Why Support Friends?
Why should you support Friends School? Simply put, to help us continue the nearly 300-year-old tradition of providing a Quaker education, built on a framework of academic excellence, and that prepares students for the future.
Gifts to Friends School have a profound effect on the quality of education we offer our students — that is, fostering traditional values, inspiring innovation, and instilling the confidence to challenge, inquire and take action. Friends students have a powerful impact on our ever changing world. We thank you for offering your support today.
88%
of our yearly costs are covered by tuition. The rest comes from GIVING and other revenue sources.
“Sending me to Friends is one of the greatest of the many things my parents did for me. I am sure that it is the finest school I ever attended.”
