One Form Per Family
Not hearing from your classroom?
We would love to keep you connected to your classroom and to the Foundation. The district is not able to pass along parent contact information, so this quick form is how your room parent knows how to find you.
It takes about a minute, and you choose what you opt into: classroom updates, the Foundation newsletter, or both. It also covers photo and media consent. Families with more than one student only fill it out once.

We invest nearly $800 per Eastbluff student.
Every dollar of your tax-deductible donation goes directly to helping our students.
Your participation is essential to make this happen.
Each day your child attends Eastbluff, they benefit from the investments the Foundation makes. Whether it's a tutor who wouldn't otherwise be there, an art program, or campus improvements, these opportunities simply would not exist without your generous support.
