Dear Ursuline Community,
PRESIDENT’S PERSPECTIVE
While the 2019-2020 school year didn’t go as planned, our students and staff continued to shine through it all. In true trailblazing form, Ursuline Academy stood up and stood out during the COVID-19 pandemic by providing seamless distance learning to its students. Our amazingly talented faculty led the charge and were able to continue to provide quality collaborative learning experiences for our Ursuline girls. The idea of an Ursuline family was never more present than during this global pandemic. Faculty, staff, administration, alumnae, students, and families rallied together in support of our 293rd year of teaching. When we stop and reflect on the illness, natural disasters, and world events that have taken place since the Academy’s founding in 1727, it is amazing to think that the Ursulines have persevered through it all. None of what we do as educators could be done without the support of our Ursuline family. The gifts of time, talent and treasure are what make our Academy. Thank you to those, listed in here, who have supported Ursuline in the 2019-2020 school year. We appreciate your continued support as we work to form leaders of confidence and compassion. To the Sioux of 2020, may you take with you all that you’ve learned during your most unpredictable senior year. I encourage you to have that same grace and determination in any and all challenges life may throw your way. We are proud of you and we can’t wait to see what trails you will blaze. Two National Merit Scholars, a perfect ACT score, and many other accomplishments in between – we are extremely proud of you. To every donor and volunteer listed in this annual report, thank you for being a gift to Ursuline. Together, we can accomplish great things. To those founding women of the Laurel Legacy Guild – thank you for being trailblazers. Your gifts will make an impact on generations of Ursuline girls. Together, may we live united in one heart as our foundress St. Angela Merici encouraged. To our Ursuline community I thank you for the last 7 years as I served as President. I am forever grateful for your support of Ursuline and being a part of the UA family.
In Christ,
Karen Thomas McNay, EdD Academy President

When meeting with Ursuline alumnae in my travels, I often hear the comment “Ursuline made me who I am today.” The influence of Ursuline Academy on the lives of her alumnae enters every conversation I have with alumnae. Each discussion includes “Ursuline is where I became confident,” “Ursuline is like family,” and “Serviam is a part of who I am.” Our alumnae are thankful for their education and understand the difference that an Ursuline education makes on every woman who walks our halls. It is this very understanding, along with sincere gratitude, that our alumnae have fueled the development of the Laurel Legacy Guild. Founded by trailblazing women who have given or plan to give a gift to the Academy, the Laurel Legacy Guild has blessed the Academy with funds that will continue the trailblazing spirit of Ursuline women for years to come. Planned gifts have funded innovative improvements to part of our main academy building. Jane Gisevius, Merry Mac of ’61, loved Ursuline Academy. She recognized the gift of her Ursuline education and was committed to the idea that Ursuline continue to serve New Orleans girls with an excellent education. Jane began scholarships at the Academy during her lifetime to continue to provide funding for girls who show aptitude and need. Making an even larger impact, Jane gave the largest single planned gift given to the Academy. The Jane Gisevius Leadership Center will open this fall and will house SmartLabs, an entrepreneurship center and broadcast studio. As a founding member of the Laurel Legacy Guild, Jane’s love of Ursuline and commitment to Serviam will continue in the Leadership Center. Linda Teijelo Smith, Skipperette of ’59, also understood the gift of an Ursuline education. As a graduate of Newcomb College at Tulane University, Linda pursued a Master’s in Mathematics from Stanford followed by a Master’s in Oceanography from Miami University. Linda valued a strong education. When I met her in Miami, I learned quickly that Linda loved opera and traveling. Linda was truly her own person. She explained that she wanted her planned gift to go to capital expenses that would make a difference for students and move Ursuline forward. Linda’s planned gift is funding the two SmartLabs, one for elementary and one for high school in The Jane Gisevius Leadership Center. Phyllis Bunol Jones, Academy Class of ’39 and Distinguished Alumna, was a true blue Ursuline girl. Phyllis also left a planned gift in support of the Academy’s mission and traditions. Her gift will also be a part of improving the building and funding the future for our girls within the Leadership Center. URSULINE ACADEMY | 12 | 2019-2020 IMPACT OF GIVING
Suzanne Cromiller Thomas, Mac of ’73, expressed her desire to leave a planned gift after her recent retirement. She states, “One of my earliest Ursuline memories is my kindergarten interview with one of the nuns. We took a walk in the courtyard on a beautiful day and chatted. My mom was told that I had no separation anxiety. Even at 5 years old, Ursuline felt like a nurturing and supportive place. I was an Ursuline “lifer” so when I graduated in 1973 and went to college, I was a little wary about sharing a classroom with men. What I found was that while Ursuline had provided me with strong academic tools, it also had prepared me to be self-confident and independent. I have had a very successful career in the financial industry and have done well professionally over the years. When I reflect on what helped me achieve success, after acknowledging the gifts that God has given me, as well as the support of my parents and husband, I can’t help but think about Ursuline Academy and my years on State Street. It is only natural that I would now consider a legacy gift to the school so that its tradition of educating strong and independent women will continue long after I am gone. I hope that others will consider joining me.” Jane, Linda, Phyllis and Suzanne are founding members and serve as trailblazers of our Laurel Legacy Guild. Their thoughtful gifts truly make a difference and continue the legacy of an Ursuline education. We welcome other trailblazers to join the Guild in support of an Ursuline education and our historic campus. For more information about planned giving, please contact Mariana Coudrain at mcoudrain@uanola.org or Maria Weidenbacher at mweidenbacher@uanola.org. In Christ,

In 2019-2020, Ursuline Academy awarded $142,300 of scholarships to high school and middle school students. Donors who provide these scholarships help to ensure that an Ursuline education is available to all young women in the New Orleans area. We are grateful for these special gifts, as well as the reunion class gifts that enabled us to purchase equipment that compliments and enhances our curriculum.
