Thornton Academy Annual Report 2016-17 Developing a sustainable base of support to the Thornton Fund was the primary focus of fundraising efforts this fiscal year. Participation matters most, and gifts of every size impact the lives of students at Thornton Academy. Donations to the Thornton Fund provide breakfast and lunch to students in need, construct a state-of-the-art STEM (Science Technology Engineering Math) wing, increase academic and extracurricular offerings, invigorate the arts, and support championship level athletics. Demonstrating their confidence and dedication to Thornton Academy, the Development Committee, Board of Trustees, Class Agents and Alumni Board worked together to support all development efforts. Thank you to all of our donors! In preparing this report, every effort has been made to accurately recognize our supporters. All gifts received by the Development Office between July 1, 2016 and June 30, 2017 are listed in this report. Please inform us of any errors or omissions by calling 207-602-4460.
