The Claremont Fund
The Claremont PTA is a parent-led non-profit that partners with school leadership to help CMS kids learn, grow, and thrive. We rely on Claremont families like you to get involved in whatever ways work for you: volunteering, staying informed, and/or contributing donations if you’re able.
What does the Claremont PTA support? Just a few examples:
- Teacher and staff salaries
- Math, Technology and Special Education
- School events and field trips
- After school clubs and sports teams
- Office and classroom supplies
- Family communications like the Knightline emails
Our budget for this year is about $190,000, and the large majority comes from donations during the Annual Fund drive that’s now underway. Please click here to donate as much as is comfortable for your family.
Whether you can contribute $2,000, $200, $20, or something in between, you’re making a real difference for all Claremont students—and you’re showing that Oakland public schools thrive when our community steps up.
Check if your employer offers gift matching, or make your donations recur monthly in Paypal to spread them out. If you have any questions or feedback, just email fundraising@claremontms.org—we’re parents like you and we’re eager to hear.
Thank you for your generosity and Go Knights!
Every family, Every dollar, counts!
