THE DOORS OPEN AT SABOT AT STONY POINT

School’s long-anticipated campus expansion project will have its ceremonial ribbon-cutting this week


RICHMOND, VA—Sabot at Stony Point’s state-of-the-art, 16,000-square-foot classroom building now has its official name. In a ribbon-cutting ceremony to take place Friday, March 31, at 6:30 p.m., the name will be unveiled with accompanying remarks from Shannon Montague, Head of School. Younger students at the school suggested Sabot’s graduating class should do the honorary cutting and indeed members of the 8th grade will officially welcome guests inside the newly-occupied learning spaces. A major milestone in the life of the school, the completion of the building allows for continued growth and campus expansion while preserving the aesthetic qualities of the historic Larus estate.
