Thank you! Thank you! Thanks to everyone's support and contributions, nearly $2.4 million in Kiddo! programs will be fully funded for the school year!* This includes all the art and music teachers, all the drama, dance and poetry specialists plus every classroom and library and the technology support staff! That is more than 60 people dedicated to your children's education that would not be in our schools without your support.

These days it truly takes the entire community to support our schools. Our parents are key as more than 80% of funding comes from our parent community. The other 20% comes from our greater community including local businesses, parent alumni and grandparents.
