Watch the New Arbor View Society Movie

Launching a Brighter Tomorrow

 

We invite you to watch the new AVS presentation which Mrs. Baldwin produced for our school.  Click on this link http://www.cardenarborview.org/movies/AVS_2011.mov

 

October is AVS pledge month. What is Arbor View Society? Arbor View Society,(AVS) is Carden's annual giving campaign. Like other private schools, Carden relies on annual giving to support expenses that are not covered by the costs of tuition .  Look to the south of our campus as our grade schoolers enjoy the colorful and creative playground environment.  This, along with a renovated science lab, iMac computers, SMART boards and Edline software are just a few of the numerous enhancements that generous contributions have allowed.

 

For more information, contact your AVS Grade Level Chairs.  Special thanks to our AVS Chairs, Mrs. Trish Poupard and Mrs. Rossana Baldwin for their leadership with AVS this year!  Read more

 

Please fill out your pledge forms today! Our goal is 100% from all our families, board of trustees and staff!

If you have already made your pledge, thank you for helping our school Launch a Brighter Tomorrow!
