This Giving Tuesday, we’re celebrating families who give back and the reasons that inspire their generosity. Read why the Kasraee family chooses to give.

"We chose Cicero because it represents much more than academics-it’s a community built around character, integrity, and genuine intellectual curiosity. While we know the classical curriculum is challenging, that’s exactly what makes it so valuable. Our family has stayed at Cicero because we’ve seen how it shapes not only strong students, but thoughtful, kind, and disciplined young people. The teachers truly care, and the environment fosters a love of learning that extends beyond the classroom. We’ve witnessed firsthand the impact of Great Hearts’ mission. The education our children receive at Cicero is deeply personal and transformative, and we want to ensure that experience continues for all families, regardless of financial means. Supporting the Community Investment and Tax Credit campaigns is our way of saying “thank you” for the daily dedication of the faculty and leadership, and investing in the kind of future we believe in-one grounded in virtue and excellence."
