Donate to TEP

TEP is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 and accepts tax deductible contributions.

In contrast to most charter schools, TEP does NOT solicit donations for general operating expenses. This is because a central feature of TEP’s mission is to demonstrate that schools can make a radical investment in teacher equity by reallocating existing public funding.

The only area for which TEP solicits donations is the cost of its school facility, since, in contrast to traditional public schools which receive a free public facility, New York State charter schools typically must pay for their own school facility.

TEP will occupy a leased "incubation" facility in Washington Heights for its first two years of operation - the 2009-10 and 2010-11 school years. Learn more about TEP's incubation facility.

TEP anticipates occupying a new permanent school facility beginning in the 2011-12 school year (and for many years thereafter). Learn more about the construction of TEP's permanent school facility in Washington Heights (scheduled for completion in 2011).
