What Community Day School does
Mission
At Community Day School, we are committed to raising proud jews, confident leaders, and accomplished learners who value excellence and prioritize community. As educators, administrators, and staff, we hold ourselves to the highest ethical and professional standards to reflect the sacred mission of our school and the trust placed in us by our families, students, and the broader jewish community.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Community Day School is a nurturing, academically excellent jewish day school for the 21st century. From our early childhood program through middle school, we inspire our students to love learning through innovative teaching methods and hands-on discovery. Community Day School is a welcoming community where pittsburgh families who span the spectrum of jewish belief and practice can learn and connect along with their children. As our students grow in knowledge from preschool through 8th grade, they grow as people - finding their passions, embracing their jewish identities, and preparing for successful and meaningful lives. There were 282 students enrolled during the 2024-2025 school year in early childhood through grade 8.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $8.6M to $9.9M (+16%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 1% · 2018 0% · 2019 0% · 2020 12% · 2021 11% · 2022 18%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 7 funders to 11 funders, grant income rose $218k → $1.2M.
7 of 24 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 11% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $13M from 6 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Pittsburgh Jewish Educational Improvement Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL raised.
From the IRS filings of COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 41% of grant income and the top three 66%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
58% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 53% · 2018 57% · 2019 45% · 2020 37% · 2021 47% · 2022 45% · 2023 71% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
33% of COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 71% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
92% of COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL's grant income comes from Pennsylvania funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $502k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
