We have $16,000 in extra funds brought in this school year, and we need community input in regard to allocating the money. Please note, the original amount shared on 5/12/2025 was $12,000, but as of 5/13/2025, we are increasing the special allocation amount to $16,000, as some previously allocated funds are available for redistribution.

You must RSVP, though. Additional information will be sent to you after you RSVP.
