Tuition covers approximately 75% of DCS operating expenses. Like virtually all private schools, the DCS Board of Directors reviews the operating budget each year and then tuition is intentionally set below the full cost. This helps keep DCS more affordable to a wider range of families. The Annual Fund also allows our school community (parents, friends, extended family, and other DCS partners) to make up the deficit through tax deductible donations.

Being part of a covenant Christian environment is the top reason DCS families shared for choosing our school, which means we share similar faith values. It also means we are building something great together – that we are each committed to building our school and nurturing students for the glory of God. Your generosity will make an incredible impact on the next generation of young leaders by providing academic excellence, Christ-centered instruction, and outstanding educational experiences at DCS.

Whether you donate $1,000 or $100,000, our goal is to achieve 100% participation in the Annual Fund among DCS families. Our prayer is simply that you please consider donating an amount that is meaningful to your family. 

• If you have given previously to DCS, we ask you to please consider increasing your donation amount this year.
• If you are new to the DCS Annual Fund, please consider joining us this year as we seek to meet our goal. 
   

100% participation among our families demonstrates the dedication of our community. As DCS applies for grants, the foundations that give those grants often require 100% participation. We trust God for 100% participation from DCS families, and we actually require 100% participation from DCS Board members. 
 

DCS raised approximately $400,000 in the 2022-2023 Annual Fund from DCS families, Board members, grandparents and other supporters. Thank you!

Yes, if you prefer to schedule a donation for the future, simply make a “pledge,” which is a commitment to donate a specific amount on a specific date. Email giving@dunwoodycs.org and let us know the amount and future donation date. We will send you reminders, so you can fulfill your pledge. 

Yes, the Pay it Forward program is a separate program that only funds student scholarships. If you file taxes in the state of Georgia, we ask that you consider both a donation to the DCS Annual Fund, as well as a donation to the Pay it Forward program on behalf of DCS. The Pay it Forward program provides donors with a 1:1 tax credit for your donation, which means you get 100% of your donation back in the form of a tax credit - it truly is a remarkable program that benefits many students.
