All kids make mistakes. Let's help them learn.

When students at Anderson make a mistake, we get to help them learn from it. These are opportunities to help kids grow and improve. If your student brings home a blue Reflection Sheet, it means they are learning and we want to make sure you, as parents/guardians, are aware and can help them learn from a mistake. Click below and watch Mr. Jarot explain what a Reflection Sheet is all about.

PTO Donations

The PTO depends on help from ALL our families to create a fun and memorable experience for ALL students throughout the year. This year, as an added incentive, every family that pays their donation will receive a punch card for one free snack, for each family member, at each of our monthly events.


If you have already paid your $25 donation through Push Coin, thank you! If you still need to do here is how to do it:

• Log into your Push Coin account from the D303 or Anderson web page.

• Under your child’s name/picture click on the “Web Store” link. From there you will see a list of all district fees. Scroll down to “Anderson 2022-2023 PTO” and add to cart. (Note: the same fees will show up for all your children registered but we do not expect you to donate $25 for each child. Although, we won’t stop you if you want to donate more ☺)

Market Day

Did you know Market Day is back? One Awesome Change…. they are making it easier for our schools to raise funds by offering direct delivery of all orders to homes and business locations. All orders are shipped via FedEx and UPS and packed in a reusable cooler with dry ice to ensure your order remains frozen throughout the shipping process and arrival at your front door. To order simply go to www.marketdaylocal.com.

Other Ways to Support Our School

We’re very excited to share that our school is part of the Coca-Cola Give program and Amazon Smiles. What is exciting about these two programs is that there is NO out of pocket cost to you! We simply ask that you enter your Coca-Cola product codes at: https://us.coca-cola.com/give/schools/ and our school will receive a donation. Want to learn more about the program, please check it out at Coke.com/give.

Like to shop on Amazon? Support Anderson Elementary by going to smile.amazon.com. AmazonSmile is the same Amazon you know with the same products, prices and services except they will donate 0.5% of the price of your eligible purchase to the school. While you are sipping on your Coca-Cola product and shopping at Amazon, please consider participating in these two great programs.
