Why Acorn School Needs to Fundraise:
Acorn School is thrilled to be welcoming students in our newly re-designed outdoor learning spaces! We are committed to provide the highest level of childhood education and safety, while also fostering magical and enriching childhood experiences.
Acorn School is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides invaluable childhood education to preschoolers and kindergarteners in the Seacoast NH area. Each year Acorn School depends on generous donations and sponsorships as tuition alone does not cover its annual operating expenses. Giving to Acorn School provides opportunities to grow and learn.
For the 2020-2021 school year, Acorn has reduced class sizes, hired additional teachers to keep our student/teacher ratio low, and is taking health and safety as its highest priority due to COVID.
Now, more than ever your contribution will make a significant impact. Please consider participating in this race or make a donation today to ensure Acorn is around for generations to come!
Thank you for participating, and go Team Acorn!!!!!!
