Message from Stratford's Senior Student Body President - 10 days ago
My name is Alex Bethune. I am a current senior at Stratford Academy. In the thirteen years I have attended Stratford, the impacts made on my life have been tremendous. During my time at Stratford, however, one of the many lessons that has stuck with me is the importance of commitment and dedication. From class projects to sports, dedication is the true virtue that can form growth and success. Stratford Academy’s investments in their students have cultivated the successes I will have in the future. As I exit Stratford and reflect on my years here, I want to express my gratitude for the many donors that have helped accelerate my education to be the best it can be. The importance of donating to Stratford Academy is greater than ever and I encourage you to join the community that makes our students’ educations and futures possible!

About
Stratford Academy could not exist without the generosity of our community. Generations of Eagles have invested in the future of our school, making it possible to fulfill our mission of challenging our students to achieve their full potential by providing a superior education and developing responsible, ethical, life-long learners.
Like most independent schools, tuition and fees do not cover the full cost of a Stratford education. Gifts to the Annual Fund provide essential resources that strengthen every part of the student experience and directly support the faculty who teach and mentor them each day.
Donors may choose to direct their support to the area that matters most:
- Area of Greatest Need - Flexible support for Stratford’s most pressing priorities.
- Academic Excellence - Resources for innovative programs and classroom learning.
- Tuition Assistance - Expanding access for deserving students.
- Campus & Grounds - Caring for our 107-acre campus.
- Athletics - Supporting student-athletes, equipment, and facilities.
- Fine Arts - Enriching creativity through music, theater, and the visual arts.
Every contribution, no matter the size, directly impacts students today and prepares them to lead with purpose tomorrow.
