SUMMER FUNDRAISING FOR PLAYGROUND AND SCHOOL FENCE

Dear Parents/ Gaurdians,
Studies show that parental involvement in a child's education is one of the most important factors in raising student self-esteem and academic achievement. Moreover, most experts agree that parental involvement should go beyond attendance at teacher conferences and open house. We realize, however, that each of our families is unique – with its own priorities, needs, talents, and time constraints -- and so we try to provide as many different kinds of opportunities for parental involvement as possible.

Here is another great opportunities for parental involvement,

School is over but our Faculty and Staff keep working to be prepared for even more successful school year for the next year. One of the project that we are working on is to extend our Facility in order to provide more proper and safe learning environment for our students. As you may know we have been trying to start the playground and School Fence project for some time now. We have raised some portion of the funds needed to start construction. But unfortunately, we are still in need of $35,000. We figure, if everyone donates around $50 - $100 dollars, we will be able to reach our goal. If you want to contribute to this project, please come by the campus and make a donation. Ms. Alex will be on campus for the month of June and you can also mail in your donation, or make a credit card payment over the phone. We really appreciate anything that you can do to help. We know that with your help we can definitely make our playground and School Fence project a huge success.

I also believe that if we all join our hands together, we can make our school better.


Following options are to make Donation:

1. Credit Card ( You can do it over the phone )
2. Check (payable to HSS - Houston)
3. Money Order (payable to HSS - Houston)
