At The Fulton School, we are dedicated to igniting a lifelong passion for learning, inspiring self-discovery, instilling civic leadership, and motivating each student to continually pursue excellence. We achieve these goals by employing the best teachers in the business, limiting class sizes, and offering a rich array of athletic and extracurricular activities to enhance classroom learning. All of these distinguishing elements have a cost associated with them, and we work diligently to stretch tuition dollars to maximize their impact.

However, like all independent schools, tuition and fees alone cover only around 70% of the actual cost of educating a Fulton student. Fulton’s Annual Fund exists to close this gap. We call upon the generous spirit of our local businesses, corporate sponsors, alumni, friends, grandparents, and parents to make a tax-deductible donation to help offset the actual cost of attendance at Fulton. We ask you to make a tax-deductible donation that is comfortable for you and your family.

The Annual Fund allows Fulton to retain our high quality teachers and staff, invest more into our curriculum, and thus provide a higher quality of education to our children. Nearly as important as the amount raised, is the participation of all parents. One hundred percent participation allows Fulton to apply for grants and receive other donations. Quite literally, 100% participation could mean hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to Fulton, thereby reducing the necessity to rely on tuition as the sole source of funding the school. Participation, at any financial level, demonstrates the strong commitment each of us has to The Fulton School’s mission.

In addition to making a cash donation, you may also considering donating a computer, classroom materials, athletic equipment, musical instruments, books for the library, or other useful items. Please contact Matt Burgy, Head of School, to discuss your donation.
