New Changes Come to Warrior Words

By: Tiffany Whitaker, Director of Advancement, FBA Alumni Class of 1999

Welcome back, Warriors! As we gear up for a new school year, we're excited to connect with you and kick things off with some exciting changes for Warrior Words. You might notice a new logo and look, but that's not all that's changing! Our hope is to simplify the messaging for our busy parents, and one of the ways we're doing that is by giving just a snippet from the Weekly Spotlight writer, with a click-through to see the full message. Just like this!

Here's what's staying the same: Warrior Words will still land in your inbox on Sunday afternoons, and it will still be the one email each week you won't want to skip.

Here's what's new:

The Educational Journey

At the top of each issue, you'll find The Educational Journey (formerly our Weekly Spotlight), featuring a short excerpt from a message written by a member of the Warrior community. These messages are rich with insight into what makes FBA special, and we hope you'll take a few minutes each week to read them in full.

New and Notable

Next, you'll see New and Notable, which includes new updates, registrations and event details, hot off the press. Our goal for this section is exactly what it sounds like: new information only. Rather than repeating the same announcements week after week with a few new items sprinkled in, we'll keep this section focused so it's easy to scan and nothing important gets buried.

Warrior Central

Every issue will link to Warrior Central, found on the Parent Portal. Think of it as a digital bulletin board, the one place to go for all relevant, up-to-date information, available any time you need it.

We're excited about this new format and grateful for the feedback that helped us build it. As always, thank you for being part of our Warrior community.
