A Day for Friendship - Wednesday, February 14th is Great Hearts
Day! We have reserved this special day to focus on the virtue of
friendship and celebrate the traits that make a great-hearted student.
Teachers are planning interactive and fun activities centered around
these topics, and time will be set aside for students to create hand-made
Great Hearts Day cards for their classmates. Archway Arete strives to
cultivate a rich, academic environment rooted in the classical tradition.
This many times requires popular culture to be left at the door. On
that note, students will not be permitted to bring store-bought valentines
, candy, or gifts to school. Thank you for partnering with us.
