INSPIRED IMPACT The Annual Fund allowed PBS to... …focus on attracting and retaining the best faculty members while developing each student's academic, artistic, and athletic abilities. The Annual Fund supports incorporation of innovative technologies into the classroom and the pursuit of exciting learning opportunities with agility. Additionally, PBS is able to be flexible and prepared to meet any unexpected challenges and embrace opportunities that may arise.

$1,135,434 in 2022-2023 The Spring Benefit... ...supported the need-based Financial Aid program at PBS. All funds raised were directed towards this strategic priority, channeling the community's culture of generosity and gathering towards a specific cause.

Through this effort, we aim to provide increased support for students who may not have access to the financial resources necessary to fully participate in the PBS educational experience. We know that this investment has a positive impact on the entire school community, creating greater equity and opportunities for all.

$461,858 in 2022-2023

The PBSA... ...played a crucial part in fostering and supporting our community and allowed teachers to focus on educating our students. Parents and guardians participate in the school community, build relationships, and provide support through volunteering and financial contributions to create a more cohesive and supportive environment for students, staff, and families alike. We are all stronger when we come together through friendship and service to the PBSA. 3

I love being part of a community that centers around the child. We ask 'what is best for the students' when making decisions about every aspect of the school.

I am proud to contribute to this place.

Maeve Knoth, PBS Librarian

I've seen classrooms fully stocked with wonderful learning materials and resources to support both teachers and students throughout the year. During unforseen and unprecedented moments, I see a team quick and ready to respond.

Chelsea Sun, PBS Parent and PBSA Vice President We were drawn to PBS because of the community aspect - not just for the kids, but for us as parents too. It takes a village, and the best way to be a part of the community is to actively participate.

Chris Mironov, PBS Parent and Spring Benefit Co-Chair

INSPIRED YEAR AHEAD ANNUAL FUND We believe in joyful, inspired, and meaningful philanthropy. Our community has always been committed to making an investment in the excellence of PBS’s teaching and learning program. Our collective efforts will help create a learning environment in which every student can thrive and everyone can make a lasting impact. The PBS community has always exceeded our annual giving goals. Thank you so much for your generosity in the past and moving forward!

The year starts with the Annual Fund, which allows the community to invest in essential support to the operating budget to fulfill our mission for each student. This year’s Annual Fund goal is $1.2 million. Every dollar raised in 2023-2024 goes directly to your children’s education because tuition alone does not cover the cost.

5

2022-2023 Goal: $1.2 million This year, your philanthropy will allow us to focus on some critical areas: Energize student learning and academic challenges by investing in ongoing curriculum innovations Prioritize the excellence of our core academic program: Math, literacy, social-emotional learning, and multigrade subjects Optimize each student’s academic success with new strategies and practices supporting differentiated instruction Deepen our excellence in assessing student performance data to help ensure that every student is challenged academically Support professional development and training of our high-quality teachers who truly know and care for their students.

I am thankful that the PBS community comes together to support the Annual Fund. Your generosity means that a great school like PBS can be even better with aspirational, actionable, and achievable initiatives.

Scott Erickson Head of School As a family, we are inspired to give to the Annual Fund as it impacts every aspect of a student's experience. We want to provide critical resources that enable the school to deliver on its mission and sustain the hallmarks of a Phillips Brooks School education.

Ashley Chambers, PBS Parent and former PBSA President We are inspired to be participants in the Annual Fund as a way to help further the mission of the school and provide the financial foundation that allows for continued growth, support and expanded offerings that make PBS the special place it is - both today for our children and in years to come.

Alex Albert, PBS Parent and Annual Fund Co-chair

The event promises to be a joyful evening of coming together, while making a positive impact on our community of lifelong learners. Let's make a difference.

Our community inspires me to volunteer! I love seeing parents, children, and faculty come together and enjoy an event we put together.

By volunteering, I show my children that I want to be part of their education.
