Fall Fundraiser
Our Fall Fundraiser is a great way for parents to connect with our parent and faculty community. It is typically hosted at our school in October as a Trivia Night or game night. We love designing it around a theme and love for parent involvement. We offer various contests for best dressed and themed table decorations.

Dragon Giving Days
Dragon Giving Days is celebrated in November. It serves as a spirit and fundraising week for our school to showcase what makes us Different. Students and faculty dress up in special themes such as twin-day, crazy socks, and TSMSOC spirit day. We host an all-school assembly and sometimes a dance party. Parents and other supporter pledge money to help our fundraising efforts throughout the week.

Dragon Gala
The Annual Dragon Gala is hosted at the end of January or beginning of February each year. We ask for parent volunteers to help us coordinate this event. Our parents and faculty enjoy participating in this up-scale event hosted off-site as a wonderful fundraiser and community builder. We feature a silent and live auction with one-of-a-kind experiences and gifts.

Annual Giving
Annual giving is an essential investment in our school and the future of your children. Annual giving is a form of necessary financial support. It is supplemental revenue used to cover expenses. It makes up the gap between tuition income and expenses. Tuition funds cover only 75% of the school’s target budget. The funds are used for professional development programs, book fees, computers, classroom materials, building renovations, scholarships, field trips, Smart Boards, playground enhancements, new kiln, new van, science lab enhancements and a learning consultant. One hundred percent family participation is essential for facilitating a state-of-the-art progressive educational program. Parents, faculty, Board of Trustees, friends, grandparents and alumni contribute to the annual giving fund.

Gifts can be made in the form of cash, credit cards, stocks, corporate gift contributions, matching fund programs, gifts from foundations, planned giving, memorials and tributes. All contributions are tax deductible. Payment(s) can be made monthly, quarterly or in full by check, cash, credit card, stock/securities or an electronic funds transfer. Monthly installment plans may be set up with Lori Timmons in the Business Office: [email protected]

Our primary goal is 100% participation by families, faculty and Board. For the 2017-2018 school year our budget requirement is $200,000.

Payment must be made by May 31, 2018

Only you can decide the contribution level that is appropriate for you and your family to donate. No amount is too small. If you are able please consider a contribution at the Dragon Level of $1,000 or more!
