SABIS ® EDUCATIONAL SYSTEMS, INC. U.S. ANNUAL REPORT 2010 – 2011 Helping Students Achieve Their Full Potential SABIS® Educational Systems, INC. is an education management organization that has been successfully managing schools in the U.S. since 1985. The organization owns the exclusive rights in North America, South America, and Europe to the SABIS® Educational System, a comprehensive, dynamic system that provides students with a strong academic foundation, fosters academic achievement, and effectively prepares them for success in school, college, and beyond. In 1985, the first school managed by SABIS® Educational Systems, INC. was established in Minnesota and set out to provide a high-quality education to students in the U.S. Sparked by the success achieved by its students and driven to make a difference in the lives of more students, the organization branched out into the public sector in 1995 and started its first public charter school in Springfield, Massachusetts. Through its commitment to the ongoing development and refinement of its educational system, a system that dates back 125 years, SABIS® Educational Systems, INC. has continued to expand its management of schools in the U.S. In the 2010-11 academic year, over 6,700 students were educated in 13 schools – nine public charter schools, three schools under license, and one private school – implementing the dynamic SABIS® Educational System. These schools provided students with a high-quality education and helped them achieve their full potential. The importance of a high-quality education and the commitment to helping all students achieve their full potential are characteristics shared among all the schools that are members of the global SABIS® School Network. This network of schools currently educates thousands of students in schools in 15 countries on four continents.

Much of the world was held captive on a roller-coaster ride that unsettled even the most avid thrill seekers. One aspect, however, remained constant, offering solace to the weary and hope to the realistic––the absolute value of a solid education. The privileged and powerful position of education over the past few years reflects its potential to yield a profitable return regardless of the economic, geographical, or political landscape, demonstrating that these words ring true: “An investment in education is an investment in the future.” This is supported by the latest studies showing that the lifelong earning potential of a high school graduate versus high school dropout is 40% greater. Similarly, a college graduate will make approximately $1 million more in lifelong earnings over someone with only a high school diploma. At SABIS® Educational Systems, INC., we have long understood the absolute value of a solid education and all the promise it can provide. Currently managing operations in the U.S. in eight charter schools and one private school and licensing our system to an additional four schools, SABIS® Educational Systems, INC. benefits from a well-established educational system that is backed by over 125 years of history and development. Drawing on an international, collegepreparatory curriculum, targeted books and exams, effective teaching methods, an active Student Life Organization, and performance-driven IT systems, the SABIS® Educational System consistently provides students with the knowledge and skills they need to be successful––successful in closing the achievement gap, successful in becoming productive members of society, and successful in gaining admission to college. The success of our program, and thus our students, is reflected in this 2010-11 U.S. Annual Report for SABIS® Educational Systems, INC., which I invite you to read. In addition to demonstrating our ongoing success, the report also includes a look back at SABIS®’s 125-year history and a look into the future of a new SABIS® IT product under development. As we look to the future, it is certain that the world will continue to experience ups and downs. For us at SABIS® Educational Systems, INC., the value of a solid education remains the one true constant, as constant as our commitment has been to education over the past 125 years and as constant as our commitment will continue to be far into the future. Regards, Carl Bistany SABIS® President U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 Letter from the V.P.––U.S. Operations Dear Stakeholder, We are once again pleased to share with you our annual report, highlighting the schools’ achievements during the 2010-11 academic year and outlining what we have in store in academics, technology, and other areas of research and development. The 2010-11 academic year marked the 125th year of the founding of the first school in the SABIS® School Network. In 1886, our two visionary founders––Louisa Proctor and Tanios Saad––set out on a mission to close the achievement gap. Back then, the gap was between the genders. Today, the gap is between Caucasian and minority students – and it is widening nationwide. John F. Kennedy said, “Children are the world‘s most valuable resources and its best hope for the future.” At SABIS® we hold nothing more sacred than the value of our students’ time, recognizing that they are the world’s most precious resource, and that their time with us is finite and scarce. Our entire educational system is built on the principle of maximizing how much and how well our students learn per each unit of time. Thus, we are in relentless pursuit of continual improvement and increased efficiency, helping our students achieve their full potential. 