CELEBRATING THE POWER OF PLACE

From the Tate Library to the Alex Cohen Theater,

our ever-changing campuses abound with places

and spaces where students, faculty, and alumni have

left their mark over the years. The photographs in

this annual report pay tribute to them.

Rediscovering the Past, Planning for the Future

Our 125th anniversary year has been a year

of wonderful discoveries from the past and

planning for the future. Through the various

events of this jubilee year, we have had the opportunity

to revisit our history and renew our commitment

to the ideals of our founder, Felix Adler.

Alumni, parents, students, and friends of the

school have joined us in many of the year’s celebrations:

the 125th anniversary/back to school picnic,

homecoming, and the alumni documentary fi lm

festival in March and April. Most notable was the

three-month long photo exhibit at the New-York

Historical Society, “From the Classroom to the

World: Hine, Ulmann, Strand, Arbus, and the Ethical

Culture Fieldston School.” Our wonderful gala

on April 12, with a splendid reception at the photo

exhibit and a performance by the Wynton Marsalis

Quartet, was a fi tting culmination for the year.

As this anniversary year comes to an end, we

move into the beginning of one of the most important

projects the school has undertaken in years: the

construction of a new physical education and sports

center, the construction of a new academic building

to house an expanded middle school, and the renovation

of 20,000 square feet of existing space to create

a new center for music and the performing arts.

Our campus plan is now complete. The planning

for our capital campaign continues with energy. We

look forward to opening the campaign in the early

winter of 2005 and the buildings in 2007.

Over the past spring and summer we have engaged

in a series of meetings and conversations about

diversity, aimed at understanding our strengths and

our needs. Though we are one of the most diverse

independent schools in the city, we still have more

work to do. This coming year we have invited Ed

Blackwell to join us as senior advisor and consultant

on diversity; we have also arranged for fi ve on-site

visits by Enid Lee, the noted curriculum consultant

for equitable education. We look forward to moving

this issue forward successfully.

This past year the annual fund exceeded its

ambitious goal of $2.25 million. We are gratifi ed

by the continuing increase in the number of participants

in the fund. We still need more of you to

help us in this important endeavor. A gift of $1,000,

for example, is the equivalent of $20,000 in endowment

each year. A gift of any size strengthens our

sense of commitment as it recognizes the impact of

the school on your life.

We are challenged in an ongoing way to balance

the budget, manage the ever-increasing costs

of program, and meet the needs of our faculty and

staff for salaries that are equitable and competitive

without overburdening the already signifi cant

tuition costs. In our fi nancial reports you can get

a good sense of the needs we have and how we are

currently meeting them.

I want to thank in particular our board of trustees,

led by James A. Gara ’72 and Nina P. Freedman

’73, for their creative leadership and support. I want

to especially acknowledge James Gara’s service as

chair and co-chair of the board for the last fi ve years.

While he has completed his service as chair, he will

continue as a member of the board, contributing his

experience and insights to the work ahead.

Fall 2003: The school year got

off to a great start with our 125th

anniversary/back-to-school picnic,

complete with a community service

project in Van Cortlandt Park,

indoor fun and games, and birthday

cake. Homecoming 2003 delighted

both players and their fans.

and graduation photos by Stan Schnier; 125th

gala photos by Diane Silverman.

Winter/Spring 2004: The Big

Chill(out) party drew an enthusiastic

crowd. The 125th anniversary

celebration on April 12 started

with a reception at the photo

exhibit, “From the Classroom to

the World: Hine, Ulmann, Strand,

Arbus, and the Ethical Culture

Fieldston School.” A performance

by the Wynton Marsalis Quartet

capped off the evening. Fieldston

graduation on June 10 was cause for

celebration from students, family,

and faculty.

A Generous Community

In 2003–04, 2,831 members of the ECF community contributed $4,886,183 to the annual fund,

capital projects, fi nancial aid, enrichment programs, and the endowment, among other areas. ECF deeply

appreciates this investment in the future of the school.

We are particularly grateful to the following individuals, families, and members of foundations who chose

to express their commitment to the school with gifts of $25,000 or more. We thank them for their exemplary

leadership.

