Annual Fund

In addition to tuition income, Salado Montessori relies on contributions to the annual fund and other fundraising efforts in order to meet operating expenses and keep tuition at a competitive rate.  The annual fund provides a critical source of income that is necessary to enhance our programs and facilities, maintain steady growth, and help with forecasting as we plan for the future.  We strive for 100 percent participation from our parent community in the Annual Fund.  We ask for a yearly tax-deductible gift of $500 per family, and understand that some families may be able to contribute more and some will feel more comfortable giving less.  All gifts are greatly appreciated, no matter the amount.  You may choose to contribute in monthly installments with your tuition payments, or you can choose to give once yearly.
