Help Support Our School!

In the past several years, donations from the HSA have funded the purchase of new benches for the playground, classroom signs and more. Donations also fund cultural arts programs and library purchases.

This year, the teachers and staff at Beaumont have asked for help supplying the following items:

Flexible Seating for the classrooms (ie rocking style chairs) ~$500
Sets of individual, small lap-size white boards for students in 3rd grade ~$650
Poster maker to reinforce concepts with visuals in the classroom ~$6,000

We would love your support in providing these important items for our school. Donations can be accepted via Paypal http://paypal.me/besbears, and through our new website, https://beaumonthsa.membershiptoolkit.com/bearfund. The Beaumont HSA is a 501c3 nonprofit organization, and donations are tax deductible.

Thank you for considering the Beaumont HSA in your end of year giving.
