We held an online fundraiser last May to raise money for Science Camp – a number of schools across the district had not raised enough money to pay for science camp that their fifth graders had already attended! We matched all funds up to $5000 raised, and were able to write the district a check for $8400 last June to cover much of the cost. We’re happy to have helped students have this formative experience, even in a small way.
If you would like to donate to cover costs for field trips, science camp, art books, or other things this year, consider heading over to our donation page and making a small donation. Any amount is appreciated and makes a difference!

Huge thanks to Synopsis! They donated $2500 to our Science Camp fundraiser last spring, earmarked specifically for 5th grade students from San Miguel. Covering science camp funds is always difficult for the title 1 schools, and San Miguel was especially short last year. This was part of our overall science camp fundraiser last spring, and it wouldn’t have been as successful without them.
