Inspire School was poised to launch a crucial capital campaign before the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. The arts have been severely impacted by this public health crisis, and now more than ever, our commitment to fostering a culture of innovation, imagination, and creativity could not be more important. The students we serve are the students that will build our future and find the answers to complex problems facing our communities and the world.

Inspire has just a year and a half to raise $10 million in order to receive matching funds from the state to build their new school, and we need your help to jump start this effort. Our first goal is clear: We need to raise $200,000 in 200 days

The post A Letter To The Community appeared first on Inspire School of Arts & Sciences Foundation.

I walked away with a renewed belief in education. I felt like I wanted to go back to high school which I don’t think I have ever felt – not even when I was in high school. My youngest child – that I dragged to the presentation at the age of 10 – turned to me as we were walking to our car and said, “Mom, I want to skip junior high and go straight to Inspire.”

What was it about this school? Well, three years later I know – it’s the teachers and staff. There enthusiasm is palpable. I see it in my 11th grader’s face when I pick him up and he is beaming, “Mom, when we get home can we talk about picking my classes for next year?”

Their love and compassion for the students is a rare find at a high school and in turn, they are teaching the students to be loving and compassionate. What kind of a world would we live in if every high school was like this? I can only imagine but in the meantime, it’s an easy school to “sell” and they are the reason I want to build them a school they deserve.
