Overview

Mission

The organization's primary exempt purpose is to support the educational goals and activities of Beaver Creek Elementary School in Johnston, IA.

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization strives to provide the school's faculty and staff with resources that help in the instruction of the student through a series of grants throughout the school year. As part of the organization's Teacher Back to School Dollars program, $4,200 was allocated to the Beaver Creek teaching staff, including new teachers, to help defray the costs of classroom supplies at the beginning of the year. Through the school principal's discretionary fund, the organization contributed over $3,700 to the school's nutrition department to help pay down students' school lunch balances and fund its Wagons To Move lunch program. Throughout the year, the organization helped fund the school's library and art department with donations of almost $2,500 and $1,800, respectively. Also throughout the year, the organization aims to provide an environment conducive to learning by providing enjoyable activities for the students. To this end, the organization contributed almost $2,300 to fund the annual 5th grade celebration for all graduating 5th graders, as well as over $1,000 for family activities such as an in-school movie night and roller-skating party. Finally, the organization provided over $6,600 to fund conference night teacher dinners and a weeklong year-end staff appreciation event for the teachers, aides, custodians, drivers, and support staff, as a show of support and appreciation of the organization and its parents for the faculty and staff of Beaver Creek Elementary School.
