Happy Friday! We had a great week! Today we had our Step-a-thon Pep session to get the students excited about our upcoming Step-a-thon which is happening next Friday. Students will have an opportunity to complete a great obstacle course during their assigned time. Students should wear gym appropriate tennis shoes, shorts and a coat of sunscreen. We want to encourage all students to get pledges for the Step-a-thon. This is our largest fundraiser which covers the cost of all field trips (off campus and on campus), holiday gifts for the classrooms, class supply reimbursement for every teacher and other initiatives that support White Lick students and staff. Our volunteers have already raised $3,550 from corporate sponsors. We are off to a great start! Every student and staff member will be given a Step-a-thon t-shirt next Friday for our event. The t-shirt will then be used throughout the school year to help identify our White Lick students at field trips, during homecoming, spirit days and for our end of the year Survivor Challenge. We want to remind students that they should be asking family and friends for the donations. We do not want students going door-to-door asking people that they do not know for donations.
Have a great long weekend!
Mrs. Susan Wise
