    PTA Direct Donation – aka Maple Money

    Your annual PTA Direct Donation or ‘Maple Money” supports a variety of enrichment grants awarded each year to our Seaholm teachers as well as school enhancement needs.  100% of these teacher grants are funded by your PTA Direct Donation and will directly benefit your student.  In addition to specific teacher grants, Direct Donations also support school enhancement needs identified by administration, department chairs and student leadership. 

    We suggest a donation of $75 for families with one student and $125 for families with multiple students.  Many families donate more than these suggested amounts.

    • Direct Donation is the major PTA FUNDRAISER for the school year.
    • Direct Donation is a no-hassle, no-sell no -buy fundraiser to support student learning.
