What does my donation do?
For students aiming to complete high school, funding is often a significant barrier. Smart Schools strives to keep tuition low and utilizes state funding to support students, achieving great success in recent years.
However, due to state budget cuts and funding limitations, Smart Schools has seen increased financial needs for students. Your donation can help provide a brighter future for a student.
Funding Student Success: the economic Impact of a Graduate
Your gift will provide support to students that otherwise could not afford to return to school and earn their diploma, making an impact for them and their community.
“Using 2023 dollars... from a social perspective, graduating high school rather than withdrawing yields the benefit of $480,000 per high school graduate over a lifetime. The economic burden related to students withdrawing from high school without graduating is high, reflecting lost earnings — which has implications for the individual and society — as well as worse health outcomes and greater spending on crime. And from a taxpayer perspective, new high school graduates also result in higher revenues and lower government spending to the tune of $148,000 over a lifetime.”
Meet Some of our graduates
Smart Schools has graduated over 1,500 students since our inception, and the momentum grows each year. We continue to be amazed at our students and the challenges they overcome. Your donation will help support graduates such as Leila and David.
