Help Us Raise $1 Million to Save Our School

The Center School has long been a place where children thrive, creativity flourishes, and community matters. Today, we face our greatest financial challenge yet.

To stabilize the school for the next 1–2 years and give us time to address building debt, we must raise $1 million this school year. Without this support, the future of the school we love is at risk.

Why We Need Your Help

• Our mortgage and operational deficits have grown significantly, compounded by unexpected expenses.

• Enrollment has declined, and charitable giving has not kept pace with rising costs.

• Strategic changes are underway to strengthen the school’s financial health—but we need time and support to succeed.

How You Can Help

• Donate: Every contribution — big or small — makes a difference (really!). Your gift helps keep classrooms open, teachers supported, and the spirit of Center School alive. 

• Spread the Word: Tell people why you love this place. Share your stories, send our campaign to friends and family, and help us reach a wider circle.

• Get Involved: Volunteer your time and talents to support fundraising or help at events.

There’s a role for everyone — and your energy helps keep the momentum going!

Let’s Do This, Together. Center School has always been powered by community. With your help, we can weather this challenge — and come out stronger.
