LeConte!
When you give to the LeConte Fund, you give our children

Art, Farm & Gardening, Field Trips, YMCA Recess and more!

Like all Berkeley elementary schools, we ask all families to donate to help us support
important enrichment programs
program for our children

We are all in this together, so participation is most important. If 60% of families donate by
9/30,, we will celebrate with a big ice cream party for the whole school!

WHAT IS THE LECONTE ANNUAL FUND?

The LeConte Fund supports the variety of program paid for by the LeConte Parent Teacher
Association (PTA). Unfortunately, the school district does not cover all the expenses of a
comprehensive education like the one your child
child receives at LeConte. Donations to the Fund
will help fill that gap. The LeConte Annual Fund pays for:

Farm & Gardening

Art Classes
Circus Classes
Theater
Direct Classroom Support

Field Trips
Community Events, Fairs & Fun
Safety & Environmental Program
Programs
YMCA Recess
& Much More!

HOW MUCH SHOULD WE CONTRIBUTE?
Many families ask how much they should consider donating to the LeConte Annual Fund. The
PTA currently spends about $360 per child (and we would like to do more!), but donation vary
widely and participation is very important. Remember, if 60% of LeConte families participate by
September 30th, our kids will get an ice cream
cream party! Some families donate JUST ONE MORE
MONTH of what they paid for preschool or childcare before coming to LeConte which makes
a huge difference for our children (and can be distributed over 12 months).
