Endowments

For The Arts Endowment

In 2002, an active and passionate group of parents and arts supporters approached the Ed Foundation to conduct an arts endowment fundraising campaign, which, over three years, raised $2 million.

The For The Arts Endowment was valued at $3,520,084 as of June 30, 2021. Income from this endowment ($153,900 in 2021-2022) funds arts programs in our schools, including a dance specialist for our 6th graders, arts programs at Olympic High School, middle and high school theater funding, assistant music teachers in Title I elementary and Title I feeder middle schools, and grants to all secondary Visual Arts teachers
