Capitol Hill Day School depends on the generosity of many people who support the School and our mission to "provide an education that engages students in the process of learning, with the aim of helping them become thoughtful, caring young people."  We are deeply grateful for the tremendous support we receive from our parents, grandparents, alumni/ae and their families, and special friends of the School.  Financial support sustains and strengthens the School in many ways.  As stated in our mission, "The School's sense of community is advanced by the active involvement of all its members," and this is true of philanthropic involvement and the impact it makes on the School.
