Annual Fund
What is the Annual Fund?
By design, tuition alone does not cover the cost of a Maret education. As a result, the School relies on other sources of revenue, including the Annual Fund, to advance mission priorities while keeping the school affordable and inclusive for more families. Gifts to the Maret Annual Fund have an immediate impact and account for 6% of the operating budget every year.

Why I give:
I believe in the Maret commitment to a high quality education and thriving lives for all its community members. My gift is one way to pay forward to other young minds the gifts my children received as scholars.
