Julian Curtiss Fun Run Fundraiser
Our Fun Run Fundraiser Starts Next Week!!
We are excited to kick off our Julian Curtiss Fun Run fundraiser on Tuesday, 3/30. Our goal is to raise $10,000 for resources to enhance learning in this unique year and to strengthen our school community.
Our school has always relied on fundraising to provide exceptional opportunities to enhance student learning. And this year, we have more needs than we’ve ever had before, which means we need your support more than ever.
We completely understand if your family is not in a position to financially support the school right now. You can still be involved by simply SHARING about our fundraiser with friends and extended family online at funrun.com. Sharing IS supporting!
Just as we worked to safely begin school this year, we are also safely hosting this essential fundraiser based on our school’s current guidelines. We can't wait to get started!!
