Paddle Raise: Pegasus Multimedia Lab

At The Pegasus School, we believe true learning is about connecting with a whole world of ideas, questions, people, and possibilities.

In this day and age, it is vital to provide children with the tools to make meaningful connections - globally and locally - in a world full of information. Becoming avid readers, creative thinkers, curious researchers, and wise leaders requires exploring ideas across multiple forms of media.

Through your support, the Pegasus Multimedia Lab would provide an innovative, engaging environment with hands-on access to the latest tools and technology. Students will develop skills in film and television production, graphic design, audio mixing and recording, animation, podcast creation, live-event streaming, and more. The lab will be an invaluable addition for our teachers, who can use it as a secondary classroom resource. This space will be thoughtfully designed for fostering creativity, encouraging collaboration, and developing realworld skills. Together, we can make the dream of a modern, interactive Pegasus Multimedia Lab a reality.

At the conclusion of our Gala’s Live Auction on March 18, we will host a special paddle raise for the Pegasus Multimedia Lab. Join us by raising your paddle at whatever donation level is meaningful to you. If you’re unable to attend the Gala and would like to support this important initiative, please contact Elle Charles, Director of Advancement.

THANK YOU FOR RAISING YOUR PADDLE TONIGHT!
