The Annual Fund connects all of us

The photo above was taken at the start of the 2019-2020 school year...and we hope to have an opportunity later this year to pose for an updated all-school photo. COVID restrictions make that impossible right now, but school is back in session (and we do have small cohorts of students and teachers safely back on campus for in-person instruction).

Despite the challenges of adapting to distance-learning for LD students, Stanbridge has continually found ways to deliver on the promise of our mission: For students who learn differently to thrive and develop their academic, social, and emotional capabilities to their fullest potential.​ It has not been easy during these challenging times, which is why we are asking the broader Stanbridge community to ensure that our students can continue to grow and thrive.

The Annual Fund is vital to all aspects of our program.
The success of this year’s fund drive will impact everything within our school community: Faculty and facilities, classroom curriculum and enrichment opportunities, the arts and athletics programs, our financial aid capacity, and more. The impact is immense, as seen over these past few months:
  • Technology purchased through Annual Fund donations ensured that we could keep our students connected to their classmates and teachers throughout the COVID closure; we were able to engage all students in distance-learning just days after shutting our doors in March.
  • Bringing students back on campus this fall has only been possible thanks to significant facility upgrades made throughout the summer; improvement projects realized through Annual Fund support.
  • The Annual Fund has helped to provide a critical lifeline in the form of financial aid for a number of Stanbridge families severely impacted by the pandemic, making it possible for their children to continue to access the whole-school experience Stanbridge provides.
More than ever, and in so many other ways, the Annual Fund has made it possible for the Stanbridge community to stay connected in these socially-distanced times.

We are all connected. That is the theme of this year's Stanbridge Yearbook, and if this past year has taught us anything, it is the importance of connection. The strength of that connection has gotten us through so much this past year, and together, will make it even stronger in the year ahead. Thank you for being part of our connected community. Stay safe and, as always...

​Stay Strong, Bulldogs!
