Annual Report 2010-2011

CelebrationA Year of

I hope you enjoy this tribute to Augusta Prep’s 50th year, truly a year of and a year for celebration. Fifty years of educational excellence culminated in a year of “Prep

Pride” – a time for looking back over all the accomplishments throughout the School’s rich history, for remembering the traditions which are now a part of our story, and for acknowledging the many whose hard work and steadfast loyalty built this exceptional school. From “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum” to a festive 50th Anniversary Gala to singing “Happy Birthday” with students on September 6th, only one day after the school’s actual fiftieth birthday – scores of alumni, students, teachers, parents, and friends joined to celebrate this milestone.

All that celebration sparked renewed enthusiasm for current programs and generated momentum for new projects. “Nourishing Our Roots To Grow Strong For Our Future” – what an appropriate theme for the Annual Fund marking the School’s 50th year! With the help of so many, we accomplished that goal – and met the challenges of the year with a strong foundation. Thanks to you, our 50th Anniversary Tree sprouted over 400 leaves and together, we raised over $170,000.

The Annual Fund is vitally important; it bridges the gap between what tuition covers and the true cost of an Augusta Prep education. A strong Annual Fund assures that our students grow - get what they need to assure their strong educational growth. Thank you all for your support of the 2010-2011 Annual Fund and for so generously responding to our challenge to “Nourish Our Roots to Grow Strong For Our Future.”

Twelve outstanding years of Jack Hall’s leadership was celebrated in a special Jack Hall Day in the spring. I offer my personal thanks to Jack for his support in this smooth transition starting last year and continuing even today.

We are off to a fantastic fifty-first year. As we cross that important threshold, our sights are set on the future. As this year progresses, we will focus on strategic thinking to assure that the school’s second half century rivals its first in vision, in strength, and in success – no small feat in a world so rapidly changing and with unprecedented educational and economic challenges. I look forward to navigating that future as part of this amazing and forward-thinking community.

Gratefully,

Rebecca B. GilmoreHead of School

It was a year of celebration for the Augusta Prep community and I thank you for being involved. This year’s brochure highlights the many events which drew

so many of us back to the campus and to additional special off-campus events. We thank Prep’s terrific staff as well as the Prep community’s friends, teachers, supporters and army of volunteers for making these celebratory events happen so successfully!

To prepare for the anniversary year, we researched the school’s history, and that research has given us all an opportunity to reflect on the accomplishments of Prep’s first fifty years. It is gratifying to know that the strength and importance of Prep’s mission has remained steadfast throughout that history. Augusta Prep provides the very best academic program in the area while assuring that our students also enjoy and participate in the programs which develop their athletic and artistic interests and strengthen their character. These programs for our students would not exist without your support.

Augusta Prep fulfills an important educational niche in the greater CSRA community which cannot be overstated. As a premier, non-sectarian, Pre-School-12 school, Prep offers an educational choice which enhances our community’s ability to attract professionals to the area. Thus, your support not only impacts our children, grandchildren and future generations, but enables Prep to play a pivotal role in attracting and retaining a talented workforce whose families and businesses greatly contribute to the area’s growth and the financial and cultural health of our community.

Thank you to the many whose names appear on the following pages. Your financial support of the Annual Fund, the 50th Endowment Campaign, the Georgia GOAL Scholarship program, the Golf Classic, and your volunteer spirit are all important to the School’s success. Together, your gifts support the people, the programs and the physical plant which makes an Augusta Prep education possible. More importantly, your actions foster a spirit of giving and “giving back” that is a vital lesson for our children to learn. Our children are more likely to give to others if they see us give. Thank you for your generous support and all that you do for Augusta Prep.

With Gratitude,

James M. HullPresident, Board of Trustees

Dr. Wallace “Mack” McLeod, former Prep parent and longtime board member, passed away in January 2011. Three of Mack and Natalie’s children graduated from Augusta Prep: Jeremy ’99, Susannah ’03, and Caroline ’06. Mack had served on Prep’s Board of Trustees since 1998 and was Chair of the Board Development Committee for eight years. He played an integral role in the success of the Framing the Future Capital Campaign and was always thinking of ways to help make Augusta Prep even stronger. Mack will be missed but not forgotten for all he has done for our school.

When asked about the 14th Annual Augusta Prep Golf Classic, Tom Holodak, Athletic Director, stated “We were thrilled to have Larry Mize participate in the 50th Anniversary golf outing. It was an honor to have his involvement and was another successful event to support Prep Athletics.” Mr. Mize was on hand to take photos, sign autographs and even golfed with some lucky participants. With the generosity and support of our sponsors we raised over $ 14,000 for Augusta Prep Athletics. Thank you to all who participated in this memorable day!

The evening began with hors d’oeuvres in the Hutchinson Gallery with featured student performances from Jae Lee ’11 and the Grease cast in the Karen N. Hull Theater.

Attendees then traveled through McCampbell Hall to the Boardman Athletic Center which was transformed for the festivities including a photo

50 th Anniversary Galaslideshow featuring highlights of Prep’s first 50 years. Jack Hall, Head of School, and Founding Trustee, Frank Troutman, Jr. offered their remarks on this milestone in school history and guests danced the night away with music from Momentum.
