Boosterthon
This year's main fundraiser is Castle Quest, a 9-day program that kicks off with a pep rally on November 14. Families will then gather pledges for every lap your student runs (30-35 laps). The Fun Run will be held on November 29th. We have asked the Fun Run experts at Boosterthon to power our run to help us reach our $25,000 goal.
Our theme, Castle Quest, is an English castle theme all about being brave and living with character. On their quest to regain Bravemore Castle, students will learn the "six virtues of a true hero" from a cast of colorful characters.
All donations will go toward funding the 9-day experience and other PTA events and programs for the year. You can help our school by reaching out for sponsors for your child. We thank you for your support!
