Creating Inclusive Education Opportunities In The Gorge
This gala is our cornerstone event for fundraising, with 100% of the proceeds fueling our tuition assistance program. Currently benefiting 12% of our students by covering up to 60% of their annual tuition, our vision is to expand these offerings, making the Montessori method more accessible and nurturing a diverse community of inquisitive learners.
"Receiving discounted tuition through Little Oak Montessori's assistance program has been a game-changer for our family. It means our child can continue to thrive in a program we deeply believe in, allowing us to volunteer more of our time in the classroom, and contribute to the school's mission of uplifting the entire community. This support has not only eased our financial burden but has also strengthened our bond with the school and its invaluable work," comments a grateful parent who has benefited from the tuition support. A Costume Gala Like No Other
This year's gala transcends the traditional fundraiser, transforming into a spectacular costume party for adults. Embrace the theme of "An Enchanted Evening" with your most imaginative, magical, or fantastical attire. The night will feature breathtaking live performances by Nika Kermani's renowned dance troupe, amidst a setting adorned with spellbinding decorations. Prepare for an evening where fairy tales spring to life, complete with dancing and merriment that promises to be the highlight of your social calendar.
