What is Spring Picnic?

Spring Picnic is a fun evening with family and friends, and it is also our school’s primary Spring fundraiser. There are so many great ways to contribute to our fundraising efforts. The sale of Event Tickets, Dinner Tickets, Teacher Appreciation Packages, and Black & White Photos all go directly towards supporting our wonderful school. A Silent Auction of fabulous packages offering items and experiences from local businesses also raises significant funds. Additionally, Underwriting opportunities are available to families, friends, and businesses.

Proceeds from the annual Spring Picnic are primarily be used to benefit our five Nature Explore Certified Outdoor Classrooms. Through this designated fundraiser, our beautiful outdoor play areas are upgraded and refreshed each year as our vision grows for meaningful outdoor learning opportunities. Additionally, a portion of the money raised is earmarked for tuition assistance for families in need. Underwriting donations, like yours, account for more than half of the funds raised by the Spring Picnic, which go directly to support these important projects, which cannot be funded through tuition alone.

Our Fundraisers

UNDERWRITING

The campus enhancements and tuition assistance would not be possible without the support of our underwriters. Consider making a tax deductible donation to our school to touch the lives of many. Donors will be recognized on the website and at the event.
