Welcome

Seasons Greetings, patrons!

With joyous holiday traditions, renowned musical performances, and community celebrations, you are in for a merry and bright season at the Center.

This month marks a very special time. Our official dance company, American Ballet Theatre, will be returning to the stage for the 10th anniversary of the holiday classic

The Nutcracker, with Tchaikovsky’s magical score performed by our resident company Pacific Symphony. Each season, we are overjoyed to present students from our ABT William J. Gillespie School the life-changing opportunity to perform this celebrated piece with professional ABT dancers on stage. This ballet classic has become a staple for us at the Center, and we encourage you to add this stunning performance to your list of holiday traditions!

Broadway artist Tony Yazbeck‘s lively tunes and showstopping tap dance will delight audiences in his one-man show. Jessica Vosk celebrates the holiday spirit in SLEIGH; her powerful vocals and endearing personality will fill you all with musical cheer.

To close out the month, GRAMMY® Award-winning Mariachi Los Camperos performs Fiesta Navidad, and Salute to Vienna New Year’s Concert returns for this beloved annual tradition for every music lover’s holiday wish list.

And for more celebrations, Pacific Symphony has many holiday shows as well including Handel’s Glorious Messiah and a Holiday Organ Spectacular

That old familiar song... on TikTok

Is Stella Cole living in the past? Considering the songs she loves to sing, we might all want to join her. We certainly can be grateful for the reminder of how great these songs are. Hear for yourself when she makes her Cabaret Series debut next month.

Cole came to fame posting her songs on TikTok, but the songs harked back to her grandparents’ generation. “Over the Rainbow,” “The Boy Next Door,” “Moon River,” “My Foolish Heart,” and American standards by artists like Judy Garland and Nat “King” Cole come from an earlier time—from artists who never knew they would go “viral.”

Growing up, Cole loved watching and singing along to classic movies like Meet Me in St. Louis and Singin’ in the Rain, but by the time she grew up and left for Northwestern University, she had stopped. Ironically, she was double majoring in international studies and theater. This in spite of the fact that she was now terrified of singing in front of people.

But in one theater class, the professor suggested she turn to the wall to sing and ignore the class. She did and blew everyone away. Her classmates were astonished, and Cole’s fear was broken.

When Covid hit, she returned home, where her father encouraged her to keep singing.

continued from page 8

He suggested she try the very modern creation of YouTube where she was a hit. Cole also went viral on a new thing called TikTok, and everything took off. She says it makes sense, since many of the songs she loves were popular in the 1930s and ’40s during the Great Depression and World War II, another time of uncertainty and unpredictability.

“During the pandemic lockdown, thousands of people were sending me messages saying, ‘You don’t know how much you’ve helped me,’ and ‘your music is the one thing cheering me on right now,’” says Cole. “I hadn’t realized that music had that kind of power to help people.

“It’s amazing to think that my music can be a bit of a salve or balm for people’s stress and anxiety,” continues Cole. “That’s the most gratifying thing of all, experiencing how this music can actually help people.”

Obviously, there are many people who sing the same kind of music, but Cole takes it to a new level. She has produced three albums as well as numerous singles and is getting rave reviews. Her social media following of 1.7 million (and growing) certainly helps.

“So many people of my generation aren’t familiar with these songs, and I’m excited about the opportunity to introduce this timeless music to a new audience,” she told Broadwayworld.

com. “These songs were written decades before I was born, yet they feel like they are about my life.”

Social media is all very well, but a singer of Cole’s caliber needs more than that. She moved to New York City and started working as a dog walker while she tried to launch her career. She eventually got a job singing with a band at a restaurant, and then another, and another, until she had a full-fledged schedule. Then she graduated to stages. The dogs had to find new friends.

After a European tour and an appearance at the renowned 54 Below in New York City, it’s safe to say that Cole has a very bright future ahead of her. And she will no doubt keep growing those social media views. What does she ultimately want?

“I’ve seen the way music, and specifically this music, can touch people’s souls,” she says. “That sounds [silly], but as an artist, that’s the goal.” There is no doubt she’s already there.

An epic love story

A notebook. It’s a simple thing, but what is written in it can also tell quite a story.

Considered by many to be the pinnacle of romantic stories, The Notebook started as a book by Nicholas Sparks. It then became a movie, and now it’s a Tony®-nominated hit Broadway musical. You may know the story by heart, but you haven’t seen it like this.

