Each year, we identify goals and — with enough volunteer leadership and support — we undertake specific projects to further these goals. We raise funds only for agreed-upon projects that we are not able to fully support through our general fund (membership donations). Recent projects range from the Tiger logo on the front of the building and the memorial plantings and bench at the center of the ca
mpus, to the addition of the computerized Eureka Career and College Planning System as part of Terra Nova’s counseling resources. Our single largest current goal is to dramatically expand the installation of Smart-Board technology to the classrooms. Ongoing activities are supported by volunteer committees. We help facilitate a Career Day and College Fair. We present preparation courses for the SAT and PSAT tests. Our Academic Council for Excellence (ACE) recognizes scholastic achievement and improvement with the award of U.S. Savings Bonds, and we award grants in support of projects proposed by faculty and staff. We sponsor a graduation-night party for seniors. We beautify the campus through gardening, clean-ups and other improvements, to reinforce student respect for the school and the environment in which they learn. Our members periodically help out in the office, and regularly represent parental concerns in school and district-wide committees.
