Giving to IDEAL

Like all non-profit independent schools, The IDEAL School relies on the generosity of families, friends, and foundations to meet expenses not covered by tuition income. But giving at IDEAL is about more than budgets and bottom lines – it is about supporting our mission of inclusion, our core values of diversity, acceptance, and excellence, and our incredible students.

A gift to The IDEAL School means you believe every child deserves access to a top-notch, independent school education, regardless of gender, family structure, learning style, race, religion, or socioeconomic background. Your gift means you want to break down stereotypes and prejudices, to change the perception of how a school can succeed. And it means you understand that inclusion and diversity lead to acceptance, that acceptance and academic rigor lead to excellence.

By giving to IDEAL, you ensure nearly 100 students will receive an individualized, differentiated education that allows them to reach their full potential. You will help bring meaningful technology into their classrooms, equipping students with skills they need to be successful in the 21st Century. You will support the professional development of their teachers, providing opportunities for staff to hone their craft. And you will preserve the socioeconomic diversity of their community, helping create a school that is truly reflective of the world in which they live.

There are several ways to give to IDEAL, including our Annual Fund, the Annual Gala, and our Open Door Scholarship Fund. Please explore this section of our website for more information, or make a gift online today by clicking here.

Thank you for supporting our mission and believing in our vision for The IDEAL School!
