Annual giving is another action we can take to nurture our school. The
financial reality is that tuition typically covers about 90% of the
cost of providing this wonderful education. Donations, grants, and
fundraising are all needed to bridge this gap. These funds help us pay
for important things such as specialty classes, faculty development,
tuition assistance for families in need, and the beautiful equipment
that graces our classrooms.
Our goal is to have 100%
participation by the school community. As a school family, your
participation at any level is a gesture of support for the school. We
are applying for several grants, and foundations are more receptive to
awarding grants when a large percentage of school families participate
in annual giving campaigns. Therefore, any donation -- no matter the
amount -- makes a statement of support and helps us qualify for grants.
