How CAF Helps Carlmont

I hope you and your Scot(s) are ready for a great new school year! I’m very happy to announce that Carlmont Academic Foundation (CAF) met its $1.2 million FY24 fundraising goal, fully funding our commitment to Carlmont staff and programs for this school year. We are so grateful to you—our generous donors—for your support. 

This year, CAF has changed our per-student recommended donation to $1,600, allowing us to provide Carlmont High School with the funding needed for its exceptional programs even as SUHSD costs rise in line with the overall economy. CAF’s mission is to enable the best possible experience for your Scot by supporting smaller classes, increased class choice, more individualized counseling, college and career prep, extra academic support, and much more. You can get more details about what CAF funds on our website.

Remember: The best time to donate or pledge is early in the school year. Get ready for Carlmont Giving Week in mid-September, during which we expect to make significant progress on our fundraising activities for this fiscal year. Also, watch out for information about the Bagpiper Bash, CAF’s annual, adults-only party on September 14.

Finally: You can inspire other families to give! Please let us know why you donate to CAF using this simple form.

Go Scots!