Ethical Culture Fieldston School gratefully acknowledges every individual who has supported the

Promises to Keep campaign in its quiet phase. All such donors will be recognized in the 2004-05

ECF Annual Report.

Our Family Tree: Consecutive Giving at ECF

A growing number of alumni, parents, grandparents, and other friends of ECF

have made a commitment to supporting the ECF annual fund every year. In

the donor lists throughout this annual report, you will see the ECF tree next

to the names of many members of our community, indicating those who have

contributed to the annual fund every year for at least 10 years. We give special

thanks to these donors for their steadfast support.

Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of donor lists. Should any

error have occurred, please call the offi ce of institutional advancement and

alumni at (212) 712-6245 with corrections.

Turning Thought to Action

This annual report gives us a formal opportunity

to thank everyone in our ECF community

for their valued support to the school

this past year, with gifts of their time, talent, and

treasure. As we have celebrated many events with

parents, alumni, friends, and students during this

125th year, support for ECF has been inspiring.

While it is expected that institutions celebrate

major anniversaries, we have discovered to our delight

unexpected surprises have emerged from our

own celebrations. Foremost among them, was the

opportunity to look back through beautiful photographs

to the vision that the founder Felix Adler

had for our school and to see, from sepia to black

and white to color, the promise that lies ahead. In

remembering our roots, we celebrate Adler’s dream,

then radical, of creating a school where children of

all classes and races would learn about their capability

and responsibility to make the world a better

place. In going forward we will continue to celebrate

the vision of a school fi rmly tied to its core

values: progressive education, academic learning,

ethical learning.

Our 125th anniversary committee co-chairs,

John Beres ’81 and G. Angela Flemister Henry ’75,

reached out to an enthusiastic group of alumni,

staff, teachers, and parents for their volunteer hours.

Our photo exhibit and our 125th gala sub-committees

did the same. They all followed the example of

our 125th anniversary theme – “turning thought to

action” – and we salute them.

This past year our board and committees have

worked on such varied projects as issues of student/

faculty life, admissions and affordability, diversity,

master planning/architect selection, external and internal

communications, advancement, fi nance, and

more. Every committee member, whether a parent,

alumnus/a, faculty, friend, or trustee, gave hours in

service to the school, and we are all the grateful benefi

ciaries of their hard work.

As a board of trustees, we continue to focus on

charting a course that will enhance the mission of

ECF and extend its legacy. We look forward to the

implementation of key components of the strategic

plan as well as many wonderful new initiatives in

the years ahead. We are indebted to the collective

leadership of our administrative team, faculty, and

staff who continue to turn these exciting educational

thoughts into action every day.

We are so fortunate to be alumni and parents of

children in the school, who enjoy the support and

fellowship of this outstanding community! We look

forward to accomplishing great things together in

the coming year and beyond.

tion; they are encouraged to make choices

Advancing the Cause

In this, our 125th anniversary year, we are proud

to say that institutional advancement enjoyed a

remarkably successful year with many noteworthy

benchmarks. Of course numbers don’t tell the

whole story, but they do demonstrate the heart and

soul and commitment of the ECF community.

We exceeded our annual fund goal of $2.25

million, our most ambitious goal ever.

We engaged more of our community in participating,

most notably:

❖ Parent participation was up 16 percent,

thanks in part to the parent agent program, a

new initiative powered by 60 dedicated parent

volunteers in all three school divisions.

❖ Alumni participation was up 27 percent.

❖ Parents of graduates participation was up

29 percent.

❖ The senior class and their families raised

$95,636, which will go to the Class of 2004

Green Fund, to support the purchase of trees

and/or shrubbery and gardens for the Riverdale

campus.

Further, the institutional advancement committee

of the board of trustees worked successfully

to raise both the levels and numbers of major gifts

to the school. Our planned giving program is up

and running, aided immeasurably by Jed Bernstein

’76, John Firestone ’76, Samuel C. Florman ’49,

Sheila Goldman ’51, Arthur Sarnoff ’44, and Rosalind

Singer ’42, the advisory committee of our Felix

Adler Circle. The silent phase of our capital campaign

is going well, buoyed by the efforts of senior

volunteers and staff. We are cheered by all of these

accomplishments, especially in such challenging

economic times.

