It was so much fun to greet families at student conferences this week. Gratitude to everyone for all the beautiful birthday balloon messages for Thornton Creek's 50th Birthday. Thank you for stopping by to learn more about our Annual Appeal fundraiser. Let's keep up the great work to support our school!

Thank you to everyone that has already donated to help us meet our $150,000 goal!

Your past generous donations have supported Expeditionary Learning activities and fees, academic support (e.g. interventionists), library and art materials, and building and emergency supplies.

Our goal is 100% participation. An average donation of $400 per student will reach our goal. We appreciate gifts of any amount, whatever is meaningful for your family. We’ve still got a long way to go, please consider donating today!

Employer matching helps us reach our goal. If you're not sure if your employer matches or how to access the match, please email fundraising@thorntoncreekparentgroup.org and we'll work with you to find the information.

Also, check out our website's fundraising page here for more details.

December 16 7:30 - 8:30 PM (virtual)

Before the year's end, please join TCPG leaders for a Parent to Parent Conversation.

We will have time for information sharing, hearing your questions, providing a fundraising update, and to take a vote on updated TCPG Articles of Incorporation.
