GW Fund-raising

Updated on April 26, 2010

Support for Marjie Lane

The IB program faces not only a challenge, but an emergency because DPS and GW budget cuts have placed the IB Foundation on the hook for 2/3 of Marjie Lane’s salary for next year. That is a lot of money, and so we come to you!

As you know, as the assistant to Suzi Geimer, Marjie is simply essential to IB operations, and does much more (counseling, special projects, etc.) than her job description). Ask your kid about her help and support. Last year, we were able to save Marjie’s position through a special arrangement with Principal Goldstein, but this time around, the school has informed us that we have to pick up most of the funding for the position.

I know I came to you last year with a similar plea, but we by pulling together, we can raise the funds to save Marjie’s position.

We come to you for help!! In the past, we’ve launched dedicated fund-raisers; one for clickers in chemistry classes worked beautifully, as parents stepped forward to complete that drive. The IB Foundation is now launching another fund-raiser, this time to save Marjie’s job.

Please give what you can in this dedicated drive to maintain the standards we have come to expect from the GW IB program. Without Margie, excellence will be in great jeopardy.

Write and send checks to save Margie’s position to:

OR, tell the cashier you want to donate those 10 cents to George Washington High School!

Our donation to George Washington High School will support their efforts to recycle and preserve the environment, as well as go to the school renovations project.
