Mustang Gallop

Who: K-5


When: March 5, 2024; Classes will be assigned a time. 


Why: This fundraiser gives students a chance to practice the character trait of "caring." Students will help raise money to help support their school. This year, students are raising money to upgrade the elementary music instruments as well as support technology upgrades. 


Where: Fields in the back of the school are set up in 3 tracks.


How: Students will go outside with their class at the designated time. They will have a fun class picture taken, "gallop" laps around a track while earning donations from friends and family, and finish with a treat before returning to class. Parents are encouraged to volunteer or come as spectators to cheer on our Mustangs! The top 4 earners will win exciting prizes and all students who raise $25 or more will receive a goody bag. Follow the links to register and donate today!!!