At the heart of any strong advancement program

is the annual fund, and our community responded

generously. This support provides the

critical bridge between what it costs to educate each

student and the revenues generated by tuition and

endowment income. Tuition – full tuition – covers

only about 80 percent of the cost of educating each

ECF student, and we rely heavily on the annual

fund to make up the difference.

Special events afforded our community the opportunity

to participate in fundraising and enjoy

themselves in the process. Led by Jill Hayman, Peter

Mayer, and Michael Nott, the P&T sponsored

a wonderful fun-raiser and fund-raiser in January.

The Big Chill(out) party was enthusiastically attended

and raised $24,702 for the Annual Fund.

Then there was the 125th anniversary gala, attended

by over 800 and enjoyed by all (see photos on

page three) which raised close to $150,000.

We salute each and every individual who contributed

to the annual fund. As you review the lists

of names in this report, you will notice we have

taken special care to recognize those who have given

to the fund over the last 10 years or more. We are

particularly proud to honor this loyalty.

Staying on Track

We are once again ending our fi scal year

2003–2004 with a balanced budget. We

are proud to say that in so doing, we have

been able to fund the objectives we have set out for

this year while keeping our tuition at a lower level

than most of our peer schools. We have maintained

faculty compensation in the top tier of our competitor

schools and met our contractual obligations with

the faculty union. We have been able to fund faculty

professional development and mentoring programs,

fi nancial aid and student tutoring programs, staff

development initiatives, our ongoing commitment

to schoolwide diversity, as well as renovations and

improvements to our existing facilities.

I continue to be amazed by the generosity of

this community. Our various volunteer committees

are dedicated fi duciaries who invest enormous

time and energy to provide support and guidance

towards careful planning and thoughtful execution.

Our fi nance committee, chaired by parent John

Masten, plays an integral role in our fi nancial budgeting

and planning process. Our investment committee,

chaired by parent Mack Rossoff, thoughtfully

monitors our endowment’s performance, and

as a result, our portfolio has generated impressive

returns. Our audit committee, chaired by parent

Peter Joseph, provides the oversight necessary to ensure

that we continue to be fi scally responsible. Our

buildings and grounds committee, chaired by Brad

At the same time, the generosity of our benefactors

has signifi cantly helped us meet our objectives

and fund some of the renovation work we have

recently completed on both campuses this year. At

Fieldston, we reconstructed the Quad steps and restored

some of the external façade; we refurbished

the fi rst fl oor of the Tate Library to enable a more

attractive display of student art work. We have

newly renovated classrooms in Science (Bio Lab)

and Art (Draw Lab). The administration building

has new bathrooms, and the faculty room has been

refurbished. We have also created an offi ce for our

Fieldston News student staff. At Fieldston Lower,

we have beautiful new kindergarten classrooms and

bathrooms. At Ethical, we have refurbished our

P&T (Reception) room, reconstructed our elevator,

totally renovated our 6th fl oor gym, and replaced

the windows in the cafeteria, and installed signage

throughout the building. Much credit is due to

our administrative and maintenance staff, including

Gene Kivlan and Joe Piselli, for their continued

dedication and hard work.

This year we have made considerable progress

on a project of historic proportions: the

expansion of the campus at Fieldston. This

initiative, unanimously endorsed by the board

of trustees, responds to a number of imperatives

in the school’s strategic plan, including the

establishment of an expanded 6-8 grade middle

school and expanded and enhanced facilities for

academics, arts, and athletics.

Two years ago, after a rigorous search, we

retained our major building partners: the

architectural fi rm, Cooper, Robertson & Partners;

the construction management fi rm, Tishman

Corporation; and the project management

fi rm, Levien & Company. During the past year,

we engaged our educators, parents, and students

in the completion of program planning to ensure

a building design responsive to the school’s programmatic

needs. We formed a “green committee”

who will make sure that our buildings are not

only environmentally friendly, but will provide

learning opportunities for our students and our

community at large. We also formed a safety

committee who will work with our retained

site safety consultants to ensure that we are, at

all times possible, proactively responsive to our

community’s safety needs. We also retained the

law offi ces of Claudia Wagner to help us reach

out to our neighbors and our local offi cials to

share our plans and communicate our good will.

