Why should I donate money
to public schools? Isn't that why I pay taxes?
While it is true that property taxes are the primary revenue source for the Dekalb County School District, these revenues are insufficient to provide the various enrichment programs that make our elementary schools among the best in the state and the nation. Our State’s changing economic landscape calls for forward thinking and a way to ensure we have future funding to develop new curriculum initiatives and provide professional development to meet the needs of our 21st century learners. Our fundraising will allow us to offset these budget cuts and ensure the breadth of programs required to provide the quality education we all want for our children.
