Gala Wrap Up

Thank you to all who participated in and attended our 20th Annual St. Andrew's Episcopal School Fundraising Gala. It was a beautiful night, and nearly a hundred parents, grandparents, teachers, church members, trustees, and friends were in attendance!

This year, we held another virtual silent auction and a fantastic live auction featuring vacations, a private chef dinner, a joyride in a private plane, the always popular classroom artwork, and the annual favorite holiday hayride in the Heights. We also introduced raffles this year, which drew much excitement!

We are so grateful for everyone's support and generosity. Collectively, we raised a stunning $73,335! These funds will continue to support and enhance our school—now and for years to come. The money raised will supplement the operating budget and allow the school to focus on safety improvements, teacher certifications, professional development, and enrichment programs. The incredible success of this year's gala is due to you - the entire St. Andrew's community. Thank you to all who took part!

Important Fall Staff, Screening, and Enrollment Updates

Staff

We are very excited to financially assist two teachers, Avary Hernandez and Monica Chapa, with their Early Childhood Montessori certifications. To ensure leadership autonomy, each of these adult learners will need to be in different classrooms. Therefore, Monica will remain upstairs to maintain consistency; Avary will move to the EC down classroom, and Tuan will transition upstairs to keep our ratios. These moves will occur when school resumes on August 21. We have thought through this transition and are confident this is the best option for our EC community.

Hearing and Vision Screening

If your child turned four years old during this academic year, please turn in a copy of the hearing/vision test completed at their annual four-year-old checkup.



Enrollment

Be on the lookout for fall enrollment via brightwheel. The August 2024 fall tuition will be prorated since the second week of session 4 is August 5-9. The $300 enrollment fee and $350 facility fee will be charged along with August's tuition. The amount you are charged for September will be the monthly tuition amount you can depend upon from then on. If you have questions about tuition or brightwheel, please get in touch with Amber Reid at areid@saesheights.org.
