FORWARD MOMENTUM
Staying Present AVANTI
2021-22 marked year four of a five-year strategic plan that resulted in needed campus upgrades, deeper community engagement, outstanding academic achievements, and reaching key philanthropic goals. As we focus forward on our goals, we also remember to remain present to relish the now, and celebrate achievements as we meet them. Justin-Siena expanded our ALLHEART identity in ways like never before. We saw the completion of the Colin Chadwick ’08 Team Center, as well as launched a campaign to strengthen and better secure our campus. We continue to consider future opportunities to enhance our campus to be the best version of an educational destination. On the horizon are exciting notable upgrades to our science department and innovative professional growth opportunities. With pride, we promote the Lasallian core principles beyond our campus. Students and staff are deepening our community ties by participating in acts of service with our valley neighbors. Whether student-led or staff-supported, Justin-Siena serves where needs are greatest. Our school invokes change, and this year our school community truly led with service. We are bridging the generation gap by connecting with our neighbors at The Watermark senior living community, organizing drives in support of deserving families, and more. We thank those who with their generous donorship, ensure the execution of our shared mission and vision. Your generosity ensures that Signature Events and fundraising campaigns are able to celebrate outstanding results, even breaking records in some cases. Through endowed gifts and partnerships, the LEAP and DISP programs grew exponentially. Senator Bill Dodd ’74 selected Justin-Siena to be the beneficiary of his annual holiday fundraiser, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for perimeter security and for our tuition assistance program. For all of this, we say thank you.
