Fundraising

Donations 

There are no fees for PTO membership. However, Friends and Family monetary donations are appreciated and accepted year-round.  This is the primary fundraiser for the PTO.  Please visit our Friends and Family Campaign web page for more information, and to donate. Your support helps fund much-needed supplies and expenses for our school and children! The funds raised through Friends and Family are used to support a variety of student and faculty activities, including Fish Camp, Senior Awards, improvements to our beautiful campus and its facilities, teacher needs, etc. Our goal is 100% participation this year, so no matter how large or small your donation may be, we will put your money to good use for CVHS and our kids!
