Spring Social: Surfin’ Safari
On Saturday, April 27th, 2019 the Crocker/Riverside PTO will host its Annual Spring Social. The Spring Social is the biggest parents-only social event of the year. More importantly, it is one of the largest fundraisers for the school.
Last year’s “Denim & Diamonds” event was a giant success – live music, fun games, great food, and over $30,000 was raised for our school. And we want this year’s event to be even better!

Surfin’ Safari
April 27, 2019
Don’t miss the Surfin’ Safari — the school’s biggest (and most bodacious!) fundraiser of the year!
The money raised supports a breadth of educational programs for all Crocker/Riverside students including classroom enrichment, field trips, and music, science, computer, and arts programs. Funds raised at this year’s event will ensure that these programs can continue — and potentially even expand — next year!
Here are some key event details:
Date: Saturday, April 27th, 6-10pm at B’nai Israel Temple
Price: $35/person (goes up to $40/person on April 1). Scholarships are available.
What: Live and silent auctions, catered food and no-host bar (including margaritas!), Wall of Wine, raffle and other games, live music by local surf rock band, the Funicellos, and more fun than you can shake a stick at!
All proceeds benefit our students!
District Budget Update
The Sacramento City Unified School District announced in a video statement on Wednesday that it has managed to find millions in cost savings, with most cuts being made away from the classroom. However, Superintendent Aguilar and Board President Jessie Ryan warned that these cuts will not be enough to entirely address the district’s structural deficit.
