PASS THE HAT
The stress-free fundraiser! KJH PTSA has a unique way to ask you for your financial support. We hold a simple "Pass the Hat" fundraiser. We ask that you bring your checkbook to the Open House in September and make a tax deductible donation to PTSA. Your donation will help support student programs aimed at enriching academics and social connections, as well as many other programs for parents and staff. The suggested donation is $35 per family but please consider sponsoring another family with a donation of $70.
