Gifts in Kind
The gifts: Our generous donors of teaching equipment and supplies, art, musical instruments, books, food for events, silent auction items, sports and playground equipment, furniture, and more. They have made 199 donations between 2007 and 2016. We are still sorting our records and formatting them. Please visit this page again soon.
How people find us: Our donors found us as LCA families in our school, as personal friends and colleagues, online, and via drop-in visits to the school. Of note, we have received a piano, violins, 7,000 books, art from around the world, copious posters and educational games, even oryx bones for anatomy, and food for our three signature events, Food for Thought, among many other items.
Hours of service
Many people have contributed their time. Again, we’re in the midst of a massive website revision, so we’re tallying these contributions anew and formatting them for presentation. Please visit this site soon.
Our Head of School, Dr. Lou Ellen Kay, and our Board Chair, Dr. Vince Gutschick, have worked full-time essentially from the beginning in 2007, organizing the business, teaching, keeping the books, soliciting funds and other donations, setting up and helping run events, doing publicity, and more.
(And more about how parents and others have helped)
