Priority Re-enrollment

Dear Mead Hall Families!
 
We want to remind you that Priority Re-enrollment for our current Mead Hall families opened February 1, 2022 and will continue through February 28, 2022. We’ve had a great year operating safely since the start of school and as a result, several families from outside of our Mead Hall community have toured our campuses and they are waiting to apply. Hence, if you are planning to secure a space for your child/children, we urge you to complete the re-enrollment paperwork by February 28, 2022. 
 
If you are planning to enroll a new student who is a sibling of a current Mead Hall student, please apply now. We are paying close attention to our enrollment numbers and once we’ve determined availability, we will begin offering admission to current families first and then to new families beginning Monday, March 14, 2022. Once we've reached our capacity for a specific grade, we will communicate that to you promptly. 
 
We are glad to offer affordable tuition levels that are of excellent value for an independent school education in the CSRA. As you know, in comparison with peer schools, our tuition is the most all inclusive in the area with no additional required fees other than the annual registration fee. We are also glad to serve lunch daily at no additional cost. We sent the tuition schedule earlier this month and it is also attached to this email. Let me know if you have any questions.
 
Many thanks,

Dr. Felicia Pontoo, Director of Admissions and College Guidance


Mead Hall Student Recognized for Outstanding Academic and Athletic Achievements

On February 15, 2022, our very own David Elam, a junior at Mead Hall Episcopal School was recognized for his outstanding academic and athletic achievements along with a select group of juniors from other area high schools in the CSRA. The Black Scholar Recognition Program is an annual program hosted by Augusta University which welcomes honorees and their families to the Grover C. Maxwell Performing Arts Theatre for a special recognition ceremony and celebration. This year, students heard from keynote speaker Adebayo Onabule, a Licensed Professional Counselor, Dr. Susan Davies, Vice President of Enrollment and Dr. Tiffany Townsend, Chief Diversity Officer. Afterwards, a reception was held for all scholars and their guests.
