The culture of
giving back at our
school is not just
strong; it is vibrant,
deeply rooted and
constantly growing.
Every gift, every volunteer
hour and every act of support
contributes to a thriving
educational environment where
our students can flourish.
This past year, our school
community truly showcased
the power of participation,
fostering a vibrant culture of
giving back that led to remarkable
achievements for our Annual
Fund. We're thrilled to announce
that a record-breaking 14,001
donors participated in our Annual
Fund. This is a true testament to
the unwavering dedication of
our parents/guardians, alumni,
faculty, staff, parents of alumni
(PALs) and other members of
the community. This huge group
includes the 16 parent/guardians
who paved the way for successes
at our Scholarship Dinner and
served as dedicated Development
Committee members, and the 18
Giving Ambassadors who worked
closely with families and 65
student volunteers from the Lower
School and Upper School. They
championed participation at every
grade level, personally reaching
out and encouraging support for
the Annual Fund. Their infectious
enthusiasm made a real difference
and is a testament of the strength
of peer-to-peer outreach in
our community.

A highlight of our efforts
was the revamped Giving
Days and Class Participation
Challenge. Grade 4 won
big, showing incredible
commitment! They
celebrated with a fun parent/
guardian happy hour and
the students enjoyed an
unforgettable "Glow Party".
