We are excited to announce that our Boosterthon Fun Run is coming soon! This is our main fundraiser of the year, and it’s an exciting way for students to build character, stay active, and support our school.
This year’s program, Star Quest 5, combines a fun fitness event with meaningful character lessons focused on curiosity, courage, teamwork, resilience, and humility. Our goal is to raise $20,000 to support school projects and student and staff incentives.
How it works:
Families will gather donations through MyBooster.com by sharing your student’s personal fundraising page with friends and family. Every share truly makes a difference!
🎩 Hat Day Incentive!
Students who sign up at MyBooster.com during the week of January 12 will earn a Hat Day as a special schoolwide incentive. More details will be shared with students as we kick things off!
Key Dates to Remember:
• Boosterthon Kickoff at School: January 29
