Team Campaign

Dear Coolidge Elementary,

The 2017-2018 TEAM campaign is well underway!  Although our district has been faced with drastic budget cuts, we still rise above.  Thank you for showing up every day full of passion and dedication to learning and teaching.  Now more than ever, your donations matters.  I want to encourage each of you to contribute in some way to the 2017-2018 TEAM campaign.  If everyone in our district gave $1 a pay period, we would raise over $113,000.00!  100% of the funds raised through the TEAM campaign, fund our partnership with DonorsChoose.org.  We want our school to have a 100% giving!  Please feel out a pledge card or make a donation. 

The top 3 schools based on percentage of giving will receive a visit from the Dodgers Mascot.
