From the
ADVANCEMENT
TEAM
Dear Poly Family,
​
During the 2023–2024 school year, the generosity of our community played a crucial role in enriching the lives of our students and families. We are thrilled to report that we exceeded our fundraising goals for this fiscal year, raising an overall total of $13,000,000, with millions more pledged to impact the school in future years. With the generosity of 1,760 donors, we marked a phenomenal Poly Fund and Giving Day, established many endowed funds to pave the way for Poly’s future, and celebrated the completion of extraordinarily philanthropic gifts.
Personally, this past year was especially meaningful as Poly welcomed my son to Kindergarten. I now have the opportunity to experience all of Poly’s many traditions as a parent, in addition to my lens as an administrator. I am grateful to have a fuller sense of the meaning and depth of our school, while I endeavor to inspire our community to give generously to support it.
As you will read in the following pages, the work of the Advancement team goes beyond the mechanics of processing financial contributions. As we seek to connect donors and their passions with the needs of the school, we also hold on to the belief in the transformative power of education and community. It is a unique privilege for the team and me to serve the school.
I extend my deepest gratitude to each member of our expanding Poly family—parents, alumni, parents of alumni and grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends. May we reflect joyfully on the year that just was, and may we partner together in this current school year to uphold the spirit of enduring excellence that has defined Poly for generations.
With thanks,
MEREDITH ROBBINS P'36
Chief Advancement Officer
