Nurturing the Whole Child S St. Andrew’s School in Richmond, Virginia, has a whole-child approach that nur- tures the intellectual, creative, moral, and spiritual growth of children, preparing students for success in school, in academics, and in life. With the values of mutual respect, education, faith, and unconditional love, St. Andrew’s fosters the com- plete child in and outside of the classroom. Last year, St. Andrew’s celebrated 125 years since its founding. Head of School, Dr. Cyndy Weldon-Lassiter, is looking forward to the future, saying, “We have the opportunity to continue to grow the school in ways that are going to impact the greater community.” WRITTEN BY Sarah DuBose PHOTOGRAPHY BY Dennis McWaters 38 PEACHYTHEMAGAZINE.COM
