Welcome to the start of the new year!
Parent Council is an organization of parents and guardians who work together to make Fort River a fun, stimulating, and welcoming environment for all children and families. Every parent and guardian is automatically a member of Parent Council.
Here are some of last year’s Parent Council sponsored events:
- A Free Yearbook and Student Directory for Every Student
- Family Fair
- School Picture Day
- Fall Festival
- Book Fair
- Field Day
- Special Education Staff Needs
- Classroom Support & Enrichment
- Extra Funds for Field Trips
- Library Funds
- Scholarship Fund
- After School Clubs
- Staff Appreciation Luncheon
- Bus Driver Breakfast
- And many more …
To continue these and other activities we hope all parents will make two commitments to Parent Council this year:
- Volunteer 2 hours of your time.
- Donate money to our Annual Fund.
ANNUAL FUND
This year Parent Council would like to focus time and energy on student events and community building rather than fundraising. If we can raise a significant portion of our $13,000 budget by Sept 25th we will eliminate several time-consuming fundraisers. Please help us by making an early donation to our Annual Fund. Suggested donation is $25-$50 a child, but donating more will help the families who cannot afford as much. All amounts will help us reach our goal. Please choose your tax deductible donation amount:
- $25
- $50
- $75
- Other
Donate online via PayPal.
Thanks for all your support !

Parent Council President
