PREP FOR PREP ’S EXECUTIVE TEAM

MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE

Dear Friends, In my 25 years at Prep for Prep, the last 18 as Chief Executive, Prep has grown considerably while staying true to our unwavering commitment to providing life-changing opportunities for students of color. With Prep’s academic, personal, and professional support as their foundation, our students are becoming the transformative leaders that this nation so desperately needs and deserves.

This year’s annual report spotlights students and alumni at the forefront of this next generation of diverse, ethical, and effective leaders: • Rye Country Day School eighth grader Isabel Tiburcio (XL), exercising her powerful

voice in both musical theater and gun control advocacy • Penn junior Trevor Núñez (XXXIII), embarking on the long road to shape policy

and uphold the public good in the U.S. House of Representatives • Prep Trustee Roland Persaud (LA II), advising cities nationwide on effective and

sustainable management through his work at Bloomberg Philanthropies They are just three of the many thousands of members of the Prep Community transforming the face of leadership in this nation. However, they, and we at Prep, cannot do this immense work alone.

Preparing over 700 students to thrive at leading independent schools and another 600 at this country’s most competitive colleges is possible because of your generosity. In Fiscal Year 2019, Lilac Ball Honoree Paul J. Taubman, Chairman and CEO of PJT Partners, paved the way to help raise $4 million of our $12 million budget. Prep alumni, impressive with their individual accomplishments and generous with their time, talent, and treasure, helped secure 43% of internship opportunities for current students. A record ten alumni now serve on Prep’s Board of Trustees, steering the organization into its fifth decade.

An investment in Prep is an investment in this nation’s future. With our students’ successes as our inspiration and the promise of the untapped potential of thousands more, let’s get to work.

With gratitude,

PREPAR ATORY COMPONENT

1

ADMISSIONS Each year, 4,000 top students of color from 750 New York City public schools apply for admission to Prep for Prep.

125 students are accepted into Prep (for day school placement) and 75 into PREP 9 (boarding school placement).

To increase their academic and social preparedness for independent school, rising sixth-graders in Prep and eighthgraders in PREP 9 undergo a rigorous 14-month course of study spanning two intensive summer sessions as well as after-school Wednesday and all-day Saturday classes during the intervening school year.

3

PLACEMENT All students who successfully complete the Preparatory Component (typically 75% of admitted students) are placed in day schools as seventh-graders or boarding schools as ninth-graders.

COLLEGE GR ADUATES

ALUMNI AFFAIRS The opportunities, networking, and events open to alumni strengthen and nurture their achievements and contributions to society, while keeping them active in the Prep Community.

4

COUNSELING Prep monitors the academic and personal progress of each student in grades 7–12 through monthly meetings with Prep counselors — young people of color who themselves are graduates of selective colleges.

The Undergraduate Affairs team provides counseling services to Prep college students.

5

OPPORTUNITIES A considerable array of Leadership Development Opportunities broadens our students’ aspirations, increases their awareness of life’s possibilities, and builds a stronger sense of self.

In addition to all of the programs above, Prep shares its best practices with like-minded organizations and individuals through an initiative called Smart Connections, through which Prep has indirectly impacted another 250,000 young people worldwide.

ISABEL TIBURCIO (XL) is a natural leader with a strong sense of social justice. She uses her powerful voice for both musical theater and gun violence prevention.

“ I’m the youngest member of New York State Senator Shelley B. Mayer’s Youth Advisory Council. We meet regularly with district representatives to advocate for gun safety and climate change laws.”

What are some things you enjoy most about attending Rye Country Day School?

ISABEL: I love my school! I’m so glad Prep led me to RCDS. I had to give up acting and dancing classes during Prep’s Preparatory Component, but now I get to do musical theater at RCDS. It’s a whole new world: the workshops, teachers, and choreography were all so amazing and next-level compared to what I was doing before. In seventh grade, I earned a starring role as Mayzie the Bird in Seussical, Jr. and I had a lot of fun becoming a character so different from my own personality.

PREP:

Through Rye’s Middle School Service Learning Group, I also raised money for the Scott J. Beigel Memorial Fund, which is named for a teacher killed in the Parkland shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. I then started a club #NeverAgainNRA because gun control is important to me and a lot of my peers.

Why is gun control such an important issue for you?

ISABEL: After Parkland, I wanted to do something to support the families. I started by raising funds through a bake sale and selling #NeverAgainNRA bracelets and t-shirts online. Then I met Emma Gonzalez and other March for Our Lives activists and realized I can do more. I became the youngest member of New York State Senator Shelley B. Mayer’s Youth Advisory Council, even though it was originally for high school and college students. We meet regularly with district representatives to advocate for gun safety and climate change laws. I was able to watch a live legislative session from the gallery, which was pretty cool! It was meaningful to learn that Nicholas’ Law was passed by New York State this year, which makes unsafe storage of loaded guns in the home illegal.

