Fundraising
Our kids need you to create a brighter future.
Founded 100 years ago, Crocker Highlands has a history of excellence, woven into the rich legacy of Oakland. The school remains one of the top-performing elementary schools in the District, and was recently named a California Distinguished School for the third year in a row.
Faced with ever-increasing shortfalls in public funding, the school relies on the Crocker PTA to fund numerous staff positions that provide essential programs for our students. These staff positions include classroom aides, vocal music, physical education, library, computer instruction, supplemental math and reading specialists, yard supervision, and much, much more.
Financial giving is only one way to support our students. While we understand that resources are scarce and needs are abundant, we hope each family will make a meaningful contribution sometime during the school year. Our community is a diverse one – and we encourage you to define “meaningful contribution” in the context of your own family circumstances, resources, and comfort level. What matters is that we do this together.
You will hear more about our event-based fundraisers throughout the year and ways to get involved. If you are ready to give now, please do so to the right.
Every dollar counts, so, when giving, don't forget to check to see if your company matches gifts. Donations to Crocker PTA are tax-deductible, and you can double (or triple!) the impact of your donation with a matching gift.
Feel free to contact us with any questions at fundraising@crockerschool.org.
Thank you for your support!
