The Noble Network of Charter Schools raises money to support academic and back office operations for Noble Street Charter School. A large group of local and national investors has invested in the Noble Network’s effort to open more campuses of Noble Street Charter School. Their partnership and support of Noble Street’s vision is laudable, and we thank them for their commitment to education reform in Chicago and beyond. If you’re interested in naming a new Noble campus or contributing to the replication effort, please contact Rachel Kramer via email or at 312.265.9925, Ext. 4324.
Grants from corporations and foundations support Noble Street’s general operations or particular programs such as student assessment, after-school programs and music.

If you are a corporation or foundation interested in supporting the Network's replication effort, or costs for annual operations at Noble Street Charter School or a particular campus or program, please contact Rachel Kramer by email or at 312.265.9925, Ext. 4324.
As a public school, Noble Street Charter School does receive public funding, but like most charter schools nationwide, this funding is not equivalent to funds provided to traditional public schools. Noble Street depends on the generosity of foundation, corporate and individual donors to cover this funding shortfall and also to enable the school to provide enhancements such as a longer school day and school year, healthier meals, field trips to colleges and universities and at least eight hours of tutoring at each campus each week. These needs are ongoing. Please contact Rachel Kramer via email or at 312-265-9925, Ext. 4324, if you are interested in contributing toward these ongoing needs.
