Events at Near North Montessori
To help support NNM's overall mission to educate the whole child, the school recognizes the importance of and need for both family-centered community building events and direct fundraising efforts.
The focus of our events is to support NNM for the benefit of the children. To maintain a strong sense of community spirit, the school offers family-centered all-school events throughout the school year that focus on providing a positive volunteer experience for parents and a model of cooperation and shared effort for the children.
Our annual adults-only fundraiser, The Big Night, began in 2004. It raises vital monies for our Scholarship Fund.
To financially support the school beyond its tuition-based budget, the school also offers direct fundraising opportunities which focus on fiscal campaigns involving the Annual Fund, the Endowment Fund, and the Staff Bonus Pool.
The integral combination of family-centered events and parent participation in fundraising provides a vital foundation for the school and its ongoing mission of educating the whole child.
