Cornerstone Fund

Cornerstone’s primary vehicles for supporting our mission are tuition dollars and fundraising. Tuition dollars only cover 93.3% of the school’s operating budget. Thus, annual support of the Cornerstone Fund bridges the gap between the total cost of operating the school and tuition revenue. The average gap per student amounts to $1168. The amount strictly needed from fundraising efforts equals $490 per student. Your support is critical to the school fulfilling our mission.

Gifts

Cornerstone Annual Fund contributions enhance the educational opportunities available to our students through enrichment programs such as Music, Art, Foreign Language and Physical Education. The Annual Fund helps fund salaries, purchase equipment for the school, provide additional student programs, and assists in keeping yearly tuition fees low.

Giving Levels

Gifts to the Cornerstone Annual Fund are an investment in the future leaders of tomorrow. Annually, Cornerstone receives gifts from parents, grandparents, relatives, alumni, faculty and staff, corporations and board members. The Annual Fund goal is always 100% participation. Every gift, no matter how large or how small, makes a difference. Historically, we have an extremely high rate of participation (average nearly 100% over the last five years). Full participation demonstrates a strong indication that our community is pleased with Cornerstone.

As part of this year’s comprehensive Annual Fund Drive, we are pleased to inform you that we have expanded the Annual Fund contribution levels to encourage everyone from Cornerstone to participate. Further, with additional contribution levels, we will expand our possible contributors to include friends, local businesses, and local restaurants.

HOPE Circle $10,000 +	Leadership Circle $1,000 - $2,499
Cornerstone Society $5,000 - $9,999	Cougar Club $500 - $999
Headmaster's Circle $2,500 - $4,999	Supporter $1 - $499

"Cornerstone checks all the boxes for our family. The staff provides a safe and nurturing environment for our child to learn and grow into her gifts, with a strong emphasis on leadership, independence and good moral character. Academically they provide the rigor and tools that challenge and build confidence. This has helped to foster our daughter’s innate curiosity and critical thinking and a love of learning. Cornerstone is more than a school, it is a community, and it has given our family so much more than we ever anticipated."
