2022 Annual Report

Page 1


August 1, 2022

Greetings from Montezuma,

Two months ago we held graduation at Glorieta, a retreat center near Santa Fe. We did so after the students and staff were evacuated from campus. We thought we would be gone for a few days when we left on April 29, but instead we were gone for the remainder of the school year. Our Get-Away Families and local partners were fantastic as we navigated the Calf Canyon/Hermit’s Peak Fire and its aftermath–all while themselves dealing with the threat of fire to their homes and community. Students, parents, board members, faculty, staff, and alumni rallied to help us through the challenges.

It's impossible to fully express the gratitude I feel for the support and encouragement we received from down the road and around the world. Thank you.

Of the many reasons we were able to successfully complete the year – even as we were getting a handle on Covid – I would like to highlight two. First, the faculty and staff went above and beyond to teach and support our students under the most trying times. And second, the work we did in the early stages of our strategic plan to strengthen the foundations of the school served us well during the pandemic and the evacuation.

This Annual Report contains facts and figures, donor rolls, and data points that together tell the story of this past year. It also contains four profiles of faculty and staff who made a difference throughout the year. I would like to highlight all the faculty and staff because everyone gave so generously of their time and expertise, but space only permits us to share a few across the school. Max, Abby, Dr. Sam, and Kate, like all the faculty and staff, rose to the occasion to make this year so successful.

The first phase of the strategic plan focused on strengthening the foundation with a particular emphasis on increasing efficiencies, improving technology platforms, and strenghthening staffing practices. Without these efforts our move to Glorieta could have been crippling rather than just immensely inconvenient.

While the United World College mission is timeless and never more important than today, the work we do with students needs to change to reflect a world with the rapid pace of technological change, increased polarization, and inequities that threaten our civil societies. We also recognize, given the human impact on climate that in part created the biggest fire in recorded history in New Mexico, that our students need to be ready to be advocates for sustainability. This got much more real for all of us just a few months ago and we feel an acute need to increase instruction and programming on sustainability going forward.

In conclusion, I want to thank you again for your support for our students and the UWC mission. We learned again this year that success is the result of many people working together. And one of the most important outcomes of a UWC-USA education is an enhanced ability to work with people effectively despite, and even because of, their differences. I look forward to working with you to encourage the next generation of leaders as they depart Montezuma for new roles and responsibilities in the greater world.

My very best,

Abby Sussman

”In the weeks preceding the evacuation, most conversations I had with students ended with a reminder to make sure their ‘go bag’ was ready,” said Abby Sussman, director of student life.

As the Hermit’s Peak/Calf Canyon Fire crept closer to Montezuma and the staff readied for the possibility of an evacuation, the resident life staff knew that students needed to be as prepared as possible for an evacuation to go smoothly. Abby developed a list of personal items for students to collect in a “go bag” in their dorm rooms so that they could all be ready to leave without delay. The “go bags” included chargers and devices, two days of clothing, travel documents, water bottles, sun protection, and, of course, hand sanitizer and masks.

The evacuation did go smoothly in large part to the work Abby and the resident life team put in to make sure everyone was ready. Even so, there were glitches. “I remember watching our dean of students, Naomi Swinton, sprint across the field as we were loading the buses to evacuate to fetch a student's passport that they had forgotten in their room.”

After two days at New Mexico Highlands University, the students and staff relocated to Glorieta, a camp and retreat center near Santa Fe. Many residents of Las Vegas and other areas threatened by the Hermit's Peak/Calf Canyon Fire also moved into rooms at Glorieta. Among them were people who were now homeless and whose livelihoods had vanished.

“I was reminded that our students are remarkable and amazing people who demonstrate passion, empathy, and curiosity,” Abby said. “At the evacuation site, students volunteered to help other evacuees move their belongings, take care of their pets, and listen to their stories. Even as they themselves were under intense academic pressure and reeling from the uncertainty of leaving everything behind on campus, they found a way to make a difference for others.”

UWC-USA FACULTY PROFILE

Dr. Sam

Dr. Peter Samaranayake, or Dr. Sam, as everyone calls him, is a beloved science and Theory of Knowledge teacher. He has taught at two other UWCs and is also the proud parent of two UWC-USA students. Because of his experience at other schools and his perspective as a parent, preserving the students’ academic experience in the midst of major upheaval was a key priority.

Dr. Sam feels his highest calling is to share the information and skills students need to grow academically. In order for students to excel, he also acutely feels the importance of creating a space for learning to happen—which he made possible even after the evacuation of the school to the retreat center. “I was pleased that many students found my new classroom an ideal space where they could find refuge in their need for quiet study time,” he said. “Some of them used the room late into the night and indeed into the wee hours of the morning, as I learned when I would come to class early and find students sleeping there!”

