Give to the Max Day 2025 is a wonderful opportunity to support Great Oaks Academy as we continue our journey toward becoming a full K–12 classical education community. Thanks to generous giving last year, we expanded to our new Eagan campus—creating a dedicated home for our middle and high school students and building a strong foundation for the future. This milestone reflects the heart of our mission: to cultivate wonder, wisdom, and virtue in every student.
As a public charter school, Great Oaks does not receive local tax levy funding like traditional district schools. That means every classroom, teacher, and program depends on state per-pupil funding and the generosity of our community. Now, as we operate across two campuses—K–5 in Farmington and 5–12 in Eagan—we are in a pivotal stage of growth. Community support is essential to bridge a $200,000 funding gap and ensure our students continue to flourish. Every donation directly supports teachers, curriculum, enrichment programs, and vibrant learning spaces. If each Great Oaks family committed to a recurring gift of $50 per month, we will meet our goal and strengthen our school for years to come. Whether you’re a Great Oaks family or a friend of our school, your gift helps sustain an environment rooted in excellence, joy, and community for all students.
