Description

Our all-school Pumpkin Carnival and Silent Auction will take place on Saturday, October 28, 2023. Our goal is to raise $15,000 through community and business sponsorships, the sale of game tickets, raffle prizes and silent auction purchases. Instead of asking students to sell items, we have opted for this fundraiser to support a wide variety of education enrichment including artist in residence program for all 5th/6th graders, family community events, teacher appreciation week, cultural ambassadors from abroad, new books, field trips, art supplies, school plays/assemblies, technology assistance, maker space materials, and teacher grants. Our partners will be recognized in a variety of ways including signage, social media, and highlights in our school’s newsletter. This event typically draws more than 500 people! Any and all support is greatly appreciated.

Description of our unique school:

Little Canada Elementary has a "two schools, one community" model. We have 50% Spanish-speaking families in our Spanish immersion school as well as an array of cultures in both our immersion and neighborhood schools. We are a Title 1 school, so your donations help us support the school without asking students to sell items. Thank you for considering supporting our wonderful community!
