We are winding down our Kids Heart Challenge which will end on Monday, February 12th
Each individual student will receive a Dunk Tank ticket and a Pie-In-the Face ticket for every $50 they raised. Mr. Heiser will spend a night up on the roof for raising $12000. AND Our school has received a banner for being one of the top fundraising schools in the state of South Dakota. Attached is a photo of the gymnasium set up for the GLOW party today. Our current amount is $15,567. Can we break the record of over $17,000?
The PTO meeting for February 7th has been postponed and moved to Friday, February 9th from 12:00-1:00. Hope to see yo then!
Jefferson Families,
You have far exceeded our fundraising expectations. As of today, our school has raised $6459. We have met our goal of $5000 which means students have earned a GLOW PARTY during PE.
BUT, Mr. Heiser and I thought we would extend a new challenge to students. We set a new goal of $7000, we will add the Dunk Tank at our End-of-year picnic. For every $50 a student raises, they will receive a dunk-tank ticket, meaning they get a throw at the target to dunk Mr. Heiser, myself, or special guests.
BUT wait, if we raise $9000, students will receive pie-tickets for every $50 raised. Meaning students will get a ticket to throw a pie in Mr. Heiser, myself or a special guest at an all -school assembly. WE CAN DO IT.
Please register, send out those text and e-mails, take Finn's challenge. Thank you for supporting this great cause!
