WHAT IS THE PARTNERSHIP?

WHAT EXACTLY IS THE PARTNERSHIP?

Basically, the Partnership is CFCI's Parent Teacher Organization.  But we are so much more than your average PTO.  We work together with the CFCI faculty and staff to provide our children with the best inquiry-based education possible.

WHO IS THE PARTNERSHIP?

Everyone at CFCI is a part of the Partnership!  When you enroll a child at CFCI, you automatically become a Partner.  Families are not required to do anything to join or pay any dues.  In addition to our general membership, the Partnership is managed by an executive board and several committees.  To learn more about our current board, click here.

WHAT DOES THE PARTNERSHIP DO?

Our purpose is to support the mission of CFCI and to foster the community driven spirit of our school.  We support our students and staff in various ways.  We sponsor special school-wide events for students and their families, provide stipends for teachers to purchase educational materials for their classrooms, and offer grants to faculty and staff to assist in curriculum purchases, professional development, and materials not otherwise covered by stipends.

HOW DOES THE PARTNERSHIP RAISE MONEY FOR THESE THINGS?

The Partnership raises money to support our mission in several ways.  Our biggest campaign, Fund the Wonder, is held every fall, and is a direct-give fundraiser.  We also raise funds through sponsored events like our annual Winter Fest Celebration, Book Fairs, and spirit-wear sales.  Learn more about current Fundraisers here.

HOW CAN I GET MORE INVOLVED?

There are lots of ways to get involved!  Come to a Partnership meeting, volunteer at an event, become a room parent, sign up for a committee, or apply to serve on the Partnership Executive Board.  Click here for more info!
