Paving the

Way

The Leadership of Miss Porter’s School

Sarah Clark ’80 Chair, Investment Committee

I am in my seventh year as a full board member.

I joined because I just really love the school. Out of all of my schools, this is the one I care for the most, and the one that had the most impact on me.

The ability [for girls] to not have to worry about the influence of boys on their education is so key, and the ability now for girls to explore STEM without feeling like they have to worry about societal expectations is significant. As head of the Investment Committee, we have been very thoughtful and deliberate in the hiring process and have been thinking of what is best for the school and for its future. Kate and her staff are phenomenal. I think all the work that Chief Academic

The Board of Trustees is the governing body for Miss Porter’s School. Working in conjunction with Head of School Kate Windsor, Chief Financial and Operating Officer Michael Bergin, and the other members of the leadership team who manage the school’s day-to-day

Officer Tim Quinn is doing with the change in how we are thinking of educating girls is so important; it is fascinating for me to see.

We are currently navigating the complexity of the increasing cost vs. the tuition model, keeping education affordable. I think Miss Porter’s School will solve [this issue]. We are becoming a role model for others. ✦

reminded of those characteristics in a coed environment.

Nancy Simpkins ’73 Chair, Committee on Trustees running the world. Women collaborate, and life seems

I was a trustee from 2003 to 2009 and am currently serving from 2013 to 2022. I joined originally because Porter’s was the right place at the right time for me. I left my [coed] grade school with no self confidence; I rarely raised my hand in class unless it was my favorite subject (math), and I certainly didn’t enjoy school. I knew the moment I walked on [the Miss Porter’s School] campus for an interview at age 14 that this was a safe space.

Girls’ education is important to me because I went to a grade school that taught to the boys, and I also lived in a family where there were double standards for the boys and the girls. No one expected me to have a career, but the boys were groomed to be doctors or lawyers or bankers. Part of these double standards was just a symptom of the times — growing up in the 60s and 70s.

My sister, who is 11 years younger than I am, had a very different experience and she did have a career.

The other reason girls’ education is important to me is because I think women will do a much better job of

more precious to them. Girls are so much more in touch with their emotions than boys, through no fault of their own. Girls have a lot to teach boys, and in today’s world, I can’t think of a lot that boys have to teach girls.

In my tenure on the board, the construction of the Pool and Squash Building was a big accomplishment. Being on the board today under Kate’s leadership is an exciting place to be. She and her team are at the leading edge of what independent schools are doing with their curriculum. I am proud to be part of an institution that lives its mission.

My hope for the next five years is that the rollout of the new curriculum lives up to the vision. If that happens, I envision educating girls at Porter’s (off campus and on) meeting the needs of all kinds of learners. I would also really like girls to leave Porter’s knowing who they are as individuals: their strengths and weaknesses, how they learn best, what kinds of teachers they relate to best.

All of that would be so useful in making the most of their college years and beyond. ✦

I am the parent of Julia Wilcox ’10, and I am in my ninth and final year of board service. My wife and I believe that single-sex education is the best option for girls at the high school level. However, we think that coeducation is best for boys. Accordingly, we sent our daughter to MPS, while both of our sons went to coed boarding schools.

Kate Windsor makes the case for single-sex education for girls, and I have learned a great deal from her.

WOMEN In March 2019, Miss Porter’s School, in partnership with Sotheby’s NY, auctioned off the works of more than 25 renowned contemporary and historic women artists to support financial aid that enables emerging female leaders to attend Miss Porter’s School and go on to shape a changing world. As part of the biennial Sotheby’s Contemporary Curated sale, Porter’s “By Women, For Tomorrow’s Women” was the first ever all-women artists’ sale at a major auction house.

Caroline Ma ’19 adds, “I don't have one specific word to describe the entire experience. I’m honored and excited to be working on this.”

Porter’s has a long tradition of deeply influential art history teachers, beginning with a beloved teacher, Sarah MacLennan, who taught for several decades and retired in 1969. Ms. MacLennan taught Agnes Gund and many of the auction committee members, all of whom believe that she altered the course of their professional lives.

T

he TIE Certificate is one of two

optional certificate programs that allow students to delve deeply into interdisciplinary areas in which they may be passionate and, in so doing, distinguish themselves based on their course of study and the completion of a capstone project. Students who pursue the TIE Certificate learn about and become social entrepreneurs, utilizing technology to address social issues and provide solutions to complex problems that make a positive contribution to the world.

The TIE Certificate begins with an introductory class that explores technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Students then complete at least three elective courses, which can be in one or more of the strands (technology, innovation, or entrepreneurship). As seniors, students then participate in an InterMission internship in a TIE field and complete a collaborative capstone project in which the group must have at least one member focusing on each of the strands.

