Last week your child received information about our schools annual Spell-a-thon. This week you will need to watch your email for personalized instructions from Rally Up for the shareable link for this fundraiser. This is meant to make your part very easy! Share the link on social media, text message, or create your own QR code to get pledges for your child.

We are trying to be as eco-friendly as possible with the move to digital platforms, and this is no different! What easier way than to just share your child's personalized story and link with friends, family members and anyone else you choose! See below for extra details!
