It's been a lovely fall so far with some gorgeous foliage AND a new addition to our herd.

It is with the utmost excitement that we announce the birth of The Charlton School's first foal, "George".

He was born on a sunny September Monday morning to our horse Jackpot of Gold, or "Jack". We intentionally took our time announcing his presence to the world to ensure that all was just right.

George is settling in beautifully here, and our students have enjoyed watching mama and baby connect in the paddock while our Equine Care Team does an incredible job of making sure the entire herd is adapting well.

Fun Fact:
When a foal is born, the name chosen for them typically relates to the names of their parents. Since we do not know the name of our foal’s father, we took from Jack’s name solely.

There were so many great ideas for the ultimate name of our campus foal. It was an extremely difficult decision that was not taken lightly, but with campus input, the foal's formal name is, "By George, We've Struck Gold," with his barn name being, "George".
George puts our herd at nine horses now, and we couldn't be more thrilled to have him as a beloved part of our community.

Enjoy the photos!

Oh, what a night! Our Among the Wildflowers fundraising event was a huge success, raising nearly $97,000 for our programs. Thank you so much to everyone who helped make it possible! Read a great wrap-up article at the link in the comments from our friends at Saratoga Living.

💜Making time for building community!

There's never truly enough time, but we cherish the moments where we get to support our partners who give back to us and our mission.

First, we want to say thank you to our partners at ADNET Technologies, who brought us as their guest to the 9 and W**e Golf Tournament to support our friends at The Wesley Community last week.

We also want to say thank you to our friends at Therapeutic Horses of Saratoga, Inc. for the awesome backstretch tour this morning as we learned more about their organization, their support of retired thoroughbreds, and their equine therapy programs.

We are all stronger when we support one another, and we are grateful for the organizations in our community who continue to support our students and families at The Charlton School.

Dear Supporters and Friends,

With just over a month away, we are writing to let you know that our first on-campus fundraiser, Among the Wildflowers, has officially sold out and registration is now closed.

With nearly 300 people's presence expected, we are humbled and grateful for the overwhelming support we have received, and we know this event is going to break records we didn't even know we had! THANK YOU! 💜

Most importantly, the outpouring of support for the young women and families we serve helps them feel seen and shows them how much their community truly cares about them.

A couple of important things to note:

If you registered for the Honorary Committee, your registration is included. If you do not plan to use your tickets, please let me know as soon as possible.

Sponsors: Each of your sponsorships came with tickets, depending on your level. Reach out to me directly if you have questions, and please let me know if you will not be using all of your tickets.

If you'd like to be added to our waitlist, you can email [email protected]; We will do our best to accommodate interested parties on a first-come first-served basis if registered people do not plan to use their tickets.

There are no physical tickets to this event. Only registered guests will be admitted and will check-in upon arrival on September 23. All registered attendees will receive an email from me one week before the event with everything you need to "know before you go", so please keep an eye out.

Please know that if you missed this opportunity, you can always reach out directly to arrange for a tour to learn more about our mission or to make a contribution.

Thank you for your support of young women's mental health.

We're just over here giving new meaning to the "dog days of summer." ☀🐾😉

Our students have been working hard on their academics and career exploration during our Extended School Year, but it's always worth it to take a break for some dog pets.💜

On summer Wednesdays, our whole campus gathers for a delicious outdoor lunch under our pavilion, thanks to our awesome Chefs Dave and Robin. It's a great time for us to connect with each other...and of course, catch up with some super cute staff pups, too!

Too sweet not to share. 🐶

🛠It is always a pleasure to celebrate the success of other programs serving young women in our community. Today, we stood beside our friends at the Northeast Construction Trades Workforce Coalition, Inc. to take a look at their unique and exciting summer camp for middle school girls, who are interested in hands-on opportunities to build, create and explore opportunities in construction. Congratulations to Matt Whitbeck of Whitbeck Construction, Doug Ford, Pam Stott and all who make this incredible and innovative program possible. We look forward to seeing these talented young ladies "build" bright futures! ✨
