Dear Academy Families, Classes may have started more than a month ago, but to me it’s always the advent of cool, fall weather that makes me feel that school has begun in earnest. The multiplication of school activities—many of them profiled in what follows—has the same effect. Allow me to draw your attention to two in particular. “Academy Sundays” launch on Sunday, October 4th. Going forward, we hope to collaborate with our clergy to make the first Sunday of each month an opportunity to highlight the mission of Academy, its scholars and faculty, and upcoming school activities that may be of interest to parish families. See below for more details. Fall sports are in full swing, with several squads enjoying early success. Make sure to put the upcoming games and meets listed below on your calendar so that you can come out and cheer on our Crusaders! Let us continue to pray for one another. Our Lady of The Atonement—pray for us! Your servant, Matthew David Watson Head of School
