HOW CAN I HELP?
"How can I help?" is a question that I am often asked. Several families have reached out over the course of the past two years asking how they can help the school financially. They have been prompted to ask this due to the fact that since the expansion of the Indiana Choice Scholarship program the amount they are paying in tuition has greatly decreased.
Our school is blessed to be in a financial position where our families are not overburdened with fundraisers. The fundraisers we do have go to daily operations and to offset the cost of tuition. The school leadership made the conscience effort many years ago to be intentional about what fundraisers we have, and to eliminate the students selling anything. The fundraisers that we kept were the Walk-A-Thon (fun for all ages) and the Saturday Knight Live event (fun for the adults)! Your generous donations helped us raise over $17,000 this year!
Planning is well underway for Saturday Knight Live which we will host at Hubers on Saturday, February 10, 2024. We encourage all of our families to mark the calendar and secure your babysitter ASAP. (The good ones get booked quickly for that night!) The theme this year is a decades theme. 100% Poly will be providing the music from the 70s, 80s, and today. So come join us at SATURDAY KNIGHT LIVE:THE ERAS EVENT. (Sorry T Swift. We couldn't resist.)
