Can you believe it? Walk-A-Thon week is here! Our event schedule has been adjusted in order to accommodate recess periods. Students will be walking/running laps outside for 25 minutes this Friday, September 29th. Grade levels will participate during designated times for each grade. Grades PK-4th will be assigned a time between 8:45-10:15, while grades 5th-8th will participate between 1:00-3:00. Other events that had been scheduled will now take place during PE the week of October 2nd.

With your help and generosity, we have raised over $22,000 so far! You can still register and help us meet our goals. Please see the attached flyers for more information and to register today! Fundraising runs through Friday, October 6th.

For our Walk-A-Thon this year, we're using an awesome web based fundraising system that makes it much easier for you to request pledges from your family and friends, and for them to make secure credit card donations online. It's fun, it's easy, and people who use it typically raise twice as much as those who don't! Remember, our Walk-A-Thon is September 29th, so please register now to help our school raise as much as we can for new PE equipment, new volleyball standards, gymnasium wall padding, and supporting the Volleyball, Soccer, and Basketball teams.
