Kent School to Celebrate Ribbon Cutting for Osprey Innovation Center and Renovated Deborah C. Williams Middle School

Together We Soar Capital Campaign: Thursday, September 24, at 5:30 p.m.

Kent School will celebrate the completion of two significant projects made possible through its Together We Soar Capital Campaign with a ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday, September 24, at 5:30 p.m. The ceremony will mark the official opening of the new Osprey Innovation Center and the newly renovated Deborah C. Williams Middle School

Members of the press are invited to attend the ribbon cutting and tour the newly completed spaces. The Kent School Board of Trustees, School leaders, faculty, campaign supporters and members of the Kent School community will gather to celebrate these transformative additions to the School’s campus and the opportunities they will provide for students for years to come.

The Osprey Innovation Center was designed to expand opportunities for hands-on, interdisciplinary learning, encouraging students to explore science, technology, engineering, art, design and innovation. The renovated Deborah C. Williams Middle School provides updated learning spaces designed to support Kent School’s Middle School students and faculty while creating an environment that fosters collaboration, curiosity and academic growth.

The projects are central to Kent School’s Together We Soar Capital Campaign, which was launched to strengthen the School’s facilities and endowment. The campaign reflects the generosity and commitment of alumni, parents, grandparents, trustees, friends and community members who believe in Kent School’s mission and its future. Through generous support, Together We Soar raised $2 million for these transformative initiatives.

“This evening will be a celebration of what is possible when a community comes together with a shared vision.” said Nancy Mugle, Head of School. “The Osprey Innovation Center, the renovated Deborah C. Williams Middle School and strengthened endowment represent an important investment in our students and in the future of Kent School. We are deeply grateful to everyone whose generosity and hard work helped bring these projects to life.”

Following the Ribbon Cutting, Kent School will host a reception for donors in recognition of the generous supporters who helped make the projects possible.

Media are invited to attend the ribbon cutting at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 24. For additional information or to arrange interviews, please contact Tricia Cammerzell, Assistant Head of School for Advancement at tcammerzell@kentschool.org
