ANNUAL REPORT 2024–2025

FROM THE HEAD
_U6A5861_Bentley_Hiller-_04132026_paigegreen_SMALL.jpg

LETTER FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL AND THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Dear Bentley Community,

 

Philanthropy plays a vital role in sustaining and strengthening everything that makes Bentley School the vibrant and transformative place it is: our exceptional teachers, dynamic programs, and inclusive community.

 

During the 2024–25 school year, the community came together to raise more than $900,000 for the Annual Fund in support of our School's academic and co-curricular programs, while the Gala raised nearly $335,000 for faculty professional development and student financial aid. Together, these efforts resulted in more than $1.2 million raised to advance excellence at Bentley, enabling dozens of teachers to attend numerous academic workshops as well as state and national conferences, allowing the School to distribute assistance to more than 180 deserving Bentley students, and expanding our prestigious program to include increased experiential hands-on learning, trips beyond our campuses, and more.   

 

Cultivating a culture of giving, combined with strong community connections, is essential to Bentley's continued evolution, providing us with the means to build, innovate, and thrive. We are so grateful for the commitment and dedication of our devoted faculty and staff, tireless trustees and BPA volunteers, generous families, and proud alumni—each of you has played a vital role in making Bentley an even more impactful place for the hundreds of students who come here.

 

With the implementation of Bentley’s new Strategic Plan, we look ahead to an exciting new era for our School. By continuing to foster a culture of philanthropy, we will strengthen the future of Bentley and with it, the future of every one of our students. 

 

With Appreciation,

Christie Moncharmont
Head of School

“Supporting Bentley has been a major priority for our family because it offers a learning environment where our children are truly seen and supported as individuals, rather than shaped into a single mold. It is a place where their unique strengths and needs are recognized and nurtured, allowing them to grow with confidence and authenticity.”

– John Fulbrook and Catherine Wragg,
   Parents of Emma (Class of 2028) and
   Elizabeth (Class of 2025)

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CLASS OF 2025!

From institutions like Bates, Harvard, and Swarthmore to UCLA, Rice, and the University of Wisconsin, the 78 members of the Class of 2025 earned 503 offers of admission to 209 colleges and universities, enrolling at 52 different institutions.

 

The Class of 2025 saw 28 graduates remain in California for college, while 45 went out of state. Meanwhile, four are attending universities outside the US—two in Canada and two in the UK, and one graduate is currently serving in the military.

SENIOR CLASS GIFT

 

Support for the 2025 Senior Class Gift was spearheaded by Sonia Grover (Joss '25). We are deeply grateful for her efforts in bringing together the families of the Class of 2025 to collaborate on a meaningful gift to convey their appreciation for Bentley and leave a lasting legacy on our Lafayette campus.

 

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the installation of the state-of-the-art water fountain and bottle-filling station in The Commons. This thoughtful and practical addition has already become an integral part of daily life for our community, and we are so appreciative.

“I choose to donate to the Annual Fund because I have seen firsthand the difference it makes. My children benefited from the generosity of other families who gave with open hearts, often without realizing the lasting impact they were creating. Their kindness helped shape opportunities and opened doors that continue to influence my children’s future. Giving back is my way of honoring that generosity and helping ensure that other students can dream, grow, and succeed just as mine have.”

Supporters

We share the 2024–2025 Annual Report to recognize and honor our donors—parents, trustees, alumni, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends—who have generously contributed to Bentley School. Our continued growth and success rest on our ability to maintain a balance of prudent financial management while continuing to enhance programs and activities.

 

Throughout our 100+ year history, Bentley has continued to thrive because of the extraordinary philanthropy and deep-rooted commitment of our community. Your support of the Annual Fund not only enhances our core academic programs, it also enriches student life, supports small class sizes, offers robust professional development opportunities for our teachers, enables annual facility enhancements, and strengthens our community. We are thankful for every gift, no matter the size, and we know that an institution flourishes when the entire community feels invested in and responsible for its success.

 

​The following report recognizes gifts made between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025. We apologize for any inadvertent omissions. 

 

We are so grateful to every member of our community who has contributed to the 2025–2026 Annual Fund so far this year, and gifts may be made through the close of the current fiscal year on June 30, 2026. Our Annual Report for 2025–2026 will be published in late fall 2026. Thank you in advance for your support! 

Annual Fund 2024–2025

Bentley's Annual Fund provides critical support that benefits every member of the Bentley community, particularly our dedicated faculty and talented students. Your generosity allows us to achieve a level of excellence in our curriculum, programs, and facilities that would not be possible without your support. 

Thanks to the generosity of our community, faculty participated in various professional development opportunities this year and we were able to maintain and improve financial aid. Gifts to the Annual Fund also helped the School prioritize campus improvements and the hiring of additional student support faculty.
