Who wants to see their teachers camp outside over night? I do! I do! me! Me!
We hope we can reach our $10,000 goal to see our principal and teacher(s) camp out at school, but more importantly these funds help run many events at Cooper and provide classroom supplies needed for each classroom!

$40.00 or more is all your child needs to raise to get us to our goal.
