Dear Future Friars, Partnering School Leaders, and School Communities:
It is with great pleasure that we say welcome back to school! I trust your time away, whether counted in days or weeks, has been enjoyable, renewing, adventurous and interwoven with fun and relaxation. It’s time to get back to business.
We are excited to have a new Freshman class made of almost 300 students. We are on to doing the work for our next 3 classes, the Class of 2026, 2027 and 2028. Today’s communication is filled with news of what is happening at Fenwick High School and includes many up and coming opportunities for your students that are interested in attending Fenwick High School, or are now beginning the process of selecting where they want to attend high school.
Warmest Regards,
