SchoolPower is the parent volunteer-based, non-profit education foundation that has raised money for Laguna Beach public schools since 1981. SchoolPower’s mission is to enrich the education and support the well-being of all children in the Laguna Beach Unified School District.
We achieve our mission by helping to support a wide range of programs at our schools, including academics, athletics, visual and performing arts, music, STEM and digital literacy, field trips, service learning, and social emotional support.
Each year SchoolPower contributes to the four Laguna Beach public schools — El Morro Elementary, Top of the World Elementary, Thurston Middle School and Laguna Beach High School — through our annual gift, the Fund-a-Need, and teacher grants, as well as donor-designated funds that go directly to classrooms, programs, PTAs, athletics and boosters. A percentage of the annual money raised also sustains the SchoolPower Endowment Foundation, which supports large, ongoing grants to our schools and the long-term sustainability of SchoolPower. This allows our talented teachers and administrators to dream big and provide a world-class public education for all Laguna Beach students, as they grow from TK through 12th grade.
