Here We Go!
Hello, Sunrise Middle School Families!
In October, we officially kicked off our Step It Up! Campaign. Step it Up! is projected to be our largest fundraiser of the school year and we couldn't do all of the amazing things we have planned for our school, our students, and our staff without YOU!
Many of you may have participated in the program at a previous school, and we are really looking forward to bringing it to SRMS. Don't want to participate in Step It Up! but would still like to give to the SRMS PTO directly? You can also complete a tax-deductible direct give by donating HERE at Zeffy!
The Step It Up! fundraising deadline has been extended to November 10th. Thank you for your continued support and thank you for helping us get this far! If you haven't been able to join us yet, now is the perfect time to help us reach our goals!
We were able to raise $267.94 for the SRMS Dance and Theatre Programs at our In-N-Out Dine Out Fundraiser. And we also raised $208.00 for the SRMS Dungeons and Dragons Club and Chess Club at our Barro's Pizza Dine Out Fundraiser.

Upcoming Dine-Out Fundraisers
What is a Dine-Out Fundraiser?
These fundraisers allow all of us to win! Companies give portions of the sales that are generated during one of our fundraisers to a specific program, club, or event at Sunrise Middle School... and there's one night where we don't have to think of what to cook or have any dishes to do! See below for the upcoming dine-out fundraisers and what programs at SRMS they are supporting. Thank you!
Hot Chicken Alley - Student Government (STUGO)
Student Government (STUGO) is hosting a dine-out fundraiser on Tuesday 11/5/24, from 10:30 AM to 9:00 PM, at Hot Chicken Alley. STUGO will receive 20% back of the total sales. You will need to let them know you are with Sunrise Middle School! Hot Chicken Alley is located at 13636 N. Tatum Blvd., Suite 10, Phoenix, AZ 85032. We will see you there!
