Donor Matching Donations Up to $50,000 for School That Gives Students a

Voice in Their Education


Grapevine, TX, November 29, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Makarios Community School is the first and only
democratic free school in the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex. The school has received a promise from a
generous donor who will match funds up to $50,000 on #givingtuesday, November 29, 2016. Donations
will support an increase in staff salaries and benefit the students by providing scholarship funds,
playground clean up, and learning materials. Students and staff are giving back to the community by
organizing and managing a bake sale at Makarios Community School, located at 1105 West Wall Street
Grapevine, TX. Students will also be delivering homemade treats and visiting with senior citizens in the
community on #givingtuesday. We are so pleased that the students of Makarios give to the community.
Their goodies for grannies is a sweet gesture to show honor to seniors that have spent a lifetime serving
their own families, said Donella Cecrle, founder and administrator of Makarios Community School.
Makarios Community School is open to students ages 5 to 18 who travel from all parts of the DFW area.
Day-to-day operation of the school is run by the democratic process using Parliamentary procedure in the
weekly School Meeting and daily Judicial Committee. Students learn government processes, and gain
leadership and public speaking skills by participating in these foundational activities of Makarios
Community School. Students at Makarios Community School are learning democracy and leadership by
living it. Makarios Community School Mission Statement We believe all students are free to direct their
own education. We offer a community that provides the freedom and tools to pursue self-directed
learning. We strive to provide a safe and supportive environment for students to experience both failure
and success. Our mission is that students leave Makarios as lifelong learners with the confidence to make
choices in pursuit of their unique interests and goals. Visit www.makariosschool.com to learn more.
