Where does your money go?
The Boise Braves Parents fund raise to support the Boise High School community. We do this by providing funds to school programs which are not otherwise supported through the Boise School District. These include funds for the Character Education program, MAC (Math Assistance Center), a Student Assistance fund to help students who struggle financially, academic awards, and through a grant award process to support the 3A’s of Boise High, Academics, Athletics and Activities.

How are funds granted to the 3 A’s?
Each year the Boise Brave Parents notifiy all faculty members and coaches of our granting timeline, through the administration and the Brave Weekly. Faculty members and coaches must submit a grant application to apply for funding. A subcommittee reviews each application to verify need and determine the best use of funds to benefit the majority of BHS student body in each of the 3 A’s. The final recommendations are then sent to the board for final decision.
Where does this money come from?
It comes from generous members, donors, alumni, faculty and parents just like you! Parents and the Boise Brave Parent Board raise these funds through membership and special events.
