w e s t r i d g e s c h o o l

W e s t r i d g e s c h o o l is an independent, forward-thinking girls’ school committed to educating

intellectually adventurous thinkers, and courageous, compassionate leaders.

Our purpose is to prepare young women to live lives of meaning, contribution, and impact.

Dear Members of the Westridge Community,

Annual reports present wonderful opportunities to reflect on the accomplishments of a single year. Indeed, in the 2014-2015 school year, we witnessed important innovation and progress as an institution and fulfillment of our mission and strategic vision.

For example, the STEAMWork Design Studio was developed and a tablet computer program introduced, both of which offer opportunities for creative, interdisciplinary, and inquiry-based learning. We worked to support the physical and emotional development of girls through an innovative new physical edu-cation program and expansion of the Peer-to-Peer counseling program. After several years of study, our tuition model was thoughtfully revised in order to support the long-term fiscal strength of Westridge and better meet the needs of our fami-lies. We are particularly pleased by innovations in campus-wide teaching and learning. During the year, we focused on an en-during, defining factor of a Westridge education—that we are deeply committed to helping girls develop the clear values and strong voices that empower them as future leaders; as young women who purposefully work to impact the people in their lives and communities of which they are a part.

The year’s overarching conversation, framed at Convocation and reflected in the student government annual theme, was of Westridge’s core values of integrity, respect, responsibility, and inclusion. It continued with the November introduction of our strategic plan, Westridge in the 21st Century: Educating and Empowering Girls to Lead Lives of Courage, Compassion, and Conviction. And it was present throughout the year in conversa-tions in classrooms and student life programs, and in meetings with the adults in our community.

(continued)

from the head & board chair 1

The commitment of the adults in the Westridge community not only to foster our shared values in our girls but to embrace and model those values in their own lives, is also a defining characteristic of Westridge. One way we see that demonstrated is in the incredible generosity of our community of parents, alumnae, faculty and staff, and friends. Your con-tributions to Westridge allow us to focus on our exceptional academic programs without losing focus on the vital, human side of a Westridge education.

This year, your generosity reached new heights with more than $4.1 mil-lion in new gifts and pledges. We are particularly gratified by the early and very generous support of The Campaign for Our Second Century, which will build a more robust endowment. The school’s endowment as-sures the future of Westridge into its next century by providing support to the programs and faculty that distinguish Westridge. We are grateful for your continued support and understanding of the critical role that philanthropy plays in independent schools.

As exemplified by the inspiring students and alumnae profiled in this re-port, it is true that “lives of impact begin at Westridge.” Westridge girls are poised and ready to contribute here on campus and as they move on in their lives. Your impact as active members of our community and generous supporters of our school makes this possible. It is felt today and will reverberate through generations of students to come — and for that we give our thanks.

Sincerely,

Jennifer T. Lum Elizabeth J. McGregorChair, Board of Trustees Head of School

Philanthropic support allows Westridge to invest in exceptional teaching and pro-

grams ensuring excellence in classrooms while continually advancing its curricu-

lum for students of today and tomorrow. Following are 10 ways your investment

in Westridge supported growth and excellence at our school during the 2014-

2015 school year.

1 Strategic Plan In a community wide undertaking, Westridge launched

its new, five-year strategic plan, setting the course for the school to remain

a leader in girls’ education in its second 100 years. Entitled Westridge in the 21st

Century: Educating and Empowering Girls to Lead Lives of Courage, Compassion,

and Conviction, the strategic plan outlines how Westridge plans to educate and

empower girls, engage its community, and ensure its future, all while remaining

true to the school’s core values of integrity, respect, responsibility, and inclusion.

Global studies, innovation and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and

math), and becoming a center for learning and research in girls education are just

a few of the growth areas identified for Westridge. The entire report is available

online at www.westridge.org/strategicplan or by calling 626-799-1053 ext. 264.

2 STEAMWork Design Studio The Rothenberg Technology Center in the

Main Building was transformed from a computer lab into the STEAMWork

Design Studio, a makerspace centered on technology that offers opportunities

for hands-on work creating, inventing, and collaborating with others. The Studio,

equipped with 3D printers, lathes, CNC machines, and 3D scanners, promotes

design thinking and interdisciplinary opportunities while exposing girls to 3D de-

sign and printing, coding and robotics, and electronics and circuitry. Generous

gifts from alumna Lucy Larkin Stephenson ’58 and a donor who wishes to remain

anonymous made the Studio possible.

