The people, programs and facilities that make Calvary Christian School an exceptional education would not be possible without the commitment and financial support of the entire Calvary community.
The Calvary Annual Fund is an essential component of the financial health of the school. It is a part of our school’s formal financial strategy and it is a commitment made when enrolling children at Calvary Christian School. The Annual Fund allows families to make a tax-deductible contribution to their child’s education, in essence making a portion of tuition tax-deductible.
We are thankful for the generous gifts from Calvary families for the Annual Fund! Our Annual Fund goal for the 2022/23 school year is $1,000,000. We are asking for 100% of participation from our parents, staff, faculty, and our Board of Trustees. This “tuition gap” translates to approximately $3,500 per student in TK-8th grade and $1,750 per child in Preschool 3 & Preschool 4. While we recognize that individual giving will depend on each family’s financial situation, we ask for
all members of our community to participate at a meaningful level. Meeting our Annual Fund goal requires that we receive multiple gifts in the $10,000 to $30,000 range. As always, Annual Fund giving levels at Calvary Christian School are confidential and anonymous.
