Investing in Our Future: The Impact of Fit Fest
Fit Fest is our most critical event of the year, generating 70% of our total annual fundraising. It serves as the primary engine bridging the widening gap between the bare-minimum basics provided by the district and the robust, well-rounded education our children deserve.
As LBUSD budgets face increasing pressure and continued cuts, the reality is that many of our most essential in-classroom enrichment programs receive zero public funding. These are not just after-school extras; they are vital, daily learning experiences – from hands-on S.T.E.A.M. and the arts to our outdoor garden classroom – that rely 100% on the PTA.
Your support of Fit Fest ensures that these core programs remain a permanent part of every student’s daily curriculum at Kettering. Without this community funding, these programs simply will not exist.