3 1:1 Tablet Computer Program The sixth grade piloted a 1:1 tablet pro-

gram utilizing Yoga Ultrabooks. The program’s goals were to support creative

learning by actively engaging students in the process of creating knowledge and

to foster more individualized learning. That it did. From highly creative projects to

new, productive forms of student-teacher interaction (including audio and video

feedback on assignments), the students benefited from the new technology. The

program will expand by one grade each year as it moves forward with students.

In the 2015-2016 school year, students in both the sixth and seventh grades have

personal devices.

4 Rethinking Classroom Design In an effort to enhance girls’ learning

through the creative use of physical and virtual space, several classrooms

and other spaces were renovated, including Christine Kiphart’s sixth grade class-

room. Rows of desks, tables, and desktop computer stations were removed to

make space for an array of seating options and work areas. This created a flexible,

comfortable learning environment more suitable for the project-based, active cur-

riculum present in today’s humanities classrooms. The new design also provides

options for students’ varied learning styles and needs, and Ms. Kiphart reports

that the change has positively impacted student engagement and focus. During

the summer of 2015, both seventh grade humanities classrooms were similarly

redesigned.

5 Summer Program In June 2015, Westridge introduced a new Westridge

Summer Program, which is open to students from Westridge as well as other

schools. In its extremely popular Creative Coding class for girls entering grades

3-8, students learned how to build and program robots, while taking advantage

of all the tools within the Design Studio. Other Summer Program opportunities

included Science, Service, & Leadership for middle school students, and a Global

Perspectives travel program for Westridge Upper School students. Look for an

expanded curriculum in the program’s second year.

6 Assistant Head of School Position Re-envisioned for 21st Century Education Jemma Giddings joined Westridge in June of 2014 as the new

assistant head of school. With her arrival, the position of assistant head is focused

on curriculum design and innovation, and faculty support and professional devel-

opment. In her first year, among many other assignments, Giddings led develop-

ment of the STEAMWork Design Studio and the Summer Program, both of strate-

gic importance for our students and our school.

7 Expansion of Alumnae Programs Westridge’s new Director of Alumnae

Affairs, Lisa Vandergriff, made it a priority to increase opportunities for alum-

nae to connect with each other and the school. In January 2015, the first in a series

of events designed to engage alumnae in on-campus learning experiences was a

wild success. The three-week Alumnae Ceramics Course was taught by long-time

Westridge instructor Juanita Jimenez. After a warm reception to this “test” class,

the Alumnae Board is expanding on-campus educational opportunities this year,

and has developed an alumnae networking program on its webpage.

8 Reimagined Upper School PE Program Driven by Westridge’s com-

mitment to support girls in leading physically active and emotionally healthy

lives, the Upper School PE curriculum underwent major changes in 2014-2015.

Based on studies that point to the importance of aerobic exercise on mental

health, girls now meet three times a rotation for PE. Instead of choosing a single

area for an entire semester, students now participate in a robust variety of exer-

cises not often found in schools including Zumba, spin, Kung Fusion (a fusion of

martial arts), and yoga. Besides the obvious physical benefits of increased exer-

cise, the new PE program yields mental benefits that keep minds alert, focused,

and ready to learn.

9 College Counseling Program Expansion The Westridge College Coun-

seling program continues to add to its arsenal of events and support pro-

grams for students as they research and apply to colleges and universities. Last

year the department hosted more than 25 events for students and families and

welcomed 130 college representatives to Madeline Drive. Student college place-

ment results were exceptional. The 63 members of the Class of 2015 earned 371

acceptances to 162 different colleges and universities; 89% who applied early

action gained acceptances. Please see the college matriculation list for the Class

of 2015 on page 58 of this report.

10 Peer-to-Peer Program Growth Peer-to-Peer is a ground-

breaking Upper School leadership program and elective course.

Students explore issues related to adolescence, including social dynamics

and academic pressure, and commit to helping other students using skills

they learn. In its second year, the 2014-2015 school year, Peer-to-Peer ex-

panded to include an advanced class. Advanced students co-teach the

Beginning Peer-to-Peer class, and also create and implement community

enrichment programs within Westridge, including the first Middle School

affinity group for students of African descent, craft programs for Lower

School students, and math/science tutoring and support for Upper School

and Middle School students.

