From Tim: Grateful for Community
Dear Families,
Tomorrow is Grand People Day, and we look forward to welcoming nearly 300 guests. This is a special day for visitors who come to see performances, our classrooms and this year, a special breakfast just for Grand People. (Parents, please join us in the Hambidge Commons community gathering space for coffee and refreshments during that time.)
With gratitude for all you do to help make our community inviting and inclusive, I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving break with friends and family.
All the best,
Tim
Top Five Things
1. Did you know a gift of stock can go a long way this year...
A gift to The Stanley Fund of highly appreciated stock is a win-win for you and Stanley. There are no capital gains taxes on shares you donate, and you get a deduction for the full market value on donations of shares held for more than a year. Plus, Stanley receives a larger gift because what you’re donating is worth more now than it was when you bought it. Best of all, your gift helps all of us fulfill Stanley’s mission of developing independent thinkers and lifelong learners! Email us for details on how to make this simple yet impactful donation. Or, if you prefer to make your contribution now, donate directly at stanleybps.org/donate.

3. Sibling Applications Due!
4. Do you know what to do in an emergency?
Stanley periodically practices emergency procedures for lockout, lockdown and weather events. We've got a drill for lockdown coming on Nov. 27. Training with students and staff takes away some of the worries about knowing what to do in any of these situations, and these days it means learning a new vocabulary. To learn more about each scenario and see some dos and don'ts for parents, check out the Campus Safety & Security section of the Parent & Family Handbook. >>more