This past summer, the design documents and

related cost estimates were completed. These are

scheduled to be reviewed by our board of trustees

early this fall. The board will deliberate on the

extent of the work that we will undertake and

how we will endeavor to fi nance this undertaking.

Presently, the overall plan calls for work

to begin over the coming winter recess, with

heavy construction taking place in the summer

of 2005. Our goal is for the new middle school

building and related renovated program space to

open in the fall of 2007, and for the new athletic

facilities to open in the winter of 2006.

There is no question that a project of this

scope is a formidable challenge. The weak economy

and uncertain times continue to challenge us.

Given our track record, however, I believe these

challenges will continue to unite the community

and strengthen its commitment to ECF and its

strategic goals. I am, once again, grateful to those

who have helped us achieve our objectives.

Donors to the ECF Annual Fund

A vital source of support for the Ethical Culture Fieldston School, the

Annual Fund serves as a means for alumni, parents, and friends to sustain

and advance the mission of ECF. Gifts to this fund go directly into the

day-to-day operating budget of the school, thus helping to bridge the

approximately 20 percent gap between income from tuition and the actual

cost of educating each student.

The Felix Adler Meditation Rock, to

the left of Fieldston Lower, was Adler’s

chosen place to refl ect and, at one time

in its history, had a plaque.

12

By the arch to the Quad are two plaques:

one to Felix Adler, founder of the school;

the other (above) to John Lovejoy Elliott,

a leader in the Ethical Culture Society

and ECS rector from 1933 to 1942.

I

HAD TO CATCH MY BREATH when I fi rst re-entered Fieldston as an adult

– and a parent – a few years ago. I found to my great relief an institution

that had held to the basic intellectual and civic missions that had helped

shape me as a child. But I also saw before me a contemporary place, a school

that was operating squarely in the here and now, challenging itself to make

its ideals live effectively in the current world. This self-refl ection and renewal

mirrors what a Fieldston education is all about.”

I’D SAY it was the Ethical philosophy and the faculty, parents, and kids that it attracts

that initially appealed to us. As our daughter, Kate, has developed through

her early grades, we have seen, fi rsthand, the results of this ethic. The ECF community

continues to strive to update and improve, and we are proud to be a part of this

and to be able to contribute to this growth in every way that we can.”

WHEN OUR DAUGHTER transferred in tenth grade from a smaller

all-girls school, we had some concerns about her (and us) adjusting

to a much larger environment, but Fieldston turned out to be very

accessible at every level and the transition was made easy. That’s just one

of the things we have come to admire in the school, but there is much more

– we love its rich, diverse curriculum, wonderful, involved teaching staff,

expert college advisory, and New York’s greatest girls volleyball team and

coach!”

— Lori and Alexandre H. Chemla, current parents

TRIBUTE GIFTS

Each year alumni, parents, and friends make commemorative

gifts to ECF. Many of these gifts celebrate a signifi cant

occasion in the life of a loved one, friend, or colleague, the

birth of a child, a wedding, an anniversary, a graduation, a

new job, a promotion, or a retirement. No matter the occasion,

such gifts honor people in a thoughtful, generous way.

Memorial gifts perpetuate the memory of the deceased while

also helping to enhance the quality of an ECF education.

Ethical Culture Principal

Committed to academic excellence, progressive education, and

ethical learning, the Ethical Culture Fieldston School has sustained

the integrity of Adler’s original mission for over 125 years.

Founded in 1878, it now serves 1,600 students on two campuses.

Its two lower school divisions, Ethical Culture and Fieldston

Lower, teach grades PreK through 6; Fieldston teaches grades 7

through 12. With a diverse community and a dedicated faculty

who encourage students to become independent thinkers and lifelong

learners, the school offers a rich and challenging curriculum

in the arts, sciences, and humanities.

Annual Fund Annual Fund gifts support the current year’s budget,

supporting every aspect of ECF’s operation: building maintenance,

library acquisitions, scholarships, faculty and staff salaries, thus

helping to bridge the 20 percent gap between income from tuition

and the actual cost of educating each student.

Capital Gifts Capital Gifts are used to strengthen ECF’s endowment,

for signifi cant building renovations or for permanent funds

that will be invested to produce income for essential expenditures.

