Welcome parents! We hope your experience this coming year will be a great one for your child and your family. The parent’s involvement throughout the school year is one of the key elements that make our school so great. The ACT Fund is one of the many areas where parents can directly help the students’ learning experience. Please read below what the ACT Fund is and how you can help.

What is the A.C.T. Fund?
The ACT fund is part of the Pinecrest Enrichment Programs Fund, Inc. which raises money to donate to Pinecrest Elementary School. The purpose of the ACT Fund is to provide funds for the hiring of classroom aides (ACT aides) to help in the classroom. ACT aides assist the teachers in many ways such as reinforcing the instruction taught in the classroom and providing additional attention and personalized instruction to students as needed.

Benefits of ACT aides Include:
  • Assist teachers during all classroom learning
  • Provide temporary coverage for teachers during emergencies and/or scheduled meetings which avoid interrupting other classes for coverage of these students
  • Provide small group instruction geared to ability level
  • Help reduce the student/teacher ratio when needed
  • Assist in the cafeteria during lunch time

Our Goal
This year’s goal is to raise at least $60,000 for 6 aides to assist all of our Pinecrest Elementary teachers (one per grade level). The more funds we collect the more aides Pinecrest Elementary School can hire. The ACT aides’ primary duty will be to work directly with the students and the teachers. 

Participation
We hope to reach 100% participation from Pinecrest Elementary families. We strongly encourage all Pinecrest Elementary Families to make a tax-deductible donation. The average donation we receive from most families is between $250 - $500; however, any amount is welcome and very much appreciated. No amount is too small or too large for us! Your tax-deductible contribution will provide a richer and more productive learning environment for your child.

We also accept corporate donations. Many employers will match employee contributions, please check with your company to see if they have a corporate matching gift program.

Bienvenidos padres¡. Esperamos que su experiencia este ano que inicia sea la mejor para su(s) hijo/a (s) y familia. La involucración de los padres a través del año escolar es uno de los elementos esenciales que aportan a hacer nuestro colegio uno ejemplar. ACT Fund es una de las muchas áreas en las cuales los padres pueden directamente ayudar la experiencia de aprendizaje de su hijo/a.

Que es el ACT FUND:
El ACT Fund es parte del Pinecrest Enrichment Programs Fund, Inc. que promueve la recaudación de fondos para donar a Pinecrest Elementary School. El propósito del ACT Fund es obtener los fondos para que Pinecrest Elementary pueda contratar asistentes (ACT aides) adicionales para el apoyo en las aulas. Estas asistentes ayudan de muchas maneras, como por ejemplo, reforzar la instrucción de las maestras en el aula y brindando atención adicional y personalizada a los estudiantes, donde sea necesario.

Beneficios que ”ACT aides” proveer:
  • Asistir a las maestras en todas las enseñanzas del aula.
  • Proveer cobertura temporal para las maestras durante emergencias y/o reuniones planeadas para evitar la interrupción de otras clases para la cobertura de estos alumnos.
  • Proveer instrucción guiada de grupos pequeños por niveles de aptitud.
  • Ayudar a reducir la proporción de maestro por estudiante cuando sea necesario.
  • Asistir en la cafetería durante la hora del almuerzo 

Nuestra Meta:
La meta para este año es recaudar por lo menos $60,000 para contratar 6 asistentes para ayudar a todas nuestras maestras en Pinecrest Elementary (uno por cada grado). Mientras más fondos hayan disponibles, más asistentes pueden ser contratadas. La responsabilidad primaria de los ”ACT aides” será trabajar directamente con los estudiantes y profesoras 

Participación:
Esperamos llegar a 100% participación de las familias de Pinecrest Elementary. Les pedimos a todas las familias que se animen a hacer una donación deducible de impuestos. En el pasado, el promedio de las donaciones recibidas por familia es entre $250 - $500, sin embargo, cualquier donación que puedan hacer es bienvenida y muy apreciada. Su donación deducible de impuestos le proveerá un ambiente de aprendizaje más rico y productivo y para su hijo/hija. 

Aceptamos donaciones de corporaciones también. Muchas compañías igualan las contribuciones que sus empleados hacen, por favor consulten dentro de su compañía para verificar si cuentan con este programa y puedan empatar su donación.

Su Donación:
Porfavor visitar el sitio web de PTA para dar su donación:


Muchas gracias por su apoyo, agradecemos su donación!