4 In 2010-11, SABIS® member schools provided their students with outstanding educational opportunities. The students’ performance on external exams––state tests and Advance Placement exams ––continues to improve. From Holyoke and Springfield in Massachusetts to Phoenix, Arizona, and passing through Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Georgia, and Louisiana, our students have been outperforming their peers, significantly narrowing the achievement gap, and gaining acceptances to colleges and universities of their choice. We are managing to help our students achieve their full potential through the value added that our program, our methodology, and our unique Student Life Organization bring to each student attending a SABIS® member school. As we enter our 126th year, we are even more determined to keep raising the bar and to take our students to ever greater heights of academic performance. I thank the staff members in the SABIS® School Network for the dedication and the commitment that they demonstrate every day in the service of our students. Kind Regards, George F. Saad U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 SABIS® Celebrates 125 Years of Education 5 From a school in a small town in Lebanon to a worldwide school network, SABIS® has come a long way since its founding in 1886. Fueled by a mission to change the world through education and backed by a dynamic educational system, SABIS® has been at the forefront of education for 125+ years and is responsible for helping thousands of students to reach their full potential. The 2010-11 academic year officially marked the organization’s 125th anniversary and resulted in numerous celebrations across the global SABIS® School Network throughout the year. From tree-planting ceremonies to concerts, SABIS® students, staff, and supporters were engaged in festivities that honored the organization’s contribution to the field of education for more than a century. At SABIS® schools, students had the chance to put the skills and knowledge they acquired through the empowering SABIS® Student Life Organization (SLO®) to good use and coordinate 125th anniversary events for their respective school communities. The celebrations held at U.S. SABIS® schools included a “Grand Style-Red Carpet Gala Affair” organized by Linwood Public Charter School (LPCS) in Shreveport, Louisiana. Taking place during the school’s Student Life period, LPCS students and staff joined in the 125th celebration which included speeches and festive dances held in the school’s elaborate gymnasium-turnedballroom. In Minnesota at The International School U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 of Minnesota (ISM), located in a Minneapolis suburb, celebrations included an event at which the upper school orchestra showcased their musical prowess, plus featured inspiring speeches, a tree-planting ceremony, and the inauguration of the school’s Memorial Peace Garden. Like LPCS and ISM’s celebrations, each SABIS® school in the U.S., commemorated the organization’s milestone in its own unique way to honor SABIS®’s 125-year history. As the 125th anniversary year wound down at the end of the 2010-11 academic year, SABIS® took the opportunity to host a final, large-scale celebration. Fittingly, a grand gala dinner was organized in Lebanon, where the organization took root more than a century ago. SABIS® U.S. school directors and their worldwide counterparts gathered there with more than 800 guests including government ministers, partners, alumni, and supporters. SABIS®’s unwavering commitment to change the world through education and provide students with the resources needed to reach their full potential has helped it thrive in this rapidly changing world. With a rich history of success and challenges, including withstanding two world wars, famine, and a devastating civil war, SABIS® remains at the forefront of education because of its unwavering determination to provide students with a world-class education. SABIS ILT : A Look into the Future ® TM Over the past decade, technology has found its way into more and more classrooms around the world. Always on the cutting-edge of development, particularly IT development, SABIS® has been engaged in research, development, and design of educational software and systems for more than 60 years with the aim of helping students achieve their full potential. From computerized testing centers to an online Internet portal that allows students to access homework and assessment reports, technology plays a key role in the SABIS® Educational System. The organization uses information technology (IT) to optimize learning, improve academic results, enhance teacher efficiency, and reinforce communication across the schools in the global SABIS® School Network. These efforts are made possible through the organization’s commitment to operate in line with international standards. Evidence of this can be seen in the recently awarded, internationally-recognized ISO 9001:2008 certification, making SABIS® one of the 350,000 companies worldwide to achieve this feat. 6 One of the exciting, upcoming products to be released by SABIS®’s IT team is the Integrated Learning and Testing (ILT) system. Currently in the pilot phase at two SABIS® member schools, ILT will soon provide all SABIS® students with a innovative way to learn–– through individual, interactive computer software that provides teachers with real-time feedback during class. Specifically, a class of students and their teacher will all be equipped with computers or tablets through which teachers can provide students with lesson information that appears on their screen. This information is then followed by a related question to be answered or problem to be solved. Students’ answers are then submitted and sent to the teacher, who is able to immediately see a summary of how the students performed as a whole and individually. This information helps the teacher determine whether to proceed, re-explain, or assign more practice problems, making certain no student is left behind. The information from