Description

Our organization's primary fundraiser of the year is our Falcon Faire. It features a week-long virtual auction that culminates in an on-campus festival where the auction items are displayed in-person for final bidding. Families also enjoy games, activities, and food. The in-person event lasts for 4 hours and is attended by 600-800 people. Our school serves over 1,200 students whose families will have the chance to view our auction and all the companies who donated to make it possible.


The mission of Great Hearts Forest Heights, a public charter school, is to foster great-hearted students by educating the whole person in truth, goodness and beauty. Great Hearts Forest Heights offers a tuition-free, academically rigorous, classical liberal arts K-10 education. The Parent Service Organization supports the school by providing volunteers, building community through on and off-campus events, and by raising money to buy items that enhance our children's educational experience. 


The PSO has previously purchased shelves and books for the elementary school library, funded an outdoor learning space, purchased canopies for the playground, provided meals for teachers, and redecorated the teacher break room. This year, we have a new middle/high school library that we want to provide books for. We also have other projects and service opportunities that arise throughout the year. Thank you for your support of our school.
