The MISSION of the NWA Classical Academy VIP Program is to support the needs of the school by fostering excellence in classical education and building a community through VOLUNTEER and FUNDRAISING activities at NWA Classical Academy.

Objectives:

The NWA Classical Academy VIP Program is a team of parents, guardians, faculty, and staff who work together to enhance our students’ education by building relationships in order to:

• Promote open communication between our school and our parents
• Encourage student, parent, and administrator/faculty participation at school functions
• Provide an atmosphere for parental input
• Raise funds for educational and campus improvement purposes

Membership:

NWA Classical Academy VIP is open to all parents and focussed on our five key areas of improvement:

• Academics
• Athletics
• Fine Arts

• Student Life

Organizational Structure:

The VIP Program will be overseen by the VIP Steering Committee, which includes the headmaster, assistant headmaster, two faculty/staff members, one elected parent member from each of the five focus areas, and one person at large who is not a member of a focus area.

Meetings:

The VIP Program will meet quarterly. The VIP Steering Committee will meet before each whole group meeting. Focus area meetings will take place as needed, depending on current projects.
