You can have a positive impact on our students.
Magic Fund is our annual fundraiser to raise critical funding and bridge the gap between what our school receives in public funding from the state and what it actually costs to provide an excellent, personalized, and well-resourced education to our amazing students. This year, we aim to raise $300,000 from our community to ensure we can provide the best possible education to our students.

Why do we fundraise?
Our program costs $8,000 per student more than what we receive in state public funding.
We receive $3,000 less per student than SFUSD schools as we’re not eligible for certain revenue streams as a charter school.
We fundraise to bridge those gaps so that we can maintain low adult to student ratios across our school, offer individualized supports to students, provide arts, music, and Spanish programming, and ensure exceptional academic outcomes.
Your donation help us create an amazing learning environment for all students — thank you!
What are we fundraising for this year?
This year, we’re raising money for essential student programming, field trips and graduation for 8th grade. You can learn more about each grade level’s goal and what the funds go towards on slides 8-9 in English & Spanish.
Participation Matters
Participation is also an important metric that the state holds our school accountable to, and it helps us secure grants from local foundations when we can show strong community involvement.
