Description

We are a small, multi-age elementary and middle school that strives to teach students valuable skills that will translate to whatever future they pursue.
Our tuition is indexed against household income, in order to provide an affordable cost for any family that attends, and allows us to have more than 60% of our population from mid- to low-income households. As such, we hold semi-annual fundraisers to help offset costs and allow us to continue having this equitable model. We are holding a 3-week online auction, with big ticket items that will interest families and friends beyond our school community, in an effort to create excitement and high value bids. The more money we are able to raise, the more students we are able to continue subsisizing at a low tuition rate. 

While our auction begins on May 9, it continues for several weeks, with donations being added every few days in an effort to encourage bidders to keep checking the site and making new bids. So we are able to accept donations that require more processing time beyond our start date.

As a registered nonprofit charity, we. can provide a tax receipt for your donation.
