Why Give?


Giving to South Coast Montessori makes a difference.


Your support allows South Coast Montessori to continue to provide an exceptional Montessori education for our students.

Fundraising ensures that South Coast Montessori is able to meet its operating expenses. Like most independent schools, tuition and fees do not cover the total cost of a SCM education. Our Fundraising bridges that gap, a difference of approximately $2,500 per student each year.


We believe that hiring, training and retaining the best staff and teachers is the key to our success. 85% of our operating expenses are allocated to staff and teacher wages, salaries, benefits and professional development.


Additionally, fundraising allows us to embark upon capital and site improvements each year to provide the best learning facilities for your children. Improvements can include buildings, gardens, furnishings, Montessori materials and playground renovations.


All contributions, big or small, make certain that our outstanding education programs continue to strengthen for years to come. Your gift to South Coast Montessori is a gift to the future of our children and our community.


Below are a few of our specific needs that our fundraising efforts have helped us to meet.
