Zombie Dash Early T-shirt Order Forms Due Friday!
The Zombie Dash fundraiser is in full swing! We have many sponsors donating prizes and they have also donated over $1,000! Now, it is up to our families to make this fundraiser a truly special event!
The first $20 a student raises gets a Zombie Dash t-shirt designed by one of our Art students! The deadline to submit the first $20.00 in pledges is Friday October 13. Students should also submit their t-shirt order ticket. Remember, we accept any t-shirt size, youth or adult! T-shirt tickets received by Friday, October 13 will result in the t-shirts being here on Zombie Dash day for students! Please send your child in with their pledges in their envelope along with their t-shirt ticket on Friday.
Missing a ticket or an envelope? No problem! We'll have extras to hand out during your child's period 1 class. Don't forget, send those pledges in on Friday. Checks should be made out to UMS PTSA
