THE BISHOP STRACHAN SCHOOL 2014–15 COMMUNITY REPORT
And it all happens in relationship – between student and teacher,
student and student, parent and teacher, and an endless combination
of meetings of the mind, heart and spirit. What is the outcome of
these relationships? What changes over the course of one year at BSS
when people interact meaningfully with each other? The answer is lots.
Explore the 2014 –15 school year – made dynamic and memorable by
the contributions of our engaged, and engaging, community.

MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF SCHOOL
BSS experienced another dynamic year in 2014 –15. We introduced the Signature of a BSS Girl, began
laying plans for our upcoming 150th anniversary, broke ground on our state-of-the art facility upgrade and,
as always, supported the energy and creativity of our girls.
From a fundraising perspective, last year
was indeed one of our most successful.
Thanks to our donors we launched our
Intersection campaign in the fall and
achieved impressive gains throughout
the year, as you’ll read more about
within these pages.
The sheer volume of supporters from
our entire community of alumnae and
families has shown our girls that BSS
stands together and has faith in their
futures. It’s an important message that
has resonated throughout the school.
Groundbreaking individual donations
have had significant impact in getting us
closer to our goal, demonstrating a new
level of generosity from our community
and a reaffirmation of your confidence
in our mission.
That mission, of course, is to provide
BSS girls with a learning environment
that empowers them to be self-assured,
inquisitive, bold and compassionate.
We believe our girls benefit not only
from a program of powerful learning
that inspires them to achieve excellence
in all areas of academics, but encourages
them to learn beyond the classroom and
4
discover their individual traits, passions
and challenges.
You will find much has been accomplished in our quest to continually evolve
our program to better meet the needs of
our girls in this year’s Markers of Progress,
available online at bss.on.ca/report.
Thanks to our outstanding faculty,
staff and Senior Leadership Team, we
have moved forward on a variety of
critical initiatives. Their innovation has
been supported by the careful stewardship of financial resources. For that we
thank our Finance Committee, as well
as our highly committed Board of
Governors for their strategic oversight.
In her first year as Chair, Cindy TRIPP
’82, has been a decisive leader who has
embraced her responsibilities with great
skill and has been an exceptional source
of support and strength for me. I thank
both Cindy and our Board of Governors
for their commitment to the team at BSS
and the vision we share.
I also thank our Board of Trustees
and Trustee Chair, Rob Grundleger, also
in his first year in this role, at the same
time as he assumed the role of Campaign
THE BISHOP STRACHAN SCHOOL 2014–15 COMMUNITY REPORT
Chair. His presence as both a Governor
and a Trustee for the past 12 years make
him uniquely experienced to take on
the challenge of a major campaign in
addition to the responsibilities of the
Trustees. He has been an extraordinary
leader in this role and we are all very
grateful for his long-standing involvement with BSS.
BSS is an ambitious school and a
culture that strives to continuously
improve by questioning the ‘givens’ and
exploring new ideas. Thanks to this
shared vision, our students are thriving
in an atmosphere that supports taking
risks and challenging convention while
building a community that embraces
change and difference. I’m very proud
to be part of this exceptional school.
Deryn Lavell
Head of School
“The culture of
philanthropy at BSS
continues to deepen,
and there is no clearer
evidence of this than
the success of the
2014 –15 Annual Fund.”
MESSAGE FROM CHAIR, BOARD OF TRUSTEES
I am delighted to report on our Foundation activities from this past fiscal year. The energy of the Intersection
campaign, and the philanthropic spirit of the BSS community – parents, Old Girls, grandparents, friends
and staff – has been wonderful to see, and to be a part of.
A part of creating a sustainable institution
involves maintaining a strong endowment
focused on the long-term financial health
of the school. The Trustees of The Bishop
Strachan Foundation are entrusted with
funds endowed by our community of
visionary and progressive donors. The
BSS Endowment stands at $22.7 million
(as of June 30, 2015). The total value
of all funds at the end of June 2015 was
$23.8 million.
Over the course of the 2014–15 year,
the Investment Committee was diligent
in making adjustments to the asset
mix resulting in positive investment
performance. As a result, our endowment balance at the end of the fiscal
year represents a $1.3 million increase
over the previous year’s balance of
$21.4 million at June 30, 2014.
The culture of philanthropy at BSS
continues to deepen, and there is no
clearer evidence of this than the success
of the 2014–15 Annual Fund, which
surpassed $1 million for the first time
in the school’s history, and the successful
launch of our campaign, Intersection.
This year represented the first year
of the Public Phase of the campaign
and resulted in total fundraising of
$4.5 million in new gifts and pledges.
While the majority of gifts were received
in support of the building project,
donors also provided strong support for
both the Innovation Fund and
Community Fund.
I thank the BSS community for the
many and varied parts they have played
in this success. I wish to single out my
fellow Co-Chair, Richard Bradlow, of the
Development Committee, Development
Committee members, Campaign Cabinet
and Leadership Gifts Committee. I also
wish to thank those with whom we work
so closely, Head of School Deryn Lavell,
Chair of the Board of Governors Cindy
TRIPP ’82 and Moira Dossetor and her
team in the Office of Philanthropy and
Alumnae Relations.
Finally, on behalf of the Board of
Trustees I would like to congratulate
and thank the faculty, staff, parents,
students and Old Girls at BSS for a very
successful year.

