June 2025

As summer unfolds, we reflect on the meaningful moments that marked the end of our school year and prepare for what's ahead. In this edition, you'll find stories from our campus, reminders for prospective families, and opportunities to join our mission through open roles and support.

Upper School Traditions

Our Upper School students enjoyed a dance in May, celebrating Jane Austen's most well-known novel, Pride and Prejudice. The event featured period-era costumes, music, and food. We remain grateful to our parents and wider community for making this event a success! Our team looks forward to continuing these traditions and building new ones next year.

Meet Our Team

Over the next couple of months, we will introduce our new faculty and staff, and reintroduce returning team members through Facebook, Instagram, and on our website.

2025 State of the Academy

If you missed this year's State of the Academy address from Mr. Mullins, we invite you to watch a short video and learn more about the exciting changes planned for next year.
