We are Superstars!!
Our primary focus for fundraising is to raise money to provide our students and staff, programs and resources which are impactful, educational, and fun. These funds go towards providing classroom teaching aides, music and art programs, classroom supplies, librarian, and costs to cover teacher/staff grants and allowances for continued education programs.
This year, with our primary fundraising focus will be on our Direct Donations Drive paired with needing to recover funds we did not gain from the end of last year, we are asking that all Superstar Families consider making a tax-deductible Direct Donation of $400 per student. See here for a breakdown of where the money goes.
We have set up a seamless way to make your Direct Donation via PayPal Giving Fund.
Our PTO Direct Donation request is $400 (USD) per student.

Please think about local businesses which you and your family visit on a regular basis – dentist, realtor, optometrist, tutoring, karate, or dance class, after-school care, auto care shop, jeweler, dry cleaners to name a few - and inquire if they would be interested in being a sponsor for Stevens Creek PTO.
Becoming a business sponsor provides both advertising for their local business while also help raise funds for our programs. Win-win! Here are ways businesses can help:
Minimum $500 for business logo to be included on the back of Walkathon t-shirt.

If businesses participate in both, the logo will be bigger on the Walkathon t-shirt.
