There are so many ways you can help support the mission of the Woodland Hill Montessori School Fund. Because tuition covers only part of the cost of running the school we must rely on the generosity of the community to help sustain our rich learning environment.
Many parents like to know in advance what fundraisers you may be asked to participate in during the upcoming school year. We wanted to make you aware of the many and varied opportunities and appeals that you may be presented with. Some of these benefit the school, some benefit the students (WHMS Fund), some benefit the parent (pizza lunch), and some benefit the community.
These opportunities are coordinated by the school, by the Friends of WHMS, and by the students. Some of these programs and fundraisers are major giving opportunities, and some are as simple as bringing in Hannaford School Dollars, but all add up to make a big difference for our students. Please review the list below, and consider how your family may be able to participate.
APPEALS – Donate to The WHMS Fund now!
Because tuition covers only part of the cost of running the school, we must rely on the generosity of the community to help sustain our rich learning environment. WHMS Fund donations make a difference and benefit every WHMS student. Every gift in every amount helps to ensure the legacy of our school. The WHMS Fund provides essential unrestricted funds in support of the school’s general operations.
