Ways to Give

Volunteerism

Volunteer participation benefits all of our families, children, and staff and is an essential component of the Cambridge-Ellis community. Families will receive a volunteer interest survey in the spring for volunteer involvement the following school year. 

Community Builders (formerly the Parent Teacher Association)

The Community Builders begin forming committees and planning in the first weeks of the school year.  Family involvement is voluntary with several options for the level of time commitment, from co-chairing a committee to donating baked goods for a classroom birthday party.

To learn more about the work of our Community Builders, reach the committee chair Jess Tangren at pta@cambridge-ellis.org

Board Committee Work

To learn more about the work of our Board Committees, reach out to the Board Co-Chairs Hilary Rasmussen and Rahul Khara at cochairs@cambridge-ellis.org.

Classroom Collaboration

To learn more about or share ideas for classroom collaboration, reach out to your child's classroom teachers.

Gifts

Financial support in all amounts is welcomed. Financial gifts will support the financial aid needs of our community through tuition assistance for families, professional development opportunities for our faculty, as well as the many costs of running a school not fully covered by our tuition. Gifts to Cambridge-Ellis can be made in the following ways:
