How Will My Donation Be Used?

A number of facilities improvements are currently being considered, including:

  • Upgrade acoustics, lighting, and AV equipment in the auditorium to enhance student theater productions, music performances, school-wide advisory meetings, organization meetings, and seminars. Full painting project in auditorium has recently been completed!
  • Addition of an overhang at the rear of the school to greatly enhance the dismissal process
  • Telecommunications and technology upgrades to the library and multi-use/Parent Room, which will expand outreach to the school community.

Projects relating to the maintenance and improvement of physical CPS buildings (interior and exterior) generally require full coordination with CPS Facilities Management, which may delay or impede desired projects. We ask for your patience while we work through necessary CPS protocol. Please join a FoSN meeting or email president@fosn.net for all project updates.
