Which House Will Win? Building Together with Dignity and School Spirit

At The Kessler School, every student’s dignity matters. Every learner is valued, respected, and given the tools to thrive in the classroom, on field trips, and within the House system that builds pride and belonging.

This North Texas Giving Day, you can strengthen that vision while cheering on your House in our annual competition. The House with the most donors wins, but every gift fuels experiences that honor each child’s value and curiosity.

Why Give on NTXGD

Your gift makes dignity tangible through experiences that shape the whole child:

  • $50 provides art supplies for a semester

  • $250 funds House activities for a month

  • $500 supports outdoor education experiences for a class

Every gift counts toward your House total, whether it is $25 or $250.

The House Competition

The House system is about more than rivalry. It is about community and belonging. When you give, your House climbs the leaderboard. At the end of the day, one House will earn bragging rights, but every student wins when dignity is at the heart of learning.

Last Year’s Impact

In 2024, NTXGD gifts made a visible difference. Together, we provided science kits that sparked exploration, teacher training rooted in respect and dignity, and House activities that built community across grades.

This year, we are building on that momentum with new priorities: hands-on learning tools, outdoor education, STEAM resources, and professional development for teachers.

Our Curriculum Excellence

At The Kessler School, we use Eureka Math for our K-7 mathematics program, which prides itself on inspiring "aha moments and joyful connections" through math skills and knowledge. This approach ensures every student experiences the joy of mathematical discovery while building strong foundational skills.

Your gift funds learning tools, outdoor education, House activities, and teacher training that affirm every student’s dignity.

Make your gift today through our NTXGD page, boost your House’s total, and help create a culture where every student is seen, valued, and celebrated.

Mission

Our mission is to provide an engaging, student-centered education in a nurturing and inclusive environment, fostering a love of learning, critical thinking, and personal growth.

At The Kessler School, we offer an UNLIMITED educational experience that nurtures every aspect of a child's development. Our curriculum follows the highest academic standards, including the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for language arts and math, and the Texas Essential Knowledge & Skills (TEKS) for science and social studies.

We integrate innovative programs like our STEAM Lab, in partnership with Techie Factory, and our fine arts curriculum through collaborations with Oil and Cotton and BOCO Music & Dance. These opportunities provide hands-on learning in technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics.

Our focus on Social Emotional Learning (SEL) helps students develop empathy, resilience, and teamwork, creating a joyful and inclusive environment. With small class sizes and personalized attention, TKS prepares students for both academic and personal success.
