• BEAUTIFICATION PROJECTS •

Coming into our school should feel wonderful and visually beautiful, so we’ve been working on a number of projects to liven up the space.

FRONT ENTRANCE PATIO
The first phase is the courtyard just upon entering the school, adjacent to the office.
Parent volunteers cleared weeds and brush, making room for a beautification which will include the following assorted flora:

Fire lily:shade growing
Fox Tail agave
Water feature with solar pump
Mexican lime tree
Candexrena
Day lily

Included in the facelift, hose stands will offer function to assist tidiness and a sculpture to will add depth to the view of the garden.

PAVERS
Earlier this year a water main broke out front of Sumac, creating a muddy patch. We’ve taken this opportunity to create something lasting and meaningful for the school: engraved pavers. Soon, we’ll be sharing a website where you can order your own engraved paver to celebrate your child’s graduation or well wishes to students as they walk in. All of the money raised will go to the PFA, which funds our STEM salaries, library and more enriching opportunities!

LVUSD Presents: THE Event

Box Tops for Education

They're everywhere and they’re valuable! Those pink box top cut-outs you find on many top brands of breakfast cereals and many other products are worth $1.00 for every 10 collected. With 350 families at Sumac, that money quickly adds up to a worthy sum. With your support, this is a simple way to contribute to Sumac’s continued success. Collect them all year long, but please turn in all you have been collecting NO LATER THAN MONDAY, so we can meet our next collection deadline!

Help make a difference at Sumac
Whether you want to help with a fundraising event or just a fun “community” event, help is always welcome. Please take a look at the list (perhaps grab a friend to help!) and let us know if you’d like to make something wonderful happen for the kids and families at Sumac!