Chair, Board of Trustees 2014–15

THE BISHOP STRACHAN SCHOOL 2014–15 COMMUNITY REPORT
At the core of any strong relationship is good communication – finding that place
where divergent opinions are welcome, and respected. Every BSS student in Junior,
Middle or Senior School – whether an introvert or extrovert – is encouraged to explore
her own thoughts, form a sound argument, consider all angles and present her
position confidently. This past year saw our girls work hard to meet high academic
expectations and standards, while they grew in other profound and important ways,
by finding – and using – their own strong voice.
GIRL
TALK
6
THE BISHOP STRACHAN SCHOOL 2014–15 COMMUNITY REPORT
Our 2014–15 Girl Talk awareness campaign resonated
with our community because BSS is all about conversations
that matter. Inspired by a Grade 11 student and her work
with the Moral Courage Task Force, Girl Talk encouraged
a new view of world problems and generated conversations
on the role we can all play in solutions. Throughout the
year, Girl Talk posters were displayed on campus, while
across the school, the volume was raised for both students
and staff on important issues of inclusion, social justice,
co-operation and collaboration.
You are welcome.
We put a high priority on making BSS a welcoming place –
so the new girl in Junior Kindergarten or Grade 9 feels
just as comfortable as the graduating student entering
her last year at BSS. Head of School Deryn Lavell started
the year with a call out to “lend a hand and help the
new members of our community get oriented and feel at
home.” Our student and adult Buddy Program volunteers
did just that, by reaching out to new families and students
and making their landing at BSS a little bit softer.
A Mission Systems Engineer at MDA Space Missions
(aka rocket scientist) and fierce advocate for women in
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math), Natalie
Panek was one of dozens of speakers who came on campus
this year to teach and inspire. Presented by The Joan
WHITTEN Miller ’76 Leadership Series, Natalie spoke
with students about the next generation of Canadian space
robotics and space exploration programs. Natalie is thanked
for her efforts by students Andrea GONZALEZ ’15 (left)
and Bezawit ALEMU ’15.

AT THE
INTERSECTION
“We were inspired to support the Campus Fund, one of Intersection’s three priorities. It’s clear
that the new spaces reflect the school’s powerful approach to teaching and they will serve
the future generations of BSS girls so well. We think it’s important to be involved and support
all of our children’s schools, which is why we have chosen to give equally to BSS and to our
son’s school. We’re proud to have our family’s names associated with this initiative.”
Todd Hargarten and Sarah Morgenstern, active volunteers for Intersection, members of the Leadership Gifts
Committee and parents of Tess, Class of 2018, and Laine, Class of 2022, students at BSS since Junior Kindergarten.
We publicly launched Intersection in October 2014 and, wow, did our
community get behind it! Why? Because our parents, alumnae, staff and
students believe in BSS and our vision for a bolder future, where science
meets art, mind meets spirit and past meets future. They met at the
intersection and set in motion a direct path to even more innovation in
girls’ education – raising over $25 million of our $35 million target, the
largest fundraising goal in our history.

