For over 30 years, the Essex Fells Foundation has supported excellence in education. Through generous financial support from our parents and community members, we have fulfilled over $1.3 million dollars in teacher and district grants.  These enhancements in technology, cultural arts, educational programming and equipment, help ensure the school’s continued high standards, outside of school budget restrictions. 

​

​We thank you for your continued partnership and supporting our private commitment to public education.

The founding members consisted not only of parents of school-age children, but also of town leaders, Essex Fells School alumni, senior citizens and many other residents who wished to preserve the excellence of our school.

​

Since its inception, the Foundation has made grants in excess of $1,000,000 to the Essex Fells School. From technology to cultural arts to teacher development, the Foundation has played an integral role in preserving the quality of an Essex Fells School education.

​

We thank you for taking the time to learn more about the Foundation.  We hope that by understanding the Foundation's mission, you will join us in our efforts to ensure elevated standards for the Essex Fells School.  The continued success of our town's most valuable asset depends on you and our private commitment to public education.
