FSP Ask

The ARMS Family School Partnership sponsors activities and programming that support all ARMS teachers and students - from After School Clubs to Artists in Residents and other programs and materials that help provide additional enrichment experiences.   Instead of asking you to buy gift wrap or candy bars, we're just going to ask you for a check and we’ll put 100% of your donation to good use for our school and kids!

Why donate?

Every dollar counts! Your donations to the PGO go directly to:

• Replenishing last year’s major funding of After School Clubs (over $7600)
• Supplementing the After School Clubs budget this year if needed
• Funding hundreds of dollars in grants for special Class and School Projects
• Providing free School Directories to all families
• Saying thanks with the Teacher & Staff Appreciation Lunch
• Student and family community building activities and events.

Without your support, the FSP cannot continue to provide this support!

How much should I donate?

It’s up to you!  We'd love to reach all families so even if you can only contribute $1.00, please do.  We are an economically diverse community.  If you have the resources, please be generous. 

Please send your donation (with checks made out to ARMS FSP) into school with your child or by mail (ARMS FSP, 170 Chestnut Street, Amherst, MA 01002).  Please try to donate by October 12th so that we can put your contribution to good use as soon as possible.
