Honoring our Roots, Growing our Future.

Mark your calendars! Our once-a-year school-wide fundraiser, Annual Giving Week, is September 21–25, and we’re wrapping up the week with a very special evening celebrating Channing Hall’s 20th anniversary! Join us on Friday, September 25 for our Founders Tree Planting at 4:30 PM, followed by our second annual STEM Expo from 5:00–7:00 PM. Come help us honor our roots, celebrate 20 years of Channing Hall, and grow our future with an evening of community, hands-on STEM fun and celebration!

Help Us Finish Our Extreme Gym Makeover!

This is a big year at Channing Hall, we’re celebrating 20 years! And what better way to celebrate than by investing in a space that has served nearly every Channing Hall student over the past two decades?

This year marks the second and final year of fundraising for our gym transformation, and we’re getting closer to making it happen!

Funds raised through last year’s Annual Giving campaign and PTO Fun Run have been set aside for this project and will be combined with the funds we raise this year. Together, our school and PTO communities have already given us a fantastic head start. Now we’re ready for one final push to make the full transformation possible!

Our plans include new wood-look sports flooring, a modern sound system, fresh paint, retractable basketball hoops, a refreshed Koda Café and serving area, and a new school mural.

The goal is a brighter, more functional and welcoming space for PE, athletics, lunch, assemblies, performances, celebrations and all the everyday moments that happen in our gym.

Why Annual Giving?

You won’t see Channing Hall students selling chocolate bars, wrapping paper or coupon books. Instead, we ask families who are able to partner directly with our school.

100% of your Annual Giving donation stays at Channing Hall, helping us provide exceptional programs, facilities and opportunities for our students.

This year, we’re asking each family to consider a donation of $250. Every gift matters, whether it’s $25, $250 or more. When our community gives together, those donations add up quickly!

The $2,500 Classroom Challenge

We’re making Annual Giving a little more fun for our students, too!

When a classroom reaches $2,500 in donations, the class gets to celebrate with a special fruit or vegetable party of their choice!

Watermelon? Strawberries? Apples? A giant veggie spread? The students get to choose.

It’s a fun way for classrooms to work toward a shared goal while helping us reach our school-wide Annual Giving goal.

How to Give

Donate by cash, check or card, online or in person.

We also accept stock donations, and many employers offer matching gifts, which can double the impact of your donation.

Help Us Finish What We Started

Twenty years ago, Channing Hall’s founders planted the seed for the school we have today. This anniversary year, we have the opportunity to honor that legacy by investing in the students who will carry Channing Hall into its next 20 years.

Honoring Our Roots. Growing Our Future.

Thank you for helping us finish our gym transformation and create a space our students will enjoy for years to come.
