Annual Innovation Fund

The Annual Innovation Fund is The Main Street Academy's (TMSA) premier fundraiser and the most important annual giving opportunity at our school. As a public charter school, TMSA does not charge tuition and does not receive public additional funding through SPLOST that traditional public schools receive for capital improvement projects and ongoing facility maintenance. Thus, TMSA strongly relies on the generous support from our donors and community partners to help provide our students and teachers with exceptional educational and instructional experiences. All gifts, both large and small, help provide TMSA scholars with an exceptional learning experience and are greatly appreciated. All supporters of the TMSA community are encouraged to participate and make a tax-deductible donation to the Annual Innovation Fund between July 1 - June 30 each school year. The goal for the 2026 - 2027 Annual Innovation Goal is $100,000 and 100% parent participation.

Flexible Classrooms

TMSA is seeking your support in upgrading our outdated classroom learning spaces to flexible learning environments. The intent behind flexible classrooms/studios is to provide both formal and informal learning experiences that allow the classroom to be easily transformed based on the lessons or activities that are taking place within the learning environment. Flexible learning environments foster growth while allowing students to have additional independent decision-making abilities. As student collaboration continues to be a pillar in the learning process; flexible classroom learning environments allow teachers to take on the role of facilitator, while students collaborate and explore learning at their own comfort levels. As such, TMSA is seeking the assistance of sponsors to expand flexible learning spaces from TMSA’s Innovation Center to every classroom on campus. TMSA has 47 classrooms that will need to be transformed.

Total Cost: $17,000 per classroom/learning studio

*Donations in lesser increments are accepted
