Dear Parents and Friends of Fayette Academy,

Fayette Academy has provided leaders for Fayette County for forty-two years and it is an honor to become a part of this tradition and service. It is awe-inspiring to realize the caliber of leaders and the leadership that has been produced in these halls. As I look at the challenges we face today, my thoughts fall to our kindergartners, the class of 2015 and those that follow them and wonder what the expectations of the world will be for them.

Each person that has been associated with Fayette Academy over the past decades understands the tradition and understands the commitment to helping those that follow to succeed. From the tradition of academic excellence to our service to others, our students, as well as the faculty and staff, shine as brightly as those early founding families. We are blessed with a wonderful community of support and pride for the Academy. The influence of Fayette Academy through its alumni, reach outward to not only in the local community, but statewide and nationally as well.

It is now that I ask for your support in order to help us maintain and enhance this fine tradition of excellence. As you know each year the costs to improve and enhance an already great program increase. The most important individuals in the Academy are our children, and they not only expect, but they deserve the best education that the Fayette Academy family can provide to them. I also believe that it is very important to continue to attract the best in faculty and staff to develop and educate our future leadership. Our continued success is built upon the generosity of all of you. In the spirit of our founding families, who willingly gave so much, I ask that you consider making a gift to this year’s annual campaign. Your contribution will have a direct impact not only on tuition costs, but in our ability to increase our academic programs, provide for technological innovations as well as upgrade our existing Library.

Please understand that all gifts of prayer, monetary gifts, and gifts of property or stocks are greatly appreciated. Fayette Academy is a tax exempt 501(c) non-profit, in most instances your donations may be tax deductible. In addition, many companies offer matching gift programs that will increase your gift to the Academy. On behalf of the children, the faculty, staff, board of directors, and our founders, I thank you in advance for your continued support.

With fondest regards,

Alex Hooker

Headmaster
