According to the Association for Colorado Independent Schools, the average independent school covers 72% of its operating expenses with tuition. The remaining 28% must come from fundraising and other outside sources.
Last year, Bridge School tuition income covered 79% of our expenses. This year tuition is expected to cover 68% of our expenses. We are counting on Annual Fund, Winterfest, and a couple of Grants to cover the rest.
Of course, we'll accept donations anytime, if you feel the desire to push our button - thank you!
