Why Give?
Combining challenging academics with creative learning requires a continuous investment in excellent academic programs, inspired teachers, and a warm and nurturing campus. Offering our families these benefits, which we consider to be the cornerstones of the Schoolhouse education, takes time, talent, and money.
As with all independent schools, our Board of Trustees sets tuition below the true cost of educating each student to remain broadly accessible to our community. Tuition at Hollywood Schoolhouse covers around 80 percent of what it takes to educate each child. To make up the difference, tax-deductible gifts to the Schoolhouse Fund help to balance the budget and moderate tuition increases while enabling the Schoolhouse to attract the best faculty and students for our community.
Because of this, we ask each family to participate in giving to the Schoolhouse at a level that is meaningful to them. Participation – at any level – enhances our sense of community and ensures our school’s success each year while paving the way for long-term growth.
