Planned Giving

The name 1891 was chosen to honor the year of the first graduating class at Highlands High School, symbolizing a long-standing Tradition of Academic Excellence that has defined Fort Thomas Independent Schools for generations. This enduring legacy offers a meaningful opportunity to give back. Many people believe they must choose between leaving a gift to their family or supporting a cause they care about— but you can do both. In fact, some charitable gifts may reduce inheritance taxes, ultimately benefiting your loved ones. More importantly, such giving sets a powerful example of generosity and community spirit. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps sustain this tradition, and there is no minimum required to join.
