JAMESTOWN – Jamestown Public Schools has established a community fund that officials say will help aid the district in paying for school programming.
The Jamestown Schools PROMISE Fund stands for Providing Resources to Our Mission in Support of Education. According to school officials, it’s been created to support and enhance programs and/or initiatives which are threatened by a lack of funding in the school budget. These include new courses, access to the latest technology, music and the arts, after-school programming, tutoring, and more.
The fund could also bolster teacher development and parent/family engagement to ensure student success.
The Chautauqua Region Community Foundation is hosting the Promise Fund, assuring that all donations are tax-deductible.
Donations can be made at www.promisefund.org.
