Kentwood Elementary

Kentwood Elementary needs your financial help to bridge the gap between the shrinking LAUSD budget and our growing programs. We want to keep our art, chorus, orchestra, computer lab, field trips, assemblies and our classroom supplies. We believe these programs along with great teaching helped push our API scores to the highest in the LMU Family of Schools!

The Annual Pledge Drive is our largest source of income to fund the budget gap. Our goal is to raise $500 per student, less than $1.70 per instructional day. There are 3 ways to pledge: (1) check, (2) credit card or (3) via PayPal click here. You can pay all at once or make monthly payments. If you can, please consider sponsoring a child at Kentwood. In the past we have received donations from $25 to $6,000. Anything you can give is gratefully accepted and your generosity WILL make a difference at our school. All donations are tax deductible. Click here to view and print the Pledge Drive Form. You can drop the completed form in the PTO box in the office.

Don’t forget your company’s matching program. Many companies will match your contribution dollar for dollar.

This year, based on parent feedback, we have reduced our fundraising schedule to 6 events:

To fund our current programs we will need to raise more than $60,000.

Please support your child’s education!

Sincerely,
The Kentwood Education Fund
