PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

Thank you to our amazing Cove community for such an awesome surprise birthday celebration on Friday. It filled my heart to be dancing and laughing with all of you. Your special signs and cards were so thoughtful. I know a few people emailed me that they missed it, so I am sharing the Zoom recording link for anyone who is interested.

PTO UPDATES

The PTO would like to thank everyone who is and has been a helper.

SPARK NEWS

Fundraising Update With three weeks left to go in the school year, we wanted to say thank you to the current families which raised a record-breaking $1M through Annual Giving. Even with this fundraising milestone, we are $180K shy of our $1.5M goal. Not meeting our fundraising goal has financial consequences and may result in SPARK significantly reducing its commitment for the 2020-2021 school year. As a result, we are making an impassioned plea to every family who is able to step up during this time. Here’s how you can help: 

• Make a donation to support our schools. Any amount counts! 

• Increase your donation with Corporate Match. If you made a recent donation this year through Annual Giving or the recent Paddle Raise, check if your company participates here. 

Support Left Bank and Support SPARK Raise a fork, or a glass, and à votre santé! Left Bank Larkspur has teamed up with SPARK with their 20% of theMonday night Roasted Family Chicken meals benefitting our schools; bottles of Sommelier’s selected wine, as well as kids beverages, will also be available. Available for pick-up and delivery from 12pm-8:30pm; order online or call415.927.3331. Click here for their menu.
