Park Tudor Annual Fund 2024-25

About
The Park Tudor Annual Fund supports the school’s operating needs and helps to provide a balanced budget. Each year, the entire Park Tudor community is invited to make tax-deductible gifts and continue the school’s legacy of philanthropy. These gifts go to work immediately to support programs in academics, the arts, libraries, technology, faculty and staff benefits, and professional development.
Gifts to the Annual Fund enable the school to:
Provide an extraordinary range of opportunities
We are firmly committed to supporting the academics, the arts and athletics, as well as the numerous opportunities that exist only at Park Tudor. Whether it is creating opportunities for students to perform on stage or purchasing sport and wellness education equipment, Annual Fund gifts help all our students gain access to experiences that shape them to become balanced, confident and resourceful life-long learners.
Support exceptional educators in their professional development
Park Tudor teachers continuously seek their own growth and development. Our teachers engage in the national conversation about curricula and educational theory, a stance that defines greatness in the classroom.
Maintain small class sizes and provide critical support for all learners
Park Tudor has a long history of supporting all students and understanding each of them as learners. This individual attention requires a significant investment in time and staffing.
Close the gap
What the school charges in tuition and the actual cost of running the school results in a significant gap of several thousand dollars per student. Coupled with endowment income, the Annual Fund is essential in reducing the cost of a Park Tudor education. The Annual Fund also helps to fund the nearly $4.6 million in financial aid provided every year to our families.
