Join Us in Celebrating Courage at Lower School’s Successful ‘Say Hello’ Week!

We are thrilled to share that our first annual Lower School Say Hello Week was a resounding success! In alignment with this year's virtue theme of courage, students engaged in enriching activities designed to foster connection and build community. With the guidance of our dedicated Lower School leadership, faculty, House Leaders, SGA, and Sources of Strength, we welcomed each student warmly in carpool, distributed special name tags during morning assemblies, and enjoyed fun trivia sessions with Dr. Han. Our aim is to create a vibrant campus culture where courageous and intentional speech thrives throughout every grade level. This quarter marks just the beginning of our journey together!

Join Us to Ensure Every Child in Our Community Can Read by 2024!

In 2024, a staggering 7 out of 10 kids from the graduating class struggled with reading at grade level. This is a wake-up call for our education system. We must urge our members of Congress to prioritize the educational needs of our children for a brighter future. Together, we can advocate for policies that truly benefit our families and ensure every child has the opportunity to succeed. Let's make our voices heard through @NatParentsUnion! #EducationMatters #FutureOfOurKids #Advocacy #ReadingSkills #Congress
