Rose City Park Elementary School Fundraise for Staffing – Thank you for supporting our kids!
ROSE CITY PARK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Fundraise for Staffing at RCP
- RCP is facing significant staffing cuts for the 2024/2025 school year – but you can donate to help!
- The Fund for Portland Public Schools is a non-profit that raises funds for staffing positions at schools.
- A portion of your donation to RCP also supports equity provisions at other Portland schools. Details here: https://fundforpps.org/ppsparentfund
Rose City Park Elementary is facing some significant budget cuts for the 2024/25 year, and will be required to eliminate several positions in the next school year- including two key Vietnamese language positions. We are concerned about the impact this will have on our kids and the school.
Our group has raised $60,000 so far, from businesses and students’ families, to save these positions! We are nearing our goal of $83,000. Can you help us close the gap? Our deadline for fundraising is June 30th.
Make a tax-deductible donation today!
Thank you for supporting our kids!
