2024/25 FOH Budget
September 2024 revision: ensure there are enough funds for the ASE program, and to recognize higher revenue from Southeast Seattle Schools Fundraising Alliance (SESSFA) than was originally assumed.
May 2024 approval: unanimous vote at FOH’s May 2024 general membership meeting. The largest change was the addition of grant to the school to provide a math instructional position at the school. Beyond that position the PTA budget is focused on longstanding FOH priorities including in school events, After School Enrichment (ASE), support for student programs and field trips, as well family support.
Note: PTA expenses for in school activities are approved by Principal Flavors before the expense occurs to ensure that the help the PTA is providing to the school fits within the school’s priorities.

Next school year budget process
Every spring, the Budget Committee assembles a proposed budget for the following school year. The Committee provides a Budget Request Form (or download and print one here) to school staff, parents, and partners who have been funded by FOH in the past.
If you are the leader of a program or activity that was or will be funded by FOH, please contact us.
The budget committee will assemble the requests, estimate our available funds for next year, and present a draft budget at the April FOH Online Meeting for discussion. We anticipate leaving this meeting with clarification questions for applicants and affected stakeholders.
FOH is scheduled to formally vote on the budget at our General Meeting in May.
