Message from the Head of School and 

“In 2020, EB is the premier bilingual school and the recognized model 

for global education, known for graduating passionate learners and 

ethical world citizens committed to EB for life.” 

Like everyone else who was part of EB’s Forum on April 30, we were deeply 

impressed by the dedication and collective strength of our community. It is rare to 

have an opportunity for parents, faculty and staff, trustees, alumni and alumni families 

to come together and articulate our common aspirations for the school and our 

children, and the vision statement resulting from the Forum goes to the heart of our 

shared values and goals. 

“In 2020, EB is the premier bilingual school and the recognized model for global 

education, known for graduating passionate learners and ethical world citizens 

committed to EB for life.” 

Anyone familiar with EB can give many examples of our students’ active participation 

in the world around them. A few from this year: 

• Our seventh and eighth grade students showed admirable critical thinking skills in producing insightful, wellpresented 

projects for National History Day. EB sent 14 students to the county competition, and eight of them were 

selected to go to state championships. 

• The Green Council at the Middle School continued their efforts to educate their fellow students about environmental 

sustainability. They worked to reduce energy use and (along with the Lower School) held weekly waste-free lunch days. 

• Our students and teachers raised $4,200 for earthquake and tsunami relief in Japan, showing their concern for those 

affected by the disaster. 

Our alumni demonstrated global citizenship as well—see page 13 to learn more about several of our recent graduates.

the Chair of the Board of Trustees 

With your help, we will continue to promote the exceptional work of our students 

and our faculty, so that we can build EB’s reputation in the Bay Area and beyond. 

In other school news, “The Campus Campaign – Our Moment” continues 

to build momentum. As of this writing, we have raised almost $1.6 million 

towards our goal of $2.75 million. Gifts have come from every sector of the EB 

community: founders, present and past Trustees, current families, alumni families, 

grandparents, faculty and staff. This ongoing generosity brings us closer to our 

goal of owning all of our facilities and creating a campus that is worthy of our 

academic programs. 

Our community’s continued support of other fundraising efforts like the Annual 

Fund and the Auction is also remarkable. Thanks to your strong spirit of 

philanthropy, we have been able to maintain exceptional programs and innovative 

faculty professional development initiatives while offering financial aid to families impacted by the economic 

downturn. 

The Board’s talent, expertise, dedication, and willingness to build consensus are a tremendous asset to the school. We 

are happy to welcome Peter Secor, faculty representative Corinne Pluche, and PA Co-Presidents Tammy Brown and 

Juliette Glover to the Board of Trustees, and we look forward to working with them. We would like to extend our 

thanks to outgoing Trustees Valérie Bishop, Marie-José Sat and Jacqueline Van Lang. 

With such a dedicated community, there’s no end to what we can accomplish for EB and, more importantly, for our 

students.

Message du Chef d’établissement et de la 

Le 30 avril dernier, lors du Forum d’EB, nous avons pu, comme tous les autres 

participants, admirer le dévouement et la cohésion de notre communauté. Ces 

rencontres, qui permettent aux parents, enseignants, membres du personnel, 

anciens élèves et leurs familles, de mettre en commun leurs aspirations pour l’avenir 

de l’école et des élèves, sont rares. Les perspectives qui se sont dégagées du Forum 

s’inscrivent au cœur de nos valeurs et objectifs communs : 

“En 2020, EB est l’école bilingue de référence reconnue pour son modèle 

d’éducation internationale et pour former des apprenants passionnés et des citoyens 

du monde responsables, attachés à EB pour la vie.” 

Nos élèves participent activement au monde qui les entoure. Tous ceux qui 

connaissent EB pourront en attester, en citant, par exemple, pour cette seule 

année : 

• L’esprit critique remarquable dont nos élèves de 5ème et de 4ème ont fait preuve 

dans la réalisation de leurs projets, lors de la Journée Nationale de l’Histoire. EB a 

présenté 14 élèves au concours régional et 8 d’entre eux ont été sélectionnés pour 

participer aux finales au niveau de la Californie. 

• Le Conseil Environnemental du collège a continué sa campagne visant à 

sensibiliser les élèves au développement durable. Ses membres ont travaillé sur les 

économies d’énergie et en collaboration avec l’école primaire, ils ont mis en place le 

programme hebdomadaire « zéro gaspillage au déjeuner ». 

• Les élèves et les professeurs de l’école ont levé 4 200 dollars pour venir en aide 

aux sinistrés du tremblement de terre et du tsunami japonais, faisant ainsi preuve de 

leur esprit solidaire. 

• Les anciens élèves ont, eux aussi, démontré leur esprit citoyen—voir le portrait de 

plusieurs de nos anciens élèves à la page 13. 

Avec votre aide, nous allons continuer de promouvoir le travail exceptionnel de nos 

élèves et de nos enseignants, pour construire la réputation d’EB dans la région de la 

Baie et au-delà.

