As a way of planning for the next year and for the years to come, Hamilton is starting an Annual Fund through the Pasadena Educational Foundation (PEF), with a goal of $150,000.  Thanks to the Technology Challenge we already have $21,000 to start our fund. This money will be used to replace our aging computers that have been crashing to provide functional and current technology for our Computer Lab.  Future Hamilton Annual Fund contributions could potentially fund staff for the new Learning Center (aka “Math & Reading Club”), our librarian, and other programs that strengthen academic achievement and enrichment programs at Hamilton.

We are asking everyone who can to give $500 per child - this is less than even one month at the least expensive local private school -  just $42 a month.  If you can’t give that much, please give what you can.  For example, $250 a year is just $21 a month or $120 a year is $10 a month.  If you can’t give money than we ask that you give time to the fundraising efforts. Donations are tax deductible.

Public education is not free.  We must take ownership for our school.  We will not let Hamilton go backwards!  For more information or if you have questions, please email Jennifer McCreight, School Site Council Chair.
