Some of our teachers support the whole campus and these are often student’s favorite subjects, which require additional support. By making a donation to the Specialist Fund, you’ll be providing support to: Science, Music, Physical Education, and the Library.
A message from Patty Hanafee, Donlon Science Specialist:
I am so excited to be teaching again this year! There will be more individual labs and the use of more disposable items. This requires lab equipment for each student each day. I do have some equipment, but I will need to supplement that using donated funds. The Donlon community has always been generous and I am asking for that to continue. Please donate what you can and stay curious!
A message from Leslie Lawrence, PUSD Music Educator:
I can not wait to see all the Donlon Cubs soon and create music together. I am planning for a musical and engaging year. Your donations toward the music program are much appreciated and cover the cost of instrument purchases and maintenance, sheet music, recorded music, technology needs and photocopies for music theory practice sheets for every student at Donlon...and so much more! Thank you very much for your on-going support of Donlon's music program and I'll see you soon!
A message from Donlon Physical Education:
We look forward to seeing your students this year for physical education. There are various types of equipment needed for our students to be able to learn effectively through activities. Your donation to aid in funding this equipment is much appreciated and valued. Thank you for your support of the physical education program.
A message from Kate Jupina, Donlon Library/Media Specialist:
I look forward to seeing you all this year for library time! I look forward to continue buying books that match the interests of all of our students and that also reflect our diverse student population. My goal is to have an average of 20 books per student, we are currently at 17.5 books per student and your donation will help me reach my goal! Thank you in advance for supporting the library and helping our students become lifelong learners with a love of reading!
We are asking for a voluntary donation of $125 PER STUDENT to support the Specialist Fund.
*Please be assured that our Donlon Specialists are using these funds wisely to set our Cubs up for learning success! We encourage you to support them in teaching our kiddos, by contributing to the Specialist Fund!
