| Capital Campaign |
|---|
| The Tempe Prep and the Foundation Boards are continuing their efforts to raise funds to rebuild the 400 Building. The initial budget for the project is now approximately $475,000. The plan proposes (1) a new, properly furnished art room, (2) a new, properly outfitted Chemistry and Earth Science lab, (3) a new, properly outfitted Biology and Life Science lab, and (4) five "seminar" classrooms of sufficient size to accommodate 22 students without the "squeeze" we currently feel on a daily basis. The 400 building is in challenging condition and its classrooms are the least adequate of all those on the campus.
The Capital Campaign is underway and we have raised $118,250 in pledges and donations. You can see the Capital Campaign Case Statement here. In addition, our new video that describes Tempe Prep can be viewed here. We continue to receive extraordinary help (as is often the case) from Tempe Prep parents, in this case from architects and designers Brad Schultz, Zaha Ttsikopoulos and Gene Kniaz, and our stalwart volunteer, Dave Maza, of Remodel Tempe. The draft construction drawings are complete and will be submitted to the City of Tempe for the “permit” process within a few days. Once we receive permits, we will ready our campus for the summer campus rehabilitation. Now we merely need to raise another $332,750! |

Raise Funds for your Student’s Fees and for TPA: Use a Fry’s Rechargeable Gift Card when Shopping at Fry’s!
This program costs nothing; it just gives some of your grocery dollars to your student’s account and to the school. This is a great opportunity offered to our community, and the more people that participate, the greater the benefit. The fine print: These cards are just like cash, do not lose them. When your child leaves the school, the amount earned cannot be refunded to you and as such, if your child is no longer enrolled when the rebate check is received by the school, the full amount of the rebate will be credited to the school’s general fund. The amount earned can be used for any of your children. These funds can be used to pay for any of your child’s future fees – please do not leave unpaid fees sitting in your account waiting for the rebate check. Pay the fees as they come due, the rebate will post to your child’s account when it comes in and it can pay fees that hit later. Please call or e-mail Lori Beene if you have any questions. 480-730-6920 or ldbeene@cox.net Use this program to pay for your groceries to earn funds for the general fund and your student’s account AND register your VIP card to participate in the cool cash program which benefits the PO.Below is a list of gift cards that can be purchased at Fry's through the rechargable Fry's gift card.
