Welcome to the Bullis-Purissima Elementary School Foundation Website"Empowering Innovation in Public School Education" BPESF is a 501(c)(3) public charity and donations are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law. Our tax identification number is 48-1298690. Currently,
we are assisting Bullis Charter School in covering over 50% of its
operating budget through tax deductible donations to our Annual
Campaign.** Our
fundraising target this year is $2.3m.
Help us meet our goal by donating
today. Over
85% of Bullis Charter School’s operating expenses support teacher
and administrative salaries, teacher training, books and supplies. During
the 2011-2012 school year it will cost $11,131 to educate each BCS
student, comparable to that of Los Altos School District (LASD) public
schools. As a public school BCS receives approximately $6,000 per
student in public funding versus roughly $8,874 per student received
by other local LASD public schools. This shortfall in public funding
results in a Base
Funding Gap of $5,000 per student.
Despite these funding challenges and spending less than many other local public elementary schools, Bullis Charter School continues to offer its students a top rated, child focused, innovative education. Join us in preserving and protecting this award winning school by making a donation today! Every dollar makes a difference in the future of Bullis Charter School. ** Charitable deductions may be subject to limitations for some taxpayers. Consult your tax advisor for details.
