Dear Collegiate Community, For more than three decades, Tom Davis has been an influential leader in our Wichita Collegiate School community - as a parent of three WCS graduates, a 14-year member of the Board of Trustees, and, since 2000, our beloved Headmaster. As you know, Tom will retire this June and is looking forward to spending quality time with his family. As a lasting tribute to Tom and his many contributions to Collegiate, we are launching a fundraising campaign for the creation of the “Tom Davis Legacy Endowment.” We invite you to participate by contributing securely online at Collegiate.com/TomDavisLegacy. Income from this permanent endowment will provide us with greater financial flexibility in support of our educational mission. It will help us sustain our school’s exceptional standard of excellence well into the future. Funds raised will be used to enhance student tuition support, faculty/staff development, campus improvements, technology upgrades, and other WCS priorities and initiatives. During Tom’s 33 years of involvement as Trustee and Headmaster, Collegiate has thrived. We have a beautiful campus, innovational programs, and students who graduate prepared to succeed in college and ready to take on the challenges of a changing world. As Tom has often said, “I rejoice in seeing each individual child grow and mature through their time with us.” If you want to honor Tom’s legacy, please join us in this manner as a way to celebrate him and his fierce and loyal commitment to WCS. Please help us ensure that future generations of Collegiate students will have the very best educational environment in which to thrive. We sincerely thank you for your consideration. Forward together,