Faculty on campus live in close proximity to each other, but in the evacuation center families were housed in smaller rooms along the same hallways. Dr. Sam found that the new living arrangements during the last weeks of school led to even greater camaraderie. Additionally, he found the family style dining hall to be conducive to community. “Faculty were asked to spread out around the dining hall and sit at separate tables making sure that we were also seated with the students,” Dr. Sam said. “The family style dining, sharing from the same main dishes and taking turns in serving ourselves and others, was a new experience for many and I felt that it helped us support students throughout the displacement.”

We are enormously grateful to our alumni who gave back to UWC-USA during 2021-2022 and thrilled to report a participation rate of 27%. Alumni support allows us to ensure the same transformational ex perience for today's students and generations of UWCers to come.

We also thank the many alumni who assist the school, especially our Annual Fund volunteers, Reunion Committee members, internship providers, National Committee volunteers, events organizers and hosts, campus speakers, Alumni-In-Residence Fellows, and others who give of their time and talent to enrich UWC-USA.

Kate Ribeiro

An experienced English teacher who taught for two decades at the International School of Curacao, Kate Ribero taught theater arts for the first time when she came to UWC-USA. In an effort to improve her own theater skills, she auditioned this year for a community theater performance in Albuquerque. “I thought I would just go through the experience of the audition to gain some knowledge and experience to share with my students. I was surprised when I was actually cast in the show and even more surprised when I made the commitment to drive to Albuquerque 5 days a week for rehearsals.”

She found the experience, in the midst of a pandemic, challenged her beyond what she planned. “I learned so much, not the least of which was that I have incredible respect for actors. Often my drive back to campus at 11:00 pm each night was filled with tears and questions. Ultimately I realized that I can do difficult things, and throughout my time here I have often reminded myself of that.”

The idea that challenging students physically and intellectually leads to extraordinary growth is a fundamental principle of a UWC experience. Kate lived that tenet of the educational philosophy both in her profession and as the students and staff grappled with the pandemic and the threat of the wildfire that ultimately forced the community to evacuate.

After helping the students evacuate to New Mexico Highlands University when the order came, Kate was sidelined with Covid and had to wait a week to join the community at Glorieta, the retreat center where the students finished out the year. When she arrived at Glorieta ready to teach her classes and help the students finish strong, she found a community that was doing well - thriving even - thanks to the resilience of the students and the dedication of the staff at the retreat center. “I remember thinking how impressive it was to leave our campus and immediately be welcomed by the folks at Glorieta who fed, clothed, and housed us. I still feel pangs of gratitude whenever I drive to Santa Fe and see the sign for exit 299, the Glorieta exit, on Interstate 25.”

Glorieta Adventure Camps

Max Murphy

As manager of UWC-USA’s Constructive Engagement of Conflict programs on campus, Max Murphy designs curricula to train students to transform personal and communal conflict. He also oversees service learning programming and leads project-based trips where students engage with regional and global conflicts.

Since the onset of the pandemic, Max’s work, particularly in organizing community service opportunities for students, became much more difficult. Students at UWC-USA typically perform 17,000 hours of community service each year. Max worked hard to find alternatives to the work in elementary schools and the local homeless shelter that students were unable to conduct. For example, he was able to move some tutoring programs in local schools to Zoom.

Max is also a key member of the resident life team who helps students who run afoul of the community rules and UWC guidelines.

“I feel particularly proud this past year that I didn’t drop the ball on any of the disciplinary work with students even during our evacuation to Glorieta,” said Max. “We had a handful of outstanding Action Plans (repair steps resulting from restorative justice work) that were not complete when we had to leave campus. I continued to shepherd those students through their restorative steps up to graduation, making sure these educational opportunities did not fall away.”

As with other staff, Max found himself leading in surprising ways. “I remember leading the caravan of UWC-USA vehicles from Highlands to Glorieta,” Max said. “I was the ‘pilot car’ and had 40 vehicles following me including our entire fleet of UWC-USA buses full of students, Las Vegas Public Schools buses, and employees in personal vehicles. The cars and buses stretched close to two miles on Interstate 25. It was the highest stakes driving of my entire life!”

UWC-USA students and staff are deeply grateful for the support we receive each year – we recognize that our community is strong because of the generosity of so many alumni and friends around the world. We know that thousands of alumni, parents of alumni, and friends of the school cheer us on as we work to become the changemakers and leaders the world needs. Kurt Hahn famously said “There is more to us than we know. If we can be made to see it, perhaps for the rest of our lives we will be unwilling to settle for less.” Thank you for helping us see what we can become and the difference we can make!
