Chabot: Way to Grow! is the Chabot PTA's ambitious $300,000 capital campaign to fund the completion of Chabot’s campus master plan, successfully completed in June 2010.

Chabot Elementary has received $17.5 million from Measure B, the largest allocation of any school in the Oakland Unified School District. Thanks to Measure B funds, our new multi-purpose building and new library and media lab in our renovated auditorium were completed in time for the 2009-10 school year, and the new K-2 classroom building was completed in the spring of 2010. Measure B funds, however, does not fully cover completion of the campus master plan.

To date, the Chabot: Way to Grow! campaign has funded new library and media lab furniture and equipment. During the 2010-11 school year, Chabot: Way to Grow! will fund reconstructing our school's signature garden program;  new playground equipment for the upper yard; and landscaping throughout the school grounds.

The Chabot: Way to Grow! committee thanks our community, including parents, neighbors, businesses and foundations, for their generous support and commitment in helping us achieve our fundraising goal.
