AEF supports AUSD schools by providing programs and resources to enhance the student experience.

The mission of the Alpine Education Foundation (AEF) is to provide financial resources beyond the scope of the School District's regular budget to sustain, improve, and stimulate new educational opportunities for students, teachers and other staff members of the greater Alpine area in order to prepare today’s youth for the future.

The Foundation does not attempt to replace tax support for the schools, rather it aggressively works to supplement, enrich and add to the accomplishments that already distinguish our schools.

The Foundation is committed to preserving the quality of the current educational programs and facilitating enrichment education. It seeks to provide an alternative method of support for our schools through its commitment to raising funds and by using tax-deductible donations to directly benefit and support the schools and our children.

The Foundation seeks to develop new and improve existing relationships with individuals, groups, and businesses by providing a means for them to support school activities and programs for which they have a special interest in through tax-deductible donations.

The deadline to turn in apparel requests is fast approaching. Make sure to reach out to PTA for membership and apparel questions.

All AUSD students will begin to take our new i-Ready diagnostic assessment this week. This assessment is given in both math and reading and takes the place of our MAP test. Once the students complete the diagnostic, they are given a personalized learning plan with skills practice within the i-Ready program. The assessment results also help the teachers drive their instruction as they will have a clear understanding of where each child is performing academically. More information about i-Ready can be found here.

Please make sure you are sending a refillable water bottle daily with your child. We HIGHLY suggest that your child always has an extra one at school that they fill up from the water bottle refilling stations.
