Annual Fund 2024

Dr. Maria Montessori

We, who work for a single goal, are, as it were, the members of the same person. Those who come after us will attain further goals because there were those who believed and worked before them.
Austin Montessori School has just launched Annual Fund 2024, our fundraising campaign to support this year’s operating budget and foster a community of philanthropy that will launch our school into our future. As a non-profit organization, tuition and fees cover our basic operating costs and donations to the annual fund allow AMS to provide additional resources for our children and staff.

Please consider donating today whether you are a new or returning family, grandparent, past student, alumni family member, or a friend of Austin Montessori School.

This year, donors who make a gift of $1,000 or greater will be invited to a special breakfast reception with Grae Baker, Head of School, on December 13. Every gift gets us closer to reaching our $200,000 annual fund goal.

Together, we create this unique and special setting where children and adolescents can thrive and grow. Thank you for your support.
