Give Parker Love
February 7, 2025

| Parker’s core philosophy centers on valuing children as unique individuals, capable of achieving whatever they set their minds to. Here at Parker, we educate the whole child, incorporating the student’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being into their education. This fosters a learning environment that encourages belonging and connection, sets the stage for rigorous academics, and builds well-rounded students. Parker kids grow up loving their community, their world, their learning, and themselves. In celebration of our community of belonging, we are dedicating next week to the idea that “WE ARE ALL CONNECTED.” It takes a village to raise a child, and your support is critical to supporting our whole-child education here at Parker. That is why, every year, we celebrate the second week of February as Give Parker Love Week to encourage participation in our Parker Annual Fund. To date, we’ve already seen a tremendous show of good faith in our school with 100% Board Participation in our Annual Fund. By the end of next week, it is our goal to also reach 100% Enrolled Family Participation. |

| Parker’s annual fund provides the essential, unrestricted support that enables us to provide our students with the best educational experience possible. Monies raised help bridge the gap between what Parker receives in net annual tuition and the full cost of operating our program. We use these funds to offer innovative and quality programs with talented faculty and staff, to support a culture rooted in our core values, and to enrich our community where every child is known. By giving to the Annual Fund, you will be making a difference where it counts the most – in the lives of our current students. Parker is blessed with an incredibly generous parent community. If you have already given to Parker, THANK YOU! If you are just contributing now, any amount that you are able to give helps, and all donations count towards our final participation goal!  |
| In honor of Give Parker Love week we will be showcasing student messages sharing what they love about Parker all week long. *We are also inviting current families to add a link to our LOVE CHAIN (located across from Jennifers office) sharing what YOU love about PARKER!!! If you are inspired, we welcome you to also make a donation in support of our beloved school. These messages will be shared on social media throughout the week to show just how much we value our community! |

| We will be checking in daily next week with updates on our participation numbers and messages of Parker love.

You are an invaluable part of what makes Parker unique and enables us to engage each student in a thoughtful and challenging learning process that inspires curiosity and a passion to achieve, nurtures confidence and community, and cultivates purposeful action. With deepest gratitude,Leigh Augustine Director of Development  |
