FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL
Dear Virginia Chance School Family and Friends,
SHAZAM! It’s our SUPERHERO AUCTION, and I thank you for being here to support Virginia
Chance School! Supporting the students of Virginia Chance School—“This looks like a job for
Superman!” Thank you so much for being a hero to our school and especially to the children
of our school!
I hope you have a wonderful evening tonight—enjoying time with other parents, grandparents,
and friends. Then POW! BAM! AND KA-POW—I hope you win some unique items during the
silent auction and outbid others on those very special items during our live auction. I hope you
are so SUPER tonight and committed to your children and their school that your bids are frequent
and high, knowing that you are not just getting fantastic items, but more importantly, you are
helping your child and Virginia Chance School. That is being a HERO.
The Auction is the second major fundraiser of our year—that means we depend on the monies
raised tonight. Your attendance here and the items you purchase make it possible for our school to
turn dreams into realities and for your child to benefit in every area. In the words of Spiderman,
“With great power comes great responsibility.” Tonight we will also do something very important
and significant for the children of Virginia Chance School. We will have a special time during the
live auction when your bids will make it possible for children of all socio-economic levels to be
part of our school. The Mary Maple Financial Aid Fund means children whose families cannot
afford a Virginia Chance School education will get to learn and go to school just as your own
children do. It means your child gets a more diverse community of learners as we open our school
to other children and their families. Our goal is for the Mary Maple Financial Aid Fund to enable
more children to get this extraordinary independent school education, and you will make a
difference by helping us reach this goal. YOU have the great power to give to benefit others.
Please join me in thanking Melanie Salsbury, our Auction Chair! She is a real SUPERHERO who
has been ZOOMING and CRACKING and putting in many, many months of work to produce
this auction. Thank you, Melanie, and the Auction Committee Chairs for doing MIGHTY WORK!
Melanie, our Auction Committees and many wonderful parent volunteers worked to make tonight
a reality. Brookes Pope, our Development Director, and I are most grateful for you and to you!
Each one of you can make this a real SUPER HERO Auction by being a real hero! Bid, get that
item, give to the Mary Maple Financial Aid Fund, make a friend and build our Virginia Chance
community. Batman said, “It’s not who we are underneath, but what we DO that defines us.”
Tonight, you will do mighty, powerful, amazing, super things for Virginia Chance School. I know
you are dedicated to your children, their education and their school. May your dedication lead
you to an evening of giving generously and having fun on behalf of the children of Virginia Chance
School! Just like Superman, may you also say, “I’ll never stop fighting, ever!”
I am committed to fighting for our school and want you to join the League!

MARY MAPLE FINANCIAL AID FUND
On the night of February 27th, it is our goal to elevate the Mary Maple Fund to heights it has not seen
before. To do this, we want you to know a bit about this VERY important resource for our school.
Who was Mary Maple?
Mary Maple was a Virginia Chance School parent with three children who started our school as
preschoolers and graduated from the program: Justin, Adam and Meredith. Mary was an involved
parent, like you, who drove on field trips, helped with class parties and helped her children with
homework. She volunteered to help in the office, sub in the classroom and go on the End-of-theYear Trip. Mary lost her battle with cancer in 1995 before her children had graduated. Mary, Mike
(her husband), Justin, Adam and Meredith loved Chance School. Because her whole family believed
in the mission of the school, the Maple family established the Mary Maple Financial Aid Fund in
her memory. Mary’s memory and positive impact on the children and families of Virginia Chance
School continues today.
Why the need for the
Mary Maple Financial Aid Fund?
Part of Virginia Chance School’s mission is to attract and retain a diverse community of learners. The Mary Maple Fund underscores the school’s commitment to making Virginia Chance School
accessible to families, regardless of their ability to afford this extraordinary independent school
education. More families than ever need financial help to send their child to our school. In fact,
the amount of financial aid awarded has almost tripled over the last five years. Each year, this fund
provides need-based tuition assistance to approximately 17-22 percent of our students. Financial
aid is critical to maintaining socio-economic diversity in our school, and we must remain available
to families to stay true to the values we want to instill in our students. Some families make dramatic
sacrifices to send their children to Virginia Chance School, and even a modest amount of financial
aid can have a meaningful impact.
How can you help?
As is our tradition at our Auction, the night of February 27th, we want you to get to know and be a
part of the Mary Maple Financial Aid Fund. We want you to know who Mary Maple was; we want
you to hear the impact her life has on our school and students through that Fund; and then we want
you to give at whatever level you can to ensure its continued health and growth.
Thank you for your generosity and support of
The Mary Maple Financial Aid Fund!
