Yellow Jackets, there's still time to make an impact today! 💛🖤

the moments that set your path,
the friendships and experiences that still stay with you.

Tonight, you have the chance to pass that same impact forward.

Every gift to Perrysburg Schools Foundation helps create opportunities for students who are sitting in the same classrooms you once did—dreaming big, discovering their passions and relying on a community that shows up for them.

💫 About the Full Experience Fund
Hundreds of Perrysburg families face financial hardship each year. The Full Experience Fund, created by the Perrysburg Schools Foundation and the CQ CommUNITY, helps students fully participate in the experiences that make being a Yellow Jacket so special.

🎶 About The Bands
Formed in 2023, The Clipboards are a group of Perrysburg teachers who perform with no formal musical training — learning alongside their students in The Protractors! Together, they’ve already rocked stages for over 4,000 people across schools, community events, and more.

Let’s fill the theater, lift up our community, and make sure every student has the full experience! 💛🖤