“The Notebook hasn’t lost its romantic magic,” says the Guardian USA Today calls it “life-affirming and ingeniously adapted,” while The New Yorker says it “feels as fresh as the rainwater that drenches the meant-for-eachother lovers.”

You don’t need a spoiler alert. A young couple, one from a wealthy family, one from a poor family, fall in love and, despite all obstacles thrown at them over the ensuing decade, finally get together and live happily ever after … almost. Years later, Allie is now in a nursing home with Alzheimer’s and unable to recall much of her past. Noah visits every day, reading to her from a notebook that tells their story. He hopes this will jog her memory to recall their life together.

There are three sets of leads—young Allie and Noah, the middle-aged pair, and old Allie and Noah. Sometimes they are on stage at the same time. It may sound confusing but it works

as the story is told in a non-linear way. The middle-aged couple might watch a flashback of their meeting the summer they first fell in love. Older Allie sees young and middle-aged Allie, who remind her that all her selves are still with her.

Probably the most difficult part of The Notebook is the role Alzheimer’s plays in the story. In a sense, it’s the whole reason for the story. Can Noah help Allie remember their love story? As the musical recounts their lives together, it’s a poignant reminder of how they are now torn apart by this disease. Allie lives with a cloud of confusion about her life. How much can she remember and share with Noah, if only for a few hours?

“It turns out, The Notebook is why we go to the theater,” says Cleveland.com. “To get swept up, forget the world outside and feel everything. There are tears, but laughter and joy too.”

The Notebook will remind you all over again how love has the ability to conquer all. Take the words of the Chicago Tribune: “Absolutely gorgeous, not to be missed.”

Introducing Alexander Shelley

In November 2024, for the first time in more than three decades, Pacific Symphony announced it had named Alexander Shelley as its new artistic and music director.

Shelley—a highly respected British conductor who has been a transformational leader of orchestras in Europe and North America—will serve as Pacific Symphony’s artistic and music director designate this season (2025–26), before fully taking on his new role as artistic and music director in 2026–27. Known for inspiring musicians and audiences alike, Alexander Shelley looks forward to making deep connections with both Pacific Symphony’s musicians and the Orange County community. We spoke with him about what he sees as his role here, how he shares the wonder of his work, his insatiable musical curiosity, and his goal of inspiring audiences of all ages and interests.

What is it about this role at Pacific Symphony that excites you?

AS: Pacific Symphony is poised for great things. In less than 50 years it has been built into something truly extraordinary—one of America’s major orchestras and a cultural pillar of this region. The musicians are passionate, collaborative, and fearless in their pursuit of excellence, and the audiences are enthusiastic and curious. I’m inspired by the sense of possibility here, the generosity of the community, the orchestra’s adventurous spirit, and the opportunity to help shape Pacific Symphony’s next chapter on both a national and international stage.

Collaboration is often evident in your programming; you combine other types of arts—visual art, dance, etc.—with your orchestra programs. Will we see some of this in the coming seasons?

AS: I’m a great believer in the impact of

cross-disciplinary collaborations. There are extraordinary partnerships to be explored. It’s exciting to think of the possibilities!

Everyone has a different personal connection or entry-point to the arts—people respond viscerally to rhythm or poetry or movement or music, and it’s my role to invite everyone to find their entry point to that world. This is how we grow audiences, and it’s also how we inspire artists as well. I love working in this playground of creativity and giving people the opportunity to discover things that move them.

What does community mean to you and how will it be underlined during your time with Pacific Symphony?

AS: The stories of our time fascinate me. Bringing those stories to life through music is essential for reflecting who we are and the world in which we live. When we do this— especially through new work—we reach curious, engaged people through art. Connecting with contemporary music also renews our appreciation of masterpieces from the past; they were once new, and their premieres often also had powerful receptions!

For me, community encompasses our whole ecosystem—extraordinary musicians, loyal audiences, students and youth ensembles, and those discovering the orchestra for the very first time. Who we commission, our collaborators, and how we create experiences that inspire the next generation shapes our community. I’ve seen how thoughtful programming and genuine outreach can change lives, and I’m excited to build on Pacific Symphony’s incredible legacy of creating community through music.

How important is connection through music?

