Support  Episcopal Day School

Giving that makes every day extraordinary

The EDS Annual Fund

At Episcopal Day School, tuition covers a lot, but not everything. The Annual Fund helps close the gap between tuition and the full cost of an EDS education. It supports the people, programs, and possibilities that make this school so special.

When you give to the Annual Fund, you're investing directly in:

Better Learning Every Day

Funds improve academics, programs, and the daily student experience.

Financial aid helps qualified students attend EDS who otherwise couldn't.

THE 2025/26 ANNUAL FUND GOAL=$66,000

One dollar for every year since EDS was founded.

Why Give?

Families often ask, "Why should I give if I already pay tuition?" The answer is simple. Tuition covers a portion of the EDS experience. The Annual Fund helps cover the rest, ensuring that students and teachers have what they need to thrive.

Every gift matters. Whether you are a parent, grandparent, alum, or friend of the school, your generosity helps us keep delivering an education that is joyful, engaging, and rooted in our mission.
