The Independent School<br />
FUNDRAISING MODEL<br />
Tuition, of course, plays the largest role in an independent school’s funding structure;<br />
however, rarely does tuition cover the full cost of educating a student. At All Saints<br />
Academy, tuition covers 95% of the cost per student each year. A significant percentage<br />
of our operating budget, almost 80% annually, is spent on retaining and supporting the<br />
highest quality faculty and staff, leaving little flexibility in expenses. Our Board of Trustees<br />
and Head of School are committed to minimizing tuition increases while continuing to<br />
offer every student an excellent education. Because <strong>ASA</strong>, like most independent schools,<br />
operates as a 501(c)(3) organization, charitable giving offers a tax-deductible way for<br />
community members to invest in our school’s success.<br />
