A Message from the Headmaster


Dear Archway Trivium Families,


Over the past week or so, I have studied the poem Modern Elfland with our faculty. The poem begins by listing various artifacts one might encounter in a fairy tale. Interestingly, many of the symbols we encounter in fairy tales are also common in mythology and legends from civilizations all over the world. Like those myths and legends, fairy tales have the ability to help us all, and especially children, to see beyond the world in front of us. With an elevated perspective, we can understand our world as well as our place in it. There are many ways in which we pursue truth, and the study of great imaginative literature holds a special place to learn things that cannot be taught in other ways. There is no mathematical formula to explain love nor a scientific theorem describing the purpose of human existence. Just as the narrator in the poem experiences, the study of fairy tale can open our eyes so we can see the world anew, and see it as it truly is. What a lovely gift to give to our children! This weekend, take a moment and enjoy a fairy tale together as a family. A trip to Elfland is always worth the walk.


Heartily Devoted,

 

Clay Scott, Ed.D.

Headmaster

Pledge Leaders: Kiara Z., Lana Q., Kayden O., Landon P., Angel T.

School Messenger Communication

Great Hearts and Archway Trivium continue to utilize the system School Messenger for emails, robo-calls, and text messaging to inform families of campus related academy emergencies and other communications. SchoolMessenger has a new automatic opt-in for text feature. During the registration/re-enrollment process families confirmed their wish to participate in text communications. Great Hearts will now automatically opt in contact information given during the registration/re-enrollment process with the options you selected. You will notice at the beginning of July you will be opted in for text messaging. If you would like to opt out of text messages simply reply STOP to the text from 67585. You can also enter the code 67585 with the message STOP to block any text messaging. Please note, if opting out, you will not receive texts regarding emergencies on campus.

If you know of parents who are not receiving these communications, please ask them to check their junk/promotions email folders, and then email bmcdonald@archwaytrivium.org for assistance.
