“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” — Winston Churchill
Did You Know...
in our first year, Cincinnati Classical Academy students:
- Joyfully recited over 100 poems and historical texts in one school year
- Delved into algebraic concepts using Singapore Math
- 30% of our 6th graders placed in the regional science fair; 31% of them went to State
- Won chess tournaments and the Tristate Scripps Spelling Bee
These are a few successes achieved with less funding than traditional public school districts receive. We do more with less. As a public community school, Cincy Classical receives no additional funding beyond the base rate as traditional public schools do. We must cover capital and other program and indirect and program costs independently.
Ways to Give:

Matching Gifts
Most companies will match an employee’s gift to a charity one-to-one, while others may even match up to three-to-one! Check with your HR department to see if your company offers a matching gift.
Securities
Cincy Classical also holds a brokerage account for the donation of securities, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other investment holdings. Tax savings to the donor can be significant. Please contact Mrs. Claudia Kimura at ckimura@cincyclassical.org.

The Annual Fund helps us to make up for what we lack. We already do so much MORE with so much LESS. Support of the Annual fund enables CLASSICAL and our students to grow to even greater heights!
