Mothers Club Proceeds and Impact
In addition to funding the events and activities listed above, each year the Mothers Club purchases a gift for the school from our proceeds. We have purchased a kiln for the ceramics class, lab tables for a science room, teacher workroom supplies, repairs to air conditioners in the Chapel and trainer’s room, as well as provided several scholarships. We work closely with the school administration to identify and fulfill higher priority academic and supportive facility needs.
