Support Shelton Now and for the Future
Annual Giving Campaign
The 2012-2013 Annual Fund is underway!
The Annual Fund is conducted each year to provide funds for operational expenses not covered by tuition and fees. Giving to the Annual Fund is the first and most important way you can support Shelton. All gifts, no matter how large or small, support the educational needs of our students. Gifts to the Annual Fund directly benefit:
- Specialized classroom supplies so our students can engage in multi-sensory learning.
- Visual and Performing Arts and Athletic facilities so our students can perform in a state-of-the-art environment.
- Building maintenance so our students can learn and grow in an efficient, comfortable facility.
- Financial Aid for deserving students.
- Competitive salaries to retain and attract the brightest teachers.
Thank you for helping us provide a nurturing environment for each and every student!

The Delphi Society
Delphi is a small town in the mountains of Greece where the famous oracle of Apollo supposedly took place, announcing the future. It is a symbol for seeking to know and shape the future.
To honor those individuals who seek to shape the future of Shelton School, the Delphi Society was established in 2003. This Society recognizes and thanks supporters of Shelton who have created provisions in their wills or estate plans to benefit Shelton School and have informed the school of their commitments.
Society members are recognized each year in the school's Annual Report of Gifts, unless a member would prefer to be anonymous. If you are interested in learning more about the Society, please contact Theresa Bruno in the Development office at 972-774-1772 ext 2230 or by e-mail tbruno@shelton.org
