Donations
To cover our costs while keeping tuition accessible for everybody we rely on grants and fundraising. We welcome any contribution you can make, and please know that your donation is tax deductible.

The success of our school is largely reliant on parents being actively involved; therefore, we ask each family to provide two hours of volunteer work per school year. Volunteer opportunities include setting up, assisting our staff, or cleaning after our events. Volunteer opportunities are only open to parents of children enrolled in our school.
