You may be wondering — What do gifts to Power Up Peddie make possible?
Gifts to Power Up Peddie support The Peddie Fund, Peddie’s top philanthropic priority. The Peddie Fund is where urgency meets opportunity—the school's most direct and immediate way to impact every student, every day. As Peddie's annual giving campaign, it provides opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach - opportunities that directly shape the student experience, including classroom innovation, professional development, diversity and inclusion initiatives and campus improvements.
The Peddie Fund supports every part of life at Peddie, including:
- Academic excellence and opportunities for students to learn, discover and grow
- A strong boarding experience that fosters friendship, connection and community
- Athletics that build character and resilience
- Exceptional educators who teach, mentor and help students reach their potential
How did the Peddie and Blair Rivalry Begin?
The Peddie-Blair football rivalry is the oldest in New Jersey, dating back to 1903. Each November, the schools compete for the Kelley-Potter Cup, named for Blair’s former Head of School James Kelley and Peddie’s former Head of School Edward Potter, which became the symbol of victory in 1989.
Kelley-Potter Cup Tally
To date, the Falcons have been victorious in the Kelley-Potter Cup Challenge a total of 22 times; the Buccaneers have notched 8 wins and there have been 6 ties.
