Donation Requests

Thank you to everyone who has already donated—our families are directly benefiting from your incredible generosity! We are currently accepting donations to support our students throughout the school day and to assist families in our school community. If you are able to help, please drop off items at the main office. Thank you for your generosity!

  • Clothing: Pants (sizes 5, 6, and 7), socks, new underwear (size 5/6), and jackets/sweatshirts (all kids' sizes). Gently used is great!

  • Gift Cards: We are collecting gift card donations to distribute directly to families in our school community who are in need (WinCo Family Friendly cards are preferred).

Help us bring Number Corner to 1st and 2nd grade

Our Kindergarteners are already using Number Corner, a hands-on math program that builds number sense, patterns, and problem-solving through daily routines. The results have been strong. Students are engaged, confident, and growing as mathematicians.

Now we want to keep that momentum going. We're raising $1,100 to bring Number Corner to our 1st and 2nd graders, so the learning that starts in Kindergarten can keep building through the primary grades.

Your gift helps us:

  • Extend a proven math tool beyond Kindergarten
  • Give our youngest learners a consistent, connected math experience
  • Strengthen the foundation they'll rely on in the years ahead

Every contribution counts. Even $10 or $25 moves us closer to the goal.
