Annual Report

Dear Friends,

As in most independent schools, The Long Ridge School relies on fundraising events and activities to supplement tuition income as part of our annual budget.  The great success of these events is due to the amazing generosity and dedication of so many members of the Long Ridge community. We could not accomplish so much without the many volunteers who contribute so much time, energy, expertise, and enthusiasm to the school.

The Long Ridge School’s Board of Trustees work on our new strategic plan, Framework for Our Future, used research completed by The Harvard Business School Community Partners and the most recent  Connecticut Association of Independent Schools reaccreditation report. Framework for Our Future goals will assure an exceptional educational experience, an exceptional community experience as well as assure institutional strength and advancement for our school.

In the pages of the attached 2014-2015 Annual Fundraising Report, you will find listed the many families, friends and companies who make LRS a philanthropic priority. The Annual Fund theme Together we give, together we grow illustrates how each gift collectively benefits the entire LRS community. Every contribution to The Long Ridge School makes a difference and enhances the education of current and future LRS students.  Thank you again to everyone for your exceptional generosity and support.

With gratitude,

Kris Bria

Head of School
