Your Contribution Makes a Direct Impact

Our school offers several donation options to give families, alumni, and community partners the flexibility to support what matters most to them:

Project-Based Donations

Parents, guardians, and organizations may choose to donate directly to a specific project at our school.
These may include:

• Technology upgrades
• Arts and music initiatives
• Library and literacy projects
• Sports and wellness programs
• Schoolyard or playground improvements

Project donations ensure your gift goes exactly where you want it to.

General School Donations

A general donation allows the school to direct funds to the areas of greatest need, such as:

• Classroom resources
• Student support services

• Equipment replacement
• Special events and learning opportunities

General donations give the school flexibility to respond quickly and effectively to ongoing priorities.