each class is saved and integrated in each students’ record and can help teachers track progress and ultimately help students reach their full potential. SABIS® places a high value on being a leader in the use of technology in education and strives to provide first-rate, innovative software and services to its global network of schools and students. ILT, which is only one example of the many IT tools and systems SABIS® develops each year, will soon be implemented across the global network with the aim of helping students acquire the knowledge they need to excel in college and beyond. U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 7 SABIS® U.S. Schools Effectively Closing the Achievement Gap Overseeing the operation and development of nine charter schools and one private school in the U.S. in the 2010-11 academic year, SABIS® Educational Systems, INC. actively works to make a difference in students’ lives and to help them achieve their full potential. To this end, SABIS® schools implement an educational system that includes a comprehensive, international curriculum, proven teaching methods, targeted textbooks, frequent assessment, cutting-edge IT tools, and the empowering SABIS Student Life Organization®. Along with providing high-quality education that meets the demands of a rapidly changing world, SABIS® is engaged in tackling the disparities in academic achievement between different ethnic and socioeconomic groups. Results from two SABIS® U.S. charter schools––the SABIS® International Charter School (SICS) in Springfield, Massachusetts, which began operation in 1995, and the International Academy of Flint (IAF), in Flint, Michigan, which opened in 1999––show the organization‘s success in effectively closing the achievement gap. With a total combined enrollment of nearly 2,800 students, of U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 which 76% are considered minorities, these schools are dramatically raising the standard of education in the communities they serve by consistently closing the achievement gap. Using the results of 35 Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) and Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) exams administered to SICS and IAF students in grades 3-11 during the 200910 academic year, these two SABIS® member schools, combined, closed the gap between African-American and Caucasian students on 13 of the 35 tests (37%). Furthermore, the state exam results indicate that the schools significantly narrowed the gap between African-American and Caucasian students at their respective schools, in comparison to their state, on 20 of the 35 tests (57%). Therefore, on 94% of the tests, these two SABIS® charter schools either closed the gap completely or had narrower gaps than the states in which they operate. In addition to narrowing the ethnic achievement gap, SICS and IAF were also successful in narrowing the gap between economically-disadvantaged students and their more privileged peers. At SICS, the socioeconomic gap average is 12% in comparison to a gap of 32% in the state. At IAF, the school’s economically-disadvantaged students outperform the state’s in 12 of 14 exams. SICS and IAF, like the seven other SABIS® U.S. charter schools, are effective in meeting a wide variety of student needs through their implementation of the proven SABIS® Educational System. Regular assessment, high expectations for student performance and behavior, and involvement in enriching activities and events coordinated by Student Life all contribute to the success of students at these schools, which are dedicated to closing the achievement gap and helping students achieve their full potential. African-American-White Achievement Gaps: 2010 MCAS Average gap between Massachusetts’ AfricanAmerican students and their White peers: 30%. Average gap between the SABIS® International’s AfricanAmerican students and their White peers: 15%! African-American––White Achievement Gaps: 2010 MEAP The average AfricanAmerican/White Achievement Gap in Michigan is 23 percentage points. The average AfricanAmerican/White Achievement Gap at SABIS®’s IAF is 9 percentage points! U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 8 SABIS® Professional Development Institute: ® Helping SABIS Staff Achieve Their Full Potential 9 Helping SABIS® students achieve their full potential calls for dedicated, experienced, and knowledgeable staff who ensure that each student is on track toward achieving academic success. As a result, teachers in SABIS® member schools are supported to remain up-to-date on the latest practices, plus enjoy ongoing opportunities to sharpen their skills or become proficient in new ones. To promote high standards among new and existing employees in member schools across the SABIS® School Network, the organization draws on the SABIS® Professional Development Institute. The institute is responsible for developing each training program, which includes comprehensive, original training materials, facilitator handbooks, and DVD courses for follow-up training. At the end of the 2010-11 academic year, the institute marked the completion of its second year in operation as a full-fledged training unit. The institute is actively engaged in equipping SABIS® schools and headquarters with training programs, materials, and tools that not only strengthen team members’ expertise, but also support the strategic growth of the organization. With more than 5,000 teachers employed in member schools throughout the SABIS® School Network, teacher training programs are a key offering of the institute. One such program is the institute’s teacher on-boarding training in which new and returning teachers from around the global network receive universal training on an annual basis. The two-week program—which includes one week solely for new teachers and the