Helping Houses- A California Wildfire Donation from the Heart

Thomas Elementary School 2nd and 3rd students created house magnets in art class to support victims of the California wildfires that lost their homes.  If you would like to support their work and the American Red Cross or the California Community Foundation's Wildfire Relief Fund, please visit the front office to make a donation and select a beautiful and meaningful handcrafted magnet.

*As Proud Members of the No Excuses University System of Schools, Thomas Elementary School supports atleast one local or national cause annually.  

Where do you want your tax dollars to go?

Arizona allows individual state income taxpayers to receive a tax credit of up to $200 and married couples filing jointly up to $400 for contributions made to public schools to support extracurricular activities. 

At Thomas we use this money to support school field trips, guest speakers, and extracurricular choir, art, and physical education initiatives.  

You have a choice. You can send all your tax dollars to the State or have some of them used directly to improve education in Flagstaff, at Thomas Elementary School.  We hope that you will consider supporting Thomas student programs this year.

For more information on AZ Educational Tax Credits please watch the video linked below.

To make donation to Thomas Elementary School, or another school of your choice, please stop by the front office, call 928-527-6041, or click the link below.

THANK YOU! 

* For a tax credit to be claimed for 2018 the donation must be postmarked or delivered by April 15, 2019. Credit card transactions must also be done by April 15, 2019.

Only One You Art Installation 

Every student at Thomas Elementary designed and painted a rock fish to contribute to our river of rocks in the courtyard. This work was inspired by the book "Only One You" by local author, Linda Kranz. Through the generous support of the  Assistance League of Flagstaff, each student also received a copy of the book.  Thank you to everyone who contributed and supported the artistic vision of Ms. Kathy Marron, art teacher extraodinaire! Our courtyard is a more cheerful place because of YOU!
