Following are questions that parents
and alumnae/i ask most often when they contact the Alumnae/i
and Development Office.
A. We
would love to help you keep in touch.
- Please contact Mary Ryan '00, Director of Alumnae/i Relations, at 914-479-6433 or mryan@themastersschool.com, with any specific questions about getting in touch with your classmates.
- If you want to contact all of your
classmates, place a notice in the “Class Notes”
section of The Bulletin. Please contact Mary Ryan '00 for further information.
- To get in touch with a particular
classmate, simply mail a letter to: Classmate’s
Name, Class Year, c/o The Masters School, Alumnae/i
and Development Office, 49 Clinton Avenue, Dobbs Ferry,
NY 10522, and we will pass it along for you, if we
have a current address.
A. We appreciate your thoughtfulness! There are several ways to make a gift:

or you may view and print out instructions here. It’s
easy to do, and if the gift is appreciated securities,
you will also save on capital gains taxes. It is essential

A. Please check out our calendar
of events. It’s updated regularly!
A. The Annual Fund is essential to The Masters School.
It is a fund that helps support our operating budget and bridges the gap between tuition revenue and the actual costs per student incurred by the School. So, for example, your gift could provide
tuition assistance for outstanding students who have
financial need, update computers and purchase library books, or provide unique enrichment
activities, such as special events with renowned authors and musicians. for more information, please contact Audrey Jensen, Director of Annual Fund, at 914-479-6576 or audreyjensen@themastersschool.com.
A. Yes, please! Thank you for your foresight and generosity.
Please call us, as we have a legacy organization, known
as The Estherwood Society, with special benefits to thank you and your family members. Please contact Linda Smith-Shearer, director of planned giving, at 914-409-1015 or lsmithshearer@themastersschool.com.
A. Many companies have a policy to match their employees’
contributions, some at double or triple the
amount of the original gift. Check with your human resources department
or website. If you are still unsure, call us at 914-479-6576
and we will make every effort to find out for you.
A. Okay, this question has never actually been asked,
but we like to believe our students are thinking it.
There are many naming opportunities available, especially
within our new buildings. Dedicating a building is clearly
one of the most significant and permanent ways you can
pay tribute to a loved one or celebrate your own life, but there are other meaningful ways to make a significant difference as well, such as a named scholarship fund or a faculty chair. We welcome all inquiries!
Call 914-479-6575 for details and a written prospectus.
