Canyon Crest Academy Foundation to unveil Legacy Wall honoring past donors on Oct. 25

The Canyon Crest Academy Foundation (CCAF) will unveil the CCA Foundation Legacy Wall, which honors the most generous donors, on Thursday, Oct. 25, from 3:30 - 5 p.m. at the CCA school campus. In addition to the donors, invited guests include San Diego city and school officials, the professional artist Dee McMillen, who guided students through the process of creating the art for the wall, as well as the parents of the students who created the art. The Foundation will also be formally dedicating the artwork to the Canyon Crest Academy.

“This is a great example of how we strike a great working balance between public and private entities,” said Marty Foltyn, CCA Foundation president. “The Foundation is a parent volunteer organization that is dedicated to empowering every student to realize his or her full potential through Foundation-funded programs and activities. Together with the San Dieguito High School district’s dedicated teachers and administrators, we have formed an excellent partnership that supports the expansive curriculum and enriching educational and athletic programs that is available to all CCA students.”

The event will be catered by students from the CCA NEST cafe, a program supported by the Foundation. Refreshments will be provided by Towne Bakery of Del Mar Highlands and the CCA Farmers’ Market. The Foundation’s partnership with the CCA Farmers’ Market (Thursday afternoons at CCA) enables the community to sample locally sourced produce and foster a fun and social environment for families.
