The 2019 Fund-a-Need for the evening is "Shade, Play and Hang Out." What does that mean? We want to enhance our outdoor spaces to reflect our student-based learning. We wholeheartedly believe our students' learning experiences extend well beyond the classroom and our outdoor spaces could better reflect that.

Shade - Despite this unseasonably cold winter, it's pretty warm year-round. Having permanent shade structures would provide children protection from the sun. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the EEP play structure and areas near the field could have shade?
Play - We have a big beautiful field where children can run where their imaginations takes them. To enhance this space, wouldn't it be amazing to have games and activities with structure and choice for play?
Hang Out - Understandably, many of our Middle School students don't necessarily want to play the same way our Lower School students do. Oftentimes they just want to hang. But where? Wouldn't it be remarkable to give them age-appropriate spaces for hanging out and interacting as a community?

Our goal for our Fund-a-Need is to partner together and help make Shade, Play and Hang Out a reality this summer. Our Fund-a-Needs have been very successful year after year. Our IB Hub, security entrance, play structures, flexible seating and many more aspects of our learning environment have been made possible because of our generous St. Mary's community. Let's work together to change these "wouldn't it be nice" to "look what we have."
