HEAD OF SCHOOL FROM JULY 2011
Laura J. Fuller
Message from the President of the Board of TrusteesNothing endures but change.– Heraclitus
“The times they are a-changin’.” So declared Bob Dylan in hismusical ode to the social and political upheavals of the early1960s. Today, against the backdrop of our current economicand technological upheavals, the lyric is as timely as a tweet.However, good old Heraclitus reminds us that Dylan was alittle late to the permutation party. The ancient Greeks realizedover 2,500 years ago that change is both a constant and anecessity (as I write this in July, a lesson the neo-Greeks arepainfully learning anew).
This past year, “change” was also on the lesson plan at 2100West Fairy Chasm. The syllabus included the opening of agleaming new facility, the start of a fresh strategic planningcycle, and the beginning of a transition in the leadership ofthe School.
Over a year ago, the painstaking process for finding a suitablenew Head of School for USM was initiated; a process thatwould involve representatives from every corner of the USMcommunity. The task was made all the more difficult givenWard Ghory’s accomplishments during his eleven-year tenure.Under his skillful leadership, USM had scaled new heights inacademic “measurables,” including SAT/ACT scores, preferredcollege admissions, and National Merit Scholarships.
Without doubt, another high point during Ward’s USM careerwas the Next Generation Campaign. Through the outstandinggenerosity and diligent work of the USM community, ourEndowment was strengthened and dramatic new additions tothe USM campus were realized. The beginning of the 2010-2011 school year marked the opening of our Phase II facilities,providing enhanced opportunities for our students to benefitfrom 21st-century educational methods.
Change and continuity are not mutually exclusive. Indeed, USMis in an enviable position in many respects, so there is much topreserve going forward. Nonetheless, USM’s strength stems in nosmall part from the refusal of its leaders and the community torest on their laurels in our fast-changing environment.
Accordingly, the Search Committee was looking for a Head ofSchool who would be a fit for the unique personality andculture of USM in particular, a candidate who would stewardcontinuity and possess the vision to manage change.
Several well-qualified candidates were vetted by the SearchCommittee. One candidate, however, quickly took the lead.Laura Fuller was unanimously recommended to the Board and,after representatives of the various USM constituencies metwith Laura, the feedback corroborated that endorsement.
As we welcome Laura Fuller as the new Head of School, one ofthe first items on her and the Board’s to-do list will be to fleshout the new Strategic Plan, setting out the priorities of theSchool for the next few years. You will hear much more aboutthis in the months to come. Areas of focus of the plan includetechnology, financial planning, facilities (e.g. for athletics andthe arts), human resources, and USM’s interaction with thecommunity. Stay tuned.
Yes, the times are changing. Nothing new there. And USMwill adapt as needed. Nothing new there either. For asBenjamin Franklin observed, “When you’re finished changing,you’re finished.”
President, Board of TrusteesMichael A. Roth

Welcome, New Head of SchoolUniversity School is proud and delighted to welcome Laura Fuller as the new Head ofSchool for the 2011-2012 school year.
Since 2007, Fuller has served as Head of St. Catherine’s School, an all-girlsindependent, Episcopal, JK-12 college preparatory day school in Richmond, Virginia.Fuller earned her bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Wisconsin.Prior to St. Catherine’s School, she served as Head of the Upper School at BerkeleyPreparatory School in Tampa and as Head of the Science department at the Taft Schoolin Connecticut.
Following the Board’s announcement in the fall of 2010, Fuller wrote to the Schoolcommunity. “My husband Tom and I are equally thrilled about living and working withall of you as we plan together and create the vision that will take USM well into the21st century. As my dreams grow for the school, I want to pause to pay homage to theoutstanding legacy of Ward Ghory. One only needs to walk around the beautiful USMcampus to realize the dedication and expertise he obviously brought to his tenure as theHead of School. I am truly blessed to be provided the opportunity to stand on hisshoulders as we move forward into the next era of educational excellence at USM.”
Laura’s youngest son, Zach Erickson, will join the freshman class at USM for the2011-2012 school year. Her oldest son, Jake Erickson, is a 2010 graduate of FloridaState University in Tallahassee. Luke Erickson is a senior at Virginia PolytechnicUniversity (Virginia Tech), majoring in Architecture.
Fuller credits her many years as a parent for helping her develop “some of my mostprofound thoughts as an educator through my many years as a parent. The childrenhave taught me patience (and sometimes impatience), humility and compassion,perseverance, and that being a parent is the biggest gift any of us could ever experience.”
In addition to looking forward to her new role, Fuller is delighted to return to herhome state. “I love the fact that my roots are in Wisconsin,” she says. “I was born inLa Crosse and grew up in Oshkosh. After Oshkosh West High School, I went on toschool in Madison and lived in Milwaukee, Appleton, and Madison after college andbefore leaving the state in 1991. My family is originally from the Appleton andMilwaukee areas. My brother and extended family all still live in Milwaukee. Myhusband and three stepchildren live in Oshkosh, and Tom will share his timebetween there and USM. I have always considered myself a Midwesterner even whileliving in the Northeast, South, and Southeast. It is wonderful to be coming home!”

