Randolph School hosted its longstanding Under the Christmas Tree at the Von Braun Center’s South Hall. The weekend event is Randolph School’s largest fundraiser and contributes more than $100,000 to Randolph’s Tailored Tuition program, which is designed to offset the cost of tuition for families.

The three-day holiday shopping marketplace featured specialty merchants from the local community and around the southeast region. The event featured special sections and activities for everyone: Mimosas at the Market offered refreshments and vendor discounts. Children of all ages joined Randolph Middle School Art Teacher Mrs. Vinchenza Sweet to make their own art projects. At Gingerbread Dreams, children decorated a keepsake gingerbread house. Storytime with Santa offered a special visit with a reading of “The Night Before Christmas.”

Randolph School is the area’s only K-12 independent, college preparatory school. Randolph School is committed to providing excellence in academics, the arts and athletics. Students become lifelong thinkers, creative problem solvers, and fearless leaders as they learn to embrace their full potential. n
