APEX Remix
Thank you for your support of Sunset Valley Elementary and the investments you make in your children’s lives. We are so excited to announce that our school will be participating in the Apex Leadership Co. program again as our major PTA fundraiser for the year! The program will last for 2 weeks and will kick off with a Pep Rally on Monday, November 12th at 1:45pm. Please look for your child's Apex Pledge Kit they will receive on that day and for e-mails coming from your teachers. Our fundraiser will begin on MONDAY, November 12 and end on November 30. The Thanksgiving break will help ALL of our families gather even more pledges and flat donations.
During the program, students are challenged to get pledges for the fitness moves they will complete on Friday, November 30th in the gym. Students will participate for 30 minutes and will complete an average of 26-36 fit moves. The maximum amount of fitness moves recorded is 36. Through Apex’s online pledging system, sponsors can pledge per fit move or any flat donation amount for students and can pledge from anywhere in the world!
This year, our goal is to raise $15,000 or more so that we can purchase Chromebooks and classroom libraries. As a campus, we would love to put enough computers in every classroom so that every child has access. We would also like to provide additional books for every teacher's classroom library. Many of these books would also be sent home so that you can read even more with your child.