following week that brings together new and veteran teachers—provides new teachers with the fundamentals including general information about SABIS®, its philosophy, the SABIS® Educational System, and background on the school relevant to the teacher, among many other topics. For both teaching and non-teaching staff, there are a variety of programs offered through the institute including soft skills training workshops, which range from effective teamwork to stress management workshops as well as various software and technology-related trainings. Additionally, the SABIS® Professional Development Institute is constantly engaged in developing new training programs, which ultimately equip teachers to be able to effectively help students achieve their full potential. “The SPDI teacher on-boarding training program equipped me with everything I needed to know about my work obligations, the school, and the organization I was joining. I feel the program was vital in helping me succeed in my role as a teacher in a SABIS® school.” – Teacher in a SABIS® Member School U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 SABIS Student Life Organization®: Anti-Bullying Program Bullying has become more prevalent across most schools worldwide and can have major emotional and physical consequences for the students involved. While many schools take a reactive approach to the issue, SABIS® schools strive to maintain a safe and supportive environment through a proactive, team approach that focuses on prevention and awareness of bullying. 10 In SABIS® schools, the administration, faculty, and staff play an important role in creating a positive, healthy learning environment. SABIS® students also put in their own share of hard work. In particular, during the 2010-11 academic year, SABIS® schools in the U.S. tackled bullying through their respective SABIS Student Life Organizations® (SLO®). SLO® is a studentled society that plays an integral role in all SABIS® schools’ day-to-day operations, offering students an opportunity to play a role in their education by becoming prefects, or through participation in clubs, events, and extracurricular activities. Positioning students to make a difference in their school community, each school’s SLO® launched a four-step AntiBullying Program to prevent bullying and bring awareness to the issue. The first step in the SLO® Anti-Bullying Program is carried out by ambassador prefects, who inform new students about the school’s zero-tolerance policy toward bullying. Ambassador prefects make new students aware of their responsibility to report any bullying they encounter. The next step hinges on maintaining anti-bullying awareness throughout the year by organizing various programs and campaigns. This is achieved through SLO® prefect-to-student discussions, advising lessons, bulletin boards, guest speakers, and all-out anti-bullying campaigns. U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 11 Coordinating a grand-scale event is the third step of SLO®’s Anti-Bullying Program. Once per term, a major school-wide event is held to promote the benefits of a supportive and caring campus community that does not and will not tolerate bullying. U.S. SABIS® schools coordinated several events at their respective schools during the 2010-11 academic year, including skits and plays with a focus on anti-bullying. The final step in the program is to identify the students being bullied as well as those who are prone to bully in order to provide them with help and attention. U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 Through the SLO® Anti-Bullying Program, SABIS® U.S. schools were successful in raising awareness and preventing bullying during the 2010-11 academic year. As such, students benefitted from secure and supportive campuses that created an environment in which they could achieve their full potential. Powered by SABIS® SABIS® is committed to making a difference through education and helping all students achieve their full potential. In order to expand the number of students who can benefit from receiving a high-quality education through the SABIS® Educational System, the organization launched a licensing program in 2006. In the 2010-11 academic year, three U.S. schools licensed the system and were “Powered by SABIS®”. In the 2010-11 academic year, Bushwick Ascend Charter School in New York joined the existing “Powered by SABIS®” schools and opened its doors to 200+ students in Kindergarten to Grade 2, with plans to expand one grade level each year until it is a full K-12 program. Bushwick Ascend Charter School joined Brooklyn Ascend Charter School and Brownsville Ascend Charter School, both part of a network of schools managed by Ascend Learning, a non-profit charter school management organization. Cumulatively these three schools helped approximately 900 students—from predominantly low-income, minority populations—to achieve their full potential in the 2010-11 year. 12 Schools “Powered by SABIS®” benefit from a range of cutting-edge proprietary software, tools, and services that prepare students for success in college and beyond. The resources provided to licensee schools include the dynamic SABIS Academic Monitoring System®, used for gap analysis, and the comprehensive SABIS® curriculum aligned to state requirements, plus induction training for school staff and ongoing support to the school, ensuring that students have the means to achieve their full academic potential. To support the growth of its network of licensees in the 201011 academic year, SABIS® devoted time and expert resources to develop tools that help new licensee schools successfully implement the SABIS® Educational System. In 2010-11 licensee schools were also provided ongoing access to an online portal that allows them to share materials and view operational guidelines.

