Make a Difference with DESEF!
Dear Disney Families,

DESEF supports funding for Walt Disney’s paraprofessionals (who help teachers and students), our TK/Kindergarten music program, Dragon Academy (academic intervention), Rainbow Room (social and emotional learning), STEM learning, and more. To run these programs, we raise funds over the year with the help of amazing parent volunteers.

We are currently looking for parent volunteers for the 2021-2022 school year. This will provide a wonderful opportunity to work with other parents and be involved in the decision making process.

If you would like to volunteer or know someone who is interested, please contact our President, Lauren Shimek at desedfoundation@comcast.net.
