FUNDRAISERS
Each year will hold our annual Jogathon encouraging movement and community. This is our school's largest fundraiser of the year, and all money raised goes toward the next year’s programs, field trips, and on-campus improvement projects.
UNIFORMS
The PTA is responsible for designing, storing, and filling orders for school uniforms. We try to keep costs as low as possible, but any minor profits go back to school programs and needs.
LANGUAGE / READING
Each year we host book fairs to build interest in books and to inspire a love of reading. We aim to have at least one all Spanish book fair to support our immersion program. Funds from our book fairs are used to purchase new books for our library.
