In order to keep these programs (and more) running, we need your financial help. Cherry Chase, along with other public schools in California, continues to face budget challenges that affect staffing and district-funded programs. As a parent group, the Cherry Chase PTA has voted to support the teachers and the school programs that we know immensely enrich our children’s educational experience. Reducing the adverse impact of the current budget crisis continues to be our top financial priority.
