Fundraising

Because of your generous contributions, we are able to provide programs and supplies not provided by DeKalb County to improve our students’ educational experiences. There are many opportunities to help our school raise funds!

Here are a few easy ways to help:

• PTO Community Enrichment Donations — Once you've registered, you can make a tax-deductible contribution to the school's Enrichment Fund from THIS page. The PTO is FREE to join, but please donate if you are able! 
  
  

• Corporate Matches — If you work for a company that offers gift-matching, please provide us with your employer’s matching gift form to double your donation! Matching gifts are a quick and easy way to increase your contribution to the school. To set up a company match, please email Christina Joyner at treasurer@montgomerypta.com. All donations are tax deductible!

Boosterthon Fun Run

The Boosterthon is our biggest fundraiser of the year! The 9-day experience raises funds for our school while promoting Fitness, Leadership, and Character for our kids. It culminates with the annual Fun Run event in which each grade level completes laps around the field. 

The 2023 fun run took place September 14th, 2023 and was a HUGE success! Thank you to the families, friends, neighbors, and businesses who supported our school.

Because of your contributions, we have been able to provide additional programs and supplies to improve our students’ educational experiences. The 2022-2023 fundraising dollars helped put turf on the field, support teacher trainings, beautify our campus, and support programming. Over the summer of 2023, we updated the Secret Garden outdoor classroom! Below is an update on some of the experiences and resources that your donations were used for in recent years to improve Montgomery:

• 2 in-house High Touch High Tech Programs for grades K-5 

• Atlanta History Center Social Studies Traveling Trunks

• Educational Resources for all grade levels, classrooms, and specials

• Additional classroom supplies and materials (classroom rugs, manipulatives, etc)

• Additional musical instruments
