Linwood Howe Elementary has a new community partner and it’s a really big deal, school officials say.
Culver Studios has stepped away from the spotlight to take on a new scholarly mantle.
Located in the school’s backyard, the Culver Studios sponsored a three-year movie license so the school can freely show movies to its students during Family Fun Night, Field Day, and rain days.
In addition, the Studios hosted Lin Howe’s 3rd graders for a tour as part of their Culver City History project, and a screening for the students who earned the most pledges during our PTA Leap-A-Thon fundraiser.
For this coming year, the Studios will be providing back-to-school supplies for every student.
They have also pledged sponsorship of Linwood Howe’s float for the Sept. 24 Centennial kick-off parade. This includes a financial contribution, plus volunteer support to help build our float.
“The Culver Studios is a place where creativity, passion and commitment to quality thrive,” said Michael Goldfarb, Director of Business Development & Strategic Planning for The Culver Studios. “It is a pleasure to support our neighbor and friend, Lin Howe, which instills these qualities in their students on a daily basis.”
School officials say it’s a thumbs-up partnership: “Thank you for your generosity, Culver Studios!”