“Our teachers are second to none because
they never stop learning. They tap into

POWERFUL
LEARNING
Junior School students perform for parents at May 2015 Momentum
This year, our Culture of Powerful Learning was humming at a high level –
moving deftly in and around obstacles, striving to support every kind of learner,
bringing girls out of their comfort zone into the place where real learning
happens, and shining a light on ways to think differently, take more responsibility,
include others, build things anew. When visitors to BSS talk about a palpable
energy on campus, they are feeling this culture, where girls are challenged in the
most valuable ways and where they come to understand they don’t have to do
everything, but they can do anything and do it with their whole heart and mind.
10
THE BISHOP STRACHAN SCHOOL 2014–15 COMMUNITY REPORT
After intensive research and collaboration, this year we
introduced the Signature of a BSS Girl, a framework to
help students develop specific attributes: curiosity,
self-awareness, grit, voice and leadership. These are viewed
through the lens of Growth Mindset when focused on the
self, and Ethical Citizenship when focused on the self in
relation to others. Think of it as a roadmap to inner space.
BSS Investigations&Expressions
Educators from around the province were on campus to learn from
our Junior School faculty about creating collaborative and vibrant
learning environments. From one participant: “I am so moved by
your relationships, listening to each other and the children, and
using that to move forward and promote relationships.”
LIFE IN BSS BOARDING
What better way to add to our multiplicity of viewpoints and voices than to
welcome 75 girls from 17 different countries around the world to BSS Boarding.
This year, BSS students explored
new dimensions of themselves by
experiencing some of the hundreds of
diverse co-curricular programs on offer.
A global mindset isn’t just our philosophy – it’s our practice.
Global experiences this year included trips for Grade 7–12 students
to Arizona, Ecuador (pictured here), Jamaica and Spain.
COMMUNITY
SPIRIT
“As the culmination of 17 years of involvement at BSS, we were thrilled to lead the
Class of 2015 Scholarship Fund initiative. Thanks to the incredible work of our
Co-Chairs, Bruce and Lisa Rothney, and Tony Gaffney and Dee Patterson, we were
able to leave a significant and lasting legacy in honour of our girls. We were inspired
by the dedication of the girls themselves, who achieved 100% participation in
fundraising, and overwhelmed by the support and generosity of our fellow Class of
2015 parents. This is a clear reflection of our gratitude for all that BSS has done for
our daughters, and our hope that future generations will have the same opportunities.”
Kate BERGHUIS Stevenson ’81 and John Stevenson, Co-Chairs of The Class of 2015 Scholarship Committee

THE BISHOP STRACHAN SCHOOL 2014–15 COMMUNITY REPORT
The spirit of sharing
Our volunteer achievements surpassed expectations in so many ways this
past year. Our Annual Fund hit (and exceeded) the $1 million mark for the
first time in our history, which would not have been possible without the
commitment of our parent volunteers. We thank all of our donors who made
the decision to support BSS and we thank the Stevenson family who, along
with their dedicated team of parent volunteers, led the way to raising an
unprecedented contribution of $178,000 from this year’s graduating class.
This donation goes directly to our Financial Assistance program to welcome
bright young girls to BSS who might otherwise not have the opportunity to
attend. What a generous, meaningful legacy.
The Parent Association had a tremendous
year, thanks to all BSS parents who shared
their time and talents to strengthen the BSS
community. As Co-Chairs of the Parent
Association Executive, Julie Crossland and
Marla Switzer led 42 parent members in the
important roles of welcoming new parents,
helped by the newly developed position
of Welcome Committee Chair, and friendraising, with a focus on parent socials.
We love our BSS parents!

As they always do, BSS staff got into Spirit Week this year.
It’s hard to tell who is more spirited – the girls or their teachers!
Senior School students Anya and Isabel count donations
the Philanthropy Council raised through this year’s theme days
and Spirit Week activities. An inspiring example of community
spirit, the Council supports a community in Mali and a child
in Kenya through Plan Canada, maintains a disaster relief fund
and supports local communities.
Every year for the last 30, we have welcomed a different author to BSS – each highly
accomplished and excited to share his or her insights – thanks to the communityminded Hill Canadian Authors Fund. This year, we welcomed Claire Battershill,
Canadian author of Circus and winner of CBC’s 2008 Literary Award for
Short Fiction, to help celebrate 30 years of the Fund. BSS thanks the visionary
support of the Hill family: Harry and Alverna Hill, Meredith HILL Robitaille ’76,
Megan HILL ’78, Marta HILL ’81, Paisley HILL ’85, Sarah CRANSTON ’09
and Grace Garvey, Class of 2018.

