Giving

Invest in the Future of The Independent School

At The Independent School, every gift—large or small—makes a meaningful difference. Your generosity helps us provide an exceptional education that inspires curiosity, fosters creativity, builds character, and empowers students to reach their full potential.

The Panther Fund is our school’s annual fund and the cornerstone of giving at TIS. It impacts every corner of our community—supporting academics that challenge, arts that inspire, athletics that build pride, and faculty and staff who nurture and guide our students every day. Quite simply, the Panther Fund ensures that every Panther has the opportunity to thrive.

As a private, non-profit institution, TIS relies on the support of our community to bridge the gap between tuition and the true cost of a TIS education. When you give to the Panther Fund, you join parents, alumni, grandparents, trustees, faculty, staff, and friends in sustaining our mission and strengthening our future.

Whether through the Panther Fund, corporate sponsorships, planned giving, or other avenues, your investment helps shape the lives of our students and the future of our school.

Thank you for being part of our story—and for believing in the power of education. Together, we can ensure that Panther Pride shines bright for generations to come.
