This is where your money will go:
1. Our military model, key to the success of NVMI students, requires an additional $2,500, bringing the total to $12,500 per student, which is still at the low end of the state’s averages. We currently have 602 Students along with a WAITING LIST!
2. To be specific, NVMI’s additional annual costs per student include:
a. $550 for uniforms, military awards, decorations, accouterments that encourage excellence
b. $675 in bus transportation to and from NVMI and other school competitions
c. $385 for intensive academic supports and credit recovery
d. $345 in mental health and counseling supports
e. $190 in intramural/interscholastic athletic supplies and services outside the typical school
f. $365 in outdoor education experiences (backpacking, summer camps, survival training)
3. NVMI’s school motto says it all: “per ardua, ad astra”-- with hard work the stars. We are asking for your support now so we can continue to serve our students living in the San Fernando Valley who are poor; at-risk; some homeless; some living in foster care; and more than 20% who qualify for special education. The one common thread that runs through our student body is their efforts to find a way out of the crime and gangs that threaten their lives.

b. Athletics -