AS: Feeling a connection with an artist or with an audience opens hearts and minds and makes communication with one another easier.

Whether it’s through a four-minute pop song of pure joy or longing or sadness, or a symphony that takes listeners on a longer journey to one of those same emotions, music challenges us. It’s my job to bring our audiences along on that journey. This is true whether I’m leading a concert for kids who’ve never heard classical music or a large-scale Mahler work for our regular concertgoers—we take this journey together. The rewards of this adventure have an impact far beyond a particular moment.

What or who are some of your greatest musical influences?

AS: Certainly, in my early years, my parents were my greatest musical influence. I’ve shared with Pacific Symphony audiences before that I had the privilege of growing up in a household with five grand pianos in it. My parents were the first people I ever heard making music, and the first people I ever made music with as I was growing up. They instilled in me a sense of reverence for the score and responsibility to the composer. We are their servants, after all!

In addition to the great composers, I also have a number of conducting heroes, such as Carlos Kleiber, who inspired me through his great attention to detail coupled with enormous freedom. I have a voracious musical appetite and love exploring it all. I’ve adored jazz since I was a kid, and Oscar Peterson and Bill Evans remain idols of mine. I love producers of great pop songs and what they give the world. We live in such an exciting age for composition, with great freedom of what to create and write. There really are no limits!

Don’t miss Alexander Shelley conducting Stravinsky’s Firebird with Pacific Symphony, January 15–18, 2026—an unforgettable performance with stunning visuals at the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall.

Toast to Curtain Call

The unveiling of American artist Karon Davis’ Curtain Call, a larger-than-life sculpture of a ballerina taking her bow, was unveiled on October 2, prior to the opening of San Francisco Ballet’s production of Frankenstein in Segerstrom Hall that evening.

“I am honored and thrilled to have this piece on display at the Center,” says Davis. “The Center’s dance tradition has always been unparalleled, and Curtain Call reminds us of the reward of a great performance before the dancer heads back to the rehearsal room the next day to continue to practice.”

Curtain Call is part of an ongoing series, Beauty Must Suffer, which examines the physical and emotional labor behind the pursuit of balletic beauty, particularly among Black dancers working within the Eurocentric tradition of ballet. The work, created using a combination of 3D scanning and traditional sculpting techniques, serves as a tribute to the dancers who inhabit the Center stages. It will be displayed in the Center in the Orchestra-level lobby during the 2025–26 season.

Ease on down the road with The Wiz

What does the revival of the musical The Wiz have in common with Beyoncé’s hit “All the Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)”? Both were choreographed by the same person: JaQuel Knight. He was only 19 years old at the time he perfected Beyoncé’s hand twist.

Knight is well known in the rap and R&B world, having also choreographed for singers like Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion, Britney Spears, Kelly Rowland, and Nicole Scherzinger, and has a thriving career. So what is he doing on Broadway?

When Knight was asked to work on a musical, he could not pass on the challenge to revamp The Wiz, a legendary show. The Wiz has been a

vibrant part in Black culture since it opened and has never gone away. Although film versions didn’t do well (sorry, Michael Jackson) it’s been a firm favorite for local community productions. Everyone can sympathize with Dorothy’s search for her place in the contemporary world.

The original production of The Wiz—a groundbreaking twist on The Wizard of Oz opened on Broadway in 1975 and won seven Tony® Awards, including Best Choreography for George Faison. But that production seems dated today, and those involved with creating the 21st-century show wanted to bring it to a new era and create a performance that was timeless. (The book and sets have also been updated.)

“We took out all the buffoonery talk of the original piece, and then just made a timeless classic that’s funny, with awesome music, and what I hope is [great] dancing,” says Knight.

Knight was excited to execute his vision. He had no pre-conceived ideas of what Broadway dance “should” be and reached into his experience with Black dance to create a new energy for the characters, including Dorothy, who wears silver booties in this version.

“I dreamed as big as I could,” says Knight. “For me, it was about how do we keep the essence and energy [of the original production] and also bring JaQuel Knight to the table?”

In Knight’s version, there’s not a tap shoe in sight. “I really wanted to create something that didn’t feel super ‘now,’” Knight told dancemagazine.com. “But it takes you on a journey of Black dance. There’s a little bit of everything”

This

For a dance sequence performed at the gates of the Emerald City, Knight works his dance magic, mixing ballet, jazz, and hip hop. “Knight called his take on the number ‘a master class in Black movement, not just through the choreography but in attitude and personality,’” says The New York Times. It’s “a dizzying array of dance from the Black diaspora, from street styles out of Atlanta to Afrobeats,” says dancemagazine.com.

