FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL

Dear CEE Community, What a year! Our 2017-18 year at The Center was filled with joy, laughter, learning, tradition and excitement. While we celebrated significant milestones this year, the constant was the accomplishments of our students thanks to the exceptional faculty and staff at CEE whose dedication inspires us on a daily basis.

The community said goodbye to Building A and cheered the opening of the La Cienega Building as students jumped into their new spaces and routines with enthusiasm and wonder. Our Campus Enhancement Plan is on track to be fully completed in 2020.

The whole CEE community went above and beyond to make this year possible - from our faculty and staff who worked together to move classrooms, offices, and facilities to ensure continuity for our students, to our generous parents, grandparents, alumni, alumni parents, board members, faculty and staff, and community members who helped us reach and exceed our annual fundraising goals. I am proud to call The Center home and am grateful for your help, loyalty, and support in providing wonderful social-emotional and educational programs for our students.

The common thread – or “The Big Picture,” the title of this year's Annual Report – is our commitment to this community and the values and traditions we hold dear. All year I could not help but smile with pride seeing our community members go out of their way to help each other. This teamwork and dedication to our mission is strong.

Thank you to the Board of Trustees for their visionary leadership and steadfast support of the school. Mark Siegel, our outgoing President of the Board, has skillfully led the Board for two years and we are grateful for his unwavering service to CEE. We look forward to welcoming David Messinger as President this year to continue the Board's important work.

We have many exciting moments to anticipate during the 2018-19 year as we continue to strive to live our mission and provide the highest caliber education for our students in our new facilities. I look forward to sharing them with you.

With my sincere appreciation,

Mark A. Brooks Head of School

FROM THE CO-PRESIDENTS OF THE PARENT ASSOCIATION Dear CEE Community, As our new campus continues to take shape, we celebrate how enthusiastically our community has embraced change throughout the 2017-18 year. We are struck by the creativity of our teachers, who have artfully incorporated our children's changing environment into experiential lessons. Campus construction as an opportunity to teach physics, language arts, and environmental science? Brilliant!

Thank you to our tireless parent volunteers for adapting to our 10

shifting landscape. We applaud you for navigating hot lunch on the new roof, selling spirit wear online, and innovating a myriad of CEE traditions in the middle of our campus transformation.

Through all the visible changes around us, what remains consistent is the essence of our community. In the true Center spirit, parents, grandparents, and alumni continue to support the school by devoting countless hours to volunteering on committees, field trips, campus celebrations, and community service projects. And as it has been for nearly 80 years, what continues to bind all of us is our dedication to the shared values of respect, inclusion, diversity, and kindness.

The 2018-19 school year promises more exciting improvements as our physical space continues to transform. If the new La Cienega Building is any indication, inspiring progress is on the horizon. We look forward to the coming year, as we will all continue to learn and evolve along with our dynamic new space, while strengthening our commitment to the heart and soul of CEE. See you around campus,

Jenny Louie and Jamie Zinberg Co-Presidents Parent Association

LORNE LOOKS FORWARD

Lorne Zilkie, beloved retired first grade teacher, is all about The Center. He started here in the early 1980s as a 27-year-old, fresh off the bus from Canada, and has spent his career giving himself to his students and this community.

After 33 years, Lorne Zilkie retired at the end of last school year, but his commitment to The Center remains steadfast. When considering leaving CEE, Lorne hoped to continue working with the school as a participant in the Retired Faculty Program.

He partnered with the administration to design

12

a new role that would keep him engaged and connected to the students and the community.

As of the 2018-19 year, Lorne will serve as CEE’s Mission and Culture Fellow. He has committed to fostering the connections and sense of community that make the school so special.

In his new role at The Center, Lorne will work to enliven long standing traditions while embracing new ones with a view toward spreading the history and philosophy of the school with new families, faculty, staff, and promoting the core values and personal connections that define our community.

Lorne will also continue to participate in the sixth grade civil rights unit by sharing his personal experience with LGBT civil rights. His lesson is one that many alumni still remember and take with them through the rest of their lives.

The Retired Faculty program is generously funded by the Annual Fund, allowing those members of our community who have decades of experience at the school to continue to share their talents and expertise with us.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT A key tenet of The Center for Early Education mission is a commitment to lifelong learning and community building. To that end, the Annual Fund Drive supports professional development opportunities for faculty, staff, and administrators to further their skills, build knowledge in their field, and interact with fellow educators.

During the 2017-2018 year, 65 Center faculty and staff participated in 56 programs from here at home in Los Angeles to as far afield as Barcelona, Spain.

