Giving of time, talent and financial support

Valley Montessori School has thrived with a history of successful fundraising and volunteerism. Past and current parents, alumni, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends have given generously of their time and financial resources to support the needs of the school. VMS relies on this ongoing philanthropic support to maintain the excellence of its education. As always, Valley Montessori School's mission is the basis for all of our fundraising efforts.

VMS has two main fundraising events each year: Our Annual Giving Campaign that kicks off in October, and the wonderfully entertaining Spring Spectacular - our Annual Auction - in March. Our 18th Annual Auction, the Spring Spectacular, is scheduled for March 31st 2012 at the Madden's Goal Line Productions - Save the Date! 

Year round, we rally support for our Tuition Assistance Fund - established by our Board of Directors in honor of Mary Ellen Kordas for her 33 years of service to the children and families of Valley Montessori School. For more information or to make a donation. please visit the MEK Tuition Assistance Fund page.

As at other schools, fundraising is viewed as a critical form of parent involvement. Gifts to VMS directly benefit our students and faculty, improve our facilities, and help us keep tuition lower than it would otherwise be. Everyone is invited to participate however they can - by contributing their talents, time, and resources to help us provide for the children. We are extremely grateful for the generosity of our community.
