Providing formative experiences for Teach School where students love learning and choose the challenge of accelerated academics
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Teach Elementary is a school of choice in the San Luis Coastal Unified School District for 4th-6th grade. Teach Boosters' mission is two-fold: community-building for all Teach staff, students and families and fundraising to support the enrichment programs at Teach, where students grow grit by choosing the challenge of accelerated academics. Our mission is to provide a rigorous, accelerated-pace curriculum with a focus on innovation and exploration that engages students to grow academically and personally. Our vision is to promote leadership, responsibility, collaboration, and independence in our students, paving the way for them to become innovators, explorers, lifelong learners, and contributors to a diverse global community.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Our goal is to provide formative and extraordinary opportunities of discovery and learning during overnight study trips to Catalina Island Marine Institute (6th), Yosemite (5th) and Camp Ocean Pines (4th), Innovation & Exploration Initiative projects, celebrating the creative arts (artist-in-residence, 6th grade play, Walk through History for all grade levels), day field trips, and more are estimated to cost approximately $600 per student.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Teach Boosters is committed to providing the above programs for all our students. The programs are funded by voluntary donations, local business sponsorships, grants and fundraisers. Boosters rely on Tiger Challenge donations, business sponsorships and grants as the primary funding sources for the programs, because traditional school-wide fundraisers do not scale for our small school.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Teach Boosters is a parent-led, not-for-profit organization. The high level of parent involvement at Teach is one of the strengths of our school.
Parent involvement helps Teach School make a profound, positive impact on our students as they grow intellectually, socially, emotionally, and creatively and as they develop into future contributors to our diverse, global community.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Teach Elementary has been recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School three times (2018, 2012, 1992) and as a California Distinguished School (2018, 2014, 2012), which reflect our progress on our school and Teach Booster goals: student growth and parent/community involvement.
