Thank you for all you do to support David Douglas Students!

We are glad to announce that the funding has been secured to offer our
6th grade students the opportunity to participate in a 3 day/2 night
Outdoor School experience this spring. Thank you to the efforts of
many individuals and groups who worked tirelessly to solicit
donations, sponsor events and participate in fundraising events. Since
the funding for Outdoor School was eliminated from the budget last
year due to budget cuts it took the cooperative effort of many to
raise the funding for this outdoor educational experience.

Support sending all David Douglas 6th graders to an Outdoor School site this Spring!

Reynolds School Board voted last night to fund a 3-day Outdoor School for their 6th graders in the Spring. This is a huge victory for those kids.

The DDSD community and Friends of Outdoor School have raised $132,673.82, needing only $13,700 more before a visit is possible for our students. We would need to raise $113,700 to send our kids for a full week of Outdoor School. Stay tuned for updates, events, and opportunities to help. As always, you can donate directly to David Douglas Educational Foundation or Friends of Outdoor School.

Exciting new total, with additional donations via David Douglas Education Foundation! We’re even closer to our goal!

We are very close to the $146,125 goal for 3-day, 2 night Outdoor School for all David Douglas School District 6th graders. We would love to see these kids in a full week of Outdoor School, but these numbers are very exciting and we believe we can do it!

**See updated post for new total as of 3:00pm on Friday, December 9,2011: New Fundraising Update!**
