Caring for the Teachers Who Care for Our Children

Mansio Montessori Giving Tuesday • December 1, 2026–12:00 am to 11:59 pm

A reassuring smile at the classroom door. A patient answer to another “why?” A quiet word of encouragement when a child says, “I can’t.”

These everyday moments reflect the care our Mansio teachers bring to their work. This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to help meet an everyday need of theirs.

Fifteen staff members. One staff bathroom.

Mansio’s classrooms are housed in a renovated residence—a setting that gives our school its familiar, welcoming character. But the building also presents practical challenges.

Our 15 staff members share one staff bathroom. On busy days, three people may be waiting, and a routine bathroom break can mean approximately 15 minutes away from the classroom.

An added staff bathroom will reduce waiting and help our teachers return to their classrooms sooner.

It is a practical improvement that will make a daily difference for the people who give our children so much attention, patience, and care.

Our Giving Tuesday Goal: $20,000

Creating an additional bathroom means bringing together all the essentials: plumbing, electricity, ventilation, walls, a door, a toilet, and a sink. Gifts will also support the preparation, installation, and finishing work needed to make the space ready for use.

Together, we can make this happen.

Many Gifts. One Shared Goal.

Here is one-way gifts of varied sizes could bring us to $20,000:

This chart illustrates one path to our goal. Gifts of any amount are welcome and appreciated.

We know the holiday season brings special plans, expenses, and many opportunities to give. Please choose an amount that feels comfortable for you. Every gift connects with others to move this project forward.

Throughout Giving Tuesday, we will celebrate our progress together:

$5,000 • $10,000 • $15,000 • $20,000

Whether you are a current parent, an alumni family, a grandparent, or a friend of Mansio, your gift is a meaningful way to support the teachers at the heart of our school.

On December 1, help us care for the teachers who care for our children.
