The Annual Fund Needs Your Participation

At The Howard School, the Howard Fund is the bridge that allows us to go above and beyond for our students. It closes the gap between tuition and total operating costs of our specialized programs, directly enhancing our ability to deliver an outstanding educational experience across our entire campus.

Thank you to the 45% of families who have already joined in! Our goal is 100% participation in the Howard Fund, and we need your help to get there.

Every gift, of any size, makes a difference and brings us closer together as a community. Join us and help us reach 100%!
 

 
 
 

Celebrating the Class of 2026: Watch Live!

Friday, May 15 | On Campus and Livestream

We are so proud of our seniors as they prepare to cross the stage and begin their next chapters. Whether you are across town or across the country, we invite our entire Howard community to join us in celebrating this incredible milestone.

 

You Might Be Missing More Than You Think 
 

Our Lost & Found is officially overflowing: hoodies, sweaters, long-sleeve tees, water bottles, jackets…you name it. There’s a very good chance something in there belongs to your student.

Swing by the gym lobby and take a quick look. You might be surprised by what you find.

Any items not claimed by the last day of school (Friday, May 22) will be donated to a local charity.
