Onahan School's One Computer At A Time- Frequently Asked Questions
* I would like to donate, but I cannot afford $100 per student, can I still donate?
YES! $100 is only a suggestion; NO amount is too small or too big!
* Is there a deadline?
11/16/12 is the deadline for those wanting to earn the $100 out of uniform pass (1 per
$100 donation).
Please don’t feel like you must donate by then, if that does not work with your budget,
feel free to do it before January 31 if possible.
* Can I break out my donation into smaller amounts?
YES! We understand everyone’s budget is different, please do what works best for your
family.
* I cannot afford to donate, can I ask others?
YES! Please use the Keyboard flyer to help gather donations from family and
friends.
* When are we getting the computers?
Our goal is to have them ready for the completion of the annex and to start the 2nd
semester. (Beginning of February)
* Why do the computers cost so much?
1. We are required to use a preapproved vendor through CPS, cannot shop the Sunday
sale papers.
2. All CPS computers must have certain software installed.
3. We are purchasing Mac computers.
THANK YOU to those who have already donated!
As of 11/9/12, we have raised $7,200 but we have a long way to go!
Onahan needs your help! Each year, parents are asked to complete an application for
free and reduced lunch. The number of students receiving free and reduced lunch at
our school is at a percentage that does not warrant extra funding from CPS.
Unfortunately, the district’s funding formula and our lower percentage of students
receiving free and reduced lunch causes us, the families of Onahan, to finance the
“extras” that many schools take for granted. To ensure that we continue to fulfill our
mission to the Onahan school community, we have come up with a fundraising idea,
"Making a Difference in Our Kids' Lives, One Computer at a Time." Our students need
& deserve these computers. It is up to us to support our school. Please consider
donating to this important cause. No amount is too small! Together we can achieve
our goal. The students of Onahan School appreciate your consideration.
THANK YOU,
PTO Board
