Giving at ACS
A deep tradition of volunteerism and philanthropy is essential at ACS. As an independent school and a not-for-profit organization, ACS relies on the generosity of the entire community to support and elevate the School.
We are grateful for the gifts of time, talent, and financial contributions from our community of parents, alumni, grandparents, corporate partners and friends. Giving to ACS ensures we can continue to deliver an innovative and flexible curriculum, invest in our faculty, enhance classrooms and learning spaces, and seize opportunities for excellence as they arise. To unlock ACS’ full potential as a school, we are seeking to increase charitable contributions from parents, alumni and corporate friends.
Making a gift supports opportunities for excellence beyond what tuition alone can provide. Each year, parents, faculty, staff, alumni, grandparents and other partners support ACS because they believe in the mission, vision and values of our school and the impact that these contributions will have on student success.
No gift is too large or too small. Please join us in supporting the school’s mission and consider a gift today. We strive for 100% participation from the ACS community.
