At last year’s Soirée, you “raised your paddle” to support the NYA Learning Commons. Together we raised over $150,000 at the Soi‐ rée to support this state‐of‐the‐art library. Thanks to you, NYA will transform our current library into a modern, two‐story facility that will include a variety of flexible work spaces, collabora ve work rooms, faculty offices, and integrated technology. This space will fill an important need for the overall student experience and sup‐ port the students in individual and collabora ve academic pur‐ suits. Construc on will begin this summer with a November 2019 comple on date. On behalf of all the students and teachers at NYA, thank you for your generosity. Sincerely, Benjamin Jackson Head of School
