Support Us By Donating
Teachers and school leaders often see the need for academic resources, enrichments and educational tools that cannot be funded by the school district. The Foundation is there to provide those resources for our students and minimize those shortfalls. Throughout the year, we organize a variety of fundraising events aimed at supporting our school.
The Campaign Monarch in October being the first of school year and the largest one, aiming to cover the big portion of yearly expected expenses.
In February, the Teacher Time Auction offers bidders valuable sessions with educators, providing children with unique experiences.
In April, the Fun Run sees children of all grades join a fun race to raise funds.
2025 - 2026 Funding Goals
The 2025 - 2026 budget necessary to support these initiatives and ensure our children’s success is currently $300,000.
