Aristoi Classical Academy - Cypress Fundraiser

FREE Event!


Join us for Cypress Legacy Day, a FREE celebration bringing families, friends, and supporters together for an evening of fun while helping build the future of our new Cypress campus!


Enjoy bounce houses, face painting, a petting zoo, food trucks, and more, plus our Live Legacy Auction featuring exclusive campus naming opportunities.


Supporters can also leave a lasting mark on Cypress by purchasing a Legacy Wall recognition or commemorative brick, sponsoring the event, or helping furnish our new campus through the Cypress Campus Registry.


Come celebrate with us and help build a legacy for generations of Cypress scholars to come!

Lunch Visitors Update! 


Starting Monday, October 5th, we will be allowing lunch visitors to attend kindergarten & first-grade lunches ONLY. If you would like to attend lunch with your kindergarten or first grade scholars, please email shopkins@aristoiclassical.org with 24 hours advance notice. As a note, you may only bring lunch for your own scholars. 


For our second through 11th-grade families, it is still our goal to welcome lunch visitors for your scholars as well! We are hopeful that the addition of outdoor seating areas later this year will create more space for us to welcome visitors. Keep an eye on the newsletters for future updates. In the meantime, you are always welcome to drop off lunch for your student or sign them out during their lunch break! 


Thank you for your patience as we adapt these fun traditions to our new space! 

Cypress, get ready for the Battle of the Banks!


From October 19–30, classes will go head-to-head in our Penny Wars competition! Add pennies and dollars to your own class jug to build your score—or use silver coins to bring down the competition.


The class with the highest number of points will be crowned our Battle of the Banks Champion!


Best of all, every dollar raised will help provide academic planners for Aristoi Cypress scholars. So start saving those coins, plan your strategy, and get ready to BUILD YOUR CLASS.


Let the Battle of the Banks begin!
