Dear Ramaz Family,

The launch of the 2020-2021 school year was an undertaking like none other in Ramaz’s 85-year history. Between retrofitting all three Ramaz school buildings with health and safety upgrades over the summer, to providing all faculty and staff with the necessary educational technology training and equipment by the start of the school year, it was an intense period of learning and innovating in real time. We are grateful to all those who supported the Ramaz Responds Relief Fund, and to the staff - particularly our facilities and security teamswho worked tirelessly throughout the summer, and without whom the re-opening of Ramaz would not have been possible.

We launched the school year with the theme of Rise Together, reflecting back on the many ways our community stayed connected and committed to one another, even while we were apart. This theme exemplified the goals of rebuilding and unity we hoped to accomplish over the coming months, and in fact, as our school year progressed, it was clear that Rising Together was more than just a trendy phrase or a passing idea. It is a Ramaz value, here to stay, and prevalent in everything we do.

Together, we found new ways to strengthen connections and engage with one another. We saw an increase in those who gifted their time to the school and supported our annual campaign in ways that were meaningful and impactful. We witnessed countless acts of chesed among community members. We collaborated and partnered with an increased number of organizations that helped our community members through hard times.

In short, we had a plan, innovated, and as a result, gained a wealth of knowledge that will shape our school for years to come.

As you read through this year’s Ramaz Development Report, we invite you to review the many development and innovation highlights from 5781. We are proud of our community for making 2020-2021 a unique period where we not only survived but truly thrived. Rising Together this past year has positioned our community for exciting growth, and we look forward to moving to the Next Level collectively in 2021-2022.

We want to thank you for your support of the 5781 Ramaz school year and for the vital impact your participation has made in shaping our school. As 5782 unfolds, we are excited to announce promising new initiatives such as the groundbreaking Lookstein Legacy Campaign, and hope you will join us as we continue to strive towards academic excellence and imbuing our students with a deep sense of Torah, Jewish identity, and Menschlichkeit.

Wishing you and your loved ones a wonderful and healthy school year,

Jonathan Cannon Kenny Rochlin ’86 Erica Tannenbaum Head of School Head of Institutional Advancement Director of Development

RAMAZ RESPONDS RELIEF FUND

Tosupport the shift in our day-to-day operations due to the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as the unprecedented needs of our families requesting tuition assistance in 2020-2021, the Ramaz Responds Fund was established to support:

• Health & Safety Upgrades – adding CDC-compliant upgrades to all school buildings

• Technology & Teacher Training - critical to launching and supporting virtual learning

• Tuition Assistance – for families financially impacted by the pandemic

• Faculty Transportation Stipend – to assist with safe commuting

Ramaz Responds provided vital funds necessary to open the school. We are thankful to all those who supported this campaign and allowed us to safely open our doors to students in 2020-2021.

THE RAMAZ 2020-2021 ANNUAL CAMPAIGN:

RISE TOGETHER

Running From July 1 - June 30, the Ramaz Annual Campaign is dedicated to raising unrestricted gifts for the school to support operations and provide the unique co-curricular programs that make our educational experience what it is.

Additionally, the Annual Campaign provides essential tuition assistance funds which allow us to uphold our mission to maintain a “needs-blind” admission policy, accepting children based solely on their merits and not their financial capacity.

2 RAMAZ 2020-2021
nearly 1 in 4 students received tuition assistance in 2020-2021

Virtual Campus

TThe Ramaz Virtual Campus was conceived as an opportunity to educate and engage the Ramaz community during the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond. Since March 2020, it has grown to become a space where current parents, alumni, parents of alumni, grandparents, and KJ community members gather to learn, grow spiritually and professionally, and tour the world, all from the comfort of their homes.

The Ramaz Alumni Association Day of Giving

The Ramaz Alumni Association hosted its day of giving via the Virtual Campus this year. Complete with a full-day Yom Iyun learning on Sukkot, and culminating in a Simchat Beit Hashoevah, participants (as well as the entire alumni community) were encouraged to make gifts of support. It was a stellar example of how a Ramaz education continues well beyond graduation.

GRANDPARENT CIRCLE

The Young Rams Society

TThe Ramaz alumni and parent of alumni community continue to be a driving force within the greater Ramaz community. Having seen an increase in support from its younger alumni, Ramaz launched the Young Rams Society this year. This dedicated group of young Ramaz Alumni (classes 2011-2020) is committed to supporting their school community and current students.

This year, our Ramaz grandparents made a tremendous impact on our community and directly shaped our students’ - and their grandchildrens’education. They provided first-hand accounts of the Holocaust, learned with our children, and provided gifts of support to our school.

Programming Highlights:

• Veterans Day

• Yom Ha’Atzmaut

• Intergenerational Learning with Upper School Students

The Move4Ramaz Hineni Challenge

After a year spent apart, indoors, on screens and generally moving less, we reimagined our Hineni Day of Giving with a week-long Move4Ramaz initiative which united our school and community through a series of energy-boosting movement activities and challenges. Together, we got moving at school, while parents, family, and friends supported our students’ efforts sponsoring their movement challenges and sharing notes of encouragement.

FUNDRAISING HIGHLIGHTS AT RAMAZ

The Ramaz (Virtual) Annual Event

While a global pandemic may have forced us to stay apart in 2020-2021, our (Virtual) Annual Event provided the opportunity to explore a variety of new ways to stay connected. Aptly titled, The Greatest Show on Zoom, this year’s program allowed us to expand our community tremendously with a streamed, on-line syndication, viewed by thousands in the Ramaz community worldwide. An interactive message board, with a real-time donation feed, encouraged messages of gratitude to individuals while supporting the community. Our students shined in their performances and the videos offered an in-depth view of life inside the Ramaz classrooms.

Much more than just a production, The Greatest Show on Zoom taught us that on-line, interactive events are a powerful way to keep our community connected. While in-person events are ideal, the lessons learned this year will endure into the future.

KOOLULAM

2020-2021 RAMAZ 5
As part of the Virtual Celebration, Ramaz and Koolulam produced a deeply moving rendition of Maroon 5’s “Memories,” in English and Hebrew with over 150 Ramaz participants from around the world, including alumni, parents of alumni, grandparents, faculty and of course our current families.

SPONSORSHIP HIGHLIGHTS

AT RAMAZ

Corporate Sponsorships

This year’s virtual platform allowed Ramaz to expand its campaign support beyond our community. Corporate sponsorships were available as part of the The Greatest Show on Zoom

A variety of advertising packages provided prime logo placement across all Ramaz platforms (email, website, and throughout the evening’s streamed event), reaching over 10,000 people and raising almost $75,000.

Corporate Matches

Many corporations participated in charitable giving by matching donations made by their employees. To raise awareness of this benefit, and to help our donors explore whether their employer offered match giving benefits, we added a tool to our donation page, which helped potential donors research whether this opportunity was available to them. The tool proved to be exceedingly helpful.

Individuals not only doubled their donations, but Ramaz doubled the amount of matching gifts to this year’s campaign! For those interested in learning more about corporate matches, contact development@ramaz.org.

RISE TOGETHER

SPECIAL PROGRAM AND DAYS OF LEARNING SPONSORSHIPS

The Ramaz community continues to generously support the needs of the school that fall outside the operating budget through special program sponsorships, and sponsored days of learning. Our newest initiative, Sponsored Days of Learning has quickly become a meaningful way to celebrate a family or community milestone and honor the memory of a loved one (a Yahrzeit).

We are grateful to both our Special Program and Days of Learning Sponsors for their support.
