| | CCDS is a high quality and highly successful public school. We are known as an exemplary charter school with a unique curricular design, rigorous standards and a safe, nurturing environment that educates the whole child. Our community expects our students to be high achievers and good citizens. With support from parents and community members, we are on the leading edge of educational reform.
With financial support from parents, our Board of Directors, our staff, friends, community members and foundations, we have met and exceeded our goals. To maintain our status as one of the best public schools in the North State, we must continue to supplement our programs.
The State of California funds approximately 90% of the Chico Country Day School budget. The programs that make CCDS special are not provided for by our great state. These enrichment programs include art and music for all grade levels, strings for fourth graders, beginning and advanced band for 5th and 6th graders, our Outdoor Classroom & Environmental Science program, our Library, and lower than average class sizes, as well as our facility. Additionally, our staff is highly trained and qualified, with professional development and mentoring a high priority. Our kind and courteous staff knows and cares for each student here at CCDS, creating a safe and secure environment for optimized learning. The unfunded 10% creates a funding gap of approximately $323 per CCDS student.
Our goal for this year of fundraising is to raise that $323 per student or $100,000, with 100% family participation, at any level that each family feels is appropriate. Please support our school by giving to the Chico Country Day School Annual Fund.
