IMPORTANT CHANGE; Pizza will not be available until October AND pizza this year will be on Thursdays, NOT Fridays. Sarah went in and made the necessary changes to our Sept. menu.

This fundraiser is the only mandatory fundraiser for SHCS and its success is a tremendous example of how SHCS families and staff pull together to accomplish our goals. Our goal is for EVERY student to bring in the required $300 fundraising goal for the Marathon. The Marathon is also a celebration and a chance for people to come together. We have fun walking, running or biking. All funds remain here at Sacred Heart and they are used to offset the rising costs of providing a quality education. So if you are asked, “Where does the money go?” It truly goes to support every part of our mission.
Please remember that we are no longer doing our Read-a-thon fundraiser. We are counting on EACH student bringing in $300 worth of pledges for our marathon.
