We believe that education opens doors, changes hearts, and impacts our world’s future. At St. Alcuin –the most vibrant Montessori School on the planet, in our humble opinion – we are committed to focusing clearly on the achievement of our mission and on our strategic goal of guiding individuals to realize their full potential. It is with pride that we can celebrate hundreds of active alumni who use their Montessori experiences to make a difference every day. The brilliance of this moment in our history is breathtaking. Because of the dedication and generosity of so many, the vision for the future of St. Alcuin School is morphing into reality.
St. Alcuin is indeed “where the sidewalk ends,” our 2008 school theme. To students of all ages, the anticipation of new classrooms, a new library, a new athletic center, a new middle school, and top notch playing fields is a miracle waiting to happen. It raises St. Alcuin to a coveted level in the Dallas educational world. Montessori is the alternative Dallas parents seek for authentic experiential education.
Yes, we are almost there. Everyone is invited to help us make this happen through their stretch gifts to the Capital Campaign. The Trustees are firm in their determination to incur little debt so we really must solicit the community support of our parents, past parents, and friends. With your philanthropy we will “open this next door” with the same solvent financial standing that St. Alcuin has conscientiously maintained during its 44 year history.
The summer months are here. Construction began June 1. Thank you and God’s blessings on all.