PROUD
HERITAGE
There’s excitement in the air as we draw closer to our 150th anniversary in 2017. BSS is that rare
combination of proud heritage and powerful future. And that’s because of our steadfast mission –
an unwavering commitment to girls and their boundless potential. This year, we celebrated
100 years at our campus, at the same time as we set out to transform it to align more closely with
our curriculum and culture. Around the world, 6,000 alumnae who spent their formative years
at BSS continue to pursue excellence while they stay in touch – some many decades later – with
their classmates and the place that set them off on their inspired journey.
The Quiet Room of our Student
Centre became a walk through history
this year as some of our Museum &
Archives imagery came to life on the
walls, displaying highlights of campus
life from our very first building in
1867 to our latest, set to open in 2017.

THE BISHOP STRACHAN SCHOOL 2014–15 COMMUNITY REPORT
Volunteer staff and students welcomed the wider
community in May to celebrate our 100th year at
our current campus, and what better way to do
that than to participate in Doors Open Toronto?
It was pretty exciting for the BSS community to watch the
Pan Am Games in Toronto this past summer. We had two staff
members carry the torch through communities before the
Games began, then three alumnae competing at the highest
levels, including badminton players Rachel HONDERICH ’14,
left (silver, singles and bronze, women’s doubles) and Alex
BRUCE ’08 (silver, mixed doubles and bronze, women’s doubles).
The transformation of the Great Hall for this year’s
Heritage Dinner was extraordinary. It set the scene
for a warm evening attended by many BSS community
members who braved the February cold to celebrate
our heritage and to reconnect.
This year’s Distinguished Old Girl Award was presented at Heritage Dinner
to author, health professional and stress management consultant Claire
JEPHCOTT McDerment ’56, who developed the Kids Have Stress Too! ®
Program, used by parents, childcare providers and teachers, and offered in
every province by local trainers and facilitators.
Our grads make us enormously proud. We shared their fears, failures, discoveries and
celebrations this year – all part of the learning process. And they experienced the school’s
struggles and successes as well. All of us at BSS understand that the most profound
growth comes from that place of risk, where you stretch yourself – without fully knowing
the outcome – until you discover strength and skills you might never have imagined.
We see the potential of our girls when they first step onto campus, and we see it realized
beautifully when they leave. If we’ve done our job right, their learning will never cease,
nor their desire to help themselves, and others, reach new heights.
GRADUATION

THE BISHOP STRACHAN SCHOOL 2014–15 COMMUNITY REPORT
2014–15 Head Girl and Valedictorian Hannah Lee takes a selfie of her and her fellow grads.
An enduring tradition, our graduates
perform just before they leave BSS for the
last time, as a student. (We know they’ll
be back on campus soon!) This was the
first year that all Grade 12s wore the white
uniform blazer (previously restricted to
Prefects). The move was a reflection of a
changing student leadership framework
to ensure a wider scope of leadership
opportunities for a greater number of
students and to demonstrate the value BSS
places on all expressions of leadership.
Class of 2015
This year’s graduation ceremonies were full of laughs and tears, and a host of
awards for outstanding student achievement. Here, BSS Alumnae Association
Chair Anne SMALLMAN Gallagher ’81 presents the law award to Jenny LI ’15.
Earlier in the year, Jenny was honoured for a perfect score on her Advanced
Placement (AP) Microeconomics exam in spring 2014. Of the 74,049 students
who wrote that exam, Jenny was one of only 15 students in the world to earn every
possible point (90 out of 90) on this exam – a remarkable and rare achievement.
For more student awards and achievements, see the BSS Markers of Progress in the
online version of this 2014–15 Community Report at bss.on.ca/report
The love of learning our students develop at BSS takes them far – not just in
their education, but in their lives. This year, we sent 115 young women off to
the very best universities around the world. Whether they started at BSS in
Junior Kindergarten or any other year, they have become an important part
of our history, and have built a strong, exciting future for themselves.

DONORS
Endowed and Named Funds
Many of our donors choose to establish endowed or named funds as a way to support school priorities in the medium
and long-term. Some of these funds support specific program areas, capital improvements or speaker series, but the
vast majority provide financial support for girls who would otherwise not have access to a BSS education. While some
donors have made endowed gifts which have an impact in perpetuity, some have chosen to make significant expendable gifts that are paid out immediately, and still others have preferred to make a blended gift that has an impact over a
series of years. The following list represents these donors who chose named funds as a means to expand the opportunities for BSS girls.* We thank all our donors for their foresight.
