Donate to CREST and Student Clubs

CREST Bioscience and Engineering students participated in their respective state and national CTSO championships this past spring and summer.

However, it takes a lot of money to send all these students to their competitions. The approximate cost to send each student is $1200.  Please consider helping support our students. You can donate in several ways, Extracurricular Tax Credit Donations to HOSA and SkillsUSA, and donations to HOSA and SkillsUSA club accounts.  You may donate at the Trojan Corner online store.

On behalf of the students and staff of the CREST program, thank you for your support all year and for anything you can do to help these student compete at the next level. And lastly, thank you for sending your children to us in the CREST program. We are grateful and humbled at your trust in what we do.
