Endowment & Special Funds

It is essential that we raise endowment dollars to undergird the school's financial foundation by providing critical fiscal resources for the future.
 
Whether it is in creating new and restricted funds for specific areas, such as faculty professional development or middle income scholarships, or by contributing to those already in place, continuing to strengthen our endowment today is an investment in Shore and in its future students.

A Graduation Tradition: The Parents of Graduates Fund

In 1997, the Parents of Graduates (POG) Fund was developed to acknowledge faculty dedication to educational, artistic, athletic, and personal growth. POG is a professional growth experience honoring our faculty. Shore faculty members submit proposals for a professional growth experience that will ultimately allow them to become more innovative in their teaching.  The faculty recipient is chosen by lottery and is awarded funding to complete his/her program.  Previous award winners have investigated Incan ruins, traveled across the United States, explored literary sites across England, and wandered through the Black Caves of Spain.
 
For more information about Shore’s Parents of Graduates Program, please contact the Advancement Office.

Walter Morris, 2011 POG recipient, Haiti

“One morning late in the first week, we met the woman whose family would be moving into the house we were finishing. Through an interpreter she expressed her appreciation and said that she would pray for us. This was one of many times that I was reminded of how fortunate I am. It was a gratifying, humbling encounter.”
