Message from Crossroads Board of Trustees

January 29, 2013

To the Crossroads Community,

The Crossroads Board of Trustees is dedicated to keeping an education at Crossroads as affordable as possible while preserving the school’s long-term strength and viability, even in times of economic uncertainty. On January 22, 2013, after months of careful and deliberate planning, the Board approved Crossroads Academy’s budget for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014. Tuition for the academic year 2013-14 has been set at $15,800 for grades 1-8, an increase of 1.9 percent. Tuition for next year’s kindergarten has been set at $9,250.

As a Board, we are committed to supporting Crossroads Academy’s unique Core Knowledge/Core Virtues curriculum and to attracting and retaining the most dedicated and talented teachers possible. Net tuition accounts for 79 percent of the operating budget. Even with careful budgeting, tuition revenues at Crossroads—consistent with most independent schools—don’t cover the full operating costs of the school. The shortfall here is $2,050 per student, a gap covered by external grants and the generous donations of our Crossroads community, particularly in support of our Annual Fund.

We thank all of you, who support Crossroads in so many ways. The school wouldn’t be what it is without you.

Margaret Rightmire
President, Board of Trustees
