<P class="fontlook">The 2009-2010 Annual Fund is ahead of last year! Our Parent Participation is 51% out of a 100% goal and we have just gone over the 75% mark of our $700,000 goal with a record setting $583,676.07 as of January 14,2010. Nacira Gomez and her Annual Fund team met last week to strategize on reaching 100% participation in each grade.  If you have yet to make your pledge or gift, you will hear from your Annual Fund Team members very soon.  Please participate today and help us reach our goal of 100% participation.  A BIG THANK YOU to those of you who have already participated and have made a difference at Carrollton.
