Oak Grove Montessori School, like all independent schools, relies on fund raising and fund raising events to help off- set the difference between tuition and the cost of maintaining the quality of our school and our programs. Tuition at Oak Grove covers 70% of the cost of a child\u2019s education . The school must make up the difference by depending on the generous giving of friends, alumni, families current and past, and grandparents. It is these generous gifts that enable us to keep our tuition lower and still meet the needs of our operating budget.<\/p>\n

The OGMS\u2019s Annual Fund is the base of the school\u2019s yearly giving programs. As a non-profit school, OGMS relies on the unrestricted dollars to support our annual needed budget. The Annual Fund accounts for 20% of our needed operating budget.<\/p>\n
It is the Annual Fund that jump starts our giving each year. We greatly depend on the generosity of our current families, grandparents, past parents, friends and area businesses to support our Annual Fund helping us to maintain our high quality programming and to ensure the longevity of our school.<\/p>\n

Contributions to Oak Grove may be made in a variety of ways, some of which provide tax advantages to the donor.<\/p>\n
The easiest and most expedient way is to make a contribution is a cash gift. However, some donors may wish to contribute an item for a specific purpose. These gifts-in-kind are as diverse as the interests of our friends and have included trees, benches, computers and software, outside play area materials. The school is happy to accept gifts-in-kind such as these, provided there is appropriate need.<\/p>\n
