A Campaign Update BOLDLY FORWARD

In Fall 2016, the Board of Trustees unanimously approved an ambitious master plan that would touch nearly every corner of campus. This spring, we celebrated the success of the Boldly Forward Capital Campaign, which brought to life the vision for updated academic buildings, a state-of-the-art Athletics & Wellness Center, a stunning new dining hall, and the addition and expansion of several community spaces.

It is all thanks to the support of hundreds of donors, with gifts ranging from $50 to more than $3 million, that we have exceeded our fundraising goals. Special thanks goes to our Campaign Co-Chair Sharon Gibbons Teles ’88, and our former Campaign Co-Chairs Wil Warren P’17, ’20 and Megin Wolfman P’23, ’25, along with all of the members of the Advancement Committee, the Board of Trustees and all of our volunteers.

Our new Susan Haigh Carver ’51 Dining Hall and Athletics & Wellness Center have transformed our campus and strengthened our programming across all ages and grade levels, and they serve as wonderful gathering spaces for our entire community. Campaign gifts for our endowment have helped to establish funds in support of mission-critical areas of focus including financial aid, diversity, equity and inclusion efforts, STEM and other academic programs. None of this would have been possible without the support of our community. Thank you for helping Country School continue to move boldly forward into the future, and thank you for making so many wonderful things possible for all of our students.

Formally Opens with Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Board members Tara Coniglio, Sharon Gibbons Teles ’88 and Tucker Golden ’90 joined Head of School Aaron Cooper (with scissors) to symbolically open the Athletics & Wellness Center, which was completed during the pandemic.

THANK YOU!

“Chief among a long list of all-stars are former board members Randy Salvatore and Stephanie Bowling Zeigler ’81, who easily logged 1,000 hours on the project.”
