Spring Fun Run (-n-Roll)!

Looking for an alternative to traditional, merchandise-based fundraising? The PTO's Spring Fun Run is our answer!  Your elementary school students get movin’ for their health and to raise money to help fund new technology and books in their classrooms. Students will walk, jog, run, and we'll even see some wheel-chairs burnin' rubber around our track for about 30 minutes.

School fundraising page coming soon!
Fundraising for the PTO's 2019 Spring Fun Run will kick off during the week after Spring Break
Kickoff assemblies will be April 1st (Luce) and 2nd (Hillcrest & Pine).  At the assembly, the importance of healthy lifestyles and teamwork will be highlighted as important in life AND in this fundraiser/fun run; and of course, the students will see and hear about the fun run prizes. Information flyers will be sent home to families.

You can click on the orange button above to visit our school's fundraising page.  Our Facebook page contains live-action updates - check in regularly to stay on top of things!  Check in regularly!

The Spring PTO Fun Run is a very important, fun and healthy way to raise money for the Alma Elementary Schools!  No selling is involved, and about 90% of the profits will go to benefit out elementary school students through the PTO.

This is our ONLY major fundraiser of the year.  Funds are used to pay for field trips, author visits, programs like science alive, and so many more things that your children enjoy, while promoting a healthy lifestyle to our students and the community.

o   Please help us accomplish our goals by helping your child raise a total of $50.00 in pledge donations.

o   It’s easy! Just help your child gather five $10.00 flat pledges or more.
