Greetings from the Capitol Hill Montessori at Logan’s (CHML) Parent Teacher Student Organization!
Capitol Hill Montessori is a thriving PK3-8th grade Montessori program, the first and only dedicated Montessori school within the District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) system. Located within blocks of the U.S. Capitol, in the heart of the District, CHML draws over 450 children from all of DC’s eight wards.
Our fundraising goal this year is to raise $80,000 overall, and community sponsorships like yours are an integral part of our strategy. Much of the money that we raise will support our special primary, elementary, and middle school curricula—providing much-needed Montessori materials, professional development, and digital, science, and theatre arts equipment that unfortunately, are not fully supported by the DCPS budget for the school. Sponsorships from our Capitol Hill neighbors will support our community events, which include: Fall Festival, Chili Cook-Off, International Night, and our annual spring play. These sponsorships gift teachers, parents, and children with many opportunities to strengthen their connections to the school and to each other. Furthermore, as a sponsor, you will participate in CHML’s mission to “educate the whole child for the whole world” which follows the principles of Dr. Maria Montessori.
A sponsorship will allow you to promote your brand, business, or product to a target audience of hundreds of local DC residents, visitors, and school supporters, providing you with a valuable platform for visibility within our community and beyond.
We have five sponsorship levels available to you this year:
