A Message from the Headmaster


Dear Archway Trivium Families,


This was a busy week with a lot of great things happening. The highlight, of course, was our fall concerts. I thought the music selection, instruction, and direction were all magnificent. The scholars were set up for success, and they executed beautifully! Seeing each grade take the stage in their respective turn and perform so well made for a most pleasurable evening.


Although events such as this happen infrequently throughout the year, they are essential for the formation of a strong community. Examining the root of that word is all we need to do to recognize how important it is to commune with one another. Sometimes, simply “doing life” together is the most important thing. In the simplest form, this happens when you pause your mopping in order to watch your daughter perform a cartwheel. She does not require your eyeballs in order to engage in gymnastic activity, but she invites you to watch because she, like all of us, has a deeply rooted need to be seen. As the community expands beyond the nuclear family, the complexity of the interactions increase, but the principles remain the same. Our community will be stronger when we truly engage with one another in wholesome ways and serve as witnesses of life for each other.


Thank you for all you do to make our academy a joyous place to be!


Heartily devoted,


Clay Scott, Ed.D.

Headmaster

Pledge Leaders: Moali O., Andres H., Penny C., Aria M. Ava A.

Literary and Historical Figure Day - Friday, November 14


Save the Date for our annual Literary & Historical Figure Day on Friday, November 14. Scholars are invited to choose a literary or historical figure from the Archway curriculum and come to school dressed as that figure* on Friday, November 14. This is a great way to celebrate our love of history and literature. All students are encouraged to participate! 


Please Note: Students must complete and return a Costume Proposal Form to their classroom teacher in order to participate.


*Please remember that the character you choose should be from one of the Classics-to-Keep from the K-12 list, Greek or Roman Mythology or a historical character from our History or Science curriculum. It’s preferred, but not required, that your character looks like the author’s description of the character and not a movie version. If your costume will be at all see through, you must wear your uniform underneath. If you choose not to participate, you will need to come in uniform.


*All costumes must abide by dress code guidelines in the Family Handbook and must exclude any frightening or aggressive costumes or accessories.
