Bradford Family

"When our family thinks about the future of our community, we're inspired to support the Carmel Education Foundation because we've seen firsthand how their programs develop character alongside academics. We believe investing in today's students - ensuring they lead with dignity, respect, and integrity - is one of the most meaningful ways we can shape tomorrow's leaders."

Viaches Family

"The Carmel Clay School system is one of the best in the country. We are consistently at the top of the rankings not just in academics, but in program offerings, student satisfaction, diversity, and extra curricular activities and sports. As a family with two children in the district, I am constantly impressed by our schools and staff. My kids are thriving and, more importantly, they are happy.

I only recently discovered how much program and financial support the Carmel Education Foundation provides to CCS. Offering over 100 scholarships, entrepreneurial experiences, community programs, resources for families, and grants to students and staff, they are a major reason CCS is able to do what they do for our students. I feel lucky to be able to send my kids to this free, public school system and I am happy to support CEF in the great work they are doing for our kids and community."
