Carl Hankey International Education Foundation

CHIEF is so grateful for all of the amazing donations collected so far in support of IB! Our online silent auction is now LIVE!

https://www.winningcause.org/carlhankey

Bidding is easy – just sign up as a user, and enter your maximum bid on an item – then let the online site do the work for you! No need to stalk your favorite item — if you’re out-bid, the system will automatically increase your bid based on the parameters you set up! Simple!

But don’t wait, because bidding ends on Saturday during our 80s vs 90s House Party! Attendance is not necessary to win! So even if you can’t make the party (but honestly, why would you?) you can still support the school with your winning bid! Winning bids are tax deductible

So get started now and place your bids!

A huge thank you to our Hankey families, friends and business donors! Hawk Trot 2017 was a huge success – your hard work has helped raise over $18,000 for Hankey’s IB program!

Classroom Reward Winners!

Middle School SOAR – Mr. Paterno’s SOAR class was our top fundraising classroom, raising CHIEF $1,422!  Students received a pancake breakfast hosted by CHIEF and Mrs. Aguilera!

Elementary Classroom – Miss Cantacessi’s 1st grade class was our top-earning elementary classroom, raising $1,990. Miss Cantacess’s class will enjoy a movie & popcorn at lunchtime before the Winter Break.

* Mrs Peterson’s 1st grade class came so close to Miss Cantacessi’s class, that CHIEF has decided to include Mrs Peterson’s class in the lunchtime fun as well!

Last Friday, Mr. Paterno

GEAR UP FOR HAWK TROT!

Need a new pair of running shoes to show your stuff at Hawk Trot? Road Runner Sports is offering all Hankey students a 10% discount on all footwear (20% if you’re a VIP) along with a FREE 1-on-1 Shoe Dog Foot Analysis. Earn $$ for Hankey and get great pair new kicks! Make sure to bring the FLYER with you on WEDNESDAY, NOV. 8 to get your discount!

Get your running shoes ready, because Hankey’s 7^th Annual Hawk Trot jog-a-thon FUNdraiser to support our International Baccalaureate (IB) program will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 15!

CUSD provides support for Hankey’s IB program through staffing and professional development, but the additional costs – exceeding $90,000 a year – are self-funded by our school community. So we’re running to raise money for programs such as IB teacher training/planning time, elementary Spanish, Art Masters (K-8), YMCA PE and IB program fees; as well as classroom supplies & resources.

Students will be bringing home a packet TODAY with details about how to collect funds to support the IB program. But you can help them get started now by sending family and friends an email from our PledgeStar online fundraising page! Here’s how:
