Head of School Circle

The Impact of Giving: Head of School Circle members are Sycamore champions. Their support helps sustain a vibrant and dynamic learning environment, fostering curiosity, innovation, and excellence among students.

Every great school depends on the generosity of those who believe in its mission. At Sycamore, philanthropy is more than just giving. It is an investment in the bright futures of the students in our care. The Head of School Circle, Sycamore’s annual leadership giving society, is a testament to the commitment of our most generous supporters.

“I am deeply appreciative of all of the support from our families, alumni, faculty, staff, and others,” says John Huber, Sycamore’s Head of School. “The greater Sycamore community is incredible. The Head of School Circle recognizes those who are able to make a leadership commitment to Sycamore, and I am thankful to them for their devotion and generosity. My family and I have chosen to make Sycamore our top philanthropic priority. I am so pleased to see the many families join me to make such a commitment to the benefit of Sycamore students.”

Head of School Circle donors help fund critical operational expenses and play a vital role in fostering the school’s mission. Their generosity ensures that students have access to state-of-the-art technology, enriching academic and athletic programs, inspiring field trips, distinguished guest speakers, and financial assistance for families in need.

“We realize that not all parents, grandparents, graduates, and friends can give at the Head of School Circle level,” Jim Wood, Sycamore School’s Director of Advancement says. “Gifts of all sizes remain appreciated and are critical for Sycamore's success, but we hope those who are able will consider this leadership opportunity.
