Classroom Donation ~$30.00
Each classroom parent requests a one-time donation at the beginning of each year. This donation allows the classroom parent to purchase teacher gifts (Christmas and year-end), teacher’s aide gifts, and a class project to donate to the annual auction.
Field Trips
Field trips vary in fees from grade to grade and trip to trip. Some are free, others come with minimal cost, while a few have $25-$30 fees. Our educators have found that the academic value of these programs always proves to be well worth the cost. Parents will receive information on these trips at the beginning of each school year.
Outdoor Education Fee (6th Grade) ~$200.00
This optional program takes our sixth graders to a camp with a science-based curriculum in the San Bernardino Mountains for four days and three nights. Class fundraising efforts can offset each student’s obligation.
Washington D.C. Trip (8th Grade) ~$2000.00
Eighth grade students have the opportunity to travel to Washington D.C. with their teacher and adult chaperones each spring. This optional program, in its sixth year, takes our eighth grade students to our nation’s capital for seven days. The cost can be offset greatly by class fundraising throughout the year.
