Boosterthon News!

Hey Parents!!

I am sure you have heard about the Boosterthon Pep Rally and the Booster-team, super cool guys who are visiting our classrooms handing out prizes!! But, the Boosterthon is a fundraiser for our school. It has raised a lot of money in the past, and we desperately need funds now! Basically, your child will get pledges for the number of laps they run. Most children run 30-35 laps, so a pledge of $1 will end up being approximately $35. (It is not our normal track, but a smaller one set up on the baseball fields.) Or, you may collect flat donations instead of pledges.

In addition to the individual prizes your child receives from the Booster-team, we have class goals. The kids helped me come up with these so they are super excited! If the class has the amounts below pledged, they get these prizes…

· $10—Show and Tell

· $20—Dress the Teacher…they get to bring silly items (hats, scarves, sunglasses, etc.) for me to put on to take a picture. J

· $30—Movie Day!

· $40—Game Day… afternoon only J

· $50—Picnic Lunch outside

· $70—Extra Free Play Time

· $90—Make a silly class DVD to travel like a take-home book

· $110—Ice Cream Party

· $130—Mr. Kelley will bring Mickey Mouse (Neal Thomas’ miniature horse) for pony rides!!!! JJJJ

As you can imagine, the kids are super excited about this fundraiser. Please help them call family and friends in order to get pledges. All money will be collected the week after spring break…that should give your family and friends plenty of time to send in their commitments.

Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks for your support!