Students pursuing the TIE Certificate must also participate in TIE afternoon programs for at least two seasons. They are able to choose from several program options, such as robotics, start-up lab, engineering, data science, or artificial intelligence.

At Saturday night’s All-School Reunion dinner, the Class of 1968 was honored as the recipient of this year’s Class of 1947 Bowl.

This award is presented annually in recognition of the Reunion class up to the 50th that achieves the highest level of participation in the Annual Fund. Not only did the Class of 1968 raise an impressive $800,000 and achieve 71 percent participation this year, they also started a new scholarship, the Class of 1968 Vision Fund.

what is surprising is her takeaway from the gathering. “I have grown to appreciate the school for what it is today, but the thing that made me smile most was watching some of my classmates say, ‘Wow, this is a totally different and exciting place.’ That was really wonderful.”

Judy says she loved reacquainting herself with friends she hadn’t seen in a long time and to share their lives as they are today. “There was a tremendous amount of respect amongst everyone,” she says. “The depth of people working on the Reunion committee was fabulous.

Everyone worked very hard to get a great turnout.”

As the former head of the Alumnae Board and a trustee for nine years, Judy has contributed to Miss Porter’s School in countless ways.

T H E FA R M I N GTO N F O U N D E R S O C I E T Y The Farmington Founder Society was established in 1973 to recognize the leadership donors whose generosity sustains the school. The dedication and commitment of Founder Society members helps to ensure the continued excellence and competitiveness of Miss Porter’s School.

During the 2013-2014 year, the Board voted to increase the Founder Society giving levels. With the new Founder Society gift starting level of $2,500 or more, 224 Ancients, parents, past parents, grandparents and friends contributed a total of $5,275,490, representing 91 percent of all gifts to the school. Additionally, 189 donors participated in the Annual Fund at the leadership level, contributing a total of $1,716,206, which comprised 78 percent of the Annual Fund total. The generous support of the 2017-2018 Founder Society donors allows our students to explore, grow, and succeed both in the classroom and beyond.

Miss Porter’s School is deeply grateful to these donors.

AN N UA L F U N D In 2017-2018 the Annual Fund total of $2,204,340 provided nine percent of the operating expenses of the school.

The combined gifts to the Annual Fund from Ancients, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff and friends are put to use immediately and directly impact the daily lives of our students.

Miss Porter’s School is grateful to those who participated in the Annual Fund this year. Every gift plays a vital role in supporting the mission of the school; the continued support from our donors is the true measure of success.

Ancient Giving In 2017-2018 gifts from Ancients totaled $1,347,202 including gifts matched by corporations and contributions from foundations. Ancient participation came in at 32.95 percent with a total of 1,651 Ancient donors. Looking forward, we are confident that we can once again reach a high level of alumnae participation, thereby allowing Miss Porter’s School to continue to rank in the top percentile of giving among its peer schools.

The continued growth of the Annual Fund depends on two equally important factors: increased support each year from current donors and new gifts from others. The Annual Fund supports every facet of the school community, from financial aid and faculty salaries to academic enhancements and facility upgrades. Ancient giving to the Annual Fund is another in a long line of traditions at Miss Porter’s School.

We welcomed 532 Ancients representing 63 classes back to Farmington. The weekend was spent renewing friendships and seeing students in action. It focused on our legacy as we celebrated the Service of Remembrance and Thanksgiving remembering Ancients and Faculty; and welcomed former faculty at lunch. It focused on the future through review of the campus master plan, curriculum change, and intensified attention to the importance of the ties that link us together.

Plan Inspire TODAY.

TOMORROW.

PLANNING TODAY is as important as it is to help care for aging parents and help adult children build families and careers. It’s equally important to make sure you’ve got a plan for your own future.

• Create or update your last will and testament or revocable trust • Review your beneficiary designations: Retirement plans, life insurance, donor advised funds, etc.

• Create or update your power of attorney for: Health care, living will and financial matters • Write down all of your passwords and put them in a place your executor can find INSPIRE TOMORROW through the legacy you create for your family and the places you hold dear.

• Explore tax wise ways to make a gift.

• You don’t have to be wealthy to be generous.

• How would you inspire tomorrows at Miss Porter School?

NEXT STEPS • Contact an estate planning attorney today to get started on a plan for your future or ensure your current plan is up-to-date.

• Contact Susan Walker at 860-409-3626 or swalker@missporters.org with questions about how you can include Miss Porter's School in your estate plan.

Any age is the right age to plan for the future.

Join Moonbeams Circle and the Ancients, parents, faculty, staff, and friends who have already included Miss Porter's School in their estate plans.
