Make a lasting impact today!
For over 60 years, Merritt Academy has stood as a cornerstone of our community, dedicated empowering both students and educators. At Merritt Academy, tuition alone doesn’t cover the full cost of education—there’s approximately a $3,300 gap per student, or over $1.4 million annually. Your gift helps bridge this gap, provides financial aid for students, and supports professional development for educators, shaping today’s teachers and tomorrow’s leaders. Thank you for joining us on this Journey!
A Nonprofit School
Merritt Academy is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) independent school, and your generous gift is 100% tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
