The Annual Fund Campaign is our primary opportunity for school families to participate in the continued success of our school by helping to bridge the gap left by state and local funding. This fund supports existing educational programs, new curriculum development, improves facilities, and supports essential needs of Socrates Academy.

Procedure Change for Lower Lot Dismissal
Going forward on rainy days, we are only going to call the cars we can actually load. This will alleviate students standing in the rain longer than necessary. However, this change does mean that carpool may go longer on rainy days. Please be patient with staff as we get students to the car in the safest way possible.
