INVEST in MOORE 
Campaign 2025-2026

INVEST in MOORE is one way you can join the tradition of excellence at JT Moore Middle School.  As we begin our 57th year, this annual campaign is the school’s LARGEST fundraising effort. Due to limited funding from MNPS, INVEST in MOORE is essential to many of the programs offered at JT Moore. The INVEST in MOORE campaign is incredibly meaningful each year, supporting our operating budget and providing the funding that enables us to fulfill a wide range of needs, including those that are unanticipated.

Our school needs cannot be met without your support. The JT Moore team is committed to raising well-rounded students who are prepared for high school and beyond.  The leadership and financial support that parents and the PTO provide ensures that we can continue to grow and thrive as a beloved community school. Click to INVEST now!

This year, our INVEST in MOORE campaign has set a goal of $175,000. 
Funds raised directly support:

  • Early morning study hall – Paid for by the PTO, this allows families to drop their child(ren) FREE OF CHARGE at 7:30 am daily.
  • IXL Subscription – This reinforces and strengthens our children’s ability to learn.  We have had the HIGHEST TCAP scores in 17 years!
  • NEW Behavior Reward system – Teachers and Administration will track and reward POSITIVE behavior and provide incentives for students to perform.
  • Instructional Support – Science experiment materials, AVID and IB training resources, Special education resources, mental health speakers, novels provided for every student during school wide novel studies, and Author visits to promote literacy and encourage reading.
  • Securely – this computer monitoring software allows teachers to view each student’s computer screen from one location to ensure students are on task and engaged in school related assignments. 
  • Teacher Appreciation – The PTO provides dinners before evening school events, lunches and even a coffee truck visit throughout the year, JT Moore gear to rep during the school year and more. 
  • Unexpected expenses – we reserve some money for items that we may not have budgeted for in the previous year, like Professional Development and other needs as they arise.  
  • Additional playground equipment:  Research shows that play is essential to development because it contributes to the cognitive, physical, social, and emotional well-being of children and youth. We hope to raise additional funds for more playground equipment for the side yard.  We have already secured a grant for over 25 mature trees to be planted.
