Summary

Tommy Green, president of the Del Mar Schools Education Foundation, said early donations have totaled $24,000 and emphasized STEAM plus priorities (science, innovation/technology, art, music, PE) as key to sustaining student programs.

Tommy Green, president of the Del Mar Schools Education Foundation, reported that the foundation has raised about $24,000 so far this school year and outlined priorities for the district’s STEAM plus program. "We've actually raised $24,000 which is really good for doing absolutely nothing," Green said, noting fundraising will ramp up in October when the foundation’s campaign begins in earnest.

Green described STEAM plus as a package of five priorities — science, innovation/technology, art, music and physical education — and stressed the role of parent and community sponsorships in maintaining those offerings as students advance to middle and high school.
