1 Better ogether A CAMPAIGN FOR HE SCOSDALE COMMUNIY PREP

2 A Daily Miracle Every day on the campuses of Archway Scottsdale and Scottsdale Prep, a miracle occurs. In buildings that lay vacant only a few years before, families, students and teachers now come together to bring a school community to life. Dedicated to the pursuit of ruth, Goodness and Beauty, they engage a curriculum and academy model that was once found only in elite private schools. Each day, every child is given a full Great Hearts education. he arts are not cut they are magnified. he same is true for languages, music, math, science, athletics and clubs everything that is needed to form great-hearted young men and women. his is all done in a public school setting that is tuition-free and open to all. Scottsdale Prep and Archway provide an incredible foundation and prepare students to become life-long learners. We were just missing one thing. Our family is thrilled at the prospect of finally having a complete and permanent campus to call home. Janna & Matt Everroad

3 he Founding Vision Met with Community Demand A he Great Heart Community of Scottsdale held back From day one, the Scottsdale real estate market presented obstacles to the full growth and vision of the Great Hearts Scottsdale - community. Perhaps more than anywhere else in Arizona, the North Scottsdale market comes with higher costs and limited availability of suitable properties. From the very beginning, the schools and families have worked shoulder to shoulder to meet and overcome these challenges. In true partnership, the families have responded with good will, creativity and generosity at every turn. In 00, they helped transform a former call center into the first campus. In 0, they rose generously to the challenge of completing the beautiful new Scottsdale Prep campus on 9nd Street, and the new Archway families helped fund extensive improvements of their current campus. it has no proper library. he tight campus struggles with noisy classrooms from nearby music and P.E. classes. Closets are used as mini classrooms. he th grade is housed three miles away at the Prep campus. here is a long waitlist of boys and girls who would likely never gain admission because there is simply not enough room. Lastly, and perhaps to greatest loss every day for the students, teachers, and families of the Scottsdale community, are all of the benefits, big and small, that come from a united and cohesive - campus. When Scottsdale Prep held its first open house in the spring of 00, eight months before it was set to open its doors, it prepared a room for 0 interested parents, with an additional 00 chairs for overflow. When the headmaster rose to begin the program, the room was overflowing with more than 00 parents. For the opening of Archway Scottsdale a few years later, the school offered an online open-enrollment opportunity. It was first-come, first-served, and the new school was filled in 9 seconds, with hundreds of families left on the waitlist. he founding of Great Hearts in the Scottsdale community met a broad and deep demand for a better vision of education, where everyone and everything the teachers, the school culture, and the classical curriculum is dedicated to forming great-hearted men and women. But the challenges remain. Scottsdale Prep, with its thriving athletic program, does not have a home field of its own. Daily practices and home games are a continual struggle and a drain of time, money, and, most importantly, school spirit. Without a stretch of grass on campus, field days and many outdoor clubs are out of the question. It is a daily constraint on a world-class school. A shining example of the Great Hearts mission, Archway Scottsdale is held back by its leased and space limited campus. Recess and Field Days are held in a parking lot. he school has no gymnasium for P.E. or athletic clubs, its playground is undersized for its student body, and Our families have waited patiently for a new campus, dreaming of a larger, complete facility and hoping to also get a little closer to Scottsdale Prep. his new campus exceeds all our dreams! Our families are excited for this true indergarten through twelfth grade experience that is now possible on one contiguous campus.

4 A Once in a Generation Opportunity After many years of unsuccessful attempts for a Prep sports field and a new Archway campus, an opportunity presented itself that would solve both challenges at the same time. Archway Scottsdale would have a permanent home of its own - a new campus designed for its programs and room for more students in grades -. At long last, a Scottsdale Prep would have a home field not miles away, but right on campus. SCOSDALE PREP NEW ARCHWAY CAMPUS AND SCHOOL AHLEIC FIELD SIE How was this possible? In September 0, Headmasters Chaney and Armstrong wrote the Scottsdale Prep and Archway community with the news that a 9.-acre site immediately to the northeast of the Scottsdale Prep campus had been secured at a cost of $ million. It was a once-in-a-generation opportunity. With the investment of an additional $. million in charitable contributions, the site will be transformed into a new, united - acre campus for our - community.
