2026–2027 Sign-Up Party Fundraiser!

Get ready to build community, have a blast, and support our school all at the same time! Our annual Sign-Up Party fundraiser is officially kicking off, and we have a fantastic lineup of events waiting for you.

What is a Sign-Up Party?

Sign-Up Parties are unique, themed events hosted by amazing families within our school community. Rather than just making a standard donation, you get to buy a ticket to a specific social gathering, unique experience, or friendly competition. It is the ultimate way to mingle with other school families while raising money for our kids.

How It Works & How It Raises Money

Our wonderful hosts completely donate and pay for the cost of hosting their event. Because they absorb 100% of the party expenses, every single dollar from your ticket sale goes directly toward funding school programs, classroom resources, and student activities!

• For Our Hosts: As a huge thank you for your generosity in organizing and financing the event, hosts get to attend their own party for free without purchasing a ticket.
• For Our Attendees: Ticket sales will be open to all families from September 13th at 8:00 pm until September 27th, and the actual parties will take place throughout the school year. Simply browse the party list, grab your tickets, and mark your calendars!
