For the fourth year in a row, Ravenscroft's student-led fundraising team for Crucial Catch has been recognized as the top fundraising school in the nation, exceeding their goal of $30,000 by more than $6,000, and once again winning the prestigious Pink Cleat Award.
Three Ravenscroft art students have been recognized for their submissions to the Fine Arts League of Cary Teen Show.
Six Middle School students took the global Pegasus Mythology Exam in March, with all winning awards for their performance.
Ravenscroft initiated the Visiting Artist Portfolios Series in 1996 to continue to promote excellence in the visual arts. Sponsored by the
Victor E. Bell, III ’74 Endowment Fund, the Portfolio Series invites visiting professional artists and educators from distinguished
colleges, universities, and the professional art world to Ravenscroft each year.
Artists are selected based on their expertise in a given medium as it relates to our art curriculum. In recent years, the Portfolio Series included painters, printmakers, architects, sculptors, and photographers from higher education programs at Dartmouth College, Swarthmore College, Tyler School of Art, Auburn University, Denison College, the University of Pennsylvania, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Drexel University, and local renowned artists.
