Katy Logic & Rhetoric School News

The 2025 Year-End Appeal kicks off on December 1, and we are excited to introduce this year’s theme: the Griffin Giving Tree. This annual tradition celebrates generosity, community, and the shared commitment that helps Aristoi flourish. Our goal is to raise $50,000 to strengthen resources and enrich learning opportunities across all Aristoi campuses.

As you choose a “branch” of the Griffin Giving Tree to support, you may designate your gift to your child’s homeroom teacher or any staff member. Your donation will help their class grow and will also allow that teacher or staff member to earn special rewards throughout the campaign.

Every contribution, no matter the size, nurtures our students and teachers and helps our Griffin community thrive. Together, we can watch the Griffin Giving Tree bloom with possibility and make a meaningful impact on the year ahead.

Thank you for your generosity and for helping our students soar!
