As the class of 2018 heads into their final year at Crofton House, Head Girl Ashley Phord-Toy '18 had the opportunity to share the meaning of their grad name.
The Inspiration of “Triple O”
Good Morning Dr. Dawson, Members of the Platform Party, Students, Teachers, Special Guests, and of course, the Graduating Class of 2018. Today’s assembly marks a very special day in Crofton House School’s history. Not only does it mark the start of another school year, but most importantly, it marks the start of the greatest grad class in Crofton House history: Grad Triple O!
When thinking about the name Grad Triple O, many are often curious to know why our grad class has decided to name ourselves something so similar to the fast food chain “Triple O’s.” Now, there are a few reasons. First, nearly all of us were born in the year 2000. And we thought that we should take advantage of this special fact considering it’s going to be another thousand years until any grad class can make another great pun about triple o’s.

Crofton House School alumnae have a longstanding tradition of giving back to strengthen communities. It has been 10 years since the School has approached the alumnae requesting financial support in support of excellence in girls’ education. In that time the campus has been renovated and rebuilt to meet the needs of girl’s education in the 21st century and beyond.
The School is now launching an Annual Fund in support of the new Strategic Bursary Program. This program works to remove financial barriers to ensure that extraordinary girls applying to grade 8 can have access to the exciting possibilities of a Crofton House education.
We hope that when you receive the new Annual Fund that you will consider making a gift that will help give girls an extraordinary future.
