Choices, Choices, Choices! Last year you appreciated more giving options, so we are happy to give you three donation choices again this year:

• Marcia Renken Endowment for Faculty Professional Development  — This new endowment was created in recognition and gratitude of the Academy’s alumna and longtime principal Marcia (Baronovic ’72, 8th) Renken’s retirement at the end of this school year. Marcia's dedication to the Academy and passion for an exceptional faculty lives on with this endowment. Make a gift today in honor of Marcia Renken, or in honor/memory of one of your favorite faculty -- present or past!  
• Jane Cannon Legacy of Love and Learning Endowed Scholarship — This scholarship was established in 2022 in Jane’s memory with a plan to create a $200,000 endowment in perpetuity. We have raised more than $156,000 already but need your help to meet the goal. During the 2023-24 school year two students are benefiting from this scholarship. Make an impact that will last a lifetime by donating today! To learn more, click  here.
• Annual Fund  — The Annual Fund is the foundation of giving for the Academy and provides unrestricted funds to support the operating budget which gives the school the most flexibility. Your gift today to the Annual Fund is impactful and truly appreciated!

The Academy's quality education, guided by the Five Goals and Criteria, aptly and holistically prepared me for my future and opened my eyes to the beauty of God's Love and Creation across the Earth.

I cherish my education at the Academy, and I feel that along with academic studies I benefited from a firm discipline and a genuine concern for each student.
