what your donations are used for:

100% of RFE donations go to the PTO. PTO funds are utilized as directed by the parents and PTO board in support of the mission of the PTO. PTO is essential to the livelihood of our community!

PTO dollars go toward the PTO-supported activities, student experiences, and classroom needs:

  • 7th and 8th grade retreats

  • Santa Shop

  • 8th Grade Breakfast

  • Community events

  • National Honor Society breakfast

  • Teacher Appreciation Week

  • St. Nick’s Day, All Saints Day medals

  • Ice cream social for new families

  • Stipend for parent parties

  • Stipend for classroom parties for room parents

  • Provide every teacher with a $300 classroom stipend

WHAT IS RACE FOR EDUCATION?

RFE is one of the biggest highlights of the year and a cherished Nativity tradition! 

Fundraising Goal: $40,000!

  • Age groups run for 30 minutes, getting as many laps as they can! Donations are not tied to the amount of laps, but a student in each class with the most is recognized for fun.

  • Leading up to race day, students ask for “race sponsorships,” in the form of donations via our campaign donation webpage.

  • Our secure payment processor is 99 Pledges. Please consider donating a “tip” to cover the transaction fees (3.49%, plus 49 cents per transaction).

How is Race for Education Different Than The Gala?

The school has two fundraising “buckets,” both essential to the operations and life of the school.

  • GALA: Bridges the Gap. The Gala helps fund the gap between tuition dollars and the actual cost to educate, as well as important capital improvement projects, like infrastructure and security upgrades.

  • PTO: Builds Culture. PTO dollars go toward the PTO-support activities (listed above), retreats, and classroom needs.
