Frequently Asked Questions for Upper School
New Family Campaign
Forsyth Country Day School relies on tax-deductible, charitable gifts to sustain and enhance its programs and facilities. The school receives private support through its Annual Fund, rectricted gifts, major gifts, and planned giving.
New families are asked to consider a gift of $3000 to the Annual Fund during their initial year of enrollment. Of course, the amount each family and individual gives is a very personal decision, but we depend upon all members of our school community to participate to the best of their ability. Kindly direct inquiries to Rosalie Bland (ext. 306) in the Development Office.