RAPPORT ANNUEL 2010–2011

RAPPORT ANNUEL 2010–2011 

Présidente du Conseil d’Administration 

L’actualité de l’école est aussi marquée par “The Campus Campaign – Our 

Moment” qui continue de prendre de l’ampleur. À ce jour, nous avons réuni près 

de 1,6 millions sur les 2,75 millions de dollars nécessaires. Les dons viennent de 

tous les milieux de la communauté d’EB : fondateurs, membres présents et anciens 

du CA, familles d’élèves et d’anciens élèves, grands-parents, enseignants et membres 

du personnel. Cette générosité constante nous rapproche chaque jour de notre 

objectif de devenir propriétaire de tous nos locaux et de posséder un campus à la 

hauteur de nos programmes scolaires. 

Le soutien permanent que nous apporte notre communauté sur d’autres projets de 

levée de fonds, comme par exemple le Fonds Annuel ou la Vente aux Enchères, est 

également formidable. Grâce à votre philanthropie, nous parvenons à pérenniser 

des programmes exceptionnels et innovants, à soutenir les projets de formation 

professionnelle de nos enseignants, et enfin à offrir une aide financière aux familles 

touchées par la crise. 

Grâce aux compétences, à l’expertise, au dévouement et au travail d’équipe , le 

Conseil d’administration constitue une véritable force pour l’école. Nous avons le 

plaisir d’y accueillir Peter Secor, Corinne Pluche, la représentante des enseignants, 

ainsi que Tammy Brown et Juliette Glover, les Co-présidentes de l’Association 

des parents d’élèves. Par ailleurs, nous souhaitons remercier les membres sortants 

: Valérie Bishop, Marie-José Sat et Jacqueline Van Lang. 

Épaulés par une communauté aussi dévouée, nous nous sentons capables des 

plus grandes réalisations pour EB et, surtout, pour nos élèves.

Keep in Touch! 


Global Citizens: EB Alumni in Senegal 

In June 2011, Savannah Van Leuvan Smith (EB Class of 2007; currently a 

freshman at Wesleyan University), Lila Elias, Amadou Diallo, and Madeline Fox 

(class of 2008) went to Senegal as part of an exchange program organized by St. 

Mary’s College High School. They spent a week in Dakar and a week in Palmarin, 

a village on the coast. While in Dakar, they visited the Ile de Gorée and toured its 

famous “maison des esclaves.” They also visited the two children whose education 

their French class at St. Mary’s has been supporting for the past few years through 

ChildFund International. They met the families of both students, and toured one 

of their schools. 

In Palmarin, they worked with the Peace Corps on projects such as installing 

water pipes and painting a school. The students stayed with host families, were 

immersed in local culture, and felt very warmly welcomed. “My experience in 

Senegal was amazing, very powerful,” said Savannah. She explained that not only 

did being fluent in French help her connect with her host family and others, but 

that thanks to her time at EB, her familiarity with francophone Africa began years 

before the trip. Lila Elias agreed: “When you go to EB, even if you don’t have any 

French lineage, you feel like you’re part of the francophone world. So I didn’t feel 

like a stranger in Senegal.” 

We are proud to see our alumni “at home in the world,” and look forward to 

hearing about their future adventures.

Finance and Advancement Report 

I am pleased to report we ended the fiscal year in solid financial shape. Our school 

made significant progress during the 2010–2011 school year, as our community 

bond continues to strengthen. We enjoy record levels of enrollment and diversity, 

low faculty turnover and strong charitable giving. 

EB recorded a positive result of $8,500 for the year ending June 30, 2011. 

In addition, we raised $247,000 in generous contributions to “The Campus 

Campaign – Our Moment,” EB’s Capital Campaign. As of the end of June 2011, 

our school has raised almost $1.6 million toward this capital fundraising effort. 

We remain focused on continuing our efforts to complete this campaign, and to 

bringing successful conclusion to this phase of our Long-Range Facilities Master 

Plan. Along with our Capital Campaign fundraising efforts, we achieved many 

other remarkable results and we are most grateful to so many members of our 

community for being a vital part in generating: 

• $534,000 in unrestricted gifts raised through our regular annual giving efforts, 

including the Annual Fund, the Auction and La Place du Marché/Raffle. 

Comparable to last year, our school reported a 90% participation rate of current 

families. 

• $63,000 in restricted gifts towards financial aid funds, the Endowment Fund, and 

other designated funds. 

Our fiscal policies and actions during the year continued to reflect our 

commitment to EB’s mission of providing an exceptional bilingual education to a 

diverse group of students. Specifically, two key elements guided our efforts: 

• Promoting excellence in the classroom by providing the resources necessary to 

support faculty, enhance academic programs, improve facilities, and strengthen 

the school’s long-term future. 

