Fundraising
Building our Skinner North community and providing our teachers the resources they need to help our children reach for the stars are pretty big goals. We can get there, step by step, with the participation of our entire community. Learn more about our main fundraisers here and donate now!
Starry Night
Starry Night by FoSN, is our adult-only, ticketed event designed to strengthen our community and raise money for professional development, curriculum, field trips, technology, facility improvements, and classroom supplies to help our children reach for the stars!
