Aiden's Hidden Treasure Re-Enrollment
Our 9-year old son, Aiden, has been a student at Hidden Treasure Christian School (www.hiddentreasure.org) for the past two years where he has greatly benefited from the specialized care and support he has received from his teachers in their unique learning environment. In spite of his speech and reading delays, he advanced almost two grade levels in just one year. He loves hanging out with his friends and teachers, but the best part about attending Hidden Treasure is the personal attention he receives for his specific needs.
For nearly 40 years, Hidden Treasure Christian School has been providing quality special education instruction to children with a wide range of physical, mental, emotional, developmental and learning disabilities. They strive to provide a safe, nurturing environment where young people understand their purpose of glorifying God and are given the opportunity to develop their God-given potential.
Due to their low teacher to student ratio, as well as the unique requirements of the schooling environment, the yearly tuition per student is presently $20,500. For most families this financial need is met through a combination of three sources:
- Parent/guardian payments
- Direct scholarships made possible by the school’s generous donors
- External scholarship support from Exceptional SC
(South Carolina’s only exceptional needs scholarship organization)
Due to unforeseen recent circumstances, primarily the impact of the COVID-19 crisis, the Exceptional SC scholarship program is currently suspended. Hidden Treasure is reaching out to its supporters and donors in an effort to further boost the school’s own scholarship resources, however, it is anticipated that an additional financial burden of $5,000 - $10,000 will be felt by most families.
It is our strong desire to keep Aiden enrolled at Hidden Treasure for the coming school year, however, due to these recent events, our family needs to raise at least $10,000 for this year’s tuition cost.
It would be greatly appreciated if you were willing to donate toward our family’s need and help Aiden continue his schooling at Hidden Treasure. All donations received will be invested directly in his ongoing special needs educational efforts.
Thank you.
