Delano Elementary School-Partners In Education (DES-PIE) needs your time and talent to continue to make our school the success that it is today. Parents, teachers and our community help raise over $45,000 every year for our students by holding our own carnivals, family fun nights, having our one and only Fall Fundraiser, collecting Box Tops, Target Guest Cards, DQ Nights; just to name a few.
With our funds, we have proudly purchased state of the art technology for every classroom, field trips, books/magazines, school-wide residency programs and much more! Our newest initiative over the next several years will be to help purchase materials needed to create a Leveled Library system for our teachers. A Leveled Library system enables teachers to have access to books at each child’s reading level for a particular lesson, which allows teachers to best meet the individual needs of each student.
