We’re excited to announce this year's Community Partnerships Program—a wonderful way for families and businesses to support our school while gaining visibility within our community. This program is essential in helping fund key initiatives such as our International Baccalaureate (IB) program, field trips, and other enrichment opportunities that make Wharton Dual Language Academy unique.
Our PTO community is coming together with the shared goal of raising $300,000 to support the spending that strengthens every student’s educational experience. The support the PTO provides to our school--from IB fees to field trip transportation fees, and from movie nights to class supplies--averages out to a spend of $400 per student a year. Every contribution—big or small—makes a lasting difference when we all join in.
If you own, manage a business, or know of a business interested in partnership, we invite you to consider a partnership with us a business sponsor. To help us connect families with your business, please update your Membership Toolkit profile with your business details.
There are two main ways to get involved:
-
Business Sponsorships: Highlight your business while supporting our school.
-
Family Giving: Show your family’s dedication to enriching our students’ education.
Every gift—large or small—directly impacts the quality of programs we provide. Thank you for helping us build a stronger Wharton community! If you have any questions, would like more information, or are willing to coordinate an in-kind donation with an FMV equivalent to one of our sponsorship levels, please reach out to us at sponsorships@whartonpto.org.
