Fund-The-Future: Hands-On Science
How do we know when the sun will rise and set?
How does the changing environment affect organisms?
How do we know matter exists even if it cannot be seen?

These are just some of the questions students will explore with the new
Science curriculum. This new curriculum was approved by the San Carlos
School District and will update our science program to the Next Generation
Science Standards (NGSS). This year’s Fund-the-Future campaign will bring
engaging, hands-on science learning to the K–8 San Carlos classrooms.
San Carlos Charter will use its share of the fund to buy equipment and
consumables for science education.

Investing in science will yield returns well beyond the school day. Students will:

• Learn science concepts with engaging hands on exercises.
• Build critical thinking and problem solving skills.
• Become careful consumers of scientific and technological information
  related to their everyday lives.
• Appreciate the beauty and wonder of science and continue their
  scientific explorations outside of school.
• Develop the skills to enter careers of their choice, including
  (but not limited to) careers in science, engineering and technology.

Your donation to Fund-The-Future will provide the needed resources to
purchase hands-on kits for classroom lessons, enhance professional
development for teachers in science education, obtain additional iPads and
Chromebooks for students, and provide principals with funds to support
science-related activities at their school.

Your donation will be magnified by a dollar for dollar match up to an
amount announced at the virtual gala. Thank you to the following generous
donors who have joined together to match our Fund-The-Future campaign:

Celebrating Our Community,
Building Our Future
Thank you for joining us at SCEF’s Virtual Starlight Gala. We honor and

who support the San Carlos Education Foundation, especially during these
challenging times. The Virtual Gala gives us the opportunity to come together

Your gifts to SCEF support teachers, enrichment programs, counselors and
other educators who would otherwise be reduced or eliminated from our
students’ world of learning due to reduced state funding. From transitional
kindergarten through eighth grade, SCEF gives every child every chance to
excel with a robust curriculum beyond what public funding would provide.
We are truly stronger together.

Remember to bid high and bid often. It’s for the kids!
