The Epiphany School Foundation works hand in hand with the school community to uphold a mission of academic excellence, spiritual growth, and inclusivity. By bridging the gap between tuition and the true cost of education, the Foundation ensures access to exceptional resources and a nurturing environment. Through events and generous support, it fosters connection among families, alumni, and friends in service of Epiphany’s enduring values.
Dear Families and Friends,
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, thank you for your continued support of the Epiphany School Foundation and its mission to educate the whole child—fostering academic excellence, strong character, deep faith, and a lasting sense of community responsibility—all grounded in our shared value-centered Catholic tradition.
The Foundation is a nonprofit organization that was created in 1999 to help keep tuition rates at an affordable level for all families while providing tuition assistance, enhanced programs, advanced technology, and professional development for faculty.
[I would like to mention some specific things here. What would be best / most accurate these days? Assistant teachers in Toddler Twos through 4th grade, reading specialist and specialized faculty in art, music, foreign language, and physical education? Are we still working with the NY Historical Society? Anything else?]
Epiphany students continue to excel academically, far surpassing city and regional averages. On the 2024 New York State tests, 90% of our students achieved proficiency in ELA (compared to 72% in the Manhattan region and 64% ADNY-wide), and 92% in Math (versus 78% and 69%, respectively).
With an average tuition rate of $12,100, Epiphany offers its families tremendous value when compared to other similar schools in the city where tuition is often over $60,000/year. Only 80% of the cost of educating every Epiphany student each year is covered by tuition, which amounts to a shortfall of over $2,500 per child.
We strive to have 100% of current families support the Annual Fund to help ensure our continued success. We are grateful for your participation, as it not only helps us reach our goal, but it can also enhance eligibility for certain grants and funding opportunities. Strong support reflects our community’s commitment to Epiphany’s mission and long-term sustainability.
Through your generosity, we are strengthening the vibrant, faith-filled community that makes Epiphany so special. Thank you for your continued support!