These programs are but a handful of highlights from an incredible year at

Westridge, above and beyond the creative and important work being done

by faculty and students in our classrooms each day, all year. The Performing

Arts Department staged Hamlet, Rabbit Hole, Into the Woods, and Number the Stars. In athletics, four teams went to playoffs and 15 individuals went on

to championship play, Middle School soccer was the undefeated Indepen-

dent League Champion, and our lacrosse program added a junior varsity

team to handle burgeoning interest. Kim Phuc, “the girl in the picture” from

the Vietnam War, led the campus speakers series. Water Warriors, Petridge,

and the Yam Festival maintained their important places in the heart of our

community, along with numerous events and programs that help make

Westridge the special school it is.

f impact

There is no fi ner example of living a life of impact than that of

James F. Rothenberg, long-time Westridge Trustee, former Board

chair, and parent of two Westridge alumnae (Katie Rothenberg Wei ’94

and Erin Rothenberg Baker ’96).

In addition to his role as chairman of Capital Group Companies, Jim

was a visionary and generous leader of non-profi ts across Pasadena,

Los Angeles, and the country, including Caltech, the Huntington

Library and Gardens, Huntington Hospital, the J. Paul Getty Trust, and

Harvard University.

Westridge was privileged to be counted among the institutions

impacted by Jim’s leadership and generosity. As a trustee from 1988

through 2004, Jim’s expertise in governance, fi nancial planning and

operations were key factors in positioning the school for the future.

As philanthropists, Jim and his wife Anne shaped the Westridge of

today. The Anne F. and James F. Rothenberg Humanities Center, The

Performing Arts Center, the Rothenberg Family Technology Center

in the Main Building, the entire North Campus including the Science

Building, and the annual Summer Opportunities Fair all continue as

testimony to the Rothenbergs’ leadership and vision.

At a recent event, Elizabeth McGregor described Jim as Westridge’s

North Star, saying, “we will miss his wisdom, guidance, and sage ad-

vice. He was instrumental in helping the school set a strong course for

its future, and establishing a standard for all of us in helping Westridge

to remain a center of educational excellence for generations of girls.”

We will miss Jim’s leadership and wise counsel, but most of all,

we will miss his friendship.

Performed research on how to start a composting business as part of a class assignment, but took it a step further by inventing, building, and eventually selling her EZPZ Composters, and expanding the assignment into her Commu-nity Action Project. Became more involved by volunteering with LA Compost, conducting additional research and presenting her find-ings to the LA Compost, Los Ange-les Natural History Museum, and USC communities.

Go on and do all

you can with it,

and make it the life

you want to live.

Inspired by her experience on the first Girl Scouts rocketry team entered in a Team America Rocketry Competition to encourage Westridge girls to get in-volved in STEM. As a sophomore, helped start the school’s Rocketry Club, which has since combined with the Science Olympiad Club to form the basis of the Engineering and Design Upper School elective. As a junior, mentored the Westridge Rocketry Team, and remains a member the ever-expanding team as a senior. Spent last summer interning at the Jet Propulsion Lab, assisting the scientists who control the Mars Rover and helping build rover models used in museums and school demonstrations.

class of 2016

peer counselor

Founding member of the Peer-to-Peer counseling program on campus. Felt there was a need for a safe and ap-proachable resource for younger stu-dents — one that wasn’t their favorite internet search engine — to receive help with “the everyday things” faced by adolescent girls. Launched a web-site that allows seventh and eighth graders to ask questions and seek ad-vice anonymously. Along with a small core group of trained peer counselors, thoughtfully answers each question. Wants her fellow Tigers to know that there is nothing wrong with seeking help, no matter how big or small the issue might be, and aims to help break that stigma.

alumnae giving

Members of the Young Alumnae Circle are committed to raising awareness about the importance of giving back to Westridge and to reuniting alumnae through social activities and programs. The group is comprised of graduates from the past 10 years, Classes of 2004—2014.

The group’s mission is:• To recognize recent graduates who make annual gifts that set the

standard for other young Westridge alumnae.• To create opportunities for young alumnae to network, socialize,

and build relationships.• To ensure a strong alumnae community.

We are pleased to recognize our current Young Alumnae donors:

parentsof alumnaeParents of Alumnae, including those whose daughter(s) may have attended only a

few years, to those whose daughter(s) graduated in 2015, remain strong supporters of Westridge. Parentheses indicate the daughter’s graduation year — some our our Parents of Alumnae have as many as four Westridge alumnae and some are Current Parents who also have a Westridge graduate in the family. We are grateful to all those who continue to contribute to Westridge.

Don’t be afraid of hard work.

Nothing worthwhile comes easily.

