Gateway Capital Campaign

Frederica Academy embarked on a $10 million capital campaign in 2022 in order to improve and strengthen the FA student experience. Since then, the school has raised more than $10.3 million for the Gateway Campaign from 163 donors (average size gift is more than $63,000). These three dozen small and large projects have allowed FA to accommodate the school’s explosive growth over the past five years. Since 2019, enrollment has increased nearly 43%. The largest investments are a new Upper School academic building, incremental classroom spaces for the Lower School and Middle School, and enlarged and improved dining facilities; athletics, fine arts programming, and multi-purpose, outdoor-gathering venues are also important investments provided by the campaign. Providing generations of students with a high quality educational experience is the surest way to solidify the brand of the school over time, and the momentum created by this campaign and the resulting school improvements is helping define this chapter of the school’s positive legacy.
