Contributions to Freestyle Academy
Contributions
Throughout the year, we provide activities beyond the normal curriculum to enhance learning such as:
- Fields trips to museums and local companies (SF MOMA, Adobe in SF, Sony Playstation, etc.)
- Open House and Exhibitions. In February, we host an Open House on our campus. Then in late May, we put on a Final Exhibition featuring all student projects throughout the year.
- Graduation. In late May or early June, Freestyle Academy honors our graduating Seniors with our own special BBQ Party and Graduation Ceremony.
- Guest speakers and community professionals come to classes to share knowledge, experience and provide advice. For example:
- Guest musicians to help students with their music productions
- Professional photographers to share with student their expertise, photo shoot tips, and software tricks
- Professional screenwriters to help students develop more engaging stories
- Professional film makers to share with students their reel, expertise, and advice on film productions
- Professional motion graphic artists and/or animators to help students develop better technical and story telling skills
We ask that each Freestyle Family contribute $100 (or more) to help with the costs of these extra activities.
How do you contribute?
- Cash - give to Mr. Florendo at Freestyle.
- PayPal, as a friend to avoid PayPal fees, to pay@freestyleacademy.rocks or paypal.me/FreestyleAcademyMVLA. Please make sure your student's name is on the memo line of the PayPal submission.
- Note: paypal.me/FreestyleAcademy goes to a Kite Surfing school in the Philippines so be careful about which Freestyle Academy you contribute to.
- Check made out to Freestyle Academy, not to LAHS or MVHS, and given to Mr. Florendo. Please make sure your student's name is on the memo line on the check.
- For corporate matching, a common work around for the problem that Freestyle Academy is not listed or not a 501c3 is to donate to the MVLA Foundation https://mvlafoundation.org/donate/ and provide a note to specifically direct the funds to Freestyle Academy. Thank you,
All contributions are tax deductible and a letter will be sent home from Freestyle for tax purposes.
Thank you for your support!
