Alta Vista Elementary QuaranTeam Mask Fundraiser

The AVHSC typically holds fundraising activities at the beginning of the school year but given that in-person school was placed on hold because of Covid-19, the Annual Membership Drive and other events were also placed on hold.

AVHSC funds numerous enrichment programs, such as Art, Clay, Music, PE, Project Cornerstone, assemblies, field trips, and more. We also supply the funds to purchase technology, educational subscriptions, classroom supplies, and teacher needs not otherwise provided by the District.

Although Covid-19 placed limitations on in-person school activities, the AVHSC funded virtual programs this year. Now that the campus is re-opening, we anticipate an increase in HSC expenses as in-person activities safely resume.

As we look towards next school year, with a more “normal” template, we want to ensure that we have funds to resume programs as we have in previous years. With this fundraiser, the AVHSC hopes to use your donations to off-set the costs of a Music Teacher, P.E. Teacher, and an extra crossing guard for the 2021-22 school year. These three expenses are NOT covered by the yearly Consolidate Class Pledge (CCP) that is normally collected from families at the beginning of the year during the Annual Membership Drive. In the past, the Walk-a-Thon was our largest on-campus fundraising event each year. Covid-19 restrictions have caused the AVHSC to reimagine how we fundraise for our school, which means we may not have our yearly Walk-a-thon in October.
