What is Acorns to Oaks?
Acorns to Oaks Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose sole purpose is to raise money to support enriching educational opportunities for every child at Garden Hills Elementary. We focus on these main areas:
Curriculum
Thanks to the Foundation, our students and teachers have access to enhanced instructional materials that bring learning to life. From funding supplemental literacy resources to STEM lab modules, this continued support enables us to offer a more engaging and comprehensive curriculum tailored to the needs of our students.
Technology
In today’s digital age, as we train students for jobs that don’t yet exist, access to current technology is vital. The Foundation helps us maintain and expand tools that students need to thrive.
Professional Development
An excellent school begins with excellent educators. Through the Foundation’s support, our teachers are able to participate in high-quality learning opportunities on IB, literacy, math, ESOL and gifted learning through conference attendance as well as ongoing training programs.
Facilities Improvement
The Foundation also contributes to the enhancement of our learning environment through targeted facilities improvements. From the play field renovation and ongoing maintenance to the media center STEAM lab to upcoming enhancements to the courtyard, these projects directly support student engagement and well-being.
