On October 16, 2009, the Save Our Schools (SOS) committee was formed and
we began efforts to save our school. Cordova Lane has provided decades of
high quality
education! It is the HEART of our community and located on one of the busiest
streets in the city of Rancho Cordova. For hundreds of cars to drive by our
school each day and to see it abandoned, would be heartbreaking. Cordova
Lane is not
only known for its exceptional reputation in our school district, but also
for it's dedicated, passionate and involved parents. We have 461 students.
We are
at 84% capacity enrollment. Several CHOICE students attend Cordova Lane.
This means they choose to attend our school over their home school. Cordova
Lane has
high Academic Performance Index (API) scores. We offer an award winning Drama
Program, the FLES program where our students learn Spanish as a second language,
and other unique programs.
Cordova Lane students have access to the STARS program on site and the Cordova
Community Preschool and Safe Harbor programs off site for before and after
school care. Many parents depend on these programs to safely walk their students
to
and from school. Both programs also work closely with Cordova Lane in terms
of preparation for entering Kindergarten and meeting the needs of students
outside
of the classroom. If we do not save our school, these vital programs may
no longer exist and parents will be forced to revisit their transportation
and daycare
plans.
Closed schools are NEVER good for a city. Property values may decrease, blight
may come to our neighborhood and families may leave. This will affect our
neighbors and businesses and most of all, our children! As an alternative
to closing our
school, our parents asked if we could raise $300,000 to save our school.
The board agreed to give us until March 1, 2010 to raise these funds. This
is a crazy,
extreme undertaking and amount to raise. However, we cannot put a price on
a GREAT education. We need to keep this EXCEPTIONAL and long standing school
OPEN.
Should we not reach our goal (we plan to!) we will designate a beneficiary
of these funds within our school district. WE NEED YOUR HELP! We have 90
days to
raise these funds. We need the help of our residents, businesses and families
from other schools to PLEASE help! We are appreciative of any donation and
all donations will be tax deductible.
COUGARS ROAR!!!
Thank you for your time and interest,
