2023 Keith Forever Fund

As a parent, alum or friend of Keith Country Day School, we don’t often think about all of the things that contribute to the wonderful feeling of “family” at Keith. But security is not an afterthought. Keith School is purposeful in creating a secure environment for our students, faculty, and staff. Current safety measures include limiting and monitoring entry points; managing visitor access; securing the campus perimeter; regularly training and practicing emergency protocols; and so much more.

There have been many technology advancements in school security and monitoring over the past several years. At Keith School, we want to be at the forefront of campus safety and security. For this year’s Forever Keith campaign, we want to ensure this secure and nurturing environment continues and we are asking for your support.

Some safety enhancements include:

  • Installation of an alarm system to support improved emergency response time;
  • Upgrading to a key fob lock system for all entryways and classrooms; and
  • Development of a uniform room and door numbering system to accurately direct first responders.

Our students’ wellbeing is always our top priority. Please help us meet our goal of $75,000 to allow us to provide the most secure and nurturing environment now and for years into the future. We’re thrilled to tell you that each member of our awesome staff/faculty and the entire Board of Trustees has committed individual funds to support the 2023 Forever Keith Fund.

There are three easy ways to give for your convenience:

We ask that you continue to invest in our wonderful school and in the bright future of our exceptional students.
