Alison Carpenter Bueschen '85

As an FRA Alumnus, past staff member and parent of an FRA Alumnus, I have experienced FRA at many different levels.  While working at FRA, I realized that the faculty and staff not only cared about their currents students, but that they never stopped caring about their past students.  Long after graduation, teachers and administrators continued to celebrate the successes of their former students and offer support to them in difficult times.  I saw that the FRA family never stopped giving back and that led to my desire to give back to FRA in return.  I decided to make a commitment now through planned giving and hope that other parents and alumni will join me in supporting this school that is so worthy of our support. 

I truly believe that FRA plays an important role in the Nashville community.  FRA is able to combine a strong educational experience with a caring, compassionate, student-centered atmosphere that sets it apart from other options in town.  I believe that this leads to the family feel at FRA and I will always be proud to call myself part of the FRA family.
