A huge shoutout to all our amazing Explorer Families for your incredible support during our Glow Run PTO fundraiser last week! Mrs. Whelan, you're a rockstar for coordinating and organizing such a fantastic event, and our dedicated PTO members and staff deserve a round of applause for their hard work in setting up and cleaning up. It was great to see so many family members cheering on their kids as they ran during their PE time.
Together, we raised an impressive $13,468! This money will go directly towards supporting our students and teachers, enriching their learning experiences and enhancing our school.
As a special reward, the entire school will get to enjoy a fun-filled Bingo session during their library time one day in May! Huge thanks to Mrs. Karber and Ms. Valek for making this activity possible.
Due to some close totals, we've extended the reward for top earners to 9 students. These lucky individuals will be treated to a delicious lunch at Pizza Ranch with Mr. Hollas and Mrs. Schrader. Congratulations, you've earned it!
Once again, thank you, Explorer Families, for your incredible support and dedication to our school community.
Mr. Hollas
