– Our Annual Appeal –
This campaign for the 2024-2025 school year focuses on supporting district initiatives fostering innovative thinking, growth, and success among students, including partnerships with organizations like the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, enhancing Bayside Middle art curriculum, expanded STEAM programming, empowerment programs, and other district requests.
Thanks to your generous support, the Fox Point-Bayside Educational Foundation had another remarkable year. Last year's Full STEAM Ahead initiative allowed the district to bring immersive learning experiences to our students, from expanded STEAM programming to the arts and beyond. With your help, our students had the opportunity to participate in unique educational experiences, and we’re proud of the impact this has made on their learning and development.
As we begin the new academic year, we continue our commitment to enhancing student education across our district. This year, we are focused on supporting exciting district initiatives such as:
- Expansion of the district partnership with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra’s Arts in Community Education (ACE) Program to include both K5 and 1st grade students, bringing enriching arts experiences to more of our youngest learners
- New and innovative offerings in 2D, 3D, digital, and ceramic art as part of an expanded art curriculum at Bayside Middle School
- Building on STEAM programming with additional field trips and state-of-the-art technology
- The Youth Frontiers’ Courage Retreat to foster positive development for our 7th graders
In addition to the above initiatives and other district requests, we are excited to share that a larger project will be announced in the spring, in conjunction with our annual fundraising event.
While the district has made significant strides in updating school facilities, the success of these educational programs and enhancements relies on the financial support of our community. Your contributions are essential to ensuring these impactful programs continue to benefit our students.
Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference in providing students with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed. We invite you to join us in supporting this important work. Please help us fuel these initiatives with a tax-deductible donation of any amount.
Together, let's build a brighter tomorrow. Thank you for being a valued part of our community and for investing in the future of our children.
Your support makes a difference!
Last year, our community's generous support of the Trailblazing Beyond the Classroom campaign enabled partnerships with the Schlitz Audubon Nature Center, offering immersive outdoor programming for students, supported an inclusive education program by The Ability Center, providing adaptive physical education, and empowered all 7th graders to attend the Courage Retreat—a heartfelt thank you for making these impactful initiatives possible!