“Knight’s kinetic choreography successfully makes the songs visually appealing on stage,” says broadwayworld.com. “Yet most of all, this musical will certainly leave audiences feeling joyful and moved at the same time.”

And isn’t that what a great Broadway musical should do?

WHAT IS IT ABOUT THE HOLIDAYS THAT MAKES THIS TIME OF YEAR SO MAGICAL?

I love everything about this season. I love the time-honored family recipes that we only prepare this one special time of year. I love the cherished ornaments that we greet like old friends as they come out of storage. I love the pervasive smells of evergreens and peppermint and cinnamon, the giddy excitement of the children, and the sharing of nostalgic memories between the grown-ups. I even love the corny sweaters and the silly hats!

But most of all, I love the music. This is truly the season for singing! Those haunting, familiar tunes that fill the air each December somehow touch our hearts like nothing else can. When we lift our voices in song together—whether it’s friends at a party, carolers on the street corner, or even Pacific Chorale and our dear friends from the Southern California Children’s Chorus and Pacific Symphony—we become the spirit of the holidays ourselves, of peace on earth, goodwill to all. What could be more magical than that?

So welcome to “Tis the Season!” Thank you so much for making Pacific Chorale a part of your holidays. It’s a joy to have you as part of ours!

Happiest of Holidays, Rob

ROBERT ISTAD

ROBERT ISTAD, a GRAMMY ® Award-winning conductor who “fashions fluent and sumptuous readings” (Voice of OC) with his “phenomenal” artistry (Los Angeles Times) , was appointed Pacific Chorale’s Artistic Director in 2017. Under his leadership, the chorus continues to expand its reputation for excellence for delivering fresh, thoughtprovoking interpretations of beloved masterworks, rarely performed gems and newly commissioned pieces. His artistic impact can be heard on two recent recordings featuring Pacific Chorale, including the 2020 Grammy Award-winning “Mahler’s Eighth Symphony” with the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Gustavo Dudamel on Deutsche Grammophon (2021), for which he prepared the chorus. It won Best Choral Performance and also garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Engineered Album, Classical. Additionally, Istad conducted the Pacific Chorale’s recording “All Things Common: The Music of Tarik O’Regan” released on Yarlung Records (2020). Istad has prepared choruses for such renowned conductors as Esa-Pekka Salonen, John Williams, John Mauceri, Keith Lockhart, Nicholas McGegan, Vasilly Sinaisky, Sir Andrew Davis, Bramwell Tovey, Carl St.Clair, Eugene Kohn, Giancarlo Guerrero, Marin Alsop, George Fenton, and Robert Moody. He regularly conducts and collaborates with Pacific Symphony, Musica Angelica Baroque Orchestra, Sony Classical Records, Yarlung Records, Berkshire Choral International, and Long Beach Symphony Orchestra. An esteemed educator, Istad is Professor of Music and Director of Choral Studies at California State University, Fullerton, where he was recognized as CSUF’s 2016 Outstanding Professor of the Year. He conducts the University Singers and manages a large graduate conducting program, in addition to teaching courses on conducting and performance practice. Istad, who is on the Executive Board of Directors of Chorus America and serves as Dean of Chorus America’s Conducting Academy, is in demand as guest conductor, lecturer, and clinician.

PACIFIC CHORALE

The GRAMMY® Award-winning PACIFIC CHORALE, an Orange County “treasure” with a “fresh viewpoint” that “can sing anything you put in front of it with polish, poise and tonal splendor” (Orange County Register), has “risen to national prominence” (Los Angeles Times) since its inception in 1968. Hailed for delivering “thrilling entertainment” (Voice of OC), the resident choir at Segerstrom Center for the Arts is noted for its artistic innovation and commitment to expanding the choral repertoire. It has given world, U.S., and West Coast premieres of more than 40 works, including numerous commissions, by such lauded composers as John Adams, Jake Heggie, James Hopkins, David Lang, Morten Lauridsen, Tarik O'Regan, Karen Thomas, Frank Ticheli, András Gábor Virágh, and Eric Whitacre. In addition to presenting its own concert series each season, Pacific Chorale, led by Artistic Director Robert Istad, enjoys a long-standing partnership with Pacific Symphony, with which the choir made its highly anticipated Carnegie Hall debut in 2018. The chorus also regularly appears

