We made it to our goal of $300,000!! Thank you for funding important Alcott programs like Primary Science, Music, Teacher Wish Lists, 8th Grade Field Trip, Dances, Social Events and more! If you didn't get the chance but would still like to donate, there are many more programs on Principal Karrel's list that she'd love to have funded!

CONGRATS TO OUR NEW MID-YEAR BOARD MEMBERS!

Congratulations to the newest 2022-2023 FOA Board members from our mid-year elections: Jason Smith and Ron Chan

As a reminder FOA meetings are held the second Tuesday of every month at 8:00am in the cafeteria. Everyone is welcome! The next meeting will be Tuesday, December 13th at 8AM. Hope to see you there!
Remember, you do not have to be on the Board to get involved or volunteer with FOA. We welcome all parents to e mail us or come to an FOA meeting to learn more about how to get involved.

Get Involved

Alcott is always in need of parent volunteers! Email us if you'd like to be notified of various volunteer opportunities as they arise.

PARENTS NEEDED TO ASSIST WITH MORNING DROP-OFF

Our support staff has been doing a wonderful job getting our kids safely to their rooms at drop-off, but that staff is needed in the classrooms to get an efficient start to the school-day. Principal Karrel would be grateful if a rotating group of parent volunteers could assist with drop-off in the mornings from 7:30-8am. Email us if this is something you'd be interested in and we'll send you the details and sign-up calendar. Time commitment is minimal with flexible dates and only level 2 CPS volunteer clearance is needed.
