Overview

Mission

To raise funds and provide property and services to be used by students and faculty; provide volunteers for educational activities; and engage in other charitable, civic, or educational activities that will contribute to the public education of the community.

What it reported doing in 2025

Family, student and staff programming: hosted family and community events (Trunk or Treat, Racer Rodeo, grade-level celebrations), supported teacher and staff appreciation, and funded student activities including yearbook and classroom parties.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 85% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
