Back then, school funding was severely limited, and private donations were crucial for providing our children with a quality education. Today, our robust public schools are a cornerstone of our lively and dynamic community, yet the necessity for local support to supplement state funding remains as vital as ever. Despite increases in the education budget over the years, our public schools still fall short of the funding needed to deliver an exceptional, comprehensive education that meets our students' needs. With the help of our dedi- cated supporters like you, we have built a flourishing educational environment that paves the way for success for all learners, guaranteeing that every child's potential is nurtured and celebrated.
