Completing the Third Week
Dear Parents, Grandparents and Guardians,
Last weekend marked the midway point in Hargrave's 2015 Summer School and Camp. It has been a very productive summer so far, and I've been happy with our student's performance. While four weeks is not a lot of time to work with a young man, I hope you're seeing some positive changes in how he approaches academic work and engages peers.

Our regular school affords our young men more time and opportunities to advance themselves. If you're seeing positive change, it is not unexpected. Consider a regular year at Hargrave. Midterm grades were provided this week. Grades are found on in the Academy's myBackpack grade portal. If you're not able to access this portal, please contact Mrs. Kim Haymes Fowlkes, Hargrave's Registrar at 434-432-2574. Dialogue with our parents is incredibly important. If you have questions, please contact Dr. Jim Tung, Hargrave's Summer School and Camp Coordinator, at 434-441-6719. Dr. Tung can also be reached at [email protected]. He is the best person to discuss your son's total summer performance both in and out of the classroom. He can knock down barriers, open up discussions and develop strategies. After exams last Saturday, the students were able to participate at an indoor rock climbing gym in Raleigh. On Sunday, they took to the field and wood course for paintball for another large game of paintball. This coming weekend highlights a new movie, a big Wet'n Wild trip and the last paintball game. I've been informed this last paintball game will feature some nice prizes. Have a great week! Best Regards,
