We’re excited to introduce and celebrate some of the Burlingame families who are stepping up to become donors and support our strong public schools. Each year, as eighth grade families move on to high school, our board and volunteers start the work of reaching out to incoming TK, kindergarten, and early elementary families to educate them on the impact of the annual BCE grant and the importance of becoming new donors.
As our community continues to grow, we’re thrilled to connect with young families, and partner in the work to raise the funding needed to provide an exceptional educational experience for our children. In the quotes below, you can read why these new families felt it was important to contribute.
"We support the BCE because we understand that our support directly impacts our students’ academic experience and learning environment. We want our students to have an enriching class experience that requires the teachers and programs to give them an impactful and superior education."
The Fong Family
Hoover Elementary
"It’s simple! A no-brainer, and straightforward for us! We support the BCE because it bridges today's educational gaps, building our children's brighter future."
The Saxena Family
Washington Elementary
"We support the BCE because we know our children's education and school experience is enhanced by the additional teachers the BCE funds. Our sixth grader is able to continue his Mandarin education thanks to BCE funding. We moved to Burlingame for the great schools, and want to do our part ensuring their continued excellence."
The Haase Family
Hoover Elementary
"We support BCE because we truly want to do our part in helping make the Burlingame schools the best they can be. We love our neighborhood and this community, and we feel so blessed to live here."
The Ramirez Family Hoover Elementary
"We support BCE because we believe in investing in our children’s future and creating opportunities for every student in the district. By contributing, we’re helping to ensure that our schools have the resources they need to provide the best education possible, so our son and his classmates can thrive both in and out of the classroom. Here’s our son, proudly sporting his Burlingame Soccer Club uniform, ready for another exciting season! We believe in supporting the community that supports him, both on and off the field."
The Tejeda Family Washington Elementary
"We moved across the country and chose Burlingame because of the amazing school district. We support the BCE because of the strength of the community around the schools that BCE nurtures, and recognize its crucial role in making BSD schools exceptional."
