Sagebrush Capital Fundraiser - Let's Plan the New Elementary
Dear Sagebrush Community,
For more than twenty-five years, Sagebrush Montessori has provided children in the Tri-Cities with the best Montessori education in an environment that celebrates them as individuals and nurtures their development into prepared adults.
​
At last month’s Strategic Update Presentation, we shared that the Elementary program will soon outgrow our rented space. To position the school for success in the next twenty-five years and beyond, to accommodate the full demand for our programs, and to unite our community on one campus we are embarking on a major facilities project to create a new, expanded Elementary building on our Thayer Drive property adjacent to the Children’s House.
We are launching the first phase of a capital campaign to support construction of this facility. This phase will fund the final architectural and civil engineering plans, the permitting needed for construction bids, and enable us to explore funding models for the new Elementary facility.
​
Our fundraising goal in the planning phase is $85,000 by August 1!
There are many ways to give to Sagebrush:
-
Direct donation at https://sagebrushmontessori.betterworld.org/donate or by check mailed or left with the administrative office.
-
Commit to “summer tuition” by continuing to pay your monthly tuition amount across the summer months, or commit to a monthly contribution on top of your regular tuition payments.
-
Gift appreciated stock to enjoy additional tax benefits.
-
Purchase a silent auction item at the Family Fun Day on May 20.
​
All donations to Sagebrush are tax deductible. Our goal is 100% participation in this phase and with 75+ families in the program, this is an achievable goal. Whatever you can donate is valued; every contribution shows your appreciation for what those who came before us worked together to build, and what we can leave for those who follow. Sagebrush will always be a community that works together to build for the future.
Please support this next stage of growth at Sagebrush.
​
Thank you,
The Sagebrush Board of Directors
Current Plans
Current plans for a new Elementary facility include a building with space for four classrooms build in the rear of our current Thayer Drive property. The Children's House will remain in its current location. The addition of new Elementary classrooms will allow Sagebrush to accommodate demand from students moving up from the Children's House.
