We are confident that TOGETHER we can ensure Lafayette will continue to thrive and offer a stellar learning experience for all. We have a clear path forward.
By coming together next month for our annual fundraising gala on April 26, we intend to:
- Lock up a world class STEAM program
- Provide extra classroom support in the face of teacher reductions by hiring one part-time English Language Development (ELD) educator and 2 full-time paraeducators
- Fund a part-time, student-facing Assistant Principal who will have dedicated daily classroom hours
- Offset General Supplies cuts and support the Health Access Program at our sister school, Sanchez Elementary
Basically, we are COMMITTED to making sure every kid has what they need to succeed next year. And now we need YOUR help to make this happen. We've set an ambitious fundraising target of $250k. We did it last year, and we can do it again!
HERE'S HOW YOU HELP:
- BUY YOUR GALA TICKETS NOW! Early Bird tickets are only $50!! (Prices go up on April1.)
- Donate auction items (including count-me-ins) for the gala
Let's Go Dolphins!
