Giving to Roycemore: Why Contribute?

Why is it important to contribute to Roycemore?
Since its inception in 1915, the faculty and administration of Roycemore have been absolutely committed to inspiring personal excellence and celebrating individuality by creating a nurturing, challenging environment for each and every student, from Junior Kindergarten through Grade 12. However, our school, like every other independent school, college and university, recognizes that tuition and fees paid by enrolled students do not cover total costs.

Your gift to Roycemore will provide critical funds to maintain its unique blend of small class size, individualized attention and wide range of educational opportunities.

What is the Roycemore School Annual Fund?
Gifts made to Roycemore support virtually every area of the School and enable Roycemore to be an even better educational environment. Contributions are used:
  • To attract and retain our superb faculty who are committed to, and excited about, helping each student achieve success.
  • To provide the materials and equipment needed for art, music, science and the media center.

To sustain and increase the activities that broaden the students' Roycemore experience in the areas of athletics, the arts, math contests, Scholastic Bowl, student performances and Palio.

Plan to be Part of the Future!
In order to honor our alumni and friends who commit future support to Roycemore, we have created the Rebecca Ashley Thatcher Society. Miss Ashley, as she was known by the girls at Roycemore, served the school from 1916 until her retirement in 1941. All donors who notify us of their bequest intentions or set up gift annuities or charitable remainder trusts will be members of the Society, and Society Members will be featured in the Honor Roll of Donors.

Ways to Give
Gifts to Roycemore may include cash, credit cards, stock, recurring gifts, deferred gifts and bequests. Each gift helps ensure the continued success of Roycemore School. You may also qualify for a match from your corporation. We always welcome gifts in memory or honor of a special individual.
