The Condit Giving Tree: Family

The Condit Giving Tree (TCGT) is the PTO’s annual fundraising campaign that bridges the gap between district funding and providing our children with the Condit we know and love.  We are right above 50% of our annual goal. Every dollar of these contributions goes towards creating our children’s everyday experience at Condit. Your support makes a tremendous impact on our goal of ensuring that every student receives the best possible education.

The Condit Giving Tree campaign is essential for supporting fundamental aspects of our school, including

  • Enrichment programs and resources 
  • Faculty support
  • Supplemental curriculum
  • Instructional support
  • Technical support
  • Classroom support: teacher wish lists; classroom supplies & needs
  • Chicken coop & learning garden
  • Science Fair
  • Leadership initiatives & programming
  • Community building via events & special programs: Fall Carnival, International Festival, Book Fair, Boosterthon, Fri-Yays, Gala, Socials, Green Generations, Art Car, Green & White Days, and more!
  • Academic clubs
  • Campus improvement projects
  • And so much more!

These programs are possible because of the generosity of our community. We realize you have many opportunities when it comes to supporting the community, and we thank you in advance for considering and choosing Condit to support. 

For your convenience, The Condit Giving Tree campaign offers the option to contribute monthly payments for up to 8 months. We ask that you give what you can so that our children can continue to benefit from being part of the Condit community.

Donate to The Condit Giving Tree

If you have any questions about how to give, or how these funds are used to support Condit, please reach out to our VP of Fundraising, Lindsey Hudlow. For more information, visit The Condit Giving Tree (Family).

*NEW* Condit Play Club before school

Would your kids like to play with their friends before school? Mine, too! That's why we are starting Condit Play Club. Drop your kids off, they get to start their day with play, and then they head straight into school when Condit Play Club ends. 

When & where? Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:50 AM-7:20 AM on the Condit Basketball court. 

How does it work? Volunteer parents will be supervising and students will have access to the school if they are tired of playing. 

What do I need to do? A signed permission slip required to register; registration is limited to 30 kids (first permission slip signed, first served), and only 1st-5th graders are eligible.

If your kid would love to start his or her day with play, contact ConditPlayClub@gmail.com for permission slip and more information.
