What is it?
The Eckstein Annual Campaign raises money for our Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) and is totally parent-funded. The entire yearly budget comes from you.
Where does the money go?
The PTSA uses the money to pay for extras our kids need, but the school district doesn’t provide. Things like beakers for science; books for the library; Field Day; a new sound system for the auditorium; resources for math, language arts and social studies; after school programs; coaching staff for sports; up-to-date technology; COVID-19 relief and so much more! In 2020 we will be directing as many of our fund raising dollars as we can to help our larger community with a focus on equity.
If you are in need of support — right now — to meet your child's educational or basic needs please contact your school counselor.
View this video to hear directly from teachers about how they have benefitted from EAC donations.
Who decides how the money is spent?
Each year, the teachers and staff of Eckstein put in “grant requests” to the PTSA. (For example, the math department may ask for new and better workbooks or the library may need new chairs.) The PTSA works with the principal to determine which grants are funded or deferred, based on need and budget.
