3 I. INTRODUCTION At the invitation of the Board of Trustees of Episcopal School of Jacksonville, FORD & ASSOCIATES conducted a Feasibility Study to test the likelihood of successfully conducting a $15 million capital campaign for construction/renovation. This is a Report Summary of the Final Report, which was submitted to the Board on February 26, II. KEY FACTORS The Feasibility Study focused on a number of key factors, which included the following: A. Measuring reaction to the stated campaign objectives and the degree to which they are important to Episcopal s constituents. B. Seeking an indication of financial support that Episcopal can expect from those who were interviewed and extrapolating accordingly. III. METHODOLOGY With the assistance of Missy Ketchum and Charley Zimmer, a list of potential inperson interview candidates was prepared. The list consisted of trustees, alumni, parents, grandparents, parents of alumni, faculty/staff, and friends of the School. These individuals were selected on the basis of their past, current, and potential involvement with Episcopal. In addition to the in-person interviews, a list was developed of those who would receive a direct mail questionnaire, which would enable the study to analyze a broader segment of Episcopal s constituency. The overall response rate was eleven percent (11%). Results of the in person and direct mail responses were merged and assessed. We prepared pertinent commendations, concerns, observations, and recommendations on the basis of the results and compared with other independent schools. IV. CONCLUSIONS A. COMMENDATIONS 1. There is a very strong commitment to and association with the School. 89% of inperson and 67% of direct mail participants said they have been associated with the School for five years or longer % of in-person participants and 97% of direct mail respondents stated that their overall attitude towards the School is good to excellent. 3.

B. OBSERVATIONS 1. 76% of in-person respondents and 70% of direct mail respondents stated that their children attended another independent school. A relatively long list of 54 independent schools reflects the study responses. 2. A number of areas at the School in need of improvement were mentioned, including (listed in alphabetical order): a. Academics (too rigorous or not rigorous enough)/curriculum is not cutting edge b. Athletic facilities/facilities/classrooms are dated c. Athletic program/athletics funding/football team d.

6 o. Security p. Technology q. Visual arts 4. 30% of in-person and 12% of direct mail participants said that they have relationships with family, corporate, or charitable foundations that might be likely to support the School. 10 foundations and were mentioned. Only 2 trustees responded yes to this question. C. CONCERNS 1. 62% of in-person participants and 31% of direct mail participants said they could think of factors that might keep Episcopal from conducting a successful capital campaign. The factors most often cited were (listed in alphabetical order): a. Athletic focus/lack of academic or endowment focus b. Donor reluctance/lack of giving power c. Economy d. Headmaster/leadership situation e. Lack of need/too ambitious f. Multiple Episcopal/diocese/other campaigns g. Tuition price/value 2. 41% of in-person and 73% of direct mail participants evaluated the current philanthropic climate at Episcopal as either good or excellent. D. RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Based on the results of the study, we recommend that the School move forward with a capital campaign. 2. In order to preserve its integrity, the Annual Fund should be conducted separately from the campaign. 3. We strongly suggest that the campaign include an endowment component and consideration of a small but meaningful academic component. 4. Due to the School's upcoming 50th Anniversary, we recommend that campaign marketing include this connection, and that the timing of the campaign include a celebratory ribbon cutting and/or announcement of a transformational gift, perhaps to endowment % of in-person respondents and 72% of direct mail respondents felt that the Head of School should be heavily involved in the process of cultivating and participating in the solicitation of prospective campaign donors on a case-by-case basis. Therefore, we recommend that Charley Zimmer be deployed as campaign spokesman as often as possible. He should be used on a case-by-case basis in prospect management. 6. Accordingly, we recommend that expectations of the Head of School by the Board, faculty, and parents must be adjusted during the campaign. FORD & ASSOCIATES 4 Comprehensive Development Counsel
7 7. A series of Campus Planning Updates should be offered to all current parents, alumni and friends where the Board Chair, Head of School and selected others can make brief presentations and answer questions. 8. Planned Gifts should be proactively sought for the campaign. In that regard, campaign volunteers will be trained to recognize and respond to prospects that can make Planned Gifts. E. CONSULTANTS FINAL COMMENTS Episcopal offers a distinctive combination of faith-based, nurturing, and strong college preparatory academic leadership in the Jacksonville area. There is much about the School, its people, and programs that has been and continues to be distinctive, including a very strong sense of institutional support following a devastating event. The School has established and maintains a solid and favorable reputation among its constituency. Furthermore, the School s 50 th Anniversary offers a celebratory opportunity to strengthen the timing and marketing of a capital campaign. Overall confidence in the administrative team is strong, in great measure due to the leadership of and loyalty to the Head of School. Our analysis indicates that although certainly no guarantee, there is significant potential for a successful capital campaign. Therefore, once Episcopal s objectives have been clarified, and consideration given to the inclusion of endowment, we have every reason to believe that the suggested goal can be met with proper guidance from staff, donors, and volunteers. It has been a pleasure working with Episcopal s staff and volunteers. We look forward to a continued association with the School.
