SCEF and PTA: Supporting Excellence in San Carlos Schools

The San Carlos Education Foundation (SCEF) was proud to present checks to each school PTA and to San Carlos Charter School in October under the terms of a consolidated fundraising Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to support programs that benefit all students. This agreement puts most school fundraising efforts under the SCEF umbrella. SCEF and PTA leaders believe that this efficient model provides clarity and simplicity to donors. At the same time, it frees the PTA and SCC volunteers to focus on their core community-building mission.

Funds raised last year are supporting the following educator positions and programs SCEF has traditionally supported:

• Counselors and Social Emotion Development programs

• Library Services at every school

• Elementary PE and Music

• Middle School Electives

• Technology staff, devices and applications

• STEM supplies and materials and professional development

• Principal Fund for each campus

• Field Trips

• After School Sports

AND NOW Support for your PTA

• Teacher Grants—Classroom Supplies and Materials

• Art programs

• Library Books

• Community building and DEIB events and celebrations

• Staff Appreciation

• Assemblies

• And more!

The many school site activities you are enjoying this school year are being administered by your PTA volunteers and funded by your donations to SCEF. To make a donation to help maintain these programs and positions, visit www.scefkids.org/ways-to-give.
