Donating to Roots Community School
Join The Movement
All independent, non-public schools rely on generous annual donations in order to provide impactful, individualized education to students.
Donating to Roots Community School supports the meaningful educational experiences Roots provides and allows us to nurture humble, tenacious learners. By donating to Roots, you allow our students to continue to have learning experiences that are experiential, individualized, and research-based.
We strive to keep tuition as low as possible to reduce the financial burden on families seeking this unique educational opportunity for their children. Low tuition rates leave us with a difficult decision – reduce programs or raise funds.
With your generous gift, we can continue providing the exceptional programs and education that Roots is known for.
You are truly improving lives with your donations – we wholeheartedly appreciate your support.
