At Verde Valley School, education extends far beyond the classroom. It rises with the red rocks, connects deeply to the Sedona community, and reaches out into the world. Students learn through the rigorous International Baccalaureate curriculum and by exploring our trails and gardens, engaging in service projects, creating in the arts, and preparing for college and for life as global citizens.
This transformative education is made possible by a partnership between tuition and philanthropy. Tuition covers only part of the cost.
The Seven Warriors Annual Fund bridges the gap each year, raising and spending funds in the same year to ensure every student has access to the full VVS experience.
Your generosity fuels the life of the school in four essential ways:
The Seven Warriors are the iconic red rock formation overlooking our campus. They stand as symbols of unity and strength, individual peaks forming something greater together. The Annual Fund is built on the same idea: every gift, no matter the size, joins with others to make a lasting impact.
A gift to Verde Valley School is an investment. Its dividends are not tracked on a balance sheet. They are counted in our hearts, and in every student who leaves here ready to be a citizen of the world.
The Seven Warriors Annual Fund is not about building for the distant future. It’s about sustaining students today. Each dollar raised this year is put to work immediately, filling the gap between tuition and the real cost of education.
Your gift ensures VVS students can thrive right now.
Like the peaks of the Seven Warriors, each gift stands stronger when joined with others. Together, we ensure that Verde Valley School remains a place where education reaches beyond classrooms into the red rocks, the community, and the world.
Spread your gift across the year with an automatic monthly gift. A small recurring gift is easier to afford than one large sum, and together those gifts form the baseline of the annual fund. Choose “Recurring Donation” on the giving form and pick your amount and start date.
