How many children attend the school?

Currently, there are 201 students in grades Nursery through 10th. This number changes as students come and go for various reasons, with a new class graduating and enrolling each year.

How are sponsorship payments handled?

We ask $30 a month or $360 per year. We ask for an initial commitment of one year, though many sponsor support their student for the length of their education. Payments can be made quarterly, twice yearly, or yearly and can be made by check or online with Paypal.

How is my money used?

Sponsorship money is used for the benefit of all children, rather than just for the sponsored student alone. Tuition fees are waived when a child is sponsored but the bulk of the money is used collectively to cover expenses like teachers' salaries, supplies, maintenance, bus operation, food, and more. Your child's sponsorship fees represent his or her share of the total operating costs for the Siddhartha School.
