ABOUT CAPE MEMBERSHIP
CAPE is a partnership between parents and educators who strive to enhance student learning and enrich the lives of the students within the school. It is also a forum for parents to obtain knowledge and voice their opinions about what is happening in their school.
A common misconception about CAPE is that all they do is organize fundraisers and school events. Although fundraising is an important and integral part of CAPE, the funds we raise help support many needed programs and improvements within the school. CAPE is so much more!
