As New Hampton School approaches its third century of college preparatory education, we enter an exciting chapter in the school’s venerable history. Today we are proud to announce the kickoff of GO BEYOND: The Campaign for New Hampton School.

 

Founded in the school’s strategic plan and comprehensive in nature, GO BEYOND will support initiatives in three critical areas. Each of these initiatives: construction and restoration, growth of the school’s endowment, and growth of the Annual Fund will have a powerful impact on the school, providing the leverage and resources to reach its greatest potential. The campaign represents New Hampton School’s commitment to preparing our students for life and learning in the twenty-first century.

 

New Hampton School today is healthy and vibrant. Empowered by a distinctive, three-pronged strategic plan, unanimously adopted in April of 2007 by the Board of Trustees, the school has embarked on a historic journey to meet the challenges of the next 100 years. GO BEYOND brings together our longstanding strengths and traditions with vital, relevant, and cutting-edge curriculum, programs, and facilities for the twenty-first century.

 

We are off to a strong start. In the last twenty-four months, New Hampton School has raised over $20,000,000 in gifts and pledges towards our goal of $30,000,000. With your help, we have constructed The Pilalas Center for Math and Science and Kennedy Field, a synthetic turf field. The last two years have seen unprecedented growth in the Annual Fund, and we are just beginning!

 

We hope you will visit campus soon to see for yourself the exciting direction your school is headed. There is much to celebrate and much work to be done. In the coming months, we will begin a major renovation project of Meservey Hall, and we will set to work on significantly growing the school’s endowment. Now, more than ever, New Hampton School needs you.

 

We close today with great appreciation for your support with hopes you will join us in taking New Hampton School to new heights.

Together, we will GO BEYOND!

All the best,

Dean Jacobson ’68
