Did you know that tuition and fees monies go towards salaries? That means that EVERYTHING ELSE is funded through donations. The Annual Fund pays for basic needs – heat, lights, internet, insurance, copier, telephone, etc. – so that does not leave much leftover for “extras.” Your purchase of or donation of money towards any of these would make a BIG difference for our students and teachers. Our shipping address is:
North Branch School, 221 Mickens Road, Afton, VA 22920.
If you have questions, please contact Bonnie Holliday, Development Director, giving@nbsva.org or 434-989-2447.
