Fueling Curiosity, Creativity, and Character Every Day.

The Academy Fund is our highest annual giving priority, directly sustaining the everyday moments, extraordinary tools, and devoted teachers that help our children rise.

GIVE TO THE ACADEMY FUND NOW

Bridging the Gap Between Tuition and Transformation

Tuition powers our essential operations, but it is The Academy Fund that makes an Academy education truly transformative. Like most leading independent schools, tuition covers approximately 70% of our operating budget. Annual tax-deductible gifts bridge that vital 30% gap. When you support The Academy Fund, your contribution goes to work immediately. It puts state-of-the-art tools into our STEAM spaces, replenishes supplies in our greenhouse, supports field trips and regional competitions, and provides continuous professional development for our faculty.

Leadership Annual Giving | The Crest Society  

The Crest Society recognizes leadership donors who contribute $5,000 or more to The Academy Fund within a single fiscal year. Named after our iconic legacy crest, members of The Crest Society set the standard for philanthropic vision at The Grosse Pointe Academy.

Your leadership support directly accelerates classroom innovation, expands tuition assistance, and empowers our teachers to nurture every child's potential.
