01What it does

What White Rock Montessori Elementary School of the Good Samaritan Inc does

Mission

The organization's mission is to operate an elementary school and daycare program for children of working parents. Following the principles of Dr. Maria Montessori, the school provides a consistent framework for learning through the dynamic partnership of child, parent and teacher. Students are encouraged to develop a sense of personal and social responsibility and respect for themselves, others and the environment.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Operating since 1975, the school is among the first Montessori elementary programs in the nation and is recognized today as one of the top Montessori programs in Dallas, Texas. Operating on its own property since 1999, the school is located beside a creek, southeast of White Rock Lake, and includes an award-winning discovery garden and pond on wooded acreage which creates an outstanding outdoor learning environment. The school serves students in pre-kindergarten through grade 8. The school's academic program is based on an individualized, self-paced course of study in several academic disciplines including literature, algebra, history, foreign languages, visual and performing arts and botany. The school encourages students to develop skills in goal-setting, time management, independence and personal accountability. Classroom teachers have Montessori training credentials in addition to college degrees.

  2. The organization operates a "before-and-after-school" daycare program for approximately 60 children of working parents. Although secondary to the organization's primary educational purpose, daycare operations are important to a significant percentage of our students who have working parents. This service has run parallel to our primary service since the school's inception.

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. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2021 → 2022: the base held at 1 funder, grant income rose $9k → $12k.

2 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of WHITE ROCK MONTESSORI ELEMENTARY SCHOOL OF THE GOOD SAMARITAN INC’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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

100% 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 WHITE ROCK MONTESSORI ELEMENTARY SCHOOL OF THE GOOD SAMARITAN INC.

Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 100% · 2022 100% — broadly stable.

“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.

Where its funders are

100% of WHITE ROCK MONTESSORI ELEMENTARY SCHOOL OF THE GOOD SAMARITAN INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $46k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