with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, with which it won the 2022 GRAMMY® Award for Best Choral Performance for its contribution to the live recording of “Mahler: Symphony No. 8, ‘Symphony of A Thousand,’” conducted by Gustavo Dudamel, featuring Los Angeles Philharmonic, Los Angeles Children’s Chorus, Los Angeles Master Chorale, National Children’s Chorus and Pacific Chorale. The choir has performed with such leading orchestras as the Boston Symphony, National Symphony, Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, San Diego Symphony, and Musica Angelica, among others. In addition to receiving national accolades, Pacific Chorale has garnered tremendous international acclaim. In July 2023, the chorus completed its first international tour in seven years with appearances in Austria, Germany and the United Kingdom in collaboration with Bath Philharmonia, Free State Orchestra of Bavaria, and Bournemouth Symphony Chorus and Orchestra. Previous tours have taken the choir to 19 countries in Europe, South America, and Asia, including engagements with the London Symphony, Munich Symphony, L’Orchestre Lamoureux and L’Orchestre de St-Louis-en-l’Île of Paris, National Orchestra of Belgium, China National Symphony, Hong Kong Sinfonietta, Estonian National Symphony, and Orquesta Sinfonica Nacional of Argentina, among others. Deeply committed to making choral music accessible to everyone, the organization has a discography of 14 self-produced recordings and an extensive collection of free digital offerings. Recently, Pacific Chorale’s one hour choral-theatrical film To the Hands was featured as an Official Selection at the Newport Beach Film Festival, San Pedro International Film Festival, and the Culver City Film Festival. Pacific Chorale also places significant emphasis on choral music education, providing after-school vocal programs for elementary school students, a choral summer camp for high school students, and an annual community-wide singing event at Segerstrom Center for the Arts. www. pacificchorale.org

Denean won a Grammy as a member of the professional core of the Pacific Chorale, and is continually featured as a soloist. Her stirring work in the Chorale’s more demanding concert film projects—singing “Precious Lord Take My Hand” in The Wayfaring Project (PBS/YouTube) and “Holding Back the Years” in To the Hands—have garnered significant recognition, with To the Hands premiering at the 2025 Newport Beach and San Pedro Film Festivals, as well as receiving additional recognition across the national and international film festival circuit.

PACIFIC SYMPHONY is the largest orchestra formed in the United States in the past 50 years and is ranked among the top orchestras in the U.S. by the League of American Orchestras. In 2024, Alexander Shelley was appointed to become Pacific Symphony’s third artistic leader, taking the title of Artistic and Music Director, beginning in the 2026-27 season. He is serving as Artistic and Music Director Designate during the 2025-26 season, which marks Pacific Symphony’s 47th season. Founded in 1978, the Symphony was led for 35 years by Carl St.Clair, who is honored with the title of Music Director Laureate starting in the 2025-26 season. With a purpose to lift the human spirit through the power of music, the Symphony is a cornerstone of the cultural landscape of Southern California, enriching lives and bringing communities together through creative and diverse programming. As the resident orchestra of the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall, the Symphony presents more than 100 concerts and events each year and a rich array of education and community engagement programs, reaching more than 300,000 residents of all ages. Pacific Symphony features an expansive range of programming through the Classical Series, the beloved Pops Series led by Principal Pops Conductor Enrico Lopez-Yañez, SummerFest at the Great Park Live Amphitheatre in Irvine, and engaging Family Musical Mornings concerts for young children and their families. Signature cultural concerts for Lunar New Year and Nowruz are joyful musical celebrations that promote understanding and appreciation of the arts from around the world—a

priority for Pacific Symphony, which is dedicated to the power of music to unite and inspire. The Symphony in the Cities program brings free outdoor concerts and interactive musical activities to cities across Orange County, making live symphonic music accessible to all. In its 47-year history, Pacific Symphony has gained national and international recognition, with recent highlights including a 2018 Carnegie Hall debut in celebration of composer Philip Glass; a five-city tour of China; and a PBS Great Performances broadcast of Peter Boyer’s Ellis Island: The Dream of America. In 2024, Pacific Symphony released the world-premiere recording of Fiat Lux, a stirring new commission by composer Sir James MacMillan performed with longtime artistic partner Pacific Chorale.

