Our Future...

While the endowment from the Capital Campaign subsidizes the operations of our building to keep our parent fees affordable, it will not cover the costs of future needs and expanded programs that are critical to the success of NDS.

Within the years 2009-2010, the Annual Campaign will achieve the following goals:

1. Provide our professional, dedicated staff with livable salaries and benefits

• Many of our core staff have been with us for over a decade
• The average wage for our employees is $11.00 per hour

2. Create a Scholarship Program for qualified families

                   Nearly one third of the NDS families qualify for

         state assistance.  The cost for one child to attend is

3.  Cost for Child care:

• Children ages 36 months and up is $150.00 per week Children ages six weeks to 36 months is $185.00 per week
• Our after-school program 5 years to 12 years is $67.50 per week, or 13.50 per day.