• Supporting educational affordability and economic diversity through prudent 

fiscal management, a balanced operating budget, continued development of nontuition 

revenues, and ongoing support of financial aid programs. 

Many exciting accomplishments were made and milestones were created during 

the 2010–2011 school year. So much of our achievement is the result of your 

tremendous gifts of talent and time, along with financial contributions from our 

entire school community. We extend our sincerest gratitude for your support and 

look forward to our continued partnership together with great enthusiasm and 

confidence. 

Sincerely, 

Thomas Clydesdale 

Treasurer

The Campus Campaign 

The Campus Campaign aims to accomplish Phase II of 

EB’s acquisition and building plan by acquiring a new 

property in the neighborhood and transforming the existing 

Lower School playground. This will bring about a longdesired 

upgrade of our students’ outdoor play area and the 

improvement of outdoor facilities for Lower and Middle 

School students. 

The path to ownership of our school properties began with 

the purchase of our Lower School Campus in early 2009 

(Phase I of the acquisition and building plan). In March 

2010, we purchased the entire building of the Middle 

School along with the outdoor playground and parking lot. 

Negotiations to purchase the warehouse on 9th Street are in 

process and we are making good progress. 

The EB Campus 


16 

Our Lower School playground, along with this new 

warehouse property, will be redesigned (see photo next 

page) to introduce more grass, trees, and other plantings to 

our campus and to allow more athletic and creative use of 

the space, for the benefit of our children. 

Thank you to the generous donors of “The Campus 

Campaign—Our Moment” who are supporting the 

expansion and improvement of EB’s campus, for the benefit 

of generations of students. As of June 2011, the school 

raised almost $1.6 million from 86 donors. Another $1.18 

million is needed to reach the $2.75 million campaign goal. 

If you would like more information about the Campus 

Campaign, please contact Florence Kragen, Director of 

Advancement, at fkragen@eb.org or at (510) 549-3867.

AWARd 2011 

The EB Citizenship Award 

recognizes EB Middle School 

persons whose outstanding service 

supports, strengthens and sustains 

the EB community and the broader 

communities in which they participate. 

It exemplifies the hope that, at their 

best, EB graduates will not simply be 

“at home in the world,” but will also 

demonstrate the courage, compassion, 

and capacity to make the world a 

better home. 

Candidates for the Citizenship Award 

were nominated by students, faculty 

and parents at the Middle School. Out 

of many nominees, Allegra Sasser 

(Class of 2012) was chosen for her 

commitment to community service 

and her positive influence on other 

students. Allegra’s name was engraved 

on a plaque located at the Middle 

School, and the alumni family who 

instituted this award made a $1,000 

donation to EB’s Endowment in 

Allegra’s honor. 

Allegra Sasser received the Citizenship Award 2011 

from Frédéric Canadas, Head of School

ClASS of 2011 


The students and families of the Class of 

2011 raised a total of $11,840 for the 

EB Endowment Fund through a combination 

of student-based fundraising, a 

matching grant tied to student fundraising, 

donations from families, and the $1,000 

donation honoring recipients of the EB 

Citizenship Award. We thank the Class 

of 2011 for their inspirational efforts, and 

hope that in the years to come they will 

continue to support EB and the communities 

in which they participate.

in Memoriam 

Soraya Vorster, an alumna from the EB class of 1991, passed away in early 

January while working in Thailand. Soraya’s warmth, joie de vivre and generous 

spirit were immediately apparent to anyone who met her. Soraya studied 

Archaeology and Cultural Anthropology at UC Davis, then went on to earn a 

Master’s in Education from St. Mary’s College. She pursued her passion for travel 

and world cultures by leading and organizing expeditions all over the world for 

Backroads, where she had worked since 2001. She was also a substitute teacher 

at EB from 2003 through 2010. Our hearts go out to her parents, Ted and Anna 

Vorster, and to her husband, Tony Pandola. 

Philippe Moura, who taught fourth and fifth grade at EB from 1994 to 2009, 

passed away in December 2010. His kindness, his professionalism and his 

generosity were appreciated by all. He was loved by students as much as he loved 

them. For them, he was the architect of our fifth grade exchange program, which 

later became the model for our eighth grade program. We are grateful for his 

contributions to EB’s programs, and for the attention that he gave to many years 

of students who knew him and benefited from his teaching, his dedication and his 

unique sense of humor. Philippe is survived by his wife Colette Lapeyre, and is 

greatly missed in the EB community. 

Georges Vitry, who was part of the EB faculty for 29 years, passed away in 

January 2011. Georges started at EB in 1978, during the school’s second year. He 

first taught third and fourth grade, then P.E. for seventeen years, before becoming 

the Librarian, first at the lower school, and then at the middle school. We are 

grateful for all his contributions to EB, for his great humor and spirit, and for all 

the attention he gave to students for so many years. Georges is survived by his wife 

Margaret and his children: Marie-Christine (EB Class of 1983) and Charles.
