What is Lead the Way?
Lead the Way is Casady’s annual giving week focused on participation, not amount.
It’s about showing up, as a community, to support our School. Every gift matters!

What is the Annual Fund?
Did you know that tuition dollars alone do not cover the full cost to attend? Tuition covers roughly 86% of Casady’s costs. The Annual Fund bridges that gap—supporting our people, places, and programs. Gifts to the Annual Fund allow the School to respond to needs and opportunities throughout the year, ensuring that Casady has the resources, tools, and environment necessary for an exceptional educational experience.
Our 2026 Goal
Last year, 67% of Casady families participated.
This year, we’re aiming for:
- 100% Parent Participation
- Increase alumni and community participation
The Annual Fund runs from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026. All gifts received during this period will count toward parent participation.
Ways to Lead the Way
- Make a gift
- Become an Advocate