Annual GiftsMake a
DifferenceBoth In and Out
of theClassroom
Generous support from parents,alumni, grandparents, faculty, staff,and friends enriches each USMstudent’s journey. Theunparalleled educationalexperiences – both in and out ofthe classroom – that we offer eachstudent are made possible throughUSM’s Annual Giving Program.
Educational Technology Opens Up the ClassroomIn the 21st century, the definition of a classroom as “a room where classes areheld” can be expanded well beyond four walls. Opening up the classroom is madepossible by today’s educational technology and, thanks to our donors, ourclassrooms are equipped for the latest teaching methods. Our students are at easein today’s digital environment, and faculty use innovative ways to integratetechnology for both group projects and independent learning. Connecting withother cultures and young people in schools across the globe encourages andengages our students to become world citizens.
From senior kindergarten on, our students know how to work with information onSMART Boards (interactive white boards), while Upper School Global Scholars useprograms like Skype to talk to students halfway around the world in China.
20
Beyond the Academic Classroom – a wide range of opportunityIn addition to the broad range of curricular classes such as world languages at agethree and regular physical education, contributions help support a wide array ofart, music, and drama classes, as well as athletics, community service, Middle andUpper School clubs, and so much more. Thanks to the generosity of our donors,we can preserve and enhance these programs while other schools have been forcedto make cuts as they are faced with funding challenges.
As an example, annual gifts support a visit from an African drumming specialistwho brings the sounds of the continent into the classroom. They also allowstudents to visit the Milwaukee Art Museum, culminating in our fourth-graders’participation in the Museum’s Docent program, in which students prepare andpresent talks on their favorite artwork to parents and classmates.
Another area where annual gifts make a difference is the myriad professionaldevelopment opportunities that we can offer our faculty. (Please see article onthe following page.)
Thank you to all the donors who recognize the importance of makingan annual gift and how these funds make a difference in providingstudents with the forward-looking experiences that will benefit themfor a lifetime.

School was out for the summer…but our teachers were busy learning!Independent schools distinguish themselves by providingconsistent, high-quality professional developmentopportunities for faculty and staff. At University School,such continuing educational experiences not only benefitstudent achievement, they also are part of the foundationof a community of learners, where knowledge is sharednot only with students but also with other faculty membersand parents.
Thanks to our donors who support the Annual GivingProgram and the Endowment Fund, USM is fortunate to beable to offer a variety of ways that teachers can gainknowledge, stay abreast of change in the classroom byobserving best practices at similar schools, and createinnovative educational dialogue.
Gregg Bach, Assistant Head of School andchair of the school-wide ProfessionalDevelopment Committee, believes thesetypes of opportunities for our teachersenhance their skills and expertise and havea direct effect on teaching practices.“Research shows that teachers’ professional
development can improve student achievement when itfocuses on teachers’ knowledge of the subject matter and howstudents understand and learn it,” he affirms.
For example, as the School investigates the most effectiveapproaches to align educational technology with ouracademic program, professional development is an essentialpart of the process. Thanks to the Julia and David UihleinFaculty Enhancement Fund, faculty members have visitedexemplary schools and attended national conferences in thisfield. National consultants have also been brought to campusto present to our teachers. In August, over 90 USM teachersbenefited from an on-campus institute that taught facultyhow to become more proficient in classroom instructionusing individual computing devices.
The Dana Feitler Memorial Fund for Faculty Development,which was endowed in 1989 in memory of Dana, a 1983USM graduate, also provides faculty in all three divisions
with vital resources to attend national conferences, pursueadvanced degree credits, develop innovative curriculum, andshare ideas and techniques with peers.

