While tuition dollars cover most of the costs of running a high-quality independent school like ours, we always have unmet needs on campus that cannot be funded by tuition dollars alone. Like all independent, nonprofit schools, we look to fill this "gap" in our operating budget through charitable donations to our annual fund. We believe fundraising – as opposed to increased tuition – gives an opportunity for families with financial means to further support the overall growth of our School.

Dollars from our annual fund, which we call The Fund for GMS, are used to compete deferred maintenance or fund strategic enhancements for our School. For this year's Fund for GMS, we seek to raise $85,000 by June 30, 2025, in order to raise the roof – a new roof, that is, for our Lower School building. Help us meet our goal and and fully cover the cost of our new roof.
