It is hard to believe that we are already nearing the last month of school! This year has been unique in so many ways – COVID, virtual school, ice storm and so much more! We are excited to celebrate our students with a drive through celebration where they will receive treats.
In just 1 week, we’ll kick off our LEOPARD DANCE FIT on Wed, April 7th! Our goal is to raise $10,000 for Technology upgrades, Computer carts, Smart Boards and to strengthen our school community. This year more than ever, we need additional funds to provide an excellent educational experience for all of our students. We completely understand if your family is not in a position to financially support the school right now. You can still be involved by simply SHARING about our fundraiser with friends and extended family online at funrun.com. Sharing IS supporting! All students will participate in the LEOPARD DANCE FIT, regardless of financial participation. We will also be following our school safety guidelines to ensure a safe and fun experience for everyone.
We appreciate your support more than you know. More details to come as we get closer to kickoff!
Additional Sweepstakes prizes! On funrun.com, students/parents can complete different activities throughout the program to be entered into a sweepstakes to win several amazing prizes! At the end of the program, our tech team will select the winners at random to win the sweepstakes prizes, and I will email you the winners’ names!
Key dates to remember:
