Dear Archway Trivium Families,


As we close out this school year, I ask that you take some time to contemplate the growth your scholars and your family have made. As with every school year, and as with life, the year was a mixture of beautiful, exhilarating vistas, heart-wrenching trials, and a lot of regular days. We have learned and grown in different ways from each of these experiences. As an academy, we have lots of room to grow. We can improve communication, be more consistent, and be more unified in our school culture. We have goals for each of these. We also have many points of excellence. The quality of our recent art walk and concerts speaks to the excellence of our specials programs. In the classroom, our curriculum is second to none and our teachers are truly committed to Socratic instruction. Our parent community has abundant resources that are given freely as needed. These things and many more allow me to confidently state that we offer a top-notch classical liberal arts education to our scholars each and every day. Thank you for partnering with us during the academic year! Have a great summer, and I look forward to seeing you back in August!


Heartily Devoted,


Clay Scott, Ed.D.

Headmaster

Student Pledge Leaders: Sofia M., Anastasia A., Riley J., Keira C.

Late Pick-up Policy


We have been doing very well with our on-campus student pick-up and drop-off routines as of late. Every year, it takes a few weeks for us to settle into a routine so that the pickup runs smoothly. Now that pick-up times are running efficiently, we ask parents to ensure they arrive on time to pick up their students.


We will begin enforcing our Late Pick-up Policy on Tuesday, September 5. Please make sure you are arriving within 30 minutes of the end of school to pick up your scholar in order to avoid being charged a late pick-up fee. Parents arriving after this time will be required to sign out their child from the MPR and may be assessed a $2 per minute, per student late fee. All late pick-up fees will be added to your Configio account and are due upon receipt. For more information, please see page 46 of our Family Handbook.


Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday - You will be charged from 3:35pm

Wednesday - You will be charged from 1:55pm

Half days - You will be charged from 12:25pm (excludes Half Day Kinder)

Happy Birthday!

Communication Updates

Latest News image.png

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.


Email Communications

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.
