We are excited to report that Carlmont Academic Foundation (CAF) raised $416K to support Carlmont students during the 2026-27 school year. These donations during Giving Week 2025 made significant progress towards our annual goal of $1,475,000 — the amount we need to maintain our current level of support for our Scots during the next academic year.
We are grateful to the parents, family members, local community members, and business partners who have chosen to invest in an excellent public high school education. We’d also like to congratulate the lucky donors who will be going on a campus tour with Principal Buckland-Murray!
If you haven’t done so already, please consider donating today. Your contributions will still give us time to make an early commitment to Carlmont and put Principal Buckland-Murray in position to recruit the best teachers for the 2026-27 school year.
With gratitude,
The CAF Board & Volunteers and the Students of Carlmont High School
