The Donation Match has been & Extended
Expanded!
Over the summer, we received excited emails and notes from alumni and parents who were thrilled to hear about an innovative new energy initiative and restoration of The Foyer. It’s clear that our community is impressed with the school’s commitment to architectural preservation of the Foyer while also making shrewd improvements to our infrastructure that will benefit the school in years to come.
Mr. Keleher completed the Foyer renovations this summer and next up is an initiative that will reduce our energy costs and enhance the science curriculum. The school will be installing a solar panel system on the Pavillon and while the project has been delayed slightly, we can look forward to a system that will provide our students with access to clean, affordable electricity that doesn’t harm the environment and will reduce our considerable energy costs.
We haven’t yet reached our ambitious target of $60,000, and Honorary Patrons’ Council President, Dr. Daniel Andreae ’72 has generously offered to both extend his Match Deadline until the end of the year, and open it up to those of you who would like to contribute to the restoration of the Foyer.
You now have until midnight, on December 31st, to double your support for our Campus Improvements and Infrastructure programs. The $2-for-$1 match means that your $5 investment will become $15, your $15 investment will become $45, and so on.
On behalf of Mr. Keleher and Dr. Andreae '72, we extend our sincere thanks to those of you who have donated to our appeal to revitalize the campus. As our buildings age and technological needs increase, it is vital that we continuously and strategically invest in our campus so that it is a safe and inspiring place to learn.
