THANK YOU!
Many thanks to all the parents
for supporting
the Parents Association fundraisers!

Faculty Grant Allocations for 2008-2009

Each year the Parents Association allocates funding for the academic and social growth of its students through objective criteria based on the academic institution’s mission statement and in accordance with the purpose of the Parents Association.

This year, over $40,000 of grant requests were received from Faculty. In conjunction with members of the Administration, each application was carefully reviewed and scored. The Parents Association is pleased to announce the following awards totaling almost $24,000 (other funding sources were found for many of the applications):

Thanks for taking the time to explore these pages… be sure to check back often and visit the Parents Association page on Collegiate’s Edline site.

Merit Scholarships

There are currently four members of the freshman class who are Merit Scholars and four rising 9th graders have been awarded Merit Scholarships for 2008-2009.

These students are selected based on superior academic achievement, standardized testing scores, and the potential for significant contribution while attending Collegiate and thereafter.

The Parents Association is proud to fund one of these scholarships. We received notes from the students and would like to share a few of their comments:

“…I have been able to learn at a higher level than I would’ve been able to at any other school I was considering. Collegiate teaches at such a swift pace and rigorous level that I thought I would never be able to meet. But, at Collegiate I am able to learn at such a high level because of its small size.”

“Collegiate is like a second home to me, and its walls are magical. Truly great things happen here, and I will remember this place for a lifetime.”

“…the level of education I have received gives me the tools to make my life great. When I am older I aim to set up a scholarship fund like you because of how much I see it can positively affect someone’s life.”

“Collegiate has done so many wonderful things to enhance my learning such as provide better foundation for different learning styles. I am very involved in the school with drama and the athletic department…. Thank you for providing me the opportunity to attend Collegiate.”

Faculty Appreciation Party

On Friday, May 23, the Parents Association is hosting a Faculty and Staff Appreciation Party at the Slugger Museum.

This is one of many things that the Parents Association does throughout the year to make sure our Faculty & Staff knows how much the parents appreciate all that they do for our children.

We are asking Middle and Upper School parents to donate an item that can be used as a door prize. We try to ensure that each staff member who attends receives a gift.

If you would like to donate something, please take it to the collection box in the Middle or Upper School office. (The Lower School parents donated money in November to purchase holiday and year-end gifts for their homeroom and specialty teachers.)