Enabling ECF to accommodate the latest technologies and teaching

initiatives, capital gifts support the building of new facilities and the

renovation of existing ones. Recent examples include the painting

of hallways and the renovation of three classrooms at Fieldston

Lower, renovation of the photography lab and gymnasium at

Fieldston, and the installation of a bench on the Quad in memory

of Jonathan Burchell ’91.

Capital Campaign A major fundraising campaign, conducted

over several years time, to raise substantial funds to fi nance major

endeavors such as construction, renovation, endowment, or

fi nancial aid.

Endowed Gifts Endowed gifts support academic and program

excellence in perpetuity. The principal of each endowed gift

is preserved while its earnings benefi t students, faculty and

programs.

Endowment A permanent fund that is invested to produce

income to meet the day-to-day needs of the school or to address

needs as they arise. As of June 30, 2004, ECF’s endowment was

$50,614,000.

Gifts in Kind Some alumni, parents, and friends donate thoughtful

non-monetary gifts, which otherwise would have to be purchased

by the school. Examples include computers, a microscope, a

camera, printing services, and printers.

Gifts of Real Estate, Life Insurance, Retirement Plans, IRAs,

and Personal Property Making gifts of primary residences,

vacation homes, land, other personal property as well as life

insurance, retirement plans, or IRAs can be quite advantageous to

both donors and the school.

Gifts of Securities Donors wishing to give long-term securities

(securities held for at least one year) will fi nd the tax advantages

particularly benefi cial. Gifts of long-term securities entitle donors

to a tax deduction for the gift, up to a maximum of 30 percent of

your adjusted gross income with a fi ve-year carry-over period for

the excess.

Matching Gifts Gifts which are doubled or even tripled because

foundations and corporations match gifts to ECF made by their

employees. We receive approximately $30,000 in matching gifts to

the Annual Fund. Each year nearly 7,500 companies nationwide

support the philanthropic interest of their employees, so check with

your company and obtain a matching gift form

Named Funds and Bequests Alumni, parents and friends

establish named funds to express their support of many schoolwide

disciplines and their belief in faculty development, excellence in

teaching, curriculum innovation, fi nancial aid and scholarships, the

importance of books, fi ne and performing arts, ethics and overall

academic excellence. Such funds are often created in honor of one’s

family name, a relative, or a beloved ECF teacher or administrator.

Alumni and friends also use their wills to make generous future

gifts to ECF while still benefi ting their loved ones.

Participation A measure, usually expressed in percentages, of how

many donors in a specifi c group have made gifts. Corporations,

foundations, and others view a high percentage as a high vote of

confi dence in the school from those who know and love it best.

Planned Gifts Your will can be a creative vehicle for making

thoughtful gifts to benefi t ECF along with your loved ones and

others. Bequests are exempt from both federal and state estate

taxes and any limitation on deductions. Donors can bequeath

an unrestricted gift, endowed fund, or scholarship to benefi t the

school for years to come.

Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid. – Almost Famous

Programmatic Gifts Supporting many schoolwide initiatives

essential to the ECF community, programmatic gifts include

the Fieldston Enrichment Program (FEP), Young Dancemakers,

the Summer Service Institute (SSI), learning styles, community

services, and tutoring.

Restricted Gifts Given by donors to specifi c purposes such as a

designated classroom renovation, a precise part of the academic

program.

Sixth Form Gift Traditionally given to the Ethical Culture

Fieldston School by parents in honor of their children and made in

the name of the graduating class. Some of the past gifts have been

to the Tate Library, Financial Aid, a Memorial Scholarship and the

Fieldston Quad Landscaping Project

Tribute Gifts Every year alumni, parents, and friends make

commemorative gifts to ECF. Many of these gifts celebrate a

signifi cant occasion in the life of a loved one, friend or colleague

– the birth of a child, a wedding, an anniversary, a graduation, a

new job, a promotion, or a retirement. No matter the occasion,

such gifts honor people in a thoughtful, generous way. Memorial

gifts perpetuate the memory of the deceased while also helping to

enhance the quality of an ECF education.

Unrestricted Gifts Allow ECF to use donors’ gifts to meet the

school’s most immediate needs. Categories of unrestricted gifts

include the following: ECF’s greatest needs; fi nancial aid and student

life; faculty enrichment; technology; campus improvements.
