2021/2022 Steele Strong

Last year, the Steele PTA raised over $230,000.  We hope to raise as much this year through the Steele Strong campaign.  
  • If every Steele family were to donate $500 we’d reach our goal in no time!  

About the Stallion Fund

Steele Elementary School is a public school on the rise, thanks to the active involvement by parents and the community in both volunteering and fundraising.

The annual Stallion Fund supports critical educational needs outside the standard district budget as determined by the Principal and the Steele’s Collaborative School Committee (CSC), and in alignment with Steele's Unified Improvement Plan.

Although the ways we raise money this year will look different due to the unprecedented year we are facing, our legacy of supporting our children and educators will ALWAYS remain the same.

Educational philosophy... At Steele Elementary, teaching and learning is an enthusiastic enterprise – a dynamic interchange between students and their teachers. Steele delivers a comprehensive academic experience that nurtures inquisitive, confident, aspiring learners who are poised to succeed both on tests, and in life.

Family Fundraising Kit

One of the ways we hope to reach 100% participation in the Stallion Fund is by asking each family to reach out to family, friends and community members for contributions to our school's academic vision.  

If you have already donated, or if you aren't in a position to donate this year, this is a fabulous way to contribute to our campaign efforts! Every little bit helps, especially in the last stretch!
