The first class of Cary Academy gathers on the Quad – August 1997
Celebrating 30 years, shaping what’s possible.
For 30 years, Cary Academy has been a place where students discover, innovate, collaborate, and excel. From the first 244 Chargers who gathered on the Quad to the generations of students who have followed, this community has always believed in what is possible when we invest in the lives of our students.
As we celebrate our 30th anniversary and look toward the next 30 years, we invite our entire Cary Academy community to come together for 30 Days of Giving.
Throughout November, every gift to Cary Academy’s Annual Fund will help provide the experiences, opportunities, and resources that make a Cary Academy education possible for every student.
EVERY GIFT MATCHED 1 : 1 – Up to $500,000
Thanks to a generous matching commitment from current and past Board of Directors and PTAA leaders, every dollar given during 30 Days of Giving will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $500,000.
Every gift brings us closer.
Whether you are a current parent, grandparent, alum, parent of alumni or employee, your participation matters. Together, we can make this 30th anniversary year a moment that not only celebrates where Cary Academy has been but helps shape where it is going.

MAKING ACCESS POSSIBLE FOR EVERY CHARGER
One of the most important ways Cary Academy is imagining its future is through the Charger Promise.
Launched in 2025, the Charger Promise represents a bold commitment to access:
Cary Academy is committed to fully supporting families with household incomes of $100,000 or less, with significant, scaled financial aid extending beyond that threshold.
But access means more than tuition.
MAKE A PACT
As part of Cary Academy’s 30th anniversary, families, alumni, and friends are being invited to make a PACT — Promising Accessibility for Chargers Today.
A PACT is a $30,000 commitment over two years to provide expendable financial-aid support while the permanent endowment grows.
This is how a community makes a promise possible.
And ultimately, permanent.
