Annual Fund King’s promise to its families is that we will know your child better than any other school can. With this goal, we strive to provide the most rewarding educational experience possible for each child. From the latest educational technology to es- sential classroom materials to the hiring and retention of high quality Faculty, excellence is our goal. Your support of The Annual Fund each year allows us to maintain the aggressive pace that we set for ourselves as an educational institution that prides itself on the excellence of its program and the accomplishments of its students. Every parent is expected to invest in the future of the students of King by contributing to the Annual Fund each year. Monies raised support a variety of student-centered initiatives, faculty opportunities, and curricular enhancements in the academic year in which your gift is made. Your support is critical to King’s ability to remain among the premier independent schools in the Fairchester area. Last year, parents, Alumni, Faculty, Staff, and friends invested over $2 million in the students of King through participation in the Annual Fund. Nearly as important as the amount that is raised is the number of families who participate. Last year’s participation rates of 100% among Faculty and Staff, 100% among the Board of Trustees, and 97% among parents—with 94% of new families contributing; are clear indications that our school community believes in advancing King’s vision and mission. Such tremendous support also sends an important message to foundations and corporations, the financial support of which the school seeks. It is our hope that you will help us continue King’s strong tradition of giving – of your time by volunteering in our many events and parent organizations, as well as financially. Together we can make King even stronger, and ensure futures of promise and accomplishment for

  • Dear Members of the Public Health Committee
    Dear Members of the Public Health Committee, Typically during testimony, I would explain how this bill impacts my family specifically, but today I want to talk about the numbers. The whole impetus of this bill which aims to remove the religious exemption right now is not because of an emergency or public health crisis, but because of the possibility of one in the future. The Department of Public Health released vaccination data that shows an increase in the use of the religious exemption from one year to the next and “dangerous pockets” of low vaccination rates. I’ve poured over the numbers like children’s lives depend on it, because, frankly it does. The data I’ve used is from the Department of Public Health immunization surveys and the Department of Education’s student enrollment numbers for the 2018-2019 school year. But unfortunately there are many flaws in the data: • Using the supplied data and getting less than one child with an RE or percentages of a child. • Enrollment was less than 30 students and data was still supplied. • Schools with only Pre-Kindergarten students are used in the averages. I’m going to focus on the public school numbers since they are available from the State of CT EdSight database. For public schools, the increase from last school year to the previous year is an average of one religious exemption per public school. ONE. In the 2018-2019 school year there were 530,612 students in public K-12. With an overall exemption rate of 1.8%, that accounts for 9,551 RE.

  • An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England
    An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England, We, the heads of independent schools, comprising 176 schools in the New England region, stand in solidarity with our students and with the families of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The heart of our nation has been broken yet again by another mass shooting at an American school. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who died and are grieving for the loss of life that occurred. We join with our colleagues in public, private, charter, independent, and faith-based schools demanding meaningful action to keep our students safe from gun violence on campuses and beyond. Many of our students, graduates, and families have joined the effort to ensure that this issue stays at the forefront of the national dialogue. We are all inspired by the students who have raised their voices to demand change. As school leaders we give our voices to this call for action. We come together out of compassion, responsibility, and our commitment to educate our children free of fear and violence. As school leaders, we pledge to do all in our power to keep our students safe. We call upon all elected representatives - each member of Congress, the President, and all others in positions of power at the governmental and private-sector level – to take action in making schools less vulnerable to violence, including sensible regulation of fi rearms. We are adding our voices to this dialogue as a demonstration to our students of our own commitment to doing better, to making their world safer.
