About friends of rossmoor (FOR)

Friends of Rossmoor (FOR) is a parent-founded, non-profit organization that works side-by-side with parents, administrators, teachers, and PTA to raise funds that enrich the academic foundation for all Rossmoor Elementary School students.

It takes committed community support to take our great school to the next level!

FOR’s main purpose is to support the STEM Program (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) at Rossmoor. We do this by funding the Rossmoor STEM Lab which benefits all our Knights in TK-5th grade.  

We have been fortunate enough to successfully fund our STEM lab for the last seven years! 

FOR, which represents the families of Rossmoor Elementary, needs to raise a minimum of $55,000 annually to continue to fund our STEM Program which includes teacher salary and STEM supplies. This year LAEF has generously donated $10,000 to the STEM program here at Rossmoor! 

FOR is so happy to have our amazing STEM lab teacher, back in the STEM lab creating magic through her incredible STEM lessons. With your support, FOR will continue funding the STEM Program, classroom art supplies, the House system, and books and materials for the Media Center. 

One of the highlights of the year is our adult only KNIGHTLIFE Event. 

Save the date for KNIGHTLIFE 2024 - April 20, 2024!  

Along with Knightlife, other fundraisers that support FOR include Teacher for the Day and Teacher Time. Also, don’t forget about ordering your See’s Candies during our Yum-Raising fundraisers.

Please consider becoming a FRIENDS OF ROSSMOOR Sponsor or Funding the Future by making a tax-deductible donation to ensure the STEM program remains at our school for years to come. Every dollar counts!  

Keep an eye out for FOR news and upcoming events in the weekly Rossmoor Monday Messages. We look forward to having more of our parents join our meetings, getting involved, and helping out throughout the year.

We’d love to have lots of parents join our meetings, get involved, and help out throughout the year.
