The Dunham School Annual Report 2010-2011
Mission Statement The Dunham School seeks to provide students with the opportunity for college preparatory education set in the framework of Christian instruction and example. To this end, the school offers boys and girls rigorous academic instruction, challenging athletic and recreational activities, and creative expression in the fine arts. Each of these opportunities is ultimately grounded in a desire to educate the heart. The Dunham School Annual Report 2010-2011 Philosophy Statement (Click title to go to section) A Christian education emphasizes not simply Back Letter From The Chairman Of The Board acquiring knowledge, but attaining wisdom. 1 2Next Wisdom is knowledge shaped by the realization Letter From The Headmaster of where one stands in relationship to God and Breakdown Of School Revenue/Expenses 3 Fundraising Summary 4 Volunteer/Leadership Groups 5,6 The Nehemiah Fund - Dunham’s Annual Giving Campaign 7-12 Building Campaign Summary 13 Cord Of Three Strands Campaign 14-16 Capital Building Projects 17,18 Endowment 19,20 Ways To Give 21 Conclusion 22 by the recognition that the order and beauty seen in the universe is the product of the Creator’s hand. Wisdom is understanding that man is made in God’s image and is given the responsibility to be a good steward of His world. Yet wisdom cannot simply be taught in the classroom, but must be seen, then emulated. Photos courtesy of: Darlene Aguillard - Real Life Photography Coleman Partners Shane Lobue Letter From The Chairman Of The Board The 2010-2011 school year was an important one for our school. In preparation for the re-accreditation process in 2012, the Board of Trustees, administration, and staff examined the fiscal, academic, extra-curricular, and spiritual attributes of Dunham to assure that they are in keeping with our own mission and expectations and those required by state, regional, and national boards from whom we seek credentials. This look “inward” affirmed many of the initiatives begun as part of our school’s most recent strategic plan and targeted specific areas at Dunham which need further focus and refinement.

Curriculum mapping and individualized planning have resulted in improved student outcomes on semester reports, standardized tests, and college acceptances. New athletic and arts programs have greatly expanded the performance and developmental opportunities for our young men and women. Refinements in student service requirements, Chapel activities, and Bible curricula contribute to a more spiritually mature student body, having a deeper, wider, and more lasting impact on our community. As you can imagine, this thorough review also identified areas which need further improvement. To that end, academic and administrative councils continue to finetune curricula and teaching protocols for sciences, mathematics, English, and foreign languages at all grade levels. Honors and Advanced Placement (AP) classes are being refined, while additional enrichment programs also are being considered. » Next No school can remain static in today’s academic environment; least of all one like our Dunham School, dedicated to honoring the gifts given to us by our Creator God through achieving excellence in every aspect of school life. The board thanks each of you who, by your prayer, emotional and financial commitment, support our faculty’s efforts on behalf of our children and their future. We pray that God will greatly reward you and your families for your sacrificial giving in His name. God Bless You, Gary Gilbert Chairman of The Board Dunham’s Annual Report 2010-2011 Page 1 Back to Cover Letter From The Headmaster Dear Dunham Family, Each year, our Annual Report affords me the opportunity to thank everyone who has played a part in moving the mission of The Dunham School forward. From the volunteer in one of our many parent or alumni groups to the family who contributes to our Annual Giving Campaign all the way to those who support our building projects and endowment – each one of you makes a difference in the life of The Dunham School. As a tuition and gift-driven school, we cannot thank you enough. » Back I also want to praise Patty Hannaman and her staff, who manage the finances of our school on a daily basis, for their excellent work. Andy Farris and the Finance Committee of the Board also deserve recognition. The staff and the Finance Committee collaborate and communicate with one another extremely well. Andy often comes by after hours to visit with Patty, and I will see them at her desk, reviewing and checking the school’s financials in detail. This gives me much comfort; I hope it does the same for you. » Robert Welch, Headmaster Next Finally, I am thankful for the Auditor’s remarks in his report; every year he praises the excellence of our staff and confirms my own assessment of how blessed we are to have such dedicated and capable people. Please review this most recent report and call Patty, Andy, or me with any comments or questions. Most importantly, join me in thankfulness for the many blessings bestowed upon The Dunham School.

Participation in The Nehemiah Fund - Dunham’s annual giving campaign - signals that our school community has confidence in the mission of the school. These gifts support the people and programs that make Dunham special - including small class size, vital and inspiring academic programming, a talented faculty and personal attention. Nehemiah Fund dollars are spent during the current school year for the annual operation of the school. These tax-deductible donations enable Dunham to fulfill our mission by investing in people who in turn are investing in the lives of children. Faculty salaries and benefits are the largest expenditures in the operating budget. Your Nehemiah Fund gift helps to fund significant budgetary expenditures such as instructional programming resources, financial aid, technology, and physical plant operation. » Back Every member of the Dunham community is asked every year to support The Nehemiah Fund first. To ensure our success, we stress participation in The Nehemiah Fund first to support annual budgetary program needs, and then welcome addtional gifts as possible to benefit capital needs, endowment and special projects.

They do, however, provide the opportunity for talented teachers and engaged students to do exceptional things. New facilities foster new programs and new opportunities which helps our students better explore their gifts, talents and abilities; find their passions; and maximize their potential. Many of the recent capital improvements have been part of the school’s plan for more than 20 years but could not be implemented without financial support at the levels we have achieved during the past few years.
