New to Fairmount or back for another year, this is the PTA's corner of the internet. Here's what's coming up, and the links worth bookmarking for the year.
A full week of online bidding, running right alongside Fairmount Goes All In β then the whole thing culminates in a live auction at the party on November 13.
Getaways, experiences, local favorites and a few things you won't see anywhere else. Sneak peeks coming soon β start deciding now what you're going after.
Own a business, or have something great to offer? We're still building the catalog, and every item makes the night bigger.

Tell your server or cashier "Fundraiser Spirit Night". There's no online code, so carry-out has to be ordered in person.

π Every date β school and PTA β is in Upcoming Events in the sidebar, and you can subscribe to it from there.
π Proudly serving our Firebirds in Golden, Colorado. We're your all-volunteer PTA β a 501(c)(3) partnering with families, teachers and staff to make every child's potential a reality.
Here's how this year's budget breaks down.
Wondering why we ask you to join and to give? Your $22 membership doesn't buy the field trip. It buys the organization that makes the field trip possible β the legal standing, the insurance, the volunteers, the vote. Then the other 95% of our budget pays for the trip.
Every family makes Fairmount stronger β whether you join, give, or lend an hour. It all lands on our kids. Every Child. One Voice. Go Firebirds! π₯
