ON THE COVERArtwork by Lillian A. ‘19

In Cultural History class, seventh graders learn about the glyph-based writing system employedby the ancient Maya. In their Visual Arts class, they create their own glyphs, imitating the Mayastyle by incorporating animals and symbols that are important to them, as the Maya did.

2013-2014学年是罗斯学校激动人心的一年。我们不断完善的螺旋形课程继续给学生们提供一个无与伦比的学习体验和经历，推动我们去迎接挑战，成

为具有创新性和前瞻性的学校。与此同时，我们在众多的你们的帮助下，给

罗斯的每个人和许多项目提供支持和帮助。随着我们迈向下一个绚烂多彩的

每年八月，罗斯的教师和工作人员都会齐聚一堂，参加罗斯研究所的暑期学

院，进行为期三周的反思，展开对下个学年的深入规划并参与我们罗斯学校

创始人 Courtney Sale Ross、学校导师们、和世界知名专家们的演讲。今年，我们暑期学院的主题是可持续发展以及其在当地社区和全球社区应当采取

的行动。为了推动和特邀嘉宾和学者的不断的交流，我们仔细研究了我们学

校的课程中有关可持续发展的这根主线，并且提出了有关如何进一步加强学

生对这一关键问题的理解的诸多想法。

在我们继续努力为我们的学生提供最高品质的教育的同时，我们从未如此清

晰的意识到我们需要注入具有价值的创新理念并付诸于有效的实践，以使得

我们在教育领域保持开拓者的地位。我们诚挚的邀请您加入我们、帮助我们

维持罗斯学校所带给我们当前和未来的学生们的无与伦比教育体验。当你们

在回顾你们的慈善计划的时候，我们希望你们将罗斯学校的置于您的慈善列

表的优先位置。毕竟，正如本杰明·富兰克林曾经说过，“在教育中的投资是获得的回报最高的投资。”

以下的年度报告向您提供了罗斯学校2013-2014年度财务总览。与此同时，也重点标出了去年所获得成功的一些团体活动。

我们再次感谢你们对罗斯学校的奉献和对罗斯学生课程外的特别活动的一如

既往的慷慨支持。你们的奉献保证了我们能够最大程度的给我们学生提供最

好的教育—— 一种重视他们个人才华，以他们在所有学科不断成长为具有创造力的思想者和成功者为荣耀的教育。

此致，

敬礼
