FUND-RAISING

Tuition alone does not cover the cost of educating students and the cost of providing all of the other services.

The most important sources of additional revenues for the school are the annual fund-raising activities and private donations.

These activities take significant time and effort on the part of the volunteers and staff.  All parents and students are required to participate and support all fund-raising activities.
