Meet Jack ’18<br />

When Jack first arrived at Sandia Prep, he was<br />

hesitant to take Mandarin, but he was intrigued<br />

with the idea of learning a language using<br />

an iPad. Tracing characters and practicing<br />

intonation proved to be a perfect fit for the<br />

12-year-old Sundevil. As Jack explored the East<br />

Asian language through social interactions<br />

and teacher guidance, he knew he wanted to<br />

continue with a second year of Mandarin.<br />

Throughout the year, Jack took advantage of<br />

the Sandia Prep experience. In science, he<br />

learned how to use a microscope. During<br />

activity periods, he played tennis, basketball and<br />

baseball.<br />

Someday, Jack may work in global finance or<br />

maybe he’ll pursue his dream of playing major<br />

league baseball.<br />

kayaks<br />

microscopes<br />

financial aid<br />

uniforms<br />

iPads<br />

costumes<br />

and more<br />

Whether it’s a microscope for middle school science or a kayak for the Outdoor Leadership<br />

Program, every gift supports the total experience at Sandia Prep.<br />

An Annual Fund envelope is included in this issue of <strong>532</strong>.<br />

Every gift matters. Make it matter to you. Making a monetary gift to Sandia Prep’s Annual<br />

Fund is one of the most valuable ways you can express your support. The amount of your<br />

gift is highly personal and depends on your family’s individual circumstances. Gifts to the<br />

Annual Fund range from $25 to more that $25,000.<br />
