LCH Fund Drive: Facts and Figures

 

Back to LCH Fund Drive main page.

Where does the LCH donation money go?

Each year, your donations fund all of our PTA programs, enrichment programs (math acceleration, PE, multimedia, support for our gifted learners, music and art) and many other classroom needs. Beyond core instruction, our students enjoy regular lessons in specialized music, PE and multimedia instruction, led by credentialed teachers with a passion for what they do. Our kids’ classroom teachers then use this time for grade-level collaboration and professional development. Our PTA programs, like Green Team and Red Ribbon Week, also serve to give our kids a more well-rounded education.

Without your donations, our programs couldn’t exist. We need your support. To donate, please drop a check in the office or donate online via PayPal (service fees apply). Your donation is tax deductible.
