As with most private schools, tuition alone does not cover the full cost of educating a child at Pinecrest Academy. Each year, tuition and fees cover approximately 90% of the education cost per student. The remaining 10% comes from fundraising efforts. Annual Fund donations provide the essential funding we need for our daily needs. Students, teachers, faculty, and staff all benefit from donations to the Annual Fund. Everyone in our community is blessed by your generosity.
Where do Annual Fund dollars go specifically? They help pay the bills! Some examples:
- Academic programs
- Teacher salaries
- Substitute teachers
- Classroom supplies and equipment
- Building and grounds maintenance
- Cafeteria staff
- Cleaning staff
- Electricity
- Plumbing and water
- Professional development
- Admissions materials
