OUR MISSION:
CAPS is dedicated to enriching the educational lives
of AUSD students by providing grants to Atascadero
public school teachers through fundraising and donations.
CAPS was formed in 2007 to help provide teachers in the Atascadero
Unified School District the extra financial support needed to offer
important educational resources not available due to reductions in the
School District budget. We are a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit
organization comprised of parents, educators, retired teachers, and
community members. Since its inception, CAPS has granted nearly
$1 Million to AUSD teachers for Field Trips, Musical Instruments,
Marching Band Uniforms, Photo Book Projects, Battle of the Books,
iPads, Pottery Wheel, Science Equipment, Outdoor Learning Options
during COVID, and so much more. With the help of our generous donors
and supporters, we will continue our mission of enhancing the educational
experience and opportunities of our public school students.
