Operating Charter

Connecting home and campus in Phoenix

Operating in close coordination with Kyrene School District, our volunteer-led 501(c)(3) organization bridges the gap between families and the middle school classroom. We focus resources where they make an immediate impact on student learning.

Whether funding robotics lab supplies or organizing teacher appreciation lunches, our goal is zero-guilt, high-impact support that respects family schedules.

All financial budgets and grant allocations are audited annually and posted online for complete transparency. Families can review quarterly balance sheets upon request at any monthly meeting.
