A public charter school serving Transitional Kindergarten-8th grade students throughout Nevada County, California. The shared vision of our school is to provide a rigorous academic environment using art as a lens to shape curriculum.
“The Arts—Music, Dance, Theater, and the Visual Arts—are crucial to the complete education of a child. Their practice, understanding and appreciation are essential to human experience and learning itself. Participation in the arts fosters a balanced and enriched life and engenders a commitment to excellence. The Arts are not simply a means; they are an end in themselves. The Arts make us human and whole”.
The Annual Giving Campaign
Goal $160,000.
The Annual Giving Campaign
NCSA exists today because every year families have contributed to our Annual Giving Campaign. Our goal of $160,000.00 is essential to our operating budget and the success of our school.
Why do we ask for $800 per student?
$800 per student funds the deficit from what the state provides and what our program actually costs. We know that not all families can give $800 for each of their children, and some can give $800 plus some. What is most important is for families to show their support for NCSA by giving an amount significant to them. Is a $650, $400 or $200 contribution significant? YES! In the end, it’s a culmination of everyone’s participation at the level they can give. Our goal is $160,000. Annual Giving Campaign contributions are tax-deductible (after incentives).
