FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL

A HISTORIC YEAR

for Avon

Greetings!

A

s we begin the 2020–21 school year with COVID-19 precautions in place, I would like to thank each of you for your steadfast support during this extraordinary and historic time at Avon Old Farms School. With your support, we successfully finished the Inspiring Boys, Building Men capital campaign, which exceeded our goal, raising $51.44 million. Your contributions have made a direct impact on Avon’s current students and future Avonians by allowing us to grow and develop new programs, provide top-notch facilities, increase financial aid, and support our faculty.

On June 29, Avon Old Farms lost a bold leader, treasured mentor, and beloved headmaster: George M. Trautman. The fall Avonian will feature a special tribute to George, who served our school for 50 years. The Trautman family and I look forward to arranging a celebration of George’s life on campus when COVID-19 restrictions ease and we can welcome the entire community back to Avon.

One thing I have learned over the past few months is that Avon is resilient and, together, we can adapt quickly under extreme circumstances. While I cannot predict what the future holds this year, I know we will remain dedicated to our core values while adapting to the current climate. I ask that you continue to support Avon Old Farms as we navigate this challenging time so we can maintain the exceptional educational experience for our boys and continue our tradition of raising young men with strong moral character.

Aspirando et perseverando, JIM DETORA P’12 HEAD OF SCHOOL

Your contributions have made a direct impact on Avon’s current students and future Avonians...

2019–2020 REPORT OF ANNUAL GIVING

FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD

RISING to the Times

Dear Members of the Avon Community,

A

von Old Farms School has not only risen to these challenging times but has also shone. As always, we held true to our motto as we aspired to do more and persevered to achieve more. In spite of the environment in which we found ourselves during the end of the school year, I’m pleased to report that our fiscal year ending on June 30, 2020, was conducted with exceptional focus and discipline around our school’s fiscal operations.

Fulfilling our mission requires a significant financial commitment to our students and faculty. Avon works to balance its operating budget each school year, managing expenses to be no greater than the income generated from tuition, annual fundraising, and the endowment. The 2019–2020 budget was particularly challenging to manage given the COVID-19 pandemic: for a significant portion of the year our young men were off campus, and normal operations had to be modified. Despite significant impacts on our tuition revenues and operating expenses, our staff did an impressive job managing the school’s operations, and we continued to receive exceptional support from our Avon family. Our attention to disciplined financial management coupled with the donations from our committed community members enabled our mission and our school to persevere through these challenging times.

Avon has always benefited from exceptional leadership, a legacy that began with our founder and has been passed from one school leader to the next. George Trautman lived that example from the moment he stepped onto campus in 1969 until well beyond his retirement as headmaster. On

June 29, George passed away. We will miss him. We’re fortunate that he helped ensure the Avon legacy could prevail in his successors. This was made clear with the exceptional job that Jim Detora has done in his first year as our head of school.

When Jim and I met during the search process and discussed possible challenges he might face and the need to be prepared for the unexpected, we did not foresee a global pandemic and its impact on our school. Yet Jim managed through the challenges and led our school to the right position. The board and I are confident we have the right leader with Jim Detora. We will continue to move forward as the best school for boys in the nation.

Over the last year, we continued to invest in our people, programs, and facilities. We also began the process of adjusting our facilities and programs in ways that will be necessary to operate in the new school year. We know that we need to take actions and invest wisely to maintain our focus on being the best school for boys in the nation. We appreciate your contributions toward helping us achieve our mission. We value your partnership. On behalf of our boys, the school’s administration and faculty, and the Board of Directors, I thank you for making Avon a priority.

Aspirando et perseverando!

Embracing tradition yet always evolving, since the early 1920s Mrs. Riddle’s vision for Avon Old Farms School was to reflect a progressive and highly individualistic philosophy of education. As Avon continues to evolve, the education provided continues to be highly individualistic … today more than ever before. Thank you for supporting Avon Old Farms School—yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Your faith and gifts continue to allow us to grow, adapt, and evolve with the times.
