Giving Back to Christ Episcopal School

For more than forty years, Christ Episcopal School has prepared talented boys and girls to serve as active members of a Christian community of learners, one that teaches them to use their minds well."

Christ Episcopal School has been able to fulfill this mission, in large part, because our community of parents, alumni, grandparents and friends who have given generously of their time, energy, and assets.

Much like other area independent schools, Christ Episcopal School relies on tuition and the generosity of our community to sustain and advance this mission. While tuition covers two-thirds of the cost of educating a student at Christ Episcopal School, the remaining one-third is supplemented by contributions to the Annual Fund.

While the Annual Fund is Christ Episcopal School’s yearly priority, all current families, alumni, grandparents, and friends are encouraged to support the fund. Other opportunities for supporting the school are also available. Christ Episcopal School accepts gifts restricted to support a specific program, teachers’ compensation, and/or building improvements. Annual events such as the Golf Classic, Donna Diamond Scholarship Fund Dinner, and the Spring Auction and Gala offer still more opportunities to support Christ Episcopal School.

If you would like to discuss your gift to Christ Episcopal School, please e-mail Melissa Prather, Director of Advancement and External Affairs at or call her at 301-279-6920.
