Additional Fundraising Events & Programs

Here is a list of fundraising events we host through the school year. Be on the lookout for announcements on social media and from our principal, as well as paperwork in your student's backpack. ​The more help we can get to plan and execute these the better. Please contact us if you'd like to be involved in organizing, sponsoring, volunteering during an event or helping out in any way! We'd also love it if you can support just by attending or purchasing items from a sale!

​Pancake Breakfast had been an annual event at Tahoe for many years until put on hold due to the pandemic. Talks of reviving it for this school year has us excited. 2020 was our most successful breakfast yet, with us raising over $5,000. Raffle, silent auction, live music, local vendors, and of course delicious food with gluten-free and vegan options made this event a big success! (please note: this flyer is from 2020, dates and details are not current)
​

Tahoe's Jog-a-Thon ran for 7 years in a row until 2020 got in our way  (like it did for most things). It has always been our most profitable fundraiser to-date, bringing in upwards of $9,000. It requires a lot of volunteers to make this event happen, so please email us to help organize and get our biggest fundraiser back up and running (pun intended). And if you know of a business or person to be a sponsor, please send them our way!

​See's Candies are loved by most everyone, so it's only natural we host this fundraiser every year. Folks look so forward to receiving these nostalgic boxes, they practically sell themselves. Sales around the holiday season bring plenty of chocolate for yourself, loves ones, co-workers, your mail carrier, hair stylist...the list goes on! (please note: this flyer is from 2021, dates and details are not current)

Fall Pie Sales are now a regular thing. Our first year we made over $1200 selling handmade pies from The Pie Company, located in Ripon, CA. You can be all set for the holidays again this year, with 8 flavors to choose from, easily ordered online or with an order form. 

​Sales with Fair Trade Caravans is a wonderful way to support artisans and farmers around the world while raising money for our school. Hand-crafted one-of-a-kind products teach us to care for small businesses who create from the heart. We are planning to host a Makers Market near the holidays this year instead of this event, but look for it in the future!

Our annual Scholastic Book Fair is a staple at Tahoe. Students get so excited to look at and choose new books to spark their imagination and wonder. Every sale earns our school rewards money to purchase from Scholastic. In 2021 we were able to gift one new book to each and every student at Tahoe! If only you could have heard their cheers and seen their smiles! We look forward to our next book fair this December.

Our Spring Plant Sale has been held the past two years to help bring in money and interest in the Garden Docent Program. Students will start the veggies, herbs and flowers being sold as part of their garden lessons - a plan we will make happen this school year with our new program lead, Shaun Jewell. (Volunteers have started the plants these past years.) If you are interested in being a garden docent please email Shaun to learn more! (please note: this flyer is from spring 2022, dates and details are not current)

​The inaugural Multicultural Arts Festival was one of the biggest, most wide-reaching event Tahoe has ever seen. In partnership with Wide Open Walls, our Art Docent Program put on a spectacular display of art, culture and community.  Our school is now adorned with 40+ murals to inspire and enliven our students, neighbors and city.
While raising money for Tahoe's art program through sponsors and donations, as well as bringing the community together to celebrate Beauty in Diversity, we sparked a district-wide program to bring murals to every school in Sacramento! We plan to continue with a yearly Multicultural Festival in the spring.

​We have in the works our first ever Tahoe Makers Market! This holiday season we will host crafters of all kinds from within the neighborhood, city and Tahoe community to showcase their talents. Planning is in the earliest stages, so please contact Allison if you are a local maker or are interested in helping organize!
