The Daycroft Difference
Everyday Moments. Lasting Impact.
At Daycroft, the moments that matter aren’t always the biggest ones.
They’re the moment a child discovers something new.
The moment a question turns to curiosity.
The moment a student finds confidence in doing something independently.
The moment a classroom becomes a commuity.
Your support helps make these make these moments
possible—today and for generations to come.
The Daycroft Experience Is Made Possible by Our Community
Tuition supports the day-to-day operation of our school. Philanthropy allows us to invest beyond tuition—to strengthen the experiences, opportunities, and resources that help our students grow into thoughtful, capable, and compassionate individuals.
With Your Support We Can Provide
The People Who Help Our Students Flourish
At Daycroft, every child feels seen and supported. Our exceptional Montessori teachers build meaningful relationships with students, encouraging them to follow their interests, learn at their own pace, and develop independence to take ownership of their learning.
Beautiful Spaces Where Learning Comes Alive
Our campus is an important part of the Daycroft experience. From welands and open fields to playgrounds and our outdoor classroom, our learning environments invite students to explore, observe, create, and connect with the natural world while fostering curiosity, independence and discovery.
Student Leadership and Personal Growth
At Daycroft, students grow as learners and engaged members of their community. Through daily interactions students develop confidence, compassion, and independence while learning to lead with respect, take responsibility and embrace a lifelong love of learning.
Expanded Access to a Daycroft Education
Flexible Tuition helps more families have access to a Daycroft education.
Experiences Beyond the Traditional Classroom
Learning at Daycroft reaches beyond the traditional classroom. Through hands-on learning, Montessori materials, and experiences in art, Spanish, music, library, and physical education, students explore their interests, discover new strengths, and develop skills that contribute to a well-rounded education.
The Annual Fund: Investing in What Matters Most
The Annual Fund helps sustain our priorities beyond tuition, giving us flexibility to invest in what matters most—exceptional teachers, Montessori materials, students’ learning environment and experiences and Flexible Tuition.
Why We Give
“Giving to support other families in our community is a beautiful expression of the values that we all hope to pass on to our children. It is a truly meaningful way to make Daycroft the kind of community where every child belongs.”
