Grif Fun Run Fundraiser & Color Run Celebration
The Grif Fun Run is our Spring Fitness FUNdraiser that is taking place now through February 16th. On February 16th, students will compete at the Grif Fun Run by grade level, then all partake in a Color Run Celebration that families can attend! Sign up here to create an account and start sharing with family and friends!
Our FUNdraiser goal is $25K that will fund our Teacher Grant Program. All of your support will go directly back to our classrooms and students! Our goal per student is $100. Individual prizes will be awarded the week of February 12th. You and your family/friends can donate flat donations directly through Givebutter (see attached flyer). Note, a plain white shirt will be given to each student for the color run. Any questions please email griffunrun@mgepta.org.
Thursday is the Last Day to Purchase a Yard Sign
