Curley K-8 Auditorium Campaign: The Curley School Parent Council (SPC) is working to raise $25,000 as 2018 comes to an end to make improvements to the auditorium. Given our commitment to the performing arts, we would like to make the following investments:

• New audio equipment including new speakers, amplifier, and supporting gear
• Enhanced lighting
• Sound-enhancing materials for the walls and ceiling
• Repairs to seating on the main floor
• Assess costs and create action plan to restore the balcony to use with new seats and safety railings

We need your support. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation in support of the Curley K-8’s Auditorium Campaign. Give online via Paypal (www.paypal.me/curleyk8), send in cash/check (payable to: Friends of the Curley) to your child’s teacher, or mail your check to: Curley K-8 School SPC, 40 Pershing Road, Jamaica Plain, MA 02130 Attn: Curley SPC Auditorium.

We deeply appreciate your support and commitment to revitalizing the Curley School auditorium! Visit www.curleyk8.com to learn more about this campaign. Thank you!

Winter Coat Drive UPDATE: Thank you to all the families who have donated winter gear to the Curley School as part of our coat drive. We have received an incredible quantity of winter wear that we are working on getting to those students and families in need.  We are currently at capacity in terms of storage and display space so we ask that all donations be held until further notice. We so appreciate your generosity and will reach back out to our community when we’re ready for more! THANK YOU for keeping Curley kids warm and safe this season!

School Preview Time: It is that time again! Families will be choosing schools for SY 2019-2020. We will host three events here at Curley for perspective families. We are looking for current Curley families to support these three events and share with families about your experience as at Curley K-8. Please reach out to Arusha Hollister if you are available at arusha_h@yahoo.com.
