Update: Groundbreaking Celebration Event

Dear Archer Community and Friends,

We are grateful that our beloved campus is safe and sound in the wake of the Skirball fire and have been able to bring our community back together this week. Thank you for your support of the School and one another through this devastating situation that continues to affect so many across California.

In addition to finals week, packing and moving are well underway as we prepare to break ground on the new Academic Center. This moment has been a long time coming, and we are committed to giving the project the celebration that it and our girls deserve.

With that, our Groundbreaking event has been rescheduled for Monday, January 8, at 11:30 a.m. Because the back of the school will be a construction site, we will now be holding the event in the Courtyard. Space will be limited and thus the event will be focused on celebrating only with the girls; sadly, there is not room to hold an event of the same scale we had planned. We will be filming the Groundbreaking and look forward to sharing with you shortly thereafter. I have no doubt our girls will help give this occasion the celebration it deserves. You can find further details atwww.archer.org/groundbreaking.

We hope you have a wonderful holiday season and look forward to celebrating with you in the new year.

Sincerely yours,

Elizabeth English
