Community committee raises funds to send every 7th grader to Wolf Ridge
Summary
A parent-led committee reports full fundraising coverage for 20 families and proposes a district-held general fund and a $30/month payment plan so every 7th grader can attend Wolf Ridge in March 2026.
A volunteer committee reported on steps it has taken to make the Wolf Ridge educational trip accessible to every 7th grader next March. Becky, speaking for the Wolf Ridge committee, said three summer fundraisers and business and alumni donations allowed the group to fully fund 20 families so far.
"Through those three fundraisers, I am very excited to share that every family who participated raised 100% of the funds they needed," Becky said, describing bake sales, bingo nights and community events. The committee proposed a general Wolf Ridge fund to cover scholarships and supplies and promoted a $30-per-month payment plan option for families that prefer installments.
Committee members said they will reconvene in January to identify remaining needs and continue outreach; their goal is to ensure no student misses the trip for lack of funds. Board members praised the quick volunteer response and suggested the district continue logistical support while the committee manages the fundraising and scholarship distribution.
