Dear MPA Community,

It is an honor to thank our donors and community members for making the MPA mission come to life each and every day. With your generosity and support, MPA continues to ensure our community has the unwavering ability to dream big and do right.

During the 2024-25 school year, more than 815 donors demonstrated their support of the MPA Fund raising $560,355 in support of MPA’s operations. Through the Center for Inclusive Teaching and Learning, faculty and staff benefited from professional development in differentiation and Understanding By Design, and further embedded MPA’s Portrait of a Graduate Competencies into the school program and curriculum. Your contributions provided support for our academic, arts, and athletics programs—giving every member of our community the opportunity to engage in incredible experiences, professional development, and community learning throughout the school year.

In honor of retired head of school, Dr. Bill Hudson, our community raised $707,000 for the Hudson Fund for Resilient Students. The fund aims to uphold student well-being, equity of opportunity, and access to the full MPA experience. Support takes the form of financial assistance, academic accommodations, or access to key programs and experiences. With such an exceptional foundation to grow from, the Hudson Fund for Resilient Students will undoubtably have a tremendous impact for years to come.

Each day I have the privilege of engaging with various constituents of our community. I continue to be overwhelmed by the commitment each member has to the mission and vision of MPA. Our community is extraordinary thanks to your continued commitment and belief in our program. As you scroll below, through MPA’s 2024-25 Annual Report, I hope that will be reaffirmed for you as well.

-Dr. Lori-Anne Brogdon, Head of School
