Head of School Greatest Needs Fund
This is an unrestricted gift that will be used where it is needed most. While all gifts to all areas are valuable, this one is, as we’ve put it, our greatest need. From the utility bills which are upward $10,000 per month to keep our classrooms warm, to urgent maintenance issues, this fund gives us the flexibility to address the most pressing needs quickly and safely.
Upper School Tuition angel fund
Currently, 32% of Upper School students qualify for financial aid. Consider helping a deserving student with a transformative gift that would allow her to receive a Lacordaire Upper School education. Tuition Angel gifts can be one-time or recurring.

FACULTY ENRICHMENT FUND
100% of Lacordaire faculty and staff participate in professional development each year, but many are limited by costs and Lacordaire’s budget constraints. Help bring our faculty to their dream PD sessions so that they can bring that knowledge back to the classroom where they are transforming young lives.
Arts Enrichment Fund
As a Liberal Arts school, and in keeping with the values of the Dominican Sisters, students at Lacordaire are exposed to art forms from sculpture, painting, and photography to theatre arts, including set design, Shakespeare, and more. Your gift will support the lasting benefits of an arts education.
CAMPUS CARE & MPROVEMENT FUND
Lacordaire’s campus is over 100 years old. Building maintenance as well as groundskeeping and landscaping costs a significant amount, from snow plowing, landscaping, repairs, and capital improvements. Help us maintain our historic campus and modernize our classrooms with this important fund.
