As a non-profit organization, Los Encinos School relies on philanthropic support to bring our mission to life on campus each day.  Tuition and fees cover only 89% of our costs, leaving a budget gap of over $3,250 per student.  The 2018-2019 school year marks the sixth year in a row in which 100% of our community participated in filling this budget gap, showing the big commitment that our families, faculty & staff, and Board of Trustees have in our small school.  We thank you for your continued generosity and your partnership in making Los Encinos School a place where students take risks, solve problems, and love learning.
