With Gratitude
DEAR PECK COMMUNITY,
I am profoundly grateful for our incredible Peck community that time and again demonstrates consideration of others through their support of The Peck Fund and other fundraising eff orts. This Annual Report for 2021-2022 celebrates the generous donors and volunteers who make the exceptional experience of a Peck education possible.
It was a banner year for The Peck Fund, surpassing all expectations and breaking its record-setting high by exceeding $1.29 million. A highlight of the 2021-2022 Peck Fund was our Peck Pride Day of Giving, an opportunity for our community to come together to support the school's mission. The remarkable day raised $645,394 for The Peck Fund, which included a $150,000 Board of Trustee match. The Day of Giving had 302 supporters, made up of alumni, parents, parents of alumni, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends. Thank you for giving back as our community always does—with generosity and joy. We celebrate our amazing volunteers who willingly give their time and talents through the Parents Association. From over 20 committees tirelessly planning and executing community events and fundraisers—such as FFP, the school store, and the Spring Fundraiser—to everyday support from lunch proctors and class parents, our volunteers created opportunities to welcome families, connect as a community, and create a sense of belonging for all. Through their fundraising efforts, the Parents Association, lead by last year's president Cate Edell, contributed $275,000 in support of faculty grants, the Peck endowment, financial aid, enhancements to the PA Quad, faculty recruitment and retention, and a student favorite—the new gaga pit. We are deeply indebted to our Parents Association for their unwavering support.
We honor and recognize Suba Shah’s tenure as Board President these past three years. Suba led with calm, caring, and thoughtful leadership through extraordinarily challenging times. We welcomed Souren Ouzounian as our new Board President in July and look forward to his steady leadership as we embark on implementing Peck’s new Strategic Plan.
With our community's continued spirit of generosity, we will realize our revised mission to inspire students to learn rigorously, grow in character, and lead healthy, productive, and principled lives. On behalf of Peck students, faculty, and staff, I thank you for your support.
With gratitude, Andrew C. Delinsky Head of School

From the Board President
FEELING THE JOY and energy when coming together during our Welcome Back Dinner reminded me of the strength of The Peck School’s community. It was exciting to see so many familiar faces and to welcome all of our new families. It never ceases to amaze me that our community’s culture fosters a caring, supportive atmosphere that encourages participation and belonging. The generosity of our community’s time, energy, and resources continues to be the foundation that elevates our school.
Under the strong leadership of Andy Delinsky, the school continues to adapt and evolve to meet the needs of our students. I am proud that we are in the process of implementing a new Strategic Plan that will guide every decision that we make to ensure that Peck remains a leader in K-8 education. The contributions from the Strategic Design Committee, the Board of Trustees, faculty, administrators, and many community members combined to create a vision authentic to Peck. The new mission statement reads: “The Peck School inspires students to learn rigorously, grow in character, and lead healthy, productive, and principled lives.” This mission statement's guiding principle is what unites our community and inspires our belief in The Peck School. It is amazing to think that our community continues to make record contributions to The Peck Fund. Credit goes to Sarah Quinn Clausen and our wonderful advancement team, who inspire and foster the incredible philanthropic nature of our community. Your continued support allows Andy, the faculty, and the administration to think broadly about what our students truly need to achieve the goal of our mission statement.
Through the recent challenging times, we have been so grateful for the efforts of our Peck Parents Association leadership, led by PA President Cate Edell last year and Ali McMahon this year. The PA works tirelessly to provide us with opportunities to expand our relationships with all community members including parents, faculty, and administrators. These connections are the source of our strength.
As I think about my time serving the board, I cherish my relationships with an incredible group of people. The willingness to always look through the lens of supporting the needs of our school defined our work. I am inspired by our trustees' generosity and know that the board is in very capable hands with Souren Ouzounian serving as board chair. I am proud to be a part of a community where philanthropy is part of our philosophy and believe, as Winston Churchill said, ‘We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.’
Sincerely,
Subhadra Shah, MD President of the Board of Trustees

MATCHING GIFTS
Companies often provide financial support through employee matching gift programs.
By matching their employees’ donations to nonprofit organizations, these companies enable donors to multiply their support by doubling or, in some cases, tripling their gifts. Matching gifts can be made through cash or pledges.
To create a matching gift, contact your company’s Human Resource Office.

Invest in Peck: The Sutphen Society
Charitable giving can be an important part of your estate planning. Bequests, gift annuities, and charitable trusts are vehicles through which you can provide valuable financial support to The Peck School. They also can provide significant financial benefits for you and your loved ones. We encourage you to seek advice from a tax professional about including Peck in your estate planning.
There are several ways you can support an institution such as Peck. The following are among the most popular choices for making a charitable gift:
The Sutphen Society
F ounded in 1998, The Sutphen Society recognizes the generosity of alumni, parents, and other members of the Peck family who establish a planned giving arrangement with The Peck School.
Membership in the Sutphen Society demonstrates a commitment to elementary education and perpetuates your relationship with The Peck School.
Planned gifts include bequests, life income trusts, and other deferred giving arrangements.
A bequest of any size qualifi es a donor for membership in the Sutphen Society. Donors are advised to consult their fi nancial advisors who are experienced in the area of estate planning.
Unrestricted planned gifts are usually designated to the school’s endowment. Donors wishing to restrict the purpose of their gift or establish a named fund should discuss their intentions with representatives from the school to ensure that their wishes can be met.
Remembering Peck in this special way establishes a tradition of philanthropy so important to The Peck School.
Bequests
You may make a gift to The Peck School by designating the school as a bene ciary in your will. A bequest can be made for a speci c amount or as a percentage of the total estate. Bequests can be unrestricted or used to establish named gift funds (e.g. scholarship fund) or memorial funds. Bequests of any size will help to secure the strength of the school for future generations.
Gift Annuities
Under a gift annuity agreement, you make a gift to Peck in return for the school’s promise to make an annual payment to you of a speci ed dollar amount for as long as you live. The amount of the annual payment depends upon your age and is based on a xed percentage of the initial fair market value of your gift. A portion of your gift is tax-deductible.
Charitable Remainder Trust
A charitable remainder trust may be designed to provide you with income throughout your lifetime as well as support to ThePeck School upon your death. The trust may be established with a gift of cash or appreciated stock. A trust can be structured in one of two ways–either as an annuity trust or unitrust. The important difference between the two options involves the way distributions are handled.
Charitable Lead Trusts
With a charitable lead trust you essentially “lend” a charity your assets for a set period of time. At the end of the gift period, the property you placed in the trust either returns to you, or is passed on to named individuals. Charitable giving is important to the growth of the school’s endowment. Income from the endowment fund helps Peck remain a leader in elementary education by providing a stimulating environment for learning, scholarship funds, augmenting faculty salaries, and supporting programs and curriculum needs.
Our staff welcomes the opportunity to meet with you and your advisors to discuss how you can include Peck in your estate plan. Discussions are con dential and are held without obligation. Questions and inquiries should be addressed to:

Peck Pride Day of Giving
The Peck School celebrated the birthday of a very special member of our community, Pride the Lion! On a day filled with joy and celebration our community answered the call to support The Peck Fund—a crucial cornerstone of Peck’s operational budget, and one that enhances every aspect of the Peck experience. More than 300 generous gifts were given in Pride’s honor totaling over $645,000, including a $150,000 Board of Trustees match, making this year’s Peck Pride Day of Giving the most successful yet! Thank you to the generous donors who joined in the festivities!
