Dear Williamsburg Parents,

Friedrich Nietzsche once said, "He who has a WHY to live for can overcome any HOW."

Since I began mentoring at Williamsburg Academy (WA) in 2018, this truth has resonated deeply with me. The meaning and purpose I find in mentoring my Leadership classes have given me the courage and motivation to face challenges, grow personally, and strive to be my best—for my students, my family, and myself.

I love the gift of mentoring students. They give me hope in humanity and teach me far more than I feel I teach them. Spending 50 minutes in a classroom with intentional, brave, and curious students at Williamsburg is a joy, and I continually marvel that such a job even exists.

This month, I want to celebrate that joy with all of you. Despite the negativity and turmoil we often see in the world, there is so much to appreciate within our Williamsburg community—our students, parents, mentors, and staff.

This week, I discussed the joy of service with my Social Leadership students, who are in the midst of meaningful service projects. One recurring theme stood out: service is about relationships—the relationships with those we serve, those we serve alongside, and even the relationship we build with ourselves. Relationships matter!

Our school is not just about academic success; it’s about life success. I am so proud of our students, the character they are building, and the impact they are making. Their focus on what truly matters is inspiring, and it’s one of the many reasons Williamsburg is such a special place to be.

Thank you for being a part of our community.

Warmly,

Ross Gilbert

Headmaster, Williamsburg Academy

Dear Williamsburg Parents,

As we approach midterm exams at Williamsburg Academy, this can be a stressful time for students as they complete assignments and prepare for tests. As parents, you may also feel this pressure while supporting your student.

To help your student prepare for the upcoming midterm assignment deadlines, I’d like to offer a few key steps:

1. Check grades in the Canvas Gradebook to identify any missing assignments or low scores. For detailed instructions on how to review grades, watch our Reviewing Grades video on our On-Demand Parent Orientation web page.
2. Read mentor feedback on assignments in the Canvas Gradebook.
3. Reach out for support by scheduling an appointment during your student’s mentor’s office hours (usually listed on the Canvas course homepage).

 

Encouraging your student to review their work and communicate with their mentor is one of the best ways to prepare for midterms. Our mentors are eager to support students, and self-advocacy is an important part of their success.

As you take some time off for Spring Break, I encourage you to explore the in-person 2025 USA Teen Retreat happening in June. This gathering gives students a valuable opportunity to connect with peers and enrich their academic experience. Details are listed below, and I’m happy to answer any questions.

I hope you and your student enjoy a refreshing Spring Break and the beauty of the season wherever you may be!

Warmly,

Ross Gilbert

Headmaster, Williamsburg Academy

Dear Williamsburg Parents,

It has been a pleasure meeting with many of you during this week's Parent Mentor Conferences. I’ve been especially impressed by students who are taking the lead—self-assessing their progress and asking thoughtful questions about how they can improve. It’s inspiring to see them, especially those new to Williamsburg, actively self-advocating and taking ownership of their education.

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on our school’s beginnings. Since Williamsburg was founded in 2008, its vision has been carried forward by incredible mentors, staff, parents, and students. Together, we’ve shaped the unique “Burger Culture” we have today—built on our core mission of preparing students for meaningful lives as principled leaders. A key part of this mission is helping students connect with our student motto: Becoming Who We Are. We believe every student possesses both greatness and goodness, and like Socrates, we aim to “draw out what is already within them” through interactive classrooms, engaging assignments, and a supportive student culture.

As parents, you play an essential role in this journey. No one knows your student better, no one loves them more, and no one has a greater influence on their growth. To support you, we encourage you to revisit our WA Parent-Student Handbook, especially the Parent Commitments (p. 15) and Parent Resources (p. 39) sections. These sections offer valuable insights for guiding your student’s success at Williamsburg.

Thank you for being part of our community and for partnering with us in your child’s education. We’re grateful for you!

Warmly,

Ross Gilbert 

Headmaster, Williamsburg Academy

For many students, though, the focus is still on assignments, final exams, and the stress of finishing the semester strong. To support them, mentors sent emails this week outlining steps your student can take to finish well and maximize their hard work this semester.

Parents, I encourage you to meet with your student, review their progress, and help them create a solid plan to finish up the semester strong. Look for missing assignments, grades of 1/100 (indicating they couldn’t be graded and require resubmission), and mentor comments on assignments that have been graded lower than usual. Your support can make all the difference!

Wishing you a happy holiday season! Your students have been outstanding, and we are grateful to be part of their journey of growth and discovery.

Warmly,

Ross Gilbert

Headmaster, Williamsburg Academy

Today, I’m excited to introduce Heather Evans, our Academic Counselor and a valued member of the Williamsburg Academy team. Since joining us at the beginning of the school year, Heather has already made a positive impact on both parents and students.

As a licensed school counselor, Heather provides essential social-emotional support, guidance on graduation requirements, and post-secondary planning. She is passionate about helping students identify their strengths and passions, guiding them toward courses and career pathways that align with their long-term goals.