Some of the opportunities the faculty and staff attended include: ȋȋ People of Color Conference (Anaheim, CA) ȋȋ Broadway Teachers Workshop (New York, NY) ȋȋ Responsive Classroom Courses (Nationwide) ȋȋ Women in Leadership Conference (Los Angeles, CA) ȋȋ RULER Anchors of Emotional Intelligence Workshop (New Haven, CT) ȋȋ Singapore Math Workshops (Culver City, CA) ȋȋ Navigating Gender and Sexuality Diversity in PK-12 (Los Angeles, CA) ȋȋ Discover Design Thinking at Stanford (San Jose, CA) ȋȋ ERB Annual Conference (Boston, MA) ȋȋ NAIS Annual Leadership Conference (Atlanta, GA) ȋȋ Summer Literacy Institute (Cambridge, MA) ȋȋ Say What You Mean: Practicing Mindful Communication (Berkeley, CA) ȋȋ Barcelona Writing Institute (Barcelona, Spain) Following professional development experiences, participants often share their learnings with their colleagues to spread the impact even further.

Faculty and staff came together for a community-building retreat at Gindling Hilltop Camp in Malibu in February.

Seeing the

CENTER Through

ART

R

For Center students, art is never only about art. It’s about pushing outside of their comfort zone, finding their voices, and learning how to face whatever life brings, inside or outside of a studio.

Mekenzie Schneider, Lower Elementary Art Teacher, describes how at CEE, “the students should never feel like they need to create art in a set way, modeling the teacher. My goal is for them to view creativity as a problem solving tool to answer the questions ‘what do you want to make?’ and ‘how do we get there?’ More than anything, I aim

to help them find their own creative voices by conceptualizing their own pieces and overcoming obstacles to create them.”

At times, she reminds students that the fun part of creating does not always emerge at the beginning of a project. When starting a sculpture, for example, making the base may not be the most exciting part of the project, but it is necessary for its structure.

The process can be viewed as a problem to be solved instead of a roadblock - and failure is not merely acceptable, but celebrated. In one exercise, Mekenzie prompts students to draw on each others’ work in order to release ownership of their ideas, encouraging them to feel equally excited about their classmates’ work as their own.

Fostering students’ own responsibility for their space,

materials, tools, and each other is a key component of the art curriculum. The students learn to use their materials efficiently, appreciate what they have, and reduce waste. “This is their studio,” explains veteran Upper Elementary Art Teacher Penny Landreth. “At the beginning of the year, the students complete a scavenger hunt to become familiar with the materials and options available to them. Then, I turn the studio over to them. It’s theirs to take advantage of and take responsibility for.”

Alumni may recall their original masks from sixth grade; Penny describes this assignment as an opportunity for the students to take risks (there were taco truck and game board masks created this year!) and express their independent voices. As the sixth grade students prepare to leave CEE, Penny encourages them to leap fearlessly into the unknown.

She explains, “negative and positive space share a line - and you have to be willing to go there.”

Penny’s curriculum is never static. She reveals how “every year I look at current events, local art shows, and what interests the students to drive my program”. This year, after months of classroom discussion about the

17

latest sneaker craze, fourth grade students designed their own sneaker advertisements.

They grappled with how to represent something they encounter regularly in popular culture. Every art class also takes at least one field trip to a museum, gallery, or art walk like the “The Great Wall of Los Angeles” to interact with art outside of the classroom in the larger context of Los Angeles.

18

Art abounds on campus beyond the classroom, too. In 2016, artist Friedrich Kunath was chosen to create a street-level art installation for the new La Cienega Building.

Center students across all grades worked with Kunath to develop and vote on a series of custom “emojis” to be incorporated into the project. As Kunath described, “to have them actively be part of the decision-making for this piece was inspiring… seeing a moment spark, like imagining a cloud with a beard [one of the emojis], led into a never ending stream of surrealism and creativity pouring out of them. For the students, they now feel an important connection to the dream depicted in the piece.” “Wake Up and Dream” is now open as a permanent, public art installation along La Cienega Boulevard as part of the West Hollywood Urban Arts Program.

At the Art Fair each May, everyone is an artist - each elementary student has a featured piece included the show. Students assess their work and choose which of their pieces they would like to display. After the Fair, much of the art is installed around campus for the coming school year, bringing life and color to CEE year-round.

This spread: The annual Art Fair features work from each K-6 student, shown throughout this report. Seen here is a small sampling of the creativity on display at this year's fair, including the fourth grade sneaker project and fifth grade Chagall dolls.

BIG

BRINGS CEE COMMUNITY TOGETHER

Board Members Tom Staggs, Holly Gores, and Mai

After over 50 years, CEE said goodbye to Building A in 2017 to accommodate the next phase of the Campus Enhancement Project.

