Yes, we do a lot of volunteer work and fundraising. Colorado ranks near the bottom in national school funding and the PTA works hard to make up that gap. General Funds are budgeted and approved in September. These funds are used to fund all the activities we mention below (and more!).

Our fundraising process from planning to spend is a simple, unobtrusive process: Plan fundraising event, Hold fundraising event and finally, Spend funds raised.

We would love to have every family participate in every event or fundraising opportunity. BUT we understand that is unrealistic and may not be what works best for your family. The gift of time is just as important as financial contributions. PTA helps organize a variety of events over the school year, all of which require staffing. Give one to three hours a year, or more!
