Much Gratitude as We Continue to Grow
Dr. Kelley Waldron, Head of School for St. Andrew’s School, recently shared details of the school’s current capital campaign efforts, including the exciting news that nearly $3.5 million has already been pledged towards the campaign’s $5.5 million goal.
Included among the projects to be funded by this campaign is a new performing arts space on campus, including a 300-seat auditorium with a full stage, wings, and backdrop along with purpose-built classrooms for orchestra, band, choir, theatre and visual arts.
The campaign will also fund extensive renovations to the existing athletic fields, including a complete rebuilding of the fields, and drainage ensuring a high-quality playing experience for student athletes participating in football, soccer, baseball, and flag football.
A final focus of the campaign is on growing the endowment, providing the financial foundation for a strong future for the school.
We want to recognize those who have already made a commitment to this project and are pleased to share our Donor List at this time.

Endowment
St. Andrew’s has benefited from the investment and foresight of our community. Much of what our students enjoy from today was seeded long before they arrived at St. Andrew’s through the sacrifice and care of those who came before us.The St. Andrew’s Endowment allows us to pay forward this investment, planting seeds that will sprout and thrive for future generations. The endowment, founded in 2018, is designed to support mission-central work in our school: professional development for faculty, reinvestment in our campus and facilities, and support for financial aid for need-based applicants.
The St. Andrew’s Endowment has grown steadily through planned giving and generative giving. Gifts can be made through pledges, one-time gifts, bequests, and stock transfers.
If you are interested in learning more about supporting our endowment and leaving a legacy for our future, please contact Scott Searcy, Director of Development searcys@saslions.com, or Head of School, Kelley Waldron waldronk@saslions.com.
