PARENT PROFILE

MR . PAUL AVERY AND DR . URANIA

POULIS-AVERY P ’ 23

Mr . Paul Avery and Dr . Urania Poulis-Avery P ’ 23 , are pleased to support the Fordham Prep educational mission based on Faith , Scholarship and Service . The Averys recently made a generous donation to the Prep ’ s Classroom Technology Initiatives that will involve the installation of new projection boards , projectors and speakers , HDMI installations , and new digital whiteboards .

Dr . Poulis-Avery , a clinical psychologist , stated , “ I think if you ’ re able to , why wouldn ’ t you support education , especially here at the Prep ? I think it ’ s such an important basis for how your children approach life .”
The couple , parents of Fordham Prep student Nicholas Avery ’ 23 , have found the school to be a welcoming and supportive educational environment for their son . They are proud of Nicholas ’ s educational achievements and have enjoyed cheering him on at his cross-country and track meets . Mr . Avery feels that Nicholas has benefited greatly from the Prep ’ s diverse student body , with boys attending the Prep from many different walks in life and geographic points throughout New York City and the metro area .
The Averys have been impressed with the ways in which the Prep fosters the Jesuit mission of cura personalis — care for the entire individual — in addition to humility and service to others . When asked why he felt connected to Fordham Prep , Mr . Avery , a graduate of Georgetown University , stated that the Jesuit Grad at Grad “ has stood the test of time .” “ It ’ s a very steady rudder ,” he added . “ You can feel the difference when you are with a bunch of Prep students who ’ ve had a certain grounding ,” noting the benefits of an education focused on developing qualities rooted in Ignatian values .
Interestingly , Mr . Avery has found time to read many of the books assigned in Nicholas ’ s English classes , realizing their value for himself as well . It ’ s no wonder , then , that the Averys decided to bestow their gift to the Prep in memory of Mr . Avery ’ s late father , John Avery , a devout Catholic and supporter of educational and Catholic institutions . “ Education was very important in my family and Paul ’ s family ,” said Dr . Poulis-Avery , explaining further their reason for giving .
Realizing how much time Prep students spend in school rather than at home drove the Averys ’ desire to help make the educational environment at Fordham Prep the best it can be . “ Everybody gives back in their own way ,” Dr . Poulis-Avery stated , recognizing all the hard work put in by the parents , teachers , and staff at the Prep . “ We ’ ve been very impressed with how much time people donate ,” she added .
The Averys have frequently attended Fordham Prep Mothers ’ and Fathers ’ Club events and have been regulars at the school ’ s annual Igniting Our Mission galas . The Averys wish to recognize Father Devron ’ s great leadership at Fordham Prep and his success in enlarging the school ’ s endowment . They wish Father Devron the best in his new position as President of Regis High School . n
