Dear Members of our Village School Family,

It gives me great pleasure to share our 2021-2022 Gratitude Report. This publication contains contributions made between August 1, 2021 and July 31, 2022. These gifts were made by all of us: parents, grandparents, faculty & staff, trustees, grantors, and friends. We are grateful for each and every one of you, as each of us is a part of The Village School of Naples.

After a tumultuous 2020, we happily welcomed families back to campus in August of 2021, thrilled to be together again after the summer break. TVS is proud to have maintained its excellent level of safety in the classroom and throughout campus, recognizing that keeping our students learning in classrooms and not at home was of prime importance for their education, health and well-being.

As parents, our children’s happiness is our ultimate goal. At TVS, we are proud to know, nurture, and love your child and, under His guidance, we strive to ignite curiosity and the passions that each child possesses.

Thank you for sharing your children with us, entrusting them to the faculty and staff with whom they laugh and learn each day. As a community, we are committed to providing the finest Village School Experience for all students, implementing the importance and understanding of our Christ Skills as the foundation of good citizenship and Christian values.

Your support of our school is tremendous! We appreciate your participation in all areas of the school including the Village Fund, the On Track for our Future Capital Campaign, and the Gala.

We applaud our volunteers for their countless hours of dedicated assistance as leaders, committee members, room parents, and more. You have graciously given your time and talent to us, and we are grateful.

I would be remiss if I didn’t also share my gratitude for the extraordinary volunteers that are our Board of Trustees.

Comprised of current parents, alumni parents, and church members, these men and women are some the most dedicated and passionate people I know. I am grateful for their leadership and support.

Last year’s generous gifts to the Village Fund and Gala resulted in the purchase of bleachers for the track & field, additional iPads for all divisions, and collapsible risers for the Lauren Tayon Drama Studio, as well as faculty programs and other campus improvements.

Every gift makes a difference.

I invite you to peruse the 2021-2022 Gratitude Report and read first-hand the names of your fellow parents and others whose generosity of time, talent and treasure are present throughout.

How fortunate we are to live in such a warm and giving community.

With gratitude,

Dennis Chapman Head of School
