A Message from the Headmaster
Dear Archway Trivium Families,
As we enter a time of year that involves reflection, appreciation, joy, and gratitude, I invite you to join us in celebrating gratitude with our academy on December 2 for #GivingTuesday. This day of giving was created to focus on doing good for the community after Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday.
I am grateful to our parents who already support our classrooms through Community Investment. On Giving Tuesday, our intent is to fulfill our Community Investment goal as outlined below. I invite families who have not yet supported our school this year to make a gift during #GivingTuesday to show their gratitude. All gifts made on Giving Tuesday will support our operating budget and help us close the funding gap of $1,500 per student. You can give by clicking here or by connecting with Aydin Martin our Family Giving Officer.
Thank you again for your endless support of our academy; we truly could not do it without you.
Go Squires!
Clay Scott, Ed.D.
Headmaster
