WCEF Partnership

Welcome to the 2025-26 school year!

When you donate to the Walnut Creek Education Foundation (WCEF) and by joining the Walnut Heights PTA, you're supporting our school! Your donations to WCEF are vital to enhance your student's education beyond what the state funds.

California ranks 28th in the country in per student funding resulting in only a basic education. The programs, teachers, and classes that make Tice Creek special—weekly art, music, science lab, library, and middle school electives—are made possible through donations to WCEF.

The Walnut Heights PTA plays a crucial role in building community, organizing events, and supporting our exceptional teachers and staff and is part of a larger state association. To maintain these valuable programs and services, we kindly request families to contribute to both WCEF and the PTA this year. The suggested donation to meet our 2025-26 goal is $825 per student annually (or $69 per student monthly) to WCEF and a contribution to PTA. However, what matters most is a united community coming together to give and volunteer whatever we can.
