The Annual Fund Campaign

The Stanford Online High School Annual Fund is the cornerstone of our community’s giving. Each year, contributions from families, alumni, instructors, staff, and friends directly strengthen every aspect of the Stanford OHS experience, supporting the people, programs, and opportunities that make our school exceptional.

This year, we celebrate an incredible milestone, 20 years of Stanford Online High School. From our founding in 2006 as a bold experiment in online education, to today’s thriving global community, Stanford OHS has always been about more than academics. It’s about connection, curiosity, and the shared pursuit of knowledge that unites our students, families, staff, and alumni around the world.

Help Us Say "Yes!"

Annual Fund gifts provide flexible resources that allow Stanford OHS to meet emerging needs, invest in new ideas, and ensure that every student benefits from a vibrant, connected, and forward-thinking learning environment.

Every dollar you give enriches student experience and enables the school to say “Yes!” to new opportunities. Together, we sustain the spirit of innovation and collaboration that has defined Stanford OHS for 20 years and counting.
