Many families have asked how they can support our school, and we’re grateful for that continued partnership. One way is through direct donations. Click here for the donations link and funds collected will go directly toward instructional resources for students—this includes materials teachers need to strengthen learning and improvements around the building that directly support student growth.

In mid-October, our PTA will also begin their first fundraiser of the year, which is another great way to help our students and staff.

If anyone would like to support our school community, you will find links to teacher wishlists at the link below.

Thank you for your ongoing support and trust, it makes a true difference for our students.
