WELCOME
2025-26 School Year
Direct Donation
We are thrilled to receive your generous donation! Your amazing support helps students need, elevates graduation events, and brings joy to our incredible CSHS teachers and staff with meals, gifts, and treats throughout the school year. Together, we’re making a fantastic impact and creating vibrant, nurturing environment for everyone at CSHS. Thank you being a vital part of this journey!
Pay it Forward for the Class of 2026
As families of freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, we have a special opportunity to once again pay it forward and show our support for the Class of 2026 and their families.
Each year, as part of the Falcon Farewell Graduation Party, the CSHS PTO provides seniors with raffle tickets so they have the chance to win items they want and need as they prepare for life beyond Cactus Shadows. Senior year is exciting, but it is also a costly season for many families, and this is one meaningful way we can help.
We invite you to support this tradition by shopping the Falcon Farewell Amazon Wish List. There are items at every price point, including gift cards, dorm and apartment essentials like sheets and towels, small appliances, and more.

This is also a great opportunity to regift. If you have new items at home, PTO would be happy to put them to good use. Items can be dropped off in the CSHS front office.
