Our Dragon Fund Annual Campaign is underway and will run through October 10, 2025!
Our Dragon Fund Annual Campaign is underway and will run through October 10, 2025!
This year’s theme is “10 for Ten – Family Giving Challenge”. We’re asking each SAE family to share our campaign link with 10 friends or relatives to help us reach our ambitious goal of $75,000.
If each family contributes the recommended $250 gift, we will reach our goal together. Every donation, no matter the size, directly supports SAE’s mission to be a place where our students, teachers, and families can thrive. These funds provide the additional resources needed for projects across Preschool and K–8—helping us create an even stronger future for our children.

The Dragon Fund is the heartbeat of SAE’s yearly funding. Your support ensures that we can provide innovative programs, inspiring learning spaces, and resources that go above and beyond what tuition covers. Together, every dollar counts—and every family counts!
At SAE, every single contribution is maximized. We leverage gifts from our families when applying for grants and foundation support, multiplying the impact of your generosity. And because 100% of Dragon Fund donations go directly back into the school, your contribution immediately benefits your child and every student.
These gifts also allow us to do the extras that make the SAE experience exceptional—special projects, enhanced learning opportunities, and enrichment activities that spark curiosity and creativity.

Fiesta Latina
Fiesta Latina
K-8 Parents,
We are excited to announce that our school will be celebrating our Annual Fiesta Latina on Friday, September 26th, as part of Hispanic Heritage Month! This special in-house field trip will allow our students to experience and learn about the rich traditions, music, food, and culture of Latin America through engaging hands-on activities and celebrations.
To help cover the cost of food, drinks, and other materials used for the activities, we kindly ask for a $10 contribution per student. This will allow us to provide an authentic and meaningful experience for all of our students right here at school. Also, parents are invited to join us at 2:00 pm for performances from our school Orchestra and other grade levels.
Thank you for your continued support in making this celebration both educational and memorable for our children.

Hi SAE Families!
We wanted to send a quick reminder about Mini Melts Fridays!
Mini Melts are at SAE this summer. Treat yourself every Friday around 4 PM — just $5 per cup. You’re welcome to enjoy your treat outside the building after your little dragon has been picked up for the day, but we do ask that ice cream is not eaten inside the school.
