Mrs. Walters' News
Next Friday is the 8th annual BEARS on the RUN! This walk-a-thon is PTO's major fundraiser for the year, with all money going directly to Bushnell for special activities and materials. Pledge money is due September 25 in order to be eligible for prizes.
We still need volunteers for our walk and activities during the week. If you can volunteer any time, please sign here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090945aaad2daafc1-bears
Our PTO has collected many fun raffle prizes for students who participate in fund-raising.
These include:
· Principal for the Morning
· Bikes
· Griffins Hockey tickets
· Passes for 10 to Grand Rapids Gymnastics
· Sports Camps
· and much more!!!
Top grade level classrooms and high-pledge students will also earn a special activity and pizza lunch. If we meet our goal of $7,100 ($25 per student) students will get to cover me in something silly during our afternoon assembly on Sept. 27.
Thanks in advance for your participation and support!
The PTO is always looking for more help. Please consider reaching out to bushnellccepto@gmail.com to let them know you are available. Specifically, they need planners for conference meals, planners for popcorn volunteers, and other jobs big and small. Thank you in advance for your support!
