OHMCS Gives

Support Oak Hill Montessori Community School

OHMCS Gives is a donation-based campaign to support the school’s annual operating budget to help enhance every child’s educational experience.

2024/2025 OHMCS Gives Goal: $40,000.

Contributions help decrease the gap between state reimbursement (upper school), tuition (lower school) and operating costs, and are a vital part of the operating budget to support classroom materials, supplies, salaries, faculty professional development, and maintenance of our campus.

What are some ways OHMCS Gives supports our students?

  • OHMCS provides a beautiful outdoor campus — all of which comes with routine maintenance, as well as special projects, such as playground improvements, exterior painting, tree removal and replanting.

  • Although breakfast and lunch is offered for free to K-8 students, OHMCS incurs almost $90,000 in unreimbursed expenses to offset the cost of running the nutrition program.

  • We stay true to the elementary Montessori model with the presence of an educational assistant in each elementary classroom. This is simply not a component of other charter school models.

Gifts to OHMCS Gives are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

Ways to give:

  • Credit Card — Make a one-time gift or create a recurring monthly gift.

  • Cash, checks, or money orders may be made payable to OHMCS and mailed to the school or dropped off in the front office.

  • Stocks, Bonds and other Securities — Gifts of stocks, bonds and/or appreciated securities can be made.

  • Corporate Matching Gifts — You can double – or even triple – your gift if your employer offers a Matching Gifts Program. Check with your HR department to see if your employer offers one.

Our goal is 100% participation from Families, Staff and the Board!