Wright Family DistinguishedFaculty Endowment Fund
Gina Bongiorno, fourth-grade teacher
and Lower School chair of the Math
Department, and Chuck Taft,
eighth-grade history teacher and
Middle School History Department
Chair, have been selected as
recipients of the Wright Family
Distinguished Faculty Endowment
Fund for the 2011-2012 school year.
Established in 1992 by Jim Wright
MCD’39 and his nephew Charlie
Wright ’68, the Wright Fund serves
to reward members of the faculty who exemplify the
highest standards of independent school teaching. As
part of this distinguished award, each will receive a
one-time stipend and funding for a research grant of
their choosing. Bongiorno and Taft will then share their
research with students, faculty, and other members of
the School community.
Bongiorno is using her grant to research the use of
iPads in the classroom. In addition to reviewing how
and why other schools are using the device, this
summer she attended a session entitled “Power Up –
Connecting Technology to Today’s Learners,” which
was a pre-conference option at the National
Conference on Singapore Math Strategies, where many
sessions included a technology focus. Bongiorno
appreciates the professional development opportunities
afforded to her at USM. “Education is evolving so fast,”
she says. “This recent opportunity connected me to the
technology world and changes the way I teach.”
Taft is researching WWII’s Operation Overlord,
retracing the crucial event of the 20th century through
reading and travel, following the movement of
Overlord from England to the beaches of Normandy
and ending in Paris for liberation. Taft says he looks to
bring his experience, “Walking in the Footsteps of
Heroes and History,” to USM in many ways.
“Obviously, my classroom instruction will be enhanced
by this knowledge and experience,” he says, adding that
he also wants to present to the larger USM community
and build on his experience to renew the eighth-grade
service project for Honor Flights.

The USM Endowment Fund provides a vital source of financialsupport, crucial to the School’s long-term viability. We are gratefulto the many donors who support University School by giving to theEndowment Fund.
As of June 30, 2011, the Endowment Fund value exceeded$47 million, representing an increase of over $6 million from theprevious fiscal year total of $41 million. The Endowment provided$2.63 million to USM during the 2010-2011 school year to supportkey priorities including financial aid, faculty and staff compensation,curriculum, programs, and maintaining our 120-acre campus.
In light of the market corrections that have impacted theEndowment, the School continues to tread cautiously in its budgetplanning. The annual distribution from the Endowment is based ona trailing eight-quarter average, which has generally been limited toless than 5% of that average. The purpose of this policy is tomoderate the effect of market increases and decreases. As a result,the Trustees anticipate the Endowment distribution will remaindepressed in the short term, impacting the School’s annualoperating budget. In turn, the Finance Committee of the Board ofTrustees and the Administration continue to make the budgetadjustments necessary to offset the effects that market values haveon the Endowment distribution.
USM’s Endowment is invested with Commonfund, a non-profitinvestment management firm that serves over 2,000 independentschools, universities, and non-profit organizations. TheEndowment Board follows a long-term investment strategy callingfor a 75/25 equity to fixed income ratio with meaningfulinternational exposure and a careful commitment to alternativeinvestments such as private equity.

SUPPORTING USM
THROUGH
PHILANTHROPY
University School is grateful to the many
generous individuals and families whose
philanthropic support advances the School’s
mission in so many different ways.
Contributions to our Annual Giving
Program support an outstanding faculty and
staff, student financial aid, excellence in
academics, and innovative student
programs.
Gifts to the Endowment Fund provide for
the School’s future. Investment income from
our Endowment provides resources for
financial aid, faculty and staff professional
development and compensation, and
program support.
Charitable gift planning provides donors
opportunities to impact USM’s future, while
planning for their own financial futures.
Whether donors are seeking to satisfy
current income and estate tax needs,
prepare for retirement, or make low-yield
assets more productive, a well-crafted
planned gift can be an invaluable part of an
individual’s financial and charitable planning.
Through careful planning today, donors can
leave a legacy far beyond their expectations.
Donors and friends will find helpful
information about a variety of charitable
gift planning options online at
www.usmk12.org/plannedgiving.

Message From Jodie Tonner, Director of Advancement –Moving Forward Through Philanthropy
Recently, a school parent stopped by my office to talk about philanthropy at UniversitySchool. Out of general curiosity and specific interest, he asked insightful questions ongovernance, finances, and School operations, and where philanthropy fit into the picture.Although it was not our original intent, it turned out that he and I had an importantconversation about the many distinctive aspects that define independent education.
As an adjective, the word “independent” takes on several meanings for USM, includingautonomy, self-governance, and no public-funding support. Yet I particularly like thefollowing definition, especially as it relates to our financial independence: “not depending onsomething else for strength and effectiveness.”
Charitable contributions whether through Annual, Endowment, or Planned gifts provide thenecessary, additional financial resources – over and above tuition – that keep USM strong andeffective. Whether for faculty and staff professional development, classroom instruction,athletics, extracurricular activities, financial aid, or campus maintenance, charitablecontributions provide the additional resources that make it possible for USM to offer ourstudents an outstanding education.
We are grateful to our parents, alumni, and other friends who give in support of ourindependence. Thank you to all our donors who help keep us strong and effective.
