Thanks to your incredible support throughout the year—whether through restaurant nights, donations, or our Booster Fun Run—the EP Rock Parent Group is proud to fund a wide range of experiences and programs that enrich our school community.
Here’s just a glimpse of what your support makes possible:
🚌 Field Trips at No Cost for Families - We’re thrilled to fund 100% of field trip costs for every student in 2024–2025! From museums to nature parks, your donations make these real-world experiences possible.
📚 Educational Enrichment - From inspiring author visits and dynamic lyceums like Okello Sam’s musical performances to immersive experiences such as the Earth Orbit Expo and Junior Achievement, learning comes alive through programs that broaden students’ worldviews by introducing them to diverse cultures and essential real-world skills.
🌟 Capstone Events - Our 4th Grade Kindness Retreat fosters empathy, connection, and community, while the 5th Grade Camp St. Croix experience offers a memorable outdoor adventure and growth opportunity for our students.
🍿 Popcorn Fridays - Monthly popcorn treats as a reward for positive behavior—always a student favorite!
👕 4th & 5th Grade Track & Field Day T-Shirts - We provide custom t-shirts for students participating in the annual track and field day—boosting school pride, and a sense of celebration for our upper grades.
🎭 Storybook Theater - A special springtime opportunity for 4th and 5th grade students to explore the performing arts, build confidence, and shine on stage through a live performance experience.
☕ Kindergarten Coffee & Kleenex - This welcoming event helps families connect and supports our youngest learners as they settle into their first day at EP Rock.
📝 Teacher Wish List Grants - We provide funds for items not covered in classroom budgets — like learning tools, resources, and Physical Education equipment. We support the 4th grade chick unit by providing eggs and equipment for students to study embryo development through candling and an egg dissection lab, culminating in the chicks hatching.
👩🏫 Supporting Teachers & Staff - From welcome back gifts and first Friday lunches, to conference dinners and a weeklong celebration, we’re dedicated to appreciating the amazing people who support our children every day.
🎉 Bonus School Activities & Community-Building Events - We support a variety of fun and meaningful school activities throughout the year, including traditions like Bounce into Summer and the Turkey Trot, plus important initiatives like our Recycling Program and Contest. We also fund a special farewell to celebrate and honor our 5th graders as they complete their time at EP Rock, marking an important milestone.
☀️ Family Fun & Connection - From the Fall Bingo Night to the Spring Glow Dance, our Family Fun events foster meaningful connections and lasting memories. We also host Back-to-School and End-of-Year Picnics on our playground—fun, casual gatherings that help build community and kick off or close out the school year with smiles and a sweet treat for all attendees!
We couldn’t do any of this without YOU. Your support matters—and every meal out, donation or Fun Run pledge adds up! To keep the momentum going, you can also donate easily through Zeffy—100% of your gift directly supports the impact you help create.
