FY24 Highlights

Last year, we raised a total of $197,928 from two key fundraising events: Fund the Fern and our Annual Auction.​

These funds allowed us to accomplish several important goals:​

  • We hired our MTSS Math Specialist, Ms. Nelms-Lawrence

  • We formed a strategic partnership with Fernbank Science Center

  • We provided stipends and new break spaces for our dedicated teachers and staff

  • We made significant improvements to both the interior and exterior of our school

  • We supported various school programs

  • We maintained multiple academic subscriptions for our students
