Dear Beaumont Donor, I hope your new year is off to a strong start. At Beaumont, we have hit the ground running and are planning for a very busy 2020. In my second year as Beaumont’s President, we focused our energies on recruitment and enrollment, resulting in the growth of our student population for the second consecutive year. We also graduated our first group of International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma students. We know IB has strengthened our curriculum and how we teach. We’re very excited by how it prepares and differentiates our students for college. It also broadened our pedagogy and helps us to teach to the future, developing skills such as critical thinking, collaboration and problem-solving. IB’s philosophy of building a more peaceful world through education fully aligns with our mission to educate women for life, leadership and service. In early 2019, we completed a five-year strategic plan which outlines our path forward. The four priorities in the plan are rooted in our deep history, focusing our resources and energy to make Beaumont unrivaled not only in women’s education but also in preparing global leaders. In 2019 we strategically brought the Summer Soirée back to campus and successfully focused our fundraising on renovation of the computer lab. We raised more money during the party than ever before, fully funding a capital project which will provide significant benefit our students. In the coming pages, you will meet a few of our students. While they come from different backgrounds and have different interests, a common theme in each of their reflections is their love of the Beaumont community and how much they value the educational opportunities the have here. They are all beneficiaries of your generous support and we are all truly grateful for our partnership with you. Always feel free to let me know how we’re doing. Reach out via email whoke@beaumontschool.org or give me a call 216.325.7324. Yours in St. Angela,
Wendy A. Hoke President

Sister Ann Wojnar Innovation Lab (SAIL) Beaumont’s largest fundraising event came back to campus in 2019 as a resounding success, including a robust raise-the-paddle to renovate our computer lab.
In June 2019, Beaumont’s largest fundraiser was rebranded, moved back to campus, and raised more philanthropic dollars for Beaumont than ever before! The Summer Soirée featured a program dedicated to Sr. Ann Wojnar and her creative fundraising efforts to establish Beaumont’s first computer lab. We unveiled schematics for the renovation which included collaborative spaces, flexible work stations, charging stations, and new computers. Designs showed a student-centered environment including a podcast studio and video editing suite. All the changes would be adaptable to expand course offerings and evolve with students’ needs. The Sister Ann Wojnar Innovation Lab, so named by a lead gift from an anonymous donor, was fully funded at the Summer Soirée through the generosity of the attendees. Renovation on the space took place through the fall of 2019 and students began enjoying the SAIL in January 2020. It quickly became a popular spot for students before, during, and after school.

YOUNG WOMEN WHO ARE
LEARNING TO CHANGE THE WORLD
“Thank you!” Beaumont School students tell us what they love about the school and community, and share the lifelong lessons they are learning.
Brenna Czenszak ’23 “My favorite part of Beaumont is the community. Everyone is smiling in the halls and they pick each other up and are so supportive and helpful, especially to the incoming freshman. Many of the students come to various sports games and rally around the players, cheer, and let the players know we believe in them. I also participate in Academic Scholars, Ambassador Club, Social Justice Club, Volleyball, and Art.”
Dionna White ’22 “I am in Pre-Med Club, Entrepreneur Club, F.A.M.E., and French Club. My favorite thing about Beaumont is the community. The friends I’ve made will stick with me for life. We build each other up and provide support. I am eternally grateful.”
