“I just want to donate and volunteer” says a proud former RA Gateway Student as she checked in as a WSCA student volunteer for the Trunk or Treat and makes a stop by the AGC table!

Thank you to all who stopped by the AGC table and donated as all this is possible because of your support. Congratulations to our two AGC raffle winners Stacey Hisey and Riquelen Ngumezi.

ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN – Art Docent Program support

“I think art is really calming and I feel like my brain is relaxing and my hand has a brain of its own.”

–Mandy (RAG Student)

The Art Docent Program brings art and art appreciation into the classrooms and supports the growth of our students as artists and art enthusiasts. In addition to being an incredibly fun activity, art docent lessons also offer students an opportunity for self-expression which leads to a sense of achievement. Monthly our students learn about different artists and their works, engage in art critiques, and create a variety of fun hands-on art projects. The art docent program is truly only possible because of all our wonderful art docent volunteers and your continued support to the Annual Giving Campaign which invests about $2,000 annually towards the program to replenish used art supplies and add different tools and medium to offer a variety of expanding experiences, including clay, screen printing, bleeding tissue art, fluorescent, metallic paints, and more!

Help us to continue to support this program, consider donating today to the Annual Giving Campaign online at  https://gatewaypsp.rallyup.com/agc2223 or drop off your donation at the front desk with this Annual Giving donation form. THANK YOU so much to all our families and your continued support to the Annual Giving Campaign, all this would not be possible without YOU!

ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN

“Creates a sense of COMMUNITY and EXCITEMENT about reading”

Says Dana Michaeloff, our Lead Hub Library volunteer, as she goes from one grade level library to the next, “We see students come out to look through the books and happily talk with each other about which books they like and what topics they enjoy, creating a beautiful community around reading, books and learning.”  

Our student hub libraries have over 12,500 books thanks to our wonderful families and teachers. Our Annual Giving Campaign (AGC) has invested about $10,000 over the last 5 years to continue to grow and maintain our hub libraries, so thank you for your continued donations to the AGC! This year, we hope to add another bookcase in our 2nd Grade hub library and label/process about a thousand more non-fiction and high-priority donated chapter books to be added to our libraries. We need your HELP! Our current library needs this year will be an investment of about $4,500 thus we need you to help support the Annual Giving Campaign. The AGC helps grow and maintain our hub libraries, but wait that is not all, funds from the AGC also go towards our art/music docent programs, classroom accounts for teachers, campus enhancements (as needed) and much more. We are striving for 100% participation in our Annual Giving Campaign at any level that works for your family! So, how can you donate today and help us continue to provide traditional book libraries to INSPIRE a love of learning and reading in our students and fund many other school programs.  

Donate to the Annual Giving Campaign online at  https://gatewaypsp.rallyup.com/agc2223 or drop off your donation at the front desk with this Annual Giving donation form. THANK YOU so much to all our families and your continued support to the Annual Giving Campaign, all this would not be possible without YOU!
