Support Covington

The Covington PTA is excited for another wonderful year ahead! Our goals are to bring together our amazing community and support our teachers and students in having an amazing year. 

We of course can't do it without all of you. The PTA is responsible for raising money for things like our kid's school supplies, student programs like music and living classroom, and the resources our teachers need to support their curriculum. We also plan and host events for our community that we hope you'll take part in. 

In order to make all these things happen, we need to raise $575 per student.  Every dollar donated goes directly to support curriculum, programs, and supplies for your student and our community events. This year, our student bundles are a bit different with multiple coyote tiers (see below). We hope you can find something that’s best suited to your family, if you are able to give monetarily.

We know there are lots of ways you can choose to donate your time and money, So we are immensely grateful you'll consider giving to the school. Here's a calendar of the PTA organized and funded events and activities for the year. The * events are our primary fundraisers, or in our bundles this year we're offering a ‘one-and-done’ if that option works better for your family. To learn more about how the PTA raises and spends money, here’s a high-level summary and here’s the more detailed annual budget. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

$575

This bundle is our all-in option! Our PTA per student fundraising need is $575, so this bundle helps fund everything from school supplies to teacher training, and everything in between. And it of course includes all the favorites - Class Party Fund, Walk-a-Thon T-shirt Sponsorship AND a free Marquee Birthday Message. You are always welcome to participate in our school fundraisers throughout the year, but this takes care of everything up-front if you prefer (the one exception is Walk-A-Thon since that is a student-driven fundraiser).

$400

Our Coyote Gold bundle supports all of our Student Programs and Community Building! Along with School Supplies, PTA Membership, and the Class Party Fund, this bundle helps fund our Student Programs - Living Classroom, Art Docent, Project Cornerstone, and Music & Movement. For Community Building, you'll be a Walkathon T-shirt Sponsor and help the school offer free events like the back-to-school BBQ, and the Multicultural Fair AND a free Marquee Birthday Message for your child, a . A portion of your donation also goes towards our student field trip scholarship fund, so all students can participate in these special activities.

$275

Our Coyote Silver covers all the basics and specifically focuses on supporting our teachers. This bundle includes School Supplies, a PTA membership, a Marquee Birthday Message for you child(ren), the library book fund, and it supports our Teacher Discretionary Fund (for classroom/teaching supplies) and our Teacher Training & Curriculum.
