Funding Requests

The Roosevelt Parent-Teacher Group (PTG) mission is to strengthen the connection between Roosevelt families and staff.  We do this by supporting community building, school spirit and academic resources and technology.  PTG is open to all parents, teachers, grandparents and legal guardians of our students.

Funding Requests: The PTG welcomes funding requests from teachers and staff.  We give priority to the three funding areas below.

PRIORITY AREAS

  • Community Building
    Examples of past funding: family nights (Boo Bash, bingo & movie nights); field trips and event scholarships; community garden; after school programs. 
  • School Spirit
    Examples of past funding: Assemblies; swag; staff appreciation week; crossing guard program; front entry and playground improvements.
  • Academic Resources & Technology
    Examples of past funding: Smart boards; Reflex Math; special classroom projects. 

Special Notes:

  • Requests for classroom supplies should be discussed in advance with the principal
  • PTG is happy to consider requests related to field trips, particularly if there is a cost associated with student participation. However, we first ask you to include an option for parents to donate extra money to help support students who can’t afford to go. The office will work with you to provide a half-sheet to attach to your permission slips for this purpose.

To submit your request, please fill out the form below, submit a copy in the PTG mailbox or email to PTG President Kate Bassett kate_bassett@yahoo.com two weeks prior to the next PTG meeting (most meetings are the second Thursday of the month). Please note, the PTG may require you to attend the meeting to answer any questions.
