GAP Funding and More Independent education -- with its benefits of an exceptional faculty, small class size and individualized attention -- is expensive, and tuition alone does not cover all of the costs. Like most other private schools, Golden Hills School relies upon our families, alumni and friends for volunteer and financial support. A variety of funding sources are sought annually to "bridge the gap" between operating expenses and tuition income – as well as to provide funds to achieve so many other goals and innovations necessary to maintain and improve our complete educational experience at GHS! Indeed, our needs are so much more than our GAP! Opportunities to Give There are three main opportunities for parents to give during the school year. The first is the Annual Giving Fund, which kicks of in late September with the theme this year of "partnership Giving." The second is the Walk-a-Thon, which takes place in the Fall and has always been a family favorite. Finally, the GHS Annual Auction is the spring fling that brings families together to bid on fabulous prizes as well as incredible projects made and donated by each grade at GHS. Please plan to support the school during these drives to cover the cost of your child’s current educational experience – and support improvements as we strive to develop further. Free Money We also have multiple ways for the school to receive big money that don’t cost you a thing!!!! We ask all parents to make an extra effort to maximize their use of Scrip, Tool bar, Box Tops, and the Magazine Drive – where a percentage of purchases that your family would make anyway are donated to GHS. Yes, it takes a little extra time to familiarize yourself with the options – but once it is part of your routine, it’s effortless!!! Please, please help us take advantage of this free money … if we all chip in, the revenue will be significant! For more information on the specific opportunities to give, please visit the individual listings under the Giving section of the website and plan ahead. GHS andyour children thank you!
