically, some students needed, they need new or increased tuition assistance in order to remain enrolled.

Because of the extraordinary show of goodwill and

generosity by the LJCDS community, those families returned for the 2020–2021 academic year. In fact, enrollment grew. Increased funds for tuition, along with a campus recognized for its superb distance learning curriculum and safety protocols, have drawn new families to LJCDS. Work in this area remains paramount, and LJCDS is steadfast and committed to making an LJCDS education affordable for those whose livelihoods have been altered.

Donors to the Community Support Fund are noted by [•] in the column titled “CSF” on the 2019–2020 list of donors located on pages 14–25.

ALUMNI GIVING Alumni are the greatest testament to the power of a Torrey education. Throughout their time at LJCDS, students prepare for a lifetime of intellectual exploration, personal growth and social responsibility. After their time on Genesee Avenue, our alumni go on to make significant contributions here at home, across the country and around the world. Torreys of all ages continue to uphold the pillar of social responsibility, and return to their alma mater to give back in a myriad of ways. No matter where their paths lead them, they always know they have a forever home at LJCDS. We say “once a Torrey, always a Torrey.” Long after their years as LJCDS students, alumni continue to play an integral role in the school community, sharing time, expertise and resources for the betterment of the school. During the 2019–2020 school year, 46 alumni volunteered as reunion planners, Collegiate Alumni panelists, Virtual Career Day speakers, admission and phonathon callers. The 145 alumni who gave back philanthropically donated $341,759 to help support the school’s greatest need, tuition assistance, faculty/staff professional development and our Community Support Fund.

Country Day was a place where I was given space to be my own person, and a place to gain a better understanding of myself and the world around me.

Pierre Cozic ’20

Alumni enhance LJCDS and enrich the experience of current Torreys following in their footsteps. As active members of the alumni community, graduates maintain lifelong bonds with their LJCDS teachers, coaches and mentors, learn from their peers, and form lasting relationships with fellow Torreys.

We are proud of our alumni and grateful for their commitment to their alma mater.

About Us 20 1 9– 20 20

OFFICE OF PHILANTHROPY A La Jolla Country Day School education requires two funding streams: tuition and philanthropy. This has been true since our founding by Louise Balmer in 1926. As the school’s fundraising arm, the Office of Philanthropy partners with parents and grandparents of current students and alumni, as well as alumni, faculty/ staff, students and friends to raise funds to bridge what is known as “the gap” between what tuition covers and the cost of an ljcds education. Most, if not all, independent schools share this financial model, from the East Coast to the West Coast. As Torreys, we believe in the power of philanthropy at school, in the community, across the country and around the world to make real, measurable and positive change and to ensure that our students are becoming the changeagents of tomorrow.
