Take the Great Hearts Family Survey Today!

Each year we ask parents for feedback on their academy and Great Hearts as a whole. We hope you will take the time to fill out this year’s survey. It should only take a few minutes, and we very much want to hear your perspective. 


Take the Great Hearts Family Survey


The survey will remain open through March 4. Our goal is to hear from as many families as possible to help us best understand what is going well and how we can improve. To that end, if we increase our participation percentage from last year, students will be rewarded with a "Jeans and Crazy Sock Day!"


Thank you in advance for taking the time to provide your feedback through the Family Survey.

Community Investment Donor Match

Trivium Families we need everyone to join to support Community Investment. As a reminder Community Investment supports our core education of Music, Language, and Art programs and these programs would not be possible without our community investing in them.


Today, we invite you to join us in strengthening the Great Hearts mission through an extraordinary gift-matching opportunity. A generous Trivium family, who wishes to remain anonymous, has pledged to match every new recurring Community Investment gift, dollar for dollar, up to $50,000, now through June 30, 2025. This means your support will have twice the impact for our scholars and academy.

 

We urge you to consider participating by visiting the link below, where your generosity will be amplified, creating a lasting legacy for our scholars. And as an exciting incentive, if we increase our recurring gift participation by 10% our scholars will receive a free-dress day—and both of us will be slimed by our scholars during a special assembly!


Give to Community Investment

Trivium Family Day at Goodyear Ballpark - March 1

We are looking forward to our first Trivium Family Day at the Ballpark on Saturday, March 1! Event sales have closed--tickets and Spirit Wear orders will be sent home with students on Monday, February 24. You are still welcome to join us at Goodyear Ballpark by purchasing tickets directly from the ballpark (while supplies last)! Hope to see you there!

Students may dress according to the dress code below (or wear Spirit Wear/regular uniform) on Field Day:


Athletic Practice and Outdoor Field Day Dress Code



Just as ACA provides guidelines for dress code in the classroom, it is important to project the image of professionalism in our athletic attire as well. All shirts worn for athletic practices and field day should be modest, loose fitting, in good repair (no holes, torn sleeves, etc.), should be worn either tucked in or well over the waist of the pants/shorts if not tucked in. No midriffs may be shown. T-shirts are preferred—no tank tops, camisoles, or sports bras may be worn as outer-garments. Sleeveless shirts may be worn if modest. Pants/shorts should be modest and in good repair (no holes, torn sleeves, etc.) No short-shorts or long baggy shorts may be worn. No boxers or undergarments may be visible. Attire should be free of inappropriate messages. Sports team logos (e.g., Diamondbacks, Notre Dame), and apparel brand names (e.g., Adidas, Nike) are acceptable, provided they do not make inappropriate allusions. These guidelines also apply to sweatshirts and jackets that students may wear. Footwear should be athletic in nature: no sandals, open-toed, or platform shoes. Hats and sunscreen may be appropriate if the students will be in the sun. Hat styles should follow the same guidelines as above.

Communication Updates

Latest News image.png

School Messenger Communication

Great Hearts and Archway Trivium continue to utilize the system School Messenger for emails, robo-calls, and text messaging to inform families of campus related academy emergencies and other communications. SchoolMessenger has a new automatic opt-in for text feature. During the registration/re-enrollment process families confirmed their wish to participate in text communications. Great Hearts will now automatically opt in contact information given during the registration/re-enrollment process with the options you selected. You will notice at the beginning of July you will be opted in for text messaging. If you would like to opt out of text messages simply reply STOP to the text from 67585. You can also enter the code 67585 with the message STOP to block any text messaging. Please note, if opting out, you will not receive texts regarding emergencies on campus.


Email Communications

If you know of parents who are not receiving these communications, please ask them to check their junk/promotions email folders, and then email bmcdonald@archwaytrivium.org for assistance. 


You can also find ALL school-wide communications on our website on the Latest News page.