NATALIE: Lori, you have been a part of Pacific Chorale since the beginning — first as an accompanist under John Alexander, then educator and Founding Director of Pacific Chorale’s Children’s Chorus, now Southern California Children’s Chorus (SCCC), and as an enthusiastic supporter and champion of choral music in Orange County more broadly. What makes Pacific Chorale stand out as an organization you are passionate about supporting?

LORI: I was honored to work as the accompanist for the Pacific Chorale for nearly two decades. The Chorale, with John Alexander, changed my life as a musician. I also made a ton of friends during my time in the Chorale – we worked hard and we had so much fun together even though we were

INSPIRING THE NEXT GENERATION: LORI LOFTUS ON MUSIC, MENTORSHIP, AND GIVING BACK

from different walks of life. The consistency of the Chorale, the excellence of the Chorale at that time in my life was an extraordinary experience. It is important for me to give back to an organization that has shaped my life, and my career, so profoundly.

NATALIE: Your generous $30,000 matching gift for the Pre-Season Appeal inspired over $25,000 in new donations to Pacific Chorale this fall. Thank you! What motivated you and John [Loftus] to step forward in this way?

LORI: John and I believe in stepping forward when something truly matters to us, and Pacific Chorale means the world to us both. We met and got married because of Pacific Chorale, in fact! Years ago, we began an initiative to put pianos in schools

because we understood how important it is to have excellent instruments to help develop the musical training of children. Supporting the Chorale with this match felt like a natural extension of that belief: when we invest in choral music, we are investing in the community that grows around it.

NATALIE: How do you see Pacific Chorale helping to provide opportunities for future singers and grow future audiences?

LORI: Pacific Chorale is full of promise. The singers are sounding better than ever before. It is my belief that as soon as you can get kids singing in a choir like SCCC, the experience sets them up for success to be fine musicians. More importantly, the kids become well-rounded, sensitive

individuals in a world that is increasingly distracted. I am so proud to see so many of my kids who participated in SCCC now singing with the Chorale; it’s a wonderful sort of “pipeline” we are building between the two organizations. In my view, the existing collaborations between SCCC and the Chorale, as well as proprietary programs like Pacific Chorale Academy for kids in grades 2-6, are essential in bringing more people to our concerts because of course, families want to come and see their kids onstage and experience their personal growth through singing.

NATALIE: What would you say to someone who cherishes Pacific Chorale’s performances, as you do, but hasn’t yet joined as a donor?

LORI: This is a very critical question and thank you for asking it. When someone says, “I love the Chorale, but I can’t give that much,” I always tell them that every gift makes a real difference, especially for a small organization like Pacific Chorale. At a larger organization, a modest donation can easily get absorbed into a vast budget, and it can be hard to see the direct results of your support. At Pacific Chorale, your $100 donation will bring a student to

their first performance through the Intro to the Arts program; your $500 donation allows a high school student to gain confidence singing in front of their peers for a week at Choral Camp before they set their sights on a music degree at Cal State Fullerton. We also need to remember that our support today, no matter what the level, keeps this art form alive for the next generation. If this generation doesn’t invest in live performance, we risk losing it. We need to ask ourselves: what are we leaving behind?

Want to learn more about how you can support the future of choral music through Pacific Chorale’s education programs?

From a vision that evolved from a small group of passionate parents more than 25 years ago, Sage Hill School has emerged as the leading independent high school in Orange County. The intention was to develop a school that would inspire innovative thinking, nurture creative thought and embrace community.

Inspired by the opportunity to expand on the mission and values of its founders, Sage Hill has launched a capital campaign with an ambitious goal of $25 million This campaign will enable more students to experience the impact of a Sage Hill education. As we become the first 7-12 independent school in Orange County, we seek philanthropic investment that will:

• Expand the Sage Hill program to include a middle school that educates 7th and 8th grade students

• Build a new academic and athletics facility that enhances the Sage Hill experience for all

• Strengthen the student body with increased commitment to financial assistance

Support the Campaign We invite all who are interested to play a vital role in bringing this historic milestone to life. For more information on Sage Hill’s capital campaign, including potential naming opportunities for donors, please contact:
