A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for the Turkey Trot yesterday! We are so grateful to our amazing volunteers—this event wouldn’t have been possible without you. Families showed up in full force to cheer, and our students ran their hearts out. What an incredible day!

The PTA is tallying up all those lap cards—class winners will be announced soon! 

Fundraising Progress

We’re thrilled to share that we’ve raised $5,000 so far, which means the entire school has earned a Wacky Hair Day celebration! Stay tuned for details.

We’re currently at just over 70% of our $10,000 goal, and fundraising continues until November 30.

Let’s keep the momentum going!

  • The class that raises the most money will win a pizza party.
  • All Students who raise $20 will get a sticker 
  • All students who raise $150 will get a trip to the Thankful Treasure Box