Early Childhood classrooms were relocated to new facilities on the south end of campus, and most administrative offices moved into Building B. This major logistical and physical undertaking was completed in less than three weeks over Winter Break before the students returned to campus in January 2018. Long term Facilities Director, Frank Peralta, looks back on the big move with a knowing smile.

Preparing for the move began more than a year prior when Mark started as Head of School in 2016. As Frank explains, “we were moving things around long before the move.

“It required a lot of planning; I looked to take care of things that my team wouldn’t have time to do later, and kept asking myself, ‘what do we need to do so that we’re not inundated at the last minute?’” To get the job done quickly and efficiently, carts, dollies, hand trucks all needed to be in good condition

as we could not afford any failures during the move.

Lassiter cut the ribbon on the La Cienega Building with help from Head of School Mark Brooks, Retired Head of School Reveta Bowers, Mayor of West Hollywood John Heilman, and two lucky third graders.

Once the physical plans were in place, the focus shifted to moving people and their belongings.

Teamwork across divisions was key. Assistant Office Manager Nancy Kull stepped up to coordinate the packing process for all of the classrooms and offices.

She helped the faculty and staff understand what was required to prepare for the move, and provided packing materials and instructions to all.

Frank notes that Kindergarten teacher Roger LaGrange was always looking out for the facilities team; “We would be so focused on another thing, and Roger would go and worry about things we could not cover. It helped at a lot.” Teachers who were not moving this year helped pack up others’ classrooms, and staff lent a hand to each other to get the job done in time. Despite the demands of moving, the faculty maintained the highest level of instruction and care for our students in the weeks leading up to it.

way, in the right order.” Over 600 boxes were moved in one weekend alongside furniture and classroom supplies.

On December 15, 2017, the community came together for the annual Winter Sing. At noon, campus closed and moving started right away. Building A was positioned to come down on Monday, December 18, so time was of the essence. As Frank tells it, “I didn’t even have anything on my calendar on that Friday. All it says here is, ‘Clear Building A’! Each piece had to play into another; it was a logistics challenge to make sure everything was moved in the right

On Monday, January 8, students and families returned to campus to cut the ribbon on the new La Cienega Building. It was a thrilling day for everyone involved in the building project and for the students to see their new gym for the first time. Third grade students excitedly settled into their new classrooms (immediately trying out the Skywall which rises to connect their two classrooms!). It was a joyous celebration after many months of hard work and planning by all.

Throughout Winter Break, staff settled into their new offices and the facilities and technology teams went above and beyond to ensure that the campus was ready for students, faculty and staff, and families to return to safely. When faculty returned, they reported that they felt closer to each other than ever, as everyone pitched in to work towards the common goal.

WHAT SUPPORTING THE CENTER MEANS TO US The Smith Family joined the CEE community two years ago when their daughter, Ella, entered the Toddler program. Their son, Mason, entered Toddlers this year, and the family is looking forward to having both of their children as part of the community, and walking to school together as a family in the mornings.

Sara and Trevor, Los Angeles natives, had always heard of CEE growing up, as they both attended Brentwood School.

Trevor explains that they felt quite drawn to The Center after their first admissions tour. He shares how “the community was very warm and inviting. We were blown away by the facilities, the teachers, and the philosophy of the school. The Center is so forward thinking in terms of education, and displayed progressive values, which were really appealing to us as prospective parents.”

were really appealing to us as prospective parents.

When it was time to consider supporting the school, the Smiths understood the importance of giving at a level appropriate for their family for the wellbeing of the whole community. As Sara and Trevor describe, “we understand that tuition doesn't do enough to support everything that goes on at The Center, and that it takes additional donations to accomplish what we all want to see happen at the school. We know we are fortunate to be part of this community and to be able to support

The Smiths understand that “while tuition is a large investment on its own, at the end of the day, it doesn't go far enough to operate a school like The Center in a city like Los Angeles. These incredible programs could not continue without donations which make them all possible, and we encourage other families that do have the means to support the school to do so in order to continue its amazing legacy.”

Thanks to generous support from CEE families to the Leading From The Center campaign, we can ensure that these facilities and programs stay strong for years to come.

Erica and Gabe look forward to the Campus Enhancement Project to be completed so the students can fully enjoy all of the amazing resources available to them.

She describes how “as an alum and now as a parent, The Center has a very special place in our family's heart and I can't think of a better community to give back to. Devoting our time and resources is a meaningful way to support the school, and we give whatever way we can.”

Erica and Gabe make sure to volunteer often throughout the year, fostering connections with others in the community. CEE students are lucky to have supporters like Erica and Gabe!
