Beacon Day School’s tuition does not cover the full cost of the education the School provides. The Annual Fund is a fundraising program created to alleviate the School’s dependence on tuition and helps to moderate tuition increases. Every year, each member of the community is asked to make an Annual Fund gift to support the day-to-day operations of the School.

The Annual Fund consists of several initiatives that support the School’s current-year programs and involves every segment of the Beacon community:

• Parents are encouraged to make Beacon Day School a priority in their philanthropic giving by participating at a personally significant level in the Annual Fund each year. For more information about the importance of these funds to the school please see the Annual Fund FAQs.
• Alumni and Parents of Alumni stay connected to the School and provide generous support, recognizing the power of a Beacon education.
• Grandparents support Beacon by visiting campus each year on Grandparents/Grandfriends Day and contributing to the Annual Fund.
• Faculty and Staff participation in the Annual Fund has been 98% -100% each year!
