WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
Proceeds from Fiesta support the Jackson Annual Fund, a parent-led commitee that bridges the gap between what the district provides and what our students need — including safety aides, academic intervention support, library staffing, garden and cooking classes, field trips, and enrichment programs. With ongoing district budget cuts and funding uncertainty, the Annual Fund plays a critical role in helping sustain these programs and respond to emerging needs.
