Fundraising

Fundraising is a vital part of our school's success, enabling us to provide the best possible educational experience for our children. The funds raised directly support a variety of programs, resources, and activities that enhance our students' learning and growth. Our goal this year is to raise $15,000, and with the help of our community, we are confident we can achieve this. One exciting project we plan to use a portion of funds on is planting trees around the playground, which will offer more shade and privacy for our children.
