From the HSF President's Desk 2025

Dear Haldane Families,

On behalf of the Haldane School Foundation (HSF), welcome to the start of another exciting school year! We hope your summer was filled with rest, adventure, and quality time with family and friends.

As we begin this new chapter together, I want to share some exciting updates:

Celebrating 25 Years of HSF

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Haldane School Foundation! To celebrate this milestone, we’ve introduced a fresh new logo and updated brand that reflects our mission and our future. You’ll see the new look featured on our materials, event promotions, and spirit gear throughout the year.

💙 A Gift from the Class of 1975

We are deeply grateful to the Haldane Class of 1975, who honored our anniversary with a generous $1,000 donation. Their gift is a testament to the long-lasting impact of the Haldane community and the way alumni continue to give back to support current students.

🤝 Community Support Fund

HSF is proud to continue offering the Community Support Fund, which ensures that all Haldane students have access to school events, trips, and activities, regardless of financial circumstances. This fund reflects our commitment to equity and inclusion, and we will continue to work with the school principals to disseminate funds.

✨ Looking Ahead

This year, HSF is excited to:

• Fund innovative classroom grants that bring new resources and opportunities to our students through an annual grant cycle.

• Host beloved community events like our Fall Fundraiser at Glynwood (Nov. 8), the Turkey Trot (Nov. 27) and Trivia Night at Industrial Arts (Feb. 7).

• Expand opportunities for families and local businesses to get involved in meaningful ways. 

🙌 How You Can Help

• Join us: Our number one goal is supplementing student enrichment, and right behind that is our commitment to hosting fun events that bring together the Haldane and broader community. We look forward to seeing you at one, two, or all of the HSF events this year!

• Donate: Every contribution, big or small, helps us fund grants that directly impact classrooms. You can give to HSF directly through our website, support us by attending an event, or—better yet—donate to and bid on our auction at the Fall Fundraiser at Glynwood (Nov. 8).

• Engage: Follow us on social media, read our newsletters, and spread the word about HSF.

💙 Together for Haldane

Our school community is strong because of people like you—parents, teachers, staff, alumni, and neighbors—who believe in investing in the future of our children. We look forward to a school year filled with learning, laughter, and community spirit.

Thank you for being part of the HSF family. Here’s to a wonderful year ahead and to celebrating 25 years of impact together!

Warmly,

Kristen Sherman

President, Haldane School Foundation
