Honor a Shaker Teacher or Graduate
The Looking for a way to recognize a special Shaker teacher, staff member, or coach who has made a difference in your student’s life? Tell them “thank you” with a gift to the Shaker Schools Foundation in their name. It’s easy to make a gift online! You can select the amount and designate the fund of your choice. (The Annual Appeal serves the areas of greatest need.) The Foundation will let them know of the gift (but not of the amount).

It's the perfect way to pay it forward to future Shaker students!
