Community Giving Report 2023–2024

Commonwealth School’s mission is to educate young people from diverse backgrounds to become knowledgeable, thoughtful, and creative adults, capable of careful analysis, fruitful cooperation, responsible leadership, and deep commitment. Donations to The Commonwealth Fund and the School's endowment help us work to fulfill this mission and provide opportunities to our students, now and in the future.
