Who We Are

A community coming together for our kids

The Mira Vista Foundation is a newly forming parent-run, volunteer-driven nonprofit. We're here to fund enrichment programs that go beyond what the district can provide — and to build a stronger sense of community around our school.

We're inspired by neighboring school foundations like the Madera Elementary Foundation and the Kensington Education Foundation, who have built thriving programs for their school communities right here in West Contra Costa.

We're just getting started — and we'd love for you to help shape what we become.

Our Mission

Enriching education for every Mira Vista student

We raise funds to support programs that enhance the classroom experience, expand access to arts and sciences, and strengthen the community that makes Mira Vista special.

What We Support

Programs that make a difference

We aim to fund enrichment programs and resources not covered by the district budget. Here's what we have in mind:

Arts & Music

Visual arts, music instruction, and creative programs that give every child a way to express themselves.

Science & STEM

Hands-on science, technology access, and inquiry-based programs that spark curiosity and critical thinking.

Literacy & Library

Books, reading support, and a well-stocked library so every student finds stories that speak to them.

Garden & Outdoors

School garden programs that connect students with nature, nutrition, and hands-on learning.

Physical Education

Active play, fitness, and wellness programs that support healthy development.

Classroom Resources

Supplies and materials so teachers can focus on what matters most.
