Public Relations Commitee update
After a busy and fruitful 2006-2007, during which time the
Committee spearheaded an effort to publish a brilliant new school
brochure, we are hoping to capitalize on the momentum created by this
group of dedicated and creative parents and friends. We proudly
announce our new campaign, focused on a balance of outreach programs as
well as international initiatives.
Through the generosity and professional talents of parents Cliona Geary
and Garrett Reil, the school now has a series of promotional pieces
that will be the cornerstone of this revitalized effort. The pieces
reflect the warm ethos of the school community and offer a strong
appeal to any family in the broader community with early school-age
children. Raheen Wood would like to thank Cliona & Garrett for
their time and passion in helping advance the school and its benefits
through this beautiful work!
