Boosterthon Fundraiser
We are less than one week away from kicking off the Orchard Park Fun Run! Next Wednesday, October 3rd our 2-week fundraising program will begin, and we are so excited! We’ll start with a Pep Rally and then your family will have time to get pledges.
At the end of the event, every student will participate in the Orchard Park Fun Run! This year, our goal is to raise $35,000 for “STEAM Dreams” and we need YOUR help! Please begin thinking about friends and family who could pledge your student for the Orchard Park Fun Run. We want this to be fun and easy for everyone, so think of others who can support your student as they run laps to help our school.
Look for a Pledge Book to come home on Wednesday, October 3rd with more information. And don’t forget to save the Fun Run Date—Friday, October 12th—on your calendar. You’re invited to come out and cheer on our students! More details to come. Thank you for supporting Orchard Park Elementary.
Join us for our October PTO meeting
We'll have two meeting times: Tuesday, October 9 at 7:10 am in the OPES cafeteria and 6:30 pm in the OPES library.
Get ready to decorate!
