Dragon Dash Success—

Huge Thanks!

Last week’s Dragon Dash was an absolute triumph! Watching our PreK & Elementary Dragons tackle the obstacle course and our Middle Schoolers light up the Color Run was a wonderful reminder of how special our school community is.

Because of your generosity, dedication, and school spirit, we are well on our way to reaching our goal!


⏰ Important Upcoming Deadlines:

  • Sunday, Oct 11: All donations on MyBooster.com will close.
  • Monday, Oct 12: Deadline to place your student’s prize order in the Reward Store on MyBooster.com.


Reminder: We introduced a brand-new rewards program this year! Instead of standard daily trinkets, students earned progress toward picking rewards of their choice. Don't miss the deadline to select their prizes!

Because of YOU:

🎓 Teachers receive critical grants for tools like Minecraft Education, Beast Academy math, and ergonomic seating.

🌿 Our campus grows with upgrades to our greenhouse, outdoor classrooms, and active play spaces.

🎉 Our community stays connected with tradition-rich events like the Fall Festival, Winter Lights, and Middle School Socials.

☕ Our dedicated staff feels valued all year round with catered meals, coffee, and appreciation efforts.

A giant thank you to all our parent volunteers, teachers, and staff for making Dragon Dash possible.
