What is the Del Lago Academy Foundation?
The Parent Foundation was founded in 2013 to support the Mission of our school, which is to prepare the scholars of Del Lago Academy to be future Scholars, Innovators, and World Citizens. We are here to help enhance the quality of education by providing resources and funds, to encourage participation in school activities, and to promote our school within the community.
 
Who is a member?
All parents and guardians of Del Lago scholars are automatically members, for both virtual and in-person scholars. As a member, your voice is heard and your vote counts. We encourage all members to take an active role in the foundation!
 
How to participate?
There are many ways you can participate in the Parent Foundation:
  1. Attend and participate in as many monthly meetings as you can. You are encouraged to share your past fundraising experience, discuss creative ideas for supporting our school and scholars, identify areas of improvement, and vote on special requests made by teachers, scholars, and the administration. Meetings are currently held after the virtual Dialogue with Del Lago.
  2. Volunteer when needed: distribute material like science kits and school supplies, make snack bags, etc. 
  3. Socialize all fundraising activities with friends and family. When you receive a communication about our fundraisers, share it on social media, email family, hang a flyer at work, and encourage your scholars to spread the word.
  4. Become a board member. We are actively seeking nominations for all Board of Directors positions. To nominate yourself or another member please click HERE today or email contact@dlaf.org! Elections will be held during the May meeting.
  5. Donate … Donate … Donate! Fundraising efforts this past year fell very short due to COVID. If every parent donated at least $35 we would reach our annual goal. This is important, as it helps to ensure that the programs and materials needed by the school are available, and can benefit all of our scholars. Make a one-time donation, or set up automatic payments for any dollar amount and any frequency. Click HERE to help us reach our goal.
Who do we impact?
Our scholars! Whether we provide funds to a teacher for supplies, snack bags during tutoring nights, water for graduation, or fund a senior project … we are here to support ALL DLA scholars. We support when needed, where needed, and we cannot do this without the support and commitment of parents like you!
As working parents, we do understand how valuable your time is and appreciate any amount of support you can offer. We do this because we sincerely love our community, our school, and most of all, our DLA scholars.  We hope you will consider becoming an active member. Please visit our website at www.dlaf.org or email us at contact@dlaf.org for further details. 

 Sincerely,
Your 2020/2021 Board of Directors