At Williamsburg, Heather's primary focus is to collaborate with families to support both students who are struggling and those who are excelling and looking for new challenges. She can assist with college and career pathways, scholarships, recommendation letters, and admissions essays. Additionally, Heather offers short-term counseling, crisis support, and helps families find appropriate local resources.

If you think a meeting with Heather would be beneficial for you and your student, please email the Academic Counseling department today.

Dear Williamsburg parents,

As we near the midpoint of the semester, I want to commend you and your students for their hard work and dedication over the past seven weeks. Many of you are experiencing online schooling for the first time this semester, and I’ve been truly impressed by how your students have taken ownership of their education. When students are encouraged to take responsibility for their learning and focus on “how to think” rather than “what to think,” they truly thrive.

We are dedicated to supporting you in your important role of helping your student both academically and personally. One way we do this is by offering valuable opportunities for student engagement and connection. Our Student Body Leadership team hosts engaging online events every Thursday at 3:00 PM MT. Your student can find details and links on the announcements page in Homeroom.

Again, Thank you for all you do to strengthen and build your students. We are so happy to be on this educational journey with you!!

Warmly,

Ross Gilbert

Headmaster, Williamsburg Academy

Dear families,

I hope the first three weeks of classes have been rewarding and exciting! If your student is new to Williamsburg and finding the transition to online schooling overwhelming, remember that our Mentors are here to support them. Our goal is to ensure that both you and your student receive the best educational experience possible.

This week, I’d like to share some valuable insights from a Williamsburg alumnus who graduated just this last year. His reflections offer a glimpse into what students can expect for their future here at Williamsburg:

"Recently, I’ve had to modify my perspective on the ‘why’ behind education. I've come to realize that learning isn't just about preparing for a steady career; it's also about acquiring the skills needed to impact others' lives positively. This shift in understanding has taught me that education is not only about becoming a productive individual but also about leading selflessly and inspiring positive change in those around me.

With this new perspective, I've also realized that academic growth extends beyond just personal achievements. By pushing myself academically and overcoming my perceived limitations, I’ve gained the tools to better serve and support others. While the confidence and personal growth I gain from academic success is fulfilling, the true value lies in using my education to make a positive impact on the lives of others.”

As I read about this student's new perspective, I feel privileged to be a part of our students’ educational journeys. Seeing this growth is why I, and many of my colleagues, love what we do. We aim to help your students feel the fulfillment of taking personal responsibility for their education and reaping the rewards of their choices.

Warmly,

Ross Gilbert

Headmaster, Williamsburg Academy

Dear families,

I would like to extend a warm welcome to all our returning and new parents and students at Williamsburg Academy! Over the summer, we have been busy hiring new mentors, updating and improving existing courses, and introducing new courses. All of these efforts are aimed at preparing for an exceptional educational experience in the 2024-25 academic year.

For those new to Williamsburg Academy, I would like to take a little space in this message to introduce myself: I was born and spent most of my life in Australia. In 2016, my family of seven decided to embark on an adventure to explore various countries and cultures, seeking a different educational experience. Fortunately, in 2017, Williamsburg Academy found me on the top of Mt Vesuvius, Italy, when I had a chance to meet with two Williamsburg mentors and their families.That day, I was introduced to an entirely new way of thinking about education.

This chance meeting transformed my life. Although my family has continued to live in various countries, including the United Kingdom, where we currently reside, I began working as a Mentor with Williamsburg Academy in 2018. Throughout this period, my family and I have embraced Williamsburg's culture and recognized the positive impact its community has had on our lives.

In addition to serving as the Headmaster of Williamsburg Academy, I am fortunate to mentor Personal and Social Leadership classes. This year, I will also start mentoring Japanese in our live language classes. I am honored to work with our dedicated student leaders who serve the student body throughout the year. Being in the classroom with students is deeply meaningful, and their enthusiasm energizes me and helps me grow as a person. I am truly grateful for the journey that brought me from across the world to this incredible environment of learning and growth.

As you prepare your student for the upcoming year, please remember that each mentor is here to help and support you. You can find essential information and training on our Parent Resource Center web page, which you can access anytime. If you have any questions, feel free to contact our customer support team at 800-200-6869.

Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us. I hope this will be another brilliant year for us all!

Warmly,

Ross Gilbert

Headmaster, Williamsburg Academy

Dear Williamsburg Academy Families,

As we approach the final week of this semester, I would like to express my gratitude to all the parents and students of Williamsburg Academy. It has been a fantastic year for our mentors, staff, and especially for myself.

It has and continues to be an honor to be a part of this educational journey with you. I speak for all mentors when I say that there is nothing more rewarding than seeing your students' growth and success. Preparing principled leaders for this world is one of our missions, and we sincerely hope we have achieved that this year.

In the final leadership classes that I taught this week, I asked students, "How have you changed as a result of your learning this year?" I invite us all to ask ourselves the same question and reflect on the priviledge it is to be a part of such a wonderful educational community.

Please enjoy a wonderful summer, and good luck to your students with their final exams and assignments.

Warmly, 
Ross Gilbert
