Denver has a child poverty rate of 26.2- The High School dropout rate among minority students is 50%
High school dropouts cost between $320 billion and $350 billion annually in lost wages, taxable income, health, welfare and incarceration costs.
Quality education and strong moral guidance are essential in helping children move beyond the confines of limited-income and into a future of opportunity. Because many of Inner City School's students typically come from low-income minority families that may not have strong models of success in place, the lessons of excellence and respect taught at ICS go far beyond the simple basics of math and reading. By sponsoring a child, your contribution is directly helping to improve the future of Denver's inner city youth.

Why your Contribution Makes a Difference
Tuition, whether state or private funded, is what enables a school to provide a quality education. As a small private school with a big mission to provide children from the surrounding areas with a quality Christian pre-school and elementary education that will prepare them for success in all avenues of life, our focus is to reach families who would not otherwise have the opportunity for a private Christian education. ICS does not receive state funding and relies upon the generous donations from individuals, businesses, foundations, and churches.
Because of the population we serve, the majority of our student's families are unable to pay the full cost of tuition. The tuition we do receive does not cover the cost of providing a quality Christian education so we depend on outside support.
Please consider sponsoring a child's tuition:
- $6500 Annually (one year's tuition)
- $2,100 Quarterly
- $700 monthly
If you would prefer to contribute your "treasure" in other ways, we are always looking for Grants & Donations to supplement tuition and enable us to serve more students.
