  Dear Stonebridge Community,
The Viersen Foundation has gifted Stonebridge Academy with $250,000 to establish the Maralynn Viersen Sant Endowment Fund. This endowment will help make a difference in the lives of students at Stonebridge for generations. This is a major milestone for the school. Not all schools have endowments, and this puts us in the ranks of those that do. The hope is that we will continue to receive endowment gifts, and build our endowment into a substantial vehicle of financial support for the school. Back when Stonebridge Academy was only a dream, Maralynn had faith that Stonebridge Academy would make a difference in the lives of the students in Okmulgee. Thank you seems inadequate for what this means to our students, to our staff, to me, and to our community. The Viersen Foundation’s generosity is reflected in the faces of our students every day with the joy I see in them as they learn and grow! Yours truly, Wren Wren Hawthorne Head of School Stonebridge Academy Be Kind, Work Hard, Get Smart My blog: http://www.sbridgeacademy.org/mr-hawthornes-blog