Don’t let others discourage you or tell you that you can’t do it.

In my day I was told women didn’t go into chemistry.

I saw no reason why we couldn’t.

Philanthropy is vital to the support of Westridge School’s mission. The school wel-comes your belief in its mission to provide the highest quality education to young women, and provides a variety of ways to maximize the impact of your gift. All gifts to Westridge are tax-deductible.

Please do not hesitate to contact the Advancement Office with any questions, or to make arrangements for a gift.

CASH Current cash gifts are deductible for income tax purposes to the full extent allowed by law, and may be made with cash, checks, or credit card. Pledge pay-ments may be arranged.

APPRECIATED SECURITIESIf you own stocks or other capital assets that have appreciated in value, a gift of those securities to Westridge can result in significant tax savings. You may be able to obtain a tax deduction for the full value of the gift and avoid paying the tax on the gain you would have had if you were to sell the asset.

MEMORIAL OR HONORARY GIFTSGifts may be given in honor or memory of a friend or a family member or in recognition of a significant event.

UNITED WAY Westridge may be designated as the recipient of your United Way contribution. Simply list the school’s name and address on your United Way pledge form. Pro-cessing charges may be imposed by United Way.

DONATE YOUR CARWestridge accepts donation proceeds from many organizations that will pur-chase your vehicle. A donor may wish to sell their car to these organizations with the proceeds of the sale going to Westridge.

CHARITABLE GIFT ANNUITIES* Through the California Community Foundation Westridge is able to offer chari-table gift annuities — a very attractive planned gift. In exchange for a gift of cash or stock you will be paid a guaranteed lifetime income. You also receive an immediate charitable tax deduction and a portion of each income payment is considered to be a tax-free return of principal.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTSName Westridge as a beneficiary of your retirement plan and leave less-taxed assets to family.

OTHER PLANNED GIFTS*Westridge also accepts planned or deferred gifts through bequests, charitable trusts, life insurance, or pension plans. A donor may wish to consider these gift vehicles as a way to reduce or avoid estate and inheritance taxes. Planned or deferred gifts are recognized through The Madeline Society (page 55).

*A tax consultant is your best advisor in designing a giving plan for the benefit of Westridge. However, to explore the various ways to make contributions, contact the Advancement Office at 626.799.1053, ext. 261.

Founded in 1990, Partnership for Success! (PFS!), formerly Skills Enrichment Program, is a partnership between the Pasadena Unified School District and four local independent schools (Polytechnic, Mayfield Junior, Chandler, and Westridge). Each summer, PFS! provides an intensive, five-week enrichment program to approximately 400 public-school students who are chosen by their school principals based on academic promise and financial need. Once students are selected in their fourth grade year, they remain in the program for eight consecutive summers. This long-term commitment between PFS! and its students is essential to the program’s success. During their time in PFS!, students build their skills in math, science, and language arts. All graduate high school and virtually all graduates of PFS! go on to attend college, most at four-year institutions.

Westridge School hosts an all-girls experience for students in grades five and six. During their two summers at Westridge, students take a variety of academic classes to boost their math and verbal skills, preparing for success in middle school. Classes are small (averaging 20 students) and their teachers are joined in the classroom by high school and college-age interns, half of whom are themselves graduates of PFS!. In addition to academic enrichment courses, PFS! students at Westridge have the opportunity to take classes in art, music, multimedia creation, and technology. Field trips provide adventures in the com-munity, and our annual Etiquette Tea gives the girls a chance to dress up and attend a special event with a featured speaker. Daily physical education classes and Friday swim days balance the summer days with exercise.

This program is provided at no cost to the student. Funds are raised from individuals, corporations, and foundations. Contributions are made by the four member schools as well as the Westridge Parent Association. With the gener-ous support of those listed, this valuable and successful program continues to benefit hundreds of students each year.

change agents in training

Working on making an impact of its own with a year-long project called “Think, Care, Act.” This fall, brainstormed their strengths, thought about problems they wanted to help solve, and used their strengths to take action. For inspiration, read Chelsea Clinton’s, “It’s Your World: Get Informed, Get Inspired & Get Going!,” and listened to a classmate speak about the Syrian refugee crisis and what she is doing to help affected children. Some students have raised money (including asking for charitable donations instead of birthday gifts!) and awareness for their causes; others have been growing out their hair for Locks of Love, making thank-you cards for rangers protecting endan-gered species, volunteering in their com-munities, making dog toys for their local humane societies, and making hygiene kits for refugees.
