Please come to the last Community Meeting of the year on Tuesday, May 27, 6pm in the campus library! Please note the meeting date switch to avoid conflict with end-of-year performances. This end-of-year celebratory event (held jointly with FoSOTA) will honor our departing officers, committee members, and faculty and also is a chance to hear about our Seniors’ capstone projects.

We will hold one last brief PTSA meeting, so come to the campus library on the 27th with questions for Principal Kim and hear from our committee leads as well as Student Government. A light dinner will be provided; students and children are warmly welcome to join!

2024-25 Fundraising
The 2024-2025 Annual Appeal to fund our Artists-in-Residence Program has been an absolute success, raising well beyond its goal of $250,000! This special program is one of the key offerings that makes Ruth Asawa SOTA truly unique. Though we receive support from SFUSD, this doesn’t completely cover our program cost, which is why we need help from our community.
Please consider making a gift to support these working artists who are dedicated educators helping to shape our young talents. If you have any questions about the appeal, or fundraising at Ruth Asawa SOTA in general, please feel free to reach out to Elizabeth Lani at lanielizabethjean@gmail.com from the PTSA Fundraising Team.
Thank you for supporting our incredible high school!
