Enjoy the break to rest, recover and reset. We are excited to see your scholar on January 8, 2025.

"There is virtue in work and there is virtue in rest. Use both and overlook neither." - Alan Cohen

There is only a little over a week left to donate towards our 2024 Year-End Appeal. Did you know that Independent School Districts (ISDs) and public charter schools have very different funding sources?

ISDs receive a majority of their funding from local property taxes, with the rest coming from state sources. While public charter schools receive 100% of their funding from state sources. Unlike ISDs, they have no authority to levy taxes and receive no local tax funds. Instead, supplemental funds come from donations to the school.

Support our Year-End Appeal today to help bridge the gap for the funds we miss out on from local property taxes!
