Your Donations Have Been Put to Work!

Donations have kept freshman class sizes down, provided after-school tutors, and Naviance college counseling for our juniors and seniors. They have provided time for teachers to share their best lessons with their colleagues. Donations have also delivered important every-day supplies like paper in the copiers, micropipettes in the labs, and paint in the studios.


As of January 23, 2012, CAF grants totaling $166,135 have been distributed for the 2011-12 school year. This is more than DOUBLE what we have ever been able to accomplish before!
