Dear Parents/Guardians:
The Liguanea Preparatory School team wishes to thank you all for allowing us the opportunity to guide your child academically and socially over the last academic year.
We have an excellent learning environment with a great mixture of professionals that are appropriately trained.
This is the time of year when we do our evaluations and make the necessary adjustments if necessary.
I ask that you take a critical look at your child’s Academic Report and give us your feedback especially in terms of expectations vs. results.
Our GSAT Students performed extremely well and we are proud of them. Most of them have been placed in High Schools of their choice.
The students who will be moving on are going with our blessings. The academic and social foundation that you received from the Liguanea Preparatory School cannot be matched, so if you are going on to high school, migrating or have decided to transfer to another school we wish you all well.
To the students who will be returning or joining the Liguanea Prep. family for the first time, we will continue doing our best to ensure that you receive the best academic experience any preparatory school can offer.
You would have done your own search and evaluations on other preparatory schools and we have done the same. You would have found that we offer the best product within our price range and above.
Returning students, please ensure that you collect your reports, purchase the books soon and pay your school fees early. To the new students, please complete and sign all the documents in your acceptance package, pay your school fees as instructed and be present at orientation on Tuesday, 5th September, 2017 at 8:00am.
Most of you are great parents and we thank you for your support.
Have a great summer and ensure that your children do more reading.
May you all continue to be blessed.
Regards
P. Francis McGregor