A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 13 Social Responsibility: Making a Difference SABIS® is firmly committed to making a difference through education as well as through outreach efforts that benefit the greater community. By participating in a multitude of community service activities organized at SABIS® schools each year, students are helped to reach their full potential. Through these outreach efforts, students have the chance to develop leadership skills, learn to empathize with others, and realize that the welfare of their local community is a shared responsibility, all of which enables them to become active and responsible global citizens. Through the SABIS Student Life Organization® in 201011, students in SABIS® schools in the U.S. gave back in a variety of ways that made a significant difference in their communities and abroad. At The International School of Minnesota (ISM) in Minneapolis, students participated in several service projects including an eight-day outreach trip to the Dominican Republic with ImpactLives, a Minnesotabased non-profit organization. Students and chaperones contributed to the Caribbean nation by assisting in the building of homes and delivering thousands of premade U. S . A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 1 0 - 1 1 meals to the needy. In addition to the service trip, ISM raised thousands of dollars for its “ISM Against Hunger” campaign that funded meals for Twin Cities’ families during the holidays. In Phoenix, Arizona, at SABIS® International School (SIS) students raised money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society by collecting pennies and other change for the “Pennies for Patients” campaign. SIS students also coordinated their own food drive and volunteered their time at the St. Mary’s Food Bank as well as took part in St. Joseph’s “Hike for the Homeless” fundraiser. In Michigan, at the International Academy of Flint (IAF), students engaged in active recycling campaigns on campus. Additionally, IAF students participated as bell ringers for the Salvation Army, distributed food and clothing at a community Thanksgiving dinner, and assisted in community clean-up efforts. Nearby in Saginaw, the International Academy of Saginaw (IAS) joined more than 25,000 schools around the U.S. in the “Pennies for Patients” campaign and raised more than $300 to support young people who are sick with blood cancers such as leukemia. At the Holyoke Community Charter School (HCCS) in Holyoke, Massachusetts, students also participated in the “Pennies for Patients” campaign and collected an impressive $2,150. Moreover, HCCS students and staff members were involved in “Hoops for Heart”, raising funds through a basketball event, plus they took part in “Relay for Life”, a walk benefitting the American Cancer Society. Also in Massachusetts, at the SABIS® International Charter School (SICS) located in Springfield, students walked in “Relay for Life” and “Rays of Hope”, benefitting the American Cancer Society, and in its 13th year of giving back to the community, SICS has raised a cumulative total of $110,000+ for charities. A community-wide clean-up was initiated by students at the Mt. Auburn International Academy (MAIA) in Cincinnati, Ohio. They also coordinated a Thanksgiving canned food drive, participated in “Toys for Tots” during the holidays, and walked to raise breast cancer awareness. In Shreveport, Louisiana, at Linwood Public Charter School (LPCS), students tackled litter in their community and organized a large-scale clean-up, and at the Milestone SABIS® Academy of New Orleans (MSANO), efforts were made to collect food for those in need. This spirit of giving back at each and every SABIS® school is one that is also modeled and promoted by SABIS® on a corporate level. During the 2010-11 academic year, SABIS® donated nearly 14,000 textbooks to the Palm Tree Orphanage located in Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. SABIS® also sent 3,600 English and math textbooks to a small farm school— Klipfontein Primary School—located in Kenton-on-Sea in the Eastern Cape of South Africa. 14 Whether raising awareness or raising funds, SABIS® and SABIS® member schools strive on an ongoing basis to give back and support local and international causes.