PREP:

How did Prep for Prep impact your approach to leadership?

Because of Prep, I can better understand many more points of view and relate to people from very different backgrounds. PIMAS — Problems and Issues in Modern American Society — with Ms. Daniels helped me become more aware of important issues happening in the world. And Research Skills with Mr. Thoren was my favorite class! My public speaking skills improved and I became more confident persuading others to see my side of an issue. I’m starting a middle school debate club at Rye so I can help my classmates practice before we join the debate team at the upper school level next year. I’m thankful for Prep because now I get to do what I love and go to one of the best schools in the State. It will open up new opportunities over the next five years and the hard work is so worth it.

A Political Science major at Penn, TREVOR NÚÑEZ (XXXIII) recently interned at the U.S. House of Representatives to build a foundation for public service leadership.

“ I’ve been struck by the difference between policy and politics, and have realized that to be successful you have to understand both.”

Why did you choose to spend your summer interning at the nation’s capital?

TREVOR: In the last presidential election, I was not yet old enough to vote. 2020 is a pivotal year for U.S. politics. I knew I wanted to learn more about the structure of government and how my voice and my vote can be most effective. The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation offered me training and mentorship, then placed me in the Office of Congressman Hakeem Jeffries, who represents my home district in Brooklyn.

My work included helping to prepare for Caucus meetings and policy roundtables on issues important to our communities, such as lowering prescription drug prices.

PREP:

What was most satisfying about your experience?

TREVOR: The secret to D.C. is that I learned much more from coffee chats and after work receptions than I ever could in any political science textbook. I’ve been inspired by the caliber of the people I’ve met working on the Hill — changemakers from around the country who have dedicated themselves to service. I’ve been struck by the difference between policy and politics, and have realized that to be successful you have to understand both. Being around true practitioners of government at the highest level is one of the greater experiences of my life so far and informs not only my career plans, but also how I view my responsibilities as an American citizen.

PREP:

How has Prep for Prep helped build the foundation for your current pursuits?

TREVOR: As a son of struggling Guatemalan and Trinidadian immigrants, I am not supposed to be in the position I am in today, with the world as my oyster and equipped with fearless aspirations. The difference for me was Prep for Prep. It taught me grit, perseverance, and the importance of deferred gratification in achieving anything worthwhile. Also, both Prep for Prep and my independent school, Poly Prep, enabled me to travel to and learn from our global communities: the enduring legacy of slavery and Jim Crow in the American South, the contrasts of democracy in South Africa and dictatorship in Zimbabwe, and the beautiful history and culture of predominately Muslim Turkey. With those opportunities comes a responsibility that I know my peers have all felt since we first started Prep: to do more, to be better, and to never limit ourselves.

ROLAND PERSAUD (LA II) is helping to transform cities worldwide through his work at Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Government Innovation team.

“ I am proud to find myself working with people who are smart, passionate, and devoted to improving the lives of everyday people across the U.S. and abroad.”

How does your work at Bloomberg Philanthropies help transform communities?

ROLAND: At Bloomberg Philanthropies, we have an incredible mission: to ensure better, longer lives for the greatest number of people. Who wouldn’t want to do that?

I think I have one of the best jobs on the planet! On the Government Innovation team, we have the privilege of working closely with cities all over the world, providing them with the resources, data, and tools to tackle their greatest challenges as diverse as murder reduction, economic development, and customer service. These initiatives began with Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s vision for New York City, and today, we are truly achieving impact on a global scale. I am proud to find myself working with people who are smart, passionate, and devoted to improving the lives of everyday people across the U.S. and abroad.

PREP:

Why did you choose public service as your career path?

ROLAND: A career in public service feels like a natural extension of my time with Prep.

I always knew that I had to give back to give others the chances I’ve been afforded.

My first job out of college was at a nonprofit, and I enjoyed doing work that served a greater purpose. After completing a fellowship for Emerging Leaders in Public Service at NYU in 2014, I joined an incredible network of like-minded and “woke” individuals. The journey has been a fulfilling one and there’s no turning back now.

PREP:

How did Prep for Prep help build the foundation for your current pursuits?

ROLAND: Everything I learned through Prep was foundational. Joining the Prep Community was the most pivotal decision of my life, setting me on a path to success and propelling me toward a lifelong pursuit of leadership. It also influenced my disciplined approach to school and learning today. I’m currently pursuing an Executive Master’s degree in Public Administration at NYU, while working fulltime and raising a two-year-old. If I had not survived Prep for Prep all those years ago, I don’t believe I would have had the audacity to take on this level of responsibility at age 30! As the chair of the Alumni Council’s fundraising committee, I was recently elected to Prep’s Board of Trustees. I’m grateful to work on behalf of all current alumni to help shape future generations of leaders.
