The Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is the mainstay of the school’s fundraising program. This critical support provides unrestricted funds that allow BHMS to fund our immediate priorities and to react quickly to opportunities and needs as they arise. The Annual Fund helps to sustain and enhance our extraordinary programs and facilities – our exceptional Montessori-trained teachers, our professional interdisciplinary team, our learning and emotional support services, our financial aid program and our state-of-the-art computers and systems. Thus, your support translates to more personal attention, increased intellectual stimulation, and a closer school community. It also means a solid, holistic foundation for our student’s lives.
Donations are solicited and gratefully accepted every year from all members of our community by mail and through volunteer phone calls. Gifts of all sizes are greatly appreciated, so please help us meet our goal of 100% participation from all of our families, alumnae/i, faculty, staff and friends. Please keep in mind that all pledges are due by June 30, 2008 and will be acknowledged on our Annual Fund display and in the Annual Report. You may be able to double your gift to BHMS.

You may want to make your contribution in honor or in memory of a faculty member, student, loved one, or staff member. These gifts are welcomed and are a particularly meaningful way to benefit our entire school community.
