"I give because I’m passionate about the work our educators are doing, the PYP and learning through play. I want to help all students and educators thrive, and in a way, say thank you."
Many donors prefer to make gifts of appreciated stocks, bonds, mutual funds or exchange traded funds because it can have a significant impact on our mission, while maximizing potential tax benefits.

Artist's Statement

Modern Interpretation of Annie

“When I first thought about the image of Annie as I perceived her, I realized that Annie Wright has always appeared in every nook of the school and in the memories of alumni, depicted in her youth. However, from 1884 to 2024, and especially from the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Annie Wright Schools navigated through numerous challenges to develop into a mature educational system and a close-knit family. This inspired me. In the portrait I completed, Annie is portrayed at a more mature age, her expression of determination reflecting the growth and resilience of the entire school.”
