Giving:
Student Service Projects
Our students lead us in giving by identifying needs and planning how to meet them. From a Skate-A-Thon for Haiti, to gathering toothbrushes for a mission in Philadelphia - they will ask you to help.
Annual Fund
Tuition provides the largest portion of the school's income. However, as in most independent schools, it does not cover all program needs. The Annual Fund bridges the gap. This fund is a critical way for our family (parents, alumni, friends, and community supporters) to support TQS.
Scholarship Funds
- George Rowe Scholarship Fund
- Maggie Fine Fund
There are many families who need financial aid to help send their child/children to TQS. For them, we offer assistance through financial aid. Scholarships are always need-based.
